From the file of things that are just weird, a town on Sunday “lost” water. No, seriously, they have no idea where it went! Continue reading →

Gov. Ted Kulongoski of Oregon is proving a truism about government – they hate it when people find ways around their tax schemes. For years states have relied on gasoline taxes hidden in the price of the final product to pay for all sorts of things that the politicians in them want to accomplish. Usually it is for roads and transportation but the funds often have a habit of being siphoned off for other tasks as well. Continue reading →

Whenever someone tells me that true poverty is rampant in America I have to laugh. Sure, there are a handful of people in America that are destitute but baring some major mental defect they can make a better life for themselves. I laugh though because true poverty is what you see when you visit the remote tribes of Africa, not America’s poorest areas. Continue reading →

First it was James Frey’s fabricated memoir, “A Million Little Pieces,” a book which Oprah promoted with her book club only to later on find out that the “non-fiction” best seller had great swaths of fabrication woven in to it. Now, Oprah has been duped again with the revelation that Herman Rosenblat’s, “Angel at the Fence: The True Story of a Love that Survived,” is a lie: Continue reading →

It is not that hard to understand. Only the most insane of criminals pick on someone they suspect is armed, perhaps better armed than them, and prepared for the attack. Why? Because criminals don’t want to die. What they want is to take something and get away. Weapons in the hands of their potential victims make them think twice. Continue reading →

Despite previous claims that a slow economy would prompt Barack Obama to rethink his madness of letting the Bush Tax Cuts expire and raising taxes, readers of American Conservative Daily did not believe him. And just this past Sunday, David Axlerod confirmed that Obama has no such plans of being reasonable: Continue reading →

The question has been raised but outside of people actually taking notice and that care about America it has been getting little coverage. That question is does Barack Obama really want to be President or is he just more interested in playing President? Sure, Obama like every other liberal is long on rhetoric and short on useful solutions, but since just before election day the man has seemed far more content to be President without actually being President. Continue reading →

Is it possible that Barack Obama doesn’t even own the home in which he lived? If so, then why? Did Obama not make enough money to pay the mortgage on his plush, Chicago home? Or is he having someone else pay the bill while greedily stashing his own money away (something he, his wife and his spiritual mentor, Rev. Wright all appeared to be against)? Continue reading →

Could Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany be smarter than the majority of the American Congress, the current president and the president-elect? The answer is perhaps as she resists calls from the socialists and the corporatists (i.e. socialists who run industry) in Germany to bail them out of their poor business models and bad choices. Continue reading →

Here is an interesting article sent in by a reader that I just have to comment on. It deals with Scientific illiteracy among high profile people like Barack Obama and John McCain and also takes an unwarranted swipe at SarahPalin by an ignorant author which I will address later. Continue reading →

Liberals like Andy Burnham see an ally in Barack Obama. Maybe it was all his anti-liberty rhetoric over the years and all his campaign promises that have made him believe that Obama would be an ally in regulating the internet and the content contained therein? Continue reading →

Liberals claim to be tolerant. Liberals claim to be inclusive. Liberals also claim to be “smart”. But time and again we see that they are none of these nor any number of other things they claim. Here is a story from WorldNetDaily.com that continues to add proof to shatter these claims as a scientist, fired for not towing to the liberal line on man made Global Warming, has joined the list of scientists expressing skepticism over Al Gore’s religion. Continue reading →

Yes, socialism and the central planning that goes with it sure is great! Hugo Chavez is teaching everyone a strong lesson in what government run amok is all about. On a whim the all knowing, all caring, all seeing dictator – uh – I mean “President” can tell you and everyone else how land will be used: Continue reading →

A time out from politics to wish you and yours the happiest of Christmas seasons. Continue reading →

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (or as I have always called him “Ineedajihad”) has said a lot of bizarre things over the years – often to deny them later when they come to light – but he is now going one step further. He now claims to speak for Jesus Christ: Continue reading →

The “scientists” promoting certain death at the hands of the myth of man made Global Warming are not taking Christmas off from promoting their religion and their High Priest, Al Gore. Often referred to as $cienti$t$ because if the truth be told they are in it for the money and notoriety, these people are bound and determined to strip any joy from the lives of men and return them to a dark age where they will be the determiners of who is consuming too much. Christmas lights are once again in their sights and once again we are being told that decorating for Christmas is harming the planet: Continue reading →

Rep. Barney Frank has his thong in a twist over Barack Obama and his language as of late is bordering on blasphemy! See, Barney Frank is one of those deluded souls who believes that you can (and should) rewrite the definition of marriage to suit his and the homosexual community’s wishes. They run around and stomp their feet claiming that they must be granted the right to “marry” people of the same sex as they are even though that is not what marriage is. But hey, it sounds good and gives people a reason to dress up inassless chaps and big peacock feathered outfits in drag so what they hey! Continue reading →

Unions can serve an important role in protecting workers but far too often they act like they own the businesses they work for and should be coddled less they through a hissy fit and throw up a picket line because someone dared to turn on a light switch without going through the appropriate channels and have Bob drive over from half and hour away to do the job the union rules dictate he must. Think I’m joking? No, silly things like this really do happen. Continue reading →
