I know Hillary, I love Hillary. Lady, you're no Hillary.

McCain's choice for his Veep is a ploy to snatch away women voters who had been supporting Hillary. At least, that's what the pundits are saying. But I say if that's the case, it's extremely insulting to women. How dare they think that I'm going to blindly follow anyone simply because she's a SHE. This particular SHE is, from what little I've been able to scrape up on her, anti-environment, anti-choice, anti-gay-rights, knows nothing about foreign policy, has a husband who works for an oil company, looks like she could be McCain's granddaughter, annoyingly reminds me of SNL's Tina Fey and, truth be told, her ability to pick quality names for her children has been called into question.

A friend pointed out that this stoutly conservative 44-year-old Alaska governor's five children are named Track, Bristol, Willow, Piper and Trig.

My husband then quipped:
Her kids' names sound like a dog sled team.

She's also has a very poor track record when it comes to supporting endangered wildlife. I look forward to her disappearing back to Alaska when her & McCain lose in a few months.

She seems like a very nice lady. She probably has some pet penguins. And igloos. Not to mention that she is the only one of the four with any leadership experience. She is the longtime mayor of Wasilla Alaska and a runner up in the Miss Alaska pageant. She is a hunter so she will be able to carry out the duty of the VP requiring her to shoot her friends. And if anyone doubts her imagination and creativity, just look at the names of her kids (Trig? Isn't that a math class?). It was a great choice because I think that with this choice McCain is a certainty to win Alaska (Al Gore couldn't even carry his home state when he was running for president). Good job John, and good luck.

No kidding. All McCain is trying to do is steal headlines away from Obama. There is absolutely no depth to his choice. Prior to the meeting they all had before this was announced, he'd only even met the woman ONCE. I don't like her one bit. (and her kids' names do sound like a dog sled team! Bravo, Tim)

Is it OK to own a Canadian?

In her radio show, Dr Laura Schlesinger said that, as an observant Orthodox Jew, homosexuality is an abomination according to Leviticus 18:22, and cannot be condoned under any circumstance. The following response is an open letter to Dr. Laura, written by a U.S. resident, and posted on the Internet. It's funny, as well as informative: Dear Dr. Laura: Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I have learned a great deal from your show, and try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination ... End of debate. I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some other elements of God's Laws and how to follow them. 1. Leviticus 25:44 states that I may possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexic...

What's in a name? Everything.

I'm appalled. You can call it King or Duke or Princess or M'lady of Everloving Windsor. But you cannot call it Queen. It is not Queen. Will never be Queen again. Freddie Mercury was the heart and soul and voice and face and pianist and songwriter and co-founder of that '70s & '80s phenomenal English rock band. Yet, guitarist Brian May and drummer Roger Taylor have trotted some singer named Paul Rodgers on stage, on tour, on a new album, and are calling themselves Queen. Technically, they're referring to themselves as Queen + Paul Rodgers. I'm sorry, but two washed-up has-been musicians and some former singer for Bad Company does not somehow magically make it OK to blaspheme Freddie like this. The band HE fronted was the one inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame. MTV named Mercury the second greatest singer in the history of popular music. I realize that many bands suffer this fate as members retire or die and others t...
