Talk radio format coming to 106.9 FM MLive.com
"Muskegon will get a new talk radio station as the result of a frequency shake-up that moved a popular country station.
WOOD-AM, a Grand Rapids news and talk radio station now at 1300 AM, also will be broadcast at 106.9 FM beginning early next year. The station that formerly occupied that frequency — WMUS “The Moose,” a Muskegon country station — will move up the dial to 107.9.
Star 108, currently at 107.9, will be canceled, though listeners can hear similar adult contemporary programming at 105.7 FM."

WHO: The National Science Foundation
WHAT: Gave a $141,002 federal stimulus grant to Montana State University to fund a six-week, student trip to Hangzhou, China, to study dinosaur eggs and other fossils.
WHY IT'S AN OUTRAGE: The students found ample time to experience Chinese culture and explore on taxpayers' money, but the dinosaur eggs did not hatch any new jobs.
WHERE TO VENT: Call the NSF inspector general at 800-428-2189."

The Presidential Succession Begins.
DON SURBER: The Presidential Succession Begins.
DON SURBER: The Presidential Succession Begins. “The truth is Clinton took over the presidency on Friday when Obama just walked away. Leadership is about symbols. Mommy — Michelle Obama — called and Obama had to go home. He let Clinton take over and clean up the mess. . . . Being president sucks right now. It will get worse. His programs are a failure. His party does not like him. So he sent Biden to talk to the party and Clinton to talk to the press. At this point, it is merely symbolic of a resignation. A bad weekend. But it certainly is not something I have seen before in presidential politics.”
They’re taking bets on Obama’s departure. But he’s got an ace in the hole — he only has to run against the Republicans. . . .

"We have two elevators and one of them breaks down, usually on a weekend, about three times a month.
No one comes to fix it until regular offices hours on Monday.
They are the same elevators installed in 1973 when the building was built.
We are told the reason they break down is because they are “used more than any other elevators in town.”
There are 11 floors in the building with 16 apartments on each floor."

GOVERNMENT!
Imagine how efficient our entire health care system will be when these morons take control!

Democrats hurl f-bombs at Obama. Are they racist now?
theblogprof: Video: Democrats hurl f-bombs at Obama. Are they racist now?
Remember when the tea party was labeled as racist for opposing the Obama agenda?
What about Democrats not only opposing Obama's so-called compromise on keeping tax rates at present levels but hurling f-bombs at him?
Racist?
Resisting his compromise because of the color of his skin?
