What can I say... I am an AUbie-liever!

Auburn's Tre Mason rushed for over 300 yards. Hey, Mizzou,, is that "Show Me" enough?

---

You know, there were a lot of upsets yesterday.. Technically, Aubern's win was an upset. Others include OK State, Ohio State and Northern Illinois. Guess the BCS committee's new theme song will be an old Beatles' classic, "Yesterday".

Online story: "Factory workers are getting more overtime, while pay is nearly flat for hotel and restaurant employees. Retirement-age Americans are staying on the job." -- This is the truth of the job market. Factories are not hiring, they are just working some people extra time; consumers, especially business reps, are not traveling or eating out as often, and seniors' fixed income can't keep up with inflation. Spin that, Judas 00-bama!

Online story: "Last year, the U.S. Transportation Safety Administration (TSA) made over $500,000 in loose change that travelers left behind at airport checkpoints. Now, there's a legislative battle over who gets that half million in funds." -- What this means is that when you send your "pocket stuff" through the 'viewers' in one of those plastics boxes, and if you overlook your 'change' you put into that plastic box,some TSA agent is taking it out before the he/she lets another traveler repeat the process. $500,00 is probably a low number as more than likely some TSA agens are pocketing most of the change. I mean, if the TSA sees that 'change', why don't they just point out to the travelers that they have missed their 'change'. Hmmm maybe this was the "chnage", Judas 00-bama was "Hoping" he would get.

Light bulb! Now it makes sense... Judas 00-bama wasn't OFFERING voters "Hope & Cham=nge", he was looking for voters' 'hope & change' for himself!

---

HuffPost headline: "Obama On Iran: Diplomacy Is The Best Approach" -- Good grief... "diplomacy" only works when your opponents know not only what your capabilities are, but that you have the resolve to defend your position. Where in the world has Judas 00-bama demonstrated/proved that?

---

From the "pie in the sky" department - HuffPost story: "KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — Pentagon chief Chuck Hagel said Saturday that Afghanistan's defense minister reassured him that a security agreement with the U.S. will be signed in a timely manner." -- Hmmm, "Afghanistan's defense minister reassured" Hagel

is about as Pakistan reassuring us that it was helping to find Osama bin Laden.

---

HuffPost story: "Former President Bill Clinton weighed in on the late South African President Nelson Mandela, telling CNN he "became a hero because he survived and he thrived and he served." -- So, survivng...thriving... serving... are the three components of being a hero in Clinton's mind ...hmmm so did Idi Amin so was he a "hero" to Clinton?

---

L-E headline: "France tries to rewrite its role in Africa" -- Hmmm, guess France thinks it got away with rewriting its role in Vietnam, so why not do it again...

---

Online story: "SUNBURY, Pa. (AP) — Newlyweds just three weeks removed from their wedding day lured a Pennsylvania man to his death with a Craigslist ad because they wanted to kill someone together, police said." -- Hmm, classic adage material.. "The couple that preys together slays together".

If the primary concern of OObamaCRAP is to make basic preventative medicine available and affordable, there should be no deductible, just a reasonable premium, a reasonable co-pay, and reasonable profit for the insurance companies.

---

The www.barackobama/organizingforaction.com crew is pumping it's fist that 29,000 signed up in the first 2 days of the new & improved OObamaCRAP website.. That's 14,500 per day and if they get that many every day for a full year, the number of sign-ups needed to meet Judas 00-bama's claims will fall 25-30% short

Update on my question about what's going on with the Department of Homeland Security's accumulating vehicles and ammunition. The FEDERAL POLICE FORCE (or Federal Protective Service, or United States Secret Service Uniformed Division as they are also known) is happening, and "it will be better armed that our local police departments. In one of his earliest speeches after his election, Judas 00-bama stated one of his goals was a national security unit that matched our military in size... guess Judas 00-bama is still seeking a dictatorship that's able to withstand a military coupe... maybe this is a reason he's been removing Generals and Admirals from our military ranks that don't 'listen' to him.

L-E story: "A Upatoi man, accused of hitting a Columbus man in the head with a stool and stomping him on the ground, was charged with aggravated assault Saturday." -- Ooops, my bad... but it's not all my fault..the L-E could have run a picture to show it was the other kind of "stool"

Following up on an item from yesterday - Do you think the Indian/Native American populace is more offended by the Washington professional football team being called the "Redskins", or...or..Washington politicians saying it's OK for Bald Eagles to be slaughtered by the blades of windmills?

---

From a L-E story rehashing the 10th "Anniversary" of the death of Kenneth Walker during a drug bust gone bad: " Two crucial errors resulted in a white law enforcement officer gunning down an unarmed black man on the roadside." -- The L-E is fanning the flames of racism by still focusing on the colors of the man killed and the law enforcement officer. Take away the 'color issue", even reverse the scenario, and the incident would still have been tragic, but would have moved on. With the power of buying ink by the barrel, the L-E has a responsibility to be fair and truthful with how it stirs public emotions.

---

There's an item on Council's Agenda that involves swapping City right-of-way green space with a local land developer for another piece of property that abuts a bridge that crosses the Chattahoochee. Why doesn't the City just evoke 'eminent domain' on the property it needs/wants instead of giving away some green space properties that belong to all of Columbus?

---

From a L-E commentary piece by Dana Milbank: " The “feminist nightmare” is recurring. Unbowed by Politico labeling her with this epithet a couple of weeks ago, Michelle Obama continues to do what her critics regard as frightening behaviors. Last week, she assaulted independent women by showing off the White House Christmas decorations." -- For the one gracious act Michelle Obama has performed since she's been "First Lady", this writer considers displaying Christmas decorations an "assault' on independent women? Good grief! May Ms Milbank receive a whole load of coal.

Hmmm, Aaron Murray, injured record setting UGA QB, has signed up to professionally sign autographs for $35.00 a pop. Guess that means kids can no longer walk up to sports personalities and get free autographs. How will fathers explain that to their children?
