That's my point Puffin.  Spend 680 billion dollars in a year and say that it's for "defense" and nobody questions it.  Spend 100 billion dollars per year for health care (1 trillion divided by 10) and all of a sudden people become deficit hawks.  Seems a little hypocritical.

A GREAT day here in Virginia for we Conservatives and all in our Commonwealth.  Also it is nice that for a change, everyone I voted for, WON!   :)   The DemocRATS should take notice of the possible backlash they are causing with their Socialistic-Marxist-antiGod-antitraditional marriage-etc., agenda.

I do agree with some elation... Virginia and Joisey... had to come to this..I even watched the NY 23 and saw just how CLOSE the Conservitive came to a W... not bad... time to hone the skills. Then we see the likes of Bloomberg..... even with his $100,000,000 to fund his campaign.... hmmmm a lot of money to spend to have your opponent so close in the final tally. Hope all that money was worth it. I wonder what other things $100,000,000.00 could buy? ? ? ?
 
Now locally.... here in my home of Sharon/Mercer County. We now have an Independent on City Council...Good stuff. And now to the Treasurer's race. I don't listen to WPIC from 8 AM- 10AM because I was requested not to call in anymore. I had a transgression and immediately apologized so.... not a part of it anymore and the more I ask around... there are others who seem to have been dropped from the WPIC Airwaves. We are now down to 10 hours of local talk out of 168 hours a week of broadcast time... sans local games the rest is syndicated.... Seems there weren't enough people available at WPIC to do the Election results tuesday night.... maybe I can see that if there are what I heard to be 4 employees of the station. So I digress.... I caught a news burp from WPIC and heard Mrs. Roberts Biros quip on why Mrs Richardson won. Hmmmm one was she had people working on her campaighn and wow..she even had the backing of her..OMG... Party. What did Mrs. Biros think politics was? ? ? ? an icecream social? It may have been a help when the qualification were published that she not have left the EDUCATION question blank. I see even the Cat Box Rag of a paper in our valley listed her and a "Blogger". To me all I was able to deduce out of knowing about her for a year or so.... she uses the computer a lot... Hmmmm IT could that mean she sells stuff on E-Bay?? Web designer? My son builds web pages and he still has a full time job. Even I have put a few together for my own uses...not rocket science and... what does that have to do with an ability to handle MILLIONS of dollars. So, she goes on WPIC and makes excuses why she didn't win? Where is the Cheese with that? I live in a precinct that is about 10 to 1 DEM to GOP. Mrs. Richardson, though she lost my precinct... lost it by about 33%.... Hmmmm gotta make you think.... Party Backing? ? ? ?
 
Rule one.... if you win... do the best job you can.... if you lose.... be gacious enough to congratulate your opponent and not make excuses for your loss on the open airwaves. It makes you look bad. Now... let me get back to my E-Bay account...I think I just sold some bronzed Dog Scat for $45 ... My lucky day and my manufacturer is hard at work in the yard *S* and I pay him in Kibble. A win-win ...dontcha think? ? ? ;)

Lifetime, I have to agree with you that WPIC is an abysmal joke these days.  I too no longer listen to the Joe Biro Daily Sewer Bill Bitch-fest (seriously, can the guy talk about ANYTHING else?).  Basically I left with Ron Errett, and I don't regret it.

LOL, that's hilarious for some reason!
 
 So in other words you were BANNED?
 Maybe if you disguised your voice you could keep calling in.

Your right there. The ammount of money in these programs is staggering.

I was putting it nicely but yes.... banned... but in hindsight.... not a bad deal. They are falling apart at the seams as it is and I have heard it "ain't" getting better.... but on this matter..you would have also read " I had a transgression and immediately apologized ( I said the phrase
" Money talks and Bull.... walks" without the dots.... Oh MY!!! It slipped and I was told to "stay home"...) so.... not a part of it anymore " and that should have given you all the info you really needed. What was interesting was that I was almost a regular and when Errett left, was even asked to possibly consider getting onboard. I like Ron and even if I could have, would not have. Besides.... I don't own a restaurant.
 
Well this is WPIC's burden to deal with. I have no horse in that race other than we may be close to losing yet another local voice media.  Many have quit listening when Errett left and many even went to WKBN. I personally think their parent company could care less.
 
Now you know the rest of the story  ;) . Happy now??
 Oh..and my voice is very hard to disguise. I go out in public and even up until a few days ago, people have approached me and asked if I am THAT guy who calls on WPIC. They recognize my voice but don't really know me. I also haven't gotten that hard up to have to disguise my voice to get my point out. I will take responsibility for what I say... no need to hide... that isn't me.

The more I see and hear from our current Commander in Chief - the less confidence I have in him. This is truly right up there with: "Now watch me hit this drive."

http://www.nbcchicago.com/news/politics/A-Disconnected-President.html

From his power centralizing agenda to his prolific golf game, to police acting stupidly to this . . . the more I see . . .

Well, I really think that a choice between two hand-picked Money Party morons is not a choice . . . .

Ms. Dahlkemper didn't agree with me . . . her prerogative.

On to the Senate . . . where one who is opposed to this ifasco is not likely to get any satifaction from Casey or Specter . . . .

Seems at least Altmire got this right...... This bill passed by 3 votes ...the game is that once this bill passed the needed numbers...the weak DEMS ...most in their first term were told they could vote against it in order to placate those in their districts who were against this bill and enhance their ability to be re-elected. This is an old "Chess Play" that both parties use to ensure a party seat chance. What this shows me, this was more about the political longevity of the legislators over the actual bill.
 
Now we take this farce to the Senate.... a harder attempt.... They will need 60 votes to shut down possible filibuster and from what is shown.... is an uphill battle.
 
This is all in MY HONEST OPINION. I am by far, no expert, and never claimed to be.

thats why politicians are just slightly behind child molesters in terms of who is most reviled.

So, they vote against the legislation, trumpet it loudly to their constituents, then slyly insert an earmark into the legislation they voted against, knowing it will pass.

I sincerely thank you BH for that link. I repeatedly became choked up reading both the blog as well as many of the comments. I dearly hope that America can open its collective eyes in time to save itself from the present path. I fear what is being shoved down our throats now will do irreparable damage if they succeed.
