Been busy making last-minute preparations for Vegas, but there’s a few things that need to be commented upon:
- The Milwaukee County Board thinks that not only is county government as a whole entitled to a 3.8% increase in property taxes, but they’re worth $52,704 if they survive 2008. Bravo Sierra, kids.
- Down go the school referenda. Bravo Zulu, West Bend and Hartford. (for those that can’t tell the difference between Sierra and Zulu, the former stinks)
- Fred Thompson stomped on the land mine that is the Human Life Amendment. While I appreciate Thompson’s committment to federalism, the fact of the matter is that ship sunk shortly after I was born. There are only two ways to reverse Roe v Wade; hope that 5 Justices don’t believe in precedent for precedent’s sake, or pass a federal Constitutional amendment.
- So the Paul-nuts raised themselves a pretty penny (actually 420,000,000 of them) yesterday. Go win the Libertarian Party nomination (oops; they’ve been exposed as losers for decades), or try to take over the DhimmiRAT Party as they’re in 100% agreement on your biggest issue (only problem is, Hiliary is still running things, and Fort Marcy Park is looking a little empty).
- Guess David Obey (Dhimm-No Talk Radio Here part of Wisconsin) has a very odd definition of success. The way I see it, if there are fewer and fewer Islamokazis stepping up to fight for the Worldwide Caliphate, we’re being successful.
- The TV writers are on strike. The good news; no new Letterman/Leno/et al. The bad; Season 7 of “24” isn’t completely in the can yet. Maybe they should hire the Jack Sack.
- Speaking of TV, I heard NBC is going Green. They should’ve completed the blackout of the studio, and shut off the mics as well.
- Gas prices are starting to match the oil futures price. “Thank” you, Plastic Pelosi, for pissing off the Turks, and “thank” you, envirowhackos, for 30 years of nothing positive done on the domestic supply side of the equation. If S(l)ick Willie hadn’t locked up the Utah coal for the Indonesians’ benefit, you’d get lumps of coal to go along with $4/gallon gas this Christmas. That’s right; $4/gallon gas before the end of the year.
