Hope At Last (Maybe)

I am thinking fresh for 2010. I mean fresh as in who would you want to raise your children fresh. Who would you want to marry fresh. Who do we want making Congressional decisions fresh.

as opposed to who do you want nothing to do with stale:

As in who would you not let in the house stale:

Who you would not be seen with:

Who you would not admit knowing:

Well, you get the point:

Another iTunes Only Podcast Mistake

Why do these people think everyone in the world uses iTunes? I will never fall prey to evil Apple's web of revenue. If there is some way to easily download these iTunes type podcasts, I do not know it.

Sometimes I get so aggravated I severe all contact with these sites, call me cranky. I am deleting by bookmark and rss feed tracker now. If the world comes to an end I will just have to find out another way. Hey, I warned them.

Show Me Da Monies

OK Elinore, what do you have to say about this?

1. I did not say it.
2. I was taken out of context.
3. Rush Limbaugh lied about it.
4. All of the above.

Tea Parties Bullish for Economy -- 'Don't Believe the Mainstream Media'

The Lawyers' Party

American Thinker: The Lawyers' Party: "The Lawyers' Party
By Bruce Walker
The Democratic Party has become the Lawyers' Party. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are lawyers. Bill Clinton and Michelle Obama are lawyers. John Edwards, the other former Democrat candidate for president, is a lawyer and so is his wife Elizabeth. Every Democrat nominee since 1984 went to law school (although Gore did not graduate.) Every Democrat vice presidential nominee since 1976, except for Lloyd Bentsen, went to law school. Look at the Democrat Party in Congress: the Majority Leader in each house is a lawyer.

The Republican Party is different. President Bush and Vice President Cheney were not lawyers, but businessmen. The leaders of the Republican Revolution were not lawyers. Newt Gingrich was a history professor; Tom Delay was an exterminator; and Dick Armey was an economist. House Minority Leader Boehner was a plastic manufacturer, not a lawyer. The former Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist is a heart surgeon.

Who was the last Republican president who was a lawyer? Gerald Ford, who left office thirty-one years ago and who barely won the Republican nomination as a sitting president, running against Ronald Reagan in 1976. The Republican Party is made up of real people doing real work"

Comments: Did you hear the one about the lawyer who was the only lawyer in town and going broke until ....?

I just received an email:

Do We Learn From The Past?

Get ready for break-up of Belgium: top minister | Radio Netherlands Worldwide

Get ready for break-up of Belgium: top minister | Radio Netherlands Worldwide: "Leading francophone Socialist Laurette Onkelinx, considered a potential successor to party chief Elio Di Rupo, who gave up on negotiations with separatist Flemish leaders on Friday, gave her prognosis in a newspaper interview.

'Let's hope it doesn't come to that because if we split, it will be the weakest who will pay the heaviest price,' she told La Derniere Heure. 'On the other hand, we can no longer ignore that among a large part of the Flemish population, it's their wish.

'So yes, we have to get ready for the break-up of Belgium. Otherwise we're cooked."

Comments: At some point we need a boarder. If not now, when? OK we could give up California (and maybe Oregon) but after that we should put our foot down. Please elect Jerry Brown, he will fit in nicely with the new (old) reality.

Nasca Lines may be giant map of underground water sources

201008304946 | Nasca Lines may be giant map of underground water sources: "American researcher David Johnson has advanced a theory that Nasca Lines may be related to water. He thinks that the geoglyphs may be a giant map of the underground water sources traced on the land.
The Nasca Lines are located in the Peruvian desert, about 200 miles south of Lima. The assortment of perfectly-straight lines lies in an area measuring 37 miles long and 1-mile wide.

The Nasca plain is one of the driest places on Earth, getting less than one inch of rain a year. So, when Johnson started his research in 1995, he became aware of the scarcity of water in the region and the effect that this had on agricultural production and the quality of life.

While looking for sources of water, he noticed that ancient aqueducts, called puquios, seemed to be connected with some of the lines."

Obama's Economy

Let's summarize. Lower taxes during the previous administration caused our economic problems. Policies for easy real estate pushed by Democrats and opposed by Republicans are never mentioned. Why are people not buying this line of baloney? Because it is baloney.

More money flowing into the government by higher taxes (while the economy shrinks) will benefit middle America. Baloney.

Oh, and job growth lag during the last economic expansion was due to low taxes, too. It had nothing to do with outsourcing business models. Baloney. Just why do businesses outsource? If it saves money, businesses do it. Taxes have nothing to do with it.

Either this guy does not understand economics or the truth would not be advantageous to his political agenda or both. Yes, Yes, he is soooo smart, but then liberals always are (according to liberals).

Listening to this guy is a hear tearing experience.

BBC had "massive bias to left:" director general

BBC had "massive bias to left:" director general: "The director general of the BBC admitted Thursday that his organisation had been guilty of a 'massive bias to the left' but said 'a completely different generation' of journalists now works at the broadcaster.
Mark Thompson told the right-of-centre Spectator magazine that there was an institutional bias when he joined the organisation, reinforcing the findings of a 2007 internal report which concluded that greater efforts were required to avoid liberal bias.

'In the BBC I joined 30 years ago, there was, in much of current affairs, in terms of people's personal politics, which were quite vocal, a massive bias to the left,' Thompson said."

Comments: I am shocked - shocked I tell you. Did you have any idea the BBC has a history of left leaning political agendas?

Stephen Hawking: God was not needed to create the Universe - Telegraph

Stephen Hawking: God was not needed to create the Universe - Telegraph: "In June this year Prof Hawking told a Channel 4 series that he didn't believe that a 'personal' God existed. He told Genius of Britain: 'The question is: is the way the universe began chosen by God for reasons we can't understand, or was it determined by a law of science? I believe the second. If you like, you can call the laws of science 'God', but it wouldn't be a personal God that you could meet, and ask questions.'"

Comments: Prof. Hawking wants to make it perfectly clear (before he goes to meet his maker) that Prof. Hawking does not believe in a maker. I suppose God gets the message. Good luck with that Prof. Hawking. Of course the Hawk has no better idea of how the universe came into being than how to get up out of his chair. But I give him marks for boldness.
