  1. Other textbooks for the children of the 21st century include:

    “Garfield Gets Feline Leukemia”

    “Daddy Drinks Because You Cry So Much”

    “Mommy and the Hen Party”

    “Uncle Bill Is Now Aunt Billie”

    “You Are Special – That’s Why We’re Sending You to Boarding School”

    “Mommy Had an Abortion, Because You Are Enough for Us.”

    “Daddy Has Two Daddies – And So Will You.”

    “Sharing is Wonderful, Just Like Liberalism Says.”

    “Johnny Is A Bad Man – He Owns a Gun.”

    “Let’s Drink Cocoa and Talk About Healthcare.”

    Sorry, folks, couldn’t resist. 😉 Any other suggestions?

  2. Off topic, but I thought it was worth sharing: the Evangelical Immigration Table, a group of conservative Evangelical Christians that supports amnesty for illegal immigrants, is being funded by arch-Marxist George Soros.

    So it looks like “Everybody has a price” is true, after all.

  6. Frankly, I’m starting to wonder if the American political process is basically a more cerebral version of pro-wrestling: two opponents fighting a pre-determined battle for the distraction of the ignorant. Meanwhile, those in the know enjoy unparalleled access to the behind-the-scenes workings of the spectacle, where even bitter enemies get along swimmingly. And then there are those who know it’s all a set-up, but they go along with the narrative for some other reason: they appreciate the stagecraft, they have an attachment to a specific wrestler, etc.

    Another thing that has been bugging me is the War on Terror. What have we accomplished? I know we say “to protect ourselves” and “to spread liberty,” but I can’t shake this suspicion that those were “official” stories. If we were attempting to get justice for American deaths, why did we stick around and set up governments, which conveniently elected leaders who seemed to be pro-American. Andrew Napolitano lost his show on Fox after he started questioning the war. And then there’s the revelation from Gen. Wesley Clark that it was decided that Iraq would be invaded 10 days after 9/11, long before they were suspected of a link to al-Qaeda. And Iraq was only one of seven countries that were to be invaded as part of a five year campaign, including Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, and Iran.

    If that’s true, it sounds to me like we were intending to use military invasions to install regimes friendly to the US. We tried- and failed- in Iraq, and failed miserably in Libya. And we were only stopped from getting involved in Syria because the American people and military personnel had no stomach for yet another Middle Eastern war, and because Putin stepped in while we were busy arguing.

    The thought that we spilled gallons of American blood and wasted millions of dollars of wealth to play the “democratic” version of the Soviet Union’s “invade and puppet” game leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

  9. There isn’t any natural gas or oil exploration up in New Hampshire, is there? I’ve been toying with the thought of moving up there as part of the Free State Project once I’m out of school. The thought of living with people who share my desire to say, “Get out of my life, government!” is pretty cool, and ties into some stuff I’ve been reading about living with like-minded people you can rely on if there’s a breakdown in public order.

  18. Beer? Did someone say “beer”? Does that offer apply to old guys too?

    Define “old.” If you are younger than the State of Israel, then you are not old! 😉
