Better Half and I were talking about this last night, and I figured I should go ahead and put up another post reminding everyone about it – there are multiple authors at this weblog: me (Linoge), WizardPC, and Shane. We have not really heard from the latter in …
So I am watching a conference committee on State Sovereignty where they were talking about corresponding with other states about making the Federal Government behave. Bobby Patray of the Tennessee Eagle Forum was recognized, and explained why Constitutional Conventions are a bad idea. Basically, it goes like this: The last …
And to double your dose of gun porn today… about a month back, I teased you with a close-up picture of… something. Dirtcrashr had a very close guess, but he missed on part of it. Today, you get the rest of the picture… of something else: Strictly speaking, that …
Too often and for too long, certain individuals of certain political tendencies have been holding up once-Great Britain’s health care system as the example we should be emulating.
