A Twitter war blew up the other night – lazy Capitalist that I am, I was laying on the couch, watching a TV show with my husband, so I missed all of the fun and excitement when Hilary Rosen – a highly paid spokesperson for the Democratic Party – temporarily lost her mind and made a bone-headed statement about how Ann Romney – the wife of the presumptive Republican candidate for President – doesn’t understand the plight of the Modern American Woman because Mrs. Romney has “never worked a day in her life”.

Bless her heart.

Many times I find myself starting a blog post, and as I get further into it, it takes on a life of its own and becomes something quite different from what I had originally planned….

….This is one of those posts.

The thing I love about the Internet is that you can just start digging and you never know what you may find. It’s kind of like going to the Public Library and getting lost in the stacks on a rainy afternoon – one thing leads to another, which leads to another, which leads to another, and pretty soon you’re in a completely different part of the building, reading about something that you never realized you were interested in.

For an information junkie like me, the Internet is my “drug” of choice – I can’t get enough of it. Anyway, I thought I’d share some of what I found while I was out spelunking among the pixels and the terrabytes this weekend….

Remy Munasifi hilariously explains the whole problem that people have with Obamacare’s “One Size Fits All” requirement for health insurance:

I really wish someone could explain how INSURANCE works to all of these Democrats; it’s obvious they don’t understand the concept of insurance being a way to manage RISK, not a way to pay for maintenance costs….

Just a quick Obamacare update: apparently yesterday the lawyer who is arguing for Obamacare was arguing that it is a tax; today he will be arguing that it ISN’T a tax:

U.S. Solicitor General Donald Verrilli used the phrase “tax penalty” multiple times to describe the individual mandate’s backstop. He portrayed the fee as a penalty by design, but one that functions as a tax because it’s collected through the tax code.

“General Verrilli, today you are arguing that the penalty is not a tax. Tomorrow you are going to be back and you will be arguing that the penalty is a tax,” said Justice Samuel Alito, in one of the few laugh lines throughout the 90 minutes of argument Monday.

“If I had a son, he’d look like Trayvon,” Obama said Friday.
.

.
Oops. Silly me – that isn’t a picture of Trayvon Martin, that’s a picture of Matthew Bent.

I daresay, Mr. President, that if you did have a son he might just as easily look like young Mr. Bent. According to his mother, Mr. Bent was a good kid – he mowed neighbors’ lawns, volunteered with yard sales at church, did his homework and was an avid basketball player.

Poor little Melissa Horton – she took to the opinion pages of the Washington Post to let the world know that she borrowed money to pay for college, and now she doesn’t want to have to pay it back. Not only is she whining about that, but she has the audacity to insinuate that her parents are liars who are dumber than a sack of rocks.

Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed a very disturbing trend among law school students recently?

I mean, it seems like every time some young advocate gets some face time in front of a camera, he/she is telling the most outrageous stories, and the press just eats it up.

The latest case in point is Ms. Sandra Fluke (rhymes with “luck”), a 3rd-year Law Student at Georgetown University. Ms. Fluke recently testified in front of Nancy Pelosi’s one-woman dog and pony show about why Congress should mandate that all insurance companies provide birth control free of charge.

Sandra Fluke’s parents must be so proud.

On Monday, she went before a House Subcommittee to tell everyone that she has sex. Lots and lots of sex. Why, she has so much sex that it costs her $1000/year to pay for birth control.

And gee willikers, she just can’t afford to pay for that, so she thinks that the American taxpayer should pick up the tab.

I’ll admit that I have always been a bit of an “unconventional” thinker – lots of different things fascinate me. I read articles and books on things that interest me. Sometimes, I end up seeing weird connections – my thinking takes me way off of the beaten path (Paul hates taking me to mystery movies – I almost always figure out whodunnit about 5 minutes into the picture). Today I’m going to invite you to follow me down my rabbit hole…..
