Railroaded

In the big switch from fossil fuels to “alternative” energy, cui bono?  Is this really the emergency the Democrats would have us believe, or is there something more to it?  After years of listening to every detail about Bush and Cheney’s oil connections, I think further investigation of how Nancy Pelosi and other top Dems stand to personally profit from the policies they are pushing is warranted.

In short, the US does not transition to majority electrical energy and the Democrats, the largest recipients of donations from this sector in the last four years, will not have their self created econo-politico industrial base. Much as they believe the Republicans have in “Big Oil”.

Taking A Shopping Break

After spending the last few days up to my neck in hacking attempts and trying to comprehend the financial crisis, I needed to take a break. My best friend just became a grandmother for the first time.  I’ve been looking for some baby gift ideas Read more

Choices

I am on the verge of no longer being able to offer the Democrats the benefit of the doubt.  For a long time, my premise has been that they just don’t know any better.  They really don’t understand the consequences of what they espouse.  Barney Frank, in particular, is now disabusing me of this idealistic notion.

Attacks using technology; political and otherwise

Blogging will be light today.  Not only have I barely slept since Friday when my work server began suffering a variety of attacks (the joys of being a small business owner! nobody to dump this problem on) but reading up on how to deal with all this is time-consuming.  As are the support calls coming in from clients.  I’ve never considered how expensive this sort of thing is - while I’m dealing with it, I’ve not been able to spend time on new, income generating projects that clients are waiting for.  Read more

Tiresome Little Punks

Lots of hacking in the blogosphere lately… from Sarah Palin’s social engineering email hack (meaning no real programming skill was involved, just good google-fu), most likely by a college student who is the son of a TN Dem. politician, by to the Dos attack on a post at Watt’s Up With That that some script kiddies apparently found offensive.  When something doesn’t fit the prevailing narrative - the GOP is evil and criminal, and global warming is going to Destroy Us All!!1!!!11!!!!!!eleventy!!1!!!! it simply must be stopped by any means necessary.  And the means, these days, includes abuses of technology.

Happy International Talk Like A Pirate Day!

Today be International Talk Like A Pirate Day! Take a break from t’ election and politics. Tomorrow t’ Obamessiah will still be intent on taxin’ and regulatin’ us into a European socialist state. McCain will still be plannin’ how we can invade Pakistan without causin’ anyone t’ flip some nukes and contemplatin’ how his amnesty be goin’ t’ make conservative heads explode. Biden will still be a scurvy dog. Palin will still be derided and demonized by t’ port and heroine-worshipped by t’ starboard. So forget it all for t’ day, have some grog or ale, and talk like a pirate! Read more
