  • Spammer sentenced to prison

    Vivian J. Paige

    Number of comments: 1
    Each day, I start off by deleting spam: that delivered to my Blackberry, my desktop mail client, my online mail and my blog. It is perhaps the least productive part of my day. Spammers are creative: despite having spam filters everywhere (except on my BB – don’t like the way [...]

  • Perspective please.

    Sun Versus Wind

    Some Liberals Free Thinkers are all excited over this video.

    While it does seem bad a first that Sarah has supporters that don’t have specific reasons to support her, it does need to be put into perspective. Some were able to come up with specific reasons they like her. She isn’t [...]

  • Who is Jeff McWaters?

    VB Dems

    One of my recent daily mailers from Jeff McWaters touts his endorsement by the man he hopes to replace, Senator Ken Stolle. How ironic!

    Here is McWaters, who in another of his daily mailers, talks about "decreasing the size and scope of government and cutting costs". Yet he touts the [...]

  • Stacking the Deck Against Kids

    Blue Commonwealth

    crossposted from Daily Kos

    The American economy is broken, ruined by the greed and irresponsibility of fabulously wealthy corporate chieftains and their shabby acolytes and enablers in government. While Wall Street is handing out billions in bonuses, American families are struggling with joblessness, home foreclosures and rampant debt. The economic [...]

    By Rebecca Smith, Medical Editor, London Telegraph

  • The Global Warmists May Try To Dismiss This ...

    From On High

    ... but it's not going away.

    The efforts to distort data and crush dissenting points of view in what is now being called Climategate are, to one scientist, acts of treason against science:

  • You Be The Judge

    From On High



    Peggy Noonan on the amateurs who are in charge of our country:
    The Obama bowing pictures are becoming iconic not for those reasons, however, but because they express a growing political perception, and that is that there is something amateurish about this presidency, something [...]

  • The Travesty That Is Climategate

    From On High

    In a nutshell.  In the form of cautionary advice.  From Johna Till Johnson:
    Don't make stuff up. The released document HARRY_READ_ME.txt contains examples in which the coder, supremely frustrated with the poor quality of his data, simply creates some. Even if the underlying science is sound, "created" data' [...]

  • Put Up Or Shut Up

    From On High

    There's only one solution to be secured in the developing Climategate scandal.  Release the data!

    Eric S. Raymond:
    Open-Sourcing the Global Warming Debate

    The email and documents recently netjacked from the Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia raise serious questions about the quality of the [...]

  • How to end the recession? Renewable energy

    The 28th Amendment

                This recession should have been the perfect excuse for our country to work towards mitigating climate change.  Granted, if carbon emissions were couched in purely environmentalist terms, most Americans would wonder why we should care about the polar bears and melting glaciers—have become the iconic face of global warming—when [...]

  • See the Movie: The Blind Side

    Deo Vindice

    Go see this great movie.   Great because it’s about Christian love – giving mercy, not ceremony, moving people to be the body of Christ in this generation.  Real people.   True story.  Makes it really great. Fun movie, personally,  because the story takes place in Memphis, Tennessee.   West Tennessee is home to [...]
