Stupid Law

June 15, 2011

Everybody seems to have one, usually more than one. Yeah, you thought you knew what I was going to mention, until I said that usually it was more than one. Actually, you would have been close. Arms? Fingers? Toes? Televisions? Cars? No. I am not alluding to anything desirable or useful. I refer to idiots [...]

Corporate Transvestism

June 3, 2011

It is now okay to own up to your obsession with Betty Crocker or Ronald McDonald. As a kid I found myself attracted to the Morton’s Salt young lady. A handful of salted peanuts can bring up memories of days gone by. Carrying a torch for Sara Lee or Big Boy was never really akin [...]

Ready, Aim, Misfire

January 23, 2011

Although I have never marched around dressed up funny with a bunch of weirdos, I have studied the Constitution. I find it amazing how people that haven’t displayed any particular affiliation with government, history, law enforcement, responsibility, weapon use, constitutional law or the English language are convinced of their expertise on all of these subjects. [...]

Class Warfare

October 15, 2010

Yes, class warfare has been waged against those of the middle class and the poor for decades. No, the middle class and poor have not been fighting back, at least not yet. I am suggesting a new and different strategy for at least the first significant counterattack. The plutocrats have handed us the weapon we [...]

Public Enemy

August 4, 2010

I have often wondered if the FBI and the Keystone Cops share the same parentage. I will explain my lack of regard for this august body in just a bit. The FBI was brought to mind by an article I read. It reported that Wikipedia had been threatened if they did not discontinue displaying the [...]

Size Matters

April 23, 2010

Pew Research has come out with a new poll. I know it’s difficult to believe but people complain of big government. Only 22% feel that big government is acceptable. Would you like to be in that elite group? Would you care to guess where my sympathies lie? I would appreciate you reading this post and [...]

Digging Deeper

April 7, 2010

Back in September of 2008 I posted an article that has special pertinence this week. Stay with me. We will get to that after a few facts concerning this present explosion. I’m sure you have heard of the mining disaster in West Virginia. It is the worst we have experienced in over two decades. It [...]

Silly Suit

March 23, 2010

Thirteen states have filed a lawsuit claiming that the healthcare bill is unconstitutional. Will they win or are they just wasting taxpayers money in an attempt to look good to their political bases? If you guessed the later, you didn’t require anyone to read this to you. Given that we have five Supremes who can’t [...]

Save Us From Patriots

March 10, 2010

Did someone revise the English dictionary while I wasn’t looking? Reading and watching the news is disconcerting and disorienting. Liz Cheney, a graduate of law school and self-proclaimed patriot, calls the Department of Justice the Department of Jihad. Why? Because seven attorneys in that department once represented terror suspects before the courts. This law school [...]

Supreme Stupidity

January 25, 2010

Despite what some may think, I was not around for the Dred Scott decision. That aside, I had comforted myself that the Supremes could not make a worse ruling than the one that gave us Bush the lesser. I was wrong, horribly so. We are now the only developed country in the world that allows [...]
