• 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

• I’d Rather Have A Nobel

  Meet Time Magazine’s person of the year:

  

  For you memorabilia hunters,that poop he deposited is now available on Ebay.

  OK, it was a shared award, this guy is also being honored.

  Time loves symbolism, and still thinks of itself as edgy, so anyone or anything that can be portrayed as “sticking it to the man”, gets special consideration:

  “The Protester” has been named Time’s “Person of the Year” for 2011.

  The news magazine cited dissent

• Turkeys and Drumsticks 2011

  For four years running, I have taken advantage of the Thanksgiving Holiday to give out my awards for Turkey of the Year and Golden Drumsticks. The latter are for those who exemplify the best traits in our public sphere. The former are for those who exemplify silliness and stupidity. I rarely give them out to someone who is evil; they are reserved for those who regularly makes me shake my head and wonder what they’re … Read more

• Insiders

  Are you angry at Congress? Get angrier, my friends:

  Peter Schweizer is a fellow at the Hoover Institution, a conservative think tank at Stanford University. A year ago he began working on a book about soft corruption in Washington with a team of eight student researchers, who reviewed financial disclosure records. It became a jumping off point for our own story, and we have independently verified the material we’ve used.

  Schweizer says he wanted

• That’s because they get it Part Deux.

  Manwhore issued me an infantile challenge to put up a post about education. I took some of his request and am writing about the value of an education vs. the cost to get it, and to make the point that there are no job guarantees. While doing the research, I came across a timely and telling story, in the NYT of all places, dealing with the fact, despite the NYT blatant attempt to spin this … Read more

• Jobs program in Venezuela!

  It seems like even utpian collectivist paradises where verything is owned by the people and for the people and the wealthy are considered a necessary evil to be fleeced, has jobs problems. But some people are not content to just protest a government that actually will come after you for doing that, and have come up with their own way of making money. I am not encouragin OWS types to think this is an … Read more

• Under President Obama & the democrats….

  WaPo points out that data gathered shows that Wall Street firms — independent companies and the securities-trading arms of banks — have earned more in the first 2 1/2 years of the Obama administration than they did during the eight years of the George W. Bush administration. Why is this happening?

  Behind this turnaround, in significant measure, are government policies that helped the financial sector avert collapse and then gave financial firms huge benefits

• Making Indolence Profitable

  The good news is that it appears all that yammering done by the OWS crowd on the evils of capitalism, is just that, yammering, and when the rubber meets the road, they understand the value a buck as much anybody, whew, I was worried there for a while.

  The 99%, no, not this guy:

  

  but those Che wearing Mao quoting souls actually braving the elements (hey, it beats working for a living), have come up … Read more

• Disclosure, With A Kicker

  The system is broke, no doubt about it. Many of the OWS crowd believe that it is broke beyond repair. I think it is repairable, nothing that some honesty and integrity in our leaders would not fix. But here’s the rub, much like Abraham bargaining with God over the fate of Sodom, where finding only 10 righteous men would have saved the city, finding leaders, anywhere with honor and integrity is proving difficult.

  We all … Read more

• Remember what I was talking about?

  I am referring to the conversation I had in the comment section of one or more of our OWS posts here about who we really need to be angry at and blame for our current disastrous situation. When I pointed out that these OWS people where barking at the wrong people and that they and most Americans needed to understand who the real culprits and enablers in this mess are, because they where basically asking … Read more
