This crowd is pretty smart.

Yeah, the poor little congress has a lot to do so push it fast…yeah right and then we have even larger problems.

I speak as one who is getting ripped most everyday by the currently faulty healh care system.  So we want this approved fast without much real study on it.

NOT ME!

And just think, they booed Obama before his healthcare garbage hit the news.  Now I guess they would through rotten tomatoes.

This guy (supposedly Thomas Paine) has some interesting points and suggestions.

Interesting, very interesting.

Los Angeles (AP) – Miss California USA Carrie Prejean, who stirred up a hornet’s nest of controversy when she expressed her opinion that gays shouldn’t be allowed to marry, got the word from pageant poobah Donald Trump on Wednesday: "You’re fired."

Trump and other pageant leaders said Prejean was being sacked not because of her controversial remarks but because she hadn’t been holding up her end of the agreement she signed when she entered the pageant.

"This was a decision based solely on contract violations, including Ms. Prejean’s unwillingness to make appearances on behalf of the Miss California USA organization," the California pageant’s executive director, Keith Lewis, said in a statement.

Lewis had complained at a news conference last month that Prejean was skipping Miss California USA events while speaking out against gay marriage at unsanctioned appearances.

There are two sides to every story though?

Translated, the Internet Safety Act applies not just to AT&T, Comcast, Verizon, and so on–but also to the tens of millions of homes with Wi-Fi access points or wired routers that use the standard method of dynamically assigning temporary addresses. (That method is called Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, or DHCP.)

I hope someone stops this junk, oh I guess I shouldn’t be concerned Obama is there to protect us all – yeah right.

The founder of the Weather Channel is ridiculing Al Gore over his calls for action on global climate change, saying in a column that global warming is a "hoax" and "bad science."

John Coleman, now a weatherman at San Diego’s KUSI, wrote on his station’s Web site Wednesday that Gore refuses to acknowledge the faulty research on which the idea of global warming is based.

And my favorite quote, which I am in full agreement with, ”Global Warming. It is the hoax. It is bad science. It is a high jacking of public policy. It is no joke. It is the greatest scam in history," Coleman wrote. ”

Well as many others have experienced it recently I got a stomach virus/flu/whatever for the past couple of days.  Tonight I feel a little shaky in that area, but nothing like what has been going on the last couple of days.

My wife has it too but I think a day or two behind me.  We both came home early Monday and stayed home today (Tuesday) with me going back in tomorrow…although I’m not 100% I am going to give it a try anyway.

My son-in-law and granddaughter have it today but at least Rebekah and Myles are clear…so far.

Oh well, that’s why I’ve been offline for a couple of days and now I’m back.

Oh yeah, I forgot about the inauguration today but wouldn’t have watched it even if I had remembered. 

I’m pretty much “Mr. Anti-Politics” especially when we are talking about a democrat.  We will see what we will see.  My only thought is that the next time the terrorists hit us the new pres will probably invite them over for dinner and negotiations.  He is a Picard and I want a Kirk!
