Let's see what the Obamas are having for dinner. Being the sort of people who are interested in "spreading the wealth", it might be interesting. . . From http://penetratinginsights.blogtownhall.com/2008/10/17/lincoln_outspent_michelle_obama_on_room_service.thtml <IMG...

There's talk about how some poor schlub who was picked by a power hungry politico for a 30 second soundbite (then referenced by both mad power lusters in the debate) and now the MSM is digging into his background and talking to his friends and family as if he were a VP pick. It's one thing if...

Don't forget farm aid. When one of the monster farm bills was up for consideration, some referred to it as "Moscow on the Mississippi". We pay farmers not to grow anything in many cases. Too bad nobody ever figured out what percentage of people receive some form of government handouts...

No wonder the libs hate Joe the Plumber so much. I mean, besides he is not on a government handout program. You'd think he was a VP pick or something. :D

Or even economically savy. Savy enough to understand supply and demand, say. Sadly, most Americans think that the economy is a big pizza, and if one person takes too many slices they are left with nothing but the box to feed their family (paraphrased from PJ O'Rourke). We'll continue this...

Not that McCain will be much better. Voters favor more government and more socialism in overwhelming numbers. The question becomes, how do you position yourself for easily forseeable events? It seems obvious that taxes, inflation, unemployment and government spending and debt are all set to...

Really? Think wayyyy back to 2004 when one of the big three television networks went to the mat with clearly fraudulent memos in an attempt to smear a sitting president and kill his re-election chances: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rathergate

An internet poll, lol. If those things were worth anything, Paul woulda smoked through the primaries in a landslide.

Not sure who will win, but you can bet the taxpayers will lose.

Actually there's a lot of confusion about who authored that very interesting bit. In a nutshell, nobody really knows for sure. See http://www.lorencollins.net/tytler.html (among other places)

1000:1? If you knew aliens would show up one day in a three year period that's about par. But there's no way you're picking the three years. 1000:1 is good odds for the bookie. Maybe 10k:1 might be good for the better, but I wouldn't take even that.

EliteTrader's been covering that story for a month now, sheesh: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?threadid=136131

I was there when this happened to one lib. He had been (among other things) a dancer. Through a lot of hard work, he managed to become a software consultant. Writing code in MS Acces, but still a lot better off than previous jobs. Then he got his first paycheck. He was shocked. His...

That's hysterical. Keep the power on so Americans can watch Idol and lock up the system for just two parties. Then get a big chunk of voters to blame other people for everything and offer up obviously false promises of smaller government and less taxes to bring the rest of the sheep...

Dumbest. Constitution. Reader. Ever. http://www.law.cornell.edu/constitution/constitution.articleii.html#section1 Article II, Section 1: "No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to...

A trillion here a trillion there and pretty soon we're talkin' real money. I hear Pelosi is asking for another "rebate" check that includes people who don't pay taxes. But it's Free Money! Woo hoo! Let's make it 20 grand for everybody! Tell ya what, if I was part of the next few...

I wonder how long until some politico bozo says "Well #@%& them! Let's just make their paper illegal!" It'd be like WaMu but global. FETE. Geez. It's hard to believe that people this stooopid can drive a car to the liquor store without killing half a dozen people.

So how's that boycott workin' for y'all?
