From Allusions to Illusions
I really like these T-Shirts. Sadly I think many will misread them.
The Montgomery County (Maryland) Police believe the law doesn’t apply to them.
The police of Montgomery County believe that speed limits are for little people, not big important people like them. Or to put it another way, they are above the rule of law at the very least with regards to speed limits, who knows […]
New High in U.S. Prison Poplulation
Apparently we hit a new record… go us?
More than 1% of the U.S. population is presently in jail. Obviously if you are minority or poor than more than 1% or your community is currently in jail. I don’t understand how we accept that state of affairs as if […]
It’s been a few days since the questionably named Protect America Act expired and we haven’t been killed yet. No reason we should be the same wire tapping continues unabated, but now they have to go to the FISA court which never learned the word no. But it is at least has […]

The Senate is taking this opportunity to take back some power stolen by President Bush who believes himself Emperor. It’s a small thing, but it is important. Technically the Senate didn’t take a recess for Thanksgiving or Christmas. It would be understandable if you missed the important work they did […]
I was thinking this morning about Libertarianism. I concluded that in its idealistic form it is “Wealth Makes Right.” People often frame it in terms of about personal liberties and that sounds great, but I see in terms of institutional liberty.
So the libertarian says we should get rid of governmental regulation because the […]
