Reagan: Worst President Ever?Probably not, but this guy makes an interesting case for reevaluating Ronald Reagan's legacy. He also takes a look at a few earlier presidents, Nixon, Carter and Ford with a few surprising findings.

I've been saying for a number of years now what I believe the solution to the gay marriage problem that keeps coming up here in California is. I've said it in a number of private and semi public forums, but I guess I should just own it right out here.The most obvious answer to me is to just not have marriage at all. No separate but equal provisions, no "one man, one woman" marriage and "

The thing that I dislike most is her attempt to keep her family "off limits" (her pregnant daughter) while using her soldier son (who just happens to be leaving on 9/11?) as fodder for her campaign. I'm also not so sure about how she treats her newborn - it seems like he's front and center every time there's a photo op too.Gotta love Jon Stewart. I

i love this cartoon:Especially in light of McCain's latest attack ad on Obama. He draws some pretty silly conclusions - Higher Taxes, More Government - means Fewer Jobs. I seem to remember that the New Deal started off with a few of those things, but ended up providing *more* jobs. Of course, that's only relevant if you believe that Obama is going to do those things.Republican economic policy

Modern-Day Martin Luther Nails 95 Comment Cards To IHOP Door: "'IHOP has grown weak on powdered sugar and fruity garnishes, forsaking the righteousness of its original rib-sticking mission,' said Lyman, who nailed his 95 comments to the door shortly before the morning brunch rush, when they would receive maximum exposure. 'This house is no longer a house of pancakes—it is a house of lies.'"I

Buried in all this is a great point.Deep in this article is a great point:"Some critics invoke a Hollywood analogy: If audiences of record-breaking size were lining up to see the latest Harry Potter film, would hard-pressed theater owners then slash ticket prices in half to lure customers?"I'm much more interested in reading the seventh book than I am in seeing the fifth movie.

Do you feel safer now, than before we invaded Iraq?: "'The DOD can't tell us how well the Iraqis perform their missions or even plan them,' he said in an interview. 'The police are in particularly bad shape, although they are critical to counterinsurgency.'The lack of transparency is especially worrisome, the report said, because of the possibility that Iraqi forces trained and equipped by the

On Youth"Our youth now loves luxuries. They have bad manners, contempt for authority. They show disrespect for elders and they love to chatter instead of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants, of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room.
