Mathematical meditation

I want you to think about something for a moment:  one trillion.  A million million.  Ten to the twelfth power.  A one with twelve zeroes behind it. It’s an incredibly large number, is it not?  Most people know the word trillion, and they know, at least on an intellectual level, what that number is.  However, [...]

When failure is rewarded

Is anyone else as tired of the media’s orgasmic coverage of His Holiness’ 100 days of failure?

All this time, I thought I was a libertarian

The “economic stimulus” package in perspective

Sobering, isn’t it?

And people wonder…

…why I always refer to Obama as “His Holiness”  Here’s your answer: h/t: Hot Air
