John Galt–His Name Is My Name Too
Remember back during the Presidential campaign when all of Barack Obama’s supporters fake changed their middle name to “Hussein” to show their support for him? Â It’s time for a counter. Starting today, I’m encouraging like-minded people to change their last names on their Facebook, Twitter, etc. accounts to “Galt” in our support of John Galt. [...]
Big Election Day Turnout? Eh-It Depends
I early voted, but I went out for lunch to day and cruised by a couple of polling locations while I was out. Â Here’s what I saw: Â At A.L. Lotts, there was plenty of parking and no apparent line at 11:59 am. Â It didn’t look like much was going on there outside of a [...]
Election Day–Blah!
Here are some thoughts/predictions/what-have-yous. Obama will win in a landslide, or this will be tied up in court for a few weeks. If Obama wins, there will be celebratory riots, just like when a sports team wins a championship. If Obama loses, there will be riots, just like when people get pissed about other stuff. [...]
Tension
“Republicans. Â That’s what scares people nowadays. Â That and…Democrats.” -Todd Snider No more political posts from me until next Wednesday. Next Wednesday we can start talking about what we can do to try and fix things the next time around. For now, there’s too much tension, I’m over it. Enjoy this song. If you don’t already [...]
Obama Assassination Planners Tennesseans?
The News Sentinel is reporting that a plot to Assassinate Barack Obama and murder over 100 people at a Tennessee high school has been busted up. There aren’t many details yet, only that it was a “murder spree” that was to happen in Tennessee and was being hatched by a couple of neo-Nazi skinheads. H/T [...]
Common Man
Heard on the radio and copied from Dave Ramsey’s site. I Do Not Choose to Be a Common Man.  It is my right to be uncommon—if I can.  I seek opportunity—not security. I do not wish to be a kept citizen, humbled and dulled by having the state look after me. I want to take the [...]
I Don’t Feel Like Writing
But these people do. Â So go read their posts. LissaKay on how socialism works. Â Notice the guy at the top pays the same amount either way. BillyMac has fun playing with John McCain’s tongue. Â Strange fetish. Why Libertarians and true conservatives don’t win elections. Â Duh. Seth Godin writes a post about me–too small to fail. [...]
Agin’ Obama
Here’s a comprehensive argument against Barack Obama. Â You don’t have to agree with it, but it’s well written and pretty thorough. Â I’ll gladly post one about McCain if someone points to one. Â Why wouldn’t I? Â I’ve already posted one about myself. ht Shots Across the Bow
Feelin’ Good Again
It’s good when you go on vacation to get away and not think about stupid stuff for a few days. Â Of course, if you’re like me, you spend those vacation days thinking about stupid stuff anyway, but it’s different stupid stuff than you think about when you aren’t on vacation. Â This vacation was especially good [...]
We Interrupt This Race For Some Negativity
There’s no way I’d ever run for public office. Â Ok, maybe I would just out of spite, but I’d never do it with any illusions about my electibility. Â I seems political success is somehow tied to likability, which disqualifies me. Â But just in case I do run, here’s a little head start for my opponents [...]
