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.

Misguided recession talk. Tamny at NRO. I am a recession skeptic, but I am always a skeptic about most everything. Including my own opinions.

The MSM always talks as if the Clintons were married. Why do they do that? They do not live together in the same house, and Bill does whatever he wants. (h/t, Dr. Sanity) Is that a marriage?

There is no global warming in the southern hemisphere.

Thompson: "I'm skipping NH." I do not understand the Fred campaign.

Kim for President! His stump speech.

A Letter to the Editor of the NYT which you will not read there.

"The Left’s belief in the helplessness of the poor is a self-fulfilling prophecy." Dalrymple at City Journal

Woops. Revising the sea-level rise emergency. Besides, apparently it's been rising slowly for 8000 years, probably because of Fred Flintstone's SUV. h/t, Junk Science

I looked down, and there it was. Sippican

Re: Thompson

Me thinks, Fred doesn't dance with cross dressers.
