Liberty Reborn

Sonya Sotomayor has become a household name now that she has been nominated to fill a vacancy on the United States Supreme Court. A Hispanic Woman who we are constantly told has a wonderful back-story, Sotomayor’s qualifications for the job are often not even discussed in depth. When her qualifications are discussed, they are often lied about. When they cannot be lied about, the lack of her ability that is apparent is poo pooed.

The full court press by the apocalyptic Church Of Man Made Global Warming continues. The time remaining to convince people that man is warming the Earth is precariously slipping away and the sands in the hour glass are running out without much headway having been made except among the political elite controlling the levers and switches of government and the mindless sheep seeking a cause to believe in no matter how wrong that cause is.

Wednesday night my wife was flipping through the channels while I was diligently working on some website updates and our daughter was busy, well, being an eighteen month old and causing general havoc in preparation for her Wednesday night bath. When to what did my wife’s eyes and my ears draw our attention to? None other that Barack Obama as a Jeopardy category that’s what.

Barack Obama wants his family to have a dog, something that is rather a tradition for the first family in the White House. Much like Obama has sent out an incredibly detailed questionnaire for potential employees of his administration, I can now reveal that he has a similar questionnaire for all of the candidates of First Dog.

The popular phrase used to describe John McCain’s presidential aspirations has been the “Straight Talk Express”. According to the popular myth, John McCain “tells it like it is” and lets you know exactly where he stands. Those that have bought into this myth have flocked to John McCain as someone they can trust. Others have been scared onto his campaign, accepting him as by far the lesser of two evils.

Recently here in Pennsylvania the anti-smokers have been on the march waging their usual campaign against private property rights. On radio they have been running ads featuring two fictitious anti-smokers sitting in a restaurant having a nice chat, ordering waffles and bemoaning how they like the food but hate the evil, vile, disgusting smokers that the owners have the gall to allow in the restaurant and breathe the same air as they are. They then revert to the typical canard of the government should “do something”.

So which are you? Are you a racist or are you a sexist? This is the question that is facing Democrats this election year as they head to the polls and decide whether to vote for Hillary Clinton or for Barack Obama.

Well, Don Imus has done it. The mumbling fool has once again proven, completely unwittingly of course, that there are just some things that you cannot say without drawing the ire of so-called leaders of a particular group (any group) unless you are a member of that group.

Some people still have a long way to go in judging people based on their merits rather than their skin color. On January 21st, 2007 both the Indianapolis Colts and the Chicago Bears won their respective conference championships to advance to the Super Bowl. I know, some of you may not want to read about sports but hey, it’s my article and I’ll do what I want.

Sometimes it amazes me how often that regardless of whatever article I have written for a given week, by Tuesday or Wednesday I find something else that causes me to rush back to my keyboard and pound out something new. I guess I should be thankful for the plethora of idiocy that exists in the world because I could easily go on vacation for the next three months and still have articles to send out to publishers each week just from my existing backlog.
