Virtual Fence: Waste of Time & Money
Thu, 24 Apr 2008 12:49:00 +0000
Well it was Oct 26, 2006 President Bush signed into law a fence for 700 of the 2000 miles of southern border:
“Within about three years, we should have about 370 miles,” said [Senator] Kyl, whose state would be virtually sealed from Mexico through fencing and other barriers.
Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Ralph Basham said [...]

Did 24 Help Obama?
Sat, 19 Apr 2008 14:46:00 +0000
So I have to wonder if the strong portrayal of President David Palmer by Dennis Haysbert in the hit series 24 helped Presidential Hopeful Obama in the American mindscape. President Palmer was the ideal man for the job for most Americans. Lets look at his qualifications:
Tall
Attractive (don’t kid yourself - these matter)
“Presidential [...]

Obama: Out Of Iraq = 80,000 Troops On The Ground
Sat, 12 Apr 2008 12:04:48 +0000
The brains behind Obama are recommending that the “Pull Out” of Iraq look a lot more like a simple force reduction. Returning us to troop levels not that far below Pre-Surge levels. While there is a significant difference in “stance” of 150k troops “on the front lines” and 80k troops in “oversight” - though [...]

Clintons: Make $109 Million; Vow To Stop Rich
Mon, 07 Apr 2008 20:16:54 +0000
That’s right since leaving the White House the Clintons have sure found a lot of GREEN. They couple’s recently released tax returns show that they have made $109,200,000.00 since 2007. That’s an average of $15.6 Million per year. Which makes you wonder if Hillary has her fingers crossed when gives campaign speeches about [...]

Official Obama Criticizer
Mon, 31 Mar 2008 15:26:28 +0000
I heard about this and I just had to laugh. Rush Limbaugh has elicited the help of his call screener Bo Snerdley to criticize Obama in areas requiring an African American perspective. Mr. Snerdley offers his criticism twice - once for whitey and once for the brothers. The translation alone makes it worth the [...]

New Financial Regulation
Sun, 30 Mar 2008 19:50:48 +0000
The Bush administration is going to propose new regulations in the financial markets, and propose consolidation of regulatory power. It is dressed in an “effort to limit Washington’s role in the market.” But I’m not so sure. The idea of consolidating power is, not surprisingly, unappealing to me. This is especially true for an [...]

Sniper Fire Or 8 Year-Olds With Poetry
Wed, 26 Mar 2008 19:22:21 +0000
This mostly got a pass the first time she told it, but apparently the re-telling of the whopper got Hillary a little more of response than she intended. You Tube and the news networks are now all atwitter pointing out just how much of a lie Hillary’s Bosnian snipers story is.
I’m actually a [...]

Robot Cops Threaten Liberty & Safety
Tue, 25 Mar 2008 13:52:56 +0000
Our good friend Patrick Bedard of Car & Driver has a excellent piece on the governmental sneaky tax: Robo-Cop.
This just in: A red-light camera on Broadway Street in Knoxville, Tennessee, has suffered fatal gunshot wounds. Three bullets struck the device, destroying the lens and rendering it inop. Clifford E. Clark III, 47, [...]

McCain’s Favorability Rises
Wed, 19 Mar 2008 00:58:57 +0000
I was right, it is a right-wing conspiracy! McCain has his highest favorable rating in eight years.
(Of course, we all what happened eight years ago: Karl Rove got a hold of McCain. But now, Rove is pulling the strings for McCain, and you see what happens?!)
