HuffPost headline: "America is treating its low-wage workers so badly that
it's starting to get shamed by the rest of the world." -- Good grief.. like
America is the "home" of "sweat shops", and American workers are crossing the
borders to other countries to take "higher paying" low income jobs? If there's
anything America is shamed for by the rest of the most world is that the rest
of most of the world doesn't feel as secure with 3rd World dictators despots
throwing the gauntlet at the Mosqued Man and seeing he's given all his "silver
bullets" to them thinking they will like him better.

Now the Man of Steal wants to give $1,500,000,000.00 dollars to take care
of the needs if the 47,000 unaccompanied children who have over our borders from
Mexico. That's nearly $32,000 pet child. Another question needs answering as
well.. How come unattended children can cross our borders so easily.

You know.. what the rest of the industrial world laughs at the US about
fastest... and "firstest" is the high corporate income tax American companies
pay. Every penny of tax a corporation (versus people) pays out adds directly to
the finished products' cost and saps the buying strength of the net take home
pay of taxpayers. It also distances the international market's desire for
American exports.

HuffPost headline: "Obama Announces About 275 Troops Deploying To Iraq" --

Let's look at the $244,000.00 "Royal Flush" bathroom one more time before
it's voted on:
Don't know how this had escaped discussion, but how many $244K bathrooms
are built on the beaches you like to go to?
Hmmm...that brings up other questions ..like is anyone who rafts/kayaks
going to stop, walk up to the RiverWalk looking for a bathroom? Has anyone seen
$244K bathrooms on the Alabama side...or on RiverWalks in other cities?
Oh, and how many $244K bathrooms do we provide in combat arenas for our
soldiers?
On a solution aspect.. how about converting Golden Park into a public
bathroom facility? It's already there.. has multiple bathroom facilities already
in existence.. some are even air conditioned, and some industrious
entrepreneur(s) will buy business licenses to operate a conveyance service to
speedily transport people in need to such a destination.
Either that, or provide a portable, event available, cabana tent changing
station where "Depends" could be sold and changed into should needs arrive.
On the other hand, 5 Councilors will be running.. either for re-election or
the door.. in two years.

Maybe CNN should interview Hillary about why she said, "Al-Qaida is

If the Mosqued Man says he can sit down with Iran and deal with the Iraqi's

You know, when you see ads for family destination beach vacations that

Online story: "In what was part promotional stunt, part spectacle and part
curiosity attraction, Pete Rose managed the independent Atlantic League Bluefish
for one game Monday night, standing in the first base coaching box for the first
five innings when the Bluefish were at bat. Rose’s Connecticut cameo was more
notable for the buzz that was circulating: Was Rose trying to get MLB
commissioner Bud Selig’s attention one more time before Selig steps down in
January?" -- Sorry, Charlie Hustle, but America wants Blue "Tuna" Fish that
taste good. Besides, maybe if you redeem yourself in the independent Atlantic
League for a career, Bud Selig will let you be inducted in the Independent
Atlantic League "HOF".

L-E story: "Carver High School assistant principal Craig Fitts will be
recommended by superintendent David Lewis to be the new principal at Double
Churches Middle School." -- Hmmm, why is a vice principal from Carver being put
in charge of another school? Carver has been rebuilt with all the latest
resources other schools dream of, yet Carver recently had the worst results of
any school in Columbus.

In 2007, Bush43 predicted the reintroduction of violence in Iraq if the US
didn't follow through with support measures. Hmmm, do you not expect the Mosques
Man's spinmeisters to spin the video (ala Benghazi/BeenHazy) of the
Bush comments as "the cause" of the Sunni actions going on today?

When Dave Brat defeated Eric Cantor in the VA 7th District Republican
Primary, Brat posted these 6 tenets as his platform:
"That the free enterprise system is the most productive supplier of human
needs and economic justice,
"That all individuals are entitled to equal
rights, justice, and opportunities and should assume their responsibilities as
citizens in a free society,
"That fiscal responsibility and budgetary
restraints must be exercised at all levels of government,
"That the Federal
Government must preserve individual liberty by observing Constitutional
limitations,
"That peace is best preserved through a strong national
defense,
"That faith in God, as recognized by our Founding Fathers is
essential to the moral fiber of the Nation."
Only mainstream media,
liberals, educators and unions can read these and find fault. Amazingly, this
happened in the shadows of the Capitol Building. If this is a "Tea Party" thing,
then what patriotic American citizens are not in step with the Tea Party
movement?

HuffPost headline: "GM Recalls 3.2 Million More Cars For Ignition Switch
Problems" -- Hmmm, that's up to a years annual production for GM.. now just
another 10 years to go before it's safe for everybody to drive again.. You know,
it that Mosqued Man had not bailed out Government Motors, we wouldn't have to be
looking at 4 years' GM production for more future recalls?

From the "wow, I didn't see that coming when I copped my liberal's
attitude" department - Online story: "If you live in hurricane country, your
plans to flee an approaching storm could be zapped if you drive an electric
vehicle. * Without enough juice to crawl along in bumper-to-bumper traffic for
hours on end, "your car turns into a lawn ornament," says John O'Dell, senior
editor at Edmunds.com." -- And to think that Florida was almost won by
Algore....hmmm, maybe someone will invent a coal-powered, portable electric
recharger you can haul behind your battery operated vehicle....

L-E headline: "SLAMIC STATE OF IRAQ AND SYRIA * ISIS claims control of last

armed conflict.

L-E story: "As promised last week, superintendent David Lewis on Monday
night delivered a Fiscal Year 2015 budget to the Muscogee County School Board
that includes laying off fewer school-based employees than originally announced.
* Instead of the 69 layoffs that were in the preliminary budget the board
approved June 2, board members passed the $264,717,610 budget — $5.9 million, or
2.2 percent, less than the Fiscal Year 2014 original budget — that now requires
42 layoffs" -- Hmmm, the old liberal "bait and switch" trick.. promise more, but
deliver less. Sorta like when Bill Clinton campaigned on a blanket middle class
tax cut, but then cried that he just couldn't do it no matter how hard he tried.
On the other hand.. it looks like saving $5.9 Million indicates that those
42 who lost their jobs were averaging $140.000.00 plus per job

L-E story: " A Columbus man faces life in prison over allegations he
orchestrated the 2011 armed robbery of a pizza deliveryman who, returning to the
crime scene days later, happened to meet one of the robbers when the suspect

seen standing next to the guy wearing the "I'm with Stupid ->" t-shirt
ads...

L-E story: " For over 100 years, African Americans all over the country
have been celebrating Juneteenth (June 19, 1865), the date when many of the
slaves in the State of Texas learned that they had been freed, almost two and a
half years after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation by President
Abraham Lincoln" -- Hmmm, but LBJ's "Great Society" took it back away in
1965....

LIV's L-E "soundoff": " European countries won’t tolerate NRA excuses for
20,000 gun deaths a year. That’s why the NRA and GOP call them socialist." --
Actually, there are 30,000 gun related deaths in the US annually, but 2/3rds are
suicides, and if you take into consideration how many are street shootings, in
major cities and by drug deals gone bad, the number of planned and accidental
deaths by guns drops precipitously. In fact, in 2009, there were "only" 554
unintentional gun deaths. The Congressional Research Service in 2009 estimated
there were 310 million firearms in the U.S., not including weapons owned by the
military. 114 million of these were handguns, 110 million were rifles, and 86
million were shotguns. In that same year, the Census bureau stated the
population of people in the U.S. at 306 million. Overall, in the hands of law
abiding citizens, deaths caused by guns are few and far between.

LIV's L-E "soundoff": " If the Republican Party would stop its anti-Obama

DOH! And this person is allowed to vote? I do think Republican Party electees
SHOULD start working for the people who elected them.. the fact is that Student
Loan Ranger should start working for the voters who elected more Republicans
than Democrats in the last two elections.

L-E story: "NAIROBI, Kenya — The gunmen went door to door in the Kenyan
costal town, demanding to know if the men inside were Muslim and if they spoke
Somali. If the extremists did not like the answers, they opened fire, witnesses
said on Monday. * Authorities blamed al-Shabab, a Somali al-Qaidalinked group,
for the hours-long assault on Mpeketoni in which 48 people were killed. The
attack began Sunday night as residents watched World Cup matches on TV and
lasted until early Monday, with little resistance from Kenya’s security forces *
The merciless life-or-death religious assessment recalled al-Shabab’s attack on
an upscale mall in Kenya’s capital, Nairobi, last September in which at least 67
people were killed, some of them after not being able to answer questions about
Islam." -- You know.. the AP nor the L-E will accurately describe, nor really
just imply, what is happening.. this is a Christian purge.. a genocide act of
Muslims. Wonder what the story would have read like if the situation was
reversed?.. Hmm, no, I already know..you do, too.

Chuck Williams at the L-E commemorating his 25th year here in Columbus.. He

L-E story: " ATLANTA— Chelsea Clinton, who has played an increasingly
prominent role in her family’s foundation, used a speech Monday to call for more
community service opportunities for a younger generation and said she supports
efforts that would allow more college graduates to reduce their student loan
debt through volunteering." -- First, why do daughters of Democrat politicians
such as Clinton and Nunn use their father's names to get ahead.. aren't they
"woman enough" to shine on their own accomplishments.. but her politicking about
the college grads to "reduce their student loan debt by volunteering"? Good
grief.. what a typical liberal thought process. And what do the those
"volunteers do after they've "volunteered off" their student loan debt... then
start looking for a paying job?
