OK, so while his wife was dying of cancer, John Edwards was banging his staff. Pretty sleezy stuff. He cranked out a kid, paid her a bunch of cash to keep quiet, then flaked out in a hotel. More sleezy stuff. Erase squeaky clean image, insert trash. But what I also think is the legal [...]

See if these two maps seem to have a running theme. First, Map 1. No titles, no labels, just ten pins: If that doesn’t seem clear enough, try this one: That is the ten richest counties in the USA according to the 2010 census. What do you think the odds are that five of them [...]

An article today pointed to the fact that not all National Rifle Association members are against Obama. Heck, Obama even has the support of the American Hunters and Shooters Association. Hey, since it has the words “hunter” and “shooter” in its title, it’s got to be about guys who like to shoot things with guns, [...]

The jam we’re in right now was put in place thirty years ago. In that time, we’ve gone from being an energy exporter to an energy junkie. It really doesn’t matter where we get our hit, so long as we don’t have to accept any responsibility for it. For instance: Oil – The Democrats absolutely [...]

Seems the federal budget deficit dropped. Again. Seems all of a sudden hardly anyone really seems to care. Wasn’t that an issue last fall? Didn’t people totally ignore the numbers of a shrinking deficit and decide to buy the rhetoric that the budget was out of control? Why did they do that? Now, what’s getting [...]

The Democrats haven’t even officially taken over the government yet, but they are already tossing out anything Republican as fast as they can.

Here’s the ONLY part that was changed that appease the ACLU: The lawsuit, filed in July 2003 on behalf of the Muslim Community Association of Ann Arbor, Mich., and five other nonprofit groups, was the first legal challenge to [...]

I really can’t believe this one: A federal jury awarded $24.2 million to two men who were severely burned by electrical wires when they trespassed onto railroad property and climbed atop a rail car. OK, you’ve got these very large vehicles that travel very, very, fast. You’ve got these bare wires that connect to these [...]
