A Steaming Cup of Crap

November 27th, 2007 · 9 Comments

I was entertained this morning by another one of those “why Jesus wouldn’t deport illegal aliens” rants. This one is by a fellow named Joe Palmer (send him email) writing his “Cup of Joe” column for a little weekly publication called the Fernandina Beach News Leader.
I’ve been to Fernandina Beach quite a few times… nice [...]

Beware the New Puritans

November 21st, 2007 · 4 Comments

Our increasingly internecine problems can be broken into political essentials and reduced to two polar positions that share a common similarity of sin: Lust.

Pure Libertarians Need to Think a Little Deeper

September 11th, 2007 · 4 Comments

Every so often, I run across a blogger or columnist who has figured out most of what is necessary for us to end this nightmare invasion of the illegal aliens. I find myself nodding in agreement as I read through their analysis of the situation, but then, usually near the end of the piece, my [...]

The Abundance of Enthnocentric Asburdities

July 23rd, 2007 · 12 Comments

Yesterday morning I was thrilled (not really) to receive a snarky comment to a previous post regarding my contention that genetic studies regarding ability and intelligence should at the very least be on the table in any national discussion about immigration policy. Someone going by the name of “Dee,” the author of a blog called [...]

Trent Lott’s Trying To Slip Us A Roofie!

June 24th, 2007 · 7 Comments

I’ve been remiss of late in visiting and linking to Frosty Wooldridge’s website. He’s one of the few people to whom I can consistently defer on the issue of immigration reform. I consider him to be as authoritative as Michelle Malkin, FreedomFolks, Pat Buchanan, George Putnam, D.A. King, Tom Tancredo, the patriots [...]
