“Drill, Baby, Drill!”, or “How to Create a Major Oil Spill.”

I’m a conflicted moderate when it comes to politics.  When it comes to theology, I’m a conservative.  When it comes to citizenship, I’m a strict Constitutionalist, believing that silly ideals like separation of church and state and a fundamental right to privacy protect my God-given calling to be a theological conservative.  This all means I [...]

The Texas Textbook Massacre – Ideologues Run Amok

Pop quiz time, hotshot. Q:  When is a “slave” not a “slave?” A:  When that person is actually a piece of property in the “Atlantic triangular trade.” Huh?

Mike Murdock: Just Another Christian Scam Artist

Living in the Philadelphia area, I routinely flip over to Matt O’Donnell, Tamela Edwards, and the Action News Team for my weekly wake-up dose of reality.  Stabbings, murders, rapes, earthquakes, lava flows…  You know.  Just the stuff you need to get your day started off with a “What is the world coming to!” bang.  We [...]

NoMoreGreed.com Week in Review – Prejean, Obama, and Gitmo

What a wonderful week it was for the NoMoreGreed eagle-eyed reporting team!  From bimbos to bozos, it was a week full of chuckles, jaw-droppers, and head-scratchers.  Let’s get right to the mayhem… Bimbos, Busts, and Boneheads There is nothing as pathetically precious as a beauty pageant contestant with skeletons in her closet.  You always get [...]

Obama Speaks Plainly – And Slips One By…

My family and I sat down tonight to a civics lesson in why Barack Obama is the Prez and George Bush is a fast-fading memory.  The man can just plain speak and when he does speak he speaks very plainly.  He knows how to articulate tough issues in simple terms and hits all the emotional [...]

Blagojevich Likens Self to Ghandi, King, and Mandela – You Can’t Make This Stuff Up, Folks.

You just can’t make this stuff up, folks.  There I was yesterday rushing through a breakfast of a bagel and left-over piece of my son’s birthday cake, when I heard deluded Illinois Governor Rob Blagojevich liken himself to Ghandi, Martin Luther King, and Nelson Mandela. I kid you not. If I had not heard it [...]

Republican Faithful Deny The Full Power of Sin

I was rummaging through the Gallup Poll web site today and stumbled across the following, new poll. PRINCETON, NJ — A Gallup update based on more than 21,000 interviews conducted as part of Gallup Poll Daily tracking in October shows that registered voters’ religious intensity continues to be a powerful predictor of their presidential vote [...]

In Praise of “Elitists”

Nothing makes me want to laugh harder than when I hear Hillary Clinton’s supporters calling Barack Obama “elitist.” It’s a coded way of saying that a candidate is out of touch with the plight of the common person. It’s a subliminal attack on education or wealth as if education or wealth are to be feared. [...]

What’s Good for the Goose is Good for the Panderer

Do you feel like a kid at heart? I know I do sometimes. Take the other day, for example. I stepped outside the house, the sky was cloudless, the humidity was hovering near single digits, and the temperature immediately made me consider taking in a little hike through the local state park.  Forget work, it [...]
