HuffPost headline: "Putin likes to keep his private life a total secret" --
Well, well, well... the HuffPost never has thought, uh, felt Judas 00-Barnum has
needed to open up his private life of school, college, travel, or religion so
why is the HuffPost concerned about Putin?

Well, I'd say easily that the Billionaire-wannabees' number was reduced by
75% or more last night... Cal Poly, a team with a pre-tournament record of 13-19
favored Texas Southern in a "feed game" to be the 16th seed in Mid-West bracket
of the NCAA. If the NCAA has any sense, these 'feed games" will be eliminated
for future seasons by the end of this week.

Online story: "(Condoleezza) Rice: I firmly believe that history has a long
arc and democracy takes time. If you look back at the history of the United
States, we've been through many times of trial and turmoil. We fought a Civil
War, we've had challenges with civil rights and equality, we've gone through the
Great Depression. Democracy is not easy and it's certainly chaotic at points,
but it's the only form of government where people have the right to consent to
be governed and elect their leaders." -- "it's the only form of government where
people have the right to consent to be governed and elect leaders"?
Arrggghhhh!!!!! It's over! We've just about lost! The United States is NOT a
democracy! Our form of government is a LIMITED REPUBLIC!

HuffPost headline: "Obama Rules Out Military Involvement In Ukraine" --
Br'er Putin... he don't say nuttin'. He just laff all de way to the briar
patch.

The "Fed" cannot use a fixed percentage number of unemployment as a guide
to make changes in its monetary control formula. The numbers spewed out by Judas
00-Barnum's spinmeisters are so askew from uniformity or reality that the market
has no, actually, shouldn't have confidence in them.

Online headline/story: "Detroit spends more to issue parking fines than it
collects * Restructuring consultants have recommended that Detroit increase its
parking fines and crack down harder on people who don't pay to boost revenue for
the bankrupt city, which currently pays $32 to issue and process a $30 parking
violation. * The revenue-generating proposal would change the current parking
fines of $20, $30 and $100 per ticket to a two-tiered structure of $45 and $150,
The Detroit News reported." -- This is what happens when Democrats hire more
Democrats to solve problems... never is the problem too much expense, but just
too little revenue to cover wasteful spending. Instead of looking for ways to
cut costs, Democrats look for ways to raise more revenues, and in this case,
raising parking tickets will basically discourage drivers from parking in
metered shopping areas. Of course, retailers suffer losses from fewer customers
and sales taxes and parking fines collected go down as well. Brilliance in
business is not the forte of Democrats.

CNN headline/story: "Putin's breathtaking lies about Russia * Vladimir
Putin's gala address before Russian parliamentarians and officials Tuesday
surprised no one when he announced Russia's annexation of Crimea. The
interesting part was his distorted view of Russian history, and his proclamation
that a bizarre kind of simultaneously aggrieved and aggressive hyper-nationalism
is now Russia's official ideology. * In discussing Ukraine, however, Putin
seemed to go out of his way to suggest he had no aggressive intentions and was
not planning to divide the rest of the country." -- Hmmm, if you replace Putin's
name with Judas 00-Barnum's, and "Russia" with "the USA", and you would have a
typical Judas 00-Barnum speech, and CNN would yawn.

CNN headline: "Lessons from a Chicago ex-gangster" Ooops, my bad.. thought

WRBL3 High Speed Rail Story Update: "Mayor Obamalinson's claim of a 60
minute ride to the Atlanta airport now includes a stop in Newnan for passenger
pick up. Not only does a planned stop shoot holes in her "60 minute" claim, it
also pretty much reveals that there will not be enough Columbus passengers going
to-fro Atlanta to justify a high speed rail to be built here.. Newnan will
probably have more passenger interest than Columbus to begin with as it's a
"bedroom community" of Atlanta. So, if most passengers on the return trips get
off in Newnan, that would mean ongoing passengers loads to Columbus would me
minimal.. sorta like the usual number of people riding on our local buses.

WTVM9 story: " Federal officials must help Kansas and Arizona enforce laws
requiring new voters to document their U.S. citizenship, a federal judge ruled
Wednesday, in a decision that could encourage other Republican-led states to
consider similar policies. * U.S. District Judge Eric Melgren in Wichita, Kan.,
ordered the U.S. Election Assistance Commission to immediately modify a national
voter registration form to add special instructions for Arizona and Kansas
residents about their states' proof-of-citizenship requirements" -- Wow! A
little sanity has returned! Several questions need to be asked, though: 1 - Why
doesn't the national voter registration already require proof of citizenship for
all voters? 2 - Do you think Judas 00-Barnum will ever put Judge Melgren on a
short list of possible promotions? and 3 - When will Judge Melgren's IRS audit
begin?

L-E story: "The preferred term for a mutually beneficial agreement between
government and private enterprises is "partnership." When it's done right, as
has often been the case in this community, it's an accurate definition. * When
it's not, it's more appropriately described with a more traditional political
term, such as "sweetheart deal," to use one of the gentler (and printable) ones"
-- Talk about "sweetheart deals" that justify a few more "other" descriptive
words... Whiterwater Express got one at Columbus taxpayers' expense. The guy
gets a now exclusive deal to do business that required him not to sink a single
dollar into a $25 MILLION dollar PLUS venue. On top of that.. he doesn't even
collect sales taxes for the City or State.

Bruce Pearl? Surely Auburn could could find someone with a better ethics
pedigree to bring to its basketball program. In fact, if Auburn wanted to lower

Jehmu Geene..a direct FOX spinmeister/contributer for OObamaCRAP, really
opened the door for the critics. She spouted off the 5,000,000 "sign up" number
which is the one all Democrats are now using for "the talking points", but went
a step further stating that 75% of those have actually made a payment. Hmmmm, it
sounds more like only 3,750,000 have signed up, which is even less than Bleep
Veep Biden's suggestion.
---
Info on Jehmu Greene: "From 2009-2010, Greene was president of Women's
Media Center, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit media advocacy organization founded in 2005
by writers/activists Jane Fonda, Robin Morgan, and Gloria Steinem." Good
grief... doesn't Fox even bother to look for leftists that there's a possible
way to offer balance?

Online story: "There was a buzz about the exhibition match between Boston
Red Sox and New York Yankees – but it had nothing to do with the baseball stars
on the pitch. * Instead, it was a swarm of bees which took centre stage as they
delayed the game for seven minutes while groundskeepers armed with pesticides
intervened. * It was Boston left fielder Mike Carp who pointed the bees out to
umpires, who stopped the game at the Steinbrenner Field in Tampa." -- I cannot
wait to see how Judas 00-Barnum's EPA friends will react if he throws out the
first pitch at a baseball game next month.... heh heh heh.

Online story: "A Texas school board proposed Wednesday to not renew the
contract of a principal who allegedly banned students from speaking Spanish on a
middle school campus, MyFoxHouston.com reported. * Amy Lacey, the middle school
principal in Hempstead, has been on paid administrative leave since late last
year. She allegedly announced over the school's intercom that Spanish would not
be tolerated on campus. Hempstead is a small town about an hour northwest of
Houston. * "Students were shamed until they did not want to come to school
anymore," Salina Moreno, an attorney with the Latin Legal Voice, told
MyFoxHouston.com. Some Latino organizations are calling on the FBI to
investigate possible civil rights violations." -- Good grief! This was possibly
the best advice these kids will ever receive, but if a FBI investigation is
called for, it is to investigate why so many students do not know English.

We cannot continue letting the unionized Postal Service to continue as it
is..piling up billions in annual debt while the integrity of first class mail
delivery continues to disintegrate. We've recently been busy with pre-wedding
events and the number of undelivered or post-event delivery of invitations is
astonishing. These are fully paid first class missives and mailed 2-4 weeks
ahead, yet intended recipients are not getting them on time or not at all.

You know, when Judas 00-Barnum increased the minimum wage for all workers
of contractors doing business with the government, he basically raised everyone
else's taxes to fund that. Well, those that are actually paying taxes.

That robbery case from yesterday's BC concerning "friends"robbing another
"friend" from similar life circumstances really demonstrates the break down in
cultures that are causing so many crises at the very fiber of the diversity web.
In the past, you could almost sympathize certain crimes such as the homeless mom
wanting to feed her children, or the idiot flashing gold jewelry and a wad of
cash in a desperate neighborhood. You know, sort like the feeling we gave Robin
Hood, as he"stole from the rich, and gave to the poor". That euphoric feeling
does not exist for this crime.. it was a case of a Robbing Hoodlum stealing from
the poor for their own benefit.

Online headline/story: "Chick-fil-A CEO says opposing same-sex marriage a
business mistake *
Two years after making headlines by publicly opposing gay marriage, Dan Cathy, CEO of Chick-fil-A, admits it was a mistake for he and his company to take a position on the issue." -- Taking a stance was not a mistake.. letting it become a political issue and kowtowing to liberal factions is. To think I went out of my way Aug 1, 2012 to show my support. This truly disappoints me.

You know, we have about 500 buses in the MCSD inventory.. they cost between
$85,000-$105,000 each. In other words, between $42,500,000 and $52,500,000 has
been spent on purchase such buses. This does not include operational costs such
as fuel, drivers, mechanics, tires and other incidentals during the life span of
the buses, nor is there a depreciation fund for replacing them as needed. This
money could stay in taxpayers' pockets or even be better spent in the
classrooms.

A soldier endangered his own life in jumping into the cold Chattahoochee
River waters to save two kids.. ages 9 and 15, who found themselves struggling
in the currents. The 9 year old had fallen in, and his 15 year old brother went
in after him. Several questions come to mind immediately: Has the City exposed
itself to a "attractive nuisance" legal case as it's too easily accessed by
young and intrigued boys & girls, and 2: Where were the boys' parent(s)? and
3 - Since it is required by law to wear a PFD (Personal Flotation Device) does
the City that passed the law have a legal obligation to monitor the area?

Embarrassingly low info voter's L-E "soundoff": " The coal miner who loaded
16 tons and the cotton picker who picked a bale a day worked harder than any
rich person today." -- Another liberal's pity party.. most wealthy people became
that way by recognizing a human need and finding a better, less expensive way to
solve the problem. They discovered it as a way of helping themselves, and the
world beat a path to their doors. It's the constant complainer that misses the
opportunities to improve themselves.
