"Others have said they would personally be happy to pay higher taxes. I welcome their enthusiasm. I'm pleased to report that the IRS accepts both checks and money orders." Mr. President, I've been waiting 7 years to hear you say that. I'm anxiously waiting to see if our liberal Democratic members of Congress follow the President's suggestion.......

Ok so this new series I've started called BDOTS (come on it can't be legit if it doesn't have an acronym) is supposed to be reserved only for the worst of the worst and therefore a fairly rare occurrence. Well, having said that, when it rains it pours. Only days after exposing the cream of the crop, Keith Olbermann, for his outlandish behavior which is nigh satirically beyond touch with reality, someone else has made a complete ass of himself and really negated any class he ever once had. John Gibson, commentator and overall weird looking guy on Fox News said on his radio show referring to Heath Ledger's death "Well, he found out how to quit you," a reference to a quote from Ledger's somewhat controversial movie, "Brokeback Mountain." Gibson made the quote to the tune of stereotypical funeral music. Wow, way to stay classy John. Having said that, what John did isn't as bad as what Keith typically does every night on his TV show, which i...

For anyone who wants a first hand look at what our boys have gone through and are going through this very moment, "House to House" is essential reading for anyone who feels strongly about the War in Iraq. No matter what stance you presently have, this book will alter your feelings towards the war and what it means to be a U.S. soldier. Gauranteed.

Ok everyone, thanks to my new form of employment I now spend about 1000% less time on or near a computer than I did while in Washington, so we're gonna have a few changes around here for the time being. While the primaries are raging all around us, you probably don't need me to discern which race is more important, they're both equally historic. McCain is on the verge of becoming a national front runner after winning New Hampshire and South Carolina after being left for dead last July, and Barack Obama is dangerously close to knocking off the closest thing we have in this country to a political aristocracy-the Clinton political machine. So, having said that, lets move on to a new segment I'll be starting called "Biggest Drain on the Species." Bill O'Reilly has his "Pinheads and Patriots", Keith Olbermann has his "Worst person in the World", so Kriplekistan will now be naming the person it believes is the biggest genetic drain on the...

So with this election season up for grabs on both sides of the political aisle, plenty of surprises are to be expected. Thankfully, we've weeded out the wheat from the chaff (exit Tancredo, Brownback, Tommy Thompson, Richardson, Dodd, and Biden) and can now look at real contenders. Everyone is still surprised at Obama's Iowa win, and even more so about Huckabee's surprise win in Iowa, where Mitt Romney had spent countless amounts of dollars in order to curry favor with the voters. New Hampshire has brought on even more suspense, with Hillary unexpectedly beating out heavily favored Obama. But even more surprising is the resurgence of John McCain. By summer of 2007, McCain's campaign was all but written off as dead. The man was a political afterthought as the buzz swirled around Fred Thompson and Rudy Giuliani held the spotlight above the rest. Then the country caught a glimpse of Mike Huckabee, and his popularity surged. Now, against all odds, John McCain has ju...

All month long, we heard comments like these.... And when game time came, we saw plays like these.... Way to go DAWGS baby! 41-10 Sugar Bowl Champs! This coming fall is gonna rock! (Yeah yeah yeah, I know, Obama and Huckabee, more on the Iowa Caucuses tomorrow......)
