A Future Look Into The Situation Room
Let’s imagine that war has broken out in the Middle East. Israel, Syria, and Iran are all actively involved. Israel is readying nuclear weapons and so is Iran. It’s not hard to imagine. Here’s a guess at what would take place at a Trump Cabinet meeting called to discuss how to react. This would be the … Continue reading A Future Look Into The Situation Room
An Open Letter to Sen. Thune
Dear Senator Thune: It’s all up to you now. You haven’t always been a worshipper at the feet of Orange Julius. Not like a lot of others. But now, for some reason, hopefully good, those others have chosen you to lead them. Congratulations. Now here’s what you have to do – SAVE THE COUNTRY! President … Continue reading An Open Letter to Sen. Thune
Orange Popsuckle
Orange reigns down on us all once again. Whomever created this thing we call existence has released its latest production: “Orange Julius, Volume II, You’ll Be Sorry.” It’s hard to know exactly how to feel. To me, anyway, there are a whole lot of different emotions to deal with. In no particular order: Fear. The … Continue reading Orange Popsuckle
O.J.s First Year?

The Sudden Savior
I am fervently hoping that Kamala Harris will trounce Dangerous Donald. The problem is that it’s hard to imagine. In my world, and it’s a pretty heterogenous world, until this past Sunday, Kamala Harris was a joke. During the Biden Presidency, the common refrain was that Joe better not die because then we’ll be saddled … Continue reading The Sudden Savior
The Great Debate
In two days, Biden and Trump will debate. Here’s my expectation of what will happen: Moderator: Presidents Biden and Trump, we thank you for being here. Trump: LIAR! Moderator: Excuse me, President Trump? I was just thanking you . . . Trump: Doesn’t matter. You’re a liar. What I mean is I don’t know who … Continue reading The Great Debate
Hold Your Whoopee
As I write this, the Supremes today decided the Rahimi case in a way that restricts gun rights. There are many who will greet this decision with a loud and boisterous “Whoopee. We finally won one!” Well, hold your Whoopee, fellas. It ain’t that good. As the old saying goes, there are times when you … Continue reading Hold Your Whoopee
Alito Ain’t No Uncle Sam
Through my friendships with a couple of people who are close to Justice Samuel Alito, I was fortunate enough recently to meet with the Justice for a short interview. Here is a report of what happened. This transcript has been edited by the Justice, so it includes only those portions that he thought placed him … Continue reading Alito Ain’t No Uncle Sam
