Our daily link for Tuesday are… YES! It passed the committee! Oh, what? This will lead to the end of our country as we know it? You know, I did take Logic in college and this reaks of the slippery slope fallacy… Oh, who am I kidding, we’re digging a hole we can’t get out of And [...]

And the daily links are… Freedom of speech, except when you’re talking about climate change, then what Al says, goes. Of course, it is really hard when the world you’re trying to protect just doesnt do what you want it to I have an idea, maybe if we fight a war and don’t equip our [...]
Pro-Choice or Pro-Life
I find myself thinking about my position on the abortion debate after reading this article. For a long time I associated myself with the pro-life side of the abortion debate. I felt that, as unsure as we are about when exactly a person should be deemed alive, we should, if anything, err on [...]
Nobel Peace Prize Awarded to Barack Obama

Daily Links, Friday 10/09/09
Our daily links for Friday are very special indeed… President Obama receives the Nobel Peace Prize! Of course, the question on everyone’s mind is why? Well apparently the prize can be awarded in the *hope* that something comes of someone’s actions, they don’t actually have to accomplish anything The Iranians will attack Israel if attacked [...]
A Nuclear Iran
I never thought I would say this, but the Obama Adminstration is doing something right. This article from Foreign Policy magazine outlines what President Obama has done since Iran’s announcement of nuclear capability and what he should do. The way global politics are set up right now, I can’t say I disagree. Post It:
Another non-Stimulus Bill
We have already spent $787,000,000,000 on a stimulus bill this year. That is, unless you take The Heritage Foundation’s approach. They have calculated the total cost of the stimulus bill at $3,270,000,000,000. How do they calculate this? Well, actually, they didn’t. Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) requestioned a study on the impact of the $787 [...]
Daily Links, Thursday 10/08/09
Our daily links for Thursday are… At least the Asians still support the dollar. Nothing like the fear of China’s exports power to instill loyalty And the Republicans follow in Sarah Palin’s footsteps. Is that ever a good idea? It’s really sad that not only haven’t we gotten out, we’re trying to bring more in. It’s [...]
Daily Links, Wednesday 10/07/09
And today in the news, we have: A possible troop build-up in Afghanistan. Let’s continue with the imperialist movement of Bush, President Obama, even when the Taliban claims they are no threat. Is it worth believing maybe, maybe not, but after 8 years and 800 deaths, in my book it’s worth a shot And guess [...]
Quote for Thought I
‘Our government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or ill, it teaches the whole people by its example.’ -Timothy McVeigh quoting Justice Brandeis immediately prior to being sentenced to death. How can such a terrible man make such a profound statement and what are the implications? I can in no way condone the [...]
Daily Links Update: Downfall of the Dollar Pt. 3
It seems that now the United Nations is seeking a new global reserve currency. I feel like we did not attain our economic status by allowing other countries to dictate our monetary policy, even if our society is peaking (which I do not believe or hope it is). More to follow on this. Thanks to [...]
Guilty Before Proven Innocent
As with anyone else that has half a heart, I am no champion of the pedophile. They corrupt and ruin the lives of children. I would go so far as to say I hate them. When I used to watch Law & Order: SVU I’d get a rush watching Stabler beat up the latest pervert [...]
Daily Links, Tuesday 10/06/09
Today, we have a supreme court case, world rankings of the best countries to live in, a four-star general speaking out, a denial and the wacky, wonderful world of police informants. Enjoy! An interesting Supreme Court case about questioning a suspect. The headline for me is how for once we hear about something our highest court can discuss as [...]
Daily Link Follow-up: Health Care
Earlier today in the daily links I posted about the supporters of and opposition to a universal health care bill. Obviously I am no fan of a bill that will increase taxes and decrease the rights and freedoms of hard-working American citizens. Well, with that said, it seems that neither are three past presidents of the [...]

Daily Links, Monday 10/05/09
We’re in for a treat today with health care, Aghanistan, New York’s fascist turn, the economic crisis and tsunamis. And hear are your daily links… I guess they’re just as confused as we are, yes or no to universal health care? So far, no change in the Middle East from Bush to Obama “We can’t just say [...]
Why Libertarian? Part I: Introduction
Why should I become a Libertarian? Many people wonder why they should become a Libertarian as opposed to a Republican or Democrat, especially in a two-party system such as the one the US currently operates under. Well, there are a number of reasons. To start with, you don’t become a Libertarian, you are or [...]

Here are the links for Sunday, 10/04/09. The War on Terror, Michael Moore, climate change, health care, free press, and our first failed state. 10 US Soldiers killed in Afghanistan. We should probably get out now. I think we’ve made our point. Moore’s Capitalism. And now everyone begins to realize what an idiot we are [...]
