How long before we hear the rallying cry that, “you can have my shoes when you pry them from my cold dead feet?” I ask because apparently feet, not to mention hands, are more lethal than guns. This from the Daily Caller, which relates results from the FBI’s 2007-2011 “Murder Victims by Weapon” report: The […]
I’ve taken a lot of heat over the past several weeks for not having voted in the most recent election. Especially since most of the people I know believe that had I voted it would have been for Romney. However, even those who know I would have voted for Paul as write-in are up-in-arms that […]
From the Department of How Convenient, we learn that state Supreme Court Justice Patricia Timmons-Goodson, a liberal who was originally backed by former governor and Democrat corruption king crony Mike Easley, is retiring from the bench before Gov. Bev Perdue slithers out of office in January. Under an executive order that Perdue decreed last year, […]
Swayed by a strong dose of, um, holiday spirits, I lost control of my mental faculties last week and was compelled to check in on the pre-Black Friday sale fight club at the Target in Blakeney. Never got into the store, and barely made it into the parking lot, which was swamped with barricades, cop cars, […]
Via the SGT Report: Another ‘Black Friday’ has come and gone. And it has left us with further evidence of the complete madness of the populace of our nation. America has been dealt a fatal blow by corporate greed, Bankster malfeasance and the insidious nature of collectivism – and it’s all been done to us […]
It amused me today when Brad and Britt, the latest drive time hosts on Charlotte’s 1110AM WBT, started talking about how they don’t buy lottery tickets until the jackpot reaches X amount. Why is that amusing? Because on yesterday’s show they were saying no investor would ever withhold their capital from investment if capital gains taxes […]
Over the holiday weekend there were a few developments in the much-feared (yet completely-avoidable) approaching fiscal cliff that caught my attention. First, some Republican lawmakers began agreeing to tax increases despite earlier promises not to do so. I know! I’m just as shocked as you that a politician would break a promise! Republican Senators Bob Corker (TN), Saxby Chambliss (GA), and Lindsey Graham […]
Alternate Headline: “Housing Whores,” which actually might be both more appropriate and accurate. After years of recklessly backstopping toxic loans with little to no regard for fiscal implications, losses are swamping revenues over at the Federal Housing Administration. A new study released last week shows the FHA some $16 billion under water. So naturally, bailout. This […]
An Illinois animal rights group calling themselves SHARK has embarked on an all-out crusade against Wing Pointe, an exclusive Pennsylvania hunt club that hosts legal pigeon shoots on their own property. Most recently, SHARK upped the ante by launching an aerial drone, hoping to hover the thing over the shooters while capturing live video of the shoot. Not surprisingly, however, […]
No worries with Capt. Timmy at the helm. This from CNSNews: Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner said Friday that Congress should stop placing legal limits on the amount of money the government can borrow and effectively lift the debt limit to infinity. On Bloomberg TV, “Political Capital” host Al Hunt asked Geithner if he believes “we […]
