Indianapolis is often referred to as a “bright blue dot” in a big red state. That’s why it should come as no surprise to anyone that the city has an estimated 105% voter registration. Good work, Indy! In other news, there are some internet rumblings that maybe Obama was a member of the New Party) after [...]
The “Bush’s Failed Economic Policies” is incredibly pervasive. Of course, blaming the president for the economy is a knee-jerk, if intellectually lazy, thing to do but you can’t say that the practice is not encouraged by presidential candidate’s promises to “fix” the economy. Nevertheless, it’s interesting that Bush is taking so much heat for the [...]
This doesn’t sound like good policy to me: While the Alaska State Troopers and most municipal police agencies have covered the cost of exams, which cost between $300 to $1,200 apiece, the Wasilla police department does charge the victims of sexual assault for the tests. Of course, the cheap political move is to [...]
Biden? Really? That’s the best he could do? The biggest draw to Obama is the mostly scandal-free, “not business as usual” angle. So, what, he felt he was at a disadvantage because he didn’t have any typical Washington bullshit floating around his campaign and felt compelled to add some? He chose a law school plagiarist and resume-padder. [...]
It’s interesting, really. Anti-Obama folks call him “elitist” as though that’s something new for a politician and those who like him take such great offense as though it’s not true. If we’re going to be honest with ourselves, I think we have to admit that most politicians are tremendously out of touch with the daily [...]
All of the fear-mongering about Peak Oil and Global Warming are really funny when you stop to think about them. People have such a tremendous lack of perspective about things. You see, these problems are, in the end, market problems. Peak Oil to a much greater degree than global warming, of course, but they both [...]
If freedom of speech means anything at all, it is the freedom to say things that people do not want to hear.~George Orwell There are certain words and phrases, the simple mention of which immediately evoke irritation, disdain, and trepidation in the American consciousness. Not the least of these phrases is “thought police.” It’s not that [...]
This post about (surprise) a liberal that doesn’t understand how to run a military not withstanding, I’ve been considering voting for Obama in November. I will allow time for those that have fallen out of their chairs to return. Okay, so why would I do such a thing? It’s simple….
Yesterday I drove back to Bloomington to get the rest of my stuff. I got almost all of it, but along the way I saw a billboard. It was something like this: Which, to me, sounds a lot like this: More evidence is now coming out that makes the current propaganda thinking global warming sound suspiciously like [...]
…nobody will do it, right? One of my crazy, leftist facebook friends posted a link to a “lie in”. They’re protesting how easy it is for “dangerous people” to get guns. Obviously making it harder for everyone to get guns will solve the problem, right? So people who obey the law will have even more hurdles [...]
