Harry Reid's Wife and Daughter Injured in Car Crash

This is really quite serious.  Altough the injuries are not "life-threatening" it is reported that Mrs. Reid has a broken nose, back, and neck.  She is 69 years old.  Those are very serious injuries for a person of that  age.  

Please pray for both Mrs. Reid and her daughter Lana.


Updated at 6:23 p.m. ET. Reid's office just put out a statement. It says the Reids' car was "rear-ended by a semi-truck" on a Washington, D.C., highway. It goes on to say:
Mrs. Reid has a broken nose, broken back and broken neck.  Lana has a neck injury and facial lacerations.  Both Mrs. Reid and Lana are conscious, can feel their extremities, and according to doctors their injuries are non-life threatening.  Senator Reid has been to the hospital and appreciates the support he and his family are receiving from Nevadans and his colleagues in the Senate.

Allen West on Harry Reid

Before I toddled off I was waylaid by this excellent article...

A Must Read:

Allen West on Harry Reid: A Black Republican on "Negro" Talk

Let's Not Waste Time

I find it inconceivable that an entire nation is wasting its collective time, energy, and angst on what  Harry Reid said behind closed doors.  I am way more interested in what this man is doing behind closed doors to take away our last shred of freedom.

If Harry Reid wishes to sit outside naked in freezing weather and howl at the moon it is of no concern to me. His putting the last nail into the coffin marked freedom concerns me greatly.  Taking over my health care at the point of a sword,  taxing me against my will and desire to fund the lifestyles of the lazy and ignorant, and paying off bribing special interests with my money, is a much larger concern.

Is there a double standard at work in this country? You bet there is - and it flows both ways.  The hours of productive work, including engaging our brain, is being wasted debating something that means nothing to our lives.

Instead of spending time tilting at windmills, it may make more sense to learn how to build a windmill. You may need to someday.

A Catholic Mom in Minnesota brings up a reasonable but easily answerable question when she asks, Why One and Not the Other?  Read it and form your own answer.

Still think things are "fair?"

"Looks like the Amish have found their “Get Out of Jail Free” card when it comes to the new Obamacare insurance mandate. I have to wonder, though…if this is the case, why can’t Christians get out of the mandate if the government insist that our tax dollars pay for abortions? That goes against our “religious conscience”, so wouldn’t that give us the exemption we need?" read the rest
One thing I might point out is that the Amish generally pay their way or take care of themselves.  But it is still valid to ask the question of why those opposed to abortion should be forced to fund the procedure.

The bigger question though,  is why are we funding anything for anyone? 

Congrats in Order

Matthew and Patrick Archbold, of Creative Minority Report, will be contributors at the new National Catholic Register website.  It couldn't happen to two more talented, funny, and genuinely good guys!

Scott Brown

Meantime Reaganite Republican (speaking of genuinely nice guys!) reminds us to support Scott Brown for senator in Massachusetts. 
Massachusetts conservative site Red-Invades-Blue is launching a Money Bomb today for the brave Republican challenger for Ted Kennedy's open Senate seat, Scott Brown.   read the rest and than donate

William Jacobson over at Legal Insurrection is covering his election pretty carefully:
Scott Brown's Money Bomb is today. The special election is a week from tomorrow.


"If you've read this blog, you know that there is a chance of victory for Brown if he keeps surging. But he needs money to do that. A Scott Brown victory may be the last chance to stop the people in the photo below from doing to our health care system what they did to the banking system and housing market." read the rest and than send a donation

Big Journalism sums it up beautifully:

Off to get some real work done...

Harry Reid - Racist or Honest?

Just a quick stop-in to post this link. All morning, while perusing the blogs and news sites, the main story was Harry Reid and "what he said."  I really wanted to post something but didn't want to interrupt my busy day.

So I'll let Stogie over at Sabepoint say it for me.  Good job, Stogie!!

One final point. I'm so tired of people taking offense and railing over each other about every perceived slight.  "I'm offended" has become modern man's mantra. 



Have you ordered Starving the Monkey's yet??
