House Republicans Declare War on Secret Earmarks & Wasteful Spending


It doesn't matter if you are Republican, Democrat or other.... you have to agree that this is wrong. Pork-Barrel projects and spending is wrong. If it is not good enough to stand on its own, then it should not be burried in another, often unrelated, bill to be rubber stamped and milk taxpayers out of billions of dollars.

This week on the House floor Democrats in Congress will begin their efforts in earnest to hide pork-barrel projects from voters, budget watchdog groups, and Republicans who challenge wasteful spending.

Call, write and email your represenative and congressperson to tell them that this tactic is not welcome.

She's Baaaaaaaaaaaack


Paris has been returned to LA County Jail.....

Paris Hilton was just ordered back to jail in Lynwood to serve out the remainder of her sentence! She'll get credit for at least 5 days already served.

There may still be justice in America..

Lady justice is blindfolded for a reason. Race, religion, social status is not supposed to have any weight on justice.
imho

help someone today

Sharkson speaks on Paris

Imagine that- Paris is released from jail after just a few horrific nights of tears and bad clothing, and Al Sharpton has words to share with America about it.

"This early release gives all the appearances of economic and racial favoritism that is constantly cited by poor people and people of color," the civil-rights leader and president of National Action Network said Thursday, according to the Drudge Report. "There are any number of cases of people who handle being incarcerated badly and even have health conditions that are not released."

**I hate to admit it, but I agree with Sharkson on that one.** :-(

"I have served several sentences for civil rights and civil disobedience actions and I even fasted, which caused health concerns to prison authorities who paid for a doctor to come see me daily rather than release me," Sharpton said.
Yeah, well- The grand poobah of 'civil rights' should still be in jail too.

So it appears that Paris was released due to the emotional strain that jail caused... well DUH!!! It's jail. It's meant to be a shock, a blow to ones emotions. You've committed a crime. There a better people who have had worse experiences in jail, but they still had to serve the sentence handed them. DWI and DUI are serious issues, and multiple violations is inexcusable. She was given a second and third chance, but violated the terms of her parole- essentially telling the justice system that feels above the law or superior to anyone who enforces them.
She should serve the full sentence, tears and all. imho

Give a helping hand

Paris is out


After serving barley 5 days of a 40 day sentence, Paris Hilton has been released from Jail with an ankle bracelet.
She was released for 'medical' reasons.
She will be serving her time under house arrest rather than in jail....
Wow that'll be rough. She'll have to stay home with the staff all day. That might fall under cruel and unusual punishment.

Rosie Memoirs??

Oh Goody, Rosie may now publish her inane paranoid rambling for more sheeple to get all excited about.

Rosie has left the building, never to return


Pheeeewww.
Rosie has left the view, and claims she will not return. Now if we can just keep her from popping up somewhere else.......

World Dominance, nothing else

Muslims and Islam is on the track to world dominance.
They move into a country and then start taking over, demanding power and rewriting history. Their goal is clearly stated by many of their leaders, eliminate anyone not muslim by death or conversion, those are the options.
So, if you are not a muslim, be assured that you will sooner or later be confronted with the choice death or islam.
Resist and keep your freedom.

Rosie and Elisabeth... Full Scream Ahead...

Business as usual in D.C.

No matter which corrupt group is in control, things do not change much.

On Wednesday, Democrats suggested changing the House rules to limit the minority's right to offer motions to recommit bills back to committee -- violating a protection that has been in place since 1822.
Consistently, Democrats have prevented Republicans from offering amendments to legislation on the floor, which was standard procedure under GOP rule, too.


The representatives in D.C. are supposed to be looking out for the best interests of the people and the country. Instead, they are fighting each other for pet projects and power. What a waste. A waste of time, money and resources. Our resources. Our time. Our money.
Taxes go up, gas prices go up, interest rates go up, housing prices go up, food prices go up, credit card balances go up, and the salaries of our representatives go up, meanwhile our wallets and bank accounts shrink.

What to do????
Pray for wisdom. Pray that the government would straighten up. Pray for change.

Legacy of sharpton

The admirable legacy of Al Sharpton.
He is a bigot and a charlatan. He will not even apologize when he is wrong, citing 'moral' objections.... what is more moral in that situation than admitting you are wrong?

****Update****
I think this quote sums up Sharpton:

Sharpton once explained, “I was on some show this week, and people said, ‘Why don’t you just let it go? Why don’t y’all just get over it?’ Get over what? Get over Dr. King dying? Get over Medger Evers dying? Get over Goodman, Chaney and Schwerner dying? Get over those four girls in Birmingham dying? We are never gonna get over it, and we are never gonna let you forget it!”

He is not interested in unity. He is not interested in reconciliation. He is not interested in healing. He is not interested in forgiveness.
He is interested in Racism. He is interested in Separatism. He is interested in reopening wounds to infect them with hate and bigotry. He is interested in revenge, retribution and riots.
Sharpton will not let the healing happen so that we can move on and grow as a nation. Rather than being a beacon of light for change, Sharpton lurks in the dark shadows of hate for personal gain and to stroke his ego.

Say no to Sharpton and yes to forgiveness and healing.

Just when you thought it was safe... Bobby Trendy: I'm the Next Rosie!

Parents, keep your kids locked up, and The View turned off.

TMZ.com is reporting that Rosie O'Donnell is ditching "The View" after this season -- and none other than celebufriend/designer Bobby Trendy is gunning for her spot.

TMZ spotted the train wreck taffeta-wrapped tastemaker outside Sugar last night, where he expressed his desire to join the daily gab-fest, telling our cameras, "I have many views and I love confrontation ... just give me a week on 'The View,' get the Trendy view." Wouldn't you just love to see Trendy sassing out Babwa or giving Joy a horrendous, pink-lace, tulle and rhinestone makeover? Maybe not.

Jared the Subway Guy -- College Porno King?

TMZ.com: Today, he's Jared Fogel the friendly Subway guy. To scores of Indiana U. students back when, he was their in-dorm porno-rental superstore. Eat fresh!

Amazing how many business get their start in the dorm rooms of campuses all across the US...

The Hypocrisy continues

The latest from Al 'civil rights' Sharpton:

The linked story from the CNN website:
He also accused Romney's campaign of engaging in "a blatant effort to fabricate a controversy to help their lagging campaign."

Did you catch that? AL SHARPTON accused Romney of FABRICATING A CONTROVERSY!!!!!!
The grand wizard of fabricating controversy is crying foul!! Hypocrite. Spotlight grubbing hypocrite.
He is supposedly a 'civil rights' leader.... Don't civil rights apply to all Americans? Shouldn't he be championing the cause of all American whose civil rights have been violated?
No, because he is the epitome of the bigot he speaks out against. The only thing Al Sharpton wants from all of this is publicity. He needs the attention. He is a sad, pitiful man who needs attention to survive.
Al Sharpton has no more interest in equal civil rights for all Americans than terrorists or The Klan. He is one of the biggest perpetuators of bigotry and racism in America.
The Declaration of Independence says:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness-
I am not naive, I know racism and bigotry still exists. By nature of being Human it will always exist, but, rather than drawing attention to it in a way that promotes unity and tolerance, Sharpton creates division and perpetuates hate, bigotry and racism.

imho

Sharpton..... Bigot

The "reverend" Al Sharpton slams Mitt Romney for being Mormon, then (surprise, surprise) denies it.
Be sure to listen to the audio of the 'debate'
Sharpton's response to his critics:
'Rather, the New York Democrat said he was contrasting himself with Christopher Hitchens, the atheist author he was debating at the time.'

Riiiiiiiiiiiiight..... and Don Imus was referring to only the white players on the Rutgers team....

One of these days Sharpton needs to be held responsible for the words that spew from his face hole and the actions he incites in the sheeple who follow him.

imho

Paris in springtime.....

Paris in springtime is lovely, but Paris in the summer - behind bars!!!!
No one is above the law, but Paris and her mom think that A DUI conviction, suspended drivers license and a parole violation are not sufficient crimes to warrant 45 days of jail time.
Why should she be any different?
Why should she have different laws?
Why should she be exempt from the consequences of her actions?
She should be glad they stopped her before she killed someone.

What would mom think if a drunk driver killed Paris? I bet she would be the first one screaming for the death penalty.

By contrast, Ty Pennington maned up and apologized for being stupid when he was arrested for a DUI this last weekend.
The difference? PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY...... Taking responsibility for ones actions, good or bad.

Good luck in your temporary housing Paris, you'd better wear underwear this time.......

Imus to CBS -- You Wanted "Irreverent," Now Pay Up!

TMZ.com: Don Imus may get the last laugh -- because the contract he signed with CBS seems to court the very behavior that got him fired.

And I sure hope he does get the $40 mil from CBS... Maybe CBS could go after the good ol' Rev. Sharpton and recoup some of their losses after they hand over that check payable to Imus for $40 mil...

Sharpton Marches Against Words He Won't Apologize For

TMZ.com: Reverend Al Sharpton took to the streets of Manhattan today to protest sexism, racism and homophobia in music, however, the soapboxer has a history of firing off blatantly offensive slurs himself -- for which he's reportedly never apologized. Hypocritical?

Imus may have the last laugh

Don Imus is not shrinking away with his tail between his legs...
Lets hope he recuperates some of his contract. Afterall it looks like he was within his contract.

Imus had $40 million remaining on a multiyear contact that began in 2006 and included a clause that CBS wanted him to be "irreverent" and "controversial," according to CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin, who was shown part of the contract

Maybe he can sue Sharkson for something too...

It's not over.

A peculiar day for immigration rallies

Lou Dobbs has quite the piece today over at CNN regarding the immigration rallies being held on May 1st. It's a good read...

http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/05/01/Dobbs.May2/index.html

It was also an unfortunate and ironic choice on the part of the organizers of the demonstrations. May 1 in the United States is actually Law Day, a day first established by President Eisenhower in 1958 and ultimately codified into law in 1961 at the beginning of John F. Kennedy's administration. The purpose of Law Day is to give all Americans an opportunity to reflect on our legal heritage, and by statute, encourages "the cultivation of the respect for law that is so vital to the democratic way of life."

Islam, A religion of peace?

Another top islamic cleric speaks out for peace... The problem is his definition of peace is the annihilation of Jews and Americans....

Transcript from the 'sermon'

Wake up America! Wake up Democrats! Israel believes them. Israel understands. The islamist terrorists are world wide. They are fighting for islamic supremacy in America. They are fighting for the koran to be the most important book/document in America. They want to deify the koran, to make mistreating it or even speaking against it a capital offense.
Wake up America, before political correctness & sensitivity turns into oppression & an extreme theocracy.

More trouble over at NBC... and they stand to hand over $48.5+ million

TMZ.com has the full story about the NBC settling a gigantic lawsuit in which Max Mutchnick and David Kohan, the creators of Will & Grace, alleged NBC screwed them out of a fortune in profits by cooking the books. In a bizarre twist, the case settled after the jury rendered a verdict. TMZ knows what that verdict was -- $48.5 million plus an untold amount in punitive damages.

NBC News statement on gunman's video

Network to limit airtime for material, ackowledging 'immesurable' pain

...Beginning this morning, we have limited our usage of the video across NBC News, including MSNBC, to no more than 10 percent of our airtime....

Full statement: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/18200115/

How kind of them. I did hear on one of the talkshows as to what exactly in minutes their 10% airtime is... I'll see if I can dig it up.

Media Irony

MSNBC cancels/fires Don Imus for the comment he made regarding the Rutgers womens basketball team, yet, they'll run the videos and images to no end that Cho Seung-hui, the man identified as the killer at Virginia Tech.

Sure, its not racial comments, however, when the lives of 32 innocent people are affected, the last thing that needs to happen is exactly what the killer wanted... his media package sent to NBC to be engrained in the mind of every individual on earth.

Here is Sharkson's Chance......

Here is Sharkson's chance to man up to what they 'preach' .....
Condemn this child molester, denounce his actions, speak up for the GIRL who was victimized......

http://www.hollywoodgrind.com/?p=5355

Racism is racism

With all his efforts to "free blacks", Sharpton has put himself in the same league as the KKK, Skinheads, the NoI, Westboro Baptist Church, Neo-Nazis, Islamic Terrorists and any other person or group that spews hate from their face holes.
He is nothing more than a thug/terrorist with a silver tounge, espousing hate and separatism veiled behind his self proclaimed title of Reverend........
I will not deny that people judge others by external appearance, and that there is still some 'black specific racism' in America. I also believe it is wrong.
BUT, all I see Sharpton (and Jackson for that matter, here after known as sharkson) doing is widening and deepeing the casm. He speaks of blacks walking tall with pride. But will not accept whites unless they are on their knees. If he truely cares about equallity and unity, then he would condemn ALL hate speech reguardles of origin, condemn ALL sexist speech reguardless of origin. But the evidence I see is that his rhetoric is simply a means to his end.... $$$$!!

"If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love" 1 Corinthians 13

Seems to me that a "reverend" would have run accross this in The Bible.

Since when does Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson speak for every American?

The parasitic duo do not speak for me.

What 'march' have they lead against the rap music and lyrics? According to the program on Fox News right now, they could find no record of them leading any marches or calling for a reform on music and lyrics.

What about CBS who owns MTV? Are they going to clean that up now, in light of the recently controversy that has swirled around this past week in the media?

Don't you think Sharpton stirred up even more controversy by repeating the statement that Imus said over and over and over again on every media appearance Sharpton made? The only clip that had been re-run was the exact statement, not the entire segment in which the statement was made on Imus's show.

Hypocrisy at CBS

So, CBS fires Imus, because of the comment Imus made on-air, and CBS's statement contains this line:

"there has been much discussion of the effect language like this has on our young people, particularly young women of color trying to make their way in this society."
(Source: http://www.foxnews.com/wires/2007Apr12/0,4670,ImusCBSText,00.html)

Well, if they were that concerned... why do they own MTV and run the trash they do? What about BET? Yup, CBS owns that too...

Vieira Raps Rev. for Racial "Double Standard"

TMZ.com: Meredith Vieira turned the tables on Rev. Al Sharpton this morning, blasting him for not doing enough to stop black rappers from using words like "ho" and "b**ch" in their lyrics while excoriating Don Imus for doing so. Snap!

HA!

CNN: Sharpton and Jackson On Scene at CBS

Just saw CNN reporting that Sharpton and Jackson are on scene at CBS in New York holding a rally. No doubt they'll be call on CBS to cancel the Imus show.

Just think if they spent all this time doing good things? Maybe they wouldn't be so hypocritical.

Don Imus & Rosie and The View

In light of the recent comments that Don Imus made on his show, when is America going to hold Rosie and The View accountable for the comments she has made? Her 9/11 theories, her excessive rants?

O'Reilly Factor - Sharpton Responds to Imus Analysis

On Tuesday's Factor FNC media analyst Bernard Goldberg contended that Don Imus should not be judged by "race hustlers" like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson, who ignore the "real problems that plague black America." Sharpton entered the No Spin Zone Wednesday with his response. "To act as though the black community should not be concerned with how their young women are being portrayed is ridiculous. We deal with many issues, and one is the use of race language." The Factor challenged Sharpton to extend his outrage to record companies and rappers. "Are you now going to hold Ludacris and Snoop Dogg accountable? Step it up, go after the companies that hire them and something good might come out of this." Sharpton vowed that his crusade against Imus is just the beginning. "After getting rid of Mr. Imus, we need to look at the corporations that own record companies and radio stations. We're going to go after anybody that uses the 'ho' and 'b' words. Imus may be the beginning of a long walk."

Oh great, with a comment like that, it doesn't look like Sharpton will be keeping a low profile...

10 things more newsworthy than Don Imus

Thank God there is someone out there who has better things to report on than the whole Don Imus spew.

Don Imus and Rev. Sharpton's Astronomical Sized Mouth

Why is it that the good Rev. Sharpton always shows up on scene, when he is really not needed?

Can't the women of the Rutgers basketball team speak well enough for themselves?

Does Sharpton always need to become a mouthpiece?

Imus got his punishment (two week suspension)... Now Al, go fight other worthwhile causes, and quit calling for the resignation of him.

Rev. Al Sharpton

"It is amazing how (Al Sharpton) propogates the bigotry that (he) claims to be trying to eliminate."

John Edwards And His Controversial Campaign Bloggers

Apparently even John Edwards wants to get into the blogging game these days, while he drives down the road to hopefully come to an end at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

However, as Fox News and Bill O'Reilly reported, apparently these bloggers made the Edwards campaign look like they couldn't even make a simple decision to fire these two bloggers that were on the payroll, after their controversial remarks, offending a large voter constituency.

I'm not sure these two would have lasted on my staff after the comments that O'Reilly reported about last night on The O'Reilly Factor. The comments were pretty harsh and disgusting.

So long, good riddance.

Proof That Traffic Tickets Can Come Back and Haunt

TMZ.com has obtained a traffic ticket given to Larry Birkhead back in April 15, 2006.

Wendy McCaw Breaks Silence... to Employees

Well for those of you following the News-Press debacle, the Independent was leaked a confidential memo that Wendy McCaw has crafted to state the News-Press stance on the ongoing meltdown.

Obama and his smoking...

Various media outlets are running pieces on Senator Barack Obama and his smoking habits. He's claimed to smoke less than five cigarettes a day. The media outlets are now jumping on this bandwagon, asking if it will hurt his chances to run for the Presidency in 2008, if he continues to smoke.

I'm not sure what smoking has to do with policy, etc. and why it would affect someones chances to run, but nonetheless, there will be outspoken politicians on this issue.

Anna's Death Fridge

TMZ.com is reporting that it has obtained an exclusive photo of Anna Nicole Smith's refrigerator in the Bahamas. The refrigerator, which was located in Anna Nicole's bedroom, contained methadone, along with other various items. They claim they have verified the authenticity of the photos.

The saga continues...

Philadelphia Steak Shop Sign Debate

WPVI Philadelphia is runnnig a story about a local steak shop owner who has put a sign in this window stating "This is America: when ordering please speak English."

I originally saw a piece on this on CNN's Newsroom Sunday, and the owner, Joey Vento, did have a valid point. After talking to the Joey, the point of first amendment rights were brought up.

There is a public hearing that will be taking place before the city's human relations commission, but there has been no date set yet.

Does this fall within the realm of first amendment issues? Does a business owner not have the right to state his opinion via a sign he's placed in his window? Interestingly enough, the article referenced here goes on to state that a lady named Margie Abreu, who is the daughter of Spanish speaking parents, says the sign does not offend her.

2 Teen Brothers Sentenced for Cooking Puppy to Death

Fox News is reporting on two teenage brothers in Atlanta being sentenced to 10 years for cooking a puppy to death.

A read of the story is quite sickening when it gets into the details on the puppy.

I'm glad they got 10 years, although they deserve more, for committing this act upon a helpless creature.

But one must wonder... why would kids do this in the first place. (The boys are reported as being 17 and 19.) I would have to question the childhood and values the parents placed (or obviously didn't place) in these kids upbringing.

Los Angeles Hospital Dumps Paraplegic on Skid Row

The AP is reporting that a 41-year old paraplegic man was dumped on skid row.

The AP article states that "Witnesses told police a van from Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center pulled up to a tiny park in the grimy area near downtown at 10:45am Thursday, a side door opened and a man, dressed in a green hospital gown and pants, began struggling to get out. The driver looked on."

I don't care who you are, but there is no human being that deserves to be 'dumped' along a road. Obviously, he was at the hospital for a reason, and whether or not his time was up at the hospital, he did not deserve to be dumped along a road, with no services around.

The price of doing this? The Los Angeles City Attorney's office filed an indictment for homeless dumping against Kaiser Permanente for a similar incident earlier last year.

The Three Ring Media Circus on the Death Anna Nicole Smith

Oh I'm sure everyone has heard by now, Anna Nicole Smith is dead, at age 39. Still feuding is Howard K. Stern and Larry Birkhead, who both lay claim to being Dannielynn Hope Marshall Stern (Anna Nicole Smith's 5-month old daughter).

On Friday, in Los Angeles, CA, a judge refused to order an emergency DNA test on Smith's body, which was requested by Larry Birkhead, who is claiming to be the father of Dannielynn.

Now, let's jump to Florida...
The Broward County, FL medical examiner performed an autospy on Smith's body, with the autospy being inconslusive. He stated it will take three to five weeks for toxicological reports.

Now, let's jump back to California...
Zsa Zsa Gabor... remember her? Well, it's not her this time, its her husband, Prince Frederick von Anhalt, who has jumped on the bandwagon, saying that he had a decade-long affair with Anna Nicole, and he may be the father of little Dannielynn. He wants file a lawsuit if Dannielynn is turned over to either Howard K. Stern or Larry Birkhead.

A lot of jumping around today on just one case. I'm sure the female astronaut that held the #1 news position earlier this week about her shenanigans driving from Texas to Florida to possibly attempt murdering another lady that had an interest in the same male astronaut.

Are you noticing a Florida theme lately?!

Madam Speaker's Hopeful New Digs in the Air

Does Madam Speaker really need a plane that can fly her from DC to her California home without having to stop for refueling? See CNN article.

Yes, while it would be extremely convenient to fly non-stop, is it really that she can't spare a few precious minutes to refuel and get on with the trip?

Recent reports today state that Nancy herself did not request the larger aircraft, but instead, the House Sergeant-At-Arms did.
