A movie to watch....

Last night my wife and I watched a DVD titled "An Unreasonable Man" which chronicled much of Ralph Nader's public life since his rise to prominence in the late 50's. Have any of you seen it? Though I disagree with much of Nader's political views, I have to hand it to him for his tenacity and u...

Now is the time for legal immigration

Now that corporations are beginning to be affected when they hire illegal immigrants, and that businesses are having a hard time filling jobs they once held - it is time to allow more legal immigration.

Another Child Victimized at the Hands Of A Repeat Offender Illegal Alien
(Preview)
Well now it's happened in California. An illegal immigrant has raped a 3 year old and it is the governments fault. The illegal immigrant had been deported seven years ago after molesting another child but he came back. In 2006 he was picked up for a DUI in San Bernadino. So he already has the molest...

A conservative blogger's reaction to Ron Paul's debate performance: Ron Paul is now starting to scare me. Glenn Reynolds calls him a kook, but that is charitable. He is worse. Paul gives me the willies. Something about watching him talk about "neo conservatives" in tonight's debate wit...

Are all services provided by the Government evil? And at what level do they become unbearably evil? Will a nationalized healthcare plan summon the four horsemen of the apocalypse? And if so, why? Are there any government services that aren't evil? --Ray

More on global warming

Here is an article about an expert climatologist who thinks that we're just in a normal warming cycle. What I thought was most interesting was his statement that if you went outside and spit it would cause more warming than a doubling of the co2. And it's not like this guy is some whacko who thinks that a m...

Is it possible to get a city to reconsider zoning?

GRRRR. We built our house almost 2 years ago in a nice rural-ish area. We love our neighborhood; it's friendly, well-kept, and quiet. We're surrounded by other nice neighborhoods, farmland, and a couple of nurseries and other innocuous businesses. I'm sure you can see where this is going. Just nort...

Civil Disobedience

Most people talk about the importance of being law abiding, but it seems that that devotion to law disappears for many people when it comes to an area that they feel strongly about. The same also happens when it comes to a law that people consider to be unimportant. For instance, in pretty much any place...

I'm really afraid to bring this up on here. But I'm wondering what a good solution is on health care, because I'm really stumped. I don't think that the government should socialize medicine. Australia, Canada, and England are good examples of the bad that happens when countries do that. I don't th...

I just am not interested in politics at the moment, which I normally am. I wonder what it could be? The Democrats in congress are just as crazy as ever, the Republicans are acting the same, and here I am not surprised. Anyone else feel the same way?
