Here’s a headline from today’s New York Times:
Bernanke Signals Fed is Ready to Prop Up Economy
I love that!  I wanted to add a few more:

Mafia Boss Ready to Administer Humanitarian Aid
Enron Executives Named Heads of SEC
Mark McGuire to Investigate Steroid Use in Baseball
Bill Gates Book Details Struggles of Living in Poverty

Anyone else find ALL these [...]

What is up with the news??!!

Okay, so I heard that there’s this massive famine in Niger in Africa…that thousands are starving.  It’s one of the worst famines in recent history.  The story was on the radio on NPR.  But I go to CNN and there’s a top story of “Teen’s Peace Mission to North Korea” at the very top with [...]

Consider this…

Point 1:
If the healthcare bill passes, it’s likely that more people in the USA will work for the federal government than any other employer in the country.  If that happens, how likely do you think getting representatives elected that want to ACTUALLY reduce the size of government is going to be?  “Let’s see…vote for someone [...]

H1N1 Causes Rampant…Profits?

Man, do I feel better.  I was all prepared for the world to end because, you know, this H1N1 flu thing was going to kill us all.  I mean, the government and the health care industry told me that if I didn’t vaccinate myself and my family with this new additional vaccine that we’d all [...]

Someone Explain to me How Taking Away the Rights of Law Abiding Citizens Accomplishes Anything

In a world of uncertainty, there is at least one thing that you can count on…there is a segment of the US population that is convinced that limiting the rights of law abiding citizens to keep and carry guns somehow will better society.  These folks are out there spreading misinformation on this topic again, right [...]

Let’s keep this simple: the government doesn’t do things well. Why would we want them running our healthcare?

This will be a short post.  I just want anyone reading this to think about this -
The post office -losing money.
Amtrak - losing money.
Medicare - losing money.
Social security - broke.
OUR ENTIRE GOVERNMENT - BROKE.
Why don’t people see?  Government can not run anything efficiently because it has no incentive to. It is the one organization that [...]

The Tear-Down of Michael Phelps

Tagged as: Rant

First off, just in case you haven’t read it already, Michael Phelps likes to hit the bong every once in a while. In a story a couple of weeks ago in an English tabloid, a picture of Phelps appeared in which he appeared to be taking a bong hit. Since then, Michael has [...]

The most ridiculous idea of all time

Tagged as: Political, Rant

Here it is! I have found the most ridiculous news story EVER. Look at the headline with the mouse pointer beside it.

This was from my Yahoo News feed. Yes, the Fed is going to help us out of our economic woes. The very people that have caused this problem are going [...]

Lendale, Lendale, Lendale…

So Lendale White popped off to the media over the weekend about not getting enough carries in the loss to the Jets. To Lendale I say, “Quit whining and do something about it on the field!” It amazes me how childish these NFL players can be sometimes. Whether it’s Vince Young basically [...]

Middle Tennessee Electric hates trees

Well, I got visited by Middle Tennessee Electric’s tree butchers today. In the middle of summer, following a month of no rain, when I wasn’t home at all, they took half of the foliage off a 30 foot tall oak tree in my yard. This tree is one of about half-a-dozen large oaks [...]
