Free kibbles

It's sunny and 15 at 1:30 PM. I could use a little global warming about now.

Students copying license plates then speeding past red light cameras so a ticket is automatically sent to their enemy.

George Will highlight's the president's use of TARP funds to bail out the auto makers even though Congress had explicitly voted not to bail them out as an example that big government inevitably leads to lawlessness and the marginalization of Congress.

Ill. Gov. Blagojevich denies any wrong doing. Of course he does. He knows that what he did is the same thing every politician does every day. Politics as usual in America is corruption. The press wants us to think Blago is an exception. He's not. They're all corrupt, though certainly some more than others.

Another problem of big government and bailouts is the restrictions of freedom that come with them. For example, besides forcing auto makers to make cars people don't want to buy, the auto bailout bill would have forced the auto makers to drop lawsuits against environmental regulations.

Satisfying rant from Cato founder about listening to the government officials who created our problems blaming our non-existent free markets. I share his frustration.

Canadian PM close to caving on Big 3 bailout. Let's hope he holds firm. We need some leader somewhere to be sane.

Is this guy really proposing repeating the mistakes that caused our problems, inflation, as a way of alleviating them?

Essay exposes the outstanding double standard of liberals and their media allies regarding resumes. Liberals love Obama and Caroline Kennedy despite both having empty resumes yet attacked Sarah Palin's experience despite her rather large resume. It also speaks to the elitism of liberals, who think anybody named Kennedy or from a big city political machine like Chicago, no matter how little experience they have, are better than the self-made men and women of mainstream America. And I think that was the real hatred of the left for Sarah Palin - she was self-made and her very existence repudiates modern liberalism.

Israeli candidate vying for presidency both vow to topple Hamas. No Iraeli leader ever thought of that before? There will be no peace in the Middle East as long as Hamas and Hezbollah are armed.
