We Hate Banks! And Wall Street! But We L.O.V.E. Us Some Fannie!

It continues to continue.

Each and every day we hear from Washing that we hate banks and business.  And look, there’s a lot to hate.  When it comes to shady deals and crooked crooks, banks and Wall Street are full of ’em.  We all want ’em gone.

But serious.  If you’re gonna call out greedy crooks, you should make sure you call out ALL greedy crooks.

Dirty Rotten No Good Unions

And I don’t like ’em very much either.

Greece and California aren’t the only governments in a world of hurt because of the power of Unions.  New York is getting hammered too.

Who Would'a Known?

I don’t think there’s anyone alive who would dispute the damage that’s gonna be inflicted on the Gulf Coast.  It really is gonna mess things up down there for quite some time.  I remain convinced that the costs of drilling are no where near the benefits of drilling.

The Downside to Being Right All the Time

One of the downsides to being right all the time is that the burden to continue to be right is hard to bear.  With a batting average at 1.000, it can be difficult to handle the pressure each day.  And to make it especially hard is having to support positions that strike pretty close to my heart.

Nanny State

You think I’m jokin’ ya when I tell you we are in serious danger of becoming vassals of the State?  That our individual Liberties are being eroded to the point of nothing?

Where Brad and Britt Are Wrong: Version II

This morning I was driving to work and had the radio tuned to WZTKBrad and Britt are the morning talent.  The discussion during the segment I caught was “Cash for Appliance Clunkers”.  Apparently I missed the lead up ’cause Brad was all worked up over the fact that folks were callin’ him out for taking advantage of the program.  I kinda resonate with that fact, I mean serious, if you have a 20-year-old freezer and you claim to be concerned about the environment, why is it you will only replace your nasty old hardware when I pay for it?

Anyway, the conversation turned to the other “Cash for…” program, the infamous “Cash for Clunkers”.

Outlaw Water Main Breaks

It would seem that elected officials in Boston aren’t satisfied with altering the laws of men; they also would like to change the laws of nature.  And stuff.  So I offer them this unsolicited advice:

Stop nibbling at the edges and just legislate away water main breaks.

Doc, It Hurts When I Do This

You know the old saw…A patient goes to see a doctor and complains that “it hurts when I do this”.  To which the doctor replies somewhat simply, “Then stop doing that”!

United States House: North Carolina

North Carolina had her primaries yesterday.  While there were many races, I was really only concerned with one:  District 4.  This race featured BJ Lawson and Frank Roche.  Both candidates are strong and I would be happy with either one.  However, I was pulling for Mr. Lawson to pull it out.  And he did:

District 4 Primary

We now have until November to get him packing for Washington.

However, there are several other races that have my interest too:

2nd District:  Seat held by Bob Etheridge

4th District:  Seat held by David Price

13th District:  Seat held by Brad Miller

There are other seats held by Democrats, but many of those representatives have a more conservative vein in ’em and really, I would rather focus on the largest of the Leftists.

Let’s see what we can do to get these guys out of office!
