I always enjoy the parade of nations that hate the U.S. Isn’t it nice?” – David Letterman “The Winter Olympics are under way in Canada. Skiing, snowboarding, ice-skating, these are […]
“It’s Presidents’ Day, ladies and gentlemen. Three-day weekend for most people. Remember President George Bush?

© Lee Judge Why in the world was losing one senator such a terrible blow to the Democrats? Yes, they no longer have a “supermajority” in the Senate, and thus cannot automatically stop filibusters. But they still have a majority in the Senate, a majority in the House, not to mention the presidency. Isn’t that […]
“The big blizzard hit the East Coast. Washington, D.C., probably hit hardest of all. Two storms, back-to-back. The bad news is Washington, D.C., is entirely shut down. The good news is Washington, D.C., is entirely shut down.” – David Letterman “Celebrity birthday. Happy birthday to Sarah Palin, who is 46 years old today. And you […]

© Lee Judge The NY Times has a funny article “Washington Shivers, Moscow Laughs” about Russian sympathies (or lack thereof) toward the big blizzard that has shut down DC and large parts of the east coast.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: How hypocritical is it when you’re hypocritical about your own hypocrisy? Watch the Republicans at the annual Republican National Committee strategy meeting put their core American values on display and get in touch with American’s pain — in Hawaii:
