The Republican website has a nice review of Obama’s statements concerning firearm ownership. At the same time ABC is reporting the Obama camp distancing itself from Obama’s own statements as “inartful” which isn’t even a word but gets the point across that they’ve been unexpectedly caught with their drawers down. “That statement was obviously an [...]
I love reading Ted Nugent’s writing and his take on the DC Gun Ban ruling is a satisfying read as I would expect. On the polar opposite side of the political spectrum on everything else, my favorite Progressive Sam Smith weighs in with positive comments on the Courting getting something right. Sam even includes a [...]
Despite my recent bout of pessimism regarding the case the SCOTUS blog has the ruling reflecting well on the rights of We the People. Though superficially it would appear they’ve worked very carefully to maintain the status-quo and not shake the current legal standing of any anti-gun law short of an outright ban such as [...]
So now the Supremes have ruled that death penalty for child rapists is cruel and unusual. I wonder what they think it was from the child’s perspective? This is going to be like the recent Taser ruling and I expect the consequences to be pretty immediate. If a parent has no expectation of real justice [...]
An interesting side note on the high costs of oil is that some manufacturing jobs are coming back to the US. “It’s not just about labor costs anymore,” says Rubin. “Distance costs money, and when you have to shift iron ore from Brazil to China and then ship it back to Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh is looking [...]

So now we know exactly why DC has the highest crime rate in America, it’s populated with sheeple! I particularly loved the elder woman with the eastern block accent who stated the country she came from didn’t allow people to own guns and they shouldn’t be allowed to here, either. And that worked out so [...]
Oh my! The sky is falling! The sky is falling! This is the last chance! We must ACT NOW! Yeah, now that NASA’s own data shows the warming trend ended and we’ve been in a cooling trend that has already dropped average temperatures below where we started these idiots are pumping up the demagoguery before [...]
Now that forced “racial desegregation” has been “accomplished” in the school systems (never mind that it has been a dismal failure) what about Political segregation in suburbia? The big misnomer here is that it is unnatural for people to want to associate with like minded people. For an anti-theology that espouses “nature” and embraces base [...]
