Sarah Palin has announced her resignation as Governor of Alaska. The video clip at the New York Times story either starts part way into her remarks, or Palin is even more incoherent than usual.
Near the end of her rambling but perky statement, she says, "I'm doing what's best for [...]
I think it’s fair to say that Sarah Palin’s decision to quit her office on July 26 is one of the most politically suicidal decisions since Mark Sanford started talking again earlier this week.
I picked up a Ruger SR9 today.Â
We even went and tried her out.Â
Happy 4th of July from AAA’s expanded arsenal.

What does Freedom mean?
Well to me it is a feeling in my heart of knowing that God created me in his image, that he has granted me free will to choose the life I want to live. It is not something that any government bestowed upon me, it's' [...]
I was enjoying a rare day off when I flipped on the Hannity show and heard Ann Coulter talking about Sarah Palin’s resignation from the Alaska governor gig.
Her spokesman wouldn’t say why Palin decided to step down, but the announcement stirred speculation that she would focus on a bid [...]
Some of the same people behind the Ron Paul Revolution idea are now supporting Adam Kokesh's campaign for Congress.Here in Minnesota we love co-ops as a business model—just look at the economic benefits they’ve provided for small towns.  The state is also leading the way when it comes to co-ops for senior housing. And now, the eyes to the U.S. Senate are trained on Minnesota’s co-op model—the country’s [...]

Regardless [...]
Nicholas Kristof rounds up some research on why people gack about gay marriage but can't get worked up over climate change. John Haidt, who we've quoted here before, says evolution has prepared us to fear some things and ignore others.
“The objects of our phobias, and the things that are [...]
…stop by the Minnesota State Capitol grounds for the July 4th Taxpayers Tea Party! It runs from three-ish until six-ish, I think - plenty of time to fit around cookouts and fireworks!
I’ll be there - I’m speaking, in fact; I’m fairly early in the lineup, which means it goes [...]
Happy 4th of July. I’m heading out to the cabin here. Still not quite over my cold, but I don’t care. I need a scene change.Â
Thanks to all the men and women who made America possible, I promise you that I won’t let it slide away. We don’t have to [...]
Seems pretty accurate to me.
It’s on the internet, so it must be true.
UPDATE:Â By jinkies, I think they’ve seen my comment section!

Good Luck, Al Franken
This isn’t exactly news; it’s almost three years old in fact. But I just heard about it the other day, as a couple of guys from Kansas (who knew they were still together?) talked about it on the KQ Morning Show; Billie Joe Armstrong has an endorsement deal with [...]

Sen.-elect Al Franken will be joining Sen. Amy Klobuchar and Rep. Jim Oberstar in the Iron Range's famous Fourth of July parades. Everyone in Range politics got their start at these parades.

The Waxman-Markey bill that recently passed the House, an attempt to install a cap-and-trade system regulating carbon dioxide emissions in the U. S., has certainly drawn a lot of attention.
