Stem Cells and Government Health Care

Obama’s been caught lying again. WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama, seeking to make a case for health-insurance regulation, told a poignant story to a joint session of Congress last week. An Illinois man getting chemotherapy was dropped from his insurance plan when his insurer discovered an unreported gallstone the patient hadn’t known about. “They delayed [...]

Obama Everwhere but Fox

Apparently Obama’s going to go on all the Sunday morning talk shows… except the one on Fox. Chris Wallace, who has been around Washington for years on different networks, talked to O’Reilly about it, and some interesting facts came out. HT: Patterico

Filming & Slitting our Own Throats

Things like this really get my goat. Filming on conservation land is becoming so difficult that some parts of The Lord of Rings movies would not be able to be filmed if they were being made today, Film New Zealand chairman Julian Grimmond says.Speaking at the Inland Otago Conservation Awards this week, Mr Grimmond said [...]

Inglorious Bastards – Avoid at all costs

I saw Inglorious Bastards recently. It was not the worst movie I’ve ever seen, that dishonor would go to the random and totally bizarre Southland Tales, which I taped one night, watched about an hour and after seeing a dozen plot threads that never seemed related to each other much less explained, turning off the [...]

Jimmy Carter Doth Protest too Much

After calling Obama’s opponents racists, not once but twice, bloggers have uncovered some questionable comments from the man himself. Believe it or not, this does suprise me. I’d have thought a man from the south in the public eye would know far better than to refer to Obama as a “black boy”.

Wanganui – lend me your ‘H’s

Ok, the decision has come out and we need to find a spare H for Wanganui I’m gonna reserve the name, just in case

Brownlee vs. Turei

Interesting how het up the left get. Question time today started with Metiria Turei hauling Gerry Brownlee over the coals over his desire to dig up the conservation estate. She has just asked a detailed question about the relative value of minerals versus conservation. In response, Brownlee said… nothing. He did not even rise to [...]

Death Penalty

Honestly, if I read more left-wing blogs I’d never get any work done. I saw this nasty little post on No Right Turn the other day and it occurred to me that the Weatherston case is a great example of a vicious murder who could be executed without any moral qualms of innocence. The Sensible [...]

What? You want common sense from the enviromental movement?

Several commentators have pointed out the stupidity of the protest action yesterday. All I have to say is, since when did enviromenal protests have to make any sense? These protests are about getting on TV, and creating mischief. Rarely do they actually address the real issue, and can even cause issues where none existed before [...]

Sad But True – Most people who don’t like Obama aren’t racist but are called that anyway

Photo from Patterico. Liberty Scott pulls no punches. So it is, naturally, more complicated than Carter says. I’ve been strongly opposed to Obama, not because of race – indeed his election was a positive sign about the state of racism in the US – but because of his policies. Discussion about his policies and philosophy [...]
