Remember this from the opening sequence of The Simpsons ? Well, here's the live action version: That's right, folks! Joe isn't driving that truck any more than your average four-year-old drives the cars at Tommorowland Speedway.

You say you want an insurrection? Well, you know...

If this was an "insurrection", and the Capitol Police allowed the "insurrectionists" into the Capitol, why are the Capitol Police not being investigated?

I started blogging back in 2008 thinking my words combined with clever Photoshops™, political cartoons, a blogroll of fellow conservatives in the blogosphere and funny videos as a change of pace for my readers would somehow make a difference in a sick and twisted world. It has not. I have been at this labor of love for twelve years. I’ve made a lot of friends along the way. They were a support system that was invaluable to me and I can never thank them enough for their guidance and counsel. The world is burning all around us. Just when I thought things in this country were actually starting to turn around after the disastrous eight years of the Obama Administration, I learned along with you all that the
