The Voters of the State of Washington Double Down on Democrat Destruction

May I add my disgust at the results of yesterday's election.  I am ashamed to be a resident of the state where the voters vote themselves higher taxes, boondoggle projects that waste their dollars (choo-choo train that 1% of the population will ride), essentially disarm their police (after I 940 passes with 60% support, police …

The folks at Automattic asked us to blog about our voting today

This is perhaps not what they wanted to hear, but it is the Truth.  When there was a Republican running, that's whom I voted for.  The Republican Party in Washington State is a joke.  The man with the perpetual sneer who "represents' my district doesn't have to campaign, since he has next to no opposition. …

Annals of “Liberals Destroy Everything They Touch”, Seattle Edition

These are just a few of the stories at the top of the KOMO News site this morning.  Every single story shows how the radicals running local government have destroyed everything they touch. The City of Seattle encourages (does not punish) public drug use, especially in and around the burgeoning homeless encampments. Seattle police Officer …

I found my retirement “calling” on the Hillsdale cruise to Hawaii

I am 69 years old and still working full-time as a buyer for an aerospace company. Aside from vowing never to draw Social Security or be subject to Medicare (as a reason for keeping working), I couldn’t think of what I would do with myself if I retired. I play violin, but there’s not much …

Wednesday, July 25 through Monday, July 30, we were again at sea, and you know what that means...  Lectures!  The weather wasn't conducive to much deck-walking, but I did get a few ocean and cloud pictures.  This was the last picture of Hawaiian waters. July 25 speakers were Roger Kimball on "Trump vs The Elites"; …

An Open Letter to the Owners of Kroger Corporation, and Makers of Products Sold There

Dear Kroger: I am a buyer by trade, and I can spot cost-cutting, and price increases a mile away.  I and many of my fellow grocery customers, have noticed in recent years, the shrinking of package size on many of the items we purchase in your and other grocery stores.  It started with ice cream, …

By Permission of a Ricochet friend, “Progressive Thought”

Gender is a social construct; there are no differences between the sexes. All men are bad. Race is a social construct; there are no differences between the races. All white people are bad. No culture is better than another. Western Civilization is bad. Diversity of skin color is good. Diversity of thought is bad. Religion …
