It's really simple.

"Is Mitt Romney conservative enough? My answer is simple: Compared to Barack Obama?" Newt Gingrich.

Another Reason Not to Vote for Obama

Obama's aides say he has done more for the cause of gay rights than any president before him. Gay rights leaders "fervently want Obama re-elected." They say that he has ". . .done more for our community than anyone who has ever held his office."  That should be enough said.

You can't say that!

Our first graders can read about how Tommy has two daddies and that one family arrangement is just as good as another, but they can't say "sexy."

D'Avonte Meadows was suspended from Sable Elementary School in Aurora, Colorado for sexual harassment. D'Avonte is 6 years old. What did he do that was so awful?

He quoted a line from a song to one of his classmates: "I'm sexy and I know it." I don't know what we expect when companies bombard us with sex to sell their products, sit-coms are a continuous chain of sexual situations, music is full of sex, and even Disney movie characters spout off double entendres. This little boy is simply parroting what he daily hears. If we don't want our kids to talk about being sexy, perhaps we should begin to clean up our act in this country.

Does anybody, anywhere, have any common sense left?

Essie Award Time

Remember, the Essie is awarded for sheer stupidity. 

This Essie goes to triple recipients: Violet D'Mello and her husband and an unnamed parent/guardian. Violet and her husband went to a game preserve in South Africa for her 60th birthday. They were invited to "pet the cheetahs." They were assured they were tame -- but a wild animal is always a wild animal. At any rate, Violet and her husband petted the cheetahs. Then one of the cheetahs grabbed a little 8-year-old girl, and Violet tried to rescue the girl. Of course, the cheetahs turned on her, inflicting some pretty severe but not life-threatening injuries. Violet gets the Essie for assuming a wild animal wouldn't attack. But what about her husband? What do you suppose Mr. D'Mello was doing while Violet was being attacked? Did he yell for help? Did he grab a stick and try to beat off the beasts? No, he kept his camera going to record the moment for posterity. He gets the Essie for getting the film no matter what. And the unnamed parent/guardian of the little girl takes the cake. Sheer stupidity!

IRVING ISD WORSHIPS THE SWAMI.

I came across a photo in the newspaper recently that I found very disturbing. It is of a woman bowing before an icon of Swami Vivekananda at a celebration to mark his 150th birthday. Why is it disturbing? Because it took place at Singley Academy, a high school in the Irving ISD. Where is the ACLU????

AWWW - THEY'RE JUST PLAYING!

Todd Gitlin, Columbia University professor of journalism and author of Occupy Nation: The Roots, The Spirit and the Promise of Occupy Wall Street, said on the Fox News Channel that the Occupy Wall Street movement was "out of hibernation" in its May Day protests. He said these were "fun-loving" and "playful people." 


I suppose he was talking about the black-clad protesters in Seattle, Washington, who smashed windows and ran through traffic. Or maybe he was referring to the crowd in Oakland, California, where police had to resort to tear gas and flash-bang grenades to disperse them as they converged on officers attempting an arrest. Possibly he could mean the protesters who tried to force businesses to shut down for not observing calls for a "general strike." 


Gives a whole new meaning to fun-loving, doesn't it?

SURPRISE!

Obama announced yesterday that he supports same-sex marriage. As if we hadn't already figured that out. He said that he "evolved" to this place based on conversations with his own staff members, openly gay and lesbian service members, and conversations with his wife and daughters. Anybody else notice who's missing from that list? He obviously didn't ask God what He thought about it.
