Blogger admits Hawaii birth certificate forgery, subverting Obama claims

Blogger admits Hawaii birth certificate forgery, subverting Obama claims:
"But why would a presidential campaign that has its own 'Fight the Smears' website rely on a radical left-wing blog like Daily Kos to post its official documents, especially one as sensitive and controversial as a birth certificate? A few days later the Obama site would post a very low resolution, barely legible image -- it still is there on the site, with no reference to the one first posted at the Daily Kos."

This is getting interesting!

Why We Went to War in Iraq - WSJ.com

Why We Went to War in Iraq - WSJ.com: "A lot of poor commentary has framed the Iraq war as a conflict of 'choice' rather than of 'necessity.' In fact, President George W. Bush chose to remove Saddam Hussein from power because he concluded that doing so was necessary."

Granholm takes freedom (choice?) and calls it a gift.

Granholm outlines ways to save money
"'There's no doubt that Michigan's fortunes are tied directly to the cost of gasoline,' she said. 'People are hurting. ... That's why giving them tools to save money is very important.'"

Shouldn't this read:
"Granholm takes freedom, call it a gift of "tools to save money".

Only a democrat could get away with this lie.

Only a liberal media would report it as if it were a wise decision.

I guess "choice" means never having to say "I'll make up my own mind".

Democrats want 55 MPH speed limit!!!!!!!

Democrats want to enforce 55 mph limit!!!!!
"State Rep. Aldo Vagnozzi said Wednesday in a statement that he has introduced a resolution urging Congress to reduce the national speed limit to 55 miles per hour. The lower limit would save Americans money by reducing gasoline usage while saving lives and lessening U.S. dependence on foreign oil, the Farmington Hills Democrat said."

Interesting..... we drive bikes to work and they continue to spend like drunken.... politicians.... and we still vote for these crooks?

Sick!

State settles $3.25 million lawsuit over Timothy Souders death in prison

State settles $3.25 million lawsuit over Timothy Souders death in prison
"A $3.25 million lawsuit settlement in no way makes up for the death of her son in a Michigan prison, Theresa Vaughn said, nor will it stop her campaign to improve prison conditions.
Timothy Souders, 21, died of dehydration and heat exhaustion after nearly four days shackled to a cement slab in a Jackson prison during an August 2006 heat wave,"

I wonder if anyone was fired or disciplined over this outrage.
I suspect not.

"Starbucks Corp. said Tuesday it will close 600 stores in the United States in the next year and cut back the number of new stores it had planned to open."

Holy moley!

Maybe there IS a relationship between how much you charge for something and how much of it you sell?

Higher minimum wage...... fewer jobs...... who'd of thunk?

"Troy Dennis VanderStelt was an 'all-around good guy' who was dedicated to his family, physical fitness and a career in real estate, according to friends and co-workers."

Maybe the liberal media will think twice before they demonize another industry like they have demonized mortgage and real estate companies.

Rising tuition threatens Michigan education goals

Rising tuition threatens Michigan education goals

Maybe SOMEONE ought to see where all the taxpayers money is going?

Maybe to the teachers and administrators in the form of massive pay increases and ballooning benefit and retirement packages?

Ah, the question we dare not ask.

Just soak the idiot taxpayer. It's been working for years, why change it now.......

Muskegon saves jobs by dipping into savings

Muskegon saves jobs by dipping into savings
"In the end, the Muskegon school board decided to save jobs rather than save money.....
The proposed $64.6 million general fund budget includes a $557,000 draw on the district's savings account, known as the fund balance."

"The area is so depressed, we need to try to save those jobs," said board Treasurer Billie Bruce. "Those are people who live in the city, pay taxes and have children in the district."

Armstrong had made a commitment to the board to reduce the district's reliance on savings to balance the district's budget. But he said he had real misgivings about the cuts to staff that would have to be made to do that.

......."It's a small amount we have to pay to do something better for the lives of the children and the community," said the Rev. Charles Poole, president of the school board. "It's all about bettering the community.".....

The district will hire 13 people this summer to recruit students to the district. In addition, a new full-time para-pro will work on retention of students at the high school and the district's M-TEC alternative education program.

Since when is it the "job" of school board members to take taxpayer money to employ people simply because the community has high unemployment?

These fools need to be replaced!

Defeat all incumbents!

Obama's Social Security Fine Prin

Obama's Social Security Fine Print
"Would it help Social Security's financing problems?
Mr. Obama has no idea. One of his senior economic advisers admitted to me that no one on the campaign has run any detailed models or performed any rigorous analysis. When one proposes an enormous tax increase, shouldn't there at least be a spreadsheet somewhere?
But the most alarming thing about Mr. Obama's proposal is that the $250,000 threshold, above which the payroll tax would be applied, refers to household income, not individual income. So it's quite deceptive when he claims that the $250,000 threshold will 'ensure that lifting the payroll tax cap does not ensnare any middle class Americans.'"

B Hussein's scheme will put the top tax bracket at over 60% and could easily affect as many as 20% of taxpayers!!!!!

And remember. The ObamaFeds are taking the moolah from folks who earned the money and then the Husseiniacs will give it to their friends in big government!

It's off to the races at Pork Chop Downs
"But the Show-Me Swine Races at Pork Chop Downs go on as they must, daily at 2, 4, 6, and 8 p.m. These pigs are pros.
Five competitors race in three heats and audience members are chosen to be the main rooter for each pig in each race."

These piggies are really worth your time. The entire show is hilarious!

Gay marriage and Obama

He's for it AND against it!
"Today we learned that Barack Obama opposes the proposed amendment to the California constitution defining marriage as the union of a man and a woman. In a letter to a gay civil rights group in San Francisco, Obama said he rejects 'the divisive and discriminatory efforts to amend the California Constitution' and similar efforts in other states.
At the same time, Obama has repeatedly said that while he supports civil unions for gay couples he believes marriage is between a man and a woman."

No problem dude..... if you want it, B Hussein will promise it!

But our "leaders" just voted to raise the cost of employing those students and young folks ....... could there be ANY connection?

Naa. It's Bush's fault. Cheney and Engler's too.....

United Auto Workers union endorses Obama for president

United Auto Workers union endorses Obama for president

Sounds logical to moi....

Obama says he will offer $4,000 tuition tax credit

Obama says he will offer $4,000 tuition tax credit
"Obama said he would give students a $4,000 tax credit to help pay tuition and fees in exchange for 100 hours of community service. The campaign said the program would cost $10 billion a year"

Let's see....$4000 divided by 100 hours... um that equals $40 bucks an HOUR!!!!?

B Hussein promises to give "students" $4o bucks an hour to do... what..... community service????

Do nothing "make-work" at $4/hr....... plus all those nifty democrat government workers to supervise the little darling students......

This only sounds "new" to someone who's never heard of the USSR...

Yeah but....... coal and oil also provide us with jobs and food.

Coal and oil are the energy bridge that we humans need until new technology is discovered.

Windmill farms and solar panels covering our real farms will provide nothing except more government subsidies to the makers of windmills and solar panels.

Oh yeah, they'll also makes us unemployed and hungry.
