You’d have to live in another dimension to not have been sucked into the dialogue/argument/debate regarding the Colorado National Monument and the folks trying to force it into becoming a national park. I say forcing because that’s the only thing government can do regardless of how politicians spin their stories. Let me see if I […]
I read that President Barack Obama is going to meet with meteorologists to talk about climate change. While Mr. Fixit could have met with some folks who are serious in their study of climate from all sides of the spectrum, our Commandeer in Thief decided to go to the source of all one needs to […]
And sadly, you can say that again two ways: both for the folks who suffer and for our creditors. I’ve been saying for a long time what is just beginning to surface as a topic of conversation with western lawmakers as all things relate to the Bureau of Land Management, Forest Service, National Parks and […]
More importantly, I didn’t elect you to do what I want you to do, either. The same goes for the folks who got elected that I didn’t vote for. As a matter of fact, I think this same thing of every elected politician across the federal, state and local levels save this one demand: Stick […]

And this time it’s brought to you by your local Republican Party. It appears Democrats, liberals and progressives aren’t the only purveyors of panacea. After all, when it comes […]
That’s right. I asked if you survived the blizzard of 2014. What blizzard, you ask? Obviously I’m referring to the storm that hit on Feb. 4 as the latest issue of the Business Times went to press. After all, just a quick perusal of Facebook would give anyone craving information all the evidence needed this […]
A few stories in the news have got me thinking about all the problems of the world and how our nation got to the point where only the selected elected have the ability to solve them.
