Whale meat is the most carbon friendly meat to eat! Who knew?
Next we’ll hear that polar bear fur is the most carbon friendly clothing material!
Talk about your law of unintended consequences!

Talk about your law of unintended consequences!
Today, the UN Security Council voted to increase sanctions on Iran over their nuclear program and concern that it is being used to develop weapons. I thought the National Intelligence Agency said they weren’t a threat anymore?
Looks like another instance where Hillary voted to support President Bush, but was duped to do so! Or was she duped and then reduped?
“Smart” people fall into two categories. There are “smart” people who find answers to problems, find creative solutions and can navigate through the challenges and nuances of everyday life; these people are know to have “Common Sense.” There are also “smart” people who are able to recite text books verbatim but don’t have enough sense to wear a heavy coat when it’s 50 degrees below outside; these people are known as “Book Smart.” The latter of the two are running the National Climatic Data Center.

Something to think about….is it time to consider somekind of a mass intervention for these people? This looks like they’ve moved past messiah and have arrived at deity!
Hattip The American Mind
With this and this should we be forming a citizen committee to negotiate with the Mexican Army? I’m just sayin’……
This endorsement from the Dallas News makes me wonder why they even bother to endorse a Republican. I guess it’s so no one would think they are biased! (more…)
Like many of you, I’ve heard several reports about Michelle Obama’s comments at the Zanesville Day Nursery. Some of the more amazing and highly reported comments included ironically, her encouragement to give up hope and not pursue a lucrative job:
"Don’t go into corporate America. You know, become teachers. Work for the community. Be social workers. Be a nurse. Those are the careers that we need, and we’re encouraging our young people to do that. But if you make that choice, as we did, to move out of the money-making industry into the helping industry, then your salaries respond."
Michelle also spoke about the difficulties of living with the consequences of her choices:
Mrs. Obama complains about the lasting burden of student loans dating from her days at Princeton and Harvard Law School. She talks about people who end up taking years and years, until middle age, to pay off their debts. "The salaries don’t keep up with the cost of paying off the debt, so you’re in your 40s, still paying off your debt at a time when you have to save for your kids,"
Finally, Michelle tells us just how expensive it is to keep kids in extracurricular activities:
"I know we’re spending "” I added it up for the first time "” we spend between the two kids, on extracurriculars outside the classroom, we’re spending about $10,000 a year on piano and dance and sports supplements and so on and so forth,"
Michelle Obama’s economic views are the kind that have created the subprime mess: (more…)
OK, it may snow alot and be nasty cold for a few days out of the year, but we don’t have this kind of problem…
I just got back from my BPOU convention and I’ve got some news….if you can keep a secret. For those of you who don’t know, BPOU stands for Basic Political Organization Unit. Depending upon where you’re at, the BPOU may be as large as a county or may be aligned to Minnesota House District. My BPOU is for the entire county and 2 House districts are represented in it.
Our BPOU is fortunate. Our House and Senate representatives are strong conservatives. As a result, each of our endorsements came on the first ballot and were just shy of unanimous (even a strong conservative will find someone who thinks they aren’t ALL conservative ALL the time!)
We went through proposed plank ammendments approving many and setting aside a few that were too specific or appeared already covered in the existing platform planks.
Sounds pretty straight forward and boring right?
So what’s the secret? Promise you can keep it?
The secret is…….
Based on what I saw today, the overreaching by Democrats at the State level, where they passed and overrode a veto of the largest tax increase in Minnesota history and brought us a nearly $1B budget deficit, has energized Minnesota Republicans like never I’ve seen before. As a result, in November, we will see a Republican turnout that in the future will be spoken of in the same reverent braggadocio as used by those who have lived through the record setting snows in Wisconsin i.e. “Yes, I lived through the winter of ’07’08” or “I was a part of the largest Republican turnout in Minnesota history!”
The secret is, that thanks to Minnesota Democrats, Minnesota is solidly in play for the Presidential election and I believe John McCain will win Minnesota.
