Venezuela Isn’t Socialist, It’s Capitalist…Right Comrade?

Venezuela has a leftist-run profit-driven CAPITALIST economy. NOTHING to do with socialism (a society with NO ruling elite)! pic.twitter.com/za1PzepTEv — The Socialist Party (@OfficialSPGB) September 27, 2016 Funny how Socialist countries always become something other than Socialist when the poison of its policies rots a society. It’s never really socialism, is it, not according to … Read more

College kids – too fragile to handle a Presidential debate?

Sheesh.  Hofstra is all over themselves for being the only institute of higher learning that has hosted a Prez debate in the last three cycles.  You’d think that their students would be all set with all of the attention that comes with that.  But sadly (and scary), not even these “seasoned” students can stand on … Read more

And US frackers have done more for US foreign policy than Obama/Hillary “Smart Diplomacy”

by simply out-working and out-innovating everyone else: Few predicted that in the fall of 2014, when Saudi Arabia signaled that it wouldn’t curb its output to put a floor under crude prices. Oil pundits concluded that a brutal culling would force higher-cost players known as marginal producers—a group that includes shale drillers—out of the market. … Read more

Tweeting out the debate? Er, no. Two words: Glenn Reynolds

No, not happening.  Given what I’ve been seeing with Twitter kicking people off or restricting their tweets from going to their intended recipients, not going to bother any more.  Why should I give them free content and eyeball counts? The final straw was Twitter suspending Glenn Reynolds of Instapudit fame (and whom I use his … Read more

Not my job? It is if you are an elected Legislator!

(former) NH State Rep. Sandra Keans (R, now D): “I don’t try to justify anything by the Constitution, it’s not my job and I don’t want to do it”.

I was asked about that statement (reformatted, emphasis mine):

Your list seems to keep getting longer…I like the way you simply add on…

You quote a statement from Rochester NH’s State Representative and Rochester City Councilor Sandra Keans. You mention she has said “I don’t try to justify anything by the Constitution, it’s not my job, and I don’t want to do it.” If she was asked about this…she would defend herself by saying it’s someone else’s responsibility to pass judgment on Bills etc., through Legal Counsel…

Wouldn’t this make her type of statement true?  To confront her on this would seem to be useless…right? I suspect ALL would use the same justification as her…… Not my Job!

Here is my reply:

60 Seconds With Kimberly Morin

When it comes to gun rights, like most everything else, Democrat policy contradicts Democrat narratives. Kimberly Morin, reporting from the 31st Gun Rights Policy Conference in Tampa, Florida, explains it. Listen to Podcast #160 for the complete interview or watch for her segment later today.

No, I did Not Watch the Debate

gravity-falls

I don’t watch Debates. Boring. Pointless. Rigged, more or less. Little more than a platform from which to launch narratives against candidates who are not progressive enough.

I’m #NeverHillary so why should I waste quality time on blowhards (and the candidates they are tweaking) fishing for tomorrow’s headlines, and (this time around) October’s anti-Trump narratives? A few minutes online and anything new presents itself.

NH Democrats change dinner to honor a womanizer and accused rapist

nhdemsidiocy

Yesterday it was reported by NHPR that the New Hampshire Democrat Party has decided to change the name of their annual Jefferson-Jackson dinner. Apparently they decided to change the name due to controversy about slavery. But who did Democrats decide to honor instead? John F. Kennedy and Bill Clinton. A womanizer and a man accused by multiple women of sexual assault and accused at least once of actual rape.

Lester Holt

The Internet says Lester Holt was obviously biased. His reward is a suitable photoshop.

Books and bans and challenges

It’s Banned Books Week, according to the American Library Association. I’ll join the ALA in cheering for free expression and the right to read. Where I part ways with the ALA is where they equate banned books with challenged books. It gets my hackles up when I’m advised not to challenge things. Read more at … Read more

Scott Adams Switches Endorsement to Trump

trump-dilbertDilbert Creator Scott Adams switched his presidential candidate endorsement to Donald Trump. You can read the entire explanation here, but I happen to like the second one the best. It explains the inherent flaw in Democratic Socialism, by which they mean socialism.

Socialism (regardless of what name it is given) is a fancy way of saying all your stuff belongs to the state. You are incapable of earning anything on your own.  You are incapable of creating anything on your own. Therefore all wealth, property, or the labor expended to create it belongs to the state.

It explains the inherent flaw in Democratic Socialism, by which they mean the economic policies of the Democrat party, by which they mean socialism.
