We're not, we're the world's substitute gym teacher. If we were the mom, we could send the world to bed without dessert and they might actually listen once in a while.

Had I been 'naive' enough to get into a jam like that and the media came to her to get a story she would have said, "Quien lo mando?"

Translation?

"Who sent him (to the protest)?"

She would have them been bleeped because she would have had some choice words about me and my stupidity.

The mom of this kid was just as stupid as he is.

She made a comment about telling her kids something like, 'get out there and live life...'

------------------------------

Seems like the kid got punched and roughed up while he was in the Egyptian clink.


I hope he remembers his civil rights and asks for a Miranda the next time he gets picked up in a foreign country.

I have a new respect for Ron Paul and Jon Huntsman for turning down
the invitation to attend the Donald's debate forum.

The Prez is going to have a press announcement about his role in getting rid of Kim Sung Il.

Thank goodness for American ingenuity....

Liz....


Your party of choice is lucky to have you on their side. Yes, Rick Perry is a moron. Sorry, he ain't the guy who will destroy "President" Obama. Pick on the low hanging fruit, it rather suits you. LOL

Seriously... You want anyone with a brain cell to take you seriously and THIS is what you share? LOL

P.S. I can't wait for 2012. I can't wait to see how our Dear Leader runs his campaign. He has ZERO to run on. Lets hear how its all "the other guys" fault.

Geography has never been their best subject!! (Nor history...but there is always math!)

But Canada is like a foreign country today. You need a passport to enter into it. It use to be your driver license was enough.

As far as history goes do you all believe everything they taught you in school? I don't!

Just like you should not believe what comes out of the mouth of ANY politician. They all make promises they can't keep. It would be better if they promised nothing. The most important question I would have is can you balance your own check book?

The world is changing so fast my world map from National Geographic 2011 is already outdated. I have never heard of some of the countries that are now on the map.

Two to three times a day we keep getting poll calls. We will be glad when everyone packs up & moves on to the next state.

It is true when the president was here his speech consisted of putting the blame on everyone else. He has had plenty of time to take a hold of the reins.

Romney on Trump Endorsement: This is Awesome


Josh Marshall-February 2, 2012, 4:05 PM1068
Mitt Romney ecstatic over Trump endorsement: “There are some things that you just can’t imagine happening in your life — this is one of them. Being in Donald Trump’s magnificent hotel and having his endorsement is a delight.”


Does this mean Mitt gets a Tiara & Sash. LOL

No need for anybody to do anything. His gourmet diet did him in.

His diabetes and drinking, as well as general disregard for his own health, did him in. Actions have consequences, even for a "beloved leader."

What is a right to work (or right-to-work?) state? That phrase has been in the news around here lately because the Indiana state government is addressing either making or not making Indiana a right to work state. I don't really get it although I know it has something to do with labor unions. Up in Wisconsin people are signing petitions to have their governor recalled. They just had big legislation up there with labor unions.

Should you belong to a labor union if you have a government job? When I was a temp nurse in the Cook County health care system, the RNs were unionized under the Illinois Nurses Association. They had strict rules for nurse to patient ratios, overtime, new hire orientation, assignments, breaks, uniforms, holidays - you name it, they had a rule for it. Those nurses made big bucks and they worked a lot of overtime. And every nurse had been there for a long time.

When I worked for the auto mechanics' union welfare fund, you didn't have to join the union - but the union was providing benefits to the fund office employees, so if I wanted health and dental coverage, I had to sign up and pay dues, which in turn paid for the benefits. The cool part of that job was that they had a yearly car show because a lot of the members were car enthusiasts. They also had a motorcycle ride for cancer-- which started at one of the dealerships and ended at a huge forest preserve, where there was a picnic, games for kids, volleyball and fun. You could just come to the picnic if you weren't a motorcyclist, and there was a car pool from the office.

Right -to-work state is a state in which union membership cannot be required as a condition of employment.

There are always three sides to every story.

To the unions - this means employees can receive the wages and benefits negotiated by the union without paying union dues. They must be represented (although perhaps not vigorously ) by the union in any dispute with management without paying union dues.

For employees - they do not have to pay union dues if they do not want to or do not believe in unions.

To the Company - it is a very useful wedge between employees.

It can make for stressful relations - employees who pay union dues vs. those who do not.

Disclaimer - much of my career has been fighting against unions. I do not take a position on this issue. Just the facts.
