"Hillary should be president of the universe!"

Democrats and Republicans are at each other’s throats.
What can possibly unite them? How about a few laughs?

"Abortion is *$*%*@ awesome!"

By quinersdiner | October 10, 2013

“Abortion is *$*%*@ awesome!”
The expletive from the man probably made him feel good. “Boy, that really put them in their place,” may have been his mindset as he hurled his invective at the praying crowd at Planned Parenthood. And profanity is often a tool of the inarticulate.
He does pose an interesting question, don’t you think? An entire political party thinks abortion IS awesome. So what could possibly be awesome about abortion? I think the human abortion crowd would identify three “awesome” aspects of unfettered human abortion:

La-de-da politics

By quinersdiner | October 10, 2013

“Tell me one thing you like about your opponent.”
This is one of those sappy questions lightweight political reporters ask of candidates in a debate.
Most candidates intensely dislike their opponent. This question puts them in a position of being disingenuous at best, and lying through their teeth at worse …

The fruit of the Obama presidency

Musings on Washington D.C.

By quinersdiner | October 9, 2013

Barack Obama has never had to make anything.
He has never built a business.
He has never had to meet a payroll.
For the record, there is nothing wrong with that. His gifts lie in different areas. When you look at the vast expanse of our federal bureaucracy, which consists of some 2,700,000 employees, few of those folks are entrepreneurial in nature either. If they were, the federal bureaucracy is the worst place in the world for them to work, characterized as it is by rigid rules, regulation, and political correctness …

National Muslim Appreciation Month has been canceled!

By quinersdiner | October 8, 2013

By Tom Quiner Sometimes when something seems too outrageous to be true, it’s not true. One of those is “National Muslim Appreciation Month.” I ran a letter from a Quiner’s Diner reader expressing her shock that such a thing could happen. I didn’t check the story out until after I posted her letter. According to Snopes, it was all a bit of satire that gained legs on social media. Barack…

Get ready for Muslim Appreciation Month

By quinersdiner | October 8, 2013

In one of his many Executive Orders, President Obama, has recently announced that he is declaring November as “Muslim Appreciation Month” citing all their valuable contributions to our society, and lamenting how many have been killed in the recent wars in the Middle East …

Liberal comedian, Bill Maher, belittles WWII war heroes

By quinersdiner | October 7, 2013

Bill Maher makes millions being nasty to nice people.
He safely surrounds himself with adoring fans who laugh at his every profane-laced putdown of people with whom he disagrees politically.
On the other hand, our World War II veterans sacrificed their lives to protect the free speech rights that allow the likes of Bill Maher to vomit his brand of bile on high profile television shows.
Our WWII heroes were not surrounded by adoring crowds. They were surrounded by an enemy that wanted to kill them …

The petty presidency of Barack Obama

Hitler was no match for the "Greatest Generation." Obama didn't have a chance.

Marc was stationed in Afghanistan for thirteen months.
The place sounds like a living hell. He said you never knew when violence could erupt. Marc, a friend of mine, was there to rebuild roads. His unit wasn’t there to destroy; they were there to build. And yet an invisible sniper took aim at Marc one day and pulled the trigger.
The bullet headed for his brain …
