Mississippi’s Crony Capitalism Under Microscope

fitsnews — Mon, 20 May 2013 16:49:00 +0000

Like South Carolina, Mississippi is populated disproportionately with dumb as dirt, overweight, flat broke mouth breathing government dependents too stupid to realize how colossally their “Republican” government is giving them the shaft.

David Boaz at The Cato Institute makes an interesting point this week about the extent to which “Republicans” campaigning for higher office in the state of Virginia are adopting positions on social issues that could prove very costly to their electability. “Last week I reported that 40 percent of Virginia Republicans – and 56 percent of independents [...]

fitsnews — Mon, 20 May 2013 12:17:09 +0000

Eager to insulate U.S. President Barack Obama against the fallout from multiple scandals (IRS, USDOJ and Benghazi), one of his top former advisors is offering up an interesting excuse. David Alexrod, Obama’s former senior strategist, claims the reason Obama is unable to sufficiently keep tabs on all the corruption in Washington, D.C. these days is because … wait for [...]

Last November, when the Powerball jackpot climbed above $500 million, we wrote a post entitled “Buy Your Tickets, Mouth Breathers!” Suffice it to say, we’re not big on the whole mega-jackpot craze – in which mostly poor people (i.e. government dependents) blow their modest means on this government-run scam, with the vast majority of the proceeds [...]

The state of Maryland passed a knee-jerk gun control law last week making it extremely difficult for one of its most loyal employers to do business within its borders.
