I’m sure glad that 2010 is gone. In my younger days, I fully expected to be tooling around in my hoover<\/del> hover car by the time 2010 rolled around, so my disappointment is complete with the end of the year. <\/p>\n

However we were able to bust our most flamboyant phony soldier<\/a> ever, and we got the Army Times to call him Ballduster McSoulpatch<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Then there was the “front pager” that we got fired at VetVoice<\/a> over their sudden support for “the surge”<\/a>. And my award winning review of Kayla Williams’ book<\/a>. Good times.<\/p>\n

Our most significant accomplishment this year, I think, was nipping the conversation about James J. Lee, the Discovery Channel Gunman, in the bud. While the Left Wing of the country was trying to blame him on Right, I uncovered a video from our archives<\/a> in which he proved himself solidly Left with his own words.<\/p>\n

Then a few days later, TSO got a USO girl <\/a>drunk enough to marry him. And a few days after that, Matthis announces that wedding was about him<\/a> right before IVAW showed him the doo<\/a>r.<\/p>\n

And we took the VFW PAC to the woodshed<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Even Army Sergeant became an internet sensation<\/a> briefly with her only post this year when it was picked up by Pam Geller at Atlas Shrugs<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This year, we planted COB6 in a political campaign which stomped the opposition and ensconced him on Capitol Hill somewhere. That’s why you haven’t heard much from him this year. And now TAH can push our own political agenda in the halls of Congress. Those hoover<\/del> hover cars are a bit closer.<\/p>\n

We also opened the This Ain’t Hell Corporate Retreat, although Ponsdorf is the only TAH member to visit us here so far.<\/p>\n

Thanks to the thousands of you who’ve made us a tiny part of your busy lives everyday. And thanks for clicking our ads which has bumped up my income to over $30\/month. And a special thanks to those of you who’ve seen fit to send us donations. Just when I figure this ain’t worth my time any more, some of you send some money my way – you’ll never know how much that means.<\/p>\n

I think I’m going to take some time off this weekend – there are eleven other people who can write here in my stead, and they’re welcome to it.<\/p>\n

I hope that all of you have a prosperous and healthy new year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
