Folks. They really are nuts-----Center for Media and Democracy: Liberals are morally superior

This from the leader of a very powerful "mainline" liberal organization:
Center for Media and Democracy: Liberals are morally superior « Watchdog.org:
“Why should we be surprised conservative-funded groups are funding conservative causes?” the reporter asked. Doesn’t the same thing occur on the left?

The answer, according to CMD executive director Lisa Graves: Yes, but the left is morally superior in its motives.

“The question of conservative funders versus liberal funders, I think, is a matter of false equivalency,” Graves responded. “Quite frankly a number of these (corporate donors) like Koch Industries … they’re advancing not just an ideological agenda but an agenda that helps advance the bottom line of their corporate interests. That’s quite a distinct difference from some of the funders in the progressive universe.”

At the heart of CMD’s campaign is the suggestion that conservative political groups cannot legally work together. 
Liberal groups? 
That seems to be okay."

Former Hostages React to Iran's Nuclear Deal

Former Hostages React to Iran's Nuclear Deal:
 ""It's kind of like Jimmy Carter all over again," said Clair Cortland Barnes, now retired and living in Leland, N.C., after a career at the CIA and elsewhere.
He sees the negotiations now as no more effective than they were in 1979 and 1980, when he and others languished, facing mock executions and other torments."

ObamaScam just another day in lib-land------Obamaphones: Rife with Waste, Fraud, and Abuse

Obamaphones: Rife with Waste, Fraud, and Abuse | The Foundry: Conservative Policy News Blog from The Heritage Foundation:
"Free cell phones for low-income Americans, one of the fastest growing welfare programs in the United States, is—by the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) own admission—rife with “waste, fraud and abuse.” 
And who is paying for these free Obamaphones?
If you have a phone subscription, you are.
The program, officially called Lifeline, predates Obama’s presidency but has earned the colloquial name “Obamaphone” after nearly tripling in cost since 2008.
Almost everyone who pays a phone bill has an extra monthly charge that contributes to the Universal Service Fund, which covers Lifeline access.
The government pays companies $9.25 for every person connected through Lifeline.
Recipients typically receive a free wireless phone and a certain amount of airtime."

Huntington Beach Bar Fights To Save Sign That Salutes Veterans

Huntington Beach Bar Fights To Save Sign That Salutes Veterans « CBS Los Angeles:
"HUNTINGTON BEACH (CBSLA.com) — Veterans are rallying around a local bar whose owners say they have been ordered to removed a sign that salutes their service.
“Thank a veteran for your freedom!” says a large sign perched above Johnny’s Booze and Pool.
Vets love it and make up a significant part of the establishment’s clientele.
...But someone complained to the city about the sign, and now the bar’s owners say they’ve been ordered to take it down.
“We received a letter in the mail from the city stating that we have to remove it within two days or they were going to fine us, like, $940,” says co-owner John Marovic."

He's still got THREE MORE YEARS! Think Europe in 1936......China-Japan rearmament is Keynesian stimulus, if it doesn't go horribly wrong

China-Japan rearmament is Keynesian stimulus, if it doesn't go horribly wrong – Telegraph Blogs:
"Asia is on the cusp of a full-blown arms race.
The escalating clash between China and almost all its neighbours in the Pacific has reached a threshold.
All other economic issues at this point are becoming secondary.
Beijing's implicit threat to shoot down any aircraft that fails to adhere to its new air control zone in the East China Sea is a watershed moment for the world.
The issue cannot easily be finessed.
Other countries either comply, or they don't comply.
Somebody has to back down."

Isn't government supposed to protect the consumer? -----The Dirty Secret of 'Discounts'—Black Friday and Beyond

The Dirty Secret of 'Discounts'—Black Friday and Beyond - WSJ.com:
Amazon.com Inc. AMZN +0.42%is featuring a Samsung 005930.SE +0.96%60-inch HDTV in its 2013 Holiday Gift Guide.

The TV is selling at a 45% discount to its list price of $1,799.99.

But, according to Decide.com, a price-tracking firm owned by eBay Inc., the TV hasn't sold for anywhere near the list price in months. 

The most it has sold for in the past eight months is $1,297.85, according to Decide.com. 

As recently as October, it was priced at $997.99, about the same as its current sale price.

Another tactic involves raising selling prices ahead of the holidays before the discounts kick in. 

In an analysis for The Wall Street Journal, price-tracking firm Market Track LLC looked at the online price fluctuations of 1,743 products in November 2012. 

Prices climbed an average of 8% in the weeks leading up to Thanksgiving for 366, or about a fifth, of the products; the items were then discounted on Black Friday. 

Toys and tools had the biggest pre-Black Friday price increases—about 23%.

This is why unions love to continue "without a contract"----Bill Would Allow Automatic Pay Increases For Public Safety Employees

Bill Would Allow Automatic Pay Increases For Public Safety Employees [Michigan Capitol Confidential]

A new bill giving public safety employees a carve out from a key labor reform is in the House Commerce Committee.

Public Act 54 of 2011 banned seniority-based automatic pay raises for individual government employees when a union contract has expired and no replacement has been negotiated. Before enactment of the law, union members could get automatic pay increases while new contracts were being negotiated, which served as a disincentive to reaching agreements. 

But House Bill 5097, which has 23 co-sponsors, would exempt law enforcement and fire department employees from the law.
