In search of sanity
“Sanity, remember, does not mean living in the same world as everyone else; it means living in the real world. But some of the most important elements in the real world can be known only by…”
A law that can help a woman avoid a tragedy
Three epic tragedies have touched my life either directly or indirectly …
What does Obama do when he’s not campaigning?
By Tom Quiner [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1Vu-V6nEZM&feature=youtu.be] Proof that man is superior to beast is his ability to laugh. Humor is surely divinely inspired as a critical weapon for man to preserve his sanity in troubling times. We live in troubling times, don’t we? Most of our troubles are caused by boneheaded liberal thinking, aren’t they? Therefore, it is time to laugh. It is Friday, and Quiner’s Diner is proud to present NewBusted’s…
Beware the environmental cult
By Tom Quiner I care about the environment. I consume in moderation. I listen to the legitimate concerns expressed by environmentalists, weigh the science behind the politics against the realities of life, and tend to steer a moderate path on such issues. In other words, I do not discount environmental concerns out of hand. But it is getting harder to do this in light of the sheer inanity of some…
Unraveling the complexities of the liberal mind
By Tom Quiner Liberal positions often seem illogical. For example, Team Obama now tells us that the laws of supply and demand don’t apply to energy. Go figure.

Mr. Obama oversold Obamacare
By Tom Quiner [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJ-p29xEM0s&feature=player_embedded] My wife and I own a small business. We carry a high-deductible health-savings account (HSA). To hold down the price of premiums, we essentially pay the first $5000 of our medical expenses. I just got word that our premiums are going up another $600 this year on top of the $700 spike last year. I’m paying $1300 more a year for health insurance since the Democratically-controlled…
Is Peyton Manning worth $96 million?
Is Peyton Manning worth $96 million. A very good liberal friend of mine adamantly states that no one is worth that much money? Says who, I ask? The Denver Broncos suggest that Mr. Manning is very much worth the money, or else they wouldn’t have signed a contract for that amount. Mr. Manning is certainly reviled as part of the “one percent” by members of the Left who are motivated by greed and envy. And yet Mr. Manning did so much good for Indianapolis, the city, in terms of his charitable giving and the job creation he engineered by turning them into a rabid football town …
“If only Catholics were Indians”
By Tom Quiner It is illegal to kill bald eagles (16 U.S.C. 668-668c). The Northern Arapaho Indian Tribe threatened to sue the federal government, claiming that their rights were being violated, claiming that killing bald eagles is an important part of their religion. The Obama administration said, okay, we’ll let you kill them, we don’t want to threaten your religious freedom. Although we consider endangered species laws to be vitally…
