Why Stop at Banning Guns? Let’s Ban Plastic Shapes.

This post is re-published with the permission of it’s author, Craig Holland Dixon of MachineSmash.com.   Surprise! Perhaps it was naive of us, as citizens of a supposedly-free country, to presume that we could so openly flaunt our ability to produce something (save for a filled-out tax form) without Uncle Sam’s permission.

The “minor” Changes To Benghazi Talking Points Not So Minor

Oh my. This report from ABC News is pretty damaging. State Department spokesman Victoria Nuland raised specific objections to this paragraph drafted by the CIA in its earlier versions of the talking points: “The Agency has produced numerous pieces on the threat of extremists linked to al-Qa’ida in Benghazi and eastern Libya.  These noted that, […]

Becoming Former County Manager Harry Jones

That Harry Jones was unceremoniously fired this week should surprise no one, least of all Mr. Jones himself.
