Centrists Now Control Future Of Obamacare

Published by under All General Discussions

As I noted when Sen Snowe allowed the health care bill in the Senate Finance Committee to pass the centrists now control the path of the health care debate, and they are rising up in opposition to government rationed health care (a.k.a., the “public option”). And not just any centrists but one who makes liberals […]

Armageddon Delayed Half A Century

After 30 years of failed predictions of pending doom from Global Warming, the alarmists have once more adjusted their unproven hypotheses as to when we will be experiencing natural disasters (which strangely have occurred many times in Earth’s history without human produced CO2). This time, to ensure there is no chance nature can prove them […]

GOP Crush In VA, Dems Way Off Track

This fall’s elections in VA, NJ and NY-23 are turning out to be really bad for the Democrats. In NJ and NY-23 there are two candidates opposing the Democrats, yet the combined anti-Democrat vote is not in doubt. And it is not pretty. This is not a surprising response from the nation’s electorate given the liberal […]

Context And Perspective: Swine Flu & Afghanistan

The news media lives off exaggeration and hype. They continuously apply their ignorance on all things scientific to create searing headlines to generate business and money. They should understand that this irresponsible behavior of yelling ‘fire’ when there is barely any smoke is one of the many things that have turned Americans off to their […]

Ares I-X is the initial test launch of the new launch vehicle for the Orion 6 person capsule which is slated to replace our aging Shuttle fleet (sometime in 2015). Ares […]

New Threat For Islamo Fascists

You can always tell who the enemy is of the Islamo Fascists – they bomb their enemy’s innocent citizens into oblivion (they could never wage an up front war as honorable warriors). From Iraq this week we learned who and what is the current greatest threat to Islamo Fascism: As the floodwater from broken water […]

Humans Are Meatware

Being a systems engineer I think in terms of Hardware and Software, and the often forgotten Meatware – the human operator. Its a bit of a sick engineer joke (not meant to disparage), but I never claimed to be a guiding beacon of morality. Anyway, I bring this history up as a way to introduce […]

Fly By 10_26_09

Sorry for the light posting, having to take care of business issues, thanks to the fact Congress has yet to pass this year’s budget. You would think with wide margins in both houses of congress and the presidency the Democrats could get their work done on time. Anyway, some interesting reading. Rasmussen now shows the […]

What’s Good For The Goose …

Published by under All General Discussions

This interesting idea came through my email today: Dr. Mr. Obama, Like most folks in this country, I have a job. I work, they pay me. I pay my taxes and the government distributes my taxes as it sees fit. In order to get that paycheck in my case, I am required to pass a […]

Unemployment Spreading, Thanks To Liberals’ Faux Stimulus Bill

Alternate title: Liberal Stimulus Bill Puts 2 million Additional People on Emergency Unemployment The state by state unemployment figures came out yesterday and it is not a very pretty sight. There is no recovery in progress, not for most of America, because the job losses keepl piling up (albeit at a slower rate): Unemployment rose in […]
