The French-bashing French

Friday, April 27th, 2007

It seems the French bash the French more than the U.S. bashes the French. This shows 2 things; anything is possible and the French are still fair game. Pass the Freedom fries and the mustard please.

Fudged Standards

The end is near!

The disarming of America

Friday, April 27th, 2007

Just because we see a liberal under every rock doesn’t mean they’re not out to disarm us. This piece is a great example of one of “them” letting their private rhetoric get into the public view, an inside look if you will.

Ultra-violent gang found in 42 states

Friday, April 27th, 2007

It is no surprise to me that the ultra-violent gang MS13 can now be found in 42 states. This group tends to prefer machetes because of their greater physiological effect and prey on the innocent in communities of illegal aliens.
Frequently we hear from the pro-illegal immigration crowd “what does it hurt to just […]

Oregon Gov. Kulongoski Lives on Food Stamps for a Week

Friday, April 27th, 2007

It seems the Oregon Gov has completely missed the point. Welfare isn’t supposed to be “comfortable”. People should not be able to live on food stamps to such a degree they’re content to stay on food stamps - else we’re creating an even larger problem, a welfare state. But then that’s exactly what the Democrats […]

The Gipper on Gun Control: Indepenence vs Dependence

Monday, April 23rd, 2007

“There are those in America today who have come to depend absolutely on government for their security. And when government fails they seek to rectify that failure in the form of granting government more power. So, as government has failed to control crime and violence with the means given it by the Constitution, they seek […]

Redux Randy

Monday, April 16th, 2007

Almost exactly a year ago I introduced everyone to Randy. One year and one day later who should I find nestled down in the debris I’m cleaning out of a culvert? Yup. And I know it’s Randy (Randi?) based on the damage I noted last year when I found him. It […]

Free Exercise of Industry

Monday, April 16th, 2007

“To take from one, because it is thought his own industry… has acquired too much, in order to spare to others, who… have not exercised equal industry and skill, is to violate arbitrarily the first principle of association, the guarantee to everyone the free exercise of his industry and the fruits acquired by it.”
Thomas Jefferson

Diabetics cured by stem-cell treatment

Tuesday, April 10th, 2007

Yet another study showing some pretty dramtic results with stem-cell treatments of diabetics. Yet another study showing some pretty dramatic results using adult stem-cells. For all the crying for public money for fetal stem cell research all they’ve accomplished with them is learning to create cancer - they call them “tumors” though - […]

A Tale of Two Scientific Consensuses

Tuesday, April 10th, 2007

Nice article at Reason Magazine A Tale of Two Scientific Consensuses on the politicization of “consensus” on two separate issues: Global Warming and GMO’s. Interstingly its another “follow the money” things - there is money in a “consensus” on global warming where as there is money in not having one on genetically modified […]

Sunspots reaching 1,000-year high

Tuesday, April 10th, 2007

More on the probability that global climate changes are more due to solar activity than anything else.
Wow… amazing.. who would have thought of that?

Belief in Reincarnation == Memory Errors

Monday, April 9th, 2007

Interesting if obvious, the belief in reincarnation may be tied to memory errors. Naturally anyone who has met anyone who really believes in reincarnation knows that these “memory errors” are the least of their problems….

Flouresent Light Bulbs

Monday, April 9th, 2007

Nice article on why legislating the use of flouresent light bulbs won’t reduce peak energy use allowing us to burn less of what ever it is being burned in your area to produce electricity. Simply put the home is still the largest user of incandesent light bulbs as most businesses switched to flouresent banks years […]

No Such Thing As a ‘Perfect’ Temperature

Monday, April 9th, 2007

Yet another refutation of the “scientific” global warming “consensus” this time by an MIT prof No Such Thing As a ‘Perfect’ Temperature - Leadership and the Environment.
“Consensus” - I don’t think the word means what they think it means…

John And Elizabeth Edwards Neighbor

Monday, April 9th, 2007

It seems Elizabeth is scared of her “rabid, rabid Republican” neighbor. Condescending twit.

Police bust grow operation in apartment

Saturday, April 7th, 2007

SWAT bursts through the door of the apartment:
Police: “POLICE! YOU’RE ALL UNDER ARREST!”
Tenent: “For what?!”
officer swings open closet door, points at a grow light
Police: “FOR THIS!”
Tenent: “tomatos?”

Official Surrender

Thursday, April 5th, 2007

When you capture, try and hang the enemy leader - then establish a new government - you can pretty much count that as an official surrender.
Pointman - 5 April, 2007 - in response to some idiot who said “come to think of it, has Iraq ever officially surrendered?”

The “Global War On Terror” and “Long War” are no more

Wednesday, April 4th, 2007

Or so they want you to think. The “patriotic” members of the House Armed Services Committee have banned the use of all the phrases being used to remind America we’re in a long term war against terrorist Islamofascists who want nothing more than to destroy the “great and little satan”.
When you can’t […]

Ever wonder why Briton is so screwed up? Here is a hint.
