PPP’s final poll in Michigan finds Rick Santorum holding on to the smallest of leads with 38% to 37% for Mitt Romney, 14% for Ron Paul, and 9% for Newt Gingrich.  It’s always good to be cautious with one night poll numbers, but momentum seems to be swinging in Santorum’s direction. Romney led with those interviewed on Sunday, but Santorum has a 39-34 advantage with folks polled on Monday. The best sign that things have gone back toward Santorum might be that with those polled today who hadn’t already voted, Santorum’s advantage was 41-31.   (more…)

I can’t imagine how the parents of our soldiers currently serving in Afghanistan must feel after hearing the sorry apologies offered up on behalf of our government this past weekend.  Mark offers a proper apology to the men and women serving in the military… an apology for “this jerk who’s the Command-in-Chief, for this jerk who’s the Secretary of State, for this Jerk who’s the Secretary of Defense…for the whole damn bunch of them!”

Yikes, this was about one of the freakiest crashes ever.   While headed down turn 3 during a caution lap, Juan Pablo Montoya broke something in his car, lost control, and crashed into a safety vehicle cleaning the track.   200+ gallons of jet fuel erupt in flames.   Both Montoya and the driver of the truck walked away, both appear ok.   Race stopped.

I guess it was too late to nominate the guy who shot those two Americans in Kabul last week?….  Oh well, there’s always next year.   🙁  Say no more

Hey!  You like this…you really LIKE this!  🙂

For anyone still under the mistaken impression that Occupy Wall Street is just some loosely organized group of radical malcontents,  you’re in for a rude awakening.  This morning their website produced a list of demands…a list that would put any ambitious grade school class president wannabee to shame.   They also bear an uncanny resemblance to the Communist Manifesto.

• Repeal the Taft-Hartley Act. Unionize ALL workers immediately.
• Raise the minimum wage immediately to $18/hr. Create a maximum wage of $90/hr to eliminate inequality.
• Institute a 6 hour workday, and 6 weeks of paid vacation.  (more…)

On March 1st, Google will implement its new, unified privacy policy, which will affect data Google has collected on you prior to March 1st as well as data it collects on you in the future. Until now, your Google Web History (your Google searches and sites visited) was cordoned off from Google’s other products. This protection was especially important because search data can reveal particularly sensitive information about you, including facts about your location, interests, age, sexual orientation, religion, health concerns, and more. If you want to keep Google from combining your Web History with the data they have gathered about you in their other products, such as YouTube or Google Plus, you may want to remove all items from your Web History and stop your Web History from being recorded in the future.   Here’s how you can do that:

Wow!  I wonder if Ron Paul knows about this?  Looks like somebody’s son will be in for a bit of disappointment.   BTW….would someone please give Ann Coulter a hand?  I think she just fainted.

(DailyCaller)…New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie seems to be budging from his statement last year that, “If the vice-presidency is offered to me, I will turn it down.”  (more…)

*snore*, when isn’t CAIR in some form of faux outrage……

CAIR FB –  The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) today called on the New York Post to apologize for publishing a political cartoon that the Muslim civil rights group says “evokes anti-Semitic themes” through its depiction of hook-nosed terrorists objecting to the New York City Police Department’s (NYPD) widespread campaign of spying on Muslims without warrants or evidence of wrongdoing.

I want to extend my sincere condolences to the families of the Army Colonel and Major who were killed by Afghanistan security forces over this “burning Koran” episode.

If we had resolute leadership in the White House, we would have explained that these Islamic terrorist enemy combatants detained at the Parwan facility used the Koran to write jihadist messages to pass to others.

In doing so, they violated their own cultural practice and defiled the Koran and turned the Koran into contraband.

The Islamic cultural practice and Parwan detention facility procedures support burning the “contraband.” (more…)
