Quite possibly the best thing I’ve heard regarding faith in government in a long, long time.

The Republican Cabinet

I think if they win, a new office will be created:

The Secretary of Offense.

That is all. :)

The Unenforcability of Government Parenting

Thursday, January 24th, 2008

Check out Utah House Bill 139 - yet another misguided crusade in the name of the welfare of our children.

I can finally rest at home - kids in the wild - resting assured that Uncle Sam is finally taking responsibility for raising my children.

I don’t even know how to address this. It’s fundamentally flawed on all sorts of levels:

  1. First, it’s morality by committee. Thanks but no thanks - I’ll decide what’s wrong and right for my kids.
  2. Content filtering is wholly useless. Kids know this stuff better than the library IT that administers it.
  3.  This effectively nixes any chance of free, public wi-fi.

Can’t we focus on preventative measures like parent/teen education, rather than having to resort to this reactive type of legislation?
