He invented the Internet! He reinvented Himself! Now he has invented Algore TV! If you love watching test patterns you’ll really love the nonstop excitement of Algore TV. Its al Gore al the time! Every segment promises to be only seven minutes long to cater to the short attention spans of today’s “yutes”. It will be just like fun size candy bars. Algore himself said that he will not concern himself with mundane things like ratings or viewer interests. That’s because THERE WO...

President Bush today used a recess appointment to install John Bolton as Ambassador to the United Nations. The Senate Democrats had been using stalling tactics to indefinitely delay his confirmation. There were enough votes in the Senate to confirm him if it were not for the underhanded tactics of the Democrats. President Bush was right in putting Bolton in his rightful place at the UN. Senate Democrats obviously were not at all pleased by the move. Harry Reid of Nevada the Sena...

Recently I was diagnosed with Adult Attention deficit disorder or ADHD. I have trouble paying attention to what I should be, and overly concentrate on my own thoughts or other things that are going on around me. Looking back I know I’ve had this problem my entire life. I have no idea what caused it. Perhaps it was from watching too much Sesame Street and Electric Company when I was a kid? In school it was very difficult to listen to the teacher with my mind constantly on ot...

According to USA Today, NASA is suspending all shuttle launches until the problem with the foam surrounding the main fuel tank can be corrected. This was the cause of the Space shuttle Columbia disaster, and has also endangered the current Discovery Mission. A peace of foam was photographed shearing off during the Discovery liftoff and astronauts are checking the shuttle for damage. NASA has used foam to insulate the large rocket booster without incident since the beginning of the Shuttle ...

Newsmax is running a story today: Leftists Blast 'Centrist' Hillary Clinton Hillary Clinton has drawn a sharp rebuke from the left after giving a speech urging Democratic Party solidarity - a move seen by many as a sell-out of the party's liberal wing. The senator from New York unexpectedly found herself under attack for her speech at the centrist Democratic Leadership Council's annual convention in Columbus, Ohio, in which she called for a truce among the party's quarreling faction...

Senator Patrick "Leaky" Leahy said he would vote against Judge Roberts if he does not pass his litmus test on abortion. "Just as you would not have a justice nominee who said, `Well I wouldn't consider Brown vs. Board of Education settled law,' I don't see how they could get confirmed," Leahy said. "I don't see how somebody who said that they didn't consider Roe vs. Wade settled law ... I don't see how they get confirmed." In other words to Senator Leahy opposing abortion is on the same l...

I’m sure this same scenario is present in many large companies. However, one in particular has gone from being an industry leader to an industry loser. How did it happen and what is this company’s future? I am not going to name the company because the principles that have caused this company’s woes are not unique to just one corporation. I will just call it the "Widget Company". There was a time when the Widget Company was at the top of the industry. It was a great company for custo...

From the Drudge Report... President Bush has chosen federal appeals court judge John Roberts, 50, as his nominee to the Supreme Court... Roberts: 'We continue to believe that Roe v. Wade was wrongly decided and should be overruled'...'YOUTH, INTELLECT, TEMPERAMENT, JUDICIAL PHILOSOPHY'... ABORTION WAR AFTER BUSH PICKS... ROBERTS I am absolutely stoked. I was so worried that President Bush would pick someone who would be an easy confirm just to avoid the battle. President Bush has not l...

They call it the Parade of Homes . It’s where we, not so well off folks get a chance to peek into the homes of rich people. They open their homes (for a nominal fee) and allow us less fortunate souls to enter their world and see what we are all missing. My wife has been going to these for the last few years and this year she decided I was going too. We went into the first home. It was very nice and very well furnished and immaculately clean. Of course we being the great unwashed...

Isn't That Where Grandma Used To Live? In the Kelo Vs. The City of New London case, the Supreme Court geezers voted 5-4 to turn property rights in this country on its head. Conservatives along with Liberals are all condemning the ruling. It gives municipalities pretty much cart-blanche in seizing property from anyone for any reason, as long as it increases the tax base. That is all that is required to satisfy the new interpretation of “public good”. The Constitution does allo...

Once again the Congressional Democrats, and the press are showing selective indignation with their hand ringing and howls of protest demanding the head of Karl Rove. This all stems from the Valerie Plame CIA investigation. Once again Democrats are pointing fingers at the Republicans while completely excusing and even defending those on their side who have engaged in much worse leaking with much greater consequences. Leaking information is Democrat's favorite pastime. They constantly use it t...

DNA tests have confirmed in a stunning new development that Senator Hillary Rhodham Clinton is in fact the mother of Alfred E. Newman, spokesman for MAD magazine. It is unknown who the father is but many have speculated that Hillary once had an affair with longtime Nightline Host Ted Koppel. Some have even suggested the father could be none other that Prince Charles. It is unknown weather DNA tests on Koppel or the Prince have occurred. Calls to Senator Clinton have not been returned ...

You can never find God through science. People who try usually become atheists. God requires that we first have faith then he will reveal himself bit by bit in his own time. God created the heavens and the Earth in a manner that would not prove his existence. His plan requires that we live by faith and not just have it all given to us without it. This runs counter to the scientific method were proof is required first. This causes many scientists to dismiss God in a very unscientific manner. I...
