500 unionists destroy rail yard property, take hostages
Sep 10th
And people wonder why I’m so concerned about what Jimmy Hoffa Jr said at the Labor Day rally. So a mob of 500+ union thugs illegally stormed a yard in the middle of the night, held hostages for several hours, damaged buildings they do not own, destroyed grain they do not own, and damaged rail…
On unions, Hoffa and the President
Sep 8th
Wow… Things are getting bad in the US and its not even election year yet. Less than 3 years after being sworn in, Obama and his cronies are starting to talk about war and “taking the SOB’s out” when referring to the grass roots movement known as the Tea Party.

Looks like the backlash against unions is spreading. Unions take your money and use it against you unless you give them more of your money. People are sick of being told what to do and how to do it.
Alan Keyes rips into Obama
Mar 23rd
Quite aside from the constitutional questions regarding Barack Obama’s place of birth, the economic statements from Alan Keyes in this video are very true and something I have been arguing for a long time. You cannot buy debt with money that doesn’t exist! You cannot simply turn around and print a whole heap of paper…

Okay, I admit this is a week old. In my defense its been a pretty busy week since I first saw it on Bloomberg and wanted to discuss it. The draft has been screaming at me every time I open the blog. However, age doesn’t make it less relevant. In fact, its one of those…

Another Waitangi Day
Feb 6th
Happy Waitangi Day, or whatever they call it now days. I guess this will mean nothing to anyone not from New Zealand, or not having spent more than a few years living here. Mostly because this is a missive about Waitangi and the views I have on such a historic and divisive day in our…
Please learn the history of the Middle East

There are massive arguments happening right across the web about the Hamas vs Israel conflict. Well, actually its become more of a “who can shout the loudest” match than anything else really. The ignorance of people in this matter really bothers me though. In less than 100 years people appear to have all but forgotten…
Hamas no better than Hitler’s Nazis

Warning: What follows is rather angry and contains foul language. I’m sick of this Israel bashing. Come on, get a grip people. How would you react if I came to your property, stood on one side of the fence and started throwing sticks of dynamite into the yard as your children played? How about if…
