Amnesty Hypochondriacs (And GOP) Get Their Just Rewards

As expected (and predicted here) the same comprehensive immigration reform package pushed by President George Bush twice (2006 and 2007) will be pushed by President Obama later this year: In broad outlines, officials said, the Obama administration favors legislation that would bring illegal immigrants into the legal system by recognizing that they violated the law, […]

Republican Blunders Continue

Published by under All General Discussions

This is one reason why the GOP has lost its way – out of control nativism:  A North Texas legislator during House testimony on voter identification legislation said Asian-descent voters should adopt names that are “easier for Americans to deal with.” The comments caused the Texas Democratic Party on Wednesday to demand an apology from […]

Damning Congressional Report On Bank & Real Estate Bailiout

It’s called TARP, which stands for Troubled Assets Recovery Plan. “Troubled Assets” is the euphemistic label given to real estate that was offered to people without sufficient financial capabilities to own the size home they bought due to liberal policies hoisted on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac by Rep Barney Frank, Sen Chris Dodd and […]

Stealing Or Free Advertising

Published by under All General Discussions

AP news is not a very good news source, except it still has distant reach to far away places. It is a biased news source which is usually half correct at best in the information or message it conveys. It’s product is shoddy and I link to their stories for current events. Right now AP […]

Will The Right Learn Their Lesson? – Updated

Published by under 2010 Elections

Update: I have always been a conservative independent. I came close under President Bush to finally joining a party again (was a democrat growing up). But the far right and their backstabbing of Bush reminded me of their backstabbing of Reagan – which reminded me too much of the far left ,which caused me to […]

The End Of The Global Warming Myth

The high Priests of the Church of Al Gore/IPCC have been predicting pending global doom for coming on 20 years now. There so called scientific models predicted if nothing was done about CO2 levels over that period the Earth would warm up by 0.6° C since 1988-90 (within the range of 0.4°-1.0° C). It never happened.

A Good Day In Iraq For President Obama

President Obama has always had the opportunity to really shine. Our country gives a lot of deference to the person sitting as Command-in-Chief (rightfully so). I am really glad to see two things on Drudge today and want to memorialize them as a good day for President Obama. The first is this heart warming picture […]

Religion Is Not God

Published by under All General Discussions

I am a spiritual person. I believe there is a force for good and destruction (a.k.a. evil). I believe these forces permeate everything living and elemental. I believe the forces of nature are an engine which produce wondrous and horrible events, conditions and change. I believe if one follows the path of ‘good’ one will […]

The Obama Defense Budget Makes A Lot Of Sense – Updated

Published by under All General Discussions

The outline of the new DoD budget priorities by the Obama administration is very, very good. The knee-jerk far right will find some marginal issues to moan about – because every large federal plan has marginal issues someone will moan about. But the fact is there is a lot of good stuff in this plan. […]

When Politicians Play Scientist

Al Gore, the doomsayer of Global Warming, has nothing on the Mayor of L’Aquila who decided he knew more than a certain scientist. A scientist who predicted a deadly earthquake was imminent. A scientist who was outside the ‘consensus’ bubble of other scientists feeding from the government’s trough. The Mayor knew more, and at least 100 […]
