In This Dimension

Maybe the Brits Will Tell Obama Where to get Off?

So today, The One has promised us, he will meet with the CEO of BP and “inform him that he will…”

Where on earth does Obama come up with the idea that he gets to “inform” a foreign national how that national will behave in international waters while running his business?

Did I miss something - like barack’s coronation - while sleeping?

This idiot actually thinks he is some kind of a king or something.

Newsflash, obama - not only are you NOT a king, you are an idiot and less and less of the world has any use for you as the days[…]

The One, SOTU, Healthcare….

Many many articles and columns have been written on The Failure of the Messiah to understand what is going on, and the consequences of his seemingly demented demand for something America doesn’t want, and his complete inability to change course. (Leopard, spots, etc.)

Here is one of the best on the real meaning of what’s happened and the toll on his next three years.

Adversity and Responsibility - Red v Blue states

Emergency Weather Bulletin

This text is from a county emergency manager out in the western part of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan after a severe snow storm. Although MI is a “Blue State,” the UP is solid Red. So by comparing and contrasting the demands of those in New Orleans vs. those in the UP following a major weather event, we can see the difference in how Red Staters and Blue Staters deal with adversity – or not. And how self-reliance differs from Democrat to Republican.

It isn’t news to thinking, aware people (Republicans), but it likely is incomprehensible to Nanny-Staters (Democrats).

Government and the Media

The Conventional Wisdom is that the newspaper industry is failing due to the internet. Wrong.

Because of this mis-perception, post-operative brain donor Rep Henry Waxman (D, CA - of course), now wants the government to manage the media, help “tweak” its failing business model, etc. Because “quality journalism was essential to U.S. democracy.”

First - if the newspapers and newsweeklies delivered “quality journalism” they wouldn’t be in trouble.

Second - how, exactly, does a news organization managed by the Feds accurately report on the Feds? (They can’t for you Democrats reading this blog). Why will we need a First Amendment if the government[…]

Michael Crichton - Editorial by the Wall Street Journal on his death

Michael Crichton has died. You know this. Who was he? An MD, author, film and TV producer, film director. He wrote excellent science fiction based on real science.

‘Aliens Cause Global Warming’

From a lecture delivered by the late Michael Crichton at the California Institute of Technology on Jan. 17, 2003:

Cast your minds back to 1960. John F. Kennedy is president, commercial jet airplanes are just appearing, the biggest university mainframes have 12K of memory. And in Green Bank, West Virginia at the new National Radio Astronomy Observatory, a young astrophysicist named Frank Drake runs a two-week project called Ozma, to search[…]

“My friends, we live in the                 
greatest nation                                  “Life’s tough.
in the history of the world.                  It’s even tougher
I hope you’ll join me                           if you’re stupid.”
