REFLECTIONS

“I keep thinking that insanity is a state where a person can’t tell what’s real.  Well what’s real now is insane and if I accepted it as real, I’d have to lose my mind wouldn’t I?”  Eddie Willers in Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand Yes I admit it I succumbed to peer pressure; I read [...]

So the Sec. of Energy has decided its the government’s job to forbid the American consumer from wasting their money.  http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/271470/light-motif-mark-steyn Well if the government must ban wastes of money I suggest he start with , DVDs of the 2nd Star Wars trilogy,  tickets to any movie with a numeral in the title or starring Sean [...]

Like the corn of which a more wholesome America sang, the hypocrisy today  is as high as an elephant’s eye.   The USA celebrates that for which we condemn Israel: the single minded hunting and killing of a terrorist over many years.   http://pajamasmedia.com/tatler/2011/05/02/condemn-this-awful-act-of-illegal-american-violence/ The liberals meanwhile are rejoicing because President Obama has done that  for which President Bush was called [...]

“The Republicans will end medicare as we know it” is the battle cry and from President Obama to the Union thugs at Townhalls we hear this every day.  This is not new, this is not different.  Medicare was passed in the first place to turn citizens into subjects dependent on government, same as that great [...]

Liberals are so maddening, so utterly removed from reality sometimes I think they are deliberately trying to Gaslight us.  If they just keep saying crazy things sooner or later we will all just lose our minds.  Today’s mind boggling liberal upside down craziness comes in the form of an absurd column at Pajamas Media about [...]

#fb This man blows in every direction of the political winds. He is divisive as H. Ross Perot was in 1992, and we must recall what that gave us. Succinctly, I have little trust in him and at best he would be Bush45. Thus, I will not support this man in any primary or general [...]

The internet is alive with the sound of conservatives patting themselves on the back.  Aha!  they are shouting.  We are all neo-cons now!  Obama’s Libyan adventure has conservatives gloating “this proves Bush was right all along”. Oft-quoted is the remark by candidate Obama in 2007 that it is illegal for the President to go to [...]

The only thing I fear now is not the anti-American, Marxist narcissist in the White House, it is who’s next?   Pres. Carter almost destroyed American power but he was followed by Ronald Reagan and it was the Soviets that went into the dust bin of history.   Pres. Worse-than-Carter is doing far more damage, but try [...]

The conservative civil war over Obama’s intentions is as I said before perfectly ridiculous http://marlettsmith.com/blog/index.php/2011/02/23/by-his-deeds/ But now that Obama himself has said he would prefer being a communist dictator  http://weaselzippers.us/2011/03/11/obama-it-would-be-so-much-easier-to-be-the-president-of-china/  will Medved and Ferguson and the rest of the wimps please shut up already. He likes Marxism, he likes dictatorial power, he hates being accountable [...]

The conservative civil war continues I see.  Being a conservative war it is fought only with words of course.  But Professor Sowell’s brilliant take down of Michael Medved this morning is as if the US Marines had attacked a boy scout troop.  ( Yes I know Marines would never do that.)  http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/260399/voices-moderation-thomas-sowell The question I [...]

When a nation seizes the fairly earned wages of its citizens in order to pay a misogynist to advertise a bankrupt automobile company, that nation deserves to fail. That’s all I got.

As an official Jewish mother I find nothing wrong with Sarah Palin describing what has been done to her as a Blood Libel.  Blood Libel is the false accusation of murders.  For millenia it has been the tool the Jew hater has used against the Jewish people.  It is still the tool used to this [...]

Okay let me see if I get this straight.   Faced with a psychopath who murdered half dozen people and critically wounded a sitting Congresswoman, lawmakers have decided the answer is legislation requiring a gun-free zone 1000 feet around all elected officials.  Now the psychopath has no respect for human life or laws protecting human life, but [...]

The House of Representative has decided to shut down for a week in light of the recent horror in Arizona.   This is such a bad idea.  One deeply disturbed individual gets the notoriety of his dreams with a horrifying act of mass murder.   That is heart wrenching and painful in of itself.   But now this one sick man will be [...]

If  you loathe the Constitution for the flaws it once contained, how can you in honesty take an oath to protect and preserve it?  If you took the oath only to obtain the office, but hold the Constitution in contempt, then your office and your service is a fraud.  http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2011/01/028085.php The guys at Powerline are [...]

I can’t top the Powerline guys when it comes to analyzing Palestinian Arabs so I am not going to even try This is, by a wide margin, the sickest culture on Earth, and for the foreseeable future, there isn’t anything that can be done about it. The only question is why do people like Condoleezza [...]

The GOP once again proves it is the party of suckers and wimps.   Look every rational person knows that tax increases hinder economic growth.  Tax increases are actually exercises in futility.   Tax revenues go down after a tax increase, because economic growth was stifled.  Ironically cutting taxes actually increases tax revenue because the greater growth [...]
