John, is "Accidental College" your invention for Obama's questionable credentials, or was that your funny spell checker again? Either way, I kind of like the name change and it certainly fits.

I point you to a column I recently wrote on my blog site: http://whenilk.blogspot.com/2013/02/oil-forever-revisited-revised.html I am of the firm opinion that petroleum and natural gas are not in danger of depletion. Both can be found in abundance in all areas of the earth, which disproves any notion that they are "fossil fuels." Read both columns, including the linked first one, and see what you think.

I've often wondered how anticipated tax refunds affect government spending... 1. Politicians never saw a dollar they couldn't spend, and 2. The average tax refund is now over $3,000 for 59 million individual filers. Those two facts multiply up to $177 billion dollars of interest-free revenue for the federal government to spend every year. And when they eventually pa it back during tax season, it has the effect of doubling the debt by spending more dollars we really don't have anymore. Wake up. people! Stop overpaying your already high taxes to con yourself into thinking you get a refund every year, so "you don't pay taxes; the government pays you."

The economy of my present home city, Augusta, Georgia, is heavily dependent on the activity at Fort Gordon. Sequester, if and when it happens, will cripple this entire metropolitan area, as several thousand civilian contractors at the fort will be out of work, some permanently. Even if congress and the president eventually agree on spending cuts after sequestration, some of the jobs at Fort Gordon will never come back. This city will wither up and die, and the one week of Masters golf per year won't be enough to save it.

Flubadub, it isn't the mothers who are eating their babies... It's those mean fathers who don't want to support their kids, er, cubs. You sexist! Actually, there are many species in nature in which the adult males attempt to kill their offspring. We're one of them, after all.

Maybe it's time we stop giving Washington our hard-earned dollars in excess so that we can "think" we got a huge tax refund gift every year. After all, politicians never met a dollar they couldn't spend. We keep overpaying taxes by Billions annually, only to see them spent with no collateral to back them up. Read and pass along to your spendthrift kids and friends my advice on how to pay taxes the right way. http://www.whenilk.blogspot.com/

No, no, no! Remember that we are forbidden to assume anything of the kind. Now C'mon, be fair!

Every single act of "gun violence" in schools since 1995, here and in other countries around the world, has been committed by someone either on anti-depressant drugs, or in a withdrawal phase from anti-depressant drugs. It also applies to "gun violence" in malls, theaters, restaurants and work places. Maybe it's time we ban anti-depressant drugs instead of banning guns.

There is already a House Joint Resolution before the 113th Congress - H. J. R. 15 - calling for the repeal of the 22nd Amendment limiting the terms of the president. We might look for 8-12 more years of this tyranny. http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/113/hjres15/text
