Online headline: "Politician Resigns After Nude Photos Appear Online" -- Ooops, my bad. Thought Weener had won the special election or something. False alarm, just another normal DUMB&DUMBERat.

Franklin Township in Indiana recently sold all its school buses to an private company because of financial reasons, and the private company is going to charge families about $50.00 a month to transport the children to school. Great concept! Parental complaints are mostly based on inconvenience of parents working or children needing to be at different schools at the same time, but parents find ways to pay for day care, so why shouldn't they take responsibility to pay for transportation? The children will benefit if parents actually take their children to school because the kids won't have to endure the excessive amounts of time necessary for a bus to pick up all the children in the AM and to drop them off in the PM, and the tax dollars wasted on busing can now go into the classrooms. Take note, MCSD.

Some economists are now bringing up the possibility of a "double dip". "Double dip"? We've been exposed to a 'quadruple dip' economy for the last 2.5 years; the 'dips' names are O'Blather. Biden-Biden, Pelosi and Reid.

potUS O'Blather says the FAA has lost $250,000,000.00 in airline tax revenues because the FAA is not operating due to him not getting the FFA a budget to operate. Planes are still flying and people are saving Billion dollars a month. Sounds reasonable to just close the FAA altogether.

How can anyone trust potUS O'Blather, Reid and Pelosi? They said if a bill wasn't urgently passed for the TARP, that they couldn't guarantee unemployment to stay under 8%, and that if they didn't raise the debt ceiling, the stock market would drop. DOH!

Online headline/story: "Jaycee Dugard Case: Report Says Criminal Justice System Failed Kidnap Victim, Allowed Phillip Garrido To Roam Free * The report outlines dozens of failures by counselors and psychiatrists, including in 1994 when it was learned that Garrido wore a prosthetic penis during drug screenings. "Garrido would wear a fake penis and use warm Mountain Dew to fool the urine tests conducted with this counselor," the report states. * Yet his parole was not revoked" -- Think about how many tax dollars go for psychiatric evaluation reports and rehab. Execute the such criminals, and we can save billions in wasted tax dollars. Oh, can't you wait for the next Super Bowl commercial for "Do the Dew"?

Online headline/story: "Illinois DREAM Act Signed By Governor Quinn * On Monday, Illinois Governor Pat Quinn signed a law that makes it easier for the children of immigrants--legal or illegal--to pay for college. * Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel also attended the Monday signing. * “Immigrants are a driving force in our city’s cultural and economic life, and opening the way for all Chicago students to earn an excellent higher education will make our city even stronger," Emanuel said in a statement. “I am proud that families and students across Illinois will now have a better shot at the American Dream — which starts with a great education.” -- Wrong! The "American Dream" starts with going through the process of coming to America legally. The Governor says that no tax dollars are being used for this initiative, but like all politicians, he forgot an important word, "YET!".

All along, I thought Senator Chambliss would be a supporter of the debt deal bill signed yesterday; I'm prouder of him than at anytime he's be our Senator. Can't say the same for Isakson... any one know of a challenger in the Republican primary?

L-E headline: "Autopsy can’t find cause of N.H. girl’s death " -- Hope NJ doesn't hire the Casey Anthony jury! It would probably deny the girl is dead because the coroner can't determine how she died.

L-E headline: "Clinton meets Syrian activists" -- Whatta waste of time and money. Sending a woman to negotiate in a Muslim country is kin to insanity. THe only plausible reason for Syrian activists to meet with Hillary would be in hopes her purse in filled with US dollars, and they'll get an opportunity to mug her.
