Ohio Vote Totals For Barack Obama A Statistical Miracle! - Barack Obama won Wood County in Ohio this year with 108% of registered voters. That’s not a typo. In 2012, 106,258 people in Wood County are registered to vote out of an eligible 98,213.  This is not to say that the 108% registered all voted for Obama, just that more people are registered than eligible. Perhaps even more astonishing is FPM reports that he won 100% of the vote in 21 districts in ... Read More

When are these politicians going to learn that if you keep dipping into the treasury for bailouts, stimulus, and other nonsense, that sooner or later the treasury runs dry?

I had never driven such a distance in one day. In the end, I had been awake for 25 hours straight, and had ... Read More

It might be starting to sound like I am really 'down' on the system we have here in the US. I suppose I am. I KNOW that it is one of the many reasons I decided to homeschool. It seems that in one Ohio school, where they have 490 female students, 65 of them are pregnant! That is an amazingly outrageous ratio. I think when I was in high school, we had 'one girl who got in trouble' and chose to ... Read More

This date loomed before us with happiness and part dread. We had to be 800 plus miles to Wisconsin from Maryland overnight and back the next day to get the children back to Maryland, 800 plus miles more, in time for the vans leaving for camp. When it was planned out months ago, it seemed like a total impossiblity. Yet, it had to be done. Made worse by not having any sleep two nights prior to heading out, and not sleeping the ... Read More
