how did you double post ? just commented , or maybe you're getting pushed by a divine intervention ?

Come on people . This is a massive effort to suppress the vote and thwart the opposition using all the tools at the administration's disposal.

Why is everybody tiptoeing around this . Natl Review is doing a great job,  

this article is a wonderful hint. But why is the burden of proof on us ?

Let's just say what we feel and let the chips fall where they may.

It's not as if we're going to convert the MSM in the next year . Those people have to be individually hurt,like Atkinson at CBS or others . 

Frankly, when I see Gene Robinson or Dana Milbank get mad, or Bob Schieffer wisecrack, I don't believe them. Credibility takes a long time to build after years of snarling ,snarky dishonesty.

We gotta get the word out, we think it's a big conspiracy. We're not racist. Hell, we're scared and madder than hell. Howard Beale time.

How many of the California lefties are scratching their heads now ?

Gosh, the good guys aren't the liberals after all ?

Well golly !! Surprise surprise surprise. Gomer is your friend, it ain't Obama and his henchmen like Levin.

What an incredible wakeup call for the Silicon Valley set. Sort of like figuring out that Al Gore is a fake. After all, Kleiner Perkins piled in on enviro stuff like Fisker and lost their ass, Gore made his pile, bailed and then sold out his tv deal to the press wing of Al Qaeda !

How many wakeup calls will these nimrods require ?

Maybe he's becoming a reporter.

Amy,

I  see a "re-gifting" opportunity , so  send the present .

Skip the wedding, go to reception and see if the food is good and maybe they have drinks . In other words, take the guy route. 

That's how we roll up north in Buchanan County.

I plead the fifth, fat fingers and slow uploads. My post is below.

My post is below, we are changing the talking points and the dates.

How about :

"Within the framework of the new regulations allowing union leadership to participate in management decisions, have your unionized colleagues, such as Colleen Kelley, assisted you in the targeting of Tea Party, anti-abortion groups, and other conservative factions ?"

That would be a doble.

i regret my earlier post's inaccuracy but wish it were so

How do you unwind that one ? There are two ways I know of. A vote of the members or a bankruptcy to bust it. 

Other than an amendment to the constitution ( that would be sweet !), I can't imagine getting rid of this problem .

Joan, 

After breakfast, you thought about waking the Instugator and the little gators ? 
realizing that you do live in gator country, I have to ask an indelicate question . are you talking about the kids or do you think that those cajun types really keep gators as pets ? in that case, i recommend a stronger naugahyde covering for pretty much everything. that and a docjay .45 acp to create some new wallets for the haters here.

 so haters , as a late arrival to the longest thread in domestic history, I am wondering whether or not there is anyone here who would consider sponsoring me in the intiation phase of what is obviously a multi-level marketing scam by 10 cents, his niece Penny, and maybe Clipper.

second question, how much will it cost (a) in self-esteem and (b) joan continuing to be my friend and (3) miata/abercrombie discounts

There haven't been any reports of fatalities, and that might presage a miracle.  An F4 tornado just went through Moore, lingering for up to 45 minutes. 

That's like having a nuclear bomb food processor   sit on top of your community for an eternity. 

Remember Xenia, Edmond,Okla. ,Galveston. These people had a 16 minute warning that hell was headed their way. Whoever invented the warning deserves our praise, whoever was in the way deserves our prayers.

Sounds like Reagan was the miracle . That we were lucky enough to have him as president is miraculous, or the press has so relentlessly slammed our country and our leaders for so long that most of them look bad.

Other than Reagan, what do the Ricochetti think about who was the last great American president ?

Was it Truman ? Harding ? Pierce ?

Thanks for the post, though long, it was illuminating.

Are you setting up a strawman for you argument or finding the problem in your own argument as in the above ?

A monopoly paid for taxpayers, which will inevitably unionize and make itself permanent with no accountability, is somehow preferable ?

Sandy Springs gave their first contract to a big company and then broke things up in the next contract period. They did retain certain services due to Georgia Constitution, so police and fire have assured their futures at a very base level.  

Can you imagine Blackwater doing the local policing ? That would be cool. And the PC stuff would be covered by their insurance company rather than the taxpayer and the resulting tiptoe around everything that mutes us all.

He doesn't have the resume for POTUS, alarmingly thin in accomplishment. Then, how does this community organizer, infrequent politician, and invisible student get to the apogee of power ? He is thrust there by forces unseen . How do we divine these forces ? Or is the better question : dare we divine this ?

So California has it's Sacramento, New York it's Albany and NYC, and Illinois runs Springfield for fun and the country for a living ?

Personalities aren't the question here, civic pathologies are.

I gave True the Vote money, I'm being audited .

It's either that or joining Ricochet in 2010 !!
