Where “Tennessee” is a blind 13-year-old shih tzu who had been frightened by a storm, panicked and ran the wrong way from home into the woods, became lost and eventually walked into a lake.  

Early the next morning fishing guide Brian Carper spotted a shivering fur ball after Tennessee spent the night lost and alone.

It’s a great story.

NASHVILLE — Fishing guide Brian Carper didn’t have to use a pole to make a big catch the day after Christmas.

All he needed was a soft spot in his heart for a blind dog in trouble.

Carper left his boat to rescue the tiny 13-year-old shih tzu who wandered into Percy Priest Lake. Carper returned the dog to his grateful owners, who had been searching for their beloved pet for 15 hours. (more…)

…. perhaps you need to see this as much as I did:

Merry Christmas !

Too funny.  Every channel, every broadcast, every station, every radio air wave: “Trump said”…. “Trump ban”…  “Trump said”… “Trump ban”…  wall-to-wall, everywhere, e.v.e.r.y.w.h.e.r.e !  ‘Splodey’s, ‘Splodey’s, ‘Splodey’s !

BRILLIANT !!!

Folks – enjoy this, we are watching a masters’ hand play the insufferable media like a gifted prodigy plays a Stradivarius.  It is a thing of beauty.

In response to Donald Trump’s lawful, constitutional, and prudent proposal to halt Muslim immigration the media are actually saying:

…”if you aren’t nice to moderate Muslims they’ll stop being moderate and murder you”..

Let that sink in for a few minutes. (more…)

(Via Washington Examiner) Wreaths Across America, the group responsible for placing wreaths on 230,000 headstones at Arlington National Cemetery, said Wednesday that 30,000 graves may have to forego the commemorative garland due to a lack of funding.

The project is not government-sponsored, leaving the organization responsible for raising $3.45 million to fund the $15 wreaths on each Arlington tombstone. As of Wednesday night, Wreaths Across America was $450,000 short of reaching its goal with five days until the Tuesday, Dec. 1 deadline. (more…)

We Remember Mississippi 2014 !

Dear: Rush Limbaugh, Mark Levin, Laura Ingraham, Sean Hannity, Michael Savage and those of your similar professional circle.

After the fiasco that was Mitt Romney, for over two years each of you -at one point or another- have called for the broader conservative electorate, the generalized “right” or “center-right”, to unite in support behind one candidate who can defeat the leftist advancement and larger progressive agenda.

While railing at “drive-bys“, “corporate interests“, “manufactured politics” and various catch phrases, you have engaged a national audience and delivered opinion.

Did you actually mean it ?

.… Or was that all BULLSHIT ? (more…)

Every wonder why we have been supportive of Matt Bevin for the past three years?  Newly elected Kentucky Governor Matt Bevin shares his views on the EPA authority and overreach as it relates to Kentucky Coal-Mining.

Full-throated unapologetic constitutional conservative. (more…)

All of the stuff that swirls around us can be exhausting and deflating; sometimes we need to take a break, and recognize a larger humanity travels along with us…. we’re really not alone in this; not even close.

Take a break, sit down, relax and enjoy this food for the soul. I promise you won’t regret it:

Wow.  Carl Icahn is putting $150 million toward creating his Super-PAC which will target political policy aimed to stop U.S. corporate business inversions, and promote repatriation of money held offshore.

Icahn is a very good friend of Candidate Donald Trump and one of the few pro-U.S. billionaires who believe in American exceptionalism. 

Icahn and Trump are part of a rare club of business leaders who, while being part of the billionaire investor class, are more Pro-Main Street than Wall Street.

(VIA REUTERS)  Billionaire investor activist Carl Icahn tweeted on Wednesday that he is forming a Super PAC with an initial commitment of $150 million, representing the biggest one-time injection of money in the history of such political action committees.

Icahn, who supports presidential candidate Donald Trump, said he is targeting “inversions,” which occur when a company changes its domicile, often outside the United States, to take advantage of lower tax rates elsewhere. (more…)

Matt Drudge warned in a rare interview Tuesday that future decisions on digital copyright laws could stifle free speech, including putting an end to his popular Drudge Report website.  The comments came in a radio interview with Alex Jones.

Interview begins at @04:50

“I had a Supreme Court justice tell me to my face it’s over for me. Said, ‘Matt, it’s over for you. They’ve got the votes not to enforce copyright law. You’re out of there. They’re gonna make it so headlines, you can’t even use headlines,’” Drudge said. “To have a Supreme Court justice say that to my face!”  (link)
