Online headline: "Cheney Receives Heart Transplant" -- Don't you know that DIM&DUMBERats are disappointed, both to learn Cheney had a heart, but now has a new one? Don't you know Reid and Pelosi are kicking themselves for not having the 'death panel' in effect so Cheney would have been denied such an operation? Speedy recovery, VP Cheney!

Latest from barackobama.com: "Obamacare means never having to worry about getting sick and running up against a lifetime cap on insurance coverage. It gives parents the comfort of knowing their kids can stay on their insurance until they're 26, and that a "pre-existing condition" like an ear infection will never compromise their child's coverage. * It's about ending the practice of letting insurance companies charge women 50 percent more -- just because they're women. * And Obamacare can save seniors hundreds of dollars a year on prescription drugs -- and gives them access to preventive care that is saving their lives. * President Obama never lost sight of the fact that this reform is about people. People like his own mother, who spent the last years of her life fighting cancer -- and fighting with insurance companies, too." -- Of course, potUS O'Blather isn't telling them that HELL-thScare is not free, and that costs have doubled already, and it's not in force...yet...hopefully, it won't be...ever!

From L-E story: "Again, if the crew conducting the demolition sees anyone at a window -- in an office, a parking garage or a residence overlooking the blast site -- the explosion will be postponed until the observer moves away, because of the risk of flying debris, Hawk said. Spectators at windows and atop a parking garage nearly delayed Wednesday's blast." -- "Spectators at windows and atop a parking garage nearly delayed Wednesday's blast". Huh? Wednesday's 'poof' went off nearly 30 minutes before the announced time, and before a lot more people got there. How much earlier were "they" going to set the charges off?

From above story: "Today's Eagle & Phenix dam blast is to be bigger and earlier than Wednesday's, with the 13th Street bridge and surrounding streets closing by 9:30 a.m. or earlier, authorities said." -- Guess some preacher's sermon may get his point across with a "bang".

Susan Andrews is being credited with getting the last SPLOST passed, and she doesn't attempt to dissuade any one about it, yet she's bailing out before the truth of the matter comes to light that the SPLOST projections will be well under funding 'her projects', and that neither she nor the next Superintendent will be able to get a new SPLOST passed to finish 'her projects'. Maybe her pension should be escrowed and applied to the SPLOSTR shortages.

The report on State Corruption lost it's credibility when it gave Illinois a "C". Illinois is a state with 2 former governors now sitting in jail, not because they were doing anything different than other governors, but they lost favor of their party's committee, and the media was turned loose on them.

From the Council's "Public Agenda": "Nathaniel Sanderson: The recent developments in the Travon Martin case in Sanford, Fla." -- Why is the Columbus Council allowing such to take time away from needed, pertinent, City business?

It's near the end of March...Have the results of the revenues of the 2 LOST 1% taxes, and the MCSD's SPLOST tax been released for 2010 and 2011? Especially interested in the MCSD's receipts as the project list was so over the top compared to previous LOST/SPLOST tax revenue years.

It was bad enough for a US Vice President to utter "this is a Big F***ing Deal" over a live microphone during an official White House announcement of the DIM&DUMBERat Congress passing the unread "HELL-thScare Bull", but now potUS O'Blather is selling campaign t-shirts with "Healthcare - Still a BFD" printed on them. Now, I want to see him and his wife, and both daughters wearing those shirts every day until he's booted out of office!

Why is it that Life Insurance has gone down as much as 60% in recent years, yet potUS O'Blather's HELL-thScare Bull has caused health care insurance premiums to double in the last two years?
