Panoramic photo of Grand Rapids tea party makes counting the crowd easy - Talking Politics: "But his count from the photo at least doubles the 1,000 people estimated by reporters from several media outlets at the scene"
Why Your Taxes May Double
Why Your Taxes May Double
"To help put things in perspective, the Peterson Foundation calculated the federal government accumulated $56.4 trillion in total liabilities and unfunded promises for Medicare and Social Security as of September 30, 2008. ... If $56.4 trillion in financial commitments is too big a number to digest, think of it as $483,000 per American household, or $184,000 for every man, woman and child in the country. ...
........
Unless we begin to get our fiscal house in order, there's simply no other way to handle our ever-mounting debt burdens except by doubling taxes over time."
And the liberal media has this same information but has chosen to keep it from us.
Despicable!

There is another forum that doesn't delete like politicians spend.

Where Next After Tea Parties?
Where Next After Tea Parties?: "But the issue remains, how is yesterday turned into something that can grow and prepare to restore Constitutional government? The answer I believe is to seek out those things that can be done on a local level, to benefit local citizens and begin the hard work of actually doing them."

"The road work will not begin until next spring because the engineering company needs time to work on the project, said City Manager Natasha Henderson."

Drug Control Breeds Gun Control
Drug Control Breeds Gun Control
"Two weeks ago (as Radley Balko noted), a Fox News story by William La Jeunesse and Maxim Lott debunked the commonly heard factoid that 90 percent of the firearms used by Mexican drug traffickers come from American dealers.
In a front-page story about gun smuggling on Tuesday, The New York Times modified the claim, saying '90 percent of the 12,000 pistols and rifles the Mexican authorities recovered from drug dealers last year and asked to be traced came from [gun] dealers in the United States.'
But according to La Jeunesse and Lott, that's not quite right either:"

Mother who died giving birth in hospital toilet never saw twins
Mother who died giving birth in hospital toilet never saw twins
"A woman died in labour in a hospital lavatory after her induction was delayed because of a lack of specialist staff, an inquest was told yesterday.
Sarah Underhill, a policewoman aged 37, was in her 36th week of pregnancy when she was admitted to hospital suffering from pre-eclampsia."
"Free" national health care we say we want.
We're gonna get it!
In more sad ways than one......

Big Mark-the democrat handbook
Big Mark: "Could this be the mission statement of Barack Hussein Obama and the Democrats?
Pick the target,
freeze it,
personalize it,
and polarize it.
Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy.
Go after people and not institutions;
people hurt faster than institutions.
(This is cruel, but very effective. Direct, personalized criticism and ridicule works.)
From Saul Alinsky’s Rule for Radicals"
This is the handbook of the democrats.
They don't even bother denying it.
Big Mark has it right..... and scary it is!

New Right to Work Video: Real Faces of Card Check Intimidation
"In this new special National Right to Work Committee video report, Dana Corporation employees in Albion, Indiana, share their stories of harassment and intimidation by UAW union operatives during a militant card check organizing drive. The workers discuss how union organizers specifically targeted and ramped up their coercive tactics against female employees.
As one worker explains in the video, “People in the UAW will call you their sister or their brother. I never treated any of my brothers and sisters that way.”"

Fear and Greed Have Sales of Guns and Ammo Shooting Up
Fear and Greed Have Sales of Guns and Ammo Shooting Up
"The way Jay Chambers sees it, the semiautomatic weapons in his firearm collection might be the most promising investment in his financial portfolio."
I just bought 2 new guns.
Does Barry Hussein have a better investment idea?

too freakin' funny!
(thanks Mrs. Schwambo)!
HAVE YOU EVER BEEN GUILTY OF LOOKING AT OTHERS YOUR OWN AGE AND THINKING, SURELY I CAN'T LOOK THAT OLD.
WELL.... YOU'LL LOVE THIS ONE.
MY NAME IS CATHY , AND I WAS SITTING IN THE WAITING ROOM FOR MY FIRST APPOINTMENT WITH A NEW DENTIST.
I NOTICED HIS DDS DIPLOMA,WHICH BORE HIS FULL NAME. SUDDENLY, I REMEMBERED A TALL, HANDSOME, DARK-HAIRED BOY WITH THE SAME NAME HAD BEEN IN MY HIGH SCHOOL CLASS SOME 30-ODD YEARS AGO.
COULD HE BE THE SAME GUY THAT I HAD A SECRET CRUSH ON, WAY BACK THEN?
UPON SEEING HIM, HOWEVER, I QUICKLY DISCARDED ANY SUCH THOUGHT.
THIS BALDING, GRAY-HAIRED MAN WITH THE DEEPLY LINED FACE WAS WAY TOO OLD TO HAVE BEEN MY CLASSMATE.
AFTER HE EXAMINED MY TEETH, I ASKED HIM IF HE HAD ATTENDED MORGAN PARK HIGH SCHOOL .
'YES. YES, I DID. I'M A MUSTANG,' HE GLEAMED WITH PRIDE.
'WHEN DID YOU GRADUATE?' I ASKED.
HE ANSWERED , 'IN 1975. WHY DO YOU ASK?'
'YOU WERE IN MY CLASS!', I EXCLAIMED..
HE LOOKED AT ME CLOSELY.
THEN, THAT UGLY,
OLD,
BALD,
WRINKLED,
FAT ASS,
GRAY-HAIRED,
DECREPIT
SON-OF-A-BITCH ASKED,
'WHAT DID YOU TEACH ???

Jesus Missing From Obama's Georgetown Speech
Jesus Missing From Obama's Georgetown Speech
"Amidst all of the American flags and presidential seals, there was something missing when President Barack Obama gave an economic speech at Georgetown University this week -- Jesus.
The White House asked Georgetown to cover a monogram symbolizing Jesus' name in Gaston Hall, which Obama used for his speech, according to CNSNews.com.
The gold "IHS" monogram inscribed on a pediment in the hall was covered over by a piece of black-painted plywood, and remained covered over the next day"
And this is a "Catholic" university?
