Why the Nobel Peace Prize?

by clay on October 9, 2009

Today, President Obama was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. For what you say? According to the Nobel committed, for “his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between people.” Have they not noticed that he’s only been President for nine months? Have they not noticed that he hasn’t really accomplished much of anything in [...]

This is pretty good

by clay on July 1, 2009

It’s about time that someone let someone from the administration have it about the controlled meetings. Good for the White House press corp.

Wish they reacted that way now

by clay on May 21, 2009

Tonight I watched “The Pentagon Wars“, a movie from 1998 about the development of the Army’s Bradley Fighting Vehicle. During a scene where a general is being grilled about oddities during testing for the vehicle, he finally gives them the cost so far to develop it. He says “14″, one of the senators replies, “million?” [...]

Town Hall for Hope

by clay on April 24, 2009

I attended the Town Hall for Hope with Dave Ramsey tonight at our church. It was different than Dave’s usual things, as it was more of a pep rally than a straight up ‘how-to’ on managing your money. The main topic was the state of the economy in general. What did I bring away from [...]

Heard on the radio

by clay on April 23, 2009

Driving home the other night, I was listening to one of the talk radio stations in the area while they were discussing the pros and cons of the morning after pill. I disagree with the idea of it, but that’s another post entirely. The conversation drifted to whether abortion should even be legal or not. [...]

Life goes on

by clay on November 5, 2008

So, we now have President-elect Barack Obama. Congratulations to Senator Obama, Senator Biden, and all those who voted for and supported him. I disagree with many of his positions, but it is quite a thing to know that the country has elected the first black president in history. Liberals, be warned. You now have every [...]

Campaign Thuggishness? Maybe not…

by clay on October 25, 2008

Glenn Reynolds at Instapundit wrote this today about someone pulling Joe the Plumber’s driver’s license or license plate information from the Ohio state system. I think there is some truth behind this, but I also think it could have been done somewhat innocently. I work for a software company that deals with the Texas version [...]

Orson Scott Card tells the truth

by clay on October 20, 2008

I often disagree with Orson Scott Card, but I think he’s right on here. But right now, you are consenting to or actively promoting a big fat lie — that the housing crisis should somehow be blamed on Bush, McCain, and the Republicans.  You have trained the American people to blame everything bad — even [...]

I Am Joe

by clay on October 18, 2008

I have to agree with Iowahawk on this (caution: profanity). What the media has done to Joe the Plumber is reprehensible. Joe merely had the guts to ask Obama a question, and now the media has done more investigating into a guy who isn’t even a candidate than they have into an actual candidate. I [...]

It would be funnier if it weren’t so true

by clay on September 30, 2008

This is part of a larger article at Dr. Voddie Baucham’s blog. You should really read the whole thing, but this video is pretty funny. It seems the British understand how the system works better than we do. While you’re at Dr. Baucham’s site, read some of his other stuff. He’s really good. His writing [...]
