More Proof: Americans Can't Do Math

Reading along in the NYTimes today about these closures in Arizona – a state where no people should live anyway. It would seems people are up in arms that their rest stops are closed due to budget cuts.

Two things came to mind

Pee in the woods/side of the road/sand dunes/cactus patches
If you want the spending priorities [...]

World’s Smallest Political Quiz

In talking with people about what is mean to be a true American conservative leaning into Libertarianism, I frequently challenge people to think about where they stand on the spectrum. I learned where I stool by taking this quiz many many many years ago: World’s Smallest Political Quiz.

Memorial Day

When your armed forces are seen more as an illegitimate arm of a neo-fascists regime it is hard to celebrate.

But we Americans find a way. To quote my local Israeli, “You celebrate your war heros by running huge sales on cars and crap you don’t need, then go on vacation, BBQ something and sit in the car for 6 hours?”

Yup, we are The Americans.

One can only [...]

One More Time: I Told You So!

This from CNN.com:

Seventy percent of people questioned in a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey say things are going badly in the United States. The last time the public gave the country’s condition such a bad rating was January 1992 in the last year in office of the last president named Bush.  

Really? Huh. I would have never thought [...]

Iran, Iraq, Global Warming, Technology Gap, Drugs for Kids, Suburban Despair, Lawlessness of USA, Katrina, White House as THE SEAT OF ALL EVIL, WHO WILL WE VOTE FOR? WHAT KIND OF NATION WILL BE?

One More Time: Being Right Is SOOOO Nice!

As you might be reading about our President’s recent speech in which he continues to show his detachment from reality.

From the Wash Post:

Historian Robert Dallek, who has written about the comparisons of Iraq to Vietnam, accused Bush of twisting history. ‘It just boggles my mind, the distortions I feel are perpetrated here by the president,’ [...]

Why We Are Doomed

Today is a bad day for Jews. Traditionally we are all sad because we lost our Temple. In general, the more, well, modern amongst us, see this as a time to be insightful and think about the big plan as manifested through events then, now and in the middle – we are talking about 2000+ [...]

Can We Try To Get This Right?

Short and direct:

Fossil fuels are bad for us, bad for the fish, bad for the GWOT.

We need to reduce our dependency on them.

We also have a labor/farm/immigration issue here in the US of A.

How are these related?

Well, as we need more grains and crops to make alternative fuels, we increase demand. When demand goes up [...]

We Were Right, er Left!

HAHAHAHA – Do a little dance, we were right:

After offering a bleak assessment of the Bush administration’s strategy in Iraq, Senator Richard G. Lugar of Indiana, the ranking Republican on the Foreign Relations Committee, said today that he was urging lawmakers and President Bush to change course quickly to protect a further erosion of America’s [...]

Fall Guy

Listening to the verdict made me laugh, G-d Bless America, please we need every blessing we can get.

Libby obstructed justice, committed perjury and made false statements when he told FBI agents and the grand jury investigating the leak that he had possessed no official knowledge

I appears that Libby is the fall guy for the corrupt [...]
