Have fun everyone! I look forward to seeing either you or the image you think best represents you 🙂

by Gina on February 27, 2013**Promoted from the TAM Wire. Posted by Vintageport** Never thought I would see the day that Woodward would display more cajones that the GOP.

Israel Says Iran Responsible For Bulgaria Blast, Will Respond with Force
by Gina on July 18, 2012If Israel does strike I hope they take no prisoners. Via The Jewish Chronicle Online Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has blamed Iran for the bombing of a bus which killed at least three Israelis in a Bulgarian resort. He said “all signs point to Iran” and said Israel would “respond with force”.

Local media in the resort of Burgas claim the bus was packed with Israelis, possibly members of a young basketball team on their way to a training camp....

Mia Love To Speak at GOP Convention, But Not Sarah Palin or Ron Paul?
by Gina on July 17, 2012**Bumped up from TAM Wire, posted by Flaggman** Nothing against Mia Love, she seems wonderful.

Blog Update: Tammy Radio Stream Now Available for Android & Tablet, Plus a FAQ Page
by Gina on July 14, 2012As Tammy mentioned on her show, I’m helping run the blog while she’s on vacation so I decided I should start up a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page. Many of you who email me have the very similar issues. Maybe your membership expired and you didn’t know, or you need help with the log in process, etc. So, I think a public FAQ page will answer most of those questions getting you faster solutions when you need them instead of waiting to hear back from me. I’ll be asking Ed to put this as a dedicated icon link in the right hand column as soon as he can but in the meantime you can access the page here: TAMMY BLOG...
