Since Obama’s election, it’s been very quiet here at Techimoto. In truth, we’ve had nothing much to rant about! Bush has evidently found himself some other hobby than trying to run a country, most likely trying to figure out how the Dewey Decimal System will work in his presidential library and hitting neighborhood yard sales [...]

If “Joe the Plumber” only knew that the Republicans he so admires really hold him in disdain. His only value to them is good old reliable fodder to fuel their war chests. He’s a believer OK, and a fool.

Sometimes I think our political leaders read too much Ian Fleming, or worse, indulge in the faint-within-faint-within-faint political tactics implicit in the whole “Dune” series.

Future generations (if schools still exist), might be taught about the historic meeting on September 25th, 2008, when President Bush was heard to utter “If money doesn’t loosen up, this sucker could go down.”
It was supposed to be not much more than a photo-opportunity, a demonstration of national unity in the face of economic [...]

FROM THE LEE COUNTY, FLORIDA, WEBSITE:
When Mike Scott took charge of the Lee County Sheriff’s Office in 2005, he became just the 12th person to oversee the agency since 1887. Already, he has made his mark in the community – and the state.
