Here come the faux “Conservative” Democrats

With DOOM in November fast approaching, it’s funny seeing Democrats like Gerry Connolly (D-VA) scramble to appear “Conservative”, similar to the ones who just last year wanted to appear “Pro-Life”. Democratic leaders in Congress still back Obama, but the willingness to raise taxes is waning among the rank and file as the stagnant economy threatens […]

Where Does Nebraska Get Its Money?

I don’t know about anyone else, but I am rather shocked to discover that Nebraska receives so very much of its budget from the Federal government. Silly, silly me.

Evidence-based vaccinations: A scientific look at the missing science behind flu season vaccines

As someone with a good deal of education in scientific thinking and the scientific method, I have put considerable effort into attempting to find any real scientific evidence backing the widespread use of influenza vaccines (flu season shots). I find examples of junk science in both the “scientific” side of things as well as the “alternative” side of things.
