Getting fired from FEE: “Anti-semitism”, a right-wing/conservative PC term that I do not accept as legitimate, has always been a pet PCism of mainstream/lefty and Beltway libertarians. See the summary of what got Larry White, Robert Batemarco, and Robert Higgs fired from FEE back in the mid-90s.

The Stock Market and Predictive Abilities: In the 1930s, Dr. Ralph Elliott developed his Elliott Wave Principle, based on observations he made of stock market prices (Dow Jones, I assume) over a period of years.

What Jesus Would Drive: From Bob Wallace – fellow LewRockwell.com writer – who culled these from various FreeRepublic.com posts: * One theory is that Jesus would tool around in an old Plymouth because “the Bible says God drove Adam and Eve out of the Garden of Eden in a Fury.” * But in Psalm 83, [...]

Neocon Hall of Shame: Hey, I ran across a cheesy website – www.neoconservatism.com. It even has a neocon Hall of Shame. Note that its Alexa ranking is 3,500,000 and then some.

The Glories of Hate Mail: Not much to say today, so I’ll post something that I found both pathetic and amusing. People invariably put me onto their distribution lists, and good or bad, I just don’t have the time to sift through most of it, let alone read it. I can get dozens of these [...]

Suburbanite Soccer Moms in Ford Explorers Kill Bangladeshis: This has got to be one of the most hysterical letters I have ever seen – from Carl Pope, the Executive Director of the Sierra Club.

The Wisdom of Erasmus: “Let us now imagine we hear a soldier, among these fighting Christians, saying the Lord’s prayer. “Our Father” says he; O hardened wretch! can you call him father when you are just going to cut your brother’s throat? “Hallowed be thy name” how can the name of God be more impiously [...]

Waaaa! Don’t Call Me a Neocon!: Or so says Carol Devine-Molin. Devine-Molin, writing at Etherzone.com, lists out her “Reaganite” worldviews as such: “In fact, many of us still continue to refer to ourselves as “Reaganites” and hold the same political ideals that include: a) cutting marginal tax rates that unleashes a stimulative effect upon the [...]
