SCOTUS Pounds Foundation Of Obamacare

Updates Below News from today’s hearings on Obamacare at the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) indicate Obamacare took a pounding.  CNN’s Jeffrey Toobin was especially shaken: According to CNN’s legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin, the arguments were “a train wreck for the Obama administration.” “This law looks like it’s going to be struck down.

As Details Come Out, George Zimmerman’s Claims Crumble

Update: As the  Zimmerman’s camp calls for patience, one wonders where Zimmerman’s patience was on the night he cornered (and probably threatened if not enraged) Trayvon? Update: Read this as well, because it lays out the reasoning that shows Trayvon was the victim, Zimmerman the obsessed vigilante. It means Zimmerman is the likely culprit: If [...]

New Wrinkle In Trayvon Martin Killing While Leftwing Nuts Go Crazy

  As I noted yesterday, the tragedy surrounding the death of young Trayvon Martin is about to be eclipsed by left wing political vultures looking for any reason to get in the news. The worst offenders now being the New Black Panther Party, coming out with their tired old racism: And in Sanford, Florida, a [...]

Attempts To Make Trayvon Martin’s Murder A Race Issue Will Destroy Obama’s 2012 Election Chances

Update: The news of an eye witness does not change my assessment below. But one man’s testimony could be key for the police. “The guy on the bottom who had a red sweater on was yelling to me: ‘help, help…and I told him to stop and I was calling 911,” he said. Trayvon Martin was [...]

Romney Campaign Admits To Being All Snake Oil

Published by under All General Discussions

Flim-flam artists are gifted in telling people what they want to hear in order to gain their trust – and then steal that trust. Usually it is in the form of money, but in politics it is in the form of votes. Team Romney has come out of the closet and admitted they are the [...]

Proof Man-Made Global Warming Is Really Man-Made

One thing that really gets under the skin of professionals in my line of business is eff’d up data, especially when the eff’ing up looks to be a deliberate act to deceive. At NASA there are heart wrenching examples of when computations are wrong: For those not aware, that is the Space Shuttle Challenger and [...]

The Demise Of Progressive Socialism

I think one of the deep nagging problems with this election cycle is how we are experiencing the demise of big-government intervention as we collectively realize there are no easy (or cheap) answers to be found in the mythical magic of government as our savior. Government has a role to play, but as been shown [...]

Santorum Wins Deep South Tuesday – Romney Comes In 3rd

Tonight’s results are very, very interesting. Rick Santorum took both Alabama and Mississippi tonight. But worse for Mitt Romney (the anointed one) is the fact he came in 3rd in both races. Gingrich stole second place meaning “Anybody but Romney” took another round of races. This means Gingrich and Santorum will stay in the race [...]

Published by under All General Discussions

Dear Readers, I am so sorry I have not been able to post very much over the last few weeks. We had a slew of personal medical issues, a death in the extended family and a landslide at work. I have barely been able to breathe. I had planned to post on the Feb unemployment [...]

Post Super Tuesday Malaise

Published by under All General Discussions

This has to be the most bizarre electoral cycle I have ever experienced. I recall highs and lows, cliff hangers and close losses. But this one feels simply empty. And I am sure most Americans feel the same way. We need to shrink government a lot, with as little pain as possible towards those whose [...]

Will Virginia Upset GOP Race Using Ron Paul?

Virginia is participating in the GOP Super Tuesday voting today. And as a long term native of this great commonwealth, I hear rumblings of a mini protest vote in the works. The VA GOP screwed up again and somehow we only have Romney and Paul on the ballot. But that provides some interesting options to [...]

Obligatory Rush/Fluke Post

Rush Limbaugh has taken the circular firing squad to new levels: he went into straight implode mode, and took the GOP with him. Let’s be clear here: Rush Limbaugh was wrong, arrogant and cruel. He deserves the financial reminder that his success is not a license to hurt others. I have no sympathy for the [...]

Why Global Warming Alarmists Must Cheat, Steal & Lie

The recent incident where a top global warming alarmists admitted to identity theft and wire fraud (and soon will most likely be found guilty of creating a fraudulent documents) is the latest in a chain of false information and outright lies promulgated by the debunked Catastrophic Anthropogenic Global Warming (C-AGW) community (e.g., the United Nations [...]
