Soapbox Moment: $22 Trillion... $22,000,000,000,000.00... that's how much
has been spent of government entitlement/help programs in the last 50 years..
The Great Society.. the War on Poverty.. don't tell me it's hard working
taxpayers who are at fault for inner city blight.. and 15 of those 22 Trillion
dollars have been spent since 1995. $22,000,000,000,000.00 is
$4,000,000,000,000.00 more than our current National Debt.. and more twice what
America has spent on all the wars we been in. Democrats say it's our defense
budget that needs trimming, but we know better now.. The Heritage Foundation put
these figures together. You know, if all the money spent on government
entitlement/help programs had not been spent.. had not been wasted, American
would be $4,000,000,000,000.00 in the black.. that's an entire budget
expenditure of Obamageddon which means we could actually have a tax free year
and be even going into 2016. Just think of how much of an economic boom it would
be.. how many jobs could be created if the American taxpayer had the freedom to
spend this $4,000,000,000,000.00 versus Congress or the
president.

Will someone stick a sock in Alan Colmes' mouth! He's on TV blaming Republicans in Congress for not addressing inner city problems. Huh? Since when have inner city voters voted for Republicans to represent them? Why didn't the super majority Democratic Congesses under Johnson, Carter, Clinton, and Obamageddon address and solve problems rather than throw good money into worthless, vote buying entitlement programs?

Good grief...now Hillewinsky is trying to hide behind some Canadian law that her sycophants are saying prohibits disclosing names of people who give $250,000.00 to our Secretary of State.

So there will a national rally for Freddy Gr(_* _)y? On what subject...resolving misplaced anger expression, or martyring another street thug? One minute of study of his rap sheet gives a good idea why he ran from the police.

Online story: "On Sunday, a New Black Panther Party leader using the name General Taco said members of the New Black Panther Party will hunt down and kill white people, The Blaze reported Wednesday. Saying that the future of the organization is “absolute total destruction” of what he called “white supremacy” and capitalism on the planet, General Taco said the group would hunt their “pink a**es down.” * Taco, whose name stands for “taking all capitalists out,” wasn’t finished. “Once [white people] die, we should dig ‘em up, and kill ‘em again, bury ‘em, dig ‘em up, and kill ‘em again, and again, and again!” he exclaimed, getting more agitated as he spoke. He justified his remarks by claiming white people have a “history” of pushing “crack, AIDS and unemployment” on black people in order to “exterminate” them. Taco’s call for racial violence is nothing new for the group. * On Sunday, the St. Petersburg/Tampa, Florida, chapter of the New Black Panther Party issued a tweet calling for the murder of white people. * “Kill these racist h**keys, these cr***ers, these pigs, these pink people, It has been long overdue!” the organization said on Twitter. * In a 32-page newsletter released in May, NBPP leader Malik Zulu Shabazz suggested that violence may be the most effective way to advance their agenda." -- You know.. where the hell are Obamageddon and the DOJ! Talk about hate crimes in the works.. Guess we should make General Taco .. use his his full name.. Taco Bell.. the Pit Chihuahua.. "Taking All Capitalist Out.. By Eliminating Learned Leaders"

Online headline: "Defense lawyers call on Tsarnaev's 3rd-grade teacher * In an attempt to shed light on what Dzhokhar was like as a child, his attorneys called to the stand Catheryn Charner-Laird. * 'Always wanted to do the right thing'" --Good grief.. this is about as pertinent as the jury being told that the Menendez Brothers in California were orphans....after they had brutally blown away their parents with shotguns!

Dueling headlines:
Online headline: "Baltimore Mayor Apologizes for Use of the Word ‘Thug’: * L-E headline: "Obama calls Baltimore rioters thugs, says entire country has work to do" -- Hmm... President Barack Obama and Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake both used the word in their respective responses to Monday evening’s violence in the city. Obama lambasted “criminals and thugs” while Rawlings-Blake said “thugs” are destroying the city they’ve worked hard to build up. ....The Baltimore Mayor just exacerbated the situation.. those thugs are what they are, and no one in power needs to give them any sympathy.. These inner city eruptions deny everyone due process.. even as we speak, stories are coming out that Gr(_*_)y possibly engaged in a self-inflicted action of throwing himself into the walls of the van he was placed in following detainment/arrest. It's a ploy often used by people with long rap sheets to make it look like a police-inflicted injury to get a plea bargain deal out of it.

Online story: "Mayor Kasim Reed is speaking out after violent protests in Baltimore, and the tough decisions a mayor has to make in those situations. * Reed said he is a longtime friend of Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake. He called her a capable, competent and passionate mayor who cares deeply about her city.
* Mayor Reed also said he feels Atlanta is not the kind of city where you'd see that type of violence." -- Good grief.. is this a bit of "selective memory" or was Reed a victim of public education that eliminated the early 90s riots in Atlanta?

L-E headline: "Once-a-week garbage pickup issue arises again" -- You know..
I mentioned Monday that all my neighbors had two or more garbage cans/bags of
garbage plus boxes and over-sized, over-flowing recycle cans on the street.
Guess what, except for the recycle cans. all my neighbors have garbage back on
the street 3 days later. Saving $8.00 annually is not a good trade off. We need
a balanced budget law to keep Mayor TomLYINGson from spending money on whims and
revenue-negative pet projects.

L-E story: " Columbus crime statistics for the first three months of this
year as compared to the first quarter of 2014 show decreases only in homicide,
burglary and auto theft, according to numbers released Wednesday. * As the
Ledger-Enquirer reported April 11, the city had only two homicides from January
through March — the year’s third slaying occurred Tuesday — as compared to five
for the first quarter of last year. * “I’m most pleased to see the dramatic
reduction in homicides so far this year,” Mayor Teresa Tomlinson, the city’s
public safety director, said Wednesday. “The tragic murder we had yesterday was
the first in 110 days. Among our multi-faceted efforts, we have partnered with
many community organizations to combat violence, particularly domestic violence,
which claimed 10 lives last year. We appear to have made some headway there." --
"I’m most pleased to see the dramatic reduction in homicides so far this year"?
Please Mayor TomLYINGson, while every life is valuable, and most every killing
is tragic, a drop of 1 is not "dramatic". Another has happened since the quarter
ended, and summer is just around the corner.

L-E story: "There are a variety of ways to aid the homeless in Columbus.
Drinking wine and listening to jazz is one of them. * The 2nd annual Wine
Tasting Mingle at The Loft on May 15 will benefit the Homeless Resource Network.
The event is 6-8 p.m. and the cost is $40. * There will be silent auction for
prizes to bid upon. * Tickets may be purchased at HomelessResourceNetwork.org."
-- Good grief.. a wine tasting fundraiser for one of the main reasons we have
"homeless"... Hey. why not take a page out of the "Snakes" playbook.. bring in
"homeless" as waiters and sommeliers so everyone can have "mingle".

L-E story: " Callaway Gardens said Wednesday it has hired someone with a
background in both resorts and theme parks — including Dollywood and Silver
Dollar City — as its new president and chief executive officer. He succeeds
Edward Callaway. * William “Bill” Doyle III starts work on Monday and is being
given the mission of keeping the 63-year-old, 6,000-acre nature preserve and
resort in Pine Mountain, Ga., just north of Columbus, on the path to recovery
after several troubling years of declining attendance and rising debt." --
"just north of Columbus"? Hmmm... sorta getting back to its roots...I
remember when Callaway's slogan was "30 Minutes North of Columbus".. then the
Steeplechase caused their britches to get too tight so the slogan changed to "A
Hour South of Atlanta".. welcome back, Callaway.. I hope.

Jonathan Gruber stupid LIV's L-E "soundoff": "With all of these jobs these
rich folks are creating, it’s hard for me to figure out which one I want." --
Hmmm... this one should ask. "Do I want the government to tax job creators and
give me a portion of those taxes back as entitlements?" or "Do I want job
creators to have lower taxes so they can hire me to a job that provides better
than government entitlement "programs?".
---
Double extra stupid Jonathan Gruber LIV's L-E "soundoff": "Council is
finally showing they will not be held hostage by the elected officials who
continue to overspend their budgets without regard to other city services.
Bravo." -- Huh? When did Council shove Mayor TomLYINGson's buget proposal back
ih her face and tell her to present a balanced one based on revenue
expectations? She's already raided our reserve balance to the point even banking
supporters cannot help her.

L-E headline: "Baltimore lurches toward normalcy" -- Good grief.. if
