Bush, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush. Bush the Elder I met when he spoke at my University in 1988. I met Bill Clinton, the candidate, [...]

Well infidels, I have returned. I went to Virginia in mid October to get foliage photos. This is what greeted me yesterday morning....Virginia is not supposed to get snow until November. I was in a winter wonderland out there. Yep, I got my winter shots in October. That's global warming for [...]

Speech by President Teddy Roosevelt made at the Grand Canyon, Arizona, on May 6, 1903:
"In the Grand Canyon, Arizona has a natural wonder which, so far as I know, is in kind absolutely unparalleled throughout the rest of the world. I want to ask you to do one thing in connection with it in [...]

I would love for anyone on the left, especially the buttmunches like Rep. Grayson to tell me, under which provision of the U.S. Constitution does Congress have the power to mandate that individuals purchase health insurance?
Here's the text of the U.S. Constitution.
And while sadly, the bill being voted on in the Senate Finance Committee [...]

Just taking a break from the daily political crap. Here's a pic I took last week in midtown.
Happy Columbus Day. Of course I can't figure out how if his last name was Colon, how the heck did they end up with Columbus?

Interesting article in today's WSJ by Democrat Lanny Davis on the Honduras situation where he points out the idiocy of Obama and his Chavez dupes about their refusal to recognize the new freely elected government in Honduras following the November 2009 election:
What's made the situation even more intractable is that the U.S., the OAS and [...]

A fantastic article on the Tersites blog about Cuban Punk Rocker Gorky's trip and performance in NYC. This is very poignant:
La gente entró hasta llenar la sala. Enrisco, organizador del evento, hizo la presentación. GA comentó con sorna que Enrisco había escrito aquel texto en cinco minutos… lo cual explicaba todos sus errores. La gente [...]

Many times you hear El Presidente and the Congress saying that their Obamacare requirement that everyone have health insurance or pay a tax is like having auto insurance. Poor analogy Mcfly. Auto insurance requirements are regulated by the States. While the states may have the power to do this, not so fast when it comes [...]

Land Ruling - Rhodes v. Macdonald
As I've written in earlier posts, if you're gonna win the war, you cannot waste it by picking stupid battles wherein you're throwing rocks and bottles against targets of no significance. You have to use your heavy artillery and go after battles where we are right and have the [...]

It's Constitution Day infidels. The only thing I have sworn allegiance to in my life to protect. The document which became the backbone for our nation came to life in this Hall, during a scorching summer. It's brilliance is unmatched. It wasn't perfect; compromises had to be made. Amendments had to be added. But it's [...]

It's Labor Day and the only laboring I will be doing today will be behind a grill as I prepare my world famous brisket and my BBQ chicken (shicken if you're from Louisiana)

For a change of pace, here's a photo I took at Meteor Crater Arizona just outside Winslow (such a fine place to be).
As large as this crater is, it still isn't big enough to hold all of the bullcrap being spewed from the left today. Ciao Infidels, I'm outta here to smoke some [...]
