Duh!?! And Other Interesting Stuff

First, the Duh!
Gay men get HIV, and they’re getting it faster. 12% faster, says a new CDC report.
And of course, to remind those hotheads whose brains have boiled out: HIV is the disease the US Government released in Africa to desimate the black population.
The rest of us know it’s transmitted by homosexual relations between men. [...]

Is Freedom A Resource? And Is It Renewable?

Like many Americans I am concerned with the progressive growth of the federal government. However, unlike many of my fellow Americans, I don’t blame any party, business or particular person; rather I blame the American individual. From our nation’s inception the government was designed with the bottom/up model - “a government for the people and [...]

David Limbaugh, the less bombastic, more correct brother of that dynamic duo (oh to be a fly on the wall during their childhood), has written an article regarding Barak Hussein Obama’s “reintroduction” to the American populace.
First with Gore, we joked about Gore Version 2.0 and 3.5, etc.
Then with Kerry, we just joked.
And now Obama. Following [...]

All Kinds Of Ugly

There are several things which caught my eye today, so consider this another installment of I, Pandora’s “Around The World”.
First, from the pen of Thomas Sowell comes an essay on race politics: “Mascot Politics“:
Years ago, when Jack Greenberg left the NAACP Legal Defense Fund to become a professor at Columbia University, he announced that he [...]

McCain On The Judiciary, More Reasons To Vote

I like this part of him, and for this reason we conservatives ought to do what we must to quell our gag reflexes and vote McCain into office.
In a speech on his philosophy and standards regarding the Supreme Court of the United States, John McCain specifically referenced Chief Justice John G. Roberts, Justice Samuel A. [...]

The Sun Is Shining

Scientists are now saying global warming is paused, for as long as 10 years.
They just really can’t let go of the power of fear that has been wielded over fearful people for far too long.
Reading the comments to this article, I was pleasantly surprised that clear-headed and free-thinking individuals seemed to dominate the conversation decrying [...]

Obama The Racist And Government (In)Ability

Heather MacDonald in the Wall Street Journal:
Some in Mr. Wright’s crew of charlatans have already had their moments in the spotlight; others are less well known. They form part of the tragic academic project of justifying self-defeating underclass behavior as “authentically black.”
Obama is coming out hard against the man he previously dismissed with “Oh, [...]

More Important Things

There are methods of changing our worlds so much more effective and therefore more important than government.
In America we have the ability to guide our government in ways still unequaled around even the free world. So our involvement in government is a good thing.
But it is our involvement in government, and not it’s inverse, and [...]

Government Is Not The Solution

Watching this news report regarding a real problem, the issue of blind people not being able to hear the quiet hybrid and electric cars to know to avoid them, I was both dismayed and heartened.
Near the end of the report the reported says with apparent relief “the government is going to study this, we have [...]

The second half is mostly fluff, meant to tickle ears.
But the first half is a major difference between him and his current rivals, Clinton and Obama.
McCain on foreign policy:
