“They don’t like to talk about ideas. I do,” Campfield said in an interview. … Campfield says most of his legislative proposals come from reading or listening and then thinking.
Great. Just great. The State House is now Campfield’s personal frat? His [...]

Yesterday was Hitler’s birthday. I can only assume that one of our employees in the statehouse decided to honour this ’special occasion’ by nicknaming a blogger of German extraction ‘Kleinhitler’. (There you go, ACK. There’s your stupid hotlink.)
Glen Dean informs me that I need to lighten right the heck up [...]

Early reports seem to confirm the rumours of yesterday. The Virginia Tech Mass Murderer was a student at the college.
I went to college. I loved it and I hated it. And believe me when I say right now that at my small Indiana college there were at least three people I [...]

I may be living too far south to post this. I know more than one of my fellow libertarians will be standing by with the bucket of hot pitch once I post this.
I love–seriously LOVE–Abraham Lincoln.
And today is the anniversary of the day he was shot to death, point blank in the head, [...]

I had a long post all simmering on the back burner that went into much detail about Evangelicals and conservative politics with a dash of Church of Christ thrown in. But it’s Friday and I have no desire to go there right now. Maybe later in the day. Maybe Monday when all [...]

Wes Comer has two separate posts along the same theme. The general idea is that Fred Thompson (like Chuck Norris and Jack Bauer) is a sort of he-man kickarse action figure.
Am I bad for wanting our next president to do simple, ordinary things?
Let’s balance the budget. Let’s get realistic [...]

So I’ve gotten myself caught up in a bit of a feud. (Yes, I’m certain that shocks all of you to your very core.) The long and the short of the matter is that some folks back in my hometown want to generate renewed interest in the downtown area. [...]

It looks like my brother owes me a cookie. I bet him ages ago that Thompson would run for president. Poopie Monkeyhead naysayed me. Every day that I read commentary on Thompson’s near-certain candidacy I can taste the chocolate chips on my tongue.
It troubles me. I thought for sure that I was going to [...]

Ned asked this question in a thread over at Nashville Is Talking yesterday. It’s a good question and one that deserves an answer.
