"I just knew that was it for me,'' said Brenda Stinson. "I just thought I wasn't going to be here no more." But the feisty Birmingham woman said she wasn't going without a fight. "I grabbed him between his legs. I grabbed him good between his legs,'' she said. "That's always been my plan because that's a man's weak spot, but I didn't know it was going to come true.

Walking the aisles of your local supermarket may feel like a pretty mundane task. But 100 years ago, it was downright revolutionary. On September 6, 1916, hundreds of curious shoppers came out for the opening of a new grocery store at 79 Jefferson Avenue in Memphis, Tennessee.

This poor lass has devoted the last two or three decades of her life to the gruesome indignities of American politics, shaking hands with morons, forfeiting all privacy, wearing a fixed grin, warily eyeing the bouncy blondes on her husband’s campaign staff and trying to retain her girlish figure through the endless parade of bull roasts, picnics, fundraising banquets and state fairs. (“Try the deep-fried Twinkies ma’am?”) She has done this all with one thought in mind. Someday,...

Red Eye’s Greg Gutfeld popped up at the very end of Glenn Beck tonight to expound on his plans to open a Muslim Gay bar next door to the proposed Muslim Ground Zero Mosque (which, just for clarity’s sake, is not actually a mosque). I’m not even going to bother explaining the exchange for you because it’s short and more fun for you just to watch. Suffice to say, Beck and Gutfeld go over proposed names (Suspicious Packages merely being the catchiest of the bunch) and talk about how Gutfeld is…trying to open up the dialogue. Watch below.

With thanks and credit to Brugmansian, it's looking like all the LSM fuss about Michelle's extravagant vacation in Spain, just might be a distraction to cover up a much more sinister reason for her trip. Brugmansian uncovered the following article in EL MUNDO and the last paragraph is of specific importance. Varias casas reales árabes también pasan sus veranos en Marbella desde hace años. Así, habrá un encuentro entre Michelle Obama y el príncipe Salman bin Abdelaziz, gobernador de Riad y hermano del fallecido Rey Fahd de Arabia Saudí; mientras que se baraja otra reunión de la primera dama con...
