Obama Derangement Syndrome Roundup – Part 1

November 10, 2008 By Mark Draughn 1 Comment

This is the first of what I expect will become an irregular series here at Windypundit. Conservatives have been using the term Bush Derangement Syndrome as a tongue-in-cheek psychiatric diagnosis used to poke fun at liberals who hated President George Bush so much that they attributed sinister intent to everything he did. I believe I have identified a related malady that … [Read more...] about Obama Derangement Syndrome Roundup – Part 1

Jobs For Pot Smokers

Maybe now that he's won, someone will pay attention.

The First Pet

November 5, 2008 By Mark Draughn 2 Comments

Last night Obama reaffirmed a promise to his daughters: From the campaign's onset, he vowed to buy the girls a dog, win or lose. And as he stood before the country as president-elect Tuesday, he announced that America would have a new First Dog come January. "I love you both more than you can imagine," Obama told his daughters, Sasha and Malia. "You have earned the … [Read more...] about The First Pet
