Give me an "A"!!!

I guess I'll root for Eli, so that his brother finally gets some good news this year.

If you have the time, I recommend watching Rabbi Daniel Lapin and Glenn Beck discuss Baal, past and present. (Five video clips) Lapin describes a spiritual gravity at work, so that if you're not making some effort to climb up toward God, you'll be sliding down into depravity. Lately, Americans have stopped their climbing, and they're letting that spiritual gravity drag them down into the swamp. Just watch what's on TV to see that process at work. Lapin says Baal is alive and well, represented today by the Secular Fundamentalists that seek to drive all traces of the Biblical God out of our culture. Their "sacraments" revolve around the material and the physical, because that's all they recognize, or hold dear.

Just for future reference, when Jews and Muslims have to subsidize my bacon affordability insurance, I prefer the thick Canadian style bacon. I'll pay my $1 copay, and get 3-lbs of sweet salty heaven. Yum!

What Communist-era Romanian orphanages did to infants is what the American government did to poor urban neighborhoods using our modern welfare system. They removed the moral education requirements and the close human interaction (provided before by churches and other private charitable organizations) and just left the porridge. So, you end up with kids who know how to eat porridge (collect checks) but they don't know how to act like civilized human beings. In many cases they don't even know that they're missing something intangible. They only know that they want more stuff...more porridge.

I think Romney promises last at least 3 or 4 years, before they expire, so I think we're okay for the first term.

Any help the US Government gives should be through a third party, a Muslim third party. And if there's no Muslim third party willing to help, well, shame on them.

The minimum wage is an obstacle to economic progress for young people, and for the undereducated, but so are video games, and we're not going to be able to get rid of those either. So, you do what you can now, while trying to change minds over time.

That's because women take trips with more stops and detours--trips more suited to the use of a private automobile. So, just use a private automobile. We don't ask, "how can we accommodate vegetarians by making steak knifes more like soup ladles?"

The best thing would be to get rid of it completely, so that the economic ladder has plenty of rungs near the bottom. But, that's not likely to happen.

So, if you index it to inflation, that should eliminate the need to keep going back and fiddling with it every two years, as Democrats would probably like to do. They'd like to increase a static minimum wage greatly above the rate of inflation every two years, and then dare Republicans to do any less when they're in power. If it's just tied to inflation, it takes all the political gamesmanship out of it.

I'm sure Mitt got where he is the old fashioned way--with help from his dad's friends. Real salt of the earth fellow.

I know the Left is going to dress him up like Jesse Helms, for Halloween, but under the makeup he'll still be Mitt. That's the sad part.

Careful. If you've taken down the Obama Shrine in your living room, you may get on a list. But if you leave up Che, you'll maybe get a pass. So, that's what I'd do. Take down Obama, leave up Che.

If you take the Dalai Lama's quotes out of context, creatively enough, you can probably make him sound like Charlie Sheen.
