From the "say what" department - Online story: "WASHINGTON -- The Obama administration announced on Thursday it will do a case-by-case review of deportations, allowing many undocumented immigrants without criminal records to stay in the United States indefinitely and apply for work permits" -- Since being an 'undocumented immigrant' is a crime in itself, how can any 'undocumented immigrant' (a.k.a. ILLEGAL Alien) not be a criminal?
---
L-E headline: "Rep. Sanford Bishop says all Fort Benning commanders looking into cutting costs" -- Representative Bishop, heal thyself..... FIRST!
---
L-E story: "The Loft will present the second annual Backyard Brewfest on Oct. 15, from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. in the Rankin Courtyard. The festival will feature more than 100 craft beers, live music and food. This year, the Loft is also offering a wine-tasting. Tickets can be purchased in advance at The Loft for $30 or on the day of the event for $35. --
$30/$35 dollars for a beer tasting? Sounds more like a beer guzzling. Besides, who can taste anything after 8-to-10 beers worth?

L-E story: "Columbus has been chosen to host the 2013 state conference of the Georgia Recreation and Park Association, the city announced Thursday. * The 2013 conference, expected to bring about 300 people to Columbus, could have over $1 million in economic impact on the city, said Columbus Convention and Visitors Bureau President Peter Bowden. That would be a $3,333 impact per person. * “This group is in the highest spending category we have,” Bowden said. “These people will come in early and stay later and they’ll sleep one to a room.” -- As POTUS Ronald Reagan would have said, "Well, there you go again...". It's almost criminal, no, it should be categorized as criminal, that government people are known as "the highest spending category we have"! That's taxpayer dollars they are spending!
---
Online headline: "Los Angeles Downgraded By Standard & Poor's, City Drops Credit Rating Agency" -- How did LA avoid this so long? Oh, and I guess LA showed S&P...How can so many elected DIM&DUMBERats actually be so devoid of financial skills and business ethics?
---
potUS O'Blather says he's 'amazed' at how quiet factories are when he visits them...could it simply be the factories are closed because the jobs have been shipped to China?
---
After seeing the unemployment and inflation numbers, potUS O'Blather might better keep those new Million Dollar Canadian buses at the White House in case he needs a fast one-way ticket to Canada.
---
From the 'who'da thunk it" department - Online headline: "Tiger Woods Not a Lock for US Presidents Cup Team" -- 5 years ago, could you imagine Tiger Woods needing 'affirmative action' to make a golf tournament line-up?
---
An online liberal poster claims the unclaimed moneys from the State Farm ruling are given to charities by Pope, McGlamry or Judge Pullen. WRONG! This is simply money taken out of our pockets in new and higher insurance costs which were caused by this ruling, and "they" are getting credit for being 'good guys' while YOU and I actually are funding it.
---
Wonder if the Mayor needs to recuse herself from serving since he old (and hubbie's ongoing) law firm is so embroiled with cases bringing Judge Pullen to task? The L-E 'conveniently' excludes any mention of Mayor Obamalinson's previous and ongoing connection with the Expedia and State Farm rulings.
---
The bus trip is over for potUS O'Blather, but the stock market and the future of America continue the roller coaster turmoil of lack of leadership.
---
You know, there was something more comforting seeing potUS O'Blather step off the bus, than has ever been perceived watching his step off Air Force 1. Air Force 1 is for leaders; getting off a bus just suits him better.
---
From L-E's "Today in History" : "In 1951, the owner of the St. Louis Browns, Bill Veeck , sent in Eddie Gaedel, a 3-foot-7 little person, to pinch-hit in a game against Detroit. (In his only major league at-bat, Gaedel walked on four pitches and was replaced at first base by a pinch-runner.) " -- Talk about rewriting history! I hardly think a 3'7" midget would have been referred to as a "little person" in 1951. What's next for the L-E, reprinting Uncle Remus Tales in the King's English?
---
L-E headline/story: "Jon Huntsman turns to Twitter to criticize Perry * “To be clear. I believe in evolution and trust scientists on global warming. Call me crazy,” Huntsman tweeted." -- I'll go you one better Mr Huntsman, you're a 'big Twit'.
---
L-E story: "WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama has sworn off special-interest money to pay for his re-election bid." -- "sworn off special-interest money"? What semantics. Every dollar received is from "special interests", just as donations to his opponents are also "special interest money", as in especially interested in getting potUS O'Blather out of Washington.

Looks like Judy F. Brouillette is on her local DIM&DUMBERat soap box of confusion... again. She'll rants for taxing corporations out of business until she finds out businesses have abandoned this country so they can stay in business and at least support the necessary white collar jobs that can survive the government tax attack. She needs to be branded with a CAPITAL "D" across her forehead so even moderate D&D's will be forewarned of her spewings.

L-E headline: "Paris Hilton opens new handbag store in Manila " -- Hey, Judy, ask her if she's having them made in the USA for Philippine export.
