With a reminder from a fellow BCer - Looking back 20+ years... Ross Perot was right.. never thought I'd say that in the Breakfast Club, as I hold him responsible for Clinton being elected as he sucked votes out of Bush41's pocket, and Clinton won with solely liberal votes of 43%. In other words, there was a landslide 57% against Clinton's ideas. NAFTA was one of those Clinton ideas.. Clinton promised that NAFTA would result in an increase in the number of high quality jobs for Americans that it would reduce illegal immigration. Perot responded that if NAFTA was implemented there would be a "giant sucking sound" as thousands of businesses and millions of jobs left this country. Boy was Perot right!

LIV's L-E "soundoff": "As it turns out, the anti-cannibis campaign in Colorado going on now is paid for by the Mexican cartel." -- Good grief... the Mexican cartels will eventually be the primary suppliers. This guy/gal has no clue about the basics of business transformations.. like Prohibition, it was the "distributors" of the illegal stuff" who were prepared with production,inventory, and distribution outlets that became the legal distribitors.

LIV's L-E "soundoff": "I would have voted for McCain in 2008, but he chose crazy lady Palin. Romney would have been the biggest disaster that ever attacked America. That's why I voted for Obama twice; no better choices." -- Good grief.. no one voted for Obamageddon, especially the second time, who would vote for a Republican under any circumstance. What we have is another lib with voter's remorse.

LIV's L-E "soundoff": "So many people complain about Obama. At least he's trying to do something while those who complain can't walk, chew gum and spit at the same time." -- "at least he's trying to do something"? I think this lib did summarize Obamageddon's skill set though,, all he can do is walk, chew, and spit at the same time.

Atheist lawsuits to stop others from praying shouldn't even be accepted by a court. Since they do not believe in God/Jesus, what standing does the court system see for atheists to object for others to pray?

For general info, this is a YouTube video of the arrest of the Travis County DA for whom the Grand Jury of her heavily Democratic county true billed a complaint about Governor Perry's veto.

Just for everyone's info.. we had a celebrity lib in town this week. He came into town to speak at a funeral. I actually applaud of local media for not making a media circus out of his visit , as, like previously mentioned, it was for a funeral, but according to the post-funeral story.. there were but 175 compelled to attend.

You know.. after watching the robbery video of the 6' 4", 292 pound 18 year old "teen" manhandle.. bully.. the convenience store clerk, I "feel" pretty sure this was not the first offense of this 6' 4", 292 pound "teen". Would love to see his probable rap sheet. Another thing I'd like to see is his college acceptance letter.

HuffPost "headlie": Westboro Baptist Church targets Williams' funeral * The Christian group that has notoriously protested soldiers' funerals has plans to protest Robin Williams' funeral." -- You know.. only mainstream media would highlight a group of wackos assembled under the Westboro mantle as Christians, or Baptist for that matter. It's not that the HuffPost is concerned about the disturbance caused for the friends and family of Robin Williams, it is just a HuffPost opportunity to associate Westboro wackos to Christians and Baptists.

HuffPost headline: "Ferguson Police Released Robbery Video Despite DOJ Concerns" -- huh? What was the DOJ concern.. that the 6' 4", 292 pound "teen" would be seen for something other than the choir boy image the DOJ is planning to paint Brown as?
---
From story above: "The Ferguson Police Department on Friday released a video that allegedly shows Michael Brown robbing a convenience store. Critics lashed out at police, saying that the footage's release was an attempt to disparage Brown's character." -- "an attempt to disparage Brown's character"? Good grief.. the 6' 4" 292 pound "teen" did a good job of disparaging his own character when he failed to cooperate with a police request to get out of the street.
---
From above story: "CNN revealed on Saturday that the Department of Justice found out about the video earlier this week and asked police not to make it public. According to CNN, the DOJ was worried that the footage would spark more violence in Ferguson." -- Hmmm... it's somewhat ironic that CNN would be concerned.. it was CNN who wouldn't release info about the "tree chipping" executions inside Saddam Hussein's Place so CNN would not be removed from Saddam's party "A-List". What CNN was most likely worried about the video is that CNN would have a harder time apologizing for and excusing the looters' crimes.
---
Online story: "After a relatively calm Friday in Ferguson, Missouri, tension flared again early Saturday morning as protesters rushed into a convenience store that Michael Brown was accused of robbing and were confronted with tear gas from police wearing riot gear.-- Hmmm, I guess the looters figured the store had been restocked since the Governor invoked the curfew.

Saw a reminder that "open enrolment" for OObamaCRAP begins in about 3 months.. Excuse me, but with only, by Obamageddon's figures, 8,000,000 of some 47,000,000 who didn't have insurance getting enrolled earlier this year, why would Obamageddon shut down the other 39,000,000 from enrolling the rest of Spring, Summer or Fall?

L-E headline/story: "Medicaid expansion would save Wisconsin $206M * Wisconsin Democrats are keeping the pressure on Republican Gov. Scott Walker to expand Medicaid eligibility with a new report that shows the move would save the state hundreds of millions of dollars over the next three years." -- Excuse me, but how do Democrats claim that Wisconsin would save money on Medicaid expansion if the federal government was allowed to take over? The federal program would need $206 Million ..PLUS the operating funds to run the program, and it's going to need MORE than $206 Million tax dollars out of Wisconsin workers pockets.

L-E headline/story: "Columbus State University roaring with transformation, plans to raise about $125 million * The not-so quiet phase of the university’s new fundraising effort is nearing the official roll-out of what will be called the First-Choice Comprehensive Campaign. It already has raised $51 million toward the goal of approximately $125 million by 2019" -- Yeah.. they already raise upwards of an additional $18,000,000.00 a year off "mandatory fees" parents have to pay in addition to their childrens' tuition, books, food, and housing. CSU will get that much in 7 years simply by continually "blackmailing" parents.

HuffPost headline: "Harvard unleashes swarm of robots" -- Ooops, my bad.. thought Harvard Law had its summer graduation exercise.

How does Mayor Obamalinson even conceive of the idea that if a $3.9 Billion dollar high speed train is built between here and Atlanta that it will be profitable the first year.. for that matter, any year. Warren Buffett, who owns Burlington Northern Santa Fe, sure isn't interested in the concept as he doesn't see passenger service being profitable or he would already have built it. Warren Buffett is a visionary.. Mayor Obamalinson just thinks she is.
