Chip Bennett Chip Texas Board of Education: Liberal Media Bias on Full Display – http://bit.ly/cPa5Z2..

The unabashed liberal bias of the mainstream media is on full display in their reporting of the recent Texas Board of Education curriculum-change vote.

Chip Bennett Chip Life Expectancy And Quality of Health Care – http://bit.ly/9aUqZJ..

A recent RedState post detailed the valiant efforts of conservative students at Goshen College (Goshen, IN) to reverse the school’s decision to ban the National Anthem. Apparently, the President’s Council at the school deemed the lyrics of the song (“the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air“) to be incompatible with the school’s pacifist [...]

Often, proponents of nationalized health care will cite statistics indicating that the US lags with respect to life expectancy as compared with other industrialized nations that have some form of nationalized health care. Such comparisons are largely meaningless; life expectancy is not a meaningful metric of the quality of health care in a given country. As [...]

Recently, an 18-year-old Canadian girl died in an ambulance en-route to the hospital, due to injuries suffered in a car accident.

When I first started blogging many years ago, I used the Blogger platform, which I imported to my own domain using FTP (so that anyone reading my blog would see it as www.chipbennett.net). At the time, Blogger’s commenting system was rather rudimentary, so I opted to use a third-party comment management system called Haloscan.
Interestingly, due [...]
