As I started reading this article from some dumb paper, I was really feeling the plight of conservative students. Surely, I thought, there is some Catch-22 in trying to retain the conservative values of your upbringing on a college campus since most professors are liberal. The whole chicken/egg kind of problem presents itself on whether professors are liberal because an extensive college education opens the mind, or are liberals running the college experience and scaring away conservative students? Then I read this:

Now conservative activists are fighting back. David Horowitz…

and my mind shut down.

How can anyone make a reasonable effort to support an idea and let David Horowitz get involved. To balance the article, further down they mention the support of Ann Coulter and Sean Hannity, too. (Not really. I made that last part up.)

I saw this trend emerging on another group late last week, but I didn’t get a change to send flowers to any of the waiting couples at SF’s City Hall.

thanks to the Internet, there’s also been beauty, in the form of hundreds of bouquets of flowers that have been delivered to couples waiting in line for their marriage licenses. These flowers have been ordered and paid for by total strangers, people from all over the world wanting to share in the good feeling happening in San Francisco and wanting to show that they believe marriage is a civil right that should be available to any two people, not just to a man and a woman.

So, is Crazy Billionaire going to support this program asking for No Billionaire Left Behind?

Deregulate elections. Eliminate all limits on campaign contributions. Democracy means the right to use our money in any way we choose. Repealing the restrictive laws regulating money in politics will make the buying of elected officials vastly more efficient.

This is the story of one man’s quest to buy the little blue pill after being hounded by so many spam ads, then it continues into his use of said pill.

The secret to ordering drugs online, I discovered, is that you have to lie.

Can you believe that? You have to lie in order to get the Viagra. See, when their online form asks why you’re ordering the drug, instead of writing:

I want to make sweet, sweet love all night long.

You’re supposed to say:

male sexual function problems (erection problems)

(JRO – I’m mulling on the two earner thing, but as I’m in Houston, playing with the boy and spending quality time with the round, round wife takes precedence)

Praise for WJC at NRO.

“Bill Clinton may have had his faults, but on trade he was superlative. He refused to pander to the squeaky wheels demanding protection from foreign imports, and pushed vigorously to open U.S. and foreign markets to increased trade… Restricting imports to temporarily save a few jobs would have threatened foreign retaliation and reduced foreign investment in the U.S., which would have cost far more jobs than the few that were saved. And the job losses would have been in businesses that pay above-average wages, which is generally the case for workers in foreign-owned companies. Thus, Clinton made the simple calculation that increased trade and investment was good for him politically and protectionism was not.”
