Video of the Day: Queen Michelle Rolls Eyes at John Boehner—Video Goes Viral

The first lady’s new bangs did not conceal the queen’s eye roll after listening to a comment from the Ohio Republican congressman and Speaker of the House of Representatives, John Boehner and who incidentally, is second in line to the presidency.  Could the queen's ill-manners and behavior become a liability to her husband in his second term?

If the queen  can’t mind her manners at the grown up’s table,  maybe she should be moved back to the “kid’s table." (a.k.a. cards table).

She’s obviously no Jacquelyn Kennedy or Laura Bush.

Video of the Day: Sen. Diane Feinstein in '95: “If I Could Ban Every Single Gun, I Would”

oh, my goodness, the good lady from California must have forgotten her oath of office:

I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.

  The Second Amendment (Amendment II) to the United States Constitution is the part of the United States Bill of Rights that protects the right of the people to keep and bear arms and states:

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

 Seems pretty straightforward yo us.  Maybe the lady from California should bone-up on her understanding of the U.S. Constitution.  “… if I Could Ban Every Single Gun, I would...”

Video of the Day: Birth of a Team and a Legend

We hope you enjoy his short look back at one of, if not the greatest franchise in sports history.  In putting this together we learned a lot of things about the Packers we never knew.

On August 11, 1919, a score (20) or more husky young athletes, called together by Curly Lambeau and George Calhoun, gathered in the dingy editorial room of the old Green Bay Press-Gazette building on Cherry Street and organized a football team.  At the time, and obviously they did not know it, but that was the beginning of the incredible, gloried legend of the Green Bay Packers. 

Lambeau and Calhoun struck the initial spark a few weeks before, during a casual street-corner conversation. It was apparently a "Why not get up a football team?" remark, but once they were interested, they wasted no time.  Read more…

Here is a look at the humble origin of this sports legend.  Rather arcane by today’s standards.  Today's high school l teams are better equipped than these guys were.
