I thought the goal was to establish democracy in Egypt, and try to get rid of their crushing corruption? How does having Mubarak step down, to be replaced by his handpicked vice president, guarantee this will happen? Something tells me that Mubarak is trying to pull a fast one in order to get the protests […]

Shouldn’t any politician who votes for the Patriot Act be automatically kicked out of the Tea Party Caucus? Of the 52 official members of Michelle Bachmann’s Tea Party Caucus, 44 of them voted for the Patriot Act on Tuesday. Wow. What part of “small government” and “protect the constitution” do they not understand?

Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly is waging a war against science. His technique is simple: come up with examples in the world that “nobody” can explain and use that to claim that there must be a god. But what is really hilarious about this are the examples he is picking. Ranker put together a list of […]

A new poll from CNN shows that the most important thing they want in a presidential candidate in 2012 is someone who can defeat Obama — even if that candidate disagrees with them on major issues and ideology. I guess I’m happy that Republicans are taking a slight break from ideology, but only so they […]

In 2003, Boeing decided to use a very aggressive outsourcing strategy in order to slash the cost of developing their new 787 Dreamliner. But last month, the Boeing Commercial Airplanes chief admitted that this strategy backfired completely — outsourcing cost far more money than it saved, and led to a three year delay in the […]

“Oil companies are now saying that the unrest in the Middle East could lead to an increase in gas prices. Did you ever notice that everything leads to increased gas prices: Egypt, the snowstorm, Snooki’s book, the ‘American Idol’ judges.” – Jay Leno “Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak said he would resign, but Egypt would then […]
© Matt Davies Some Republicans seem to be falling over each other proclaiming that we can’t allow Egypt to have a democracy, since they might, you know, decide to do something we can’t predict or — worse — don’t like. Get over it.
[This is an excerpt from a post in Fred Wickham’s Bullseye Rooster. Dan is Fred’s brother, and Buzz is his business partner in a small business. I totally agree with this idea.] Two years ago, Dan and Buzz were heartened by the election of Obama. Aside from all the marvelous change he would be bringing […]
“While in Egypt, CNN’s Anderson Cooper was attacked and beaten, which raises 2 questions. Is it safe to send our media into these places? And how do we get Glenn Beck over there?” – Conan O’Brien “Anderson Cooper from CNN was there (in Egypt), and he got punched 10 different times. And I thought, well, […]
