Chile’s earthquake may speed earth’s rotation

Oh for the love of God, can we just go back to worrying about global warming. Heck what’s it all matter anyway – all life parishes on December 23, 2012 or there about.
Anyway for those of you without enough to worry about: Chile Earthquake May Have Shortened Days on Earth.

Claire McCaskill gets it

Re: the “manufactured health care mob” Claire McCaskill seems to get it (via twitter), even though most of her party doesn’t. It gets pretty interesting when the politicians of a representative republic lose their way or perhaps intentionally stop listening to those who elected them.
I try to keep the political posting here to [...]

Glad to meet you, I’m Negative Nancy

So today I’m Negative Nancy, all because I pointed someone to Preston Gralla’s article, “Why Chrome OS Will Turn to Lead“.  They didn’t even want to hear a differing opinion, sorta like sticking your head in the sand pretending all is right in the world, I guess.  I don’t know if Gralla is right or [...]

Spector becomes a Democrat – again

Anyone surprised that Arlen Spector would switch political party, yet again to win an election?
Personally, I’d rather see the Dems hold 90 seats in the Senate than keep just one of these so called moderates. Now, lets go chase out the rest of the pollution.

I wasn’t as young as this little boy, maybe 10 when we got Tasha, my sister was pretty young [...]

The demise of Capitalism

When one considers the spectacular success, the unprecedented prosperity, that capitalism has achieved in practice (even with hampering controls) — and when one considers the dismal failure of every variety of collectivism — it should be clear that the enemies of capitalism are not motivated, at the root, by economic considerations.  They are motivated by [...]

Election — thankfully that’s over

There were days when I thought this election would never end, but fortunately, time marches on and the end has in fact come. I try to keep the political posting to a minimum around here, but a few leaked out recently, so I figured it’s worth a wrap up. I’ll keep it short.
This past elections [...]

Spreading the wealth

As the election draws closer, I’m just overflowing with too many thoughts to keep to myself.  Those who’ve read this blog for awhile know that I’m a huge Ayn Rand fan.  I was introduced Anthem at a young age and have been hooked ever since.  It’s funny (not really) how the more things change, the [...]

White House for sale

I’ve been steering clear of political postings for awhile now, but occasionally, something’s gotta give.  There just doesn’t seem much to be proud of these days and recently reported fund raising numbers from the Obama campaign struck home.
Yeah, he’s different alright –he’s personally taken the political machine to an entirely new level.  It no longer [...]
