• Sons of Liberty

  by ThoughtsAloud ◄Dave► May 27
  Forgive me; but trying to reformat a standard HTML blog post to make it work here on this site, drives me to distraction. I seldom bother to try anymore; but I have a novel idea to share, that some hereabouts might be interested in pursuing. It is published at: http://tspeak.us/sons-of-liberty/ ...

• The Gospel According to Dave

  by ThoughtsAloud ◄Dave► March 11
  The Gospel According to Dave: “Do Right – and Leave Others Be.”Try to imagine a world organized on that simple principle. What if insufferable busybodies were not accorded respect, solely on their public displays of compassion or piety? What if the passion for one’s own wor...

• Liberty vs. Piety

  by ThoughtsAloud ◄Dave► March 8
  Much is made in conservative political discussions, of our inalienable natural rights to Life, Liberty, and Property. The right to Property is central to our conflict with the Politically Correct altruists on the Left, over their egalitarian ‘social justice’ agenda. They claim the moral ...

• Imprecise Language

  by ThoughtsAloud ◄Dave► February 7
  Imprecise language fostered by Progressives, is carelessly repeated so often among conservatives that it is driving me nuts. Thus, I have vowed to make a nuisance of myself highlighting such occurrences, in hopes of raising general awareness of the issue. Our Constitution 'gives' us no rights or fre...

• Good News - for some...

  by ThoughtsAloud ◄Dave► December 9, 2012
  Last night, Hank Adams and I were in a discussion on his blog post, when suddenly he went into a battle with Leslie. I couldn't see what she was doing to him, but he claimed she had deleted one of his posts, and I didn't even know she was a moderator. I haven't seen her on here in months. Suddenly, ...

  ...Chew on this Video: Well done, Sir; I concur 100%... Too bad the State Department isn't spending $70K to broadcast this on Pakistani TV, instead of the insipid apologies from the Apologist-in-Chief and Hillary...  ◄Dave►

• Who Owns a Child?

  by ThoughtsAloud ◄Dave► August 15, 2012
  I am very comfortable with my libertarian philosophy, which propounds individual sovereignty and Liberty for freemen and women, with the natural right to live their lives as they choose to live them, as long as they do not forcefully interfere with or violate the natural rights of others. I have car...

• Academics vs. Autodidacts

  by ThoughtsAloud ◄Dave► August 11, 2012
  . I am becoming really bored with politics, and there is much I wished to contribute to the discussions on Chip's blog post below; but they were way off his topic. It has now veered into territory I find nearly irresistible, discussing the question of the value or necessity of acquiring one's educa...

• Fair Questions

  by ThoughtsAloud ◄Dave► July 31, 2012
  In his post below, Troy asked a fair question, yet was somewhat apologetic for its source. In my reply to him, I also felt constrained to distance myself from that less than reliable source. In today’s world gone mad, conspiracy theories are so ubiquitous, and many of their adherents so gullib...

• Almighty Using Roberts?

  by ThoughtsAloud ◄Dave► July 6, 2012
  I received the following in a chain e-mail, without attribution, so I have no idea who the author is, or what his credentials are. It was "presented as an explanation of the Obamacare Decision by a Conservative attorney." As I have said hereabouts since the ruling first came down, I concur with this...
