The jury’s decision not to execute Andrea Yates is a total lack of common sense and a betrayal of justice. Was she nuts when she drowned her five children in her bathtub? Probably, but so what? Is anyone in a “normal” frame of mind when the kill, murder, rape, or even rob? Not in my […]
Oh my gosh, what’ll we do now? Helicopter Ben must be stewing in his boots as he finds out what a mess Greenspan left him. Here in Colorado, one out of every 158 homes is in foreclosure, the worst in America. The rest of America sees one out of every 420 homes in foreclosure. The […]
The major nations of the world assembled in Rome to solve the Lebanon-Israel-Hezbollah situation. They all agreed that an immediate cease fire should take place. No, not quite. America and Israel decided that it was fine for the mad dog Israelite army and air force to continue to destroy Lebanon, shoot Red Cross vehicles, destroy […]
The poor Dow! It sits about exactly where it sat six years ago. Gold and silver, of course, are way up, even at today’s low prices. I wouldn’t own stocks if my long dead grandma came back to life and told me to buy some. This includes mine shares too. I have had a lot […]
I will never change my mind about the utter hopelessness of the Israel situation. You Biblical scholars know, as do I, that Israel was there first, but being practical, so what? The Indians were in America first, and the Aborigines were in Australia first. Interpreting Biblical history and prophecy is opinion, and varies from religion […]
That’s an interesting subject, isn’t it? Just about every consumer item we wear or use, be it TV, shoes, clothing, or parts of all sorts, are made in China. We have a huge trade deficit with China. So why have all the jobs gone to China? Perhaps a better question might be, why is everything […]
I remember the “Neutrality Act of 1937” from many many years ago, but before I wrote about it, thought I’d better find out more. So I did. It was passed during the Presidency of FDR, perhaps the worst President America has ever had, (Lincoln, LBJ?) so I wasn’t surprised to find out that the Act […]
Ten years ago, TWA Flight 800, bound for Paris, was accidentally shot down by the US Navy, who was practicing war games off of Fire Island, New York. Over 700 people saw the rocket go up and strike the plane, which broke in two and crashed in flames into the water, killing over 200. A […]
I am terrified at what is going on between Israel and Lebanon and Palestine. When someone kidnaps a couple of soldiers, is this a reason to bomb TV stations and airports? Suppose a bunch of bearded Muslims landed in say Kansas or Rhode Island or Colorado, and said “Everyone out. We are authorized by the […]
You remember the old song, don’t you? “Foot bone connected to the ankle bone, ankle bone connected to the leg bone, leg bone connected to the thigh bone ” etc. Goes all the way to the top, or from the top down maybe. It’s been a long time since I heard that song, but the point […]
