Another “don’t believe what you read in the papers” moment

Presented without further comment.

To boldly go where no kidney stone has gone before

You have got to be kidding me…..

This is troubling

Assisted suicide is a troubling concept. While the Oregon law seems to be suitable narrow in focus, the problem is when does it stop? Will there be amendments making it easier and easier. Will it eventually reach a point where the State begins to decide these things? Like it appears to have already?

I know the two things are not identical, but it is still very troubling when States begin deciding who is healthy enough to live. Too slippery a slope to be trusted to politicians.

Could we get a little quiet, please?

Ok, the NSA issue is headed for court. I think some of the plaintiffs are kind of shaky, but whatever. Now until the court actually rules, could people stop pronouncing that the President is guilty? If it turns out to have been illegal, fine. But making flat statements of his guilt are improper under our legal system. He must be presumed innocent.

This is almost too funny

So what if he’s been discredited? He’s always got a job with these folks!

Clonaid? I think I have the CD…….

This is a must read

There actually are some people on the left who are starting to get it

I don’t know that the “heartland embraces” this movie is correct or not. I lost interest in this a while back. But these comments tend to show that there is some actual sanity on the left. The Democratic party would do well to listen before they run like lemmings off a cliff chasing the left wing.

I sometimes get called a “Reich winger” in comments on other sites by lefties who cannot get it through their heads that not everyone who disagrees with them is a puppet of the VRWC. And I sure don’t see any convincing facts being used to argue their positions. Hate, name-calling and distortions and lies don’t win arguments.

I get so sick of extremist nonsense. I don’t repeat anyone’s talking points or spin, I actually think about things I post. I tend to, as a friend of mine puts it, “throw the bullshit flag” on anyone I think is spinning or memeing. Left or right. But lately, it seems the worst offenders are lefties. I don’t comment on one of the more right wing sites anymore since they started attracting some right wing folks with extreme positions. But I have to wear full protective gear when I look at some of the big left-wing sites. There are some totally deranged hatemongers over there. Downright toxic.

As I have said before, get a clue.

Open wide

This is rather disturbing. There has to be a wierd back story to this article….

And it went on for seven months after the authorities were made aware it was happening.

Socialized medicine. Yeesh.

Best wishes

For a speedy recovery for Gerald Ford.

I rather thought President Ford got a lot of bad press for no particularly good reason. I think he did a pretty decent job given the mess he was handed to deal with.

Interesting development

This is interesting. Seems there is some political horse trading going on.
