All of the current economic craziness boggles my mind. Ever hear the phrase “much ado about nothing”? And I’m not talking about your typical Today Show segment.
It’s much ado about nothing because there is no economy. I’m not trying to go Matrix on you here: the economy is just an abstract idea that describes commerce […]
I harp on Publick Edyoo-kayshun a lot, and with good reason - it stinks. And there are thousands of reasons for that.
But am I a little biased because I grew up reading Calvin and Hobbes?
Growing up and strongly disenjoying school, I always liked to Calvin’s (from Calvin and Hobbes, the greatest cartoon of all […]
When Big Education nutjobs aren’t busy indoctrinating your kids with BS, making them stupid, or making them fat, they’re fighting to make sure it’s illegal for you to educate your kids yourself.
In California, where over 150,000 kids are homeschooled, an appellate court has ruled that parents don’t have the constitutional right to homeschool their kids.
It’s […]
This past weekend, hippies around the world all participated in “Earth Hour,” in which everyone turned off their lights for an hour. Even Google’s home page turned black for a little while as the search engine wanted to join in.
What a waste of time.

Yesterday the Supreme Court debated a longtime Washington D.C. ban on handguns as it pertains to the U.S. Constitution. Hippies and hicks alike protested outside the Supreme Court with opposing signs like “guns kill” and “guns are an American right.”
The day ended as hicks celebrated the delibrations by breaking whiskey bottles, shooting their guns into […]
Update: Here’s a nice story of Bobby Jindal beating down commies with his logic. From the story:
Off the top of his head, Jindal started going down the list. He snapped Gerard’s smaller concerns like dry twigs, citing statistics and anecdotes as if they were memorized specifically for this moment. The larger socialist arguments […]
Last week I had a letter to the editor published in the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, responding to a column in which the President of Wisconsin Planned Parenthood blathered on about sex education programs:
James M. Stewart, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin, recently advocated the expansion of sex education in Wisconsin schools, particularly in Milwaukee […]
Well, for global warming to stay in popular thought, it would have to. We’re emerging from one of the coldest winters in the U.S. in recent years, as well as a year - 2007 - which saw record cold temperatures.
In 2005, a Canadian Greenpeace representative explained “global warming can mean colder, it can mean […]
Whenever someone tries to defend teachers unions, I feel like Bruce Wayne looking to the sky and seeing the Bat Signal. It’s time to clean out the scum.
Of course, none other than my former teacher Tom Zachek weighs in with a column defending WEAC, the Wisconsin Education Association Council, which roughly translated means “Group […]
