Galvin could see the bird’s foot was somehow caught in a rope…. Galvin and his wife Jackie called multiple agencies but they say the government bureaucrats all declined to try to help our national bird. “I told them they were wrong and it was very much alive and somebody needed to help it immediately!” Jackie Galvin says…. “I...

Texas To Ignore Iran Nuclear Deal And Maintain Sanctions
by Shifra on May 17, 2016Gov. Abbott meeting with PM Netanyahu in Jerusalem earlier this year God bless Gov. Greg Abbott and the great State of Texas! Via San Antonio Express-News. Gov. Greg Abbott on Monday rebuffed a month-old request from the federal government that Texas review its Iran sanctions in light of the nuclear agreement negotiated by the United States with other world powers. Instead, Abbott said he remains determined to increase Texas’ sanctions against Iran, as he outlined in January when he visited Israel and met with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. “Because the Iran deal is fundamentally flawed and does not permanently dismantle Iran’s nuclear capability, Texas will maintain its sanctions against Iran. Further, because your administration has recklessly and unilaterally removed critical...

The Dos Equis ‘Most Interesting Man In The World’ Sent To Space, Er, Retires
by Shifra on March 10, 2016If Obama gets wind of this, he will probably be first in line to audition for their replacement. Via NY Post: “The Most Interesting Man In The World” is no longer of this world. Dos Equis has dispatched him on a one-way “Mission to Mars” — as evidenced by a 60-second commercial launched Wednesday on the company’s YouTube channel…. Hord confirmed Dos Equis will have a new “Most Interesting Man” on the air by this fall. But he called searching for a replacement “a lot of pressure.” Jonathan Goldsmith, the campaign’s star, who’s now on the back nine of his 70s, has often said he stayed in character by channeling his late friend Fernando Lamas. That explains what The New...
