Republican Presidential Campaign Family Night

I like to mock the Green Bay Packers Family Night.  It’s fine that the team wants to hold a training camp practice inside Lambeau Field–but the way the fans and media treat it–like it’s the most important event of the pre-season–is what is laughable.   Fans actually pay for the “honor” of attending the practice. …READ MORE

Making Grandma Cry

In today’s edition of the Poor Parenting Report we learn about a CNN reporter who does not require her daughter to hug her relatives if she doesn’t want to do it.  Katia Hetter entitles her story “I Don’t Own My Child’s Body”  Hetter (and “experts”) claim that by allowing her 7-year old to decide who…READ MORE

Our Fat and Lazy Future

There is a video making the rounds on social media that I hope serves as a real eye-opener for parents.  It features three generations of families–grandparents, parents and children–with each member talking about what they did (or do) for fun as kids: <iframe width=”640″ height=”360″ src=”https://www.youtube.com/embed/is5W6GxAI3c?feature=player_embedded” frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen></iframe>   It turns out to a commercial for…READ MORE

Forced to do Our Part

Today, President Obama will begin the full court press to sell his new plan to convert the American economy from one built upon affordable energy production to one that will be shackled by higher costs and the whims of Mother Nature.  Of course, he won’t be promoting his new environmental restrictions like that.  Instead, it…READ MORE

Missing the Point

You know what is the most inaccurate phrase in the English language?  “New and improved”.  Often the product, idea or service being advertised with that phrase is neither new nor improved from the “old and standard” product, idea or service it is looking to replace.  And now “New and Improved!” is coming to one of…READ MORE

Justice–NFL Style

As a Pittsburgh Steelers fan I’m glad to see that Jimmy Garoppolo will likely be the starter for the New England Patriots when they host the Black and Gold for the opening game of the NFL season.  Barring a legal injunction from a Federal judge, Tom Brady won’t even be in Gillette Stadium that night–as…READ MORE

The Eternal Guilt Trip

I sometimes wonder why we don’t have a steady stream of liberals jumping off of bridges and tall buildings in America.  There is no greater source for guilt and self-loathing than those on the left.  I found the latest example in a tweet from Slate.com on a man who writes about how much he hates…READ MORE

Better Off Not Succeeding

While My Two Cents was on its annual EAA Airventure hiatus, golfer Jordan Spieth saw his attempt to complete the single-season Grand Slam come to an end–missing a playoff at the British Open by just one stroke.  As much as I like Spieth and want to see history made, it’s probably a good thing that…READ MORE
