Conservative Politics, Religion, Culture, and Anything Else

Everybody in the Rhode Island area has either heard of or been a client of the Foxy Lady — a place of ilrepute in the midst of a town called Providence, known for all sorts of things including a “Legs and Eggs” special, while being as classy as Southern New England can do a public strip club. [...]

I taught Roe v. Wade in class this week and was shockingly objective. It’s really hard when you’re a pro-life Catholic teaching in a public school, being morally opposed to abortion as a form of birth control — I just think it’s sick. I felt like I needed a bath and confession afterwards. I NEVER say “fetus”; [...]

“There is no room for hyphenated Americans.” Well said Steven.
Legal immigrants who come to America from other parts of the world to join the club should be welcomed. People are people and frankly, many American citizens could learn a great deal from our legal immigrant friends who are aware of the fact that the USA [...]

Danica McKellar will always be “Winnie Cooper” from the Wonder Years to me; there’s really no getting around that fact. She is about my age and was cute as hell on that show – the crush was immediate and total. I wanted to be Kevin Arnold both here and here and, well, here too. Not all the [...]

Connecticut State Senators Andrew McDonald and Michael Lawlor (Democrats) have proposed legislation that would strip Catholic clergy of control over their budgets and place it in the hands of the laity. The Church has denounced the move and the Catholic League has called for the two libs to be expelled from the Senate. People routinely [...]

Obama is Brahma: he is the Creator… of all that is good through the Stimulus.
Obama is Vishnu: he is the Sustainer… of his version of Liberal America through more government spending and controls.
Obama is Shiva: he is the Destroyer… not just of stock markets, but also of defenseless life through an executive order today, lifting [...]

A football coach from East Brunswick High School in New Jersey, Marcus Borden, was reprimanded for being involved in a student-led prayer a few years ago. The incident took place during a team dinner before a game in 2005. A cheerleader present at this dinner didn’t like how the coach was nodding his head during the student-led prayer. She [...]

The appointment of Kathleen Sebelius to Secretary of Health and Human Services represents an insight into the radical designs of this administration in regards to health care. Sebelius presents a major problem for Catholics and other Christians, as she is known for tight associations with Doctor George Tiller, an abortionist in Kansas on trial for [...]

Ivan Cameron, son of British Conservative Party leader David Cameron, passed away on Wednesday at the age of six. His parents were at his bedside as he lost his battle with cerebral palsy and epilepsy. After learning the tragic news, Gordon Brown delivered condolences to his political opponent on the floor of the House of [...]

I’ve been looking forward to today’s new Steven Crowder video release ever since I discovered the comedic genius a week ago. Unfortunately, today is a bit of a letdown. Although it is still funny, I didn’t find today’s anti-PETA video quite as entertaining as his others. Maybe it’s because PETA’s too easy a target. maybe [...]

In principle, this illustrates a fundamental problem I have with Libs: don’t cut programs you knew you couldn’t have sustained in the first place, but find new things to tax: like pot! Yet another excuse for legislative stoners in San Francisco to get their issue in the news, while finding new ways to punish the act [...]

Despite what’s been flying out of Eric Holder’s mouth, the United States is not a nation of cowards. If you want to see a nation of cowards, look no further than Sweden. Last week, the Scandinavian Socialist Paradise decreed that their country’s upcoming Davis Cup match with Israel will have to be played in an [...]

The Dems have been trying to have it both ways by using the “greedy” label on Republicans and business in general for over a hundred years now. Recently they’ve flipped the greed issue on the Republican Governor’s lack of greed as a way to publically rebuke them about possibly sending back some of that Stimulus cash!
There’s a difference [...]

The idea for a “Chicago Tea Party” is growing. Since CNBC’s Rick Santelli’s rant on Thursday, this website has popped up and news about other tax protests (not revolts just yet) are proliferating everywhere except in MSM coverage– they don’t seem to care or notice.
Question, though, if this is to morph into ”Tea Party USA” as some have urged: [...]

Here’s one from the Funny Because It’s So Politically Incorrect And So True Department. The following, the Qur’an Challenge, is the first Steven Crowder video I saw tonight. Undiplomatic does not even begin to describe the clip, but it is hilarious and there is a lot of truth in there.
His other videos are just as [...]

On the docket in the House of Representatives is H.R. 45, which establishes a blue-ribbon commission to examine the effects of slavery both on African Americans from the Civil War era as well as those living today. The commission would also be charged with determining appropriate remedies to the descendants of slaves:
In making such recommendations, [...]

A Connecticut woman was brutally attacked yesterday in Stamford by an angry chimp. Here’s the story:
I wonder if the people in Spain will get Amnesty International to file human rights violations against the cop who shot the chimp? Sounds silly, but we’ll see– read the link.
Chimps are very intelligent creatures who can learn quickly and have [...]

Mr. Hope and Change.
(Look to the sky with awe for a solemn moment pregnant with possibility)
Speaking of “change,” did you hear about this one today? New pocket change for us all! Yup, the Obama Nation’s indicating stimulus cash of about $13 per paycheck this year and a cool $8 next year (if, as a teacher, I qualify [...]

While watching Beck yesterday as background noise I was getting ready to post something. Suddenly, this fellow Gerald Celente was being interviewed. Sweet Jesus is this guy scary! I thought some of my conservative friends were depressed about the future – check this guy out:
NOTE: unfortunately, the SAP was active in all the good versions of this video.
I hope [...]

Caroline Petrie, a nurse in the UK, was recently suspended from her position because she offered to pray for one of her patients. Apparently, a fellow nurse who was not there was offended, even though the patient was not, and decided to take the matter to the nurse’s superiors. Now a nice woman is being [...]

Here’s the ad in question. I personally think it’s pretty awesome:
NBC stated that it does not intend to air political advocacy ads during the Super Bowl. That’s their prerogative. Yet, they told PETA that they might get their ad on if they edited it to coincide with NBC’s ethical standards a little bit more, but on the [...]

According to Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Contraception funding is an economic stimuls, apparently because less babies will save the states money. In an exchange George Stephanopoulos on This Week:
STEPHANOPOULOS: Hundreds of millions of dollars to expand family planning services. How is that stimulus?
PELOSI: Well, the family planning services reduce cost. They reduce cost. The states are [...]

So what? They’re gay and want to serve. Historically, our hesitancy towards allowing gays in the military always gets stronger when we have no wars and eases when we need bodies to fight. So what’s the big issue when last week, Obama’s people signaled that they want to end the Don’t Ask Don’t Tell (DADT) policy [...]

I got a tip on this video from Glenn Beck’s old show where he interviews the always entertaining Mark Steyn on where Michelle Obama thinks this country needs to go:
From my cold dead hands too, Mark!

With anti-semitism on the rise in recent years, especially in Europe, disturbing scenes like these have become increasingly common. What’s even more troubling is that anti-semitism is socially acceptable enough in certain areas for people to shamelessly display their hatred out in the open. Not that all anti-semites are content to confine their filth to [...]
