The Manic Eclectic: August 2008
http://jamesspurgeon.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
James Spurgeon's Blog (yes, he's blogging again). Wednesday, August 20, 2008. Obama and the Least of These. I told you, I told you, I told you! I am neither a prophet nor the son of a prophet but isn't it uncanny that on Saturday morning here in east Texas I was telling you how socialists historically have misused Matthew 25 to promote a socialist agenda and that very night Barack Obama goes to Saddleback Church and does that very thing? Shouldn't I get an award or something? Check out this short video:.

The River: The Collective vs. the Individual
http://thomsawyer.blogspot.com/2009/09/collective-vs-individual.html
Thursday, September 3, 2009. The Collective vs. the Individual. The heart and soul of the health care debate hinges on whether one holds to a theory of government which champions the collective or a theory of government which champions the individual. This is evident both from the arguments I have heard proposed on the radio and from a reading of my on-line discourse with our Aussie liberal friend. At least Captain Spock thought so in. Star Trek II, the Wrath of Khan. Star Trek III, the Search for Spock.

The River: Cap and Trade 2009
http://thomsawyer.blogspot.com/2009/06/cap-and-trade-2009.html
Friday, June 26, 2009. Cap and Trade 2009. Well, it happened. I heard it on the radio about 5:40pm CDT. Another large piece of our liberty was sold down the river and probably for less than thirty pieces of silver. While most of America was obsessing over the death of a psychologically disturbed pop star, the U.S. House of Representatives rushed through, and got passed by a narrow margin, an energy tax bill that will cost thousands of jobs and hundreds of thousands of dollars. These people have no shame.

The River: No Longer a Republican
http://thomsawyer.blogspot.com/2009/07/no-longer-republican.html
Tuesday, July 14, 2009. No Longer a Republican. Dennis Miller is one cool cat, to use an expression he might use. Miller has an exceptional vocabulary, an encyclopedic memory, a razor wit, and a unequalled command of the art of the metaphor. I love Dennis, absolutely love him. Murphy said to Miller something akin to. Come on, Dennis, those guys were going to the polls for McCain anyway. Do you think they would vote for Obama? Mike Murphy could not be more wrong. Was not going to vote for John McCain....

The River: The Future of Health Care?
http://thomsawyer.blogspot.com/2009/09/future-of-health-care.html
Wednesday, September 30, 2009. The Future of Health Care? Dr Lemuel Calhoon,. Posted this gem at the end of one of his weekly re-postings of Ann Coulter's op-ed genius. I wanted to bring it here because, well, he is exactly right. Read it for yourself here, or go there and read it. The absolute worst thing about socialized medicine in the US is that it will slow the advancement of of medical science in the whole world to a glacial pace. With the proviso that no one can predict the future with absolute ac...

The River: Montana and Gun Control
http://thomsawyer.blogspot.com/2009/10/montana-and-gun-control.html
Thursday, October 1, 2009. Montana and Gun Control. From Newsmax.com - (read the whole article.). HELENA, Mont. - If Montana has its way in a lawsuit filed Thursday, there will be far less federal gun control in the state. The state's libertarian streak- which has spawned efforts to buck the federal Real ID Act and sparked widespread contempt for the Patriot Act- is now triggering a fight over whether Montana should have sovereignty over made-in-Montana guns and equipment. The association, joined by the ...

The River: A Nod to Neil Peart and Rush
http://thomsawyer.blogspot.com/2009/06/nod-to-neil-peart-and-rush.html
Tuesday, June 23, 2009. A Nod to Neil Peart and Rush. The idea for this blog came to me while listening to the classic Rush song. The lyrics were, at least in part, penned by Neil Peart, while Geddy Lee's voice wailing "The river! Is simply unforgettable. It is a powerful song with powerful lyrics- too heady for me to really. Here is a link to their site. I recommend you buy some of their music if that style is your cup of tea. And if you've never heard them before give them a shot. They are, in ...Notab...

The River: Missing Governors
http://thomsawyer.blogspot.com/2009/06/missing-governors.html
Friday, June 26, 2009. Much was made of the absence of South Carolina governor Mark Sanford over Father's Day weekend. While the Democrats and media tried to make political hay of it and the governor's mansion, including Sanford's wife, sought in turn to make nothing out of it, Sanford himself, ultimately, is the one who made it what it was- a wreck. What if a natural disaster or something had happened while he was gone? Here's what I wish I could have said to that guy). How old are you, twelve? Have we ...
