Notable Quote: Necessity of Rule of Law to Freedom, John Locke
“Freedom of men under government is to have a standing rule to live by, common to every one of that society, and made by the legislative power erected in it; a liberty to follow my own will in all things, where the rule prescribes not: and not to be subject to the inconstant, uncertain, arbitrary …

How About a Cocktail Tax?
A social services advocacy group called New Futures recently promoted a study that suggested a cost recovery tax per drink on all cocktails in New Hampshire. They (or the study they promoted) claim that excessive drinking costs the state as much as 1.15 billion per year. The tax could/would, help offset those costs. New Hampshire …
Happy Roe v Wade!
In order to properly celebrate the 40th Anniversary of Roe v Wade, I offer the following: Below are famous genocides of the 20th century.

Keep Calm And Vote Hemingway
While attending the Hillsboro County last weekend, I was most amused to see this variation on the “Vote for Me” stickers, and thought I’d share it.

Blogline of the Day – on political hypocrites
“Contrary to the rant in response you’re anticipating, I’m not upset. I’m actually honored to do my part in that whole ‘shared sacrifice’ thing we keep hearing about from our benevolent ruling class. After all, who’s more qualified to talk about shared sacrifice than those who can vote themselves pay raises whenever they want, pass …
Drinkin’ his own booze
Back in my coal mining days in southern Appalachia, there was a saying folks had: “He’s drinkin’ his own booze” and it was not a compliment. In those days, good stuff could generally be defined as spirits that wouldn’t make you go blind and the way to tell was by putting a dibby dab in a …
