The Real Enemy
My friend Eric alerted me to a boycott of CPAC by Conservative Groups over the inclusion of a gay group at the CPAC convention. Don’t they know that the real enemy is the Andromeda Galaxy? They are sending viruses to destroy us. I saw it in a movieonce. We need to unite behind the real…

Bloody Mary
I love the way Alec Baldwin flubs his lines. The male chorus though is just outstanding. Carnagie Hall 2005. The movie is good too. South Pacific (Collector’s Edition) And to get you in the proper mood may I suggest this history. Guadalcanal: The Definitive Account of the Landmark Battle and Tales of the South Pacific

In need of meds
Forgive my lack of enthusiasm the past couple of days. I am running a terrible cold which started last week and instead of resolving, has only gotten steadily worse each day. By yesterday it was much too late to abort the cold, but I did remember the trusty old Yin Chiao I’ve had lying about…

Eat Your Vegetables
Not Safe For Work And a little Frank Zappa to go with your vegetables. Not Safe For Work And what was the point of all this? The girls eating vergtables and saying bad things about men are part of a PETA Super Bowl Commercial. Cross Posted at Power and Control

1979 all over again?
That’s what Michael Ledeen is saying is true in a number of ways. One is that as was the case with the Shah, Mubarak is being sent mixed messages: …Mubarak has to know exactly what we want. Do we know what we want? My impression is that we are confused, just as in 1979. Obama’s…

Hate Is The Object
In my post Hating The Andromeda Galaxy I looked at the necessity of hate in politics. I discuss some of the repercussions of that in Strange Connection. Today I came across a site discussing those very issues from a biological perspective. The Market for Sanctimony. Two unspoken questions that religions and quasi-religions, in practice, have…

A river WHERE?
I’m back from the Michigan Republican Party State Convention in Grand Rapids, which was nowhere near as raucous as the one in Lansing in August. The strength of the Tea Party is undeniable — so much so that the candidates were clearly competing for Tea Party support. I wish I had been quicker with my…

The Muslim Brotherhood Liked Me
With the Muslim Brotherhood so much in the news because of Egyptian happenings and Instapundit’s reprise of a 2005 Michael Totten piece I thought I would repeat a blog conversation we had in 2007. ===== I got a link from The Muslim Brotherhood. I asked Michael Totten if this was a good or a bad…

Stripper Shortage In Texas
The end is nigh. Would that be front or rear? TMZ.com reported that some strip clubs surrounding Cowboys stadium are looking for an additional 10,000 girls to entertain the overwhelming crowds expected during the Packers-Steelers matchup. According to the website, Arlington city officials are expecting 300,000 visitors over Super Bowl weekend. John Walsh, the manager…

Adrift!
I’m going to be away in Grand Rapids, Michigan for the next couple of days, so my blogging will be light to nonexistent. And alas! Snow is forecast for today and tomorrow across the entire state! (That’s because of that Global Warming Killer Freezing thing, of course…. Freeze till you boil!) Fortunately, there has been…

Getting Ready For The Revolution
Or War, or Anarchy, or Natural Disaster. Instapundit is looking at the question and the idea (necessity really) of amateur radio comes up. Now two way communication is excellent. But just being able to listen is good too. I like this radio: It covers from 150 KHz to 29.999 MHz in 1 KHz steps (with…

Hating The Andromeda Galaxy
I’m discussing (well a monologue so far) the nature of politics at Libertarians Are Not Anarchists!. Commenter Peter Jackson thinks he has figured it out. There are three types of politics: the politics of social justice, the politics of public order/social virtue, and the politics of individual freedom. But he misses something deeper. There is…

Cuts and Bleeding
With a $1.5T deficit in the news and the GOP sweeping into power promising spending cuts, I’m seeing a return of the left’s hallowed 1990s standby: how dare we think of “balancing the budget on the back of the poor.” It would be nice if we could give everyone all the things they want or deserve…

WTF?
That would be: Winning The Future Note that at four minutes into the video she has some very good words to say about libertarians. Palin/Johnson 2012! And do you know what comes after WTF? Stagflation and WIN buttons. Whip Inflation Now. Cross Posted at Power and Control

Expensive Habit
Eric just did a post which lightly touched on a subject near and dear to my heart. So I’m crossposting this to add my 2¢. ==== I was discussing the Drug War with a Conservative friend. And the friend was all for it. So I had some thoughts. Ah. I get it. You do not…

Why the have-nots covet the haves
Dr. Helen reviews a book which explores a vexing social problem of long fascination to me, and what I appreciate the most is the author’s contribution of a new word to describe the phenomenon: “UNDERDOGMA.” I am reading a new book by Michael Prell called Underdogma: How America’s Enemies Use Our Love for the Underdog…
