Without the ingenuity of America’s brightest minds and the investment of U.S. Taxpayer dollars, there would be no Internet, as we now know it today.

Of all the responses to the devastation in Haiti, the most copy-worthy is televangelist Pat Robertson’s claim that the earthquake was divine retribution.  In making his case, he told a story about how Haitian leaders long ago made a pact with Satan, promising to serve him if he would help vanquish their French oppressors.  The Devil delivered, said Robertson, but the consequence is that the nation has ever since been cursed, with one disaster befalling it after another.  It was reminiscent of when the late Jerry Falwell said - and Robertson agreed - that those who have authored America’s descent into sin were partially responsible for 9/11.

Many legislators continue to decry budget reductions to the Parks department, but also refuse to look at realistic alternatives.

This is my application to President Obama to be appointed his Education Czar thereby solving the massive problems in the nation’s public schools.  I will work without pay since I would not plan to have the job very long.  The public schools have been kicked around a great deal in recent years, and I plan to kick them even more. I contend that public education gets far more respect than it deserves. If taxpayers really knew what was going on in most classrooms they would storm the schools and tar and feather the teachers and staff.

Obama Leads The UN Gungrabber Pack! - Back in October of 2009, the US Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, publicly announced that the US WOULD support UN negotiations of an Arms Trade Treaty to regulate international gun trafficking. The Bush administration, you may remember, and, notably, former Permanent U.S. Representative to the United Nations, John Bolton, opposed negotiations of this treaty for years.
