Reason #13

I already have supporters.  I got one vote this year.  I just need 100Million more!

Reason #12

I should be President because I understand value creation.  Taxpayers pay for their government to act in a way that creates value for them.  Gone will be the days where a little extra money buys you a little more influence in government.  Yay!

Reason #11

I read an article in yesterday’s New York Times about our military that concerns me.  While I am typically an ardent supporter of the first amendment, this article could be getting our soldiers killed.  The information is highly detailed with units and names and locations and, in my opinion, the kind of information that should [...]

Reason #10

Being a pragmatist, I am just not convinced that bailouts like this, this, and this are a good idea.  Don’t get me wrong, I certainly understand the impact of the business failure of any one of our Big 3 automakers on our economy, but how does a bailout hold them accountable for their failure to [...]

Reason #9

We have to bluntly and seriously address the issue of education.  Forgive me but I’ve been reading academic research this morning and getting angry.  The system of education here is rotten from the bottom to the top.  At the top you have academics more concerned with research volume – to the point where nearly 10% [...]

Reason #8

This national blog post month is getting old.  I’m tired of this blogging already!  Why do I do this to myself.  I want to apologize for yesterday’s post, by the way.  It was just one of the many very long days I’ve had lately and I vented my frustrations on the blog before drowning them [...]

Reason #7

I think I should be President because I’d do a better job at that than I do blogging.  I had hoped this blog theme could be funny but I’m watching my blog stats hit the toilet.  Ask me some policy questions why don’t you?  Oh wait…
No one’s reading.

Reason #6

I believe in full disclosure.  Yes, I’ve tried marijuana and I’ve inhaled.  Didn’t do a damn thing for me and haven’t even been willing to consider using any since high school.  However, that being said, I favor legalizing marijuana because it’s really no more harmful than other tobacco and, like other tobacco, we could then [...]

Reason #5

November 5, 2008 | Comments Off

I hate pork – in the figurative sense.  I promise I will thoroughly examine every bill that crosses my desk and if one single unrelated thing is contained in the bill I’ll veto it.  If we’re talking roads, let’s talk roads.  If we’re talking defense, let’s talk defense.  If Congress puts one single thing unrelated [...]

Reason #4

November 4, 2008 | 1 Comment

Shall we talk about Defense?  It’s no secret that I’m a battle-scarred military spouse (but not one of THOSE kind of spouses – no victim, no poor-me here) and I’ve got some strong ideas about our military and how it should be run. 
First I advocate mandatory national public service.  It works so well in so [...]
