Opinion On “Climate Emails Stoke Debate”

Marty, I would add: A true scientist is one who has a desire to can't find a job out where we have things wrong. Alternately, a person who creates apparatus like the Hubble or the LHC that allow us to test hypotheses to find out where they break down or to find effects of which we were previously unaware, not to mention I appreciate his bongo playing. Like all humans Feynman had warts. More

Some Thoughts On “‘A Relevant Factor’”

The blurbs regarding Clift and Gerstein show liberals and Dems distorting facts to fit their ideologies and political interests. Liberals can't accept the majority's job rejection letter of their ideology. Democrats can't accept that liberal ideas, to the extent they have designed or influenced the their policies, have directly caused their poor performance. Neither liberals nor Dems More

My View On “Hurricane Irene Batters U.S., Leaves Thousands Without Power”

First, most beach houses and those near the coast have that built in by neceissity over the years.....most states have building codes for at risk areas........media driven panic gets more people far inland needlessly screwing plywood how to build a resume their houses........forcing everyone to build that in, in an area where a storm him once every 15-30 years is a waste. .... A lot More

A Response To “Kabul Car Bomb Targets U.S. Convoy”

As a government contractor, my organization have been outfitting the soldiers with MRAP(s) for the last seven years. These trucks have been reducing fatalities tremendously and I believe convoys should have the privilege to use these trucks. You cannot fault the US government for all these issues that have been developing for several years. For example, when the Taliban destroys their More

Analysis On “The ‘Democratization of Credit’ Is Over”

Although I can agree that the consumer is equally wrong by using the transfer credit card debt to get them in trouble, the Banks and Credit card companies are more so wrong since they charge usurous rates and fees that once people get into their web, they are stuck in that web for years if not decades of debt. I have believed that for years, the federal government should have a More

An Opinion On “The Weekend Interview with Dick Armey: Revolutionary Do”

As part of limiting government, the Tea Party how to succeed in life succeed needs to keep the focus on the economy and stay away from issues of religion, personal choice, abortion, marriage/civil unions, sexual preference, end of life decisions, etc. If they can do that, and stick to the economy and issues of government structure, they can succeed where the Republicans failed in capturing More

My View On “Matching Up College Roommates”

kids shouldn't not be forced to live in residential hall. true, the ability to deal and work with different kinds of people is important, but living under the same roof is totally different animal to deal with and probably ain't really that relevant in any case. after all, you can deal and work with a pesky co-worker all fine yet still reserve the option to retire back into your own More

An Opinion On “The New Rules of Saving for College”

If representatives decide encouraging savings for and spending on education, healthcare, and retirement savings account warrants tax breaks, it would be better to allow a combined account from which funds can be withdrawn for any of these purposes. Having separate accounts forces one to decide how much to allocate to each of these in advance, whereas with a single account, one can spend More

My Take On “John Yoo: On Gay Marriage, Leave It to the Voters”

My marriage is based on centuries signs of a bad relationship the common definition of marriage. My argument is not about the other guy's rights to a legal relationship. My objection is to their drive to redefine marriage, and to put their relationship on the same footing, unilaterally, without discussion. The other guys' marriage should have never occurred in the first place, and wouldn't More

Criticism On “Why Chinese Mothers Are Superior”

There's plenty of evidence demonstrating childhood is the best time to extend one's abilities in any field. That is not to say we can't spend a good portion of our adulthood learning how to live a fulfilling life to be the best in something. But, I've seen plenty of 20-30 year olds with no direction in life, and no ability to create meaning in life because they took it easy when they More
