America’s Sexiest Slug
Thursday, November 19, 2009 23:42 6 CommentsI must not be representative of the typical American woman. ‘Cuz I just don’t get it. When Hollywood molded men into girly men to make them “attractive” and “sexy,” I must’ve missed the orientation session (or the magic pill). The decrepit Johnny Depp was once again voted the “Sexiest Man Alive” (is he wearing eye [...]
Secrecy and the Federal Reserve
Thursday, November 19, 2009 22:58 3 CommentsRon Paul’s Audit the Fed bill makes the pages of the Financial Times, and the article even discusses Paul’s ultimate goal of ending the Fed.

Austrian-Libertarian Event in Minneapolis
Wednesday, November 18, 2009 8:33 No CommentsHere is the announcement for the event this weekend in Minneapolis. I am not speaking, except on the panel. I’m doing enough of these things lately, and plus, I am so swamped that I don’t have time for even one more “task” in my life. Poor me! This event will be held in fabulous Midtown, [...]

Crooked Cops Shooting Fish in a Barrel
Saturday, November 14, 2009 20:19 5 CommentsHere’s an article in the Detroit News (Part 1) that investigates how police departments in the metro Detroit area use property seizures to cover their costs and line their pockets. Generally, the victims are poor people with few resources and no power to fight the system. And the thieves aren’t shy about bragging that the [...]
CDC Turns Up the Fearmongering
Saturday, November 14, 2009 19:40 4 CommentsIn late October, the CDC reported approximately 1,000 deaths from the swine flu in the U.S. Two weeks later, the number is 4,000. That’s because the original count included only laboratory confirmed cases, while the new numbers include estimates from epidemiologists. Apparently, people aren’t dying in large enough numbers as the government bureaucrats had hoped. [...]
Meep You
Saturday, November 14, 2009 19:09 6 CommentsAccording to Urban Dictionary (now there’s a reference source you can trust!), “meep” is the most versatile word in the English language. Apparently, “meep” is the trademark of Beaker from “The Muppet Show.” At Danvers High School in Massachusetts, meep means so much more while actually meaning nothing at all.

Ron Paul’s Supporters
Wednesday, November 11, 2009 7:01 12 CommentsCome to terms with your “whiteness?” What the hell does that mean? VDare runs another goofy piece. I still don’t understand the point. Ok, so Ron Paul made statements about the diversity of his supporters, and so the author posts photos of a Salt Lake City rally to make the point that all thirty people [...]
