Finally. someone is courageous enough to say what everyone else is thinking . There is little doubt that many other companies feel the same way and are taking the same actions as David Farr , Emerson Electric ’s CEO. They choose to keep low profiles by not standing up and speaking out. Not so Farr...

Yesterday's post was titled, Mr. Obama, Don't Build That Wall! A reader, Marty Yost, was kind enough to post a comment stating that he agreed with my assessment and was impressed with the analysis I applied to the problem. I appreciate the sentiment. I very much do. Laboring in anonymity is oppressive...

In his article in The Observer on October 4th, Paul Harris asks the question, "Will California Become America's First Failed State?" Governor Schwarzenegger's specious California Vacation commercials notwithstanding, this is a question that needs asking. Indeed, in a scene reminescent...

Leave it to the Norwegians. Barak Obama has won the Nobel Peace Prize for doing... well, nothing. He did manage to get elected but he's only been in office for eight months. And he wins the Nobel Peace Prize? That can mean only one thing. The Nobel Peace Prize is worth about as much as the dollar...

Pres. Obama has apparently been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize this morning " for his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples, " but there appears to be a few on the left who feel that the award is undeserved. I copy below an interesting message...

I`d like to see how conservatives can figure out how to bitch about Obama`s new executive order . From WaPo on Monday (Juliet Eilerin) The federal government will require each agency to measure its greenhouse-gas emissions for the first time and set targets to reduce them by 2020, under an executive...

Anti-enviro gadfly Steven Milloy has a new blog post up that rightly skewers the green mandates that are providing a taxpayer-funded stream of business and profits to GE. Notes Milloy: GE announced today that utility giant American Electric Power (AEP) will purchase 110,000 smart meters from GE. And...

I raised my children to be colorblind. I took no pride in doing so other than the pride I took in teaching them to walk and eat. In fact, you don't teach colorblindness. You teach racism. At the appropriate age, I sent my children to school. There, they interacted with black and white on an equal...

A new tariff placed on Chinese tire imports is the latest blunder in a staggeringly growing number of poor economic policy decisions by the Obama administration since January. Like the many bailouts, "cash for clunkers" programs, and mortgage rescue acts, the tariff is a reactionary and myopic...

My wife is a school teacher. She teaches physics and chemisty to kids a lot bigger than she. The school she works in is a bit different than a normal school. It is called a "Technology High School" and is open to any student in the city - if they can get in. As you might expect, the demographic...

Grassroots is a term that really needs no explanation. Let a blade of good old Bermuda grass get hold and it will spread across a lawn like an invading army. Grass starts at the gound and does its own thing. Which is why it is applied to viral political movements. Such movements get started at the local...

The old joke goes something like this: How can you tell a politician is lying? Easy. His lips are moving. While elected officials have contributed mightily to our perception of their honesty they are not entirely responsible for their reputation. Having been an athlete for many years on all three sides...

Dinosaurs were big. They were the largest land creatures to ever walk the Earth. The largest were nearly a hundred feet long. But as large as they were there is a good reason they didn't get any bigger. In fact, there is an absolute limit to the size an Earth-bound creature can grow without collapsing...

I suppose that in a perfect world everyone would have access to healthcare. Well, then I guess the United States is as close to perfect as anywhere because everyone here has access to healthcare. Just like anyone can buy a car, buy a home, or buy clothes and food, anyone can buy healthcare. Healthcare...
