Ideas on how to change the way our country runs.

Mr. Obama, we have noticed.

An Open Letter to President Obama on the Occasion of 9/11 Faye Parrish Dear President Obama, I read of your administrations plan to re-define September 11th as a National Service Day. Sir, it’s time we had a talk. During your campaign, Americans watched as you made mockery of our tradition of standing and crossing your [...]

New Research Suggests That Governments May Fake SSL Certificates

You’ve got to read this: The government will lie and cheat you worse than any corporation because they are above their own law.

From an old Jarhead…

Reprinted without permission: I’ll be 63 soon. Except for one semester in college when jobs were scarce, and a six-month period when I was between jobs, but job-hunting every day, I’ve worked, hard, since I was 18. Despite some health challenges, I still put in 50-hour weeks, and haven’t called in sick in seven or [...]

545 People

Politicians, as I have often said, are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against them. Everything on the Republican contract is a problem created by Congress. Too much bureaucracy? Blame Congress. Too many rules? Blame Congress. Unjust tax laws? Congress wrote them. Out-of-control bureaucracy? Congress authorizes everything bureaucracies do. [...]

The Axis of Idiots

This is just stellar. I like this guy. You gotta read this letter. Jimmy Carter, you are the father of the Islamic Nazi movement. You threw the Shah under the bus, welcomed the Ayatollah home, and then lacked the spine to confront the terrorists when they took our embassy and our people hostage. You’re the [...]

Cigarettes are food too

The U.S. Senate a while ago backed a plan giving the Food and Drug Administration power to regulate cigarettes and other tobacco products, because you know, they’ve been doing such a fantastic with everything else they “regulate” (peanuts, as a recent example). The agency would monitor and approve advertising, implement harsher package warnings and conduct [...]

Will Nancy Pelosi please go away

So, Nancy Polosi, the most useless person in the entire United States government, is still pursuing her desperate mission to blame her incompetence on the “policy” of the CIA to lie to Congress. Nancy, anybody in their right mind knows that the CIA would not make it a policy to lie to Congress. They would [...]

Gay-dar

Some screeching idiots in Congress want to eliminate the military’s “Don’t ask, Don’t tell” policy about sexual orientation. I have three things to say about this: 1. I do not think that it is appropriate for Congress to change that policy based on political activism. If the military advises that the policy needs to be [...]

What Socialists really Want

Anyone with a critical mind can plainly see the very idea of socialism doesn’t work. It has been proven time and again that a non-merit based system of rewards leads to a decrease in merit. The attraction socialism has to mouth breathers that hate working is obvious, but there are folks that actually work and [...]

Prison + Terrorist = OMFG

Read this article first. After you’ve read that article you should be wondering what the big deal about closing Guantanamo Bay is. I mean, seriously, we already have these evil bastards in our domestic prisons! I have a suggestion, people. Let’s not try foreigners as if they are citizens of the US. They are not. [...]
