Also don't forget that the compact fluorescent bulbs contain mercury. So if your kid smashes one you have a toxic waste spill in your house.

Which just shows that the Republican Party deserves its appellation as "The Stupid Party". Had the Republicans enough sense to nominate Ron Paul the public would have had a real choice: Nobel Peace Prize winning war monger vs. actual peace. Massive deficits vs. a serious attempt at...

Where did I ever come out in favor of corporate welfare and unnecessary wars? Ron Paul is my man, hated by both the left and the neocons. In case it has escaped your attention state and local government worker health care, along with state and local government worker pensions, are destroying...

Not only is that LED "light bulb" super expensive, from the picture it looks huge and certainly won't fit in most light fixtures. Way to go, government.

Leave it to Free Thinker to post a link to an editorial by the dumbest Nobel Prize winning economist ever, Paul Krugman. He's the guy that thinks we're not getting into debt fast enough. The government subsidizes college education, with the result that the cost of such education has been...

Which so far looks like it would be Iran. Although Iran has plenty of hotheads calling for an end to the Israeli regime when it comes to actually starting a shooting war I'd place my bets on the U.S. first and Israel second.

More precisely, the $PLC has a growing definition of "hate". So every year, like clockwork, they announce that there are more hate groups than ever before. And the MSM just parrots their press release.

Nothing to obfuscate here. The KKK is a dying organization (by now there are probably more KKK P.O. boxes than KKK members) so the $PLC had to expand its franchise.

This is just more hype from the $PLC. The more "hate groups" they can find the more money they can get from frightened rich liberals, which they can dump into their Cayman Islands hedge fund. Aside from the obvious nutters like the Aryan Nations or the KKK, they list as "hate groups": 1...

Connective tissue is stuff like tendons. It's not meat. It may be safe to eat (after you've added enough ammonia hydroxide - yum!) but it's not meat.

Stu, show me the laboratory experiment that creates proteins (not just the simplest amino acids) in an way that plausibly simulates the conditions on an early earth. It is quite right to criticize a theory by pointing to the places where it effectively requires a miracle. That's exactly what...

That wasn't said by Ahmadinejad, the one to whom the quote about "wiping Israel off the map" is falsely attributed. Yes, there are plenty of hot heads in the Iranian government. We encourage them by constantly threatening to bomb their country and supporting Israel no matter what that...

I'll say it again -- in the the general election the presidential candidates always favor amnesty. (That's why I predict a surprise victory by Gingrich.) But if you look at the parties overall, almost the only people willing to enforce immigration law are on the Republican side. Of course...

You have a mighty selective memory. Yes, we always get pro-illegal alien presidents. But the only thing that stopped the Bush amnesty was the fact that the great majority of Republican congressmen voted against it. Favoring "Comprehensive Immigration Reform" (the current euphemism for...

The Democrats have plenty of billionaires but that doesn't mean they'll be generous to bloggers. I understand that the "content providers" for the Huffington post get peanuts. But Rush makes millions being a shill for the neocons. That's where the money is.

The Syrian rebels include allies of Al Qaeda. So once again we will jump in on the side of people who hate us.

Neither has Iran. This mistaken translation is of course repeated endless by Fox News.

It was not murder to go after the members of Al Qaeda, the organization that plotted and carried out the attack. It was murder to go into Iraq under trumped up charges, and is also murder to be maintaining an occupation of Afghanistan and treating as "terrorists" people who simply want their...

How many times do I have to inform the slow witted Free Thinker that he is responding to the wrong person? I don't like miraculous explanations for anything. I certainly don't like the "God made it so" explanation for the origin of life. (That of course, is no explanation at all.) But the...

Psychopaths like to boss other people around. Like Democrats do. I'm all in favor of private charity. And so is Ron Paul. Using the government to steal on your behalf is not charity.
