ABC News Sunday estimated the crowd in DC on Saturday at 60,000 people, or about enough to fill a football stadium. According to Michelle Malkin's blog, the DC police estimated it at about 1.2 million people, or twenty times the size of ABC's estimate.

And Gibb's comment on Friday about being unaware of Saturday's event is hilarious. Consider how "dangerous" of a mob the Tea Party movement is supposed to be, according to the nutroots in DC. How clueless would you have to be to not even be aware… Continue

The Drudge Report and other sites now have the text of the One's speech to kids. It is fairly harmless, other than being egocentric - count all the times he says "I" or "me" or "mine" for fun if you like. But my kid is still not going to hear it.

What makes anyone think that this is going to be a one-time event? Once the MSM decides that this was truly inspirational, or merely harmless, then it will become an annual event. No one ever tries to win over the hearts and minds of another in a singl… Continue

I don't care what the talking heads on TV say about how innocent it is for Obama to address the schoolchildren. I don't care if he only talks about being good and studying hard.

How long until it reads, like his "autobiography," as if it was written by Ayers?

My daughter's school is allowing kids to opt out.… Continue

Today I went to the Recess Rally in Johnstown, PA, which is Congressman Murtha's main office in his congressional district.

We were also interviewed by a reporter from WJAC-TV, the local television station.

We did not see Mr. Murtha while we were there; the office was closed.

Coincidentally, today I received… Continue

Today I received an email from Senator Casey, one of Pennsylvania's two senators. Previously I had emailed Senator Casey asking him when he would be holding town hall meetings on health care, as I wanted to voice my opinion on this vital issue.

The Senator replied today. His email reply had a time stamp of 11:30 AM.

The infuriating thing was, the meeting he was informing me of was held at 9:45 AM, almost two hours before the email was sent. This is nothing but insulting - to let me know… Continue
