Share Button

No, this is not about the David Brock progressive slant machine. Yesterday, I documentsed the FAIL of the dead tree edition of the New York Times to cover the Scott Brown Election.

So this morning the Sonic-Mate and I went to Starbucks to get a hot coco, and, as I usually do when there, I take a peak at the two newspapers they sell at the counter, the Fresno Bee and the “paper of record”, The New York Times.. The Bee’s front page, which is dedicated to […]

Economic Illiteracy / Stupidity – Worst Line From Obama’s Coakley Rally

Share Button

Ann Althouse dissects the Presidents speech from yesterday. Here is a line said by Obama that interested me. Now, we’ve recovered most of your money already, but I don’t think “most of your money” is good enough. We want all our money back. We’re going to collect every dime. (Applause.)

Attorney General Martha Coakley, prosecuted two guys working for Cartoon Network for placing a bunch of home made light-bites displaying this image throughout the Boston area. The two guys were pulling a gag to promote the upcoming Aquateen Hunger Force Movie. These lighted placards were placed in […]

Question: “Hey Democrats, why don’t I get a special tax break to buy me off on approving the useless health care bill?”. Answer: “You’re not in a union you idiot!”. Yep, the Democrats  cut the unions and government workers a sweetheart deal to get them on board the Health Care Reform train – Tax breaks […]

A Novel Excuse For Poor Government

It’s the computers! Uhm, It’s not the computers guys. I’m typing on a computer that is 7 years old. It runs XP and several versions of linux. It also runs quickbooks 2000 for my business. The problem the government has is NOT a hardware OR software problem. It’s what we call in the tech industry […]
