I love that she’s pro-life and shows it in word and deed.I love that she’s a reformer who took on the establishment and won.But more than anything, I love this. She vetoed a law she agreed with because it was unconstitutional. And that is the first and most important job of the government: to uphold […]
So . . . Governor Sarah Palin. Don’t laugh or anything, but I like her. I like the idea of her. I like her politics, her speech, and her standing up to the powers that be. I’m one of those conservatives who was going to write in a candidate rather than vote for McCain. (Reagan […]
The girls were asking me about the presidential elections and the primaries. Little Miss was particularly confused at why people were still voting when we’ve (Texans) already voted. She thought each state got their own president. I explained about primaries and the general elections, etc. I think I cleared that up. Or not, but she […]
Scott Ott of Scrappleface has a very good take on the Spitzer scandal at Townhall. He writes: “Before you rise to do a Snoopy dance on the political grave of New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer, you might pause to consider how a man with a such a public reputation of integrity ends up a poster-child […]
And an irresponsible one at that. I took my sick kids to infest the polling place today. It was pretty empty, so I don’t feel too guilty. And I think only one of them is sick now, but don’t quote me on that. I also took them to the grocery store, which I wouldn’t have […]

So, I’m weaseling out of actual thought with this email sent by a friend. Everybody play! The following is excerpted from a children’s book, Captain Underpants And the Perilous Plot Professor Poopypants, […]
The Bulldozer had his 3-year checkup this morning, and we discussed his digestive issues. So I get to collect FIVE stool samples. One of the suggestions is to turn his diaper inside out so that it isn’t absorbent. Unfortunately, that’s asking for disaster with his, ahem, digestive issues. So this out to be interesting. Anyone […]
You may have heard the kerfuffle about Barack Obama’s alleged plagiarism. I have uncovered what may be a far more extensive case of word theft. You be the judge: Bob the Builder Can we fix it? Bob the Builder Yes, we can! This fact has been revealed by the talented and expert herbal researchers who […]
My very first political campaign was the 1980 presidential election. I distributed flyers for Reagan. I was six and I used my little red wagon. I grew up in a socially conservative house. My mom has been the director of a crisis pregnancy center since I was ten. My first election that I voted in […]
