Facts Don?t Alter Some Liberals? Anti-Conservative Prejudices
2009-04-22 22:40:00 There are days when our critics do our work for us. By their very words, they discredit their own criticism (in some cases, criticism is a euphemism for what might more accurately be called name-calling). In reply to my post on how some on the left go through life with blinders on making it tough for ...

When Up Against the Wall on Facts?.Play the Race Card
2009-03-09 23:07:00 Why does CNBC allow someone to come on and spewnonsense? That is the case of the below video clip. [flash http://plus.cnbc.com/rssvideose-arch/action/player/id/105689665-4/code/cnbcplayershare] What is the issue? Stopping the corporate practice of firing Americans and replacing those U.S. workers with cheaper foreign guest workers. There is a fundamental divide where the issue is not immigration but simply a global cheap labor supply. That divide in immigration of any kind is when new workers are not in addition to but in place of. It's clear from this rant Wadhwa doesn't want that differentiation to be even realized. Vivek Wadhwa literally comes on this segment, with incredible fear mongering, mis-categorizes temporary foreign guest worker Visas as immigrants and also implies all of America are a bunch of xenophobes. Literally! This is the most idiotic rhetoric we've heard to date. Fortunately Dr. Ron Hira was the other guest. Hira patiently tries to present the facts o...

Facts of Purim

2009-02-28 07:00:00 A state of emergency is declared in California, with an “official” unemployment rate over 10%, and tens of thousands of growing, desperate people maxing out services.

Fast facts about your body
2009-02-27 17:06:00 Some more fun facts, you just gotta love em :-) From the page: Hiccups happen when the diaphragm, the muscle that controls our breathing, becomes irritated and start to spasm and contract uncontrollably. With each contraction, air is pulled into the lungs very quickly, passes through the voice box, and then the epiglottis closes behind the rush of air, shaking the vocal chords, causing the "hic" sound. The irritation can be caused by rapid eating, emotional stress and even some diseases. The best cure? Breathing into a paper bag. This calms the diaphragm by increasing the amount of carbon dioxide in your bloodstream. The length from your wrist to your elbow is the same as the length of your foot. Your heart beats 101,000 times a day. During your lifetime it will beat about 3 billion times and pump about 400 million litres (800 million pints) of blood. Your mouth produces 1 litre (1.8 pints) of saliva a day."Read More...
