I cannot get away from this crap.  Sure, it just sits there on the right, but why am I being pressed non-stop to subscribe to these nimrods?  I have no desire to hear whatever it is they say.  Personally, I think it’s their moronic auto-suggestion thing converging on a trivial solution.  They couldn’t be this stupid, could they?

Vision for future structure of this blog:
“Front: page looks much like it does now, but with only “chops” or extracts, functioning more like an index.  Allows greater number of posts to be linked on the default landing page.  Retain two/three column format.

Detail pages should absorb selected sidebar content into an “inline sidebar”, like an extended pullquote, or a “resource box”.  Wipe out actual css sidebars (retain only on front/index) and make content wider to increase info density without creating a wall of text.  Inline sidebars and other methods will help manage text flow.

In our dark moments, we wonder: If this is freedom, what’s the big deal?

China

China is undergoing its most significant upheaval since becoming a communist state.  Any communist revolution is by definition an attempt to deny and suppress the spirit of man.  The current transition will be both more important and more successful than the revolution there, because this move has been anticipated for thousands of years–it is led by reality, rather than the other way around.  China, long famous for deprecating any knowledge or influence from barbarian realms, is becoming oriented beyond its own borders.

While we dither and kowtow by re-forming NASA into the North African Space Administration (with a mission to make Muslim countries feel proud of their accomplishments, no less), the Chinese are … Continue reading →

» The White House Guess List: How Obama Pulled a Fast One on the American People – in the Name of ‘Transparency’ – Big Government

Congressional hearings over issues such as Solyndra should include questions about meetings at places like those mentioned below.  Jeck, just for GP.  If it becomes a standard question to ask Obama cronies if they met with admin officials at any coffee shop, cafe, townhouse or other venue during specified periods of time, the results could be instructive, especially in the aggregate.

…some of the most important presidential visitors don’t even walk into the White House. The administration meets K Street lobbyists at Caribou Coffee, and holds secret meetings in Jackson Place townhouses where there are no visitor logs.

The visitor logs that have been released are problematic, because they are simply lists of names, with no way to verify whether a specific name belongs to a particular person.

I confess.  This is really a bookmark for later.

In his two years and nine months in office, President Obama has compiled a spectacular record of noncompliance with the Constitution. Here are just some of the ways his administration has failed to execute the laws while using raw, unauthorized power:

I am really going to enjoy popping targets as these hacks prop them up.

At the risk of taking too seriously what appear to be political arguments dressed up as constitutional claims, Constitutional Accountability Center has launched a series of articles, here at Text & History, which examines claims made by the Tea Party and its most prominent allies about the Constitution and put them to the test against the Constitution’s text and history. The series, entitled Strange Brew: The Constitution According to the Tea Party, draws upon the words of our nation’s charter, constitutional debates and other legislative history, and the best constitutional scholarship available. The goal of the series is to ensure that, as Americans engage in conversations and debates about the Constitution, we are all … Continue reading →
