He’s always a font of opinion and ideas, that one. I may not always agree but once again, he does bring up some that most of us would never have thought. That is pure Ian – always arriving at viewpoints that just come out of nowhere but still, after all these years, make my head hurt (this one, just a little).

Promoted from the Comments: Wag the Dog, Who’s Government is it, and Rich Men North of Richmond
I haven’t done one of these kinds of posts for a while, and while going through my emails on Sunday after being OoO (“Out Of The Office”) on Saturday, these caught my eye as they each spoke to the REAL threat to our “Democracy.”
Promoted from the Comments – “Do You Feel Safe at Home?”
Commenter Mike Remski left a humorous comment on my “I’m Agreeing With NH Senator Cindy Rosenwald (D-Nashua)?? Why, Yes I Am” post concerning personal privacy vs the State trying to hoover up data on Moms that had just given birth. Had nothing directly to do with the post’s topic – except for “other questions” that … Read more
Promoted from the Comments – A Contrarian View on “Call for Candidates: Run for School Board!”
Steve had put up a post a couple of days ago for the 603 Alliance’s School Board training to run for School Board positions: If you’re concerned about the decline in academic standards, the harm done by shutdowns and mandatory masking, and the politicization of our public schools, please consider running for School Board in … Read more
Promoted from the Comments – a Grab Bag. And More Moderating
I really like reading comments from you readers – witty, smart, and on point. I have to admit and apologize that I kinda fell down on reading and moderating the last couple of months, though. We had a volunteer that took over moderation for a number of months for me so I could write more, … Read more
Promoted from the Comments and Blogline of the Day – Finally, a “Supremicist” That the Right Can Use
A TWOFER! From Amil’s post “We No Longer Have a Country“, Commenter Jamie nails who really is the “invader” against our traditional and Normal American Society (emphasis mine): If the Democrats weren’t anti-Constitutional enough, now we have the “Woke Supremacists“. A most SPLENDID new category in my estimation! There is just SO much future usage … Read more
Promoted From Comments: “It Took Our Public School To Teach Us That Race Is Important = Racism.”
Aaron has a post labeled “Teaching White Supremacy: Part 1” that brings up what one Donald Yacavone has done in furthering the splintering of America’s motto of “E Pluribus Unum” (out of many, one) by inflaming race relations: “Yacavone lays out the arc of America’s white supremacy from the country’s inception and Revolutionary War years … Read more
Promoted from the Comments – Conservatives Need to Understand That Their Opposition Is Not Seeking Compromise, but Conquest
I really liked Michael Graham’s piece that says America can’t fix anything lately – and Kurt Schlichter’s (Notable Quote) amplifies it. As always, I’m scanning the comments to both see what the temperature of our readers is while looking for thoughtful remarks that make good points. Agent Liberty left such a comment here on Graham’s piece.
Promoted From The Comments – The Real Definition of “Equity”
Over at Mike Moffett’s post, Sports “Equity”, he talks about the recent decision by the US Soccer Federation to pay women players the same as the men even though the womens’ version of the game brings in FAR less money than the men.
Promoted from the Comments – Communists Do Forget about That “Scarcity” Thing, Don’t They?
There’s a good reason why the study of Economics is oft called the “science of scarcity” – resources are limited, and we don’t live in a Star Trek universe where a replicator can just create anything we want at any time (by working the energy to create mass (objects)).
Promoted from the Comments – Are creating City-States the way to go on splitting the Country?
(Image H/T: Unanimous AI) Both EdMosca and I commented on the same poll but from different aspects of it: Some Good News … More Americans Supporting Separating Into Two Countries Polling Numbers Favor Having an “Elected Monarch” …? However, it was one of the comments from his post that caught eye and I thought it … Read more
Promoted from the Comments – Just like Anyone Else, Bureaucracies Act On Self-Interest
Too often, Capitalism is portrayed by the Left as being a selfish economic philosophy. Greed figures heavily into their diatribes as well. After all, if Socialism and Communism is your goal, why would anyone want to tell the truth about the system you want destroyed?
Promoted From the Comments- The Left Has Ruined Formerly Trusted Institutions
The Left has ruined formerly trusted institutions and where there is no Trust, there is no Society. From Steve’s post “WashPo – By the Way, That Story We Wrote About Trump Was a Lie“, Commenter Bryan W wrote:
