• The Amazing Sleight-of-Hand Video That Will Have You Rewinding and Watching Again

  December 8, 2012 at 6:44am

  Hey, all you grammar freaks: Try criteria (plural word for singular subject), media (ditto), “as best as” (just plain dumb — why the second “as”?), (adjective) of a (noun) — what’s the “of” for?, “whom” for “who” (pay attention, Mark Levin), “myself” for “me” — why be afraid of a simple pronoun?… I could go on, but it’s time for bed. Seems we’re not taught grammar any more anyway; it’s gone the way of cursive writing.

• Is Capitalism Heartless? President of the Ayn Rand Institute Talks Economic Policy (And How to Fix the Economy) With TheBlaze

  Only when you give up the idea that god cares what you do can you understand the basic principle of free will. It works the same in economics, government or spiritual truth. If we are truly free, there is still one restriction: that which says you can do anything you want, but you cannot ever escape the consequences of your choices. It seems to me that government is the ultimate tool trying to negate this principle and make new rules. Religion does it with guilt, government does it with guns. What’s the difference?

  Probably the reason is that when enrolling in military activities, they consciously decided not to use that standard and took an oath to do otherwise. That is the epitome of self actualizing and what Rand would call enlightened self interest. Nathaniel Brandon explained it well in “The Virtue of Selfishness.”

• Which Obama Debate Gaffe Does Krauthammer Think Might ‘Cost the President Dearly’

  In reply to V-MindMeld.

  What’s wrong with that? I think most of us agree he’s right!

• The First Amendment Doesn’t Care If Muslims Are Offended

  In reply to Billca.

  Isn’t it about time someone pointed out that being “offended” and having one’s “feelings hurt” is a choice? I’m sick and tired of hearing about the victims of their own predilections.

• Who’s the Woman Behind the Viral Video ‘Obamacare Summed Up In One Sentence’?

  September 14, 2012 at 9:12am

  In reply to FaithfulFriend.

  As a recent widow to Alzheimer’s, I should warn you future widow(er)s, Obama’s panel of “experts” will surely have something to say about what/when care can be received for this terrifying disease. Wait until you face a ten year sentence with no possibility of parole or surcease, and they tell you that we can’t afford the care your loved one needs because (s)he’s too old to be worth it. You’d better hope you’re not around to share in that disaster — only one of many we’re about to experience if this treasonous clown is “successful.”

• ‘The Koran Is Our Constitution’: Egyptian President Promises to Ignore Egyptian Constitution For The Sake of Sharia In Chilling Speech

  In reply to ProbIemSoIver.

  I have only one question: What kind of sub-human entity aspires to its own destruction????

• ‘Horse’s Asses’: Multiple Sclerosis-Afflicted Cavuto Slams MSNBC’s Attacks on Ann Romney

  As my mother used to say: “Why is there more horses asses than there is horses?”

• ‘Horse’s Asses’: Multiple Sclerosis-Afflicted Cavuto Slams MSNBC’s Attacks on Ann Romney

  In reply to ErinLindsey.

  You have my complete admiration for handling an unbelievably difficult situation with composure and common sense. However, I fail to see how Ann Romney’s life style/choices has anything to do with anything. Whether she has MS or some other disease, she is a wealthy woman who loves horses; and her choice to be involved in dressage (or whatever else you might want to call it) is entirely her own business. She likes it, she can afford it, and the rest of the world should just butt out!

• Will Genetically Modified Food Labeling Be Beneficial or Result in Higher Costs and Lawsuits?

  June 15, 2012 at 6:50am

  In reply to kdshell1.

  There’s a lot more to the defective food than the introduction of pesticides, hormones, etc. The metabolic disaster that occurs when eating non-GMO but drastically hybridized wheat (which is in virtually everything we buy today) is truly frightening. I’m suggesting concerned people review the work of one William Davis, MD, who exposes the multitude of ways in which our un-evolved human metabolic system is damaged by trying to handle basic grains that are worlds different from those we can use. Please don’t seize on a simple moniker like “GMO” to think we’ve solved all the food problems that are making us sick and fat.
