It seems the worst is over (thank God!), but it’s not too late to send your prayers to Patrick, the Paragraph Farmer.  On Tuesday, he and his daughter were in a car accident and, while he walked away, his daughter was ejected from the car and hit her head.  She’s

Please watch this only if you have a strong stomach and a true desire to see what life is like in a totalitarian regime. This is not about watching a snuff film (although it felt like it). This is a reminder to Americans about the government Barack Obama is currently

Remember, Republicans are stupid; Democrats are smart.  Or are they?

If this story doesn’t make you see red, nothing will.  (And yes, there may be facts we don’t know, but the facts as presented show a Big Brother mentality that is just sickening.  I’ve blogged about this issue before.)

Sorry for the blog silence.  It’s been a busy day, although in a nice way.  I got a delightful haircut, swam with my children, and have had a reasonable amount of paying work.  I’ll post the Watcher’s Council results, but you can also consider this an open thread. Winning Council

In the past, I’ve tried to explain that the Nazis were not right wingers and that the nomenclature of “left” versus “right” is pretty meaningless in today’s political world.  Matthew Burden takes on the same issue in his Cavuto interview, explaining that American conservatives are not the same as white

Obama’s thinking:  The last time the American people got exercised enough to rebel and overthrow a government was more than two hundred thirty years ago.  Slight dip in the economy notwithstanding, they’re fat and happy, they like me, and they’re going to sit idly by as I effect the complete

I’m showing my age, but I just had to listen to the Bee Gees, and I think this is one of their best: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrUAMvd9cyQ[/youtube] UPDATE:  Ask and you shall receive: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBR2G-iI3-I[/youtube] And yes, I agree, this was one of the greatest songs the disco era produced, although I would be

“Hey, Mom!  I know what I want to be when I grow up.  I want to be a terrorist.  Because if you do it right, the US Government will pay for you to live in a tropical paradise, all courtesy of the US taxpayer.  Woo-hoo!”

Many have commented on the myriad factual errors Obama made his Cairo speech.  These mistakes must have been deliberate, because they are the only way that he could justify his conclusions.  That is, the facts do not support Obama’s conclusions.  One sees this most clearly when contrasting Obama’s speech to
