What, might you ask, does that matter to a Libertarian in Las Vegas? Well, the Pfizer plant was a key factor in New London's decision to use Eminent Domain to condemn the property of Susan Kelo. This was ... http://thezspot.today.com/2009/11/20/pfizer-plant-and-eminent-domain/ Some people may think that this is good news. I disagree. Yes, the tea parties have made national news and created quite a buzz. And yes, I think that part of what holds back the two well known third parties (Libertarian and Green) is that they are associated with ... http://thezspot.today.com/2009/11/18/tea-party-registered-in-florida/ Rehashing an article that was all the Twitter buzz about 3 weeks ago, but still worth commenting on. I am absolutely shocked that the fully grown, very well paid people we pay to represent us would act this way. It is absolutely absurd. And to say that the locks ... http://thezspot.today.com/2009/11/11/democratic-maturity/ This was a very interesting article, and I couldn't agree more. In addition to my misgivings about excessive government intrusion in any way or for any reason in the market, this gives me more reason for concern. It is a simple reality that in today's financial system, saving and borrowing ... http://thezspot.today.com/2009/11/11/punishing-financial-responsibility/ A few weeks old, but an interesting article. Wisconsin could soon join several other states with laws specifically banning texting behind the wheel. While this may seem like a great idea, I actually think it is bad for several reasons. First off, practically speaking, how will an officer know someone was ... http://thezspot.today.com/2009/11/10/wisconsin-senate-bans-texting-while-driving/ I found this article interesting. Apparently Obama is not only Celebrity in Chief, but Prophet in Chief too. How can anyone fairly evaluate Obama with Catholic bishops holding him on this high of a pedestal. News flash. Obama is a human, and a politician. He is not ... http://thezspot.today.com/2009/10/21/obsession-with-obama-even-extends-to-church/ This story is almost two months old, but definitely worth a read, especially for those of us who think that the shift away from gold and silver based currencies is a factor in the current economic situation. The man was convicted of several (57) tax and real estate fraud related charges. ... http://thezspot.today.com/2009/10/07/local-business-man-convicted-on-his-convictions/ This is a great article about what sounds like a Second Amendment battle, but is really about a different Amendment, the Tenth. Montana is trying to assert that federal gun control laws are only valid where they pertain to interstate trade. If successful, Montanans will be able to ignore federal ... http://thezspot.today.com/2009/10/05/fight-for-second-and-tenth-amendment-rights/ This is an oldie, but a goody. Republican senators asked for answers on this one, with good reason. I can't believe this is going on and not getting more attention. The National Endowment for the Arts is encouraging artists to produce art in support of Obamacare and ... http://thezspot.today.com/2009/10/04/obamas-abuse-of-the-nea/ This article really got me upset. Although I think it's a waste of time and taxpayer dollars, there are many fights to further separate church and state that I can live with. If someone is truly offended by public school prayer, or a Ten Commandments statue in a court, or ... http://thezspot.today.com/2009/09/23/attack-on-religion-becomes-attack-on-vets/
