Since We Last Left Our Hero...

The Flying Curmudgeon has been on a bit of a sabbatical for the last month.

There are never enough hours in the day, not to mention, energy in the body, to do all the things TFC would like to do in this life.

Since TFC last posted, Mike Huckabee (finally) dropped out of the Presidential race. Ron Paul also decided to move on to other projects.

In all fairness to Congressman Paul, apart from the nuttiness when it came to foreign policy, when it came to his theme of smaller government and abiding by the dictates of the Constitution, The Flying Curmudgeon is right there with him.

As for the "loyal opposition," it has been quite amusing to watch the two Democratic front-runners, and their minions, go after each other this past month.

The gloves are definitely off.

First, we got to watch the spectacle of Obama's pastor spewing his racist and Anti-American bilge, and watch the good Senator squirm as he tried to distance himself from the short, angry little man who has been his pastor for the last twenty years.

Does anyone really believe if he were white, that he would still have a Senate seat, let alone still be leading the race for the Democratic nomination?

Now, the Obama camp has trotted out the infamous "Blue Dress."

How long 'til we start seeing knock-offs being offered up for sale on E-Bay?

As for Ms. Rodham - she's a bald-faced liar.

Surprise!

NOT!

TFC will say one thing for her, she's got ba--s, er, chutzpah.

Anyone who has ever had even the most cursory dealings with this woman is intimately familiar with how much she hates everything about the military. (The Flying Curmudgeon has friends that used to fly her around, as well as having known people that knew members of the Presidential Protective Detail. At one time or another all confirmed what a - word that rhymes with "witch" - she is, and how much she despises servicemembers.)

This is not to say it is beneath her to use members of the military for her own purposes, when it is expedient to do so.

In case you missed one of TFC's earlier posts, check out retired FBI agent Gary Aldrich's book Unlimited Access, for a up-close-and-personal look at the former First Lady, as well as her hubbie. Also, as mentioned in an earlier post, Blood Sport gives an unvarnished look at Ms. Rodham-Clinton. Both are available through Amazon.com.

You gotta love the Ragin' Cajun', James Carville. After likening New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson to Judas Iscariot over the Easter weekend, he refuses to take any of it back. http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/home/daily/site_032508/content/01125113.guest.html

James Carville may be a lot of things, but, disloyal he is not.

That's more than can be said about Gov. Richardson. (BTW, what is UP with that STUPID goatee he is currently sporting? Is he taking lessons from Sen. Obama, and is now trying to shore up HIS bona fides with the hispanic population?)

It just keeps getting better and better.

Don't it?
