Ouch, one and a half stars

There was a time when people my age anxiously awaited every film that Will Farrell put out. Now I can't keep up with all of the sport themed movies he has made. It seems he might have lost some of his luster in this one. However, I will say, even a "bad" Will Farrell movie is better than many other comedies.

He did what!?

Remember yesterday when I said no one cares that Bloomberg is not going to run for president? Yeah well you care less about this story.

Ugh...I drive way too much for this

This can't go on forever...

can it?

Conservatives biggest fear

Is that John McCain was telling the truth here. I think it was an honest mistake, but it was pretty funny.

Can you say rigged?

What a complete joke. The Russians are starting to scare me...check that...they continue to scare me. I heard one theory that the Russian people put up with the political corruption because they actually like the idea of having a strong ruler with near absolute power. If that's true, are we in for another Cold War? Who will be on Russia's side on this one now that Communism is (for all intents and purposes) dead?

What a shame

This story speaks for itself. A guy who gasses thousands of his own countrymen...is the scum of the earth.

Prince Harry = Bada**

Sorry, but this guy is hard. When you think of princes you think of prissy type guys right? Not Prince Harry of England. He's third in line for the throne and he puts his life on the line in Afghanistan. That takes some cojones.

As far as any debate as to whether it was right or wrong to embargo the story of him being over there...I think the media actually acted in a responsible manner here. I'm glad they didn't run the story. I'm glad he got a chance to do what he had been trained to do. I have so much respect for those who serve their countries honorably. Prince Henry is now added to that list.

Call me paranoid but...

I really don't like all of the vaccinations and shots that the government and doctors are recommending for young kids. I don't even like taking OTC medicine when I'm sick. But the whole injecting viruses into kids at a young age thing is not appealing to me. The government is now highly recommending that kids aged 6 months to 18 years get flu shots every year. I never get my flu shot and yeah, sometimes I get the flu. I'm just glad the government hasn't started mandating flu shots. That's when we know something is really wrong. I don't like the government mandating anything dealing with my body.

He calls them "The Final Days"

Howard Kurtz, a columnist for the Washington Post, says it's almost over for Hillary Clinton. An entertaining column that spans liberal and conservative viewpoints.

Securing border costs $$$...duh

Did anyone think securing the southern border of the USA would be cheap or free? My guess is no. Now our government is saying it might be really expensive to secure the border properly. Yeah, it probably will be expensive and your point is? It can cost us billions and billions and the American people will not care. They want the border secured, bottom line.

If you're a conservative...

You admired William F. Buckley Jr...If you aren't a conservative you should have admired William F. Buckley Jr. if for no other reason than he was incredibly bright and he was not mean spirited like so many on the left tend to brand right leaning people. As President Bush said, "America has lost one of its finest writers and thinkers".

Bloomberg is out

Michael Bloomberg isn't running for president...does anyone care? I don't.
