Funneling Non-Profit Money To Progressive Causes Through Robo-Voting

Another Democrat Vote Buying Program Goes Bankrupt:

The ERRP program, to give money to seniors wasn’t supposed to go bankrupt until 2014, after the election. Oops. A pity that all these government programs always cost more than projected, isn’t it?

Pure Jealousy: Falklands Oil Strike Infuriurates Argentina

It turns out the islands have even more oil than previously thought – and now Argentina wants the islands even more, even though the Islanders themselves don’t want to belong to Argentina.

Why Are We Nominating Romney Again?

I see that he’s just come back out on top in Iowa, according to Rasmussen. And the NRO is trying to say no to Gingrich and Perry (anybody but Romney)…while Intrade currently shows Romney with the nod at a 67% chance.

Why is he so electable again? The man has only ever won one race, in Massachusetts, and it was as much do to his opponent’s incompetent campaign as anything else. Do you honestly think Obama is going to run an incompetent campaign?

I’m not saying we should nominate Gingrich – but compared to Romney, Gingrich has a record as a master politician who’s actually trimmed government, reformed welfare, defeated socialized medicine plans, and balanced the budget. Romney has proudly stood by Romneycare, lost most of the political races he’s ever entered – and yet it’s Gingrich who’s being attacked by Glenn Beck while Romney gets the support of the NRO. Does this make sense to anyone?

What Happens When A State Grants A Monopoly On An Industry?

Butter costs $500 a pound in Norway.

Note that it’s purely the fault of the state. Without state enforcement, other producers would be able to import or create butter, and the price would drop.
