"You will want to watch this video! Our retired head San Diego city librarian made $139,000 salary as an employee.
She now receives $227,000 in pensions, PLUS has another major pension we can't quantify.
Contrast that with a Commandant of the U.S. Marine Corps -- a FOUR STAR general position.
That general's pension for 30 years often arduous and dangerous service is about $149,000 a year."

"So what's the deal? In 2011, Washington, D.C., will celebrate Emancipation Day on April 15, a day earlier than normal, since April 16 falls on a Saturday.
Emancipation Day marks the anniversary of the day that President Lincoln signed the Compensated Emancipation Act.
The Act, which was 'for the release of certain persons held to service or labor in the District of Columbia,' freed 3,100 slaves in the District, making DC residents the 'first freed' by the federal government.
In 2005, Emancipation Day was made an official public holiday in the District of Columbia."

"Hitler promised health care, said that Germany’s business infrastructure needed a total government reform, and promised that all of the Germans would have jobs.
Also, Hitler may have been elected by less than 40% of the people in Germany, but he was elected by 98.8% in Austria.
After becoming Chancellor of Austria he took over the health care system, the car company (Austria had one major car manufacturing company at the time), and the business infrastructure.
Hitler did not sell fear and anger, he sold fundamental change of the nation’s infrastructure.
He sold the hope of everyone having a job and that everyone had a right to be given medical treatment at the government’s provision."

Instapundit » Blog Archive » EMBARRASSING WIDENER
A word needs to be said about the mocking laughter that instantly erupted from the law students in the audience.
Presumably, that sound meant we are smart and you are dumb.
Where did they learn to treat a guest at their law school — Widener Law School — with such disrespect?
They hooted O’Donnell down, and she never got a chance to explain her point.
What does that say about the climate for debate in law schools?
Not only did they feel energized to squelch the guest they politically opposed, but they felt sure of their own understanding of the law.
I’ve been studying law myself since 1978, and I still puzzle over things and try to work my way through problems.
If a speaker at my school makes a statement that sounds outlandish to me — me with 32 years of studying law — I may display a puzzled expression or a smile, but I hear the person out and entertain the possibility that he has a point and that even if the point is wrong, I will have learned some new perspective on the ways of being wrong or how another human being’s mind works. I try to create that atmosphere in the classroom.
What is the atmosphere at Widener?
Is there no intellectual curiosity?
No love of debate?
No grasp of how complex constitutional law problems can be?
Well, we can only judge by what we’ve seen.
Meanwhile, Cornell lawprof William Jacobson comments: “A literal reading of O’Donnell’s comments reflects that she was correct, but of course, the press and the blogosphere don’t want a literal reading, they want a living, breathing reading which comports with their preconceived notions.”"
A word needs to be said about the mocking laughter that instantly erupted from the law students in the audience.
Presumably, that sound meant we are smart and you are dumb.
Where did they learn to treat a guest at their law school — Widener Law School — with such disrespect?
They hooted O’Donnell down, and she never got a chance to explain her point.
What does that say about the climate for debate in law schools?
Not only did they feel energized to squelch the guest they politically opposed, but they felt sure of their own understanding of the law.
I’ve been studying law myself since 1978, and I still puzzle over things and try to work my way through problems.
If a speaker at my school makes a statement that sounds outlandish to me — me with 32 years of studying law — I may display a puzzled expression or a smile, but I hear the person out and entertain the possibility that he has a point and that even if the point is wrong, I will have learned some new perspective on the ways of being wrong or how another human being’s mind works. I try to create that atmosphere in the classroom.
What is the atmosphere at Widener?

"'I don't want to be in Washington another six years and watch the Republican party betray the trust of the American people again.
I mean, we had the White House.
We had a majority in the House and the Senate.
We voted for more spending and more earmarks.
Most of our senior members seem to be focused on taking home the bacon.
I'm not going to be in a Republican party like that and that's not what the Republican Party is across America,' Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC) told FOX News."
OH YEAH!

This may have been the very first time in my hunting life that my predator attention was focused completely on something other than grocery shopping for a whitetail deer."
