Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

Thursday Links

Very cool. Photos of jets breaking the sound barrier. It creates a strange cloud. Never Yet Melted

Whooping Cranes on the upswing. One grand species saved by human ingenuity. Am. Thinker

Doesn't want his culture destroyed by immigrants. Tangled Web. Who would, if you value your culture, that is? Didn't nations historically resist invasion for that reason?

Reason # 546 never to take Paul Krugman seriously. Right Wing News. The guy writes like a purely partisan, dishonest moron. Which is why he got the job, one must imagine, instead of me.

German-American comfort food, from food blogger Right Wing Nation. We like to think that all of that fat just smooths the lining of our arteries.

Why is "the world's wealth" in the hands of a small number of people? Lib. Leanings on Sowell's piece.   It's all about the culture.

John Edwards enters the race. John who? But how embarassing to have this on Youtube. Gateway

Awaiting news of Tony Blair's conversion to Islam. LGF
