Online story: "The U.S. State Department has been handing over billions of dollars in grants for foreign projects -- ranging from cultural exchanges to “climate change” activities -- without adequate oversight or adequate assessment of the risks involved, and sometimes without knowing whether the money was actually spent, according to the department’s Inspector General." -- Hmmm.. we know that this money belongs to us, but our concerns want make Page 1 of mainstream media.. what we need to do is "sell" the entitlement sector that the State Department is giving away money to rich world leaders that could have gone to raising entitlement payouts here.

Know Knothing Knunn says she will go to Washington and change what's wrong with politics. Funny... what's wrong with Washington politics is too many Democrats. We can change that.....

---

David Perdue should make those Know Knothing Knunn ads about "outsourcing" the center of his own election campaign and debates. Perdue knows that government tax policy and regulations have caused businesses to seek savings elsewhere, and he know what tax policies and regulations need to be "fixed" to make it beneficial to keep jobs in America.. Nunn Knows Nothing, like all Democrats, about this.

Wonder if the liberals of Washington State asked the Native Americans there if they preferred to be called "indigenous" versus "Redskins"?

Online quote source: " “To give real service you must add something which cannot be bought or measured with money, and that is sincerity and integrity.” - Douglas Adams" -- Hmmm.. will some one hack into Obamageddon's TelePrompters, and "loop" this?

---

Online headline: "NASA Injects New Funds Into Search for Origins of Life" -- Good grief.. this money would be better used searching for "sincerity and integrity" in an Obamageddon speech, and any Democrat's campaign promise.. of course.. NASA has a better chance to actually find "sincerity and integrity" in outer space.

Online headline/story: "U.S. Stocks Are Sunk by Europe Fears * Stocks tumbled on escalating concerns about global growth prospects, especially in Europe, as new data showed deepening stresses in the continent’s economy and remarks from a leading policy maker highlighted the lack of consensus in dealing with the slowdown." -- Hmmm.. of course.. the real fear is that Obamageddon has always wanted to model the US after France.

Online story: "A Delaware mom was detained after her young daughter allegedly took 249 baggies of heroin to her day care center and — thinking they were candy — gave them to other kids. * The 4-year-old reportedly took a different bag than usual to Hickory Tree Child Care Center on Monday after a pet had soiled her usual backpack. * Cops think the bag belonged to the girl's mom." -- Several things pop out here: 1st, obviously the "mom" didn't even walk her daughter to the day care (or even a bus stop) or she would have seen the backpack her daughter had (in fact, probably didn't get up to feed her daughter breakfast or see her to the door). Secondly, if the daughter had shown up to daycare with a gun, liberals would be ranting about more gun laws to make this even more illegal. Thirdly, since it was 'only' heroin, liberals will campaign to make it legal so the next time, no teachers will be upset at the daughter bringing another batch to daycare. Thirdly..what's with the "cops think the bag belonged to the girl's mom"? Of course it did, and she is a dealer...

Online story: "Police used chemical spray and a stun gun to arrest Vikings defensive tackle Tom Johnson early Sunday after he refused to leave a nightclub, according to the police report. * Johnson, listed at 6-foot-3 and 288 pounds, was arrested early Sunday AM after security officials and police repeatedly told him to leave " -- Hmmm...it took several police/security officers to handle Tom Johnson, and they still had to resort to using pepper spray and a stun gun. Michael Brown was bigger than Johnson, had already pummeled Officer Wilson, and Wilson didn't have backup surrounding him.

Online story: "A Hezbollah attack along Israel’s border with Lebanon wounded two Israeli soldiers, raising concerns about growing destabilization along Israel’s restless northern frontier." -- Hmmm.. isn't Israel's northern border neighbor Syria? Hezbollah, al Qaida, ISIS, ISIL, Koroban et al... why is there so much effort being made by Obamageddon and mainstream media to keep pockets of Islamic jihadists into separate and distinct "groups" when they all have the same purpose and goals?

WTVM9 story: "(Josh McKoon's opponent, Brian) Roslund says his priority is to get jobs for the parents so that they can create a more stable environment for their children." -- Don't ever believe a Democrat candidate is really interested in finding jobs for the jobless. Once people have a job, and see how much it is taxed to support those without jobs, then the Democrats lose voters.

---

WTVM9 story: "Two new school board members adjusted into their new roles as they worked with their counterparts today, October 6, in a school board retreat. * Tonight's training was a yearly requirement that focuses on making sure board members know how to work as a team. * New members Frank Myers and John Thomas were in attendance at tonight's meeting where members were trained on their roles as leaders of the Muscogee County School Board." -- Two new members-elect were in attendance? We have three new members-elect. Where was Kia Chambers?

Online story: "Starting Jan. 1, Wal-Mart told The Associated Press that it will no longer offer health insurance to employees who work less than an average of 30 hours a week. The move, which would affect 30,000 employees, follows similar decisions by Target, Home Depot and others to eliminate health insurance benefits for part-time employees." -- Hey, don't worry OObamaCRAP is waiting for them... DOH! On the other hand, mainstream media, unions, and Democrats will focus on the coldhearted Walmart stripping healthcare from 30,000 workers.. none of these entities will focus on 1,570,000 Walmart employees who are covered, nor that the 30,000 number affects less than 2% of job slots.

Good grief.. Veep Bleep Joe Biden is said to have completed his "apology tour" for insulting 3 Mid-East countries concerning their handling of Islamic jihadists. You know.. if Bleep Veep Joe has an "apology tour" to complete. it's one involving all the voters in the state's he and Obamageddon won.

---

Rumor has it that Bleep Veep Joe also insulted the Arab countries by saying he knows a cure for those wrinkly dates they serve him on visits... Botox.

Online story: "A Wisconsin reporter says he was blocked Tuesday from covering a Democratic rally in Madison headlined by first lady Michelle Obama -- a week after another reporter claimed she was told at a similar event in Milwaukee not to speak with people in the crowd. -- The first story was previously reported here (http://kirvensbreakfastclub.blogspot.com/) last week. After the US Supreme Court effectively neutered the 9th & 10th Amendments Tuesday, mainstream media should take Michelle Obama's actions as a serious threat to mainstream media's 1st and 4th Amendment rights as well.

L-E headline: "Class of 2014: Worst math SAT scores since 2000; worst writing ever" -- So much for the earlier fluff releases from the MCSD and printed by the L-E. What's worse is what the SAT plans to do to reverse the trend...

---

From the same L-E story: "The SAT is in the midst of a redesign to make the test more relevant. The new exam, to be offered in March 2016, will dispense with esoteric words, won’t deduct points for incorrect answers and will make the essay section optional." -- Good grief.. the College Boards are not content with just dumbing the overall tests down more.. now it wants to skew all comparisons to the history of the S.A.Ts.!

---

On a local issue.. soldiers from Ft Benning are being staged to Savannah Army bases to prepare for deployment to Africa.. that means they will be coming back to our community as well. Vote Republican and stop this madness in its tracks.

---

Liberalism is a religious enigma in itself. It demands separation of church and state then demands the state persecute churches.

LIV's L-E "soundoff": "The housing industry is being strangled because the middle class is being strangled by the wealthy. Who is going to win this?" -- When did "class" become determined by wealth? Some of the most "classless" people have great wealth, and some of the poorest people have 'real class'.

---

You know, if wealth distribution were carried out completely today, libs would still be confused about what "class" is, and in what class they would be if everybody was equally poor.

---

L-E headline: "ANALYSIS: AIRSTRIKES LED BY U.S. PRODUCING FEW GAINS" -- DOH! You know... there was no need to throw this into the hands of analysts when the situation could be duplicated in 5 minutes and actually results established with 1 minute. Grad a pail of water.. stir it vigorously for 3 or 4 minutes. Stop stirring.. within a minute of so, the water will be back at rest.

L-E story: "National Urban League President and CEO Marc H. Morial will come to Columbus today as keynote speaker for the local chapter’s 18th Annual Equal Opportunity Day Awards Dinner. * Morial’s trip to town comes 10 months after the organization hired a new president and CEO to rebuild the local Urban League, which had been stymied by political division. * On Tuesday, Brooke Burgess, the new CEO, said the organization has made progress the past few months and Morial’s visit will help the process. * Burgess said Morial will arrive this afternoon from Atlanta, where he will be attending an Urban League Leadership Conference the rest of the week. While in Columbus, he will meet with officials at the United Way of the Chattahoochee at 4:30 p.m. and then hold a press conference at 5:30 p.m. * Burgess said it has been challenging raising money this year, and she hopes Mo-rial’s visit will help restore United Way funding, which stopped in 2009." -- Excuse me, but why was the Urban League funded by United Way before 2009? Since when has public funding ever cured an organization's ills?

L-E story: " A group of more than 100 people gathered in Columbus Council’s chambers Tuesday to hear representatives of the Knight Foundation explain the finer points of the foundation’s Knight Cities Challenge and offer advice on how to submit a winning application." -- "advice on how to submit a winning application"? Hmmm.. doesn't this just stop "out-of-the-box" creativeness dead in its track? I can see where guidelines for filling an application would be helpful, but controlling the process seems counter productive to finding new solutions to old problems.
