Stupid Conservatives

Apparently, some conservatives are actually planning to vote for Oh-Blah-Blah. Obviously, these people missed watching him in action during a hearing about the Iraq War. On the panel were General Petraus and an official from the State Department. The man from the State Department mentioned that Iran is helping the insurgency with men and weapons. Oh-Blah-Blah said with alacrity "Don't you think you should tell the Iraqi government?" The idea of someone so stupid or so out of touch becoming president should scare any conservative, or intelligent liberal for that matter.

National Interests

"If we do not permit our members to act on a very enlarged view of things; we shall at length infallibly degrade our national representation into a confused and scuffling bustle of local agency."
Edmund Burke
1780 Guildhall Speech

Economic Recovery

"Those who have much, need much; and, on the contrary, those who limit their possessions to their natural needs, rather than to their excessive ambitions, need very little. "

Boethius
