Yes. (This is from the Washington Post. The "through W's terms" are my words. His are below. Note the graph--that vertical axis is our debt as we try to maintain, not yet realizing that falling or stagnant wages are not just a temporary aberration.) TRUE. President Obama: "By 2008, we had seen nearly a decade in which families struggled with costs that kept rising but paychecks that didn’t; racking up more and more debt just to make the mortgage or pay tuition; to put gas in th ...

My family has been struggaling financially for a long time. My husband has worked hard at terrible jobs to keep a roof over our heads. Part of it is our own choices and part just trying to find a good steady job. I stay at home with the kids and am trying to get a work from home job as an MT to help out and still not send our kids to the babysitters. I am not complaining because we are so blessed. My husband just has an immense burden and I do not know how to help h ...

Bloomberg's ban prohibits 2-liter soda with your pizza and some nightclub mixers The city Health Department last week began sending brochures to businesses that would be affected by the latest ban, including restaurants, bars and any “food service” establishment subject to letter grades. And merchants were shocked to see the broad sweep of the new rules. “It’s not fair. If you’re gonna tell me what to do, it’s no good,” said Steve DiMaggio of Caruso’s in Cobble Hil ...

This is a video and print link from San Diego's CBS affiliate. Note the last sentence, "They will have 15 days to report to an ICE agent." They won't report. They never do.

Supporters gathered outside the San Ysidro ...

My brother died from Crack addiction 30 years. Now my son has the same problem. This is a living hell to go through for the families. Instead of just asking for prayer for me and my family I ask that you pray for all the drug addicts and their families. If it could help any of them it would be so great. I see no end in site for my family and I know there are probably families going through worse than mine. If there was a cure for this the person who invented ...

As I sat crying while watching Francine Wheeler give the White House Weekly Address, I tried to put myself in her shoes and imagine what I would do in similar circumstances. Probably just curl up in a ball and want to die myself, but if I ever came out of it, I would imagine that I would put whatever energy I had into exactly the same kind of efforts that she and her husband and other Sandy Hook families are now doing. It is indeed a "disservice" to these families to imply they are mere pr ...

I wasn't going to post or comment this weekend, but on this stormy Saturday, I just listened to some of the most powerful words from the families of the Charleston victims. They said: "I will never be able to hold her again, but I forgive you," a daughter of Ethel Lance said. "And have mercy on your soul. You hurt me. You hurt a lot of people but God forgives you, and I forgive you." Felicia Sanders -- mother of victim Tywanza Sanders and a survivor of the church shooting herself -- ...

If you want to find stable two-parent families, bypass Palin country and go to Pelosi territory. by Jonathan Rauch Saturday, May 1, 2010 Can it be? One of the oddest paradoxes of modern cultural politics may at last be resolved. The paradox is this: Cultural conservatives revel in condemning the loose moral values and louche lifestyles of "San Francisco liberals." But if you want to find two-parent families with stable marriages and coddled kids, your best bet is to bypass S ...

I was channel surfing last night and clicked on to Fox when Bill O'Reilly's show was on. Granted, I haven't seen Bill O'Reilly in some time, but he seemed to look somewhat gaunt and seemed to have less hair. Does anyone know if he's sick? I really don't care for him or his show, but I don't want him to be sick, either. Has anyone else noticed a change in his appearance, or is it just me? Just curious. ...

Something made me actually read my monthly Verizon home phone bill, and I discovered that there's a $14.95 charge for "other providers." Reading further, I discovered it's a charge from "Transaction Clearing." Apparently it's legal for Verizon to include these charges on their monthly bills, so it's a legal scam. There's a phone number for Transaction Clearing, and you shouldn't call Verizon about this. I'm almost afraid to look at my back bi ...

Today he used our money, the "stimulant" package, to buy the Nebraska vote to get it through the senate, just like he used it to buy the Louisiana vote to get it through the house.

I am thinking of using bill pay through my bank and my question specifically is if whether anyone has had a problem with it...any kind of problem...did the check get out late? any problems with delivery or lost checks?

passed by the House and the Senate and signed by the president? Did this EVER happen? To my knowledge, not. Where are the Republicans going? Resorting to violence? What a shame! BTW: Bush never vetoed a bill. He signed each one and then added "signing statements," and made his own rules, circumventing the Constitution, claiming wrongly that he could do this since he had the highest executive power. ...

So Eric Holder has done nothing but criticize the AZ immigration bill but admits he has never read the 10-page bill. How can you criticize something when you haven't even read it. How can you give factual information about what is contained in the bill if you haven't read it? Seriously.....what is it with dems? They pushed Obamacare through and most of them...if not all...didn't read the bill. However, the pubs and many citizens who were concerned abo ...

Never heard of this guy before. He sounds like quite a tool. He was listed #77 of "Most Important Talk Radio Hosts" by Talkers magazine in 2012. No big surprise there. Talk show host, Bill Press, doesn’t like the Star-Spangled Banner. Imagine: a liberal talk show that’s not on NPR! His radio show is simulcast on Current TV. Bill Press likes provoking conservatives, but I’m not sure we should be provoked by his outburst against the National Ant ...

This healthcare bill only has a few good things in it, but it was passed so it can insure 30 million people in america that don't have health insurance. there are 300 million people in the united states. The healthcare bill is not about health care or insurance at all, it's about making the government more powerful. Now they can tax our behavior. It's about expansion of government. Exerting behavioral control over american people. Th ...

Mistake in gun bill could defeat the effort One of the major gun-control efforts in Olympia this session calls for the sheriff to inspect the homes of assault-weapon owners. The bill’s backers say that was a mistake. Forget police drones flying over your house. How about police coming inside, once a year, to have a look around? As Orwellian as that sounds, it isn’t hypothetical. The notion of police home inspections was introduced in a bill last week in Olympia. That it’s pa ...
