MSNBC “Oddball” to Spare U.S. Senate

With mostly bad news rolling in from Washington, D.C., these days, a small ray of sunshine managed to spike through the black clouds hovering over the U.S. Senate, thereby delivering a glimmer of hope for better days ahead.

Chaos in the U.S. Senate: Senator Al Franken? Roland Burris Not?

Satire Everyone knows that the Democrat Party is comprised of lairs, crooks, and near crooks, all suffering from various degree of mental insanity. That is to be expected of anyone who dabbles in liberalism, the root of all insanity in the galaxy. However, Democrats have not, until now, been known as particularly stupid beings. Yes, their policies are mindless nonsense, but most liberals are capable of complex multi-tasking.

Joe Biden Denied Admittance to Theater: Influence Already in Decline?

Vice-president elect Joe Biden probably figured that his new job with the government entitled him to all of life's perks and pleasures.

Obama’s Non-intelligent Choice for CIA

By nominating Leon Panetta to head the CIA, President-elect Barack Obama has confirmed fears that he, and Democrats in general, are not capable of applying sufficient priority to the war on terror and national security because they simply do not understand the gravity involved.

Why Is Bernie Madoff Not In Jail?

A cliché commonly used when discussing justice in America is,"You do the crime, you must do the time."

How Do You Say, “Pay for Play” In Spanish?

Another day, another Democrat caught up in a national scandal. That hardly warrants "breaking news" these days.

A Triangulated Solution to Global Warming and Homelessness

Satire How completely liberal-hypocritical of Al Gore to fly out to Hollywood a couple of years ago just to accept an Oscar for saving the planet from whatever he was supposed to save it from. After accepting his statue and preaching "Think Green" to a sinful world, the bloated former Veep then jumped on another jet and zipped back to Nashville, Tennessee.

Is Barack Obama Planning to Invade Illinois?

Satire Vice-president elect Joe Biden tried to warn America of the dangers that would inevitably accompany an Obama administration into power.

Another “Blago-eruption?” Egad, This Is Exciting!

Satire Governor Rod Blagojevich may be a vulgar, "F-word" addicted wretch, vile and corrupt in all manner before man and God, and a dirty, rotten scoundrel to boot. However, nobody can accuse Blagojevich of being tepid, reserved, or backward. This man has a flare for the dramatic and for subtle comedy, essential skills in the cutthroat jungle known as Illinois politics, AKA, mobster relationship management.

“Disproportional” Force? Nothing Else Makes Sense!

With the expiration of the cease fire truce between Hamas and Israel, rocket attacks against southern Israel have intensified and threatened to engulf the region in all out war.

Are You Mindless Enough to Be a Liberal?

With a new Congress and leftist president due to assume power in a matter of weeks, many otherwise rational and patriotic Americans are undecided between suicide and becoming a liberal. Such people should consider the inconsistency and irrational thinking needed to embrace the liberal agenda:

“Sweet” Caroline

When John F. Kennedy was but 43 years of age, he managed to win the presidency of the United States, assisted by a highly suspect vote count sent in from Cook County run by and for Mayor Richard Daley of Chicago.

All I Want for Christmas Is—

My two front teeth are doing quite well, thank you.

Hugo Chavez Mauls Mall in Venezuela

- Satire The entire world knows that Hugo Chavez is a despicable, loathsome fascist who cavorts with the likes of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the Castro brothers, and various and sundry scalawags from Russia.

It is NOT About a Jolly Old Man in Red, Crowded Malls, & Maxed Out Credit Cards

Progressives who continue to work for the total secularization of Christmas fail to accept the true meaning of the most cherished religious holiday in western culture.

Myopic Vision, Greed Doom Auto Workers

When labor unions were originally established in America, they provided blue collar workers with the much needed ability to level the playing field with corporate moguls who worshipped the bottom line, but who had little or no regard for those whose sweat made corporate profits possible.

Rod Blagojevich Dumps Lump of Coal in Obama’s Stocking

Illinois politicians, and especially President-elect Obama, were hoping that embattled Governor Rod Blagojevich would go quietly into the night, taking his countless "F" bombs and wiretapped "pay to play" call list with him. Just a week ago, it seemed highly likely that Blagojevich would spend Christmas strapped to a guerney in a psychiatric ward, in jail, or at home with his family after abruptly yielding to heavy demands that he resign. Those hopes were dashed when the Illinois Supreme Court refused to unplug this foul-mouthed bag of unruly hair, and the impeachment process stalled somewhat in the Illinois legislature.

“Buyers Remorse” Haunts Obama

Barack Obama's position on same-sex marriage is, and has always been, crystal clear: He believes that marriage should be limited to one man and woman. That has been his public position from the start of the presidential campaign. Why, then, did gays vote so overwhelmingly for the man whose position is the antithesis of their own?

Arnold Terminates Democrat Scheme to Raise Taxes

For a couple of hours Thursday afternoon, gooey-eyed Democrats thought they had devised a clever scheme to side step California's Constitution, which requires that tax increases must be approved by two-thirds of the state legislature.

Joy to the World! or Christmasphobia?

Satire By John W. Lillpop In my opinion, Christmas should be a time of great joy and good will. People everywhere should be caught up in the "Christmas Spirit!"
