That said, I've decided most of us need some uplifting news, so this week's issue
of Culture Watch will focus on all the:
GOOD NEWS:
For the first time in recent years, voters
trust Republicans more than Democrats on all 10 key electoral issues regularly
tracked by Rasmussen Reports. Sometimes voters are as slow as Obama to recognize
reality.
Speaking of Obama, (again and again....) he has suffered
the worst 3rd quarter drop in approval ratings since 1953. The 9% point
decline is twice the amount of any other post-war elected president. Just so.
Tennessee is joining the growing number of states that are standing up to the federal
government, urging states to come together and create a
"joint working group between the states" to combat unconstitutional federal
legislation and assert state rights. For our liberal readers, we refer you to the
10th Amendment. For Tennesseeans, we say "Way to go!"
Speaking of standing up, Arizona
Sheriff Joe Arpaio says he has no intention of bowing to demands from the
Obama administration that he stop arresting illegal aliens.
(It seems the
only agency to lose
its authority under the 287(g) program to operate task forces that can enforce
federal immigration laws is Sheriff Joe Arpaio's Maricopa County Sheriff’s
Office.)
Bad news for Father Earth, algore: There has been a
sharp decline over the past year in the percentage of Americans who say
there is solid evidence that global temperatures are rising. And fewer also see
global warming as a very serious problem.
Alas, the
New York Times
is being forced to cut the size of its news staff by 8 percent by the
end of the
year.
Despite losing money and prestige, the NYT still refuses to acknowledge that
a good 50% of Americans prefer hard news over liberal ideology.
Last, but not least: For the
first time in 35 years, all branches of the military met their recruiting
goals for 2009.
CULTURE:
New ads are adorning subway stations in New York: they ask the question, written
simply over an image of a blue sky with wispy white clouds: "A million New Yorkers
are good without God. Are you?"
Andy Schlafly, founder of Conservapedia.com, wants to save the Scriptures from liberals with his latest venture, the Conservative Bible Project.
Check it out.

Rosie and wife Kelli splitting up |
History was made without fanfare on last weekend as William and Mary University crowned their
first transgendered homecoming queen.
A Denver alternative newspaper recently
posted an ad for what some consider the sweetest job in journalism - a reviewer
of the state's marijuana dispensaries and their products.
A Danish movie about a gay love affair between two members of a neo-Nazi group
won top
honors Friday at the Rome Film Festival. Talk about a film that just tugs
on my
heartstrings...
OF INTEREST:
7 months after the 'stimulus,' 49 of 50 states
have lost jobs. Hey,
that's only 6 million shy of Obama's promise.
Obama has another
TelePrompTer moment
and a former Fox News contributor said she had to quit, cause Glenn Beck is
just so "scary." By golly, I think I just saw a pig fly right by my window!
TOP IDIOTS OF THE WEEK AWARDS:
So many idiots, so little space. This week's top award goes to the UN. They want 'gender equity' in the war on terror. (Can I say that?) Chris Matthews ties with
Gore Vidal for Most Idiotic Statement and we have a huge new number of eco-idiots
deserving of recognition.
Check
out all these idiots here.
If these awards don't make you smile, you must be having a really bad hair day:)
Till next week, take heart. Americans are finally wising up.
