From the "Top 10 Stupidly Politically Correct HuffPost "headlie" department: "Suspect was Homecoming prince * Details emerged of the chaotic scene in the Wash. high school cafeteria when alleged gunman ****** ******* opened fire on his classmates." -- Good grief! The (_*_) walked into the lunchroom, killed
one and shot several other students, then killed himself, and the HuffPost calls him a "suspect" and "alleged gunman"? The only thing "suspect" or "alleged" is the HuffPost being called a "news service".
---
Fox News online headline: "Gunman arrested after allegedly killing two California deputies, injuring another and bystander" -- What's "alleged" when the police report the capture of the (_*_) who killed two deputies, and wounded another and a California civilian? On the other hand, why was the (_*_) "arrested" while breathing?

Guards attacked by Islamist in Canada; English soldier beheaded on streets if London by Islamists; Islamist guns down soldiers on Texas military base; NYPD officers attacked by Islamist with axe... You know.. how long can Obamageddon deny jihadists terrorism?
---
Online headline: "Police confirm hatchet assault a terrorist attack * Officials said 32-year-old **** ********, who attacked NYPD officers with a hatchet Thursday, was a self-radicalized Muslim convert." -- Yea! A headline that the (_*_) isn't called "suspected" or "alleged"!

Two elementary schools in Newington, CT have canceled Halloween carnivals/parades because they might offend some families that don't celebrate Halloween. Good grief.. does that mean Christmas and Easter are on the chopping block, too, because of Islamic families? Thank good ness July 4th is not during the school year!

Online story: "As the grand jury investigation into the shooting death of Michael Brown by Ferguson, Mo., Police Officer Darren Wilson continues, more information about evidence and witness testimony continues to leak. * Eyewitness (as opposed to "I-witnesses" ) testimony has already confirmed that Brown did not have his hands up when he was shot, and the recently released county autopsy report indicates the same. In addition, forensic tests proved that Michael Brown’s blood was present on Wilson’s gun, uniform, and interior car door panel, corroborating his statement that the two struggled for control of Wilson’s gun in the car. * Now the toxicology report has been released showing tetrahydrocannabinol, the active ingredient in marijuana, and the Post’s sources said the levels in Brown’s body may have been high enough to trigger hallucinations,” -- You know, Brown was a 6'4", 292 pound 18 year old.. and the amount of consumption of marijuana to show such levels would have been way more than simple "recreational use amounts.
---
Online story: "Georgia Democrats are using the fatal shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, to rally black voters ahead of the Nov. 4 election, with Republicans calling the move "race-baiting." -- Well, it is "race-baiting", especially after revelations of the testimony in the grand jury investigations..
---
You know there is definitely a difference in what forms leadership in the Republican and Democratic Parties. When a Republican leader takes a stand on an issue , all Republicans stand with him. When a Democratic politician makes a stand on anything but "free something",1 stands in agreement and 99 " boo" until he/she promises them something else in return for their votes.

Thought I'd seen the maximum nannyism you could inject into a high school football, but I saw a player kicked out if a game for "taunting" the other teams sideline & fans. In a huge rivalry game, a lineman (who was personally attacked by said school rivals before the same game last year) raised and pumped his arms up following a teammates 30+ yard burst up the middle for a touchdown, and got ejected for unsportsmanlike celebration. Pathetic GHSA!
---
By the way.. game results were Pacelli 41 and B****stone 20.. but the game wasn't that close.
---
I am looking for information explaining possibly one of the worst overturn in the history of football. Homecooking comes to mind, but it's still short of explaining this: Pacelli pooch kicked the opening kickoff. A Brookstone player muffed the catch, and a Pacelli player came up with it. Both teams sent in their respective line-ups for the ensuing play. Before the play was started, another whistle blew, and a referee said it was Brookstone's ball. The teams re-switched their line-ups. What happened!

Correction: In yesterday tribute to Mike Gaymon, I erringly stated Mike was moving from Columbus.. It was an honest mistake on my part.. Several weeks ago when this was announced, I inferred to him that now he would be free to take the reins of the Crime Prevention Committee. I guess he thought I would think he was joking when he told me "NO"! abd that he was moving to Florida. Everything else said/inferred is true.. we'll miss him at the Chamber, but we'll benefit from him staying in our community.

Soapbox moment: After bantering back with the "official: FaceBook page of the proponents of the TAD referendum, one thing is perfectly clear:
Whether this website is going to issue or challenge information, someone of knowledge should be the official responder, and that person should be personally identified.

So far, responses to question/challenges have been typically veiled liberal "nanny-nanny-poo-poo".. devoid of transparency AND truth.

Online story: "From the “you can’t make this stuff up” section of Americana, it seems that all is not peaceful or agreed upon among Michael Brown’s family. * His mother, Leslie McSpadden, has requested that Brown’s image and memory not be used for self-serving business and profit purposes. Brown’s grandmother and at least one cousin disagree. * A police report describes a car pulling up and several people getting out. One of those people, was reported to be Michael Brown`s Mom, Lesley McSpadden. A witness described McSpadden yelling ‘You can`t sell this s%$&” One of the relatives, who was selling, reportedly demanded McSpadden show a document proving she had a patent. * A patent…okay, well, whatever documentation Grandmama and the relatives needed, is beside the point. There was a street brawl that evening that resulted in the cousin, Tony Petty, being hit so hard in the face by McSpadden (Brown’s mother) that he was taken to a local hospital. Then, supposedly McSpadden took off with not just some merchandise and other assorted SWAG, but the cash box" -- Hmmm.. any chance Brown's family is related to Dr King, Jr's family?

Election info for Columbus/Muscogee Cty, GA: There are 4 referendum items on our ballots..
The 1st one is a proposed Constitutional Amendment to prohibit our legislature from increasing the maximum state income tax rate. While it shouldn't be necessary, it might be a smart safeguard should Democrats ever regain power. Vote "YES"!
The 2nd item is another proposed Constitutional Amendment to add penalties to reckless driving tickets. Innocuously, the focus is on putting the extra penalties in a "Brain and Spinal Injury Trust fund lockbox" for rehab and care of such injuries. We know from experience, that special "lockboxes" are as safe as candy placed on an anthill. Look at the "lockboxes" Algore put our Social Security investments in, and the "Hope Scholarship lockbox" Zell Miller put lottery revenues in. Vote "NO"!
The 3rd is a proposed state-wide referendum which allows our universities to forego any property taxes on their dormitory/student housing buildings.. forever. It would one thing if universities kept housing facilities at low rate, but they don't. One of my daughters dorm rate for a typical dorm cubical charged more for 8 months of use as my other daughter's 12 month use of a bigger off-campus apartment owned in the private sector. Our universities are not our friends.. they are doing us no special favors in feeding or housing our children. The cost of school food and housing programs exceed off campus services, and the off campus providers are not exempt from the expense of property taxes. Exempting universities further will add more tax costs to the private sectors expenses. Vote "NO"!
The 4th item is our local "Special Election" giving local politicians increased power of Eminent Domain, and a bypass to increase taxes and cost on lower income housing. It's just a bad deal all around. The "committee" is compose of people who have figured out how such a power will benefit themselves, and more than likely leave taxpayers holding failed projects and tax debt for paying off the bonds. Vote "NO".. and if you plan on voting more than once, Vote "NO" as often as you can.
---
Here's what a vapid local government can do with expanded Eminent Domain powers:
VOTE "NO"!
---
Online headline and link: "INDIANA * ‘My house is not for sale’: Indiana residents fight city’s home-seizure plan"
VOTE "NO"!
---
Online story/link: "In 2007 the school board and the City made the tax allocation district (TAD) agreement in which the school system would give the city its share of increased property tax revenue generated in the downtown section of East Savannah. In return, city officials said they would pay back $10 million to the school board by December 2014 and waive fees for building permits, inspections and water connections. School officials made plans to use the TAD agreement money to help pay to replace the problematic, 50-year-old Spencer Elementary School campus downtown" --
VOTE "NO!
PS - Special thanks to BCers for passing these links to me for distribution.

Online headline: "Ahead of the busiest shopping season of the year, 77 Sears and K-Mart stores are closing, cutting 5,300 jobs. * Most locations will close before the holiday season. So many are holding going out of business sales rather than gearing up for seasonal promotions." -- Hmmm.. let me tell you.. a lot more than 5,300 jobs are being eliminated.. That's just an average of 68 or so per store, and believe, personal knowledge of staffing a department knows this number is fictitious.. at best. Additionally, it does not include the number of traditional part time jobs created during the Christmas selling season. Wanna bet that OObamaCRAP is deeply seeded in the decision to close marginal stores.

Online story: "Auburn School District in Washington State is facing intense criticism for a decision that some see as both dangerous and hypocritical. District officials have agreed to allow an elementary school boy of the Sikh faith to carry a dagger to school." -- You know,, Christian kids have been expelled for using "finger guns", nibbling Pop-Tarts into a shape of a gun (as only liberals could determine), and for wearing crosses around their necks. By this school systems' decision makers' "logic", if a child worshipped Satanism and wanted to bring his AK-47 to school, it would be "OK".
---
Online headline: "MSNBC’s Chris Matthews: Democrat Candidates Treating Obama Like He ‘Has Ebola’" -- Hey Chris... maybe you should get that "leg tingle" checked out again.
---
Online headline: "850 voters in NYC are officially 164 years old" -- It's NYC.. I guarantee there are no Republicans in the voter registration/records office.

Online story: "According to a Winston-Salem Journal report, the State Board of Elections discovered the potential illegal voters Tuesday night when the N.C. Division of Motor Vehicles ran a search for DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) licenses. The 145 DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) recipients whose names appear on the SBOE’s voting rolls will be sent letters requesting documentation that they are citizens, the report noted. * DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) beneficiaries in North Carolina are able to obtain drivers licenses, but they are not able to vote. * Nearly 10,000 names on the rolls are tagged by the DMV as "legally present," according to elections and transportation officials. " "not able to vote"? Yeah, right.. can't you see what the mainstream media stories and Democratic Party ads are going to be in the time left between today and November 4th?

Online quote source: " “People with clear, written goals, accomplish far more in a shorter period of time than people without them could ever imagine.” - Brian Tracy" -- See. here's another guy that understands that Obamageddon's failures are by design.

Online headline/story: "DHS faulted for expired, questionable pandemic response supplies at Ebola hearing * Inspector General John Roth said the department spent $9.5 million starting in 2006 on pandemic protective equipment, as well as nearly $7 million on antiviral drugs for emergency workers. " -- Whoa! Let's back up a moment.. 2006? Hey, Bush43 president then.. How can mainstream media ignore that Bush43 saw the need then, and Obamageddon just let the ball drop.. now.. accidentally or intentionally is what mainstream media has to play with..Pssst... don't expect a mainstream media apologoy.
---
Glad to see a committee to find a replacement for Mescon at CSU has been established.. a rule that should have been part of the elimination process for selecting the new CSU president wasn't. In the future, anyone on a previous search committee that selected Mescon in the first place should not be invited back.
---
LIV's L-E "soundoff": "Perdue and his NRA buddies are the ones running the most, worst, and most untrue attack ads. I know, because I was planning to vote for him until his attacks changed my mind." -- Nice try, Mayor Obamalinson.. but this is the one area you are transparent as hell on.
---
Hmmm.. have you noticed the L-E has sorta stopped reporting the number of murders in Columbus? Try to imagine what the number would be if we didn't have indigent ER services for gunshot wounds...
---
L-E headline: "Kentucky prepares to host No. 1 Miss. St." -- Excuse my excitement, but it's the first time a game promoting headline has read "No. 1 Miss. St." ...ever! Hail State!
