A Response To “‘Don’t Ask’ Policy Draws to a Close”

Bully for you. I did the same with my Dad but that wasn't the question. We're talking about homosexuals making a resume an issue of themselves. There is a double standard in place. Homosexuals i.e. hardworking, tax paying Americans are asking, in the land where church and state are seperate, for equal protection under the law. Read More

My View On “Fire Proves Formidable in Watery Wilderness”

Having lived in MN for 16 years, we visited the BWCA many times. It was our favorite area, by far. That said, it mystifies me how such a large fire could actually exist in that area. We here in CO are painfully aware of dry forests, lightening, and what a bad mix the two are. However, the BWCA is, very much unlike CO forests, Read More

An Opinion On “America Held Hostage: Day 610″

The continued characterization of the income tax brackets tax as a extracting money from the rich is purposefully misleading. As a practicing CPA, I can assure you that the rich do not pay much in the way of income tax nor need to. Being rich is nice in that regard. Try getting there by working hard after paying income taxes Read More

Criticism On “Paul’s Positions Play Well in Iowa”

In 1981 Congressman Paul voted against condemnation of Israel for attacking the Iraqi Osirak nuclear reactor and stood up for Israel�s right for sovereignty. DOWN GOES FRAZIER!!!!!! DOWN GOES FRAZIER!!!!!! So RON PAUL SUPPORTS MILITARY ACTION BY ISRAEL against a foreign country and he's an anti-semite?????? I DON'T Read More

Criticism On “Robert F. Kennedy: Nantucket’s Wind Power Rip”

It's SO NOT inexpensive. When you decide to educate yourself on the external costs of natural gas, you will understand that the price consumers pay to their utility company is a fraction of the cost they pay in terms of related (and undocumented) heart and lung disease, the extreme weather that is now becoming commonplace, the Read More

My Analysis On “Steve Jobs’ Commencement Address at Stanford University”

I agree that the point of the speech might be overlooked. He isn't saying that if you follow your passion you will live a life like his. His destiny was how to live a fulfilling life be a great CEO and tech visionary, so that was the result of his love and passion. I couldn't agree more with him that you may be wealthy and successful, Read More

My View On “William McGurn: The Pope and the Condom”

How, may I ask, did I miss the point, Kevin? Are you saying that my explanation of how I would react to contacting AIDS would be less effective language than someone who chose to use condoms? Can you show me the statistics revealing that condom use is more effective against AIDS than abstinence before marriage, lifelong monogamy Read More

Some Thoughts On “Martin Feldstein: The Economy Is Worse Than You Think”

Susan I find lost money it interesting that you think that consumers have so much money. The evidence says otherwise. Just the other day there was another in a long line of reports about how inadequate retirement savings are in this country and the recent tanking of the stock market only makes it worse. People, like corporations, Read More

Criticism On “Wage Rules Benefiting Unions Draw Fire”

Prevailing wage law shows at once the profound difference between the left and right. The left views (collective) labor as an agent of social control and change agent, an apparatus for implementing ideology. That they actually do something of value to the taxpayer is merely an unintended consequences of that agent. Notice that Read More

My Take On “Joe Queenan’s Alarmed Look at Wedding DJs | Moving Targets”

The real underlying problem with wedding DJ's is a lack of talent. And it wouldn't be so bad if they even knew how untalented they really were... but they don't. Joe nailed it here. Guests are comparing the DJ's to being professional entertainers - and day in and day out they're falling short. Horribly, miserably, short. Sure, Read More
