No Wonder Obama Can’t Get Up On That High Horse

Posted by on

And lest we get on our high horse and think this is unique to some other place, remember that leftists and Progressives:

  • Instituted policies resulting in 50,000,000 deaths in China under Mao
  • Instituted policies resulting in 20,000,000 deaths under Stalin
  • Instituted policies resulting in 1,700,000 deaths under Pol Pot
  • Instituted policies resulting in the deaths of countless unborn babies
  • Engaged in diplomacy that allowed Hitler to consolidate power and start WWII
  • Instituted policies which resulted in the sick and the elderly dying while waiting for their free care to arrive
  • Instituting policies to ban DDT, resulting in the deaths of millions of African children annually from malaria
  • Instituting policies to ban GMO crops, resulting in the starvation of millions of Africans annually

Yeah, I can see how he wouldn’t get too worked up about a few beheadings.

How About We Just Tax Fatheads Instead?

So now it has been revealed that Jon Gruber proposed even more social engineering by taxing things he doesn’t like, namely plus-sized people. Well, I can be a social engineer too. I’ve got some things I’d like to levy an exorbitant tax on as well:

  • Ivory towers
  • Liberal guilt
  • Science! mingled with politics
  • Diet soda
  • Solar power
  • Hippies (taxes can be waived if they agree to a properly administered punching)
  • Government subsidies
  • Carbon credits
  • Windmills
  • Hipsters
  • Organic food
  • Unions
  • Signing up at Healthcare.gov
  • Seattle
  • Endangered species
  • Politicians
  • Knee jerk accusations of racism
  • Bureaucrats
  • Journalists (taxed by the lie)
  • The Screen Actors’ Guild
  • Abortions
  • Turkey bacon
  • Atheists
  • Degrees that don’t prepare students for careers
  • Illegal aliens
  • Social engineers
  • Voting present
  • Voting to raise taxes
  • Narcissists with a Messiah complex

Random Thoughts: Religious Beliefs and Neil deGrasse Tyson

Posted by on

So was it bad religious beliefs or bad economics beliefs (i.e. Communism) that led to more people being murdered last century?

If all the major news anchors are known liars, I think that will actually make us smarter about news consumption.

A lot of Neil deGrasse Tyson’s twitter feed just reads like a dumb guy trying to sound smart.

Wow. Some people get mad if you criticize Neil deGrasse Tyson. Aren’t there more worthy scientists to mindlessly leap to the defense of?

I honestly understand more why I’ve heard of Lena Dunham than why I’ve heard of Neil deGrasse Tyson.

All I know about Tyson is he has some sort of relation to science. Or to Science!

Tyson seems to have a following among not very bright people who are quite enthusiastic about what they imagine science is.

None of this is to claim Tyson isn’t smart or that he isn’t really good at… whatever it is he does.

I’m pretty comfortable with the fact that when someone is talking about violent Christians, they’re usually talking about 1000 years ago.

Today is casting for a script I helped write. That is going to be a brand new experience.

I’m okay with how I’m the one who handles the trash cans every week because then I get to growl, “Time to take out the trash.”
