Cincinnati Coffee Party Needs More Caffeine

According to a report from Canada Free Press, turnout for the coffee party weekend was subdued.  GateWay Pundit reports that the St. Louis coffee party turnout was a total of 30. Compare that to the 2,225 that turned out to the “Kill the Bill” rally down the road in St. Charles.  You can also see the 5 people that showed up to a North Carolina Coffee Party.

Cincinnati appeared to fare better, but not much.  Judging from their photos, they appeared to get somewhere in the neighborhood of 20 attendees.  Compare that to the turnout of the Cincinnati Tea Party, which was estimated at 7000.  It is clear where the majority of the public stands on issues that increase the cost and authority of government.

The Coffee Party Astroturf Movement

Photo by LimonadaLook closely everyone… it isn’t real grass roots, it is astroturf!!!  That’s right, the coffee party movement that you’ve probably heard spouted about in the media isn’t really a movement with a lot of commonality in the teaparty movement.  In fact, Left Coast Rebel has uncovered that many of the founders have their roots in some rather scary anti-capitalist movements.  I highly recommend checking out that link, Rebel has been keeping it updated with all the latest finds.

I’m not sure about anyone else, but this coffee movement hasn’t been going long and it already seems quite stale. I can’t help but see the astroturfed members of it as being little more than bitter… Sorry, I couldn’t resist. Calling them coffeebaggers just doesn’t work.

Daylight Stupidity Time

I just realized, it’s that time of year…  It’s time to cut an inch off our blankets and sew it to the other end so it is longer…  That’s right, it’s time for Daylight Saving Time!  The most futile and pointless of activities we are forced to do twice a year in order to save our precious supply of whale oil.  But we also get the side benefits of increased traffic accidents, increased residential energy usage, and plenty of issues for kids.  Oh, I can’t wait, this is so worth it!

New York City Salt Ban Proposed

The timing on this is uncanny (St. Patrick’s Day is right around the corner), but a bill has been introduced in the New York Legislature to ban the use of salt in preparation of food in New York City restaurants.
