On “Responsible” gun ownership
I think that every gun owner should be responsible for everything done with a gun for the life of the gun, not just while it’s physically in their possession. I support gun ownership as long as it includes ballistic fingerprinting from the factory and title/registration like you would a car. If you fail to transfer [...]
The queen was right…
“It is clear to me now that the Republic no longer functions.” -Padme Amidala It amazes me when I watch congress from my vantage point, (a sub-basement office on capitol hill – not much of a view) how badly this experiment called democracy seems to have failed. 541 total members of congress, (535 voting [...]
Are you voting? (A wordless Wednesday post)
Um… Hell yes I’m voting.
Why I’m voting Republican…
And really, I’m just kidding, I’d rather be castrated with a pair of rusty nail-clippers than vote Republican in this day and age. And for more interesting entertainment (and to get the link into a post) go to http://www.spreadingsantorum.com.
Tell me all your thoughts on god..
Random though that runs through my head when I’m up too late: If I’m given “free-will” as a gift by god, what gives the “religious right” the idea that they are allowed to take that away?

A 2 year old is dead…and I blame the 2nd amendment..
LA Police: Boy, 9, Shoots, Kills Toddler Brother Obviously the US loves its guns more than its children. The NRA has created a culture of fear that leads people to believe that guns are the only thing keeping them safe from their neighbours, their government, the Russians and the king. The American people, who could [...]
To the Republicans:
STFU: You do *NOT* get to simultaneously bitch about big government and then complain about how little they’re doing for you. Pick a side. If you tax-starve the government, they aren’t able to respond to things like the BP Oil Spill. Our government is *STILL* getting over Bush’s 8 years of famine. The fact that [...]
Virginia Morons… #HCR
Ok, On January 13, 2010, the IDIOTS in the virginia legislature passed the following amendment to the Code of Virginia as follows: § 38.2-3430.1:1. Health insurance coverage not required. No resident of this Commonwealth, regardless of whether he has or is eligible for health insurance coverage under any policy or program provided by or through [...]
A few bits about taxes and tax cuts for the #teabaggers
Overwhelmingly, republican leaning states receive more federal dollars than they spend. I’m waiting on more recent data, but the numbers from this 2005 report (Source: Taxfoundation.org) say it all. (FYI – taxfoundation.org is largely described as a fairly right-leaning think-tank, for what it’s worth.) First this bit: You are undermining the government of the country [...]
