just continue getting disgusted with the garbage coming out of Obola’s newsrooms. Blah. No pride (except gay pride), no integrity (but what’s been lost), no honesty (but they never do turn against their oppressors in the socialist and Islamic world), no sense of duty (except to the other press agents in the pooltrain behind Oboma....)

Loon is too kind a word.

I know, but "scumbag" doesn't rhyme with "poltroon."

They said the snow would stop here at 11:15, and dang...only a few flurries. They were right on. Slade goes home at 1 and I can run my errands after all. Lunch out for me! Yummy salad with chicken and a single bread stick. It will be like heaven. Been losing weight. Did a lot of shakes all week and I need to eat something different.

Liberal Media is a poltroon
Who’ll avoid a political cartoon
When Mohammed’s the butt,
They’ll keep mouths shut
‘Cuz their heads would likely roll soon…

I guess telling you it is 67 and sunny here would be rude, huh?
