Where are they Now?

Did you ever wonder what Harry Potter's enemy, Draco Malfoy did when he grew up?



















Landed a cool gig as Vice President.

Was this Harry Reid's former job?

Have you ever wondered what Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid did before he became a politician?
I think he was in radio. Click here to see Harry at work. He doesn't seem to have changed much.

Health Care Summit in D.C.

I'm watching the President's Health Care Summit currently running live on Fox News from Blair House in D.C.

The country's top politicians are all assembled in a big room discussing and debating how to reinvent health care. I think our politiciens should be commended for holding a meeting that is broadcast live to the world. This is the way that politics should be conducted in a free and open society.

And now that we have them all right where Americans want them, let's give them all swords and lock the doors from the outside.

Criticism from the British press

The following is an excerpt from an editorial that appeared in the British newspaper, the Daily Express:

" ... spread welfare dependency and attempted to dismantle our national identity through multi-culturalism .... He has run up debts that will take generations to clear and created a prohibitively expensive public sector. ... based around expanding the state, downgrading personal responsibility, destroying nationhood and rewarding victimhood."

The Express is complaining about the dismal job that British Prime Minister Gordon Brown (Labour Party) has done, and how Britain couldn't be any worse off under a new Conservative government.

Why? Who did you think they were talking about?

Hitler Reacts to Scott Brown's Senate Win

It's Friday. Time for a little fun.

Here's a very funny YouTube clip that probably mirrors the sentiments of some people in Washington and San Francisco.

Journalists Freed!

I think most people breathed a sigh of relief when the two American female journalists touched down in California on Wednesday after being freed from detention in North Korea. Kudos to former president Bill Clinton for flying out to North Korea to meet with dictator Kim Jong Ill, and making sure that the release took place. It's for situations like this, that we are fortunate to have a few ex presidents on hand. They understand diplomacy, they have credibility around the world, but they are not directly connected to the current Administration, so there isn't much room for the other side to criticize them, or expect any concessions.

No, President Clinton was undoubtedly the right man for the job. Who is better qualified to pick up two young women--perfect strangers--and take them home with him?

Nobody should have to endure twelve years in a North Korean prison for straying across the border in what seemed to be a fairly innocent mistake. I mean, come on, when millions of illegal immigrants deliberately come across the U.S. border, we don't lock them up for twelve years, we argue about whether or not they are entitled to free health care!

Anyway, all kidding aside, I'm sure we are all glad that the two journalists are home.

Obama Takes Swift, Decisive Action

A CNBC news clip shows the President taking swift and decisive action the other day. He saw a threat, evaluated his options, and carefully and surgically used deadly force to solve the problem. Almost sounds like Spec Ops, doesn't it?

During a taped interview, a fly buzzed around the president and landed on the back of his hand. He immediately killed it with a single swat. "Got the sucker," he confirmed, before continuing with the interview.

This did not sit well with the folks at People for The Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) who don't like the idea that the president killed a living thing. They sent him a fly trap that is designed to humanely catch a fly without harming it so that it can later be released.

I think the president's actions were correct. I just wish he'd apply the same policy to terrorists. As for PETA's catch and release policy on flies, it's hard to argue with them on that issue when it is the same policy that the Obama administration uses for Guantanamo Bay terrorists.

Now if the president had caught the fly in the PETA trap, he could have had it flown to Bermuda and released there--just like that small group of GITMO terrorists were a couple of weeks ago. On the other hand, perhaps we should continue to treat terrorists like the president handles house flies and swat 'em dead at the first opportunity.

David Letterman's Apologies to The Palins

So. David Letterman has apologized for a second time to Sarah Palin and her two daughters for his joke in which he claimed that Yankees baseball player Alex Rodriguez impregnated Palin's underage daughter while she was watching the game.

I'm not going to get into the discussion about whether or not he meant it, whether of not he should apologize, or if the incident is enough to force Letterman to resign from his talk show, "Late Night" on CBS.

But in true Letterman style, I'll give you the top ten reasons why I think he should resign from his spot as a talk show host:

10. He's dull.
9. He's boring.
8. He's narcissistic.
7. He should make way for someone with fresh material.
6. I miss Johnny Carson
5. Is Arsenio Hall still available?
4. I don't think he understands why people found the joke offensive.
3. The Palin joke was simply in bad taste.
2. He isn't funny.

And the number one reason I think Letterman should resign: He isn't entertaining.

Somali Pirate Joke

A guy walks into a bar. The bartender says, "Would you like to try our new drink?"

They guy says, "sure, what’s it called?"

The bartender says, "The Somali Pirate."

The guy says, "What's in it?"

The bartender says... "Three shots and a splash."
