PRINCETON, NJ -- U.S. military veterans and those currently on active military duty are less likely to approve of President Obama's job performance than are Americans of comparable ages who are not in the military.

The Law of Lower Class Values
The Law of Lower Class Values « Freedoms Journal
"There is an absolute lower class culture. The victimization values of this culture create behavior that makes these people stay poor. It is not bigotry or prejudiced, nor is it condescending to call them lower class. They have a culture that is antithetical to creating wealth and accomplishment. This culture blames problems on others as opposed to making accountability a priority, and as a result, the victims are discouraged from improving themselves; they are discouraged from working hard for the “man.” It promotes a zero-sum mentality leading to crime, especially theft, and welfare dependence. It disparages educational excellence. It encourages misogyny which leads to the breakdown of the their family structure and contributes to the lack of traditionally successful male role models. I can go on and on. The vast majority of positive accomplishments from this culture revolve around sports and entertainment, especially popular music. Unfortunately even the popular music tends to extol the negative aspects of this culture." (From Armstrong Williams)
My grandparents were immigrants from Sicily. They valued their family, God, and made sure their kids knew how important it was to work, follow the law, and save your money. They passed that on to your kids and my parents passed those values on to me--and I have done the same for my offspring. I married a man with similar values.
Moral of the story--I have never seen myself as a victim--I believe in hard work and accomplishment. Living your life that way will lead you to happiness and wealth.

Here's why we're screwed
Because the country's finances are a horrowshow.
Unfortunately, because our leaders are still pretending that we can have it all, Americans haven't yet clued into the fact that the only answer is BOTH higher taxes AND less spending.
In other words, kicking our debt and deficit problem is going to be painful. And everyone's going to pay."

This sure doesn't make me feel good about my Illinois pension
For the second year in a row, Illinois ranks dead last when it comes to saving money to pay promised worker pensions -- and the hole is getting worse. According to a new report being issued this morning by the Pew Center on the States, Illinois through fiscal 2009 had set aside just 51% of the $126 billion it will need to pay retired workers their pensions.

Thankfully there IS a death penalty in Florida--and they USE IT
Searching for evidence in gruesome murder
This kid is lured to his death by his ex-girlfriend. Disturbing, disgusting, awful. They should be tried and put to THEIR death when they are convicted.
"When the unsuspecting Jackson arrived Sunday at the Summerfield home of one of Wright's friends, he was ambushed by several other teens, including Wright's current boyfriend, Michael Bargo, 18, police said.Bargo allegedly shot Jackson several times with a .22-caliber revolver. When Jackson tried to escape, he was struck with an ax handle and restrained. Jackson was then placed in a bathtub, where Bargo broke his knees so his body would fit in a sleeping bag. But Jackson was still alive, so Bargo shot him again, police said.
Then the gang allegedly crammed Jackson's body inside a blue sleeping bag and hauled it to a backyard fire pit, where they used wood to start a fire that burned for hours."

Abortion makes Planned Parenthood money
ADF - Alliance Defense Fund
"Abortion is big business for Planned Parenthood.
"Abortion is big business for Planned Parenthood.
In 2009, America’s largest abortion provider received nearly $350 million in taxpayer funding – and aborted more than 332,000 preborn children. The University of Wisconsin Hospitals and Clinics was secretly planning to transfer Planned Parenthood’s late-term abortion services to one of its medical facilities. Not only could this abortion program lead to the deaths of nearly 100 developed, 19- to 22-week-old preborn babies each year, but pro-life staff – like Anesthesiologist Nancy Fredericks – would be forced against their conscience to participate in the killing of innocent lives.
By God’s grace, ADF and our allies uncovered its covert scheme, fired off letters to university hospital officials, and helped coordinate a public response. As a result, the University of Wisconsin Hospitals and Clinics has abandoned its late-term abortion plans."

Liberal women ARE hypocrites
The Hypocrisy of the Feminist Left
"We all know most extreme leftists are undoubtedly hypocritical. There are those who claim Rep. Paul Ryan’s (R-WI) budget plan will kill, starve and abandon disabled children and the elderly but they support Obamacare while denying the inevitable rationing that will occur under socialized health care when the money runs out. There are those who praise the President for intervening in Libya for “humanitarian purposes” but criticize the war in Iraq. A country with a sadistic dictator who killed more Muslims than anyone in history."WAY BACK WHEN (I was in my early 20's) I was a member of NOW, but as soon as abortion became their #1 issue I told them to take a hike. If NOW is an organization that was designed to promote women's rights, protect and defend women, WHY do they praise and push support for abortion that (probably if statistics are correct) kills 50% of the babies that are aborted in this country? Why don't they protect and defend CONSERVATIVE women who are attacked (and viciously) by creeps in the press and on the internet? HYPOCRITES. They should be ashamed!

From Senator Jim DeMint
Republicans must not be so afraid of Democrats' threats of a shutdown that they fail to unite behind the broad, sweeping reforms necessary to save our country. There will be a short window to pass the balanced budget amendment before a vote to increase the debt ceiling and the GOP must take advantage of it.
This guy ought to know
I ought to know. I was Mr. Obama’s college classmate at Columbia University Class of ‘83. Our college was dominated by socialists and Marxists who hated capitalism and America. Let’s look at the facts up close and personal - Jeff Foxworthy style. Mr. Foxworthy leaves no doubt as to “who might be a redneck.” Let me leave no doubt that “Obama might be a socialist.”"

First strike on the unconstitutional no-bama care law
"Congress on Tuesday passed the first major changes to last year’s health care law, undoing both a burdensome paperwork requirement for small businesses and rewriting part of the way the health exchange subsidies are paid for.
The measure has become known as the “1099 repeal” because it would relieve businesses of having to file 1099 tax forms for any person or company to which they pay at least $600 in a year."
More success to come....

Demon-crats ='s HYPOCRITES
Michelle Malkin
The Littlest Victims of Obamacare
The best of intentions (and in the spirit of the Christmas season I will say they had good intentions) have proven to be absolutely destructive of our insurance system, our medical care, and the financial soundness of this country. Demon-crats are hypocrites--they say one thing but when it comes right down to it they do all they can to defile our basic structure and what America is all about. No wonder America voted them out. Republicans--be the party of the people--not the country club set. Stand up to the socialist occupying the White House. It's time to be serious about protecting our country and doing what's right!

A lingering depression
So Tuesday was a WONDERFUL day across America for Republicans, and yes, here in Illinois it was pretty darned good to get rid of Bill "I'M A LIBERAL AND I DON'T GIVE A DAMN WHAT THE VOTERS IN MY DISTRICT WANT" Foster and Alexi "I LOVE MY MOB BUDDIES" G. BUT unfortunately the voters in this state allowed Pat Quinn to retain his death grip on Illinois. For the life of me I can't understand how anyone could vote for that boob, but of course the teachers' unions pushed him in spite of the fact that schools aren't getting the state money they're supposed to get, that Quinn uses them as a political tool, and that kids are not doing very well in state testing. Unions support slackers, and it's a damned shame they do not get it. They pushed lies about Bill Brady, allowed their members to believe the lies, and hide behind their lies.
So ya, the future of Illinois is bleak. Of course we'll get a tax increase. We'll suffer further deterioration of our credit rating, and the idiot known as Quinn will keep borrowing money (in concert with Madigan) and further putting our state in the red. It's so sad. So you can understand the lingering depression I'm feeling. I grieve for my state.

Obama Doesn’t Get It
Obama Doesn’t Get It - By Victor Davis Hanson - The Corner - National Review Online
"He seems bewildered (for the first time?) that his popularity as a campaign rhetorician did not last when he became responsible for actual governance. For most of the press conference, a humbled but deer-in-the-headlights Obama half-heartedly argued that the populist outrage against his own massive debt, huge wasteful government, and elitism was really outrage against the economy he inherited, an outrage that he shares. We don’t know it, the president hints, but we are still angry at the Bush years, and yesterday mistakenly took our wrath out on Obama’s methodical, albeit too slow, efforts at recovery. In short, there was little admission whatsoever that Obama’s message and the way he pushed it turned off millions — there was no repentant Clinton, circa autumn 1994, here; instead, a shocked Obama who seems hurt that we do not appreciate him."
EGOMANIAC who can't figure out that we just don't like the crap he's been pushing. Geez, the hubris of the putz continues to astound.

We Need More Skilled Workers
We Need More Skilled Workers
"Equally important, we will promote the concept that essential skilled work is noble, is useful and creates the independent mindset and self-confidence in the individual that has resonated throughout our nation’s history — and can rebuild America with a solid foundation once again."
Take it from a retired college teacher--not everyone should go to college. This notion that each and every kid who goes to school should focus on college is BALONEY. We need MORE SKILLED WORKERS. We need people who know how to build things, fix things, and people who have ideas on how to design things. Those people are crucial. We've become a nation of whiners--too lazy to take jobs that some people think are beneath them. BUNK. I worked in a big box store selling tools and met a lot of different people--some contractors who were amazing folks who knew how to take the rawest material and build wonderful things and some who either knew how to fix stuff or could figure it out. I met just regular people who came in and had no clue how to use a tool or what was the right tool to select for a project. They knew they either took pride in doing something themselves or they just didn't have the money to hire someone to do the job--so they needed stuff to do the job right. Thankfully I am the child of self-made parents--who taught themselves how to do just about everything and worked hard. My dad in particular taught me how to do stuff--I remember him changing an engine in our garage. I learned at an early age that changing the oil in your car wasn't hard and it was a pretty cheap thing to do. My spouse is the product of working class folks too--and today we're both doing pretty well--because we scrimped and saved and knew that if we did stuff "on the cheap" we'd do ok.
More skilled workers--don't ship your kid to college if they're not suited for it. Send them to technical school--teach them how to DO STUFF, not just whine about their lack of talent. Workers have made our country great. We can do it again!

Pajamas Media » Suggestions on How We Should Treat Our Congressmen
"Right now, we have all our legislators throwing around trillions of dollars and coming up with new laws to inflict on us (it’s going to be illegal now not to own health insurance; did they even have health insurance when the Founding Fathers were around?). And as we see with people like Charlie Rangel and Maxine Waters, these legislators just do whatever they want and act like they own the country. So basically we traded having one big, petty tyrant pushing us around for a bunch of little, even pettier tyrants all competing to push us around."
"It’s pretty simple: We treat all legislators like lying crooks, because they self-identified as such by running for office; normal people don’t desire to spend other people’s money. Right now, being a representative or a senator is a high-paying, prestigious job that any idiot could do (and some exceptional idiots have done it for years), but if there were a few more drawbacks to being a legislator, maybe the worst of them would stay away. And if they don’t, at least maybe they’ll stay in line more if we let them know we consider them to be the worst of the worst and are keeping an eye on them. Then perhaps they’ll listen to those of us who really are supposed to be in charge in this country, the ones who actually work for a living.

Economic doldrums leave Americans in no mood for Obama’s liberal agenda | Washington Examiner
"The Arizona law and the ground zero mosque issues are not likely to be dispositive issues in most congressional races this year. But they are additional baggage for the Obama Democrats who find themselves, as the economy languishes, on the defensive on the issues they thought would win over the bitter clingers."
Put me (and a lot of people I know) in the "bitter clingers" category. At this point it's only prayer that will keep our psyches together--we pray we can hang on until November 2nd, and then pray our country won't go down the toilet with no-bama in charge until 2012 when we can vote him out of office.

But they are additional baggage for the Obama Democrats who find themselves, as the economy languishes, on the defensive on the issues they thought would win over the bitter clingers."
Put me (and a lot of people I know) in the "bitter clingers" category. At this point it's only prayer that will keep our psyches together--we pray we can hang on until November 2nd, and then pray our country won't go down the toilet with no-bama in charge until 2012 when we can vote him out of office.

How do you know when no-bama is lying?
When his lips are moving.....
He just proposed "small business" legislation and said it won't increase the debt. Ya sure. And of course he insinuates the problems with unemployment are all the Republicans' fault. Sorry buddy, not buying that piece of crap. It's all yours no-bama.
And he's going on his 6th vacation of the year.....oh ya, he really relates to the folks in this country. MORON.

Weekly Jobless Claims Post Surprise Jump, Hit 500,000 - CNBC
"New U.S. claims for unemployment benefits unexpectedly climbed to a nine-month high last week, government data showed on Thursday, yet another setback to the frail economic recovery.
Initial claims for state unemployment benefits increased 12,000 to a seasonally adjusted 500,000 in the week ended Aug. 14, the highest since mid-November, the Labor Department said."
One way to judge the economic scene is to drive down a major road. Yesterday I drove east on Rt. 64 here in the western suburbs. Time after time I saw empty stores in mini-malls--Charlestown Mall in St. Charles is a ghost town--lots of empty former "big box" locations--big commercial buildings that used to hold thriving businesses are empty. Things are pretty bad folks and they are not getting better.
Here's another story to show how tough times are: Foreclosure numbers stun Kane committee: 3,880 and counting for this year

FBI: Bank robber leaves debit card behind
August 17, 2010 12:15 PM | No Comments
A woman charged with robbing more than $11,000 from a Waukegan bank Monday was captured less than 40 minutes later after leaving, among other clues, her personal debit card on the teller's counter.
Kimberly Ramirez not only left her debit card, charging documents say, she wrote her demand note -- which read "give me what you got" -- on the back of a prescription made out in her name and left it at the Consumers Credit Union, 2750 Washington St., around 12:57 p.m.
When Waukegan police arrived at her apartment building at about 1:30 p.m., Ramirez was outside her unit and told police she'd locked herself out. Inside the apartment, police found almost $10,000 as well as a black hat, sunglasses and black purse identical to the ones worn by the bank robber, according to a criminal complaint.
Waukegan police also spotted a red vehicle that matched the description of Ramirez's getaway car and pulled it over. The driver told police he had picked up a woman at the credit union and had been paid $1,235 to drive her around, cash the police then recovered, according to the complaint.
Ramirez is not the first bank robber to leave her name behind. In Decemberf 2008, a man charged with robbing a Chicago bank wrote his demand note on the back of his own pay stub.

"What is wrong with Chicago?"
Another child is killed in a predominantly black neighborhood in Chicago. Let's be honest folks, it's not white people or Chinese or Hispanics going into those neighborhoods and killing kids--it's black on black crime. That's the plain facts. Here's another horribly sad story of another black child (but the fact that she's black is irrelevant--except to point out the obvious situation that no one in Chicago wants to admit) who is murdered in her own neighborhood. So horribly sad.

Yes, this is how no-bama views us and what we believe in.
Another gem from Karen (thanks!)
EIGHT THINGS GOD WON'T ASK WHEN YOU MEET HIM FACE TO FACE:
1. God won't ask what kind of car you drove. He'll ask how many people you drove who didn't have transportation.
2. God won't ask the square footage of your house, He'll ask how many people you welcomed into your home.
3. God won't ask about the clothes you had in your closet, He'll ask how many you helped to clothe.
4. God won't ask what your highest salary was. He'll ask if you compromised your character to obtain it.
5. God won't ask what your job title was. He'll ask if you performed your job to the best of your ability.
6. God won't ask how many friends you had. He'll ask how many people to whom you were a friend.
7. God won't ask in what neighborhood you lived, He'll ask how you treated your neighbors.
8. God won't ask about the color of your skin, He'll ask about the content of your character.

Check out this map to see what the "per capita" debt is in your state
Here in Illinois it's $1856. So if I send them a check for that amount they'll stop taxing me? YA SURE--this demon-crat run state will tax you if you stand, sit, die, live, run, walk, drive, skip, jump----get the point? They'll tax you for THINKING ABOUT TAXING. So what's the answer? STOP SPENDING MONEY ON STUPID STUFF like they do here and also on the federal level. Stop trying to pay for stuff that government should have no business being involved in.

So one day last week I came home from running errands and my neighbor had kids in their backyard pool (again--it's been fairly much of a daily occurrence, and they love to be rather loud and boisterous). Well the little urchins started doing the MARCO/POLO thing (one weekend they did it for over an hour and it's maddening!) and I said, in a conversational voice (and this is a DIRECT QUOTE), "Hey guys, give it a break. You have no idea how annoying it is to hear marco/polo every 2 seconds." And then I went inside. Well the mom comes screaming over to my house, rang the door bell and went into a tirade about how I yelled at the kids (which I didn't) and how I owe them an apology (which I don't). Well she went into a further tirade about how wonderful her kids were and that I had no right to talk to them. I was stunned--told her I was sorry she felt that way. Finally couldn't take anymore (she went on and on about how respectful they are, they don't come home at 11:30pm playing music (don't know what that is about), yada yada yada and said "whatever" and closed the door. So her little urchin lied to her. Well the bonus is they haven't been in the pool since then and it's been peaceful around here. Next time I hear them out there with their friends I'll just run the lawnmower next to the fence to have my own friendly noise! Oh ya, and I guess (according to the mom) I'm not supposed to EVER (even if in my own yard) say a word to her kids.
No, I'm not being nasty about it--it is their house and they have the right to have whomever over they want, but PLEASE at a certain point it's annoying and pretty un-neighborly. I'd love to have a 10 foot fence on that side of the yard blocking their trashy above ground pool (no deck and kind of looks like it belongs in a trailer park), but that's obviously not going to happen. But good God people, try behaving like adults and perhaps thinking that your snotty little urchin might have exaggerated a bit! This woman went from zero to 90 is a second without considering that we are pretty darned good neighbors who DON'T make noise and take nice care of our house and yard. Get over yourselves.

Illinois Review
George Bush, Queen Elizabeth, and Vladimir Putin all die and go to hell. While there, they spy a red phone and ask what the phone is for. The Devil tells them it is for calling back to Earth.
Next Queen Elizabeth calls England and talks for 30 minutes. When she is finished the devil informs her that the cost is 6 million dollars. She writes him a check.
Finally, George Bush gets his turn and talks for 4 hours. When he Is finished the devil informs him that the cost is $5.00.
When Putin hears this he goes ballistic and asks the devil why Bush got to call the USA so cheaply. The devil smiles and replies: "Since Obama took over, the country has gone to hell, so it's a local call."

So the defense's explanation for Blago is (basically) that he was "accidentally" corrupt. Geez, that certainly doesn't pass the smell test.

Blago is the perfect example of what is wrong with demon-crats and their duped voters. It's time for people to wake up - and I think he provided the caffeine to jog them from their dozing.

Dittos Katie--I want to see Bill Brady as the next governor also
I love Illinois--really. I'd like to stay here and someday (I wish, I wish, I wish) I'd like to see my wonderful smart offspring staying here also, working here, serving the people of this State and raising a family here. I really don't want to leave--in spite of hating Chicago winters! But Illinois has become a burdensome tax-crazy state. Between real estate taxes and income taxes, and sales taxes I don't know if we'll be able to afford to stay here as residents when we retire. We're no different than other people--we know what's happened to Illinois--we've become a joke throughout the country. So if you want the joke to end, if you want to be proud of Illinois again, VOTE FOR BILL BRADY and every other Republican on November 2nd. Please help us rid ourselves of the crooks (also known as demon-crats) who have turned our state into a financial cess-pool.

New Report, More Bad News On Illinois Finances
July 7, 2010
By Bengamin Yount
SPRINGFIELD – It's pretty much common knowledge that Illinois is broke. But a new report gives new insight into just how little money the state actually has and how many unpaid bills continue to pile up.
The July report from Illinois Comptroller Dan Hynes' office details the state's fiscal woes. Too many bills, too little cash, and a new state budget that ignores serious gaps in revenue.

"The cost of harboring illegal immigrants in the United States is a staggering $113 billion a year -- an average of $1,117 for every “native-headed” household in America -- according to a study conducted by the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR)."
I'm not willing to pay the tab on that bill. What part of ILLEGAL doesn't no-bama and his thugs understand? And to add insult to the already outrageous bill no-bama and his thugs have filed suit against Arizona today. Shameful.

So Mr. Quinn: are you buying those new cars so the troopers can leave them in their driveways or are you going to park them at the closed State Police districts? Geez, what an idiot.

This sucks. This guy has served his country honorably and well for many years. It's sad to lose him.
General, thank you for your service and enjoy your retirement. Hopefully in a couple years we'll get rid of the joke we have as president and someone who appreciates a good man like you is the commander in chief. Maybe you'll consider coming back to government service then.

If anyone votes for Pat Quinn they are voting for Rod Blo. Make no mistake, their politics are one and the same.

Years ago my parents had a condo in Destin, Florida and we used to go there and walk the beaches and enjoy wonderful seafood. We often went up to Pensacola and loved going to the naval base museum and enjoyed the drive down the coast and the pristine white beaches. Watch this video. It saddens me greatly.
