My loathing of Crocs is noted at GFTS. I don’t care how comfortable they are, Crocs are ugly, ugly, boat-like shoes.
A while back, Maven Mom pledged to buy me a pair for my birthday. This past weekend, my annual b-day care package arrived, and sure enough, there was a shoebox inside.
As soon as I put [...]

Today I turned 26. Unlike previous years, I didn’t have elaborate countdowns to my birthday or expect a grand celebration. Actually, Maven Mom noted that you can tell when you’re a grown-up because you’re too busy to fuss for a week-long extravaganza. Yesterday, I forgot all about my birthday until my roommate reminded me, so [...]

One of the strange things about living in DC is seeing stories about people you know in the media. This article in The Hill and linked on Drudge is about my professor for political communication at AU. He worked in Texas politics for decades before moving to DC. We refer to him as the [...]

In an hour or so, I’m off to Minnesota for my job. Right now, I’m gazing at the pile of stuff that I’m supposed to schlep from DC to the land of 10,000 lakes, and I have to admit that I need help packing.
Normally, I’d call Maven Mom, but she’s the one who taught me [...]

Last week, I wrote about getting Grandma on Facebook. Forget Facebook. The pro-life movement needs to start with capturing grandma’s email.
Our activities translate so well onto the web. Pew’s recent Poli-fluential study found that social networking works best for progressive and social conservative issues. Isn’t abortion one of the main social conservative issues? We should [...]

If we’re going to revisit the many sins of Hillary, why are we starting with Socks the cat?
Why is anyone shocked that Hillary only kept Socks around as long as he was useful? While we’re investigating Hillary’s pet ownership, why not start with Buddy, the chocolate lab?
Remember Buddy? He was brought on the scene during [...]

UPDATE 11:20 p.m. Jindal WINS!!! Absolutely love this graphic at RedState.
The bad news is that LSU is down by 7 at the beginning of the 3rd.
Also love how NOLA.com has the game score above the election results. Football is life.
The polls are now closed in Louisiana, and all eyes are on Bobby Jindal.
Is it possible [...]

Yesterday, I went to Real Women’s Voices, sponsored by Susan B. Anthony List. It was refreshing to sit in a room with other articulate, pro-life women.
Kellyanne Conway gave a report about polling information and public opinion. Fascinating stuff. We’re fighting this tooth and nail battle over an abortion-on-demand “right” that only about 12% of [...]

Governor Romney, just when I start thinking that you’re possibly not that bad, you seek the endorsement of uber-conservative, fundamentalist Baptists?
The worst week of my life was spent at Bob Jones University.* While I consider myself a member of the religious right and an Evangelical, no love is lost between me and the institutions affiliated [...]
