I am betting that MO’s philippic is more inspired that BHO’s. Just sayin’.

They played some John Philippic Sousa at the parade Monday.

It was not a philippic just a declination to run again.

Weren’t there some letters and a radio message to the Phillippies that MacArthur wrote?
You know, after he was defeated by the Japanese and left those islands on a PT boat?

One of my friends told me her neighbor’s dog gave her big dog some philippic and ended up with stitches.

Breaking News:

Washington, DC - The Justice Department has just announced that, due to sequestration "cuts", all defendants being prosecuted in U.S. federal courts will now be required to bring their own kangaroos to trial.
Effective immediately.

Not a philippic speech, but a good recommendation. Just read Robert Crais' book Suspect. ..... .....the book is about a trained Marine dog named Maggie who's handler died while Maggie was wounded in Afghanistan. After her recovery, she is donated to the LAPD where a wounded police officer spots her and wants her for his K-9 partner. They were both scarred and wounded and nearly died. It was fascinating. Some chapters were from Maggie's POV. With a new puppy in the house I enjoyed it.

One tip from the K-9 instructor in the book was to pet the dog from the head to her tail...I tried that and my puppy insisted on getting up on my lap and really responds to the petting. She licks me and gazes up at me when I pet her like that. There must be something to it. The trainer in the books says it's how the mother dog groomed the puppies and they like it. Really worked with my dog.

All in all, he is a great story teller despite the dog tips.

Her Highness' hubby has been said to be insensitive at times, but not actually Philippic...
