If you ever had any doubts in your mind as to what we’re dealing with when it comes to environmentalists, all one has to do is look to Copenhagen. It’s a very telling scene out there, and one that anybody with an ounce of sanity running in their veins should stay very clear of. Why? Because what is happening in Copenhagen isn’t environmentalism. It isn’t even really about being green. What is happening in Copenhagen is a crusade of biblical proportions. Crusade: any vigorous, aggressive... Read Full Story

Environmentalism… Having been an outspoken prick when it comes to all things green for years now, I’m sure that there have been some question marks... Read Full Story

OK, listen up all you wussies out there. I know that we mistakingly bred an entire generation of candy ass sofities… And in turn they bred and created a generation of even softer pansies… But seriously, let’s get real here for a minute… If you all don’t start butching up a bit and suck it up and start living on the edge just a little bit, we’re lost.

To say that there is a little bit of swine flu fear mongering going on out there right now would be a glaring understatement, would it not? So it got me thinking… Are we to blame for this? What do I mean? Well, has our culturing and nuturing of the wussy society made us so soft that the flu now has the ability to kick us in the ass? I think so, but then again I’m biased… After all, not only did I not wash my hands as a child, I survived time aboard an aircraft carrier – perhaps one of the... Read Full Story

Oh. My. God. Has Ryan given up on politics? Well, in short, no. The problem is that politics raises my blood pressure, sends me into fits and generally drives me to want to hurt somebody. Yes, the current state of politics is sad at best, and lord knows we need all the help we can get… But the inane ramblings of one more pissed off libertarian in the blog world isn’t going to help matters. And yes, sadly I am pissed off and can no longer approach the topic of politics in any sort of a civil... Read Full Story

Not only because the author has a knack for being blunt with the truth, but because the truth hits the goon squad right between the eyes… `Possibly worst new car money can buy’ Our U.K columnist hates Insight’s CVT gearbox, and says Honda and the greenies get it all wrong - Jeremy Clarkson OXFORD, U.K.–Much has been written about the Insight, Honda’s new low-priced hybrid.

I accidentally happened upon the Huffington Post this morning. I say accidentally because I am usually so disgusted by the dredges that write there that I stay away in the name of good health. So when I clicked a headline that popped up in my Yahoo! news about why Annie Le’s killer shouldn’t have been arrested as a person of interest and was sent to Huffington, I was a bit shocked. Not surprised given the ludicrous content of the article, but I was torqued off to be on the site none-the-less... Read Full Story

It’s not that I don’t care about the state of things, but I am also realistic and know that talking to my “humble” representative will result in nothing but frustration since Dave Obey doesn’t care about anythign that doesn’t directly benefit Dave Obey.

Strong words from somebody who normally enjoys standing on the soap box in the middle of the town’s square. But really, my throat is starting to hurt and I’m... Read Full Story
