Potpourri

==> David R. Henderson on the Nobel. ==> When reading posts like this from Bryan, I wonder if he hands out the syllabus on the first day of class that just says “YOU WILL GET NOTHING FROM THIS CLASS” at the top. ==> MoveOn.org starts a petition to arrest Republicans in Congress for sedition. I’m […]

Paul Ryan, Draconian Budget Slasher?

I just did a podcast with James Delingpole (yes, the climate change guy) and he had mentioned that we might discuss Paul Ryan’s budget. Turns out we didn’t talk about Ryan specifically, but here was the point I was going to make: Go to the actual budget proposal [.pdf] (so no fear that we’re relying […]

Jason Rink Gave the Boldest Tea Party Speech yesterday

Wow. I really hope somebody caught it on video and this ends up on YouTube. The guy before me yesterday (at the Cincinnati Tea Party at Fifth Third Arena) was Jason Rink. I don’t want to spoil it. You won’t believe what he said to those people. And keep in mind, during the pre-game show […]
