Nugent On Guns

When I think about Ted Nugent, I always seem to expect some nut that played way too many rock concerts.  As far as I can tell, in this video he makes more sense than all the lawyers, doctors & MBAs in Washington.

He is saying what many in America are thinking.  He’s just not afraid of what people think.

Spirit Lake Sioux Tribe Approves Of The UND Fighting Sioux Nickname

image thumb3 Spirit Lake Sioux Tribe Approves Of The UND Fighting Sioux Nickname

68% of the members of the Spirit Lake Sioux Tribe that voted approve of the Fighting Sioux nickname.  Finally, some common sense: Ask the “victims”!  So far, many people seem to be quick to speak “for” the tribal members.  Maybe more should let them speak for themselves.

I honestly think that the Fighting Sioux Nickname is intended as an honor and that some fat, white, east coast lawyer decided that the proud Sioux tribes should feel offended. 

However, if the tribes themselves (not the leaders, the actual members) decide that it is offensive, I say we get rid of the name.

Cato Institute To President Obama – WRONG!

There is no disagreement that we need action by our government, a recovery plan that will help to jumpstart the economy."

PRESIDENT-ELECT BARACK OBAMA, JANUARY 9 , 2009
With all due respect Mr. President, that is not true.

Notwithstanding reports that all economists are now Keynesians and that we all support a big increase in the burden of government, we do not believe that more government spending is a way to improve economic performance. More government spending by Hoover and Roosevelt did not pull the United States economy out of the Great Depression in the 1930s. More government spending did not solve Japan’s "lost decade" in the 1990s. As such, it is a triumph of hope over experience to believe that more government spending will help the U.S. today. To improve the economy, policy makers should focus on reforms that remove impediments to work, saving, investment and production. Lower tax rates and a reduction in the burden of government are the best ways of using fiscal policy to boost growth.
