EconoFaux

August 19, 2009

What a great word, “EconoFaux”!  I decided to create a word that described “ a bold and blatant falsehood on matters of or relating to functional and practical economic engagements or actions which accurately describe and/or otherwise conform in such a manner as to support or authenticate the idea express by an FEI (Flat Earth Idolatry).”

EconoFaux culprits tend to be: 

  • Government Agent or Agencies
  • Politicians
  • Recipients of Government Entitlements/Benefits
  • Union Operatives
  • Anyone who has never been solely responsible for the fuel source of a checkbook
  • Activists or Activist related Organizers

Made-Off is Clear

January 26, 2009

 Yes,  it’s a play on words!  There’s more to say about Bernie Maidoff and his scheme though I’ll leave to investigators, ultimately, to unravel the depth of the misprision.  He will be found guilty, he will give up his lush and lavish lifestyle and spend a few years at any one of the minimum security compounds available.

Democracy, A Tough Choice

January 15, 2009

“America isn’t easy,  America is advanced citizenship, you’ve got to want it bad….” This piece is taken form the 1995 movie “American President” and in the demonstrated performance American ethos and passion,  the scene (“American President – the Speech ”) where this excerpt is sourced is not to be missed. Yes the later 1.4 minutes are annoying to me for the topic of discussion on Crime Bill and Energy Bill a bit on the side of misguided however,  but I must confess,  I’ve never seen Michael Douglas give a more stunning performance.
