What Caused The Debt?

July 12, 2011

What caused the debt? That sounds like an easy question. Could that be the problem? One would hope that our “leaders” could get their arms around a simple question. Well, apparently we never learn. The short-bus riders on The Hill are pretending to deal with what to do about the debt. It seems logical to [...]

Explain Yourself

November 11, 2009

In her gentle and succinct manner, Cheryl took me to task for my last post. To quote, “Who are you and what have you done with Crawford.” I did respond in the comment area but felt the need to explain more fully. Her objection didn’t specify one aspect, so I intend to address each of [...]

At The Head Of The Table

August 6, 2009

Who’s in charge? Here is an article from the New York Times illuminating the real role that al-PhARMA is playing and how the administration is prostituting itself, unnecessarily. Be prepared to be sickened. Understanding what they are doing and how they are doing it spotlights just who is in control and why the final result [...]

Luke 16:13

August 4, 2009

No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. The Biblical citation is also found, excepting one word, in Matthew 6:24. Matthew substitutes man for servant. Since the subject is public servants, I lean toward [...]

Punishing Ourselves

July 28, 2009

Few aspects of our society need more correction than the corrections system. For anyone unfamiliar with how I spend some of my recreational time, I do volunteer work in prisons with those suffering from mental illness. After a decade of such involvement I flatter myself that I have a better understanding of what goes on [...]

Yes We Can Save

July 8, 2009

You’ve heard all the good news coming out of Washington. al-PhARMA has generously offered to cut their theft by $80 billion over the next 10 years. The health insurance industry is promising to reduce their greed by 1.5% for the next 10 years. HCA and other the poor hospital corporations (ignore all of those construction [...]

A Drunken Party

June 30, 2009

Who do you trust? John Belushi got it right. Most academics get it wrong. Everyone in academia knows just what a symposium is. At least they think they know. Have you read Plato’s Dialogues? One was named Symposium. Yes, the Greeks had a word for it: a drunken party. I could have heard much more [...]

Healthcare By Salvador Dali

June 17, 2009

Where does the Congress stand on healthcare reform? Who knows? Nancy Pelosi is the leader of the House of Representatives. She has a commanding edge of Democrats over Regressives. One would think that would give her more leeway than Senator Reid. She should be able to at least make a stab at formulating a rational [...]

Prostituting Justice

June 15, 2009

They are arguing the inarguable. The Regressives in Washington are arguing an issue that should have been settled during the Truman Administration. Had we instituted a national healthcare system based on a single-payer, we would now be without a national debt. This would be true even if all the wasteful spending on the military and [...]

The Catfish Award

April 9, 2009

I am initiating a new, virtual award. It is dedicated to our endless supply of bottom feeders. The difficult part is, and will continue to be, deciding among the superabundance of candidates. If I had the time this could be an hourly award. Okay, who has the honor of being the first recipient? Bookmark It [...]
