Since January 8th, I’ve been watching the talking heads and reading the wisdom of the political pundits, along with every straight news story about the events that day at a Tucson, AZ, grocery store, trying to make sense of why Jared Loughner apparently planned and carried out the shootings that killed six people and wounded 13 more.
Josey editorial does little to advance “proper direction”
August 16, 2010
Mr. Josey’s Friday the 13th editorial certainly explains why he interfaces with his “Republican friends” online rather than in person. Face to face, if he comes on the same way as he does in print, I don’t imagine he really has many “friends” in the GOP.

“Taking back America”? Not with 14%…
May 5, 2010
All this loud bluster by Tea Party folks and everybody else about “taking back America” is just a bunch of baloney as long as we can get only 14% of the electorate to the polls to vote in important primary elections.
The other 86% ought to be ashamed that they felt an election wasn’t important enough to take 15 minutes of their time.

What’s Wrong with the Health Care System?
July 30, 2009
I sat in the dermatologist’s office the other day waiting for 56 minutes to get to a treatment room, where I waited another 25 minutes. The next day, I waited over 1½ hours to see my internist. So I’ve had lots of time to think about what’s wrong with the health care system.

McHenry hired gun misses the mark
November 16, 2009
Patrick McHenry has his hired guns out early, as Carlton Huffman—“it is never easy to criticize a fellow Republican”—took a Friday the 13th shot at me, three months before the primary filing period. Huffman signs his letters “Granite Falls,” but he’s been a Washington, DC, political hack for years and has forgotten his Caldwell County values.
