Enough with the death by a thousand cuts. Can we just take away everyone’s right to free speech, eliminate individualism - make everyone a ward of the state, and turn the country into the Soviet Union and be done with it already?
“It’s all about diversity in media,” the Spectator quoted a House energy committee staff member as saying. “Does one radio station or one station group control four of the five most powerful outlets in one community? … Does one heavily trafficked Internet site present one side of an issue and not link to sites that present alternative views?”
Begs the same tired old question that I’m already sick of asking.
Can you imagine the freak show if this had been W’s chief of staff?
Emanuel is a multimillionaire, but lived for the last five years for free in the tony Capitol Hill townhouse owned by De Lauro and her husband, Democratic pollster Stan Greenberg.
During that time, he also served as chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee - which gave Greenberg huge polling contracts. It paid Greenberg’s firm $239,996 in 2006 and $317,775 in 2008. (Emanuel’s own campaign committee has also paid Greenberg more than $50,000 since 2004.)
…
Emanuel never declared the substantial gift of free rent on any of his financial-disclosure forms. He and De Lauro claim that it was just allowable “hospitality” between colleagues. Hospitality - for five years?
Q. Without violating that pesky Constitutional right to bear arms, how can a government legally disempower its people?
A. Rather than take away their guns directly, just make it too expensive to legally own them. How about a mandatory $1 Million insurance policy?
From the bill:
Provides that any person who owns a firearm in this State shall maintain a policy of liability insurance in the amount of at least $1,000,000…
Provides that the Department of State Police shall revoke and seize a Firearm Owner’s Identification Card previously issued under this Act if the Department finds that the person to whom such card was issued possesses or acquires a firearm and does not submit evidence to the Department of State Police that he or she has been issued in his or her name a liability insurance policy in the amount of at least $1,000,000
Did I wake up in an alternate universe? Someone at UCLA is not only admitting the U.S. has an enemy that needs found, but they are treating him like an animal.
According to a team led by Thomas Gillespie, at the University of California in Los Angeles, bin Laden’s location is “one of the most important political questions of our time”.
Mathematical models used to explain how animal species spread out say he should be close to where he was last spotted.
I really try to be tolerant of other people’s religious and spiritual views provided their views don’t motivate them to strap bomb belts on children, but…
Citizens Commission on Human Rights” (CCHR), a high-level Scientologist claims that Osama bin Laden’s “Number Two,” Ayman al-Zawahiri, is a Psychiatrist and it is him who persuaded Osama Bin Laden to launch the attacks on the World Trade Centre and Pentagon in 2002.
I guess politicians are so used to dodging questions and hearing other people dodge questions they might miss it the first time.
After saying he never raised funds for Blagojevich, Burris admitted to reporters Monday night that he did in fact try to raise funds after a solicitation request was made by the former governor’s brother, Rob. And while Burris contends he failed to disclose the extent of his contacts with Blagojevich because he simply wasn’t asked about them, a review of transcripts shows Burris repeatedly dodged questions when the issue was raised by a second state legislator when he testified under oath.
What’s that called when a company or organization solicits your email address for one thing, then uses it to solicit you for something else?
Uhhh… Anyway. I’m sure most of Obama’s sheep…err…supporters still don’t believe the Great Shepard can do anything wrong…not with their money or their email address.
The Obama presidential campaign’s list of supporters and donors — some 13 million e-mail addresses — is being transformed into a permanent grassroots organization, tied to the Democratic National Committee. It could give the president a powerful tool for dealing with Congress.
Looks like Trump is participating in the recession. On the bright side, at least people aren’t gambling as much…outside of Washington anyway.
Trump Entertainment Resorts Inc., real estate tycoon Donald Trump’s casino group, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy Tuesday morning, court documents show.
The petition listed less than $50 million in assets and nearly $500 million in debt, according to a petition filed today in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Camden, New Jersey
