DU Today: Why Do We Need Private Insurers? Off With Their Heads!

Hey, look, DUmmies telling the truth! Lerkfish: THERE IS NO NEED FOR PRIVATE INSURERS TO EXIST if we had socialized medicine they would be irrelevant. That is what they fear, and why they spend billions influencing legislation. Let the fun and games begin! IF OUR NATION HAD ACTED RESPONSIBLY HISTORICALLY NO INSURANCE INDUSTRY WOULD BE […]

Yes, Virginia, There Is A Santa Claus

Every Christmas, after the presents are opened and breakfast is being made, I read this first in the paper (ye olde parental units get the paper, and they live in NJ). It is a Christmas classic that has always touched my soul. While some people outside of the Tri-State area have heard of it, rarely […]

Things To Read This Christmas

For the heathens. For the Texans. For the hopeful/hopeless? A matter of perspective. For the exceptional. For those who love the truth. Fight the liars. For those who love a good fight.

Wishful Thinking

Some on this here ye season of joy and peace and sometimes, delusional thinking. I’ve read this post by Red State’s Dan Perrin a couple times. He is optimistic about Health Care Reform going down. This joyous theory is predicated on one untenable idea: that Democrats actually have principles they believe in besides their own […]

Last Minute Shopping

I went out to get a couple of things this morning. This is Santa’s house at South Coast Plaza (can you see Santa down there, at center, posing for pictures with visitors?): The full photo-essay is over at American Power.

ACLUs War on Christmas on Hold Due to Economy

Peter Hannaford of the American Spectator reports that the ACLU has suddenly found some tight budgeting times with the announcement that one of its long time patrons said he couldn’t donate the tall cash he usually donates because of his own harsh economic realities. Apparently the ACLU sent out a letter that told its followers […]

‘Tis the season to deceive!

We’ve got this rule at our house: no whispering in front of other people. You want to say something privately? Go someplace private. Whispering is rude. That rule is being broken. Over, and over, and over again. And my wife — she who made the rule in the first place — is one of the […]

Union Blocks Red Cross Blood Donation

In their greedy desire to steal even more money from employers one union has even gone so far as to block Red Cross blood donations from getting to a hospital as well as picketing blood drives from private companies. In other words, these union thugs have put money and their quest for power above the […]

New Ad: Lefty Group Calls Obama a Liar

A lefty Political Action Committee called Bold Progressives PAC is fed up with the political lies of … President Obama. They are chiefly upset at his lie that he never campaigned on the public option part of his socialist healthcare plan.

Obamanomics on Display in Venezuela

You don’t need a crystal ball to see our government-run future — just a ticket to Venezuela, where Obama prototype Hugo Chavez is several years ahead of us in replacing the free market with coercive moonbattery. His latest misadventure is a new series of stores: President Hugo Chavez on Tuesday announced a new chain of […]

Obama Sets Interpol Above US Law

Is “treasonous” too harsh a word to apply to the arrogant leftists running Washington? You be the judge — in light of this: Last Thursday, December 17, 2009, The White House released an Executive Order “Amending Executive Order 12425.” It grants INTERPOL (International Criminal Police Organization) a new level of full diplomatic immunity afforded to […]

National Review: What Do We Need Now? More Purges!

The John Birch Society announces it has paid for a booth at: February’s Conservative Political Action Conference, a Pajamas Media columnist has a conniption, National Review‘s Jonah Goldberg accuses CPAC of a “big mistake,” and even NRO contributor: Mark Krikorian: : jumps on the dogpile. Understand this: CPAC has scores of sponsoring organizations, who pay money to rent exhibition […]

Cuz Animals Are People Too, Ya Know?

I’ve always been amazed at liberals when it comes to their absurd penchant for acting as if animals are somehow just like people. This anthropomorphizing of the animal kingdom is fine if you are talking with kids, reading fairy tales, or creating entertainment, but when you are talking like adults about science or generally about […]

Cell Phones May Be Next in Nanny State’s Crosshairs

Our insatiably greedy Nanny State rulers can’t inflict any more damage on the tobacco industry without driving it completely out of business, which would cut into tax revenues, so it’s time to look for new victims. Companies that provide us with cell phones make a lot of money; bureaucrats could seize a fat cut of […]

Ex-Microsoft Moonbat Plots Planetary Peril

The nonexistent global warming crisis is a gateway into an alternate universe of pure imagination that really gets the creative juices flowing. An ex-Microsoft technoweenie is promoting a scheme that puts Doctor Evil at his most diabolical to shame. Nathan Myhrvold thinks that he has found a cheap and reliable way to solve global warming, […]

With Climate Change, Christmas Might Be Cancelled!

If it is a day ending in a Y, it must be a day where the climate alarmists are trying to scare kids. Build-A-Bearville.com goes completely chicken little with an attempt to scare kids with a 3 part video (via Big Government, found via Climate Depot). Here is part 2 The transcript (1:07-2:22): Girl Elf: […]

Don’t Get Pregnant While In Iraq

You know what? I have no patience for a female soldier who gets pregnant while on active-duty. You are a soldier. It is your job. You chose this job. It’s called birth control. It’s called make him glove up even if you’re on birth control. More here.
