Obama Finally Makes It to Joplin

Posted on May 30, 2011 by Dave Blount

It was thoughtful of the Moonbat Messiah to only take a week to get around to visiting the devastation in Joplin.

Mene, mene, tekel, upharsin

Posted on May 29, 2011December 30, 2012 by Bookworm

I’ve often heard people use the expression “he saw the handwriting on the wall.” I wonder, though, how many know that it originates in the Book of Daniel, which is a part of the Old Testament. I’m reasonably sure that most of my readers are familiar with the story of Daniel, but for those who […]
