Yeah, thanks. I know what it is, I just think it's really funny that it's been a position since 2011 and it's just now that people are going bat crap crazy over it. It's a pure political position, designed solely to combat Obama's critics, funded by taxpayer dollars. If you read his blog, he...

What's that guy's title at the White House again?

Chicago to Calexico, where they indeed have palm trees, and plenty of degrees.

It's the newspaper of the Unification Church, aka, Moonies.

The text on that picture makes no sense. Everything mentioned, on the top and the bottom, is unnatural. No bigotry involved. The question becomes which of the things mentioned benefit society at large and help ensure the survival of the species. The things mentioned at the bottom do, the thing...

Not sure which is funnier, that it's a link to the Washington Times, or that someone thinks Matt Drudge is simply a private citizen.

No it can't, because I heavily qualified it by saying "I personally..." So, no, I can't say the very same thing about the NYT. I commented that regular, traditional news outlets weren't reporting this story and RLENT disagreed, citing the fact that the Washington Times had an article on it, and...

Obama is proposing to completely overhaul the NSA's phone collection process. Overhaul, completely, he says. He proposes that instead of collecting everything and holding onto it all for 5 years, that they collect everything and hold onto it for 18 months. Because that's way different. In a...

I don't know what others think, all I know is that I personally don't consider the Washington Times a reliable news source that I can rely on to be honest and accurate about what they are reporting.

I dunno, maybe. But considering who founded the Washington Times, and who they are owned by and are so closely aligned with, I'm not sure I'd put the NYT, WaPo or any other MSM newspaper outlet in the same category. At least the others will, at least sometimes, make the attempt to pretend to be...

I'm not as quick to dismiss any story just because the messenger is a less-than reputable nutjob. The source is certainly something to consider, and can contextually color what they say, but it's the information they convey that's most important. I'm also not as quick to consider the Washing...

The tallest man in the room, coyly pretending not to watch the basketball highlights on the screen behind him.

Both inaccurate and misleading, but I'm not sure sure that either of those is evidenced by the reporting done by actual news organizations. Real, actual news organizations aren't reporting it at all, far as I can tell. That's not evidence of inaccuracy or being misleading, though. The story may...

They've been in edited reruns for nearly two years.

Not only electronic, but some cities, LA and Chicago for sure and probably many others, are tracking your location by using your license plate. They reason that ALL vehicles, under suspicion or not, is under investigation. Basically, they have a gazillion cameras and the cameras are taking...

Also, if you have an AC that the generator will otherwise run but won't start it because of the initial power surge, you can add a simple "hard start capacitor" (sometimes known as a "soft start kit) to the AC unit and solve that problem. The specs will give you the "Compressor Locked Rotor...

I was gonna shut it down, but I also knew that a couple of miles up the road it was clear and dry and sunny. The lake effect snow was extremely isolated, almost cartoonish. So it was just 20 MPH, Slow and Steady.

There was a little lake effect snow this morning under Lake Michigan. Last 5 miles of I-65 and then on I-80 almost over to Lake Station turned the roads into a sheet of ice. There were more cars spun out on the side of the road and slammed into the concrete median than there were still on the...

Lynchburg to Beloit, where there are no palm trees, and not nearly enough degrees.

Not really sure what that has to do with the price of tea in China, but OK, you're right, I have said that, sort of, because it's true. I don't recall ever saying they change "to keep up with the times," although that is more or less what happens. But definitions change over time, usually...
