  • Well, duh s**t!!!

    I saw this article today and my jaw just about dropped to the floor. A ‘watchdog agency’ has come out and said that the “Obama administration initiatives could increasingly expose taxpayers to losses and make the government more vulnerable to fraud.” Then Tim Geithner came out and said the following… “But under questioning from panel… Continue reading

  • Indiana and Chicago Tea Parties

    There are so many folks out there that have blogged both the Chicago Tea Party and the Valparaiso Indiana Tea Party that have great pictures and video that I will not be putting up any on my site. Please see The Middle of the Right and Founding Bloggers for some fantastic pictures, videos, and commentary.… Continue reading

  • The Growing Threat caused by Foreign Relations

    I was reviewing the news of the day. Something that has been weighing on my mind ever since I saw it was the video of the President of the United States bowing and scraping to the sharia-law loving Wahhabi despot who happens to rules Saudi Arabia. It seems that the government has no concept of… Continue reading

  • Tea Parties and Simon Jester

    My partner is probably one of the biggest Heinlein fans out there. I’ve been a sci-fi nerd ever since could read, but had never delved into Heinlein’s many-related worlds. There is a group out there at Simon-Jester.org who are building the idea of dissent against authority and have created a symbol of that, which you… Continue reading

  • To Carry or Not to Carry, That is the Question…..

    One of the blogs that I read on a fairly regular basis, Hecate’s Crossroad, had a story about a former Green Beret and his wife in Loudoun, VA who were attacked in their peaceful upper middle class neighborhood. The husband is dead and the wife is in critical condition. He had a carry permit but… Continue reading

  • Truly, this has WTF written all over it….

    Okay, just minding my own business, surfing the ‘net, checking my email. And I come across this article on AOL. If the souvenir shop helicopters for Gordon Brown’s children wasn’t classless enough, the Obamas gifted the Queen of England with a personalized IPOD. This is after Obama’s limo had to be moved because they were… Continue reading

  • Going to hell in a handbasket

    It’s been a while since I’ve posted. I think maybe I’ve gone into information overload. Firstly there have been more foreign policy SNAFUs, this time in Mexico. C’mon, I’m definitely not Catholic, but I even knew the provenance of Our Lady of Guadalupe. It’s the little things that count when we’re talking foreign policy. Just… Continue reading

  • Our Medical Sytem

    I had to go in for a procedure today. Just a little thing that could have as easily been done in the doctor’s office if they’d had the right scope. Something that struck me as I entered the belly of the beast is the way the system is set up. I felt like I was… Continue reading

  • Shell games or Don't look at the man behind the curtain

    I think that all of this AIG brouhaha is a shell game to keep the American public’s eye on the small things while bigger things are going on. I think that the bill the House passed to “take back” the AIG bonuses is the first step in a larger agenda. Fortunately, I’m not the only… Continue reading

  • Is he smoking crack??? More "Smart" diplomacy

    I just read about the President reaching out to Iran saying we can restore relations if they’d tone down their rhetoric. Rhetoric like wanting to destroy Israel. Actions like funding and sending troops into Iraq to continue the war there. Gosh, the way he’s going, we might not have to worry about the economy. All… Continue reading
