Big Brother is watching you, with a warrant. The Supreme Court ruled the cops can’t plant a GPS device on your car without one. However, the NYT tells us, you can be your own big bro for only $300.

The federal debt now equals 100% of GDP. It’s been 1000 days since the Senate last passed a budget. The president never mentioned Obamacare, or the Keystone Pipeline. I want my Mitch Daniels!

Green Finger

This cartoon was drawn in 2004 by my nephew, Matt Carey. Matt passed away last week. He was 30 years old. He leaves behind a beautiful baby daughter, Ellie, wife, Kimberly, and stepdaughter, Whitney.

While at the University of Kentucky Matt drew cartoons for the student newspaper, the Kentucky Kernel. He was a good cartoonist and hoped to make a living at his craft but held a real job as a hedge.

The family suspected Matt would be a cartoonist when, at a young age, he painted his little brother Jimmy green. Jimmy laughed.

Christopher Hitchens, RIP

Posted by: Bok | Comments (0)

My favorite atheist has moved on to meet his maker. He deserves extra credit for his independent mind, brilliant wit, courage, and humanity.

Here’s  a link, sent by another Hitchens fan, to a speech he made to the Christian Academy in Texas.

“Take the risk of thinking for yourself, much more happiness, truth, beauty, and wisdom will come to you that way.”

The National Transportation Safety Board wants cell phones banned in cars – except for devices built into the car by the manufacturer. Ron Paul objects by pointing out the constitution has nothing to say about cell phones or cars.

The Night They Tore the Lampposts Down

Posted by: Bok | Comments (0)

A ten year old boy was raped and students rioted…because coach Paterno was fired.  In a show of balance, they held a candlelight vigil for the victims on Friday.  Nothing was burned down.

As I type this I’m watching the Nebraska and Penn State teams gather in prayer before the start of Saturday’s game.

I thought this column by the Washington Post’s Tom Boswell was best.
