American Idol 2006 - My Prediction

Katherine is extremely talented, but Taylor is, too - and he moves you.

Taylor by 10 points. 

***Update - This was my first year watching AI, and I didn't know that they don't show the vote totals for the finalists. I bet I was right, though. ;)

Don't Punish Employers of Illegal Immigrants?

Our government provides illegal immigrants with welfare and free medical care, educates their children and charges them in-state rates for college tuition.

Why should we prosecute employers who provide them with jobs?

Questions for American Environmentalists

For the hard-core American environmentalists - you know who you are:

  • Who are America's enemies today?
  • Do these groups and nations have a good track record on environmental issues? (hint: merely signing the Kyoto Protocol doesn't count)
  • Is it possible these groups and nations could - by force or economic means - seriously hinder the ability of the US to acquire oil from other countries?
  • If the US is not willing to resort to force to acquire sufficient oil, could the US become sufficiently crippled to the point where our enemies are able to defeat us?
  • If our enemies have control of our resources, will they be more or less likely than the US to put environmental concerns ahead of exploiting those resources?
  • If our enemies have control of our resources, will they be more or less likely than the US to allow you the freedom of speech to protest that exploitation?
  • Don't you think you should sit down and shut up so you don't look so stupid?

This strip really appeals to my inner psychopath.
 
Dogbert: "I invented and external anti-depressant."
 
Dogbert: "When I'm in a bad mood I just apply it to other people. "
 
<Squirt> 
 
Dilbert: "GAAA!"
 
Dogbert: "It used to be called pepper spray."
