TSE Chat Room: @Liltesla And I Create The World’s Next Great Video Game Franchise

Sarah Ruthless: “Out of this war, the greatest since the beginning of history, a new world must be born, a world that would justify the sacrifices offered by humanity. This new world must be a world in which there shall be no exploitation of the weak by the strong, of the good by the evil; [...]

The GOP Looks Through A Fatally Flawed Field To Find A Champion Against Obama

We are just beyond one year from the 2012 United States presidential election, and at this point the cast of characters are essentially set. The combination of time and contenders who have bowed out, have us set with the incumbent Democrat and his main Republican challengers. The Republican field has some returning faces from 2008, [...]

A Man Brilliant For His Simplicity, The World Moves On Without Steve Jobs

Last evening, as I do most Wednesday evenings I had dinner with my parents at their home. We all exchanged stories of our discussions with coworkers about our unfortunate incident with the deer outside of Keystone Heights and my mother discussed issues she was having with her iPhone. All three of us are iPhone owners, [...]

Ronald Reagan Promotes Obama Socialism And Vicious Class Warfare

Dixie Chicks Precedent Means Bocephus Is Clear, Right?

My alma mater is 4-0 and next week the Alabama Crimson Tide come to Ben Hill Griffin Stadium and I’ll be there. The stakes always seem high when these two vanguard programs of the [...]

Have Republicans Finally Realized That There Are No More Taxes To Cut?

Since the time of Ronald Reagan the modern Republican party has slowly reduced their entire political philosophy to a simple creed, lower taxes. Reagan’s successor staked his entire political legacy on his promise to never raise taxes, and when he acted like an adult to address the ever growing deficit problem he was promptly treated [...]

On The Political Exploitation Of 9/11

Yesterday marked the tenth anniversary of the horrific attacks of September 11th 2001, and should have been a quiet day of reflection and prayer. Occurring as it did on a Sunday meant that the day would share a place with God and football, but politics should never have shared the stage with those three. The [...]

Between Political Metaphor And Delicious Victimhood

It’s really telling to me seeing the current conservative uproar over Jimmy Hoffa Jr.’s “take them out” reference to Republicans. If there is something that conservatives love more than Reagan and guns, it’s playing the victim. This is especially surprising to me because these same conservatives were the ones doggedly defending Sarah Palin’s gun-sites over [...]
