Born Under A Bad Sign

July 31, 2008 — adc

One of my all time favorite blues tunes. Here’s Cream, who does my favorite recording (though I wish you could hear the drum track better in this recording)

But this post would be a worthless pile without the master – Albert King:

Be sure not to miss the moron dancing at about 4:10…HAHAHA!!!

Appeal To Heaven

IN CONGRESS, JULY 4, 1776

Adc: Hands down, this is my favorite of the American founding documents: The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal [...]

Answering the President on Public vs. Private Healthcare

The New York Times’ Paul Krugman just posted this: The president is making sense Ezra Klein and Matthew Yglesias both catch President Obama making sense on the public option: QUESTION: Wouldn’t that drive private insurance out of business? OBAMA: Why would it drive private insurance out of business? If private insurers say that the marketplace provides […]

America and the Allies, fought to free the world from Tyranny – 65 years ago today

Here’s the documentary titled We Stand Alone Together from the special features of my all-time favorite WWII series, Band of Brothers. These are the comments from the men of Easy Company (in 8 segments): Part 1: Part 2: Part 3: Part 4: Part 5: Part 6: Part 7: Part 8:

Prager University: America’s Values

Dennis Prager’s latest endeavor, Prager University, has just launched one of it’s initial segments. It is a brief, though thorough, explanation of what is unique about American values. Watch below: I have only a couple quick thoughts on this video. First, Prager mentions ‘Inalienable’ Rights – when the Declaration of Independen […]

Milton Friedman: “Government becoming our Master, rather than our Servant” -on Donahue, 1980

What I like about Friedman, was how positively and reasonably he presented his arguments. They are worth listening to and considering, even if you disagree.

Who Doesn’t Want Fuel Efficient Cars?

President Barack Obama will announce plans on Tuesday for a national fuel-economy and greenhouse-gas standard for automobiles in an effort to give more certainty to car companies as they struggle for survival.

Live Free or Die, by Mark Steyn

My note: It isn’t my intent to continually flog one person’s opinion. However, given that Mark Steyn’s America Alone is on my “Top Five Books Everyone Ought to Read” list, his recent article at Hillsdale College does a excellent job summarizing his book. Below is his full article titled: Live Free or Die -Reprinted by permission […]

Three Reasons Everyone Should Watch HBO’s John Adams

Frankly, these may be considered *spoilers,* so consider yourself forewarned. Still, there is much more to this series than what you will see below. Now, admittedly – I haven’t read the book by David McCullough yet, but I’d still submit that Paul Giamatti’s Adams, is outstanding, (as is Steven Dillane’s Jefferson). Do yourself a […]

Health Care: Economic Reality vs. Political Capital

This just in from Politico: People who like the tax-free status of their company health benefits could be asked to ante up. Money in the pot: more than $700 billion over 10 years. Treasure the tax benefits from your health savings account? Some experts say the accounts encourage “excess consumption” of health services… … “I know that there is som […]
