Sickening

Sen. Rand Paul reminds us that the debt compromise only cuts from the “baseline;” that is, it only cuts from projected increases so we’ll still be adding $7 trillion to the debt over the next 10 years. As he says, this is sickening. To paraphrase Jim DeMint: When you’re speeding toward the edge of a [...]

Wikiot

Back on April Fools’ Day, the Urban Dictionary Word of the Day was wikiot, a portmanteau of wiki and idiot. It is defined as “a fool who believes all information found on Wikipedia is accurate and true,” and it’s usage example is: Michael Scott, from NBC’s The Office, upon claiming “Wikipedia is the best thing [...]

Give Them an Inch, and They’ll Take a Mile

In Mitt Romney’s speech announcing his candidacy, he said, “we are only inches away from ceasing to be a free market economy.” First things first. I don’t exactly think Mitt Romney has any free market bona fides considering the state-wide takeover of healthcare he led in Massachusetts, which served as a beta release of Obamacare. [...]

If I could afford to buy the men and women of our military and intelligence communities a round of drinks for their unwavering dedication resulting in last night’s news, I would. Hopefully this simple message will suffice; congratulations and thank you for introducing Osama Bin Laden to the long arm of American justice.

March Madness

Can you afford to spend 8 times more than your monthly revenue? I didn’t think so. But our government did just that in the month of March, and it’s poised to continue down the same reckless path. If you’re spending 90% of your monthly revenue, you should probably take that as a warning sign that [...]

Living in a Bubble

Governor Scott Walker exposes the problems with unionized labor with this simple example: In 2010, Megan Sampson was named an Outstanding First Year Teacher in Wisconsin. A week later, she got a layoff notice from the Milwaukee Public Schools. Why would one of the best new teachers in the state be one of the first [...]

It’s Math

“A country that doesn’t ever balance its budget will go bankrupt. That’s not a threat. It’s math.” This nugget of wisdom, which is obvious to any 3rd grader with at least a C average in arithmetic yet has been Greek to those in Washington for the last few generations, comes courtesy of Senator Jim DeMint [...]
