Presidential Quick Hits
Last night, I stood five feet away from the leader of the free world.
Entertainment Weekly has released it’s pick of the top ten movie car chases. Sadly, the Blues Brothers’ chase only landed #7. The French Connection placed first.
In December, M. Stanton Evans is releasing a new book about Sen. Joe McCarthy. I’ll be on edge until then.
Ohio, Kentucky’s ugly neighbor to the north, plans on setting in place the strictest abortion laws in the country. Their proposal, which would outdo South Dakota’s new claim to fame, would ban all abortions, even in the case of the “mother’s” (I guess if it’s not a child, she’s not a mother) health being at risk. It would also make it a felony to transport a woman to a different state to suck a fetus’ brain out. I’m glad states are finally demanding their rights back, originally raped from them under Roe v. Wade, but jeez…
Markos Moulitsas, a blogger who screeched “Screw them” in response to two American Blackwater contractors hanging lifeless from a bridge in Iraq, is rather feverish over the clearing of Karl Rove in alleged perjury claims. He whines that Rove is attacking “war heroes,” bringing to light the truthiness of Ms. Coulter’s chapter on the liberal doctrine of infallibility. Don’t you dare question someone who was in combat, lost a loved one, or sent a husband on a trip to Niger!
Three Club Gitmo detainees have committed suicide. Knowing that, I think I slept a little better last night.
New Jersey Democrats are calling for “New Jersey retailers to ban the sale of her book throughout the state.” To see my opinion on this matter, click on the link below.
My newest column is up. Enjoy.

That is awesome that the leader of the free world was a mere five feet away from you! I hope you put up at least one picture!! Not many people can say that they have been that close to him, or any president! I have seen his motorcade about 12 times, does that count for anything?! Too bad Ari wasn't there.. :)
I think it's great he went to visit, and that he took the time to say "hi" to the troops! Hooah!
BTW, excellent post..
Thats awsome Rich!! Bill Clinton is in town here in orlando, but I didnt come 5 feet from him! Have fun over there! Love ya!
Working in the Executive Offices (Green Zone) has its perks. Your life as an Army Officer will bring you lots of perks; maybe someday you could attend a reception with the leader of the free world. Our friend's the Witt's son; Mike in the Air Force Reserves attended the leader of the free world's Inaugural Ball and a meeting with him. What a wonderful privilege you have. Enjoy.
"originally raped from them under Roe v. Wade"
Interesting choice of words, considering the subject matter. Women's rights are frequently taken from them – by states, by countries, by individuals. If America, or American states, support that, then I don't think we're setting much of an example for the "free world."
But, totally not related to politics - Good to see you're doing well, and we all miss ya here!
