I read a lot stuff that simply makes no sense, and a lot more that calls into question whether some authors realize that the natural implications of what they say contradict other opinions and beliefs they seem to have.

So today's two questions on this subject are:

Globalization and outsourcing have hurt many millions of Americans but the unions have sought to personalize this loss as if it were only hurting their own members when in fact it also has hurt many non-union workers, small businesses and family businesses.

[I wonder if he Weyrich says the same thing to his pro-outsourcing Republican buddies, or to the corporate interests that help support his Christian right endeavors?]

I don't know which Cavuto show it was, or the name of the genius who said it, but I heard a man clearly state on this afternoon's Fux News that it was "immoral" for the U.S. to provide national health care.

Just so you know, here are some figures from the Feb., 2007 Statistical Supplement to the Federal Reserve Bulletin:

I really thought this might be a joke internet story, until I tracked down a NY Times and discovered this piece:

The official line from the US government and the vast majority of American Business leaders is "outsourcing is good for America." The number of games played to provide evidentiary support for such a notion is truly mind boggling (a subject for another post), but reality keeps raising its ugly little head and whispering "psst, buddy, look at all those juicy American jobs heading off to Asia."

Let's have us a clear-cut win come 2008, and what better way than for the Rethuglican Party to nominate a redneck version of Anne Coulter, eh?......

As a rule, I rarely watch TV. Rarely. But, I was intrigued by this piece they ran on CBS' 60 Minutes last night, which I detailed a little earlier, about how our nation's chief financial controller says Medicare will wipe us out...

Okay, I was reading something by Glenn Beck the other day and it struck me how similar his shtick and his psyche are to the many other ranting righters on the air.  Which led to some more thought and a little investigation into the some of the other personality traits and behaviors members of this breed of "conservative" have in common.
