How To Stop Criminals: Allow Guns

After the recent shootings at Northern Illinois University, one of my first thoughts was to ask myself a tough political question. Should/could we prevent further attacks like this with stricter gun laws?
It took me about fifteen seconds to come to my senses. No, of course not: less guns aren’t the answer. […]

How Many Five Year Olds Could You Take In A Fight? (Dot Com)

A few years back, my brother was still at Marquette University in Milwaukee. He had a roommate that once asked an interesting question (and a question, I should point out, that I then asked to BipolarNation on the message boards). It goes like this:
How many five year olds could you take in a […]

2008 Presidential Campaign Lookalikes, Part I

I think the title is pretty self-explanatory.  When you see these people over and over for months and years on end, you start to notice things you wouldn’t otherwise notice.  Here are some eerily similar looking people:

Left:  Barack Obama.  Right:  Dr. Ian Smith from “Celebrity Fit Club”

Left:  “Meet the Press” moderator Tim Russert.  Right:  Jack […]

Oscar Predictions 2008

Since 2000 I can remember going category-by-category and predicting who would win each Oscar, but I’ve never posted my predictions up on BipolarNation before the actual night.  Considering that the Oscars are this Sunday and I only have this one weekday to post before it happens, it’s the perfect time to do it.
Get pumped, baby!  […]

An Idiot’s Guide to American Politics

Politics.
To those of you regular readers and those of you who participate in the BipolarNation.com political forums, I’m going to go ahead and trust that you’re of above average intelligence and don’t need an introduction into politics.
The superior demographic of BPN readers aside, there are a lot of people out there, particularly youngsters, who don’t […]

Ka-pow!

Star wars time, baby! The U.S. is set to shoot down the USA-193 spy satellite as early as tonight, which was launched in December of ‘06. For whatever reason, ground controllers lost contact with the satellite after it was launched.
Behind all of the War on Terrorism news, the Space Race has been harboring […]

This Just In: Barack Obama Supports Change

Update 2/19: As if on cue, Ben and Jerry has come out with their new flavor of ice cream supporting Obama, “Cherries for Change.”
It’s easier to listen to Ashy Larry talk than it is to read about his policy. In Wisconsin, which has its primary coming up, we’ve been inundated with Barack Obama’s […]

If I Ruled America: Infrastructure

In my series “If I Ruled America,” I’ve already talked about what kind of country I’d like to see. So far I’ve covered the overview of my government and what kind of foreign policy that government would have.
If I Ruled America: Foreign Policy
If I Ruled America: Preamble
Now, I will talk about what I […]

A Quick Comparison: Barack Obama and Abraham Lincoln

To a pro-lifer, even writing the “Barack Obama” and “Abraham Lincoln” in the same blog post makes me feel like throwing up, but I can’t help but notice some interesting parallels (and perpendicularities) between the two politicians from Illinois.  So I thought I’d make a list of them, just to keep track of it in […]

Test of Faith? Test THIS, Mamma Jammas!

So let me get this straight: you’re over 50, have been Catholic all your life, used your faith to get you through some “tough times” (well, if you consider puberty a universal trial), and you’ve held to Catholicism all your life. Then, the media rides the “molestation” wave, and now - NOW - […]
