I hate when I have to write one of these snarky replies to Blanche Lincoln’s newsletters, but when my BS meter goes off the scale, it’s either reply or bite my tongue.  As my tongue is still bleeding from her last newsletter, a reply is in order.
Dear Fellow Arkansan,
My top priority for Arkansas is creating [...]

Forget the deadly insects from space; we have enough of them in Washington.  And if you believe they aren’t deadly, look at our national debt.  The Washington insects will kill this country as sure as the bugs wasted Rio.
Heinlein’s book had a premise – that we have a world government and two classes of people; [...]

Will the pandering never cease?  Following is a quote from the latest fantasy Senator Lincoln calls a newsletter.
“Having grown up in a rural area, I am strongly committed to ensuring that rural Arkansans have access to the services and infrastructure they need. Our rural communities depend on these investments to make improvements to community facilities [...]

What are you doing to help Conservative candidates?
If you can’t tell me you’re giving your time by talking to people, knocking on doors, attending meetings, manning phone banks, writing letters and emails, calling politician’s offices to tell them how displeased you are with them, calling your favorite candidate to tell her or him that you [...]

The latest ill-conceived project will require that the city use an Arkansas law that may have [...]

I don’t trust Barack Obama.  I believe he dislikes the United States of America, and that he’s working as hard as he can to destroy the country I love.  His actions, policies, and speeches reinforce my viewpoint.  As Glenn Beck often says, I hope I’m wrong, but I don’t think so.  If any readers care [...]

Isaac Asimov wrote and used the Three Laws of Robotics as the foundation for the science fiction he wrote.  The three laws were adopted by other science fiction writers and have appeared throughout science fiction and are referenced in many other works.
Why do we start an opinion article with reference to a science fiction writer?  [...]

First of all, there’s no such thing as “settled science”.  If you doubt that science is continuously making new discoveries that modify or throw out previous truths you should stop reading right now.  Rather than waste your time, you can get some sun (which rotates around the earth in your world) or take a trip; [...]

It’s Memorial Day and, as free citizens of the United States of America, we should be thinking of more than hamburgers, hotdogs, and NASCAR, but most of us won’t.  What a pity that the majority of us in the Land of the Free don’t have any idea why we are free.
The easy answer is that [...]
