That&#039;s an excellent piece by G. Will, who some here consider a RINO, but I consider a constitutional scholar of the first order, and one of the best minds on the Right.</description>

		<description>I had one we all had to watch.  I found him one day following a flock of birds, talking away to them as he toddled along.

We&#039;d also find him standing at the knee of a stranger, just jabbering away in delight.

Very, very scary.</description>

		<description>Years ago I had just moved into military housing and didnt know any of my neighbors yet. One morning I open my sliding glass door and the toddler from next door comes through my back gate, greets me and barges past me just like I was his doorman.

He then plops himself up on my couch and makes himself at home. Funniest kid in the world. 

I expected his mom to be scouring the neighborhood for him, but I picked him up and took him back home. She didnt even have a clue he was gone. LOL. The kid could get through almost any kind of lock she could put on the door.</description>

It used to be very commonplace for banks and other financial institutions to issue their own currency.  See Thomas Sowell&#039;s &lt;em&gt;Basic Economics&lt;/em&gt;.</description>

		<description>Just heard that Berkshire Co. in Mass. has issued its own currency that can be used at many local businesses.  Why incur the expense of designing, producing and administering a local currency???  I hope tax dollars aren&#039;t being wasted in this effort.

I know Disney makes $$$ by getting visitors to use Mickey dollars in their parks...and people take some home as keepsakes (or just forget to spend it).  Who would want Berkshire Bucks as a keepsake???</description>

Allahpundit doesn&#039;t seem to recognize who is really behind that indoctrination program.

In my opinion, &lt;a href=&quot;http://itooktheredpill.wordpress.com/2009/04/25/forced-communist-indoctrination-on-college-campus/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;it&#039;s pretty darn obvious&lt;/a&gt;.</description>

   &lt;blockquote&gt; &lt;strong&gt;and very little used tool off the table.&lt;/strong&gt;

You did not actually type that with a straight face, did you?&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Actually, yeah.  See, my mind and yours run on &lt;em&gt;very &lt;/em&gt;different tracks...

&lt;blockquote&gt;Did they gain some valuable intel the 183rd time they waterboarded KSM that they hadn’t gotten the 182 times previous?
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Dunno.

Neither do you.

That makes us both completely ignorant of what we&#039;re discussing, on the finite level.

Two things...

I&#039;m not willing, in the absence of information, to accuse people of wrong who are trying to protect their nation.  You are.

If it was OK to water-board KSM once, it was OK to water-board him 200 times...under the care and supervision of a doctor, only under certain conditions...blah, blah, blab-la</description>

&lt;/blockquote&gt;This is a blog where an individual decides what to write. Can you picture Hollywood bashing Obama the way they did Bush? Even when Clinton gets mentioned, it&#039;s usually in a joking manner about sex. Vitriol is reserved for Bush.

		<description>John,

I took my wife to see the first Alien movie when she was at about 7 months with our first child.  To this DAY she still reminds me every time any of the Alien franchise is on TV.

Much better to let them choose.  Your pain now is nothing compared to being reminded over and over and over.....</description>

		<description>I had the misfortune of watching the movie &quot;I could never be your woman&quot; last night. 

Pregnant wife + Netflix = misery.

Not only was the movie bad, but the child sang a song for a talent show explaining that Bush was moronic and would sell his mother for a gallon of gas. I wonder if we&#039;ll ever see any criticism like this of Obama. Ever.

When the pendulum swings this far to the left, the return trip to the right will just be that much more enjoyable.</description>
