An Open Letter to Romney Voters

http://www.huntsvilleliberty.com

Republican voters accepted Mitt Romney as their nominee, and got what they deserved in the presidential elections. If Republicans want to win, and reduce the size and power of the federal government, they must do what it takes to prevent empty-suited panderers from being nominated in the future, even if it means taking on the GOP establishment.

Kansas man gets life sentence for sex act on baby.

http://bit.ly

Man gets life in prison after repenting for his crime. A Kansas man turned himself in to authorities saying he knowingly committed oral sex on a 4 month old baby. The predator laws in Kansas are some of the strictest in the nation and mandate a life sentence. While the crime is deplorable, should the sentence be lessened because the man admitted his crime to a priest and turned himself in willingly to police?

Italian Scientists Sent To Jail For Failing To Predict Earthquake

http://www.techdirt.com

A year and a half ago, we wrote about some Italian seismologists who were being tried for manslaughter after a risk assessment they wrote up, in which they concluded that a series of small earthquakes along a faultline wasn't that serious, and the risk of a big earthquake was not that high. About a week later, a 6.3 magnitude earthquake struck, destroying a bunch of buildings and killing over 300 people.

We Fund Dependency

http://www.realclearpolitics.com

"There are no jobs!" That is what people told me outside a government "jobs center" in New York City. But, 4 researchers quickly found 40 job openings. So what goes on at these government "job centers?" I asked a college intern, to find out. Her conclusions:
--It's easier to get welfare than to work.
--The government would rather sign me up for welfare than help me find work.
--America has taxpayer-funded bureaucracies that encourage people to be dependent. They incentivize people to take "free stuff," not to take initiative.

http://www.cracked.com

We really don't get enough stories about incompetent soldiers. Think about it: It's a real disservice to war heroes if we never give people anything to compare them to. The very reason bravery and quick wits under fire are to be celebrated is because they're rare.

So let's take a moment to celebrate some of the hilariously stupid shit that goes on in the name of war.

(Another) Example of the US Federal Government Assisting Terrorism

http://www.politicalpwnage.com

Should Congress and the President be in jail? According to the NDAA they should.

Watch as Ben Swann points out how Congress and the President approved funding for Syrian rebels. Problem is: The rebels have direct ties to Al-Qaeda, and the NDAA explicitly states that assisting Al-Qaeda in any way is a criminal offense.

So, how about it? Should the President and most of Congress be in orange jump suits rotting away in Guantanamo Bay for assisting Al-Qaeda?

International Security Assistance Force inadvertently killed 51 Afghans today near the city of Mazar-i-Sharif while attempting to drop candy to a group of children. Approximately 1.4 million M&Ms were to be delivered via Container Delivery System in a single package with a weight of 1500 lbs. Due to a malfunction in the static line, the parachute failed to deploy and the container crashed through the roof of a local school at nearly 100 miles per hour.
