I noted the plan earlier, but just in case you thought it was likely some right wing conspiracy fantasy, I expect you’ll start to see more and more of this: “Bank of America Freezes Gun Manufacturer’s Account, Company Owner Claims”. Hey, you use your political muscle to bail out a few giant banks and those institutions, which you regulate as well, quickly learn on which side their bread is buttered.

“Health Insurers Raise Some Rates by Double Digits”
Those bastards! And after all Obama’s done to make sure we get affordable, universal health care. Like, for instance, naming his 2700-page health care law the “Affordable Care Act.” I mean shit, what more can the dude do? Affordability is right there in the name! It’s almost as if the market doesn’t really respond well to economically impossible dictates — no matter who insists upon them, or how “historic” that
“Crony capitalism: Obama going for gun control with tactic used to pass Obamacare”
Here, read it yourself. I’ll only comment thusly: if you make an imperial move, colluding with big corporate entities to reward their obeisance, that turns millions of erstwhile law-abiding Americans into instant felons by infringing on their natural and Constitutional rights — by way of confiscation schemes, banning schemes, or onerous taxation schemes — do not act surprised or outraged when those felons, accepting their new lot, begin acting accordingly.
“The Socialist Mind Game: A Brief Manual”
A few days old but worth your time, if you haven’t already come across it. From the American Thinker: Conservatives have their Constitution. Progressives have their Narrative. The current battle for America is between these two concepts, and each side uses different rules to fight it. One set of rules is consistent with an unchanging objective: limited government and individual freedoms. The other side’s rules are as fickle as their
The sub-humanizing of the Hobbity Visigoth extremists takes another step forward
“Nat Geo Producer: John Wilkes Booth ‘Could Be the Poster Child for the Tea Party’”: Executive Producer Erik Jendresen of National Geographic Channel’s upcoming television movie “Killing Lincoln,” said John Wilkes Booth “could be the poster child for the Tea Party.” “This is not the act of somebody who can easily be dismissed as a psychopath, so that it’s easy to understand, ‘Oh well, he was crazy,’” Jendresen said of
recursion / nostalgia
It’s an inside joke, but long-time readers deserve it. So here’t goes: one mile high dirt berm, with an (unmentioned, but still plausible) outside chance of balloon fencing! You know, sometimes I think God is just bored, and he thinks an enjoyable way to pass the time is to reach down and give a few random titty twisters. Which explanation sure beats the hell out of any light Darwin might
“Md. Gun Show: Long Lines, Short Supplies, ‘Get ‘Em Before They’re Gone’ Desperation”
Hey, looks like even ill-informed lockstep liberals — and Maryland, my home state, is thick with them — can be awakened from their intellectual and political stupor from time to time: I took a ride up to Frederick, Maryland this weekend to meet a friend at the Fairgrounds for the gun show. What we found was similar to what gun shows and gun dealers are experiencing across the nation: lines
Because things are going so swimmingly, and because, well, forward!
And let’s be realistic here: sometimes in order to go forward, you have to redefine it to mean backward — be it with de-industrialization policies, the tearing down of damns, the suppression of oil and gas exploration, the return to a race- and sex- and orientation-based system of special pleading and governmental dispensation, the desire to secure a steady economic class system by destroying the middle class bourgeoisie and coopting
Harry Reid: Hurricane Katrina was “nothing in comparison” with Sandy [Darleen Click]
Democrat apparatchik media on the Reidism? Crickets.
