Princess Nancy

There are unexplainable facts of political life and one of those facts is that Nancy Pelosi keeps on getting elected to Congress. Even more baffling is that she was elected, by people who know and work with her on a daily basis, to be Speaker of the House of Representatives. Her embarrassing tenure as Speaker went a long way to costing her political party control of that body in the 2010 election cycle and yet her incompetence was rewarded by being voted minority leader and she, having no sense of honor or shame, accepted the position. Now she salutes BHO for overriding Constitutional limits and established convention in his appointment of a "Consumer Protection Czar" and some Union hacks to the NLRB. In a just world she would be selling perfume on the ground floor of Gumps but in this world - the twilight of America - she's writing Federal laws and making big cash through insider trading.

Besides, she was no worse than any of the other women on morning show TV - I mean, you're only going to find a certain kind of person to do this kind of work and that kind of person is the Gretchen Carlson kind. Then, one day, she was gone and replaced by Elisabeth Hasselbeck and the F&F ratings began to climb, and climb and climb - in two months view...

Blue Devils and Yellow Cowards

A few weeks ago Duke lost Coach K’s last game at Camron Indoor Stadium to the schools hated rival, North Carolina University, in an epic grudge match. It was an “ unacceptable ” finale for the maniacal ferret-faced competitor who created the 40 year dynastic Duke hoops program with 1,000+ wins and fists full of ACC and NCAA championships but for Tar Heels everywhere it was a day of retribution. Michael  William Krzyzewski, is a red-blooded All-American college basketball coach of Polish and Ukrainian descent who grew up in Chicago’s famous Ukrainian Village which is (or at least was) culturally very reminiscent of the Rus borderlands. That is to say that young S h-shef-ski   grew up as  far away (psychology) from Dixie as is possible while still living within the borders of the USA. That makes him the perfect choice to represent Duke University and the Yankee overachievers who emigrate to Durham for 4 years of education and networking before moving back to...
