More Breakthroughs In Adult Stem Cells

A short notice on a recent announcment on adult stem cell research. After that is a long winded review of my views on stem cell research for new readers to understand where I am coming from on this subject. An article on the Annual Meeting of the International Society for Stem Cell Research highlights recent […]

Government Taking Land, Part II

A comment on the previous posting on this subject mentioned Land Between the Lakes, Kentucky as a history lesson of sorts. While this example reflects the use of eminent domain as we have hostorically thoght of it – to remove economic blight, it reminds us how we got where we are today. One have to […]

Government Taking Private Land

12/31/05: Nominating this as my best post for 2005 to the Stop The ACLU survey. One good thing came out of the US SC decision yesterday regarding eminent domain. It brought a spotlight on the socialistic moves afoot in this country to remake America into something we do not want. How many of us have, […]

Kelo Is A Tipping Point

I am struck with what should be a random series of events playing out as a tipping point that could create a massive shift away from the remnants of liberalism and toward conservatism. The two events are Durbin’s disasterous hyperventilating on GITMO and the US SC decision in Kelo. I won’t belabor Durbin’s now infamous […]

Downing Smith Strikes Again

Michael Smith must think people are so stupid he can make things up with impunity, and no one will see the illogic of his statemments. Either that or he was incredibly naive about what war entails, and the work it takes to win the peace after the fighting is over. Thanks to Bill Crawford at […]

Doom and Gloom Democrats

Democrats are crystallizing their ineptitude and ability to be easily intimidated in the world – not a good thing when one thinks of national security or homeland security. Ted Kennedy’s ridiculous whining about how hard it is in Iraq, it’s a quagmire, we must cut and run, it’s too hard, is going to mean a […]

Stem Cell Snake Oil

Folks, when I try and write quickly to catch up, I end up becoming incoherent. The wife catches these all the time and is constantly running behind me cleaning up the text. I got an email on this post so here is the more coherent version: This article in SFgate is a classic example of […]

Karl Rove Comments

Published by under All General Discussions

He is NOT an elected official (Senators) of this country, He did NOT disparage our military or our country, He did NOT help the recruitment PR for terrorists, He did NOT make baseless claims (he just stretched them too far and too broadly). So there is no meat there. Democrats would have been smarter to […]

Supreme Court Makes GOP Case

Sorry for the light posting today – lots of meetings today, all day. The Supreme Court’s decision on eminent domain, while completely unconstitutional and dispicable, gave the GOP a huge advantage in the upcoming Supreme Court judicial nomination fights. All the GOP has to do is point to the ruling as ‘extraordinary circumstances’ to fight […]

Earth To Dems…

Published by under All General Discussions

The democrats strategy these days seems to be one of mindless fixation. In the Washington Post today we learn that Sen Carl Levin is planning to hold up a nomination for defense policy chief, because he wants information on the outgoing chief! And why does he need information on the outgoing chief in order to […]
