Online story: "Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke sent tremors through U.S. financial markets on Wednesday when he announced that the Fed plans to pull back on its extraordinary efforts to help the economy later this year." -- You know, if the economy was primed for recovery like Judas 00-bama and his Tsars keep insisting, Bernanke's comments would have been a confirmation, and sent the market up.

Wonder which came first.. the handicap tag or November 2012?

I've been wondering why we have been bombarded with lawyer ads looking for mesothelioma/asbestos related cases. I had thought most asbestos situation had been eliminated decades ago (or special handling equipment sorta neutralized the dangers), but an ad today mentioned the existence of a $38 BILLION dollar settlement trust. With that much at stake, some lawyers might eat asbestos in order for their estate to file a claim.

Frederick Douglass called the Republican Party the party of Freedom and Progress. Wonder what he would say about his descendant working for Sanford Bishop?

In 1963, John F Kennedy spoke in the shadows of Russia's Berlin Wall, and said, "I am a Berliner". In 1987, from the same spot, Ronald Reagan said, "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall.". In 2013, Judas 00-bama spoke from the other side of the wall. Guess he was showing Putin how flexible he is after the election.

---

You know, Judas 00-bama speaking from the Eastern side of the Brandenburg gate makes you wonder which side he was wanting to cut back on nuclear bombs. One thing for sure, he drew larger crowds... MUCH larger crowds when he spoke before the Germans observed him in action.

---

So The IRS union is getting $70MILLION in bonuses, even during the revelation of its current practices. 6th Grade school crossing guards were shut out from White House tours. Doesn't seem like a fair swap out.

---

What are the proposed $70,000,000.00 in IRS 'bonuses' for... Bounties for how many "conservative" 501 (c) 3 or 4 applications they rerouted to File 13?

---

Why are Congress members do eager to accept the NSA excuses that it has stopped 50 plus acts of terrorism, yet didn't stop the Boston Marathon or Major Hasan?

---

All these scandals have really done is bumped Judas 00-Obama's passive attitude toward the Bomber Brothers dastardly deeds out of the headlines.

---

One thing for sure, costume stores should never rent/sell "young George "I cannot tell a lie" Washington" costumes to Judas 00-bama or any Clinton.

---

Looks like DUMBERats & RINOs are backtracking on the NSA scandal. Just wait until some more of their sexting between them and their interns erupt, and see if they feel the same.

---

Seems Visa is upping its "nannyism". CB&T claims it is not the one putting a "warm block" on credit/debit cards of late. We've had to deal with 4 recent such happening while on vacation. Seems Visa is looking at every out-of-town activity as "suspicious activity" so it calls your home phone to ask. Yeah, right, you're on vacation, you're not at your home phone to confirm 'it's you', so Visa assumes it should block your card. Go by and MAKE your bank put your cell number the one to call if questions arise.

---

The NSA says Edwin Snowden has done irreparable damage to our country. Well, I say that the Judas 00-bama administration has done more irreparable damage to our country, PLUS seeing that we never trust (at least not in a POSITIVE way) a politician again.

Chicago...a former fireman, convicted of beating his wife to death, is drawing his pension while serving in jail. To boot, he's not eligible for parole until he's at least 100. Even worse, his pension check is going to his daughter. Illinois law is quoted as making this legal, but if so, why doesn't the prison garnishee his pension check to partially pay for his accommodations ?

Online story: "Doctors all over the country are opting out of accepting insurance and government subsidies as payment for healthcare and taking cash paying customers. It seems that Obamacare is forcing them to reevaluate how they provide the best healthcare to their patients. Not only does it cut out the middle man (government and insurance companies), but it also drastically reduces prices for patients; some by as much as half!" -- Been doing this for 30+ years, and can easily say my med expenses, even with two major surgeries, have been way below half of what insurance payments alone would have been. Unfortunately, I could get arrested next year for continuing.

L-E headline/story: "CSU: Teacher survey used ‘questionable methodology’ in low rating

Teaching program gets overall rating of no stars * In the National Council on Teacher Quality report, CSU’s teaching program is one of five in Georgia to receive an overall rating of no stars with a consumer alert designation, along with Albany State, Armstrong Atlantic State, Augusta State (now known as Georgia Regents University Augusta) and the University of West Georgia. " -- CSU complains, but too many GA universities and colleges did receive good marks, si there seems to be an adequate supply of smoke to imply there's a 'fire' somewhere. maybe it started smoldering when the CSU staff gave Dr Mescon a vote of "No Confidence" a few years ago.

L-E headline: "AFGHANISTAN * Afghans quit talks with Taliban before they begin " -- Why would Karzai want to sit in with a the Taliban and a Judas 00-bama representative to discuss Afghanistan's future?

---

L-E headline: "FBI tells Congress it uses drones in United States " -- Yeah, and most of them sit in Congress with a "D" behind their names.

---

From the "what did I tell ya" department - L-E headline: "FBI ends hunt for Hoffa’s body " -- Yep, some Mafioso guy got his property improved on our tax dollar. And besides, what would finding Hoffa's body even do (other than eliminating "Big Dig 3")?

---

L-E headline: "Suit over player’s likeness threat to NCAA’s revenue " -- Ypu know, I'm glad this is coming about... the NCAA has always had such strict rules about a college player getting revenue while in college, yet the NCAA has never had a problem letting Sports Illustrated et al use college players' images on the covers. At the same time, the NCAA revenues have benefited by more fans filling the stadiums, and more TV viewers.
