From a fellow BCer: "In regard to Clayburn's racist comments, about voter ID laws, it is enlightning to learn that Mr. Clayburn's sacred cow, organized unions, do require ID cards to be shown before their members are allowed to vote during union elections." --- Online quote source: "A person without a sense of humor is like a wagon without springs. It's jolted by every pebble on the road." - Henry Ward Beecher" -- Sorta sums up the whole liberal political correctness constipation problem. --- Online quote source: ""My formula for living is quite simple. I get up in the morning and I go to bed at night. In between, I occupy myself as best I can." - Cary Grant" -- I knew it! He was a conservative! No wonder I like his work. --- Online quote service: ""A nation which has forgotten the quality of courage which in the past has been brought to public life is not as likely to insist upon or regard that quality in its chosen leaders today - and in fact we have forgotten." - John F. Kennedy" -- No wonder the current DIM&DUMBERats don't like to use 'party of Kennedy' as slogan. --- Online quote source: ""To wear your heart on your sleeve isn't a very good plan; you should wear it inside, where it functions best." - Margaret Thatcher" -- Hits the liberals number two problem dead smack on the head...The number 1 problem...? Obviously they sit down on their brains --- Online quote service: ""A thoughtful mind, when it sees a Nation's flag, sees not the flag only, but the Nation itself; and whatever may be its symbols, its insignia, he reads chiefly in the flag the Government, the principles, the truths, the history which belongs to the Nation that sets it forth." - Henry Ward Beecher" -- In a nutshell, sorta explains why liberals wanna burn, change, or p*ss on it! --- From L-E story: "Police are looking for two suspects, both black men in their early 20s with low haircuts." -- "low haircuts"? Does anyone have an idea what a 'low haircut' is? --- Socialist L-E "soundoff": "Our prison/slave labor is the mark of a degenerate society. Organized labor is the mark of a free and democratic society. To promote and profit from the former is to embrace Empire over Republic." -- "to promote and profit"? How do these people look at something with such warped perspective? --- Since house on Wildwood that burned was converted to a duplex, how can it have a H1 homestead exemption? In addition, this house bought in 2004 for $80K is valued at only $57K for tax eveluation purposes under some 'moratorium'. You have to wonder if the tax assessors office were run efficiently whether we actually need to have politicians trying to get rid of the tax freeze. There's probably more money not being properly collected that the budget needs. --- L-E headline/story: "Man who was shot in left arm walks out of hospital * Police left hospital to investigate, victim was gone when they returned * There is no description of the shooting suspect." -- Since he was shot why is he referred to as a "shooting suspect", but more importantly, does Doctors Hospital expect us to believe it treated someone without getting basic information so it could submit the costs to Medicaid? --- L-E headline/story: "UNIVERSITY OF ALABAMA * Police ID man who fell into river at college party * Police have recovered the body of the University of Alabama student who fell into the Black Warrior River during a sorority party aboard a riverboat. * Police Sgt. Brent Blankley says it’s still unclear exactly what happened on the boat. " -- "unclear what happened on the boat"? This is definitely the odds on winner of the 2012 Barney Fife Award. --- It's almost prophetic that universities are setting record enrollments all across the country. This actually gives some credibility to the "Occupy Wherever" demonstrations. Universities seem to be focused on the quantity of education rather than the quality of it . --- If it's not Phil on top of THE leaderboard, we can certainly enjoy Fred being there. ---
