Rational Conservatism from the Rocky Mountains
My Way News – White House, Kerry Exchange Accusations Kerry said the comment in question was “a botched joke about the president and the president’s people, not about the troops … and they know that’s what I was talking about.” So, if you believe that, I’ve got some oceanfront property in Colorado for sale. What [...]
John Kerry had this to say after George W. Bush, Tony Snow and John McCain demanded an apology for his despicable insult of American military men and women: “I am sick and tired of a bunch of despicable Republicans who will not take responsibility for their own mistakes,” Kerry said. “Enough is enough. We are [...]
“No, we’re not biased! How can you say such a thing! How can you think that? What are you, some sort of provincial boob?” “It’s just that we can’t find a single, solitary Republican who is fit to serve in any office. That’s all. Now be off with you!”
John Kerry was giving a speech at a college this weekend and said the following: “You know, education — if you make the most of it, you study hard and you do your homework and you make an effort to be smart, you can do well. “If you don’t, you get stuck in Iraq.” Now [...]
So, I don’t “get” Halloween. I never did, really. As a kid Halloween was a favorite holiday for the sheer selfish pleasure of getting a bag full of goodies. For much of my young childhood my family lived in the enlisted family quarters on a variety of Air Force Bases, except for those times that [...]
Global Warming could have impact comparable to the Great Depression or WWI or WWII. Now this is an actually serious analysis and reasonable conclusion. Not “the end of the world” as Al Gore says, but serious and devastating enough to worry about. This sort of analysis gets my attention a lot more than pictures of [...]
People who use “mute” when they mean “moot”. People who use “eek” when they mean “eke.” People who use “its” when they mean “it’s” and vice-versa. People who use “myself” when they mean “me.” People who can’t spell and don’t even know it. Here are some misspellings I recently encountered on a single message board [...]
Another “final” repair mission to the Hubble Space Telescope may be approved. I’m a big fan of the Hubble, but at the same time, I’m ready for the next generation and would not want to see that launch delayed because of diverting funds to keep the Hubble going. With adaptive optics technology several earth-based telescopes [...]
It has now been one year since I started this blog. Hard for me to believe, but there it is. When I set the blog up I purchased the URL “cosmicconservative.com” for two years, so I have another year left before I have to make an existential decision about this blog site. I enjoy blogging, [...]
A Most Violent Month, and Many Final Farewells – New York Times Burials at Arlington National Cemetery took on a grim regularity in October, when at least 103 American troops were killed in Iraq and Afghanistan. In Iraq, the toll had reached 99 by Saturday, making October the deadliest month since January 2005. Anyone surprised [...]
