Ode to My Hero Rush Limbaugh-Updated

The first Delusion in which I do not participate is the delusion of "man-made climate change", and the corollaries that demand that we abandon the benefits of plastic items like grocery bags and straws.  It makes me angry when the all-powerful Government decides for me which light bulbs I must use (and no longer may …

Non-Civilization in our Civilized Country

Did you know that there are pockets of "non-civilization" within our civilized United States?  And we host them, and encourage them to continue to be not-civilized.  We spend significant federal dollars on maintenance of these pockets of non-civilization. Those pockets of non-civilization are called Indian Reservations, and they are everywhere in the United States.  One …
