No Runny Eggs

The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

Ed Morrissey talks taxes at Defending the American Dream Summit

by @ 21:29. Filed under Defending the American Dream, Politics - National, Taxes.

Because of various technical issues, I was pretty much limited to covering the 2009 Defending the American Dream Summit on Twitter. However, I did get some not-quite-great-quality video of Ed Morrissey talking about the tax system and especially the ill-named HAPPY Act, which would create a tax deduction for pet expenses. He explains why both halves of the bipartisan Party-In-Government likes the current tax code.

I wish I had more, but those tech issues completely threw me off my game. However, Kyle Maichle picked up the slack.

Revisions/extensions (5:19 pm 10/5/2009) – Changed the link to the Hot Air post Ed put up. Thanks again, Ed.

Weekend hot read – R.S. McCain goes to Big Creek, Kentucky

I didn’t really follow the story of Bill Sparkman. Fortunately, Robert Stacy McCain took several days out of his life to try to find out what really happened in Big Creek, Kentucky about September 23rd.

Even though the first part of the series he worked up is 4,000 words, or perhaps because of it, I cannot do justice with an excerpt. You’re just going to have to go read the whole thing.

One housekeeping item – do hit his tip jar. If I can send some money his way, you can.
