Why Did Gene Suddenly Abandon His Presidential Campaign?

As a select few of you are aware, my anti-Chapman blog got hit with a rather unusual anonymous comment yesterday. I’m not going to repeat it because I have no way of substantiating some of what was in it, but it was posted by someone who claimed to know Gene’s ex-wife, and it made some [...]

Posted 3/29/2007 08:34:00 PM by Gene

I’ve carried the ball as far down field as I can. With 4 jobs and school starting in June, along with not having a truck to carry me to presidential debates, I see no way to continue the campaign.
I’ve withdrawn from the [...]

New ‘08 presidential election blog looks promising

While meandering around google just a few minutes ago, I found what appears to be a brand-new blog for the 2008 presidential election. It’s surprisingly well thought out, and seems to be trying to maintain a neutral viewpoint. There’s not even a hint of what party affiliation or political persuasion this blogger may [...]

Warn Your Kids!

…sit down with the kids. Warn them. Tell that there will be people who pretend to be their friends. They hang out outsides the schools, at the malls, anywhere where kids hang out. They lurk around the internet. They will even call at home if they know the parents aren’t around. Not only [...]

Drunk Off-Duty Cop Attacks Female Bartender After She Refuses To Serve Him

The video pretty much speaks for itself. It goes without saying that this jerk should never have been given authority over other people. What’s really sad is that, if not for the surveillance camera in the bar, chances are the cops would never have believed it happened.

Four-Year-Old OD’d, Parents Charged With Murder

While the world watches and waits, and demands to know what killed Anna Nicole Smith (and where her son Daniel got the Methadone which killed him just five months prior - duh), a far more disturbing prescription drug-related death has occurred.
Four-year-old Rebecca Riley died of an overdose of Clonidine, a drug prescribed for bipolar [...]

Let Freedom Grow! for 03/18/07

In this week’s “radio address,” Steve Kubby discusses the war on Iraq:
Over the last four years, a majority of Americans have come to agree with what libertarians have been saying all along:

Sherlock Holmes Connection To Houdini Murder Mystery?

Renowned magician Harry Houdini is rising from the grave, 81 years after his untimely death at age 52.
He’s not doing so voluntarily, though, despite his promise to contact his loved ones from The Great Beyoooooond.
It seems that members of his family now believe he died, not as the result of peritonitis resulting from a ruptured [...]

In this week’s “radio address,” Steve Kubby discusses family and marriage
issues. Excerpt:

It’s the fashion these days for politicians to describe
themselves as “pro-family.” I can do that. As a matter of fact, I’d
describe myself as the most “pro-family” candidate for President in
2008.
How “pro-family” am I?
