An interesting take on Obama/Biden

Posted by Trisha on August 26th, 2008

In preparing for the upcoming changes to my blog (more on that later) I found this article on Pajamas Media about how Obama/Biden is bad for dads. I found it an interesting read. I will say that his premise is an interesting one, for sure. Obama’s castigation of African-American fathers, blaming them alone for the [...]

I love twitter!

Posted by Trisha on August 1st, 2008

If not for twitter (and dh, of course), I wouldn’t have seen dh post the link to qik, where the live GOP press conference is going on. The house GOP totally rocks! After all, all they want is an up or down vote on gas prices. What’s so hard about that? The dems always say [...]

There must be something wrong

Posted by Trisha on July 1st, 2008

I thought we were a miserable people here in the US. At least that’s what the libs keep telling us. But according to the newest WVS, we’re happier now than 25 years ago. Huh.
From the Science Daily
“Though by no means the happiest country in the world, from a global perspective the U.S. looks pretty [...]

NY on the cusp of it’s first African American governor?

Posted by Trisha on March 10th, 2008

As a new resident to the state of NY, I feel compelled to come out of the no-politics shell I’ve been in for quite awhile and talk about the story that has recently broke concerning our governor. I first must say that my heart and prayers go out to Mrs. Spitzer and her (their) three [...]

Interesting Gallup poll

Posted by Trisha on November 30th, 2007

I have stayed out of the political realm on here for quite some time, other than stating who I am supporting in the ‘08 Presidential election. However, this I found interesting.

PRINCETON, NJ — Republicans are significantly more likely than Democrats or independents to rate their mental health [...]

Ban on flag clothing rescinded

Posted by Trisha on September 13th, 2007

Good to see they have done this. From NBC 17’s website:
SAMPSON COUNTY, N.C – A North Carolina High School that came under national attention over their rule that prohibited students from wearing items with the American flag, or any flag from other countries, has lifted the ban.
Superintendent Dr. L. Stewart Hobbs, Jr said they have [...]

Is the American flag really that offensive?

Posted by Trisha on September 13th, 2007

NBC 17 in North Carolina:
SAMPSON COUNTY, N.C. – On the sixth anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, students at one high school were not allowed to wear clothes with an American flag.
Under a new school rule, students at Hobbton High School are not allowed to wear items with flags, from any country, including the United [...]

Fred Thompson is officially my candidate!

Posted by Trisha on September 6th, 2007

I’ve said before that I supported Fred Thompson. Now, I can say that I support an official Presidential Candidate! I don’t usually stay up to watch Leno, but I did last night. I love listening to Thompson talk. He’s very straightforward, and I like that in a candidate. I believe that he believes what he [...]
