In the days since the Arizona shootings I have sat quietly–a rarity, and tried to put into perspective the tone of the political discourse continuatio in, unfortunately unabated, that has contributed to the burgeoning maelstrom of furious, but cross-eyed, navel-gazing. If it is true that both sides of the American political divide are, at some [...]
All I can tell you on this one is how absolutely deliriously delighted I am for the men, their families and loved ones of this almost disaster, turned huge success story. In a world of dead babies, murders, thefts, drugs, accidents, calamities and the like, this is one for the books. The world mining community [...]
We sat as we always did, across from one another at his desk. His arms folded above his head, wondering, thinking, about every observation I’d made in the previous six months, that he surely worried about. In this particular dawn meeting in the Prime Minister’s office, well before the arrival of Brian Mulroney (usually some [...]
There are just some things that you will NEVER read or hear in the mainstream press. Specifically, other than The National Post, the rest have completely missed the boat on the consistently unravelling narrative being promoted by the global warming alarmists. Se here, like manna from Heaven, is a wonderful example of how people like [...]
Did you hear about the huffy harridan from Chicago? No? Well, while the economy continues to tank in America, the ‘First Lady’, to demonstrate her glowing compassion, decided on a tax-paid, full-on European vacation to one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been to: Marbella, Spain. (Unless you are prepared to spend MAJOR dollars, don’t [...]
If you strip all the venom against someone so velvety arrogant (and perhaps with some cause), the case against Conrad Black, for me, has always been more about him than the law. In a 9-0 decision of the U.S. Supreme Court (including the Democrat appointed liberal law reviewers) Lord Black’s fate was changed in a [...]
The further slide in legitimacy of the climate change hucksters provides even more hilarity than watching my youngest try to explain why the half empty bag of Oreo Minis ended up in her sister’s closet–when she was the only one “playing” in that room for the last hour, empty milk glass in hand, and with [...]
It is an instructive lesson in deciphering the musings of those in the left-leaning American press that have taken a miserable, old white supremacist and committed yet another apotheosis, of a truly and utterly worthless man. The longest serving American Senator, Robert Byrd (Democrat-West Virginia), died this week. Byrd, who was the former “exalted cyclops” [...]
As you’ve read here before I am against the ‘dead-baby story’, which many news outlets find the perfect lead at six o’clock. But in the case little Clare Shelswell the story just broke my heart. This vicious bastard step-father should be granted NO MERCY. Disciplining a kid? Sure thing. I’ve swatted the backsides of all [...]
A long time ago my old man, whose one of the sharpest men you could ever meet, said to me, “You know what? If you become a success in your life and the money goes to your head, you’re finished–better not to make it. Doesn’t matter who you are or where your from. And you [...]
