Should the U.S. Government Be Tracking Santa? « Republican Ranting

  • Alright, I already know that I’m gonna take some heat for this post, but I’ve never been one to back down due to unpopularity. This year, like they have for the past 53 years, the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) tracked Santa as he travelled from the North Pole around the world delivering presents. Now, NORAD isn’t all U.S. funded, since it’s a joint organization of the Canadian Forces Air Command and the United States Air Force.

A September 11th Tribute: 7 Years, Never Forget « Republican Ranting

  • Today marks the 7 year anniversary of the September 11th Attacks. Today is a day that affected many Americans, if not all Americans. I can still, to this day tell you exactly where I was when I first heard about it, down to the very spot of the room.

So the Chinese Screwed Up Our National Anthem « Republican Ranting

  • OK, I watched this late last week, and NBC FINALLY posted the video on their website. It’s the National Anthem playing while Michael Phelps is winning his gold medal for the 400 meter something (I’d look it up, but my computer is a little slow right now).
