To a lot of people, the name “Tiffany” brings to mind images of stained glass art at a price never mentioned aloud in the presence of anyone having significant stature in the Social Register. It is therefore interesting to note that the United States Postal Service has recently honored Louis Comfort Tiffany by putting his name and one of his masterpieces on a First Class postage stamp currently priced at forty-one cents.
There is something about this tribute that deserves some exploratory rambling. How do we explain that a man whose name is synonymous with artwork of such extraordinary artistry should be “honored” by the USPS? George Washington appeared on the 3¢ stamp in 1870. Thomas Jefferson was on the 5¢ stamp issued in 1856. Jefferson’sp stamp was issued without perforations and had to be cut with scissors from a sheet.

And he’s been doing it for years with his writing serving as the main source for some of the AP’s and ABC’s stories. He even somehow got a job with the 
How many times have we seen it where the MSM refuses to mention the Party affiliation of an accused public figure, convicted felon or otherwise notorious personage if that person in the news happens to be a Democrat? It seems to happen nearly other day in the MSM, doesn’t it? Conversely, should that newsworthy person be a Republican, well the MSM seems to fall all over themselves to mention that he is a Republican — and usually in the first few sentences. Well, it looks like the MSM is now branching out to mentioning party status even of relatives of a notorious person in the news should there be a Republican in the family! It’s as if just having a Republican family member alone explains the bad conduct as far as the Media are concerned.
On September 7th we noticed that the scandal in the Democrat Party over illegal campaign donations was 
Well, since the Fox News story that covered my G.I. Joe report on how Paramount studios is eviscerating the iconic American character G.I. Joe, turning him into some neutered international U.N-like operative, I thought I’d follow up a bit with an effort by a Mr. Michael Carvajal who has created an effort to petition Hasbro to put a halt to this bastardization of our “real American hero.”
