In lieu of a post regarding politics (hey, even I get tired of slamming the GOP sometimes! hahaha), today’s piece will bring back Things I’m Loving Now for 2013.  Read on for a few of the artists, writers or television series I’m currently obsessed with.  Enjoy! 1. TV – The Americans – Having just premiered a […]

Good day, readers!  On this terrifically chilly day in Chicago, TheLeftyWolfe will examine a few of the highlights from this past weekend’s inaugural festivities.  What were some of the major policies pushed forward by Obama?  What does the American public think of such ideas?  Stay tuned for that, plus my two cents as well.  Read […]

TheLeftyWolfe is back in action for a quick rundown of the day’s hot topics: the gun control debate, Lance Armstrong visits Oprah, our future with India. 1. Weapons Ownership Debate – After all of the gun-related tragedies that have occurred around the U.S. over the last thirteen years or so, it seems that Washington may […]

In Part 2 of today’s mini-series on the Fiscal Cliff brouhaha, TheLeftyWolfe is here to explain the deal that was just agreed to late last night on Capitol Hill.  In a somewhat surprising turn of events (given the last two years of partisan bickering), both the Senate and House were able to pass a measure […]

For what seemed like an eternity, members of Congress, along with our newly re-elected President, have been squabbling over how best to deal with the Fiscal Cliff mess that they created themselves.  Yep, you read that correctly.  All of this banter and arguing over the dreaded Fiscal Cliff was entirely the doing of the House […]

Today’s stories are focused squarely on news from the U.S. Senate…read on! 1. Senator Daniel Inouye of Hawaii Dies – While most of you likely do not know this name, this Democratic senator from the Aloha state was, until his death yesterday, the longest-serving Senator currently in office (and 2nd all-time only to the deceased Sen. […]

1. Music – Phillip Phillips – I may no longer watch American Idol, but this recent alum of the show has me now rethinking that decision.  I first got to know the oddly named Phillips Phillips (were his parents REALLY high when they thought of that name???) when I kept seeing his first single, Home, all […]

Good day, all!  In today’s post, TheLeftyWolfe will examine the two same-sex marriage cases that the U.S. Supreme Court has decided to hear next year.  Both of these cases, as all gay marriage cases in the past, have divided Americans across the country.  In the liberal bastions of the big cities and coastlines, choruses of support fill […]

In lieu of one long article on a single topic, TheLeftyWolfe has decided to introduce a new series, Web Roundup.  Each week or so, I’ll compile a short list of two or three interesting topics from around the world and present my spin on them in a relatively short write-up (short for me, that is!).  I hope […]

Here at TheLeftyWolfe, we are getting REALLY tired of the never-ending talk in the media concerning the approaching fiscal cliff.  All the reporters and political instigators are speaking of this coming moment as if it will be the end of the U.S. as we know it (should the fiscal cliff measures go into full force).  This […]
