Argus Hamilton Quips

Here's a news item from Argus Hamilton's recent column:  "President Obama was in Chicago on Tuesday to deliver his farewell speech to the nation as his second term comes to a close. During the president's speech, he said that he came into office eight years ago believing that what unites Americans is greater than what divides us. Well, we showed him."

Here are some Tuesday morning links from Maggie's Farm, and don't miss the cartoon on "climate change"!

Here's a post we can all appreciate: Farewell to a decade of media drooling over Barack Obama.

The only reason to watch MSNBC: Fox News veteran Greta Van Susteren will be joining MSNBC next week to anchor a new evening show called "For the Record with Greta," network executives announced on Thursday.

ISIS On The Run -- Into An Airport Near You

The J.V. Team has reared its ugly head again. Is the Fort Lauderdale killer a "troubled Army vet" or inspired by ISIS to commit mass murder? And if you're so troubled, why do you always massacre others rather than just turn the gun on your miserable self?

The fact that he was able to fly across the country undetected brings back terrible memories of September 11 and makes you wonder how many other ISISaniacs are out there. 

This makes Obama's recent boast about the lack of foreign terrorist attacks seem even more empty.

Sick and Tired -- of Obama and Liberals

This is another perfect editorial cartoon by Steve Kelley, as seen at Jewish World Review.  We're sick of Obama and Obamacare, and after January 20, we'll finally start to get well.

What the Democrats are saying about Trump wanting to make America sick again just reminds me of their ad showing Republicans pushing Granny off a cliff. They are losers in more ways than one.

Twinkle Twinkle Jewish Star

How's this for a terrific editorial cartoon by Steve Kelley? I saw it at Lucianne.com today.

2016 Classical Countdown

Check out WQXR's list of 2016's most-requested classical pieces.  Several of my favorites are on this list, but sadly, Tchaikovsky's Romeo & Juliet Overture didn't make the cut.

Basically Banished

It's time for Lake Superior State University's 42nd Annual List of Banished Words, which I saw over at American Digest today. Thankfully, I have never heard or seen any of the 2017 words used; unfortunately, the word I'd like to have banished -- "basically" -- is not on this list. Must people use that unnecessary word in nearly every sentence they utter?
