I've done a courtesy search for the term Down Under for you. See if you can find what you're looking for in the list below:

• Loose Lips

  About 2 weeks ago I read a scathing article in the WSJ, penned by a recently retired former ST6 Navy Seal, who was more then critical of the Obama administration and his megaphone style handling of ST6 and their recent exploits. As background he admitted that he was retired before the OBL cacking, he had been on a number of similar high profile missions. The gist of the article was that Obama, his staff, and … Read more

• F_CK WHO?

  A lot of responsibility, being avant garde, cutting edge, and just too damn sexy for your shirt. Being a pop star now days not only involves the requisite provocations, can’t let your talent stand on it’s own, but certain signed documents are necessary stating that if you are going to be a dick or a buffoon, open up your wallet:

  M.I.A.’s Super Bowl middle finger could potentially cost her in a big way. TMZ

• Question the motives…

  Janet Delay has an article in the Telegraph, one that greatly mirrors my thinking on the subject, where she asks “why the lessons of communism and its fall have not been learned“. Seriously, why so many people still believe that there are “other” systems that are better and fairer than capitalism, after communism proved without a doubt how command economies – any economy driven by government for that matter – are abysmal failures, … Read more

• Thoughts On Personal Responsibilty

  Anybody that has ever held a job involving high risk, danger/peril or a stewardship involving the safety of others understands the concept of liability, the simple fact that with that duty comes a responsibility to act reasonable and prudent, and when venturing beyond those parameters, the repercussions can be great. A soldier falls asleep on guard duty and his company is over run by the enemy, an airline pilot reports to work drunk off his … Read more

• Boy, Do I Feel Safe

  More hi jinks are a foot at our local airports, and these I can’t blame on TSA. We all know about the zero common sense tolerance approach that Homeland Security takes in keeping us safe from those olive complected terrorists, keeping one step ahead of the jihadists is no small feat, so when John and Yoko decided to come pay us a visit, they got the welcome wagon is spades, God save the queen:… Read more

• Why Bill Maher Is A Horse’s Ass

  Because he’ll take a seemingly legitimate point and drop into a vat of stupidity. Here’s the clip everyone is talking about:

  Buried within that stupidity is a legitimate point that the Republican leadership and a large part of the punditsphere are campaigning against a partially imaginary candidate. I’ve pointed out before that the “apology tour” stuff was bull and that Obamacare, bad as it is, was hatched in conservative circles and is to the right … Read more

• They Hate Poor People, Don’t They?

  A gem from my favorite writer that has a special resonance in this economy:

  The elites who denounce poverty despise the poor. Their every high-minded, right-thinking “poverty program” proves this detestation — from the bulldozing of vibrant tenement communities to the drug law policing policies that send poor kids to prison and rich kids to rehab to the humiliation of food stamps and free school lunches to the loathsome inner-city public schools where those free

• Class warriors think they have a new angle, but it is a big fail

  This morning I was watching some post SOTU interviews to catch up on the reactions to the speech. I turned off the TV before the speech ended, because there is just so much bullshit I can take in one sitting, and went to bed, a more productive use of my time, by far. So there they had a panel discussing the aftermath, and on it was with some lady from some institute for progressive something … Read more

• More “green” magic!

  Check green this nonsense out:

  Oil companies will pay $6.8 million in fines for not meeting federal quotas for blending in cellulosic biofuels – those produced from grasses, wood and plants – even though there weren’t enough of those biofuels available for use, the New York Times reported. Those fines are likely to rise in 2012 because the cellulosic biofuel quotas that refiners have to meet will rise more than 30 percent to 8.65 million

• Obligatory Newt Debate Post

  I have already seen many, many people, mostly on the left, in the media, but not limited to them only, complain about how unfair they find it that people reacted positively to Newt Gingrich slapping down the CNN reporter that started last nights Carolina Republican debate with the question about an interview done with Newt’s disgruntled ex-wife that was done by ABC, very likely to be aired post Carolina primary to function as a hit … Read more
