Muslims Should be Insulted
Alan Partis | September 9, 2010
Quran burning episode proves two things: many Muslim faithful really ARE violent people, and liberals all clearly believe that — in spite of their empty rhetoric to the contrary.

Dark Days of the Soviet Union
Alan Partis | July 29, 2010
I contend that today’s liberal and progressives, due to the general dearth of their critical thinking skills, are actually quite blind to the reality around them. Instead, they are guided by baseless feelings of self-guilt through a world of political correctness which they are building that is 180 degrees out of phase with the realities of the human condition.
This Too Shall Pass

These are the times that try men’s souls.
Flawed Thinking
Alan Partis | March 24, 2010
A popular refrain from Obamites is that the Republicans are just the party of "no" and didn’t participate in the process of crafting this obamination of a health care plan. As a result of this, "they" say, it was all up to the Democrats to craft the whole thing. So, "they" conclude, the people who don’t like obamacare, should blame the Republicans.
Stop Inflation Now!
Alan Partis | January 24, 2010
Inflation. That word is one that strikes fear in the hearts of many by its mere mention. It is axiomatic that the prevailing economic condition, whether good or bad, has a big impact on all our lives and influences everything from where we go for vacations (if we go anywhere at all), how we shop, how we vote, and, for many, even how well we sleep. It was not so many years ago that our lives were very negatively impacted by inflation rates that topped 10%. Even inflation rates above 5% have proven to be very disruptive.
Manhood Missing in Denmark

Perhaps Denmark’s definition of manhood differs from my own, but this guy must surely fail to meet any threshold.
Rules Have Replaced Thinking II
Alan Partis | January 3, 2010
Perhaps my biggest pet peave in life is the blind application of rules. Rules have replaced thinking. It seems that more and more people subscribe to the belief that if we just make more rules, or laws, and we espouse zero tolerance policies, that somehow our lives will be enhanced.
R.I.P. Socialism
Alan Partis | January 3, 2010
Will we not learn the lessons that history is teaching us and finally, once and for all, bury socialist philosophies in a cold grave?
Stimulus Not Stimulating
Alan Partis | July 8, 2009
While it is relatively old news and widely known that the Obama administration’s $787 billion stimulus package, also known as the “American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009,” wasn’t designed to dump large amounts of cash into the economy in a hurry, VP Joe Biden’s recent remarks about it are still striking1. Nor is this […]
Rules Have Replaced Thinking
Alan Partis | June 27, 2009
Many people have completely abdicated their right to think. Instead, they ask for more and more rules to govern their lives, and the lives of others who they do not trust. The lack of trust (and trustworthy folks) in our society results in the application of more laws thus further degrading the very freedom we proclaim to be protecting.
Just a boy from small-town western New York (Batavia) with strong convictions and a desire to express my opinions. I'm married and have a daughter with whom I am taking great pains to brainwash into my way of thinking (so far with great success).
Though I am a software engineer by day, I read a great deal about current events, history, and economics and philosophy. I'm certain that many of my former teachers will be pleasantly surprised to hear this. I've grown very interested in trying to help educate others about the liberty guaranteed to us in the United States Constitution and the economic theories on which this Country was founded.
