Nightly Ramble:Turn Right Edition

  • ramble-turn-right [1]Ayn Rand Interview: Boortz, today, runs an Ayn Rand interview [2]from 1959 with Mike Wallace of all folks.
  • Obama loses another six polling points:  So says CBS [3]. All in the last month, yet. Given it’s CBS, I figure we’re not being given the half of how bad the falloff is.
  • China has banned electroshock therapy for internet addiction:  Well, that’s comforting. [4]
  • Why keep it from the Democrats? The answer’s simple, really.  William Teach explains [5]. He’s right, of course.
  • A tacit admission the Stimulus didn’t work:  Obama now says [6]Unemplyment will continue to go up for several months. We’re now at 9.5% unemployment and rising. Remember we were told that all this spending of borrowed money would keep us under 6%?
  • Another Oil discovery: In North Dakota [7]. We’re moving off the stuff why, again?
  • Sotomayor Day II: I wonder, sometimes about the fulitlity of all this [8]. I mean, is there a hope in hell that she’s nt going to get confirmed, given the makeup of the Senate?  Other than going through the motions, what is the point? I know, gotta be done, but damn…
  • If TOTUS falls in a forest, does anyone notice?  Apparently. [9] 
  • Madoff slammed: Started that 150 year sentence today [10]. Which means with time off for good behavior, he’ll be paroled in three to five.
  • Florida killings: Something smells, here. [11]Large families like this one aren’t known for being overly rich. So why the huge planning and a military style attack? The haul isn’t worth the effort, one would think, unless they had a lot more money than we’re being told, or revenge was a motive.
