The big showdown in O-HI-O Tuesday: State Unions vs. Tea Parties

By

I will def be there in support of the Columbus Ohio tea party group.
Not only will Columbus Ohio tea party chapter will be there but other tea party groups plus some of the 9/12 groups will be at the statehouse Tuesday morning
However, there are a huge concern. For one, I was talking to a Columbus Police Officer and he says the dept expects to see 20,000 people from both sides come to the statehouse. There is a strong concern for a possibility of riots breaking out.

LONG LIVE THE TEA PARTY!

LOL. The WI dem flight becoming a cottage industry?

By

Cute, I’ve seen two stories today about some peripherial effects of the Wisconsin Senate Dems’ fleeing like a deposed dictator. One stupid and one slightly humorous.

First the stupid: Friday night, a Madison restaurant blogged on the company website that they had to tell Governor Walker to leave because his presence was creating a ruckus among the other patrons. Some heavy-hitting lefty blogs cried out "Aw hell yeah!" at the move.

Then another blogger called the restaurant with some questions, and all of the sudden the restaurant backtracks, saying "maybe it happened, maybe it didn’t". The phone call was recoreded, and some unintentional comedy ensues as the restaurant employee on the phone doesn’t know which button terminates the call, and the internet is blessed with a cover-up recorded live.

A news outlet called the governor, and he said he has never been to that restaurant in his life. So a ruckus ensued among the political blogosphere over a lame attempt by a restaurant to gain street cred among the union crowd and drum up business.

On a lighter note, New Rockford, Illinois is using their newfound status as Dem refuge to entice others to "hide away". Link to the advertisement is included at this link:

Uncivil War Coming To America?

By

I see the potential of an uncivil war stirring up in America between the left and the right. Look at all this hate going on between the parties. There is so much anger; so many emotions being stirred up. Yes, the two sides never agreed politically, but I see the divide getting worse. Also, there is a lot of unrest across the world. America may appear more civil than that, but when I look at the anger brewing I don’t doubt that the civility could snap at any moment and we could be hurled into unrest.

What are your thoughts?

I pay Social Security $551 a month yet my account balance is $0

By

I noticed I’m paying Social Security $551.75 a month, no small amount so I looked in the Social Security trust fund vault and its empty? :think: It seems Congress spent all my money what the ****? Is this how socialist programs work? :eh: I’m pretty sure if I invested this money in the stock market my account balance wouldn’t be $0.

Fianna Fáil FAILS

By

The governing party in Ireland, Fianna Fáil, has well and truly FAILED, getting wiped out in the Irish General Elections, coming in fourth overall.

Fine Gael is expected to have enough seats to govern alone or with the support of independents and Labour came in second. Independents came in third and Sinn Fein came in fifth.

Ironically. the Green Party, which triggered this election by pulling out of the government, is expected to be completely wiped out of the Irish Parliament.
