Modes Ponens In Full Effect

Interesting argument. Crazy - but interesting.

Good Old France

Everyone should have the bomb!

It Was A Themed Party OFF CAMPUS!

Why is this such a big deal? So kids dressed up like gangsta's at a themed party OFF CAMPUS. If it was held at the student center - maybe you got an argument - maybe. So white people cannot dress up like the gangsta's they see in music videos and movies? That is racist? So if a black guy dresses up as a cowboy - that is racist? I do not see why white people have to explain themselves for dressing up like this?
UPDATE-the students were being racist? - I guess I need to be educated. Glad the NAACP got involved. Super happy the college organized a forum for the students to apologize. All that was needed.

I Stand With This Student

This seems too far - even for liberals.

Another Arena For More Government

Thank you Mr. Republican for saving me from having to make the choice of what movies should say.

Is There Anything Global Warming Cannot Do

For everything that it causes - it should get a medal or something.

In the Name of Protecting Children

Don't talk Johnny - I want you to live.

San Fran Cracks Me Up

Poor small businesses.

I Refuse To Believe This Is True

Science is science - there is no room for bias.

What If This Was Opposite?

I wonder what the MSM reaction would be. I just want to say that I am okay with this. I think clubs/organizations should be able to choose who is allowed. Hence if a golf country club wants it to be all white and male - then it should be. I do not want to hear how the club is racist. A member of the black caucus should be the first one to the microphone in support of this golf club being exclusive.

I Wonder Who CNN Wants to be President

When did CNN get in the business of debunking news stories about politicians? By the way this was there top story when I found it on their website. TOP STORY!

I Agree With the Airline

They have to protect the safety of their crew and passengers on the plane - and a man wearing a T-Shirt that says Bush is the number one terrorist might frighten or anger other flyers. This may then cause an argument or fight on a plane, which the crew does not obviously want to deal with. Panic 35,000 feet in the air is a problem. All he had to do was turn the t-shirt inside out or put on something else. Freedom of speech is trumped when it comes to safety. Do you think an airline would allow someone shouting those comments on a plane - no - free speech does not mean you get to say what you want whenever you want. There is a time and place for everything.

The Power of People

-who can develop this technology and the people who will then use it to help fight crime. The human mind will not be denied.

Goverment Telling Parents How To Raise Their Kids

Once again - goverment thinks they know better than individuals. This bill is to protect children from parents who are stupid, becuase you must be an idiot if you smack your child. Talking is always the answer. This is just another example of those who feel morally superior believing their own personal views should be the views of everyone else and if parents do not want to obey well they can be arrested or fined. The best part if parents who are arrested will be required to take a class on parenting. And I am sure these morally superior people think they are doing California a great justice. I just see these people standing on some podium with their hands on their hips, red cape on, and hair blowing in the wind.

I Blame MySpace As Well

I would never think that the teenagers should take any responsibility in this. The girl was forced to go online, forced to set up an account on my space, forced to talk to some guy in a sexual manner, and forced to meet up with him. Damn you MySpace for making that happen. There are innocent teenagers out there that you are destroying.

9th Circuit Loves Terrorists

Do judges have to be crazy in order to get on the 9th Circuit in San Fran? I mean seriously - is crazy a prerequisite?

Anti-Smokers Saving Lives

This should just be left up to the person or persons who own the buildings. They can determine if tenants are able to smoke. If your building is smoke free, and you have a problem with that - move somewhere that permits it. Or vice versa. How is this hard? Bring on the health care argument. I am really getting tired of people telling others how they NEED to live their lives. There is a moral superiority thing going on here and I will write about that soon.

I Can Criticize Bush As Well

What is up with this? It seems to me these border agents stopped a drug smuggler on the border. They go to jail for 12 years. Now Bush pardons drug dealers, but not the guys who protect this country from illegal immigrant who deals drugs?
UPDATE - My Blog has much influence: Bush now says he will take a closer look at the case.

God Bless This Guy

Who has the courage to stand for something so unpopular and ask for an explanation from everyone who wants to pull out of Iraq on what they think will happen in the region if we leave.

This Should Work Out Great

Nationalization is always better than Privitization. Duhhhhhhhh
Has Chavez never read a history text book? Seriously.

What is Omaha Thinking?

My home town is now acting like my current town (Chicago). Big government protecting their citizens.

Big Government Isn't the Answer?

Surely you jest! I thought big goverment could always do a lot better of a job in any situation over local goverment and private companies. I mean their big goverment - that is what they do.

Terrorists Made Republicans Lose in 06

What does it say about Democrats when Al Queda wants to negotiate with them?

A Very Interesting Case

But - it seems to me that they should get that bullet.

Merry Christmas From SNL

Almost as funny as Lazy Sunday. For sure a close second.

I Thought Democrats Cared About Poor People

Sorry Bono - turns out politicians are politicians.

We Need to be More Human to the Homeless

The Las Vegas Mayor is all kinds of backwards.

Minimum Wage Hike Will Not Hurt Small Businesses or Consumers

It will be awesome for everyone.

Newsweek Wrote This Piece

Someone must be getting fired. How did this piece get through?
There are some very interesting stats in this article.

I Do Not Watch The NBA

The biggest reason why is that it is no longer a team sport. It has turned into one on one basketball. Leading to a bunch of cocky, arrogant, no displine, no respect for the game players that end up doing this crap. Players that take the fight too far - never should play again. Pushing and shoving and calling each other names is one thing. Throwing down is something different. Ahh memories.
UPDATE - This punishment should teach them their lesson.

2006 - The Year of Saving Fat People From Themselves

Seriously - this is getting out of control.

Would Jesus Shop at Wal Mart

Funniest thing I have seen in like 2 days.

Chicago Alderman Wants to Protect the Children

By forcing chain restaurants to post calorie contents. If you vote against this you do not care about children, and you hope they will get fat and die. You sick bastards.

More Money for Education

You go Democrats! They care about children way more than Republicans.
Wanting more goverment control over loans as well. Awesome! These are great ideas.

Racism is Everywhere

According to this study - 80% of white people are racist, they just do not recognize it.

Nice Choice Pelosi

Makes me feel safe.

Will Respecting Cultures Never End

Maybe I should not be shocked anymore - but it still annoys me.
Update - Christmas trees are back in the airport

American People Agree With the Iraq Report?

I do not know one person who has actually read that thing. To say American People agree with the report is absolutely crazy. Funnies part is the author states that 39% agree with report. Hence the others who disagree or did not know what it was are not Americans (for you steve).

Guess Who Columbia University Lets Speak

Ann Coulter - no way
Pat Buchanan - forget about it
Muslim woman who speaks out against extremists - nope
Iranian Ambassodor - speak whats on your mind

I Need To Get A Subscription

To the New York Post!

You Go Gore!

Why did I not vote for this guy?

Why I Have This Blog

Is to point out news like this. This is just another example of government organizations making choices for me. If I ran a restaurant - I should be able to choose if I use trans fat. I should be able to choose if I want to put the number of calories next to my menu items. Then it should be up to the customers if they want to eat at my restaurant knowing that I do or do not use trans fat or if I do or do not display calories next to my items. This law says people are too stupid to know what is good for them, and they need to be saved by the goverment. Individual's choices are becoming fewer and fewer and it really really frustrates me. Why do liberal cities like this think goverments are better at making decisions as opposed to individals? What happened to personal responsibility? If the goverment left this alone then restaurants may have switched over on their own (KFC). The market is a powerful force and if people decided on thier own to eat at places that dont use trans fat then more and more restaurants would make the switch. I wish the goverment would just leave people alone, and let us make our own choices.

Socialism Works Every Time

So Venezuela should be just fine. Nothing to worry about there. They have all the ingrediants for success (Chavez, Socialism, allied with Iran, Cuba). I respect that culture.

What Was It Like Before

Did Muslims not pray before at airports? Is there more Muslims in this country now? Did we just not notice them praying before 9/11 in airports? How did this happen where Muslims now want a private room in all airports to pray? If it is only a few who pray then they should probably do it before they come to the airport. I am glad some Muslims understand though that it could make people feel uncomfortable to see something out of the ordinary like that.
Update - 6 Muslims who were detained were looking to make a political statement?
Futher Update - Now they want money

Why Did This Get to the Supreme Court

I do not see how this got past the school board. It should have stopped right there.
I swear the 9th Court Circuit of Appeals is just nuts.

We Need to Talk to Iran

Collin Powell is right - we need to have open dialogue with Iran and Syria.
Why not - they have listened to us before.
Oh wait - no they havent. See - I do make fun of Republicans.

Go to School - Win a Car

Sounds logical.

Lies, Lies, Lies

Iran is our partner in peace. I read their presidents letter.
I refuse to believe this document.

Let the People Decide

If the people do not shop at the store then it will go out of business on its own. Goverment should not be able to decide if a business can operate. Yes, I understand that we elect the city councilmen to make choices for us.

Judicial Activism All Over The Place

Judge after judge.
Seriously - was it a national activist day that I did not know about.

Chicago - We Respect Cultures

We do not want to hurt one persons feelings ..... EVER!

Can We Find Out What Happened First

Rev Al says this needs to stop. What needs to stop? We do not know what happend yet. Can there be an investigation before we start accusing cops of wrongdoing.

Inconvenient Truth For the Kids

Happy Feet - an adorable movie with dancing penguins is actually about the evils of Global Warming. Parents I think should know about this before they take their children to the movie. Maybe some type of sentence on the bottom of the poster or statement at the end of the trailer.

This Statistic Scares Me

It does REALLY upset me when I see that the over half the women who get abortions have allready had one. It makes it seem like they use it as a form of contraception (which I am totally against). Now the article says these women SELF-REPORTED they used contraception but what else are they going to say. They do not want to sound dumb by saying - no I do not use contraception (it implies fault and people hate taking responsibility). Instead they say yes I used contraception and it was not my fault that I got pregnant - Just bad luck. Getting pregnant once and using all the contraception possibe = bad luck. More than once means your most likely not protecting yourself. Take the responsiblity of protectiong yourself (ie condoms, birth control, morning after pill, no sex).

College Republicans Want the Debate

And this is an excellent way to get it started.

Update - The response.

Israel Recognizes Gay Marriage

I still have not heard one good argument against gay marriage. The arguments I hear always come back to morals and we need to protect the family crap. I know it sounds cheesy but if you have parents that love you- who cares if they are gay or straight. They both should have the right.

Respect All Cultures

This lady is a proud Muslim and wants to talk about those who are insulting her faith by being too radical. Brown University says we cannot have you talk bad about another culture. We need to respect everyone- even terrorists. Good work Brown.

This LOCAL Law Makes No Sense

Take that Canadian Flag down right now! Or at least fly it below a U.S. flag.

Why Did I Leave?

Good Old Nebraska

Give Me A Break

The student refused to show his ID, refused to leave the library, and encouraged others to resist. The cops tasered him and of course the cops are the bad guys. Are you freaking kidding me. If he shows his ID then this never happens. Of course students do not feel safe now from the RACIST cops.
This writer (former cop) expresses views similiar to mine on situations like these.
By the way - What is the alternative? Do the cops forcefully drag him out of the library? Do they just let him go? Do they not do a routine check of ID's? Then the campus would be real safe right? It is so IRONIC becuase the students say they want to feel safe, and that is what the cops were trying to provide by doing ROUTINE ID checks.

A Moment of Silence Please

For a great man.

Silly Bill Gates

With his CRAZY anti-union ideas on education reform. Wow he is dumb.

Best Show on TV You Are Not Watching

And it just got renewed. I really enjoy this show which is not about football but instead about the town.

Unbreakable Much?

She took it like a champ. Her rap album will be dropping any time now.

Don't Run From the Cops

I have no concern for those who run from cops and resist arrest.
Cops cannot be nicey nice all the time when they deal with these punks.
Furthermore- I say if you do run - cops have the right to beat your ass down.

The Pledge of Allegiance

Is it such a big deal that the Student Council does not want to recognize it?
This PC stuff seems to be getting out of hand.

This is where Darwin steps in and says this is local goverment - you should be supporting it.
Which I of course respond - I like local goverment = does not mean I need to support all their decisions.

You Might Not Like Rap

But this is really impressive.

Studio 60 Renewed

Though this show is not as good as West Wing or Sports Night - I feel that it can be. Sorkin needs to pick up the pace of the show - many scenes are way to long with nothing happening.

Entire Campus Needs to Understand

Wonder what would happen if they did not attend?

Libertarians Playing Bigger Role in Election

According to Fox News - Libertarians might hurt the Republicans this time.
I personally cannot see Libertarians voting for Democrats just to teach a lesson.

A True Democracy

Chavez understands the process.
Meanwhile Rosales is motivating the people. (scroll down)
Looks like it may be working.

Office Space Redux

Thriller of the year

Just the Place for Big Government

Everything must be equal.

Your Leader of the Democratic Party

This guy speaks on behalf of Democrats. Yeah - really hard to see why Democrats do not have this election locked up.

Must Stop Fat People

NY Board of Health will end obesity if it is the last thing they do.

It Was A Halloween Party!

What is the problem here? Oh its at a liberal unviersity. I get it now.

Fans Have Right To Know

Barbara Streissand music fans should be made aware of the fact that there will be political statements made during her concert. Fans wanting to hear her sing pay upwards of $500 for a ticket. Many of her fans like the President and even if others agree with her message they might just want to hear her sing. I of course do not support this fans behavior- physical harm in uncalled for. Those who boo (which has happened at multiple shows) should have that right. Tell the fans what to expect and I have no issues- that way the fan has no one to blame but theirself.

Role Reversal

I have always liked Dave Letterman - and I have always not liked Bill O'Reilly.
After this past interview on Letterman my opinions are reversed.
Yes Letterman is funny and his show is great - but he has made unbelievably dumb comments when he talks with O'Reilly. Many have said Dave is just trying to be funny but I believe not.

Damn Bush and His Tax Cuts

Look at what this has done. Bastard

Can Someone Order Up Another Earth Please

It appears we need two.

Slow Down Internet

I wish he was my president.

Education is Underfunded!

Look at the money we are spending and what we used to spend.
By the way - test scores and graduation rates have not changed.

Local Companies Partner with Schools

I pitched a similiar program in my school counseling graduate course. I have an extensive proposal all typed up and ready to go.

Seems Hypocritical

This guy can speak his mind

But not this guy

Liberal colleges - Where freedom of speech is cool as long as you agree with what they believe in. And this not letting people speak is nothing new. Off the top of my head - Ann Coulter and Pat Buchanan have both been bood off the stage and pies have been thrown at them. When was the last time a conservative bood off the liberal and threw something at them. And liberals are considered the educated/smart ones.

Logical Answer to School Violence

Why did I not think of this before?

W.H.O. Truth

How can they just make up numbers like this and expect me to believe it?

Mandating Businesses to Install Cameras

This I do not understand. Making this a law and requiring businesses to pay for it themselves as well seems crazy to me.

More Evidence Against Crime Cameras

Not working so well in DC. But it does mention that it helped with one investigation. And if it helps put one murderer or kidnapper or child molester every now and then behind bars - isnt that worth it? I think it still might be. I am still not fully against them.

High Schools are Treating their Students Unfairly

Why am I supposed to feel bad for Johnny? Not every kid is supposed to be on the varsity squad. Not every student is cut out be on the team. That is why their is for fun leagues, and clubs to join. I never made it onto the varsity basketball team - (now that I think about it, that explains a lot). This goes back again to PROTECTING THE CHILDREN. We need to be careful not to hurt anyones self esteem. Think of the devasting effects. What we need to do is make sure every kid should get the chance to play on the varsity team. All the varsity players should get trophies and then they should all be taken by a top college and given a full ride - they should all play at least one game and then get drafted by the NFL. Seems logical when you think about it.
Also is school the only place these kids can excercise or join teams. There is not a local YMCA or something. Why is it always the schools job- when does personal responsibility come into play here?

Weird Al is back

White and Nerdy

Remember Choices

Those were the days. How about instead of mandating private businesses to use something they might not want to use- maybe businesses that think it is a good idea can put it on their menu as an OPTION.

Just a thought

Those Bastards

They really hate the working man.

Makes You Feel Warm and Fuzzy Inside

I can sleep well at night knowing that he is allied with Iran, Cuba, and North Korea.
We should just respect thier culture.

Pay The Poor

It is not with goverment money so go right ahead.

Funny or Not Funny

You decide

Chicago is Coming Back

See - if you get made fun of enough - things start to change.

And Daley pulls out the veto button for the first time in his 17 years as mayor. Then it holds up during the council's vote.

Makes me more proud of living in Chicago.

Wake Up Wall Mart

Stop being a business. Stop making so much money. Think of the children you are hurting. The working family is suffering damnit. WAKE UP WALL MART

Yes - Wall Mart is the one who needs to be woken up.

Good For Her

The power of individuals. Took the law in her own hands. Maybe some evidence for permitting hand held weapons.
Or should I feel sorry for the circumstances that MADE the mugger attack the older women. I probably should feel real bad for him now - with being shot an all. He did not deserve that.

When There is Nothing New to Report

Just start filling time with crazy shit!

I Love It!

I would never use it - but I support it.
