War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Old men, they are now — the big three of the scandal of scandals. The Washington Post blog The Reliable Source reported on a chance encounter in late January of John Dean, Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein at the Nixon Library in Yorba Linda, Calif., and the quick whiplash of history — this June will be…
Sleep wasn’t too happy this cycle — insomnia is a baffling infliction, hard to judge and makes a mess of a day. But, what the hey? Wee-early is crazy time. Fer instance, Tom Brady’s old lady gets whipped after whining — Gisele Bundchen was overheard lambasting fumble-fingered receivers, but the Giants’ Brandon Jacobs retorted: “She…
Morning horror: Woke up way-too early to fully handle the CNN headline: Santorum’s Surprise 3-State Sweep. The eyes saw, but didn’t understand/believe — the most-immediate reaction was to quickly suppress blowing huge, gnarly chunks all over the Internets. Clueless ass-wipe Santorum incoherently declared: “I think we need to win in the sense that we need…
Last week, when Mitt Romney blubbered, “I’m not concerned about the very poor,” he later waddled back, claiming he “mispoke.” In reality, the Mitt told the truth — if one has money, who gives a shit. And cartoon-buffoon, mega-rich Don Trump on Monday silly-like claimed credit for Romney’s win in Nevada’s GOP caucus over the…
In all the bullshit noise this past week — even from yesterday’s ‘secular high holy day‘ along with the Three-Ring-Three-Stooges GOP political antics — there’s still folks dying in Afghanistan. A war now beyond the decade limit, and from all indications, going really, really bad. An example of the dumb-ass futility of it all: An American…
Pig skin and history: Ground acquisition. And that’s what football is, football’s a ground acquisition game. You knock the crap out of eleven guys and take their land away from them. Of course, we only do it ten yards at a time. That’s the way we did it with the Indians — we won it…
After a visit to the laundromat this morning, I put another $20 worth of gas in the old, problem-plagued Jeep, wincing (both the Jeep and I) at a pump price of $3.99 a gallon for regular — up more than a dime since the last time. And apparently based on the so-called favorable employment report…
Bluster and bullshit go hand-in-hand: Reportedly, there’s some kind of big game this weekend, don’t know myself, but a lot of hype out there about it — Sunday’s a good day to get some good sleep, though. Of course, there’s so much chatter about that particular sporting event, but not much on really what’s happening…
In an era of supposed enlightenment, marijuana still remains on the fringe — Dude, that needs to change. Newt Gingrich, however, does appear even worse after a couple of tokes — some changes require way more. Pot is the weaker sister — the big headline in this story was marijuana, but alas… A Rhode Island…
Any half-sane person is by now sick to the bowels of the GOP — Mitt Romney won the Florida primary, but the question posed: Who gives a shit? Although President Obama is most-likely the most-disappointing leader in US history, he’s leagues above Romney and the rest of his half-assed, ignorant Republican buddies, as the above-mentioned…
