Floyd | Tuesday, 7th of February 2012 at 11:56:34 AM The U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled California’s Prop. 8 banning gay marriage to be unconstitutional. Over to Col. Renault who is no doubt shocked!

I’m of two minds on both the man and the case.
I firmly believe in the presumption of innocence and know that many of his accusers are liars, rent-seekers, or both. He’s also not given a dirty test. How do I know? The [...]

I doubt this teacher will get what he fully deserves though.

Floyd | Wednesday, 1st of February 2012 at 12:02:10 PM I’ll admit I never paid much attention to Warren Buffet — the so called “Sage of Omaha” — until he started yammering about higher taxes. Heck, I probably would have assumed he was a Republican I knew so little about him other than being a billionaire and having the Midas touch in investments. Sadly [...]

Floyd | Saturday, 28th of January 2012 at 09:14:49 AM Actress — and lesbian — Cynthia Nixon, most famously from Sex and the City, has run afoul of the gay PC mafia by stating that she chose to be gay.
Cynthia Nixon learned the hard way this week that when it comes to gay civil rights, the personal is always political. Very political.

Floyd | Tuesday, 24th of January 2012 at 04:01:17 PM Going to the dentist is squirm-inducing enough on a good day. Crap like this doesn’t help:
A former dentist in the U.S. has pleaded guilty to fraud for using paper clips instead of stainless steel posts in root canals.
Michael Clair will be sentenced next Monday after pleading guilty last week in a Massachusetts [...]

Floyd | Tuesday, 24th of January 2012 at 11:45:41 AM We all know who the losers are in Obama’s decision to nix the Keystone XL oil pipeline project… workers, gas consumers, the American economy and the country in general of course. If there are losers there must of course be winners. We already know the Gaia Cult won, but surely there are others… one [...]

Floyd | Sunday, 22nd of January 2012 at 03:49:46 AM In January of 1984, President Ronald Reagan proclaimed January 22 — the anniversary date of Roe v. Wade — National Sanctity of Human Life Day (Bush and Bush continued the proclamations, Clinton and Obama did not of course). Politically, he is correct of course in one major way… a correct and reasonable interpretation of [...]

Floyd | Saturday, 21st of January 2012 at 12:20:41 PM Here’s an “interesting” story out of Iowa from The Des Moines Register:
A Des Moines man has been arrested after police say he used, or tried to use, the identity of Iowa Secretary of State Matt Schultz in a scheme to falsely implicate Schultz in perceived unethical behavior in office.

Floyd | Friday, 20th of January 2012 at 01:16:03 PM A pretty consistent question I get from students over the years is why do liberals often appear to be either very rich or very poor. The very por are easy to explain… they are often direct beneficiaries of government largesse. But what do affluent people get from big government liberal policies like the environmental [...]

Floyd | Wednesday, 18th of January 2012 at 05:48:36 PM Indeed.

Floyd | Tuesday, 17th of January 2012 at 07:51:23 AM This is Exhibit A that despite real misgivings about all of the GOP slate of candidates…. all of them (OK — maybe not Ron Paul — but only because he’d allow WW3 to start with his foreign policy) — are a damn sight better than Barack Obama. Republicans have had it up to here… [...]

Floyd | Sunday, 15th of January 2012 at 10:10:24 AM I’ve told a cop he couldn’t search my vehicle before… don’t come fishing in these waters without probable cause Ponch.

Floyd | Thursday, 12th of January 2012 at 07:53:53 PM Some Marines are in trouble for peeing on the dead bodies of some Taliban. I guess on some level I wish they hadn’t done that, but my “give a damn” just isn’t too worked about it. My main issue… why WHY did they videotape it? Good Lord that was breathtakingly dumb.
