“Ronald Reagan had a vision of America. Barack Obama has a vision of Barack Obama. “
Dr. Sowell’s Random Thoughts and much more impressive than any kind of thoughts BHO has had.

” than any kind of thoughts BHO has had. “
Having never heard any kind of ‘thought’ from B0, I can neither agree or disagree.....

So many taglines from Mr. Sowell. I’m using the one you posted as my newest tagline.

I believe Obama is a neophyte in regards to thinking ability as compared to Dr. Sowell.

Wal-Mart has done more for poor people than any ten liberals, at least nine of whom are almost guaranteed to hate Wal-Mart. AAAUUURGH! This is SO true!

Wal-Mart and other retailers should be coming out with ads letting the middle and lower classes know that it is those that proclaim they want to protect you and keep you dependent on you are the ones causing you the most harm. Business needs to fight back.

My favorite:
An e-mail from a reader whose job requires him to take urine tests, to make sure he is drug-free, wonders why he is taxed to provide money to people on welfare who are also on drugs. He thinks they should have to take urine tests too, before they get his money. This would cut the welfare budget in half, at least.

This would cut the welfare budget in half, at least. There's no doubt in my mind that it would and if random drug testing is okay in our military it should also be for welfare recipients.

Certainly the wisest.
I love reading him. Always so clear and concise. I wish my brain worked like that.
To: jazusamo
If only Thomas Sowell was being sworn in as President. Then I wouldn’t have all this racial angst that I have. I feel guilty for opposing virtually everything that comes out of socialist Obama’s mouth. Libs, college students, and PC people make me feel lower than a neanderthal for not rejoicing in the coronation of Obama as America (or Kenya’s) 1st African-American President!

A reader suggests that members of Congress should wear uniforms, like NASCAR drivers, so that we will know who their corporate sponsors are.Only problem is that there wouldn't be enough room on Pelousy's jump suit for all the union, hyphen-american, gay rights and terrorist-appeasing pressure groups that own her.

“if random drug testing is okay in our military it should also be for welfare recipients.”
True story: the first time I ever had an NCO call the room to attention after I pinned on O-6 was when I walked in to provide my urinalysis sample. God has such a sense o’ humor...

So true and as fat as Fat Jack Murtha is there wouldn’t be enough space for his corrupt campaign donor logos on it.
