John Kerry’s Humpty Dumpty fall

This is another Kerry gift that will keep on giving

There are many thousands in the armed forces that are proud to be “not as smart as Jon Cary.”

So much for John Kerry being a uniter rather than a divider.

The Democratic Party won’t dare support him for another run at the White House.

All the king’s horses (liberal newspapers led by New York Times) and all the king’s men (liberal TV media led by CNN and MSNBC) could put John Kerry back together again.

Assesing the damage caused by Kerry’s “botched joke” can be found here.

Will sea fish go the way of the Dodo bird?

Some observers are warning that over fishing may diminish seafood population.

There will be virtually nothing left to fish from the seas by the middle of the century if current trends continue, according to a major scientific study.

Look at the bright side. By the middle of the century we won’t be able to plug our arteries with deep fat fried fish sticks.

Help mom! There are liberals under my bed!

There is a new children’s book out that seems to have Hillary up in arms. The Senator's spokesman attacks the illustrated story that contains a Hillary Clinton look-alike.

"Help! Mom! There Are Liberals Under My Bed!" offers a witty alternative to the usual liberal fare, demonstrating the virtues of capitalism and true diversity of expression in words and pictures that both kids and adults can laugh along with.

The book skewers a variety of well-known liberals and their philosophy in cartoon fashion, and features a villain who bears an uncanny resemblance to Hillary taxing and regulating a child's lemonade stand.

The author said: “It's ironic that Hillary's press secretary would call for more government intrusion into our lives while bashing my book.”

Coca-Cola Blāk: coffee flavored Coke

Coca-Cola introduced Coca-Cola Blāk, their new coffee flavored soft drink, in April, 2006.
