Okay. So it’s been a while since I last wrote here. I’ve had back surgery, become reacquainted with a crucial family member, and am now enduring the lovely new American pastime of getting a divorce. Additionally, the Drano smoothies finally wore off and the doctors all say the coma could have been worse and the [...]

In debates with my friend regarding Health Care and it’s place in American Politics, my status as a Disabled Veteran has come up. He believes that one should not have to endanger one’s life in the service of this country in order to receive quality Health Care. The phrase “Christian Nation My Ass” has come [...]

I didn’t want to write anything in between my last posts and this event (or something else that would have been relevent to this issue) because I didn’t want to “muddy the waters”, not that anyone would have taken my word as any great source of, well, anything of substance, I guess. Via the Journal [...]

Last night I wrote a post here in which I pointed out the deafening silence that surrounds the recount of the Wisconsin Supreme Court Election between David Prosser and JoAnne Kloppenburg.

So… From Madison, Wisconsin via the AP and WLUK-TV: Prosser: 752,697 Kloppenburg: 745,691 That’s a difference of 7,006. I guess the evil Republican Party of Wisconsin and their Cat’s Paw/Stooge Kathy Nickolaus weren’t quite as crooked and/or obviously the Spawn of the Underworld that we’d been previously led to believe. How do I know this? Glad [...]
How NOT To Respond To A Protest
Posted: May 14, 2011 in Abortion, Assault and Battery, Facepalm, Liberals, Moral Equivalence, Protest, Rebuttal, ViolenceOkay… I’m going to show my moderation here…again…but I saw this post on HotAir and had to write something in support of the idea that turn-about-is-NOT-fair-play. Here’s the video in question: See that? If that guy were a Right-wing Christian attempting to protest outside of an abortion clinic, or if he was trying to voice [...]
I’m sure that you have already read a whole lot of details regarding Osama bin Laden’s death on Sunday night, so I won’t rehash anything that you probably already know… …but there is an argument going on over at HotAir about the burial rites given to Osama bin Laden. I guess that after the initial thrill [...]
Campaign Metrics
Posted: April 30, 2011 in Abortion, Donald Trump, Facepalm, Gun Rights, Jobs, Leadership, Obama, Political Acid Test, Presidential Campaign, Presidential Candidate, Primaries, RepublicanAs we approach the beginnings of the 2012 Presidential Primaries (Republican Edition), I would like to point out some platform points that I feel best serve as indicators of a candidate’s future leadership style. Political Acid Tests, if you will ( in no particular order): Gun Rights: This one is all about trust. How much does the [...]
I don’t usually do this; write more than about one post a week, but then I saw this video. WARNING: DO NOT VIEW IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO SEE GRAPHIC VIOLENCE!!! I post this link above only because in our insulated and self-imposed media isolation, we don’t realize what violence means. It is an [...]
Who’re You Gonna Believe?
Posted: April 24, 2011 in Chart Fu, Defense Spending, Entitlement Spending, Fiscal Year, Liberals, Lies, Tax Expenditures, TaxesToday while lurking on Democratic Underground, I saw a chart (scroll to comment #26) that fairly well sums up the Liberal perception of expenditures in American government: Boy! National Defense spending is teh crazy, right? I mean, holy deficits, that’s a huge portion of our tax expenditure! And the “Other” is described as including “Energy, Commerce [...]
