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.

National (single-payer) Lawn Care: An Immigration Solution

Is "non-partisan" ACORN working for Obama? They even say they are. That's our tax dollars. Here's the Mickey Mouse registration. These people are shameless.

Why government health care won't reduce employers' costs

Jesse ("Hymietown") Jackson: Obama will get the "Zionists" out of government. More: Time for the Jews to move aside. The Jews are the problem, aren't they? Surely not the dysfunctional, self-destructive and hate-filled Palestinians.

Obama's already in an 8th Grade textbook. That's "audacity."

Obama funneled money to Afrocentric anti-American extremists. Well I'll be doggoned. Related: How Obama sold out education to "the Revolution."

Shelby Steele on minority groupthink

Here's a guy I would vote for.

Did Bill Ayers ghostwrite Obama's books?

WaPo: McCain is a right-wing extremist. I wish.

For McCain, it's the times, not the man. Same thing for Obama, I think.

I see this WaPo: McCain is a right-wing extremist. I wish.
and remember my father saying that Goldwater wasn't conservative enough.
I have the same feeling but, much more so.

Where do I sign up for National Lawn Care? Call me Bernadine Arnold, but I am into that.

Worst case scenario if the Dalibama wins, all conservatives move to Canada. The Conservatives just won the elections up there. If all U.S. conservatives move up there we could solidify Canada as a conservative state. Pretty country with plenty of natural resourses. We could take Alaska with us. Its not a big move for New Englanders. Just cross that tiny line north of Vt, NH, and Maine.

Sean ... the conservatives in Canada may have won some elections recently, but they seem to be having a problem with free speech -- the Mark Steyn/MacLeans magazine thing. Both were sued by a recent law-school graduate of Mid-Eastern extraction, supported and funded by the Canadian version of CAIR, for speaking rudely about Muslims. Cost lots of money and time, but Steyn/MacLean's seem to have won in that particular province. Unfortunately, Muslims in all of the other provinces can also sue too, and probably will. Good-bye Canadian free speech.

Still sure you want to move to Canada?

Heck no, I don't want to move to Canada. They talk funny, eh. My point, absurd as it might be, is for all US conservatives to move to Canada and tilt their politics solidly conservative. we'd then do away with any PC laws and reconstitute something akin to the US Constitution. We'd also have to do away with that " God save the Queen " jibberish. I'd keep the Mounties. They're cool.

And whatsup with this liter stuff when you have to buy gas. We'd have to do away with the metric system. And why is gas so expensive when you have so much and so few cars? Cause they're exporting to the US. Snuff that when we leave. 50 cents a gallon in the United Provences of Canada when we take over. By the way, the French in Quebec will have to go back to France or New Orleans. Pussies. And when we leave the US, the nukes come with us. Freaken libs don't want them anyway. Another bunch of pussies.
