    Saturday Night Live's opening skit was not kind to Obama.

    It was a joint press conference from Beijing with Obama, played by Fred Armisen and Chinese president Hu Jintao, played by Will Forte. There was also an interpreter, Nasim Pedrad.

  • How Not to Handle Divorce

    —Shark and Shepherd

    While there is obviously a widely reported matter that prompts this post, it's really not about them other than whatever concern we may have for the people involved. No politics here. Please.

    Senate Health Care Vote Tonight The Senate will begin voting today on Sen. Harry Reid's 'health care reform' bill. While the bill includes several improvements over the fatally flawed House version, the Senate's efforts to protect American jobs and revive the economy fall flat. With the first major vote beginning tonight at 8:00 [...]

    EMERGENCY MEETING of the Vets' Affairs Board to review Scocos' job performance again

    The December issue is out with the cover story, “Sacred Churches.” Adorning the cover is a magnificent photo of the dome atop St. Josaphat's Basilica. The magazine mentions the 25 most beautiful and influential churches in Milwaukee. In an obvious sacrilege, it unconscionably fails to mention my beloved St. Anthony’s at [...]

  • The USCC's ACORN Problem, Milwaukee and Chicago Ties

    —Dad29

    History counts. It also helps to understand ACORN-ism's methods, one of which is to operate under different names. Confusion is good, to ACORN-ites, and confusing Catholic Charities with the Campaign for Human Development is just fine. Except that they are VERY different organizations with a somewhat-common history.

     No - you won’t find maps drawn from Wisconsin Senators.  Actually, you’ll find hardly any maps were submitted.  I congratulate the Senators who took the time to complete the task.  They reflect just a bit of personality, and yes, some knowledge of their home states.  I found them very interesting. To help kick [...]

    Here's a delicate way to put it.
