An open letter to Mr. David Green.
For those who don’t know, Mr. David Green, he is the worthless, religious zealot who runs Hobby Lobby. Today, in a decision that highlights just how political and out of touch with the law the Supreme Court has become-and how dysfunctional the American government has become-he was given a free hand

I watched the USA get into the knockout round by the skin of its teeth. Losing a match to Germany that Germany controlled pretty much from the start. Living here in Germany, it was kind of like being a Red Sox fan with seats on the first base line at

Newcastle Ale explores the possibilities: They may be on to something-celebrate alternate history on July 3, then celebrate real history on July 4th. Two parties, two hangovers-and a lot better cuss words. “Newcastle is a very British beer, and needless to say, it doesn’t sell that well on July 4.

I woke up this morning to see articles blaming the current situation on Iraq-on our failure to leave troops there. John McCain is living up to his reputation of never meeting a war he did not want Americans to fight. They are trotting out the “I told you so” brigades

This will be my second and hopefully, the last post on the abomination that is the Harry Harris sponsored assrape investigation into the Blue Angels “command climate”.
