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

• Romney the Bully

  Ladies and gentlemen, your nontroversy of the week is the report that Mitt Romney bullied a kid in high school:

  There was no Facebook, Twitter, YouTube or sexting when several fellow students at a posh Detroit-area prep school say 18-year-old Romney led a boy posse to hold down one among them perceived as different and snip off his bleached blond hair.

  The victim, John Lauber, is dead now, but The Washington Post reported when it

• Vote Obama or lose your craddle to grave nanny state!

  That’s the message you get if you have the fortitude to sit through this ridiculous collectivist campaign piece titled “The life of Julia” that Team Obama is banking on to remind the people that vote for a living who gives them their government cheese. The message is clear. Without democrats and the largesse their government programs produce, this woman conveniently named Julia and her son, whom also is conveniently given a Christian name, Zachary, would … Read more

• Best argument…

  About why what the left has been doing to us for the last century, whether you think it was meant to do good or not, is wrong, was made by Glenn H. Reynolds, he of Instapundit fame, here:

  The Constitution of the United States was supposed to create a federal government limited to the comparatively few powers specifically enumerated therein, mostly in Article I, Section 8. The idea was that the federal government would

• The Trayvon Martin case revisited – Part 2

  One of the commenters posting on my previous Zimmerman – Martin shooting aftermath post had this comment to make:

  Zimmerman’s injuries do not automatically exonerate him of any wrong-doing, and by pursuing Martin for zero justifiable reasons,

  Oh, how wrong did the poster get this, and I am talking big-time wrong. Granted, if you got your facts only from the LSM you would believe that Zimmerman was told to stand down by the authorities, disobeyed … Read more

• I’m A Hotspot

  So one piece of news that has generated much discussion came out of the South by Southwest festival in Austin. BBH hired several homeless men to act as walking hot-spots. Naturally, this has provoked some reactions:

  Although this is ostensibly about giving the homeless money—BBH says they keep all the proceeds from those who pay for 4G access—it’s categorically awful, and all for the convenience of SXSW’s widely well-off patrons.

  But it gives the

• A Passing Grade

  Thinking with your dick is never a good idea, unless your dick is smarter then you. And rivaling that is thinking like a doe eyed 13 year old ,”But mom, we love each other”.

  A Modesto man, a teacher, old enough to know better has decided that his groin will now be calling the shots:

  Remember, these are the people your state has tasked with educating and influencing your kids:

  A California teacher quit his

• R.I.P., Buck Compton

  We expect much of our heroes, but living forever is not one of them:

  Lynn D. “Buck” Compton, an Army paratrooper whose World War II service was portrayed in the book and HBO miniseries “Band of Brothers” and who later as a prosecutor secured a conviction for Robert F. Kennedy assassin Sirhan Sirhan, died Feb. 26 at his home in Burlington, Wash. He was 90.

  He had complications from a heart attack, said his daughter

• Persuasive

  A sure sign that the economy and life in general is not as bad as portrayed is the simple fact that people still find the time to complain about silly TV commercials. For my own self, and as a consumer, I understand the profit motive, the pull for my disposable income, the hook needed for my eyeballs. Capitalism is a cut throat business, a process whereby a Clausewitz style approach is adopted, total war on … Read more

• Flagging Fools

  Years ago Jim Croce had a not so bad song with lyrics of:

  You don’t tug on Superman’s cape
  You don’t spit into the wind
  You don’t pull the mask off that old Lone Ranger
  And you don’t mess around with Jim, da do da do…

  Let’s add one more, no matter how dumb/drunk/cottled/young you are, you don’t go to your local VFW hall and burn their flag, what a goofball:

  A few facts on … Read more

• Useful Idiots

  Although Lenin gets credit (probably not deserved) for coining the phrase, the basic premise reveals mountains concerning the human condition. I always liked the phrase ,”The path to Hell is paved with good intentions”, another window which we can peer through, but to get seemingly good/honest people to do your bidding, to garner unwitting support for a malignant cause through charitable/peaceful acts, genius.

  The latest example of a truly useful idiot comes from Hollywood land, … Read more
