Obscenely Rich Bankers Claim to Do God's Work -- They Can Go to Hell

Nov 18, 2009 - "Repent," the preacher cried out, startling those who heard him. This was no street evangelist ranting at the passing crowd, but the archbishop of Canterbury, head of the Church of England. His sharp admonition was pointed directly at a particular set of sinners, who undoubtedly had never given any thought to the morality of their actions: the barons of global banking. - 2 Comments

Jerry Brown: Acorn, Suspicion and the Rule of Law

Nov 11, 2009 - Jerry Brown: Acorn, Suspicion and the Rule of Law by Thomas Del Beccaro According to the legendary Greek Historian Plutarch, when asked why he divorced his wife, Caesar stated that: “All women shall be as Caesar would have his wife, not only free from sin, but from suspicion.” At the time, Caesar’s wife, Pompeia, was loosely associated with the commission of a sacrilege by someone else. As recent events have confirmed, Attorney General Jerry Brown is hardly burdened by suspicions – let alone high ethical standards. jerry_brown_crossed-arms As most everyone in the political world now knows, ACORN is under investigation in many states, and by the federal government, for a host of crimes. - 0 Comments

Obamacare...a personal look.

Oct 25, 2009 - I am going to give you my personal look at Obamacare from a perspective which may seem a bit strange but in reality it should be alarming.  The interesting thing is that most of all of my childhood I went without even some of the basic things people assume most everyone has.   The only healthcare I had as a child was Medi-cal...which is the program upon which Obamacare was designed.     My father worked several part-time jobs as well as his full-time job as a Baptist minister.  He did everything possible to provide for us, worked his fingers to the bone and still managed to comfort the people in our church and help them deal with their own problems.  Not once did any congregation we served bother to possibly consider that making sure the minister and his family had any healthcare or even some of the basic necessities in life was one of their priorities. They did however call at any time of the day or night for his help and he was there for them.    Sometimes our whole family was there for them.  I was a very experienced babysitter, cook, and housekeeper before I was even 11.  This is not bitterness I speak from---it is my attempt at revealing to you that many who are among the uninsured are hardworking people often working in service-oriented positions which simply aren't offered healthcare.   So....let me get back to Medi-cal......the mentor of Obamacare.  When I hear people on the Obamacare bandwagon I think they probably don't really understand what they are supporting.   Many have never been on medi-cal. - 4 Comments

Rasmussen: What They Told Us: Reviewing Last Week’s Key Polls

Oct 24, 2009 - These days, political turmoil isn’t a one-way street. President Obama’s mediocre approval ratings and the Democrats’ internal battling over the details of the health care reform plan are the obvious headline-grabbers, but the opposition party has troubles of its own. Just 15% of Republicans who plan to vote in 2012 state primaries say the party’s representatives in Congress have done a good job of representing GOP values. - 1 Comment

Key senators may rebuff Obama on health care

Oct 22, 2009 - WASHINGTON – The Democrats' control of a hefty majority in the Senate — plus the House — would suggest that President Barack Obama is within reach of overhauling the nation's health care system this fall. But the numbers mask a more complicated reality: Obama and Democratic leaders have modest leverage over several pivotal Senate Democrats who are more concerned about their next election or feel they have little to lose by opposing their party's hierarchy. One is still smarting from being forced to abandon next year's election. - 71 Comments

Would It Be Unwise To Move In Together?

Oct 05, 2009 - I am 17 years old (turning 18 before the end of this year) and a freshman at a college 4 1/2 hours from home. My 21 year old boyfriend of six months will be graduating from college in May, while I will be transferring to a school 20 minutes away from both my parents and my boyfriend (who will be getting an apartment and doing pre-grad school work and working full time), the main reason for which is that they offer a rare program that focuses on my specific interest, and is about 1/3 the cost of my current college. My boyfriend has asked me to move in with him, and I am overjoyed. I would be almost 19 by the time, and he would have just turned 22. - 8 Comments
