Sarah Palin. Politics. NASCAR. What more could you want?

In looking at the results of this past Tuesday’s primary elections in assorted states, a few things are clear. To those who have ears to hear, as the Scripture says.

Just once, I wish the people who scream that Loving vs. Virginia…

… insist since the ruling stated marriage is a basic civil right of man, this means gay marriage in the eyes of the law must be automatically declared A-OK.

No. It. Does’t.

In 2006, the New York Court of Appeals rejected this assertion.

Politics And Sex And Stuff Like That

Nikki Haley, Christine O'Donnell and Liz Carter

Not to boast or anything, but lately I’m being followed by a trio of beautiful women.

Okay, truth. They’re all running for political office and doubtless have no idea whatsoever I exist. And the only place they’re following me is on Twitter. But hey.

Setting the silly aside, the role of . . . → Read More: Politics And Sex And Stuff Like That

The Thatcher Revolution

Margaret Thatcher with her protégés Nikki Haley and Sarah Palin

Sister Toldjah, one of the better political bloggers, made a comment on Twitter this morning:

California’s Slow Motion Political Suicide

It’s oft been said that only Christians kill their wounded. Running somewhat parallel to this is the truism, regardless of whether it’s regarded as such, that only in politics do participants set themselves on fire and proclaim it a case of shining light on the situation. Such is presently the case in California. At least as . . . → Read More: California’s Slow Motion Political Suicide

Some Insurance Talk, If You Don’t Mind

Nothing major; just the latest post at my company blog. Good info, though.

 

A couple of recent news items highlight the relationship between insurance and government. No, it’s not all railing by posturing politicians against the evil soulless corporate machine, although there have been times recently when it’s sure seemed that way.

A More Complete Response To ObamaCare

So, as I sit here wondering what my employer is going to do about my health care plan; wondering if I can keep my current doctor or if he’ll pack it in and retire; wondering if I’ll be able to get the prescriptions I need; wondering how this is going to affect my family… lots of . . . → Read More: A More Complete Response To ObamaCare

If I Could Change Your Mind

The Alan Parsons Project was an anomaly in pop music, namely a band without a public face. There was some name association with Parsons, who came to acclaim through a bit of an odd route: he was the engineer for Pink Floyd’s Dark Side Of The Moon. Together with the late Eric Woolfson, who wrote the . . . → Read More: If I Could Change Your Mind

Random Tuesday Morning Ramblings

The FCC announced yesterday its plan to offer greatly enhanced Internet access across the United States, with speeds up to twenty-five times faster than currently available. This news is being widely hailed in the business world, as it means far greater efficiency of, and less chance of being caught while, downloading porn.
