Democratic hard ball

Posted on September 20, 2008 by ChrisA

Cost of government bailout

Posted on September 20, 2008 by ChrisA

The cost of the government bailout of the Wall Street and the US financial system is $2500/person according to libertarian Radney Balko. I agree with his conclusions as well. Wall Street firms took idiotic risks but they were pushed/incentized to … Continue reading →

Rangel an idiot

Posted on September 20, 2008 by ChrisA

Probably a hero to the Boulder liberal population. I’m sure you’ve heard by now that Charlie has declared Sarah Palin disabled. Why do the Democrats believe they can handle the pressure of running the country when they can’t handle Sarah … Continue reading →

Michelle on voting

Posted on September 18, 2008 by ChrisA

Hey, even I can agree with Michelle Obama on this one… Michelle Obama asked voters Thursday to make their choice on the issues, not because, “I like that guy” or, “she’s cute.” Sounds like her opinion of “some” voters isn’t … Continue reading →

Andrew Hallam

Posted on September 18, 2008 by ChrisA

Adjunct Professor Andrew Hallam has changed his assignment. You can see the CBS Channel 4 video report here. Of course, I’m sure Andrew grades fairly. Ridiculing students in the classroom because they are Republican shows a total lack of class. … Continue reading →

e-mail hacker finds nothing

Posted on September 18, 2008 by ChrisA

According to Sarah Palin’s e-mail hacker this is what he found… I read though the emails… ALL OF THEM… before I posted, and what I concluded was anticlimactic, there was nothing there, nothing incriminating, nothing that would derail her campaign … Continue reading →

Boulder, find your white trash right here

Posted on September 18, 2008 by ChrisA

Thanks Heather Mallick! In the CBC story, Mallick wrote that John McCain’s running mate “added nothing to the ticket that the Republicans didn’t already have sewn up, the white trash vote.” She proceeded to write that the Alaska governor “has … Continue reading →

Contradicting the fairy tale image of Sarah Palin

Posted on September 18, 2008 by ChrisA

Good to see instructor Andrew Halem of Metro State College leading the way. I have little doubt there are plenty of Andre Halem Wannabees at the University of Colorado and Middle and High Schools across the country. “I was shocked, … Continue reading →

Spilt soda federal jail time

Posted on September 18, 2008 by ChrisA

C’mon there must be more to this story. Federal jail time for not paying for a soda? Does US attorney Tom Moss have a boss? Is he bored or is he simply a pathetic loser? Must be more to this … Continue reading →

Gotta love the IRS

Posted on September 17, 2008 by ChrisA

The IRS has acknowledged that Jamey and Lora Costner of Newport are victims of identity theft and Congress has called on them to testify. But does that mean the IRS will take a step back and be reasonable? Do pigs … Continue reading →

Barack ads

Posted on September 17, 2008 by ChrisA

This is “lifted” from the local paper… I am registered to vote Barack and it will be against you. It’s probably one of the few selections I make on the ballot that will amount too much, the other probably being … Continue reading →
