Kennedy Skips Out On Own NAACP Award

Friday, October 14th, 2011

It’s not everyday I attend anything held by the NAACP.  I am not a fan of their politics and I personally think they have gotten away from empowering African-Americans and towards promoting policies and programs that make Blacks more dependent on government.  With that said, I am not above accepting an invitation from a friend […]

Tuesday, October 11th, 2011

The problem with quoting statistics during an election year is that they can change at the drop of a hat depending on a particular point in time.  For example, did the city lose 35,000 jobs since January 2008 or has it  gained 12,000 jobs since January 2011?   Are aggravated assaults up 10% since 2007 or […]

Columbus Day Humor

Monday, October 10th, 2011

My analysis of the Occupy Indy group is posted on our sister blog, IndyPolitics.Org. I argue the Occupy Indy/Wall Street crowd and the Tea Party movement are really two sides of the same political coin.  I decided to use today, Columbus Day, to share a little humor.  I still don’t see why Christopher Columbus gets […]
