Bob Basso author of “Common Sense” plays the role of Thomas Paine. He wants to ignite a change in America that includes Patriotism and Pride.

It doesn’t get much better than this.

Sam Tageson, a lifelong San Jose Sharks fan, was able to fulfill his dream Tuesday, as he signed a one-day contract with the team. The 17-year-old practiced with the team and skated through the shark head before San Jose’s game with the Florida Panthers.

According to the Contra Costa Times, Tageson was born with a heart condition called hypoplastic left heart syndrome, leaving him with only two heart chambers instead of four.

Last Thursday, KVML listeners were treated to a heated argument between talk show host Laura Ingraham (weekdays 3-6 PM) and Republican Congresswoman Renee Elmers of North Carolina.

Elmers slammed Ingraham for taking an “ignorant position” for opposing immigration reform. Ingraham appeared to have gotten under Elmers’ skin by repeatedly accusing her of spouting liberal talking points.

“I’m not going to take an ignorant position on this as you have on this issue,” Elmers said after explaining that farmers in North Carolina support reform.

“So it’s ignorant to follow the rule of law, to believe in an orderly process of immigration and to follow our sovereignty not our emotions?” Ingraham countered.

Elmers responded by telling Ingraham to get her “facts straight.”

“I have my facts straight, Congresswoman, believe me,” she fired back. “I’ve been working on this issue for about 10 years, and the American people are not with you. La Raza and Chuck Schumer are with you.”

As of this week, Elmers remains registered as a Republican and is running for re-election against a North Carolina “tea party” candidate.

People seem to have no problem in signing a fake petition that supports Karl Marx for the Democratic Party President in 2016. They are told that “Obama has endorsed him.” This was filmed in San Diego, California.

On St. Patrick’s Day 2014, shortly before 6:30 in the morning, a 4.4 earthquake struck the Los Angeles suburb of Westwood, California. The quake was shallow, so it was sharply and widely felt. Here is what it looked like on television station KTTV.

In 2012, Republican Presidential candidate Mitt Romney claimed that Russia was the #1 geo-political foe. Several of the nation’s most powerful Democrats were aghast and were quick to mock Mr. Romney for his poor “out-dated judgement” regarding his thoughts on Russia.

In 2014, Russian President Vladimir Putin invaded eastern Ukraine despite President Obama’s orders, warnings and demands not too.

Without any public apologies for their degrading election year comments, it could easily be assumed that Democrats remain cold-war deniers.

Last year, Jeff Gordon scared the (heck) out of a car salesman. Then came the doubters. Numerous people claimed the video was probably staged and couldn’t have possibly been real. So this year Jeff Gordon went directly after one of the video naysayers by giving him a little ride he’ll never forget. The result? Once again, hilarious!
