Truth And Common Sense

I’m going to defend and criticize the FBI at the same time.  You have to be able to separate the agents from the bureau.  The agents, by and large are good law enforcement officers.  Their bosses, maybe yes and then maybe no.  It depends on who they are and how they got there.  The trouble [...]

Why am I not surprised.  A teacher, a school nurse and a vaccine for a flu that isn’t that dangerous leads to a child being hospitalized.  Here’s the problem- they really do think they have the right to control your child’s life. If the government says the vaccine is safe, then by God, it’s safe [...]

Listen, when the swine flu broke out many people panicked, most because they were being fed bad information.  Now, without getting into the tall weeds over whether or not it was an intentional act by Obama’s crew to gin up support for socialized healthcare, it was apparent somebody was trying their best to justify their [...]

If you want read Powerline’s overview and comments before jumping over to Krauthammer’s article, or just go straight to it.  I warn you, bring a cup of coffee and visit the john before you sit down, Charles tends to be long winded.  Not boring or wandering off target, but he can go on and on.
That [...]

This is sad.  Maybe Rush was right, that Obama would not be the great uniter and post racial as he claimed he would be. The problem is that race being used as a weapon is so ingrained into certain elements of the black culture that it is often the first one picked up and used [...]

As I’m blogging and commenting, I cemented my opinion around the effort for Obama to convert young school children into Obamanites.
Then, as I thought some more about recruitment, it hits me with a Homer Simpson moment. DUH! My daughter is almost fifteen, she will be turning eighteen during 2012. She’ll miss being able to vote [...]

This post is prompted by a back and forth with another commentor on a blog about letting kids listening to a politician speak about his agenda in a closed environment.  Anybody who as spent two seconds on my blog know where I stand.
Here’s the problem in a nutshell.  Regardless of whether or not it is [...]

My wife and I have home-schooled our children for most of their lives.  My daughter is going on fifteen, taking Latin, geometry, English literature (including some use of logic).  My son is going on thirteen, and spends his day with math, English
, spelling and this week we start a course on world history (non PC).  [...]

It seems to me that the best way to show your disagreement with a sitting President giving a speech directly to every child in school in America from grades one to six is to prevent it from happening in the first place.
Put aside for a second the sheer, SHEER gall of the man to think [...]

“They were elected on the promise of delivering prosperity to Argentina, but statistics showing a stunning economic turnaround have come with a catch.
New figures show that since Nestor and Cristina Kirchner came to power in 2003, they have presided over a remarkable sixfold increase in their own wealth.
The couple have racked up a fortune through [...]
