Now he wants another $50B for state aid to prevent "massive layoffs of teachers, firefighters, and police." The jist I get is he'll worry about how to pay for this LATER. The GOP has come up with an alternate plan which the CBO says will save $55B in the next 10 years. Do ya think it has a chance? In an aside, Steny Hoyer (D) and John Boehner (R) is on This Week. They were just talking about the oil spill. Can you tell which one is blaming Bush? "President Obama ...

Gov. Scott Walker spoke at an invitation-only event Saturday evening for a Republican fundraiser. Walker arrived in a convoy of six unmarked police cars that pulled up at 5:45 p.m. to the Steak Pit. Perhaps he should stay back at the mansion instead of racking up public employee overtime. ...

BAGHDAD – The U.S. Defense Department is unable to properly account for over 95 percent of $9.1 billion in Iraqi oil money tapped by the U.S. for rebuilding the war ravaged nation, according to an audit released Tuesday. The report by the U.S. Special Investigator for Iraq Reconstruction offers a compelling look at continued laxness in how such funds were being spent in a country where people complain basic services like electricity and clean water are sharply lacking seven years af ...

I've had that Barenaked Ladies song in my head all day and was wondering...if I actually had a million dollars what would I do with it? (After taxes get taken out that is) Pay off my house Pay off credit cards Pay off medical bills Invest more in my 401k Donate to charities Pay off parents' debt Buy parents a house Buy sister a house Buy new vehicles for me/hubby Remodel my house like on HGTV Start college funds for our Godchildren Take a vacation with first class airfare ...

Except that they want to tax the poor while lowering taxes for the rich and rather than spend on programs that might actually help people they would rather spend a trillion and change on another war only they haven't decided yet on just where - Syria, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Yemen, take your pick. ...

The National Institutes of Health has spent millions of dollars over the past decade to fund the construction of an HIV-prevention website that, among other sexually explicit features, includes a graphic image of homosexual sex and a Space Invaders-style interactive game that uses a penis-shaped blaster to shoot down gay epithets.Read more: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/04/19/nih-under-fire-for-grants-toward-creation-homoerotic-website/?test=latestnews#ixzz1sYFHH7TX I understand the need ...

Paul Egerman, founder of eScription, doesn't know how many millions he has saved from the Bush tax cuts, but it may be more than $10 million. When asked what he has done with all that cash, he said "I have kept it. I haven't done anything with that money." http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/06/06/patriotic-millionaires-bush-tax-cuts_n_871840.html ...

The Obama administration on Tuesday backed a proposal to spend up to $6 billion more on subsidies for electric vehicles, amid renewed interest on Capitol Hill in measures to cut petroleum consumption in response to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill. Okay...so more money being spent by the govt. We do not have the money to spend on this. Some cons to the electric car: Current batteries have relatively short trip capacity.Recharge time can be hours, so you don't just stop at the station f ...

I know the whole, "better to give than receive" and "Children should know the real meaning of Christmas" etc., I was just wondering with the prices of items today how much does a personal typically spend on their children for Christmas? My husband always complains and says I spend too much on ours and I tried to cut back this year, but still ended up spending around $1500 on two children, ages 9 and 12 and really it looks like they are having a very small Christmas. I am not complain ...

The Washington Post delivers a "Pinocchio Test" every time a candidate says something that is not based on fact that's interesting to follow. The reason it is a rating scale is because they check what they said for fact and it's a ranged scale, from 1 to 4, based on everything from possible misinterpretations and selective truth-telling to outright falsehoods. Here's the scale: http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/fact-checker/about-the-fact-checker/ Apparently, Marc Rubio ...

I just can't believe, with all the problems in this country, that the Dept. of Agriculture is wasting money and time on Hemmingway's babies.

The museum’s nine-year bid to keep the cats beyond the reach of the Department of Agriculture ended in failure this month. The United States Court of Appeals for the 11th ...

a registered Democrat announced his decision to leave the agency in a Washington Post column published Sunday, writing that his departure "had nothing to do with politics." Edward Price resigned from the CIA last week and used the Washington Post to explain his decision that he could not "in good faith serve this administration as an intelligence professional." Price wrote that his "decision had nothing to do with politics," and that he "would have been proud to again work under a Republican ...

How much money does it cost for Air Force One and the presidential motorcade to be in Charlotte to campaign for Clinton? That is our money. I tried to find out if it is common for the sitting president to go out on the campaign trail for the next president and found that in most cases, they were very careful not to get too involved. - but Obama doesn't care and neither does Hillary - they think they can do no wrong..... I still believe that when we elect a president, th ...

We're talking the London School of Economics here, folks. They don't come much higher on the educational ladder than that. Some people don't seem to understand that the climate warming scam is all about two things: Power (control) and money. The very moment that money and control became aligned with the question of global warming, any pretense at scientific inquiry flew out the window and the vultures (yes, folks, scientists can be extremely vulturish) convened. ...

To hawk their debate, they're trying to build up the Iowa caucus as some kind of big deal, which it never has been except for being the first primary, and patting themself on the back for "not letting journalism to be manipulated by a politician." What this is really about, people, is money, pure and simple. The debates bring Fox huge revenues, and the ratings will definitely be down if Trump isn't on the stage. Megyn Kelly's undisguised dislike for Trump completely d ...

slave-like conditions in other countries. The workers are forced to labor for up to 20 hours a day in some cases—often under total surveillance and with very little food. Most of the workers receive no pay. In the cases when a worker does receive compensation, it is only a few cents for every dollar given to the North Korean government. The government forces tens of thousands of its citizens to work abroad in this program, and the numbers are increasing. China and Russia hire the major ...

This is such a hard question to ask but you guys seem to give great advice and I need some direction. I have been married for 21 years with 4 kids but I am finding that I have changed so much and although I love my husband I am not in love with him and I would much prefer to just be left alone. He can be verbally abusive even though if I ever said that he would never believe it. He does not see what others see. I have reached a point where I just don' ...

Sometimes, when I read posts about MTs going through hard times (many of us these days), I think about inviting one of them to stay in my home for perhaps a year in order to get a little ahead. I live alone in a rural area and have a lovely home. There's not much to do here, but it's pleasant enough, and the cost of living is reasonable. I've been through a few rough patches myself, but I'm with a pretty stable company now and am enjoying my work. I� ...
