• PERFECTLY GLAZED HAM BY ALLY…

  —kansasprairie.net

  I don’t know how Ally does it, but here is another of her perfectly glazed hams.  I think she uses apricots, oranges, brown sugar etc., but I never know for sure. Each time it is different and always delicious.  I do know what’s for dinner. Todd, Karen and Tyler will [...]

• CHRISTMAS TIMES TO REMEMBER…

  —kansasprairie.net

  Number of comments: 4
  Dane, Todd and Allyson….way back when… This was a joyous Christmas, but a very lean one.  The striped lounge you see in the background was our “indoor” winter and “outdoor” summer  furniture. All three children were in cloth diapers…at the same time.  I was very busy. It appears Ally is not too happy [...]

  Youngest grandson left San Antonio after his certification test yesterday and landed  in Ellsworth about 4:00 this morning.  His dad  called this morning to tell me so “I wouldn’t worry”.  Actually, I wouldn’t have given it much thought until I knew he was on the road.  I’m especially happy he’s [...]

  More signs that the Senate really needs to adjourn and go home: Sen. Roland Burris (in photo), D-Ill., went to the mike to offer a version of “’Twas the Night Before Christmas” about health reform, rhyming “raucous” with “caucus” and concluding, “Democrats exclaimed as they drove [...]

  I had a call from a political candidate last night asking for my support.  I knew it was going to come eventually.  I really don’t like confrontations, but I also am not comfortable just letting things slide by.  There was a time when I might have been less blunt than [...]

• Marco Rubio — The Wrong Approach on Health Care

  —The Kansas Progress

  While you were sleeping yesterday, Senate Democrats began taking consequential steps towards approving their disastrous health care policy before Christmas. Especially during these difficult economic times, I believe they are making a mistake by ramming through a big government health care plan that will raise taxes on the American people, boost [...]

  BEIJING (Reuters) - China has issued new Internet regulations, including what appears to be an effort to create a “whitelist” of approved websites that could potentially place much of the Internet off-limits to Chinese readers.

  I hadn’t planned on emailing you today, in the thick of the holiday season, but I really think you should know about the deceptive, late night vote that Senator Specter cast last night. Sen. Arlen Specter provided the crucial 60th vote to advance the senate Democrats’ massive government-run health care bill. The [...]

  At this week’s meeting of the Wichita City Council, underperforming companies that have received economic incentives was at issue.

  My colleagues need to do health-care reform the right way and stop trying to ram through a proposal that is struggling to attract even 60 Democratic votes in the Senate. There is still an opportunity to pass legislation that would garner broader support. Providing affordable, meaningful insurance to all, supporting [...]

• Erick Erickson on Mark Kirk — Do Conservatives Need to Look in on Illinois’ Senate Race?

  —The Kansas Progress

  The question is: is Mark Kirk the most electable guy the Illinois GOP can put up in 2010? Perhaps he is, especially given his money advantage, but competent, serious Republicans in Illinois tell me that Kirk can’t win the general despite the view from Washington because Kirk cannot distinguish himself in [...]

  Obama’s sagging numbers are less a regular presidential “approval rating” than a measure of the ever-widening gulf between the messianic ballyhoo and his actual performance. For Americans interested in not pre-crippling the lives of their as-yet unborn children and grandchildren, his windy leave-’em-wanting-less routine is currently one of their best [...]
