Apr. 30th, 2012 @ 02:16 pm You're Not Being Silenced.... You're Just Being Ignored
The Green activists are running attack ads in my home state now. Apparently someone had the temerity to oppose their push for yet stricter "air quality" laws on the grounds that reducing "pollutants" from 2 parts per bazillion to 1 part per bazillion would destroy jobs and produce no measurable positive effect. (How audacious of us, right?)

So they've started running radio ads accusing those who oppose them of wanting to suffocate small children for filthy lucre, with an asthmatic child desperately wheezing away in the background....

Quick show of hands: how many others here change the channel or just turn off the radio?

"Better ten guilty men go free than one innocent man go to jail." Allow me to note that those options aren't exactly mutually exclusive. In fact, I've observed that a society that won't punish the guilty also tends to happily punish the innocent...in direct proportion.

When all men are demonized, do not be surprised when all men act like devils.

Yup. still got a plan. It involves running in circles, screaming, and flailing like someone set my hair on fire and my butt was starting to catch...

When I hear people praising Obama for giving the order to "get" bin Laden, a Chris Rock line comes to mind: "Whaddaya want, a cookie?? (They) Always wanting to get PRAISED for what they were SUPPOSED to do in the FIRST place."


According to the Wall Street Journal's beancounters, if you taxed every household in America that makes over $100,000 a year at a rate of 100 percent, you still wouldn't raise enough to balance president Obama's budget, never mind pay off any debt. You can't eliminate poverty by legalized plunder.


Books may not be extinct, but they HAVE become a fringe product... displaced by downloads, ebooks, kindles, books on CD and DVD. Much as candlemakers were once in the business of lighting houses--- but now are in the business of candlemaking. I wonder if they'll start making paper books potpourri scented?

People in the "save the printed word" movement get my attention in about the same way that the "save the buggy whip industry" people do. Less, actually, as they're bemoaning the fate of an industry that wouldn't even let me in the front door....

The next time someone talks to you about "overwhelming scientific consensus," hand 'em a toy brontosaur.

Liberalism is a unique religion. Rather than send its sinners to hell, it contrives to bring hell to you. Just look at Detroit.

Taking sick people to the Government for health care is like taking a sick dog to Midas Mufflers for veterinary care.
