What is a Skulk (noun)

“God we’re good, and we’re doing the right thing.” That’s the message I was hearing from the Obama show today. Watching it a question came to mind. What do you call a group of foxes? That popped into my head because what I saw was a parade of foxes expressing how they would protect the chickens. The same old names saying the same old things about how we need to fix the same old problem.

I wondered what it would look like when America lost it’s place as the world’s leading nation. I had hoped I’d never answer that question. What I am seeing is a general movement towards nationalizing everything and elevating the government to a ruling class. If we have the guts to unseat all of the incumbants in the next election we may yet save ourselves but I don’t have a  great deal of faith in the American people to do this.

Many Americans have lost much in the past year and Obama is inspiring the markets to ensure we lose even more. What is left and what we will earn is rapidly being locked up by the government to ensure we will be working not for ourselves but for it in the future.

I looked up that question, “What do you call a groupd of foxes?” The answer is “skulk”. When I looked up skulk as a noun I found a definition that was not surprising.

    The legal definition of electronic communication service is “any service which provides to users thereof the ability to send or receive wire or electronic communications.” The U.S. Justice Department’s position is that any service “that provides others with means of communicating electronically” qualifies.
