I Carry A Gun Because A Cop Is Too Heavy

Mar 20, 2008 - 11:03 pm

There is a lot of emotion tied up in the handgun debate, specifically when and where owners should be allowed to carry them.

I’m just gonna ramble a little, inspired by the fact that on Wednesday of this week, State House Speaker (why? someone tell me why??) Naifeh cast the deciding “no” vote (in subcommittee) on three separate bills that would have allowed Tennesseans with carry permits to take their handgun into bars, state parks and college campuses.

Divided We Fail

Mar 20, 2008 - 10:03 pm

I just saw that tv commercial for an organization called Divided We Fail.  I had an interesting conversation with the ad.

When they spoke of problems with the health care situation in the country, they urged the viewer (that’s me) to write my Senators and Congressmen and tell them to DO SOMETHING about the health care problems.

What?, I shouted in return.  Something is messed up so you want me to ask the GOVERNMENT to fix it??  Are you insane?

The Issue Finally Becomes An Issue

Mar 19, 2008 - 11:03 pm

May I just take a moment to say “Ah Ha!”
On January 23rd, I wrote “Exactly how uncomfortable are you with Obama’s religiosity?  (He)  says, in reference to the reverend at his church, that he is “…provocative in ways that I’m not always comfortable with and in ways that I deeply disagree with occasionally…Is his response too mild?“

Illegal Immigration - Sense and Nonsense

Mar 12, 2008 - 10:03 pm

Since no reasonable solution to the problem of illegal immigration appears forthcoming on the national level (unless our elected reps suddenly inexplicably get wise and give Heath Shuler’s proposal the go-ahead), it falls to the states to do something.

And in Tennessee, they actually might. 

Do something, I mean.

Go figure.
