Bad Places

Gee, rulings like this one in New York can’t be used badly. No way. There’s a very simple answer to the problem of potential or likely repeat offenders, and allowing bureaucrats to decide who gets to enjoy the hospitality of the state prison system for longer than their sentence, up to and including “fucking forever”, […]

Why Aren’t They Already Required?

I’m not exactly sure why cops, those fine representatives of the state most likely to violate one’s civil rights, aren’t already required to take a course on basic Constitutional law. From a federal judge’s decision in a ruling where a man was denied a concealed Carry permit on first amendment grounds: In denying Paul a […]

“It’s Not Like Any Other Drug”

Indiana, moving in reverse: Over-the-counter cold medicines with an ingredient used to make Meth may soon only be available by prescription in Indiana. “When you do it you understand how addictive it is, I mean it is not like any other drug,” explained a meth user. You’re right. No other drug has caused legislators to go […]

A Typical Federal Winner

We were told by Obama that if only we had more job training, people could get back to work.  Peter S. Goodman via The New York Times: It was February 2009, and the city work force center in Downtown Brooklyn was jammed with hundreds of people hungry for paychecks. His caseworker urged [Israel Valle] to […]

That Sounds About Right

Vermont has successfully shat upon what few good assets in education it has in order to pander for a few federal dollars.  Great job!  Michael Winerip of The New York Times: Ms. Irvine wasn’t removed by anyone who had seen her work (often 80-hour weeks) at a school where 37 of 39 fifth graders were […]

If the best support you have for your party is that the other party is full of poo poo heads, you’re in trouble.  If that’s the best Obama can drum up, it’s going to be an ugly November for Demotards.

Against Ourselves

Isn’t it great that the very weapons which we gave to those in South America in order to fight communism during the Cold War are now being used against us by violent drug cartels?  Will we ever learn that when we give weapons away to foriegners in order to fight some ideological cause, such as […]

Twice a Day

Though most of the stuff that Salon.com puts out on a daily basis is progressive porn, even a broken clock is right twice a day.  When Salon, bastion of state worship, calls out, correctly, the government pandering bullshit pulled by the Times, you just have to know that it is little more than a rag.

Obama the Arrogant

And I thought that it was libertarianism which was supposed to be egotistical. Apparently, Obama is the All Seeing Eye who will make it all better for us lowly plebs.  Sheryl Gay Stolberg of The New York Times, quoting Obama, as she tries mightily to help the administration fool the American people in to thinking […]

Bu, bu, bu, but, I thought the stimulus was stimulating. That’s what you told a bunch of Michigan voters today.
