Making Lemonade Out of My Lemons

July 2nd, 2009 • COasis • 10 comments • Related • Filed Under

OK. Good news bad news. Maybe we can look at it from a glass half empty half full point of view. But in the end, I want to give you the REAL good news that perhaps might be less obvious to you. But first- We live in a country where someone like Al Franken can become [...]

The Irony Of Our Entitlement Systems

February 24th, 2009 • COasis • 1 comment • Related • Filed Under

Is Washington State Scratching Its own Back Under the Guise of “Helping Others”? In the OTHER Washington, something rather interesting is going on. It is a twisted story, the kind of news that makes one just shake your head, if you are a fiscal, common sense conservative. Washington State is currently sending out 250,000 one dollar checks [...]

This Is Your Country

upside_down_flag Elections have consequences. You hear that thrown around by both sides for a variety of reasons. Right now, some things are happening in this country that are very disturbing. Even more disturbing is that more is likely coming. Soon. This is your country… one where the new President promised transparency, but all the operations seem to go [...]

The Bush Legacy

What happened; what we learned; what we can take from it moving forward… (NOT necessarily in chronological order…) These are some perhaps unique if not interesting takes on some of the things we saw in the Bush years.

This is growing more amazing by the day. Having been personally involved in overseeing a recount process in Washington State, however, I should really not be surprised at the lengths to which Democrats will go to win. First off, let’s just point out the following: What happens in a lot of these situations where canvassing boards [...]

“Worse Before Better” (Or, “What size is Obama’s foot vs his mouth?”) Making his first stupid lack of wisdom and experience mistake, President elect Obama stated twice in an interview that “The economy is going to get worse before it gets better.” Brilliant. He might be right, but he has made his first mistake based on being [...]

Franken Ain’t Joking Now You all know the story, or should. Here we go again. Dems trying to recount and recount until they “find” enough votes to get their guy in. In a very close race, incumbent Senator Norm Coleman is hanging by a thread against a Democrat party and Secretary of State in Minnesota that believes [...]

Calling the Bluff of the Childish Rantings on the Right

February 6th, 2008 • COasis • 5 comments • Related • Filed Under

Listening to the likes of Dobson and Coulter lately, as well as many other of the more far right conservative talking heads is like listening to children making threats. I remember when I was a child thinking “Oh yeah???!! Well, I will just kill myself, and THEN you will be sorry!” (I am not sure [...]
