Seems like we had a vice president a few weeks ago. Didn’t she say something about being responsible for the decision to leave Afghanistan? I could have sworn I saw her on the wrong end of the Rio Grande talking about the border crisis not too long ago. Despite lying low, Harris’ approval ratings are falling. That’s great news for Joe Biden who’s continued time in office depends primarily now on the fact that Harris would succeed him. The American … Continue reading “Say, Has Anyone Seen Kamala Lately?”

We get it – no one wants to lose. No one would want to have their job taken by the person they brought on board – probably to prevent losing their job. No one wants to fail. And no one wants to have to admit that they can’t do the job anymore. We understand – we really do. Your party has been telling us for decades that they could provide the jobs we desperately need. Then telling us it wasn’t … Continue reading “Just Go, Joe”

Cuomo simply ignored the growing scandal and hoped it would blow over. For now, that appears to be what Biden is doing. That, or he’s taking another nap. CNN has been refreshingly strident – took nearly half the article before they started talking about the Republicans and the first four paragraphs are all about Biden and not a bit kind. Other left leaning outlets have also been critical. And least we forget the debacle of Brian Williams on MSNBC trying … Continue reading “The Andrew Cuomo School of Surviving Political Scandal”

Well, that was fast. I thought I’d be apologizing because Biden had returned to Washington by the time of my last post. You’ll forgive me for not counting his showing up, doing a ten minute statement and running back to Camp David as ‘returning’. At least he took time out from his important nap schedule to address the nation about a foreign policy crisis of his own making. Please do note the dripping sarcasm. But what everyone really wants to … Continue reading “Biden and the 25th Amendment”

Come home, Joe! Well, to be fair, according to Newsweek, Biden decided to cut short his Camp David vacation and return to Washington – hey, it’s only two days late! Well, technically, two days after ‘resuming’ his vacation – seriously, who can keep up with Joe’s nap schedule, anyway? It’s been an impressive eight months of screw ups – to that point that even the normally docile CNN is biting at Hiden’s heels. The only policy of Trump’s that Biden … Continue reading “President Who?”

The song that annoys me most has a catchy tune that I usually can’t get out of my head – but the lyrics infuriate me. The chorus tells a young soldier not to be a hero. Some practical advice about keeping his head low and a plea for him to return – not objectionable on their own. What woman doesn’t want her husband-to-be to return safely? The annoying part is she is so STUPID. She understands him enough to know … Continue reading “The Hero’s Journey – Your Own”

Who was that masked man? He was a Texas Ranger that was shot and nearly killed in an ambush. When he awoke, he was the only one left alive. His friends and his brother were all dead and he was fully aware that the ambush wasn’t happenstance. They had been set up – and he was the only one left. He was saved in most versions of the story by the assistance of an old friend, an Indian by the … Continue reading “The Hero’s Journey – Heigh Ho Silver!”

It’s not easy fitting the important stuff into normal life. Even if you’re a wise cracking genius with super powers – somehow, there’s always some crazed super villain out to blow up half the city just as you sit down to finish writing your term paper. Aunt May asks you to take out the trash and you end up spending the rest of the night trying to stop the rampage of a giant lizard man. Mary Jane FINALLY says yes … Continue reading “The Hero’s Journey – With Great Power”

All three of you who read my blog (a gal has to start somewhere! Thanks for your support!) will already know that I did not believe Cuomo would resign. While I get some satisfaction in that he only resigned because impeachment was imminent, I was simply wrong. Andrew Cuomo resigned today as governor of New York. From the Epoch Times: New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo Announces Resignation Over Harassment Allegations BY JACK PHILLIPS  August 10, 2021 Updated: August 10, 2021 New York … Continue reading “Cuomo Resigns”

I saw the original Star Wars on a gigantic screen in a movie theater in Montgomery, Alabama about a week after it first hit the theaters. I can’t swear to it, of course, but I’m convinced there were a lot of eyes rolling when Alec Guinness delivered that infamous line. We knew dang good and well that Obi-Wan had lied by omission and that ‘point of view’ didn’t justify it. Luke may have accepted it – at least he didn’t … Continue reading “The Hero’s Journey – From a Certain Point of View”
