I’ve had a lot of requests to make the Dumb A$$ Report a regular part of the Bad Nick Blog, and since our world never seems to run short of idiots and incompetents, what the heck, here goes! One Dumb A$$ we have to mention is Evelyn Mastroianni, principal of Public School 52, Staten Island, [...]
At least ten lawmakers who voted in favor of the health care bill received threats of death and violence in the wake of the bill’s passing. What the hell is wrong with people in this country? There was a time when Americans were a united people, and while we may not have always liked what [...]

Every year we see more and more of our jobs moving to Mexico, China, and other countries, while Americans are left with fewer and fewer options to find employment.
