REFLECTIONS

Lower Merion School District in Philadelphia is well funded.  Funded well enough in fact that they issued laptops to high-school students.  All well and good so far, eh?
Blake J Robbins v. Lower Merion School District paints a picture straight out of 1984.  The Robbin’s child was disciplined by the school for “improper behavior”.  (What’s that [...]

It is not industry — the US Government directly responsible!  In order to avoid spoilage I will just post the link … trust me, the proof is worth seeing.

The EIF (Entertainment Industry Foundation) has just annouced the “I Participate” initiative.  This is an effort by the Foundation to promote volunteerism in America by showing characters on many national TV shows volunteering for this and that.
President Obama is noted for also promoting volunteerism.  And the report in the Chicago Tribune, EIF officials say they [...]

Passing this one on from some friends at another forum …
If a conservative doesn’t like guns, he doesn’t buy one.
If a liberal doesn’t like guns, he wants all guns outlawed.
If a conservative is a vegetarian, he doesn’t eat meat.
If a liberal is a vegetarian, he wants all meat products banned for everyone.
If a conservative sees [...]

Last night I attended the Darrell Issa townhall meeting. They announced attendance at over 3000, at least half of which was outside the auditorium … which was cooler than inside. There were loudspeakers so everyone outside could hear quite well.
There was a prepared handout explaining his position on the health care issue, which [...]

Obama, talking about obamacare:
These are all fabrications that have been put out there in order to discourage people from meeting what I consider to be a core ethical and moral obligation. That is that we look out for one other, that I am my brother’s keeper, I am my sister’s keeper. And in the wealthiest [...]

Last tuesday, Speaker Nancy Pelosi said that the healthcare protestors were not true grassroots, but “astroturf”. The implication, of course, is that they are artificial and manufactured protestors.
The site Looking at the Left has a photo-essay on a visit by Speaker Pelosi to Denver.
Here are just a couple of the pictures from that photo essay, [...]

Ok, we have been picking apart the truely horrible provisions of the Health Care Abomination (HR 3200), and have missed one very basic thing.
This thing is written in terms of “Y1″ (the first year of implementation) and subsequent years.   Ok … but the question that most of us have not asked is “what is [...]

As homeschoolers, BurkeanMama and I are members of HSLDA – the Home School Legal Defense Association.  Their latest magazine had a cover story that stunned me, entitled “Will U.N. Treaty Disarm America?“ 
Now the idea that the U.N. wants your guns is nothing new.  The article discusses the U.N. Convention on the Rights of the Child, [...]

In a delicious case of irony, Kindle (the “connected” ebook reader) owners woke up to find that their purchased copies of 1984, by George Orwell, had silently become unbooks.
This all harks back to the whole issue of DRM (Digital Rights Management), which is in the best traditions of Orwell a pernicious lie.  The Amazon Kindle [...]

The Health Care Reform Supporters have been careful to say that you will be able to keep your health insurance under the new plan. What they have just as carefully not said is that should you lose your current insurance — perhaps by changing jobs — you will never be able to buy private health [...]

 
From the Wall Street Journal Online.

Briefly, it tells us about the South Park episode called “Gnomes” in which little men steal underwear in order to get rich.  When the kids ask, the Gnomes tell them The Plan:
Phase 1: collect underpants
Phase 3: get rich
When the kids ask “but what about phase two?”  The Gnomes answer “but [...]

Yesterday we went to the Tea Party held in Oceanside, CA.  There was quite a decent turnout.  We met in front of City Hall, then followed a dump truck loaded with (simulated) tea down to the beach to be dumped into the water. (For all you eco-libs out there - it was sand, not real [...]

So see it here.  This blog has an article on Feb. 27 titled “Harry Potter and the Ziono-Hollywoodists“.  It contains a clip from Iranian TV linking Harry Potter to Global Zionism and their efforts at World Domination.
Yes.  This doesn’t just happen in the past.  Or in books.  It’s here, now.  And as many times as [...]

I am sure you have all heard by now of the Muslim TV exec who decapitated his wife because she wanted to divorce him. I just thought I would make sure we were absolutely clear about something. Muzzammil Hassan did not just work at this TV network — he was it’s [...]

 
They’ve finally gone and let their true feelings about the Obamamessiah slip out.
Confirmation can be found at World Net Daily
 

Just saw this:
under a law Congress passed last year aimed at regulating hazards in children’s products, the federal government has now advised that children’s books published before 1985 should not be considered safe and may in many cases be unlawful to sell or distribute.
Aside from the issue of putting out of business just about every [...]
