George Will was at the top of my 2015 absurd and dishonest list.

E.B. White: "The most beautiful sound in America is the tinkle of ice at twilight."

B.H. Obama: "The sweetest sound I know is the Muslim call to prayer."

A pen and a phone
An executive order
A memo
... considering

That pretty much sums up our “Representative” government to me until 2016.

The worst nightmare that ever haunted this pitiful nation!

a nobody with a dead man’s social security number.

If only this were true. The year is gone, but not the rest. This portends to be Obama's most aggressive year so far. Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell will be his wing men.

I’m considering CCW but MT has open carry.

For me it’s a shotgun and a semi auto pitchfork (some green and gray spray paint to make it an assault pitchfork).

Maybe a pitchfork rack for the pickup too!

It was another lousy year. Good riddance to it and to Barry Obama a year from now.

We both have strange sleeping patterns. I went to sleep last night, dreamed I was awake and when I woke up, I was still asleep.

George Will, self-ascribed “amiable atheist,” did not mention the biggest overreach of all. By a margin of one vote, the Supreme Court redefined marriage. The court potentially criminalized all Christians who oppose homosexual marriage.

Atheists, amiable or otherwise, do not care much about the spiritual underpinnings of our nation.

Will left out his own absurdity - that all illegal aliens are 8 year olds with teddy bears.
