increased by 6.4% while private sector jobs declined by 0.6% since the recession. You won't see Governor Big Hair beating his chest and boasting too much over THAT factoid.

Most of the "red" states seem to be in favor of slave labor. It goes along with pushing the middle class into poverty, which seems to be what they are doing.

They want to bring back slavery, only this time it won't be along racial lines. It will be along economic lines.

Their "sequester" has hurt a lot of people, mostly poor or low middle class.

It's also embarrassing for VT women to only make 0.84 for - every dollar a man makes. (sm)

According to 2011 data from the National Women's Law Center, Vermont is exceeded only by the District of Colombia (which is not even a state).

"States with lower taxes and less regulation outperform those that pursue Keynesian-style public policies," said study co-author Jonathan Williams, who is director of ALEC's Center for State Fiscal Reform. "And people are voting with their feet in favor of these states."

The republicans HATE any kind of regulations. So that means more "accidents" as corporations get sloppier and sloppier, all with republicans' approval and support for no regulations.

Again, more people will die.

Two words. - West, Texas. nm

I just gave a very long (sorry) update on the 15 and 16-year-old teens below, then went upstairs to get a bite. While there, knowing my son was working on a class on-line downstairs and seeing his notebook out in the open, I took the opportunity to see if there were any new notes discussing Friday night. Well, there was and, unless they know I am snooping and are trying to drive me completely insane, they did go through with it in the short time they were in his room with the do ...

Push yourself forward There are plenty of obstacles that can stand in your way. Don’t be one of them. Your own thoughts, assumptions and fears can hold you back just as surely as a solid brick wall. And yet, just as you created those self-imposed obstacles, you can let them go. Instead of fighting against yourself, use the amazing power of your thoughts to more fully enable yourself. Instead of constructing elaborate excuses for avoiding your dreams, just go ahead and let yourself live ...

Of course any report strait from Limbaugh's page has to be unbiased. Speaking of Limbaugh - he stated if health reform passes he will go to costa rica. What he forgot to research before making the statement is costa Rica health care coverage is "excellent"(american journal of public health) with life expectancy second only to canada in the western hemisphere. They have long running state run programs with 98% coverage and no co-pays. Private insurance is rare. Out o ...
