Stupid In America

“Because K-12 education is a government monopoly and monopolies don’t improve.”

John Stossel hits the nail on the head, Teacher Unions are only the tip of the iceberg.

Massachusetts home sales soar

“It’s a comeback,” Case said. “There are reasons to be optimistic because baby boomers with lots of home equity are trading down and buying smaller homes at low prices and low interest rates.”

The volume of house sales is what is rising, the prices are still low and not increasing. But when the glut of unsold properties has been reduced, then, maybe.

Science Fiction Movements and Manifestos!

These are my People!

LIGHTSQUARED: The Next Obama Pay-For-Play Morass? “The Obama FCC took the lead in intervening on the donor, billionaire hedge fund manster Philip Falcone’s, behalf and granting his company called ‘LightSquared’ one of those coveted Obama waivers from existing law. Then Obama officials reportedly pressured a general to alter his testimony about the company’s impact on military satellite transmissions.”

LightSquared: Another Solyndra?

Its what community organizers do.

excerpt: For years within the telecom industry there have been persistent complaints that LightSquared majority owner Philip Falcone’s political connections with the White House and the Federal Communications Commission have led to political and regulatory favoritism for his company. Falcone is a hedge fund investor who made a fortune shorting subprime debt.

There are no poor people in America.

He’s right. After a year of unemployment I’m poorer than I was,…slightly. I’m rich compared to 99% of the people in the world.

Living Miserably

From Investors Business Daily, exactly the type of news that the TV and the Newspapers should be reporting, but don’t. Read this story then watch the news tonight, then think about what you didn’t see.

From American Digest:

Year upon year in this world’s forest dark,
Heaped at the foot of the trees,
The tangles and bundles of dead brush increase
Which sunlight shall never seize.

The vampire by sunlight or stake.
The wolfman by silver in bone.
The demon by book, chant and pentagram.
The fascist by fire alone.

The ash that descends in the clearest of skies?
The leapers that swam down the stones?
Best answered by bombs from mid-heaven at prayer
With the fire that hollows the bones.

The vampire by sunlight or stake.
The wolfman by silver in bone.
The demon by book, chant and pentagram.
The fascist by fire alone.

If their god decrees war, God’s war shall prevail.
His lessons are seared in the stone.
No dreams shall defer, nor wishes erase,
The answer that’s burned in the bone.

The vampire by sunlight or stake.
The wolfman by silver in bone.
The demon by book, chant and pentagram.
The fascist by fire alone.

Only by fire is fascism finished.
This sin is demanded that your line may live.
Only through fire is freedom reborn.
Each generation pulls the sword from the stone.

Report: ‘Romneycare’ a jobs killer

He owns it and still thinks it was a good idea, if Deval Patrick is “Obama Lite” then Romney is “Obama White”.

Boston Scientific CEO: Medical tax will mean job cuts

“We’re not going to get drawn into a game where somebody starts calling it a test of patriotism, where you move jobs outside the country or cut jobs when a tax is being put in place that taxes innovation,” he said. “It’s not our job to run the country. Our job’s to run this business and produce for shareholders.” -Elliot.

Go Galt.

The 2013 Tax Cliff

Temporary tax cuts, permanent new tax increases. Get the picture?

Obama proposal would cut the value of the charitable tax break by about 20 percent

Good idea to find out what he means when he says he’s going to tax the rich If Obama cuts tax breaks of charitable giving by the wealthy then they give less. If the simple method of claiming a deduction for charitable giving is removed but replaced with another complicated Federal form and reduced tax benefit how many wealthy donors will opt out.

Even Republicans Rejected Info About Obama’s Past

Was it because they thought that the story would be rejected as “negative campaigning”?

Some observations on the Tea Party/CNN debate

“…but I have noted over the years that Texas seems more friendly—in personal demeanor and in public policy—to immigrants, illegal and legal, than such supposedly more tolerant states as California. My observation is that liberal Californians tend to regard Latinos as valet parkers, assistant gardeners and construction laborers, while Texans of all political stripes—the many conservatives as well as the relatively few liberals–regard Latinos as Texans.”

Interesting point, I wonder if it’s true.

Despite Social Security, older voters like Perry

If that’s the response, then Rommey is making a mistake attacking Perry on SS.

I think Rommey’s decision to stick by Rommeycare will be the stone that sinks his campaign, I certainly don’t want him if he hasn’t learned his lesson that the program is a failure that most Americans don’t want repeated.

Stop Calling the Tea Party Extreme. It Isn’t.

Me, I’m extreme. The Tea Party not so much. Taxed Enough Already.
