Personal Responsibility

Here is another perfect example of the mind of the Democrats. In this case, a Congresswoman was mistreated "because she is black". It apparently had nothing to do with the fact that she avoided the metal detectors wearing no identification that she is a member of Congress, failed to stop after being called three times. She also apparently punched the officer as a "natural reaction".

Please . . .

Anyone wonder why the new York Times' Readership is Falling?

The New York Times seems to think that it is a recent development for CNN personnel to show their bias on an issue. Does the name Eason Jordan ring a bell?

You Have got to love this guy!

I am not sure anyone gives the downstream press agita like Antonin Scalia!

Luckily Sharon Stone didn't have any quarters . . .

They say you can't turn your head from your kids for five seconds and this story would seem to back that up. It would seem like it would take a little time for this boy to crawl up the toy chute, I won't comment on the parents as i have had some nighmarish experiences at Chuck E Cheese myself.

Be Careful Where You Shop

If you are at the mall with your daughter and you see Sharon Stone - my advice - walk the other way.

Charlie Sheen

After a while, you wonder why the press even cover these people whose only known expertise is an ability to effectively pretend (Lie is to harsh a word) so that we can believe for two hours (or 30 minutes) that they are someone else.

No Link

So much for the conventional wisdom that there was no link b/t Saddam and Osama...

Hey, when he's wrong I'll admit that too....

Port Disaster.

There WAS Election Fraud After All

Although I doubt Frank Clarkwould have had the guts to prosecute, but more than a year after the fact, there will be convictions of election fraud and tampering from the 2004 elections.

I know he's not terribly bright but . . .

Wouldn't you think someone would whisper to
Ted Kennedy that he might want to name his dog something other than "Splash"?

Sad Day for the Old Grey Lady

The New York Times sunk to a new low, even for "Mainstream Media". One of their reporters got front page placement for a story in which he quotes CIA officals, (breaking national security laws) saying that the President acted within the law. And the Times conveniently fails to poitn out - oh yeh, the reporter has a book deal. Whatever shred of credibility they had is gone for good.

NPR

I was interviewed for a piece on NPR this morning.

The CIA IS Like a Sieve

I hope there is a prosecutor that will go after the CIA leakers. This is getting ridiculous.

Good News for the Region

While this puts our job growth at 1/2 of the state's rate of growth, the fact that private employers added more jobs in Buffalo has got to be seen as good news, particularly since it happened concurrently with a reduction in public sector jobs.

Kruly Update

Yes - he was tried by an administrative law judge, and was removed from his position.

This is our solution?

Maybe my memory is foggy, but didn't Ken Kruly resign in the midst of a scandal to avoid prosecution?

Snowden For Senate

Bob McCarthy reports that Senate Majority Leader Joe Bruno is encouraging ick Snowden to run for the soon to be vacant Byron Brown seat.

There are few details, however I hear the evidence is the large number of dollar bills with Bruno's fingerprints found in Snowden's garter...

An Imperial Presidency ?

Fareed Zakaria shows that he is not much of a student of history. While characterizing the Bush Presidency as "Imperial" he shows little historical perspective. He compares Bush to Clinton, and seems to begrudgingly admit that Clinton too, traveled with a large entourage. Citing "conventional wisdom" he clais that Bush does not genuineky communicate with people, but that Clinton did. Not much reporting there.

There are few world leaders that have the stature of President Bush. Should he be admonished for not having heart to heart talks with Chirac? Hardly.

He is a forceful presence who seems to have deveoped strong ties with Fox, Blair, Howard and Berlusconi. He appears to have a strong record of communicating with Putin, Zedong and Sung.

Bush's style, if I had to characterize it is less PR person and more CEO. He is a "get down to business" type of guy who does not appear to relish the limelight or the soireees.

Imperial? Not the word I would choose.

A Step Too FAr

I don't have any interest in or opposition to casinos, eminent domain should not be used to take these people's homes.
