For something a little different, I thought I’d share a bit of what I do for a living. Several people on the RNL have asked in the past, and though I have tried to explain it, it is difficult to understand. What I do is one of those things that is easier to understand when…

…and the poor return that assistance with grace and gratitude envy and hate: As volunteers with the makeshift relief efforts have applied their own rules on how to dole out relief — telling people where to wait and enforcing limits on how many blankets or food items storm victims receive — some have entered the…
Sound familiar? America has an unfortunate history with secession, which led to the bloodiest war in our history and divisions that persist to this day. But, in general, the causes of secession are pretty standard around the world: Too much power in the central government, too much resentment in the unhappy provinces. (Think Hunger Games). So…

I’ll put this as mildly and inoffensively as possible. Paul Krugman is an absolute and unequivocally monumental moron. He is without compare. I hope that wasn’t too subtle to show my true feelings on the subject. Krugs today calls for the return of double corporate taxation and a top individual rate of 91%: Consider the question of…
The Democrats made this bed. Scaring seniors about any changes to Medicare or social security. Now they have to lay in it. Should be interesting to watch them sell cuts to seniors now.
