Getting a car loan is tough
(Preview)
I know a guy that, up until recently, managed a car dealership. He said that towards the end of his time there, he helped someone buy a car that had really good credit and a respectable income. His credit score was pretty much perfect. But the first two banks he applied to for a car loan turned him down befo...

Record cold in Siberia
(Preview)
Two times this last month Siberia has had its temperature drop to -76 fahrenheit. Before this, it had only reached that temperature twice in the last 25 years. So much for global warming.

Illinois governor arrested
(Preview)
Arrested, charged, released, back at work? Drudge Report says he's not stepping down. Does this man have dirt on Obama or Emmanuel? I wonder if it's one of those "If I go down I'm taking you all with me" type situations.

Big 3 Automakers
(Preview)
Congress has put off the question of help for the big 3 US automakers. What are your thoughts? I have a friend who manages a GM car dealership. He's for the government helping. He says that if GM goes under they become a used car lot. And this is not a chicken little style fear. GM could be going under as soon...

Global warming
(Preview)
Global warming has been a lot in the news, especially with Barack Obama promising to bankrupt the coal industry and send electricity prices soaring. This gave rise to the thought on my part that I'm about as happy with them basing national economic policy on the global warming hoax as I would be with th...

Where the republicans went wrong

In my opinion, where the republican party went wrong was when they decided to abandon their principles and become a branch of the democratic party. Just look at the presidential candidates. Are you for a cap and trade environmental system? So were both candidates! Are you for allowing illegals into...

My thoughts on the Prop 8 fallout
(Preview)
So far, gay riots in the aftermath of prop 8 have not died out. This is obviously not an issue that they're going to let be. I have heard that it is possible that the California Supreme Court may suspend Prop 8 this week. If they do, there is no justice; that means that they're ruling from on high with no set i...

Gays in Utah and legislation
(Preview)
Gays in Utah have taken the church's statement that we don't oppose same sex civil unions and misinterpreted it as support for such legislation. It doesn't work that way. Not opposing something is not always the same as supporting it. In my opinion, the church is simply choosing its battles.

What is marriage?
(Preview)
Because of the recent (and ongoing) controversy, I've been thinking a lot about the definition of marriage in light of the attacks on it. To me, the institution of marriage boils down to this: it allows you to participate fully in the plan of salvation, and it allows you to bring more of HF's children in...

Facts = bigotry?

Today on another forum, Proposition 8 was being discussed. They were talking about how unfair it was that Yes on 8 had more funding, the wording was confusing, and it had too much out of state support. I very factually pasted the entire wording of the proposition (very simple and not at all confusing) a...

My day as an election judge

I was an election judge (poll worker) yesterday. Other than it being a really long shift for very low pay, it was an interesting experience. I loaded up smart cards for the voters to use in the voting machines. I was the only third party person I met during the day. Maybe the other third party voters went t...

Anyone expecting trouble in their locale come Nov. 5th?
(Preview)
If Obama loses, I would be surprised not to see riot and such. I think there will be even if he wins. I hope not, but from what we have seen, I am concerned. I live in a small, rural town, so not real concerned. Mags are always loaded anyway, might as well load a few extra. Any concerns in your areas?

Reagan II (Long Winded)

I think I know why we are having trouble finding our next Reagan. And when I say Reagan I mean a credible political figure who can persuasively and positively articulate the conservative message. Barring a miracle, Obama will win this week. What will follow is a soul searching of the GOP. What went w...

Media bias
(Preview)
According to this what if article, an Obama loss would "shake american politics to its very core". I was shocked when I read that. Why would an Obama loss shake american politics to its very core? This Obama as messiah thing has gotten really old. And it will only get worse when he wins.

Roller coaster stock market
(Preview)
You know, I was thinking the other day when we had those tremendous gains in the stock market. Wouldn't it be better to have steady growth, instead of record drops and record rises? I think that the stock market being up 800 points is almost as unhealthy as it being down by the same amount.

Since I am out of work and live in the country, I won't be doing anything different. But a lot of guys on arfcom, a huge gun site, are either not going in or going loaded for bear just in case things go bad, as in Rodney King bad. It seems that many, myself included, feel that if McCain wins, and maybe if Obam...
