Our family had a wonderful Christmas together! I must have been good Santa gave me a Beretta PX4 Storm. http://t.co/QtRbyFU6CT — Nikki Haley (@nikkihaley) December 26, 2013 The comments on the Twitter post includes the usual anti-gun hysteria — she doesn’t “need” the gun, she’ll end up killing some one else — and the always popular Leftwinger wish towards non-leftists: @nikkihaley @theonlyadult Please God, use it on yourself. Like before

ObamaCare could resemble Medicaid [Darleen Click]
Well, duh. Those signing up for private health care coverage on the ObamaCare exchanges may be in for an unpleasant surprise — they’ll have insurance, but they might have trouble getting the doctor to see them. As hundreds of thousands enroll for coverage beginning Jan. 1, analysts are warning that the plans are likely to give them access to fewer doctors and hospitals. So much so, they warn, that the
Haven’t posted Satch’s matches for a while
So here are a few: From a dual Saturday, Satch — weighing in at a lithe 48.4lbs — takes on a 61 pound foe. The voice you hear coaching him (along with mine) is Leister Bowling, who is a grappling coach for a number of top UFC fighters (including at times George St Pierre) and one of the coaches of our Metro club: From the same dual, Satchel loses a
Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Deck the Halls and all that jazz
Yes, I’ve been away: I really need to recharge my batteries and decide if shouting into the wind day after day, week after week, month after month, and year after year is truly worth it any longer, particularly when so many people add to this cosmic joke by either surreptitiously or very obviously pointing industrial grade fans in my general direction. Not really, of course. But it’s a metaphor so
Christmas movies … [Darleen Click]
Returning home from Thanksgiving, we got into our pjs and slippers, poured a couple of glasses of wine and watched Miracle on 34th Street (1947 in glorious black and white). Last Sunday night we huddled on the couch with the grandsons and watched A Christmas Story. Tonight, after I’ve seasoned the roast and set up the wassail to simmer over-night, we’ll be watching The Bishop’s Wife So what are the

“Pajama Boy Nation” [Darleen Click]
Victor Davis Hanson Somehow we as a nation went from the iconic Marlboro Man to Pajama Boy — from the noble individual with a bad habit to the ignoble without a good habit — without a blink in between. There are lots of revolting things in the Pajama Boy ad. After all, how can you top all at once a nerdy-looking child-man dressed in infantile pajamas while cradling a cup
Thank you, President Wilson and Happy Birthday Federal Reserve! [Darleen Click]
It’s been 100 years and it has worked out soooo well! On December 23, 2013, the Federal Reserve System will celebrate 100 years of centralized banking and printing funny money. The creation of the Fed marked the beginning of America’s rampant inflation rate. For the first 125 years of American independence, inflation of any significance did not occur. What $1.00 purchased in 1789 could be had for a very reasonable
