Far East Cynic

They must have touched a raw nerve

One of the surest indicators that a campaign or event is on the right track-is the amount of reaction it gets from the Liars Club. To review, the Liars Club is that reprehensible assemblage of the dregs of the blogosphere, who whine like pussies about any and every thing. And

Chick Fil A is gay!

Some of the best common sense writing on the whole Chick Fil A controversy, has been authored by my Canadian counterpart in a couple of really great posts. As I noted previously in my own post-" I think this whole outrage over the remarks of Chick Fil A's president is

They said it would never come to this…..

But alas it has. When people were discussing the repeal of DADT, it was always pointed out that the aim was just to have things be "business as usual" and that the rather more overt things that cause older men like me to get all pissed off and cranky-would not

Guest post.

I am posting this post by my Candian Counterpart in its entirety. Its worth reading-every word-because it effectively lays to rest just about every bullshit argument we here from the ranting herd of ill-informed Fox News viewers.

Be careful what you wish for……

Well might as well beat the dead horse some more. About the Secret Service "scandal"-which is not a scandal really, but a minor incident that has been blown WAY OUT OF PROPOROTION. The New York Post is printing pictures of some of the girls in question-wonder how much they paid

So let me get this straight…..

The Secretary of State wants to unwind a bit swigging some beer in a Columbian hot spot. And that's OK.   But a hard working member of the military or a Secret Service Agent wants to drink  a few beers and slice off a nice guilt free piece of Columbian

Daniel Henniger, writing in the Wall Street Journal-a once great paper that has been destroyed by Rupert Murdoch-says that the Obama administration is trying to destroy Paul Ryan.
