It’s time to play “Spot the Moron”

This, ladies and gentlemen, is Obama’s voting base.  Enjoy.

Economic Darwinism: no taxpayer money for the auto industry

I don’t often agree with Mitt Romney.  In my opinion, he represents much of what is wrong with the modern “conservative” brand.  Regardless of what I may not like about Romney’s politics, there is one issue which Romney does understand quite well: business.
In yesterday’s NYT Op/Ed entitled Let Detroit Go Bankrupt, Romney lays out his [...]

Project Valour-IT

As all of my readers should already know (all four of you), I am a veteran of the U.S. Navy. This year, in helping out my fellow squids who may have been injured in the performance of their duties, I’m supporting Project Valour-IT.
The purpose of this project is to provide laptops that have been specially [...]

RIP

I’ve often said that I am a geek of immense proportions.  In my relatively short lifetime, I’ve seen all manner of technological wonders.  One of the most recent was the unmanned exploration of Mars, our next-door neighbor.
In the last few months, the Phoenix Mars Lander has provided a tremendous wealth of information about Mars; information [...]

Remember

Rather than go on about thanking veterans for this year’s Veteran’s Day, I’m just going to let the following videos do my talking for me.

To those Democrats with a 401(k)

Don’t you feel so much better now that the congress and president you chose is wanting to nationalize your private retirement fund?

Post-election blogging

Despite my many misgivings, I want to congratulate Senator President-elect Barack Obama on his election to the U.S. presidency.
That said, I will hold him to the same standard to which I held all previous presidents:  if he does well, he shall receive praise.  If he fouls up, as I expect will happen, he shall be called on it.  [...]

One more thing….

Yeah, I know I said I wasn’t going to talk about the presidential election, but there is one final thing I want to say.  For those of you in Harris County, take a moment to vote against C. O. Bradford, who is currently running for District Attorney.
Many of you in and around the Houston area [...]

Election Day

Here we are, folks.  We are on the homestretch of The Neverending Campaign between Barack Obama and John McCain.  I’m sure that many of you are like me in that you’re suffering from political burnout.  Because of this burnout, I’m going to make one last comment regarding this election:
Get out and vote.
It doesn’t matter to [...]

RIP

Last week, I blogged about Barack Obama taking a few days to visit his ailing grandmother. Sadly, Ms. Dunham has passed away on the eve of her grandson’s possible election to the highest elected office in America. Regardless of any dislike I may have of Sen. Obama’s political beliefs, I want to take a moment [...]
