Far East Cynic

Sometimes the truth hurts-but it needs to be heard.

The problem with a trip like this last one is that with “social” dinners thrown in-it leaves little time for booming or blogging. I opted for booming and let my blogging slide. I’m home for the weekend now and catching up. A whole group of people are up in arms

The numbers game

I pointed this out before-one of the key elements of Teabag strategy, if it can be called that, is based on a numbers game. Getting all of their folks out-who really don’t represent a majority of Americans-and keeping the rest of us at home.  America has one of the most miserable

Fall weekend in the mountains

I have been trying to persuade the S.O. for this entire week that we need to head up into the mountains in Tennessee. She resisted it all week-till she called me up yesterday and said she wants to go. So off we go today- I had to put the details

Summed up well

The GOP’s pledge that is not a pledge-but a rehash of stupid ideas: One person likes it though:

Playing the tape to the end….

I despise the Tea Party-they represent to me a danger to the United States that is equal to any other the country has faced. A few million docile swine-being manipulated by some very unscrupluous men. They may not being wearing brown shirts physically-but they are of the same caliber of

Partying like its 1932……

Even assuming a 55/45% split Democratic / Republican and subtracting out underage folks that still leaves a lot of people

Fighting back…..

Nice work if you can get it………

The details of Sarah Palin’s contract were ordered released by a California judge who pointed out that University of California officials had violated state public records laws in agreeing with Palin to keep the contract secret. On top of a $75,000

Andrew Breitbart

While commenting over at Phib’s place-out of genuine concern for a blogger I really like and read regularly-I put myself at odds with many members of the herd over there. My mistake-asking Phib what he was doing writing for a sleazebag like Breitbart. The thing is, as I started researching

The people in the crowd say it all………

At Beckapoolaza. Just cause I like to beat this particular horse ( and I have never known anyone else who deserves a beating more than Beck does. And before you start Curtis it is not wrong to hate him.) I thought I would post a few pics from “real Ameruuuika”: There it
