Capitalism, is almost a perfect reflection of the natural word – those that hunt and gather have a greater chance of survival than those [...] Unsafe at any speed Some of you may have heard Bill Maher’s recent statement about President Obama’s difficulties passing legislation. Mr. Maher said, “You know, they’re talking about 60 votes they need. Forget this stuff. You can’t get Americans to agree on anything. Sixty-percent? Sixty-percent of people don’t believe in evolution in this country. He [...] Frequent Threedonian Flyer David Marcoe asked us to visit Our GOP Forums, where David is one of the moderators.

However, almost the first post that I ran across was this, in [...] It could be… It might be… It is! Yesterday Floyd gave NEA Director Rocco Landesman an apropos and skillful dressing down based on Rocco’s comments in a recent speech. Today Jonah Goldberg teed it up and (no offense to Floyd) knocked it into the cheap seats. Floyd and Jonah have pretty much guaranteed Landesman will be met with [...]

I had had a lot of them in my 20s and early 30s so I knew what it was almost before I even felt the icepick in my ear. Off we [...] I post this story from the newspaper for purely selfish reasons. It boils my blood to read about a person who wakes up every morning in their own bed, drives their car to work, flies an Uninhabited Aerial System (UAS) from a work station for several hours and at the end of the day [...] While many strident liberals begin to question the Obama administration for its incessant whining about George W. Bush, don’t look for it to end. Hillary Clinton was in Pakistan today, fending off accusations from questioners that the U.S. favors rival India.

Share on Facebook Governor Schwarzenegger sent the above message in vetoing the bill of an Assemblyman who had earlier told Arnold to “kiss my gay ass.” His office is saying it was a “coincidence”. Yeah right.
