Ex-President Bill Clinton is famous for at least three things. His terrific treatment of women, his difficulty with the definition of very simple words – and his otherwise fluidity with the language when making up things…or pushing his pedestrian Leftism. Clinton is of course a huge fan of racism – oops, I mean affirmative action. […]
Tuesday’s Florida primary delivered a surprise Socialist winner in their Democrat gubernatorial primary. History Is Made! Andrew Gillum Wins Democratic Primary For Florida Governor The history to which this excited-yet-somehow-unbiased headline refers – is Gillum’s melanin count. Gillum is black – and were he to win the general he would be Florida’s first black governor […]
In the great Aaron Sorkin based-upon-real-life movie “Charlie Wilson’s War” there is a brief yet very apt exchange between Texas Representative Charlie Wilson and CIA agent Gust Avrakotos: Wilson: “No, I don’t understand…because I’m stupid.” Avrakotos: “No, you’re not stupid – you’re just in Congress.” In the area of pharmaceuticals and their national and international […]
We here at Less Government acknowledge and appreciate Reality. And we are unfortunately forced to spend a lot of time positively asserting Reality – because so many people steadfastly refuse to accept it. One of these Reality facets – is that “green energy”…is neither green nor energy. It is fake energy – and fake friendly […]
The Supreme Court is currently considering South Dakota v Wayfair. A case debating whether or not state and municipal governments can collect their respective sales taxes – on non-resident business and people who have the temerity to complete a transaction in their jurisdictions. President Donald Trump is on this absolutely correct – in one sense. […]
Maryland has one of our nation’s more oxymoronic state nicknames: “The Free State.” Oxymoronic – because the decades-now Democrat-dominated state legislature has spent their time and legislative effort ensuring that everything in “The Free State”…is inordinately expensive. Most especially government. In 2016, Maryland was the most taxed state in the union. Maryland Democrats are so […]
National Football League (NFL) Commissioner Roger Goodell – has had a bit of a bad decade. (So bad – that his ex-television-news-host wife was caught with a fake Twitter account Tweeting in his defense.) Goodell began this time frame under-reacting to legitimate problems like the New England Patriots’ Spygate. Goodell then woefully mishandled the break […]
Government is awful at doing…just about everything. In no small part because of the rigid, unyielding dictates of human nature. Government, of course, being populated by humans – is not immune to these dictates. Because of government’s susceptibility – there is the Yellow Pages Rule. “What’s ‘Yellow Pages?’” I hear the Millennials ask. Fair enough: […]
One of the very many problems in the festering Swamp that is Washington, D.C. – is the inert posture most of its denizens so often strike. Too many pose and preen – but never actually do anything. Which we rightly, roundly, routinely criticize. So when DC does something well and good – we are obliged […]
The Left and the media (please pardon the redundancy) are endlessly fascinated with so-called “dark money”…on the political Right. And only on the political Right. Wikipedia defines “dark money” as: “In…politics…, dark money are funds given to nonprofit organizations – and include 501(c)(4) (social welfare) 501(c)(5) (unions) and 501(c)(6) (trade association) groups – that can […]
