US Doctors rejecting Bureaucracy

Back when I started work, I learned a valuable lesson from my boss. My boss ran his department lean. He focused on the key deliverables, had minimal management, and kept a tight eye on costs. From that I learned one thing: if you keep your overhead costs low, you’ve already won much of the battle.…

What’s what with US Gun Control

If you don’t understand US gun control, you should read this. If you think you understand US gun control, and don’t understand why the senate voted down Obama’s bill, you should read this. This is by far the best, most comprehensive post I have ever read on the topic. And it’s written by a far-left…

Helping Obama’s brother

I’m inclined to discount this story somewhat (it just smells a bit too convenient), but there’s no denying that Obama has some curious priorities when it comes to whom he chooses to help. A few days ago I received a call from a man I recently met named George.  He was a bit flustered, and soon informed me…

John Adams

My wife and I have been watching the John Adams mini series which I’d been recording. Sadly I missed the first episode. Then I recalled something from some time ago… and sure enough, DPF had an old post on the series. The seven part John Adams miniseries has won 13 Emmies, a record for a miniseries.…

I’m a leftist, so it was a “peaceful” punch officier

Aaron Worthing at Patterico posts on violence in American politics. The fact is the left is neck deep in hypocrisy on this.  Besides Gladney and the other woman attacked at the Paul-Conway debate, every time the G8 meets anywhere, there are violent protests to say the least, and just the other day the GOP HQ…

Prop 8 legal nonsense – gee, what a surprise

Aaron Worthing at Patterico pulls some of the sillier aspects of the anti-Proposition 8 brief. (That’s the side that wants gay marriage) Shockingly, much of it is complete nonsense. I mean, a liberal cause relying on emotion not facts –  what are the chances? So do they?  Well, here once again they assure us that…

Job creation also bigger in Texas

Aaron Worthing at Patterico reports that half of all jobs created in the USA last year were created in Texas. Of course, they make sure to have a strong regulatory environment, supported unions, made sure the state had a good income from increased taxes, and generally made things hostile for businesses. Oh wait, that’s California.…

Revocation of USA Independence

Found this on the internet. I suspect it was written several years ago, but it certainly strikes a chord now! Especially like 12 & 14 🙂 ————————————————— A Message from John Cleese: To the citizens of the United States of America: In light of your failure in recent years to nominate competent candidates for President…

Miss USA does it again

Remember last year’s Miss USA contest? The one where a judge went onto his website to call a contestant a stupid b**** after she correctly answered his question, and the controversy that followed. Well, they’ve made a good start this year. So far: The first place getter is an Arab-American who called birth control a…

Yet another “right wing” attack that isn’t

A few months ago, a man by the name of James von Brunn attacked the Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C. In spite of a whole list of beliefs consistent with extreme left-wing politics, he was put down as evidence of growing “right wing” terror threat. NewsBusters highlights yet another instance of the US media putting a…
