• Pelosi: Holder Contempt Vote a ‘Plan’ by GOP to Suppress Voter Rights

  I’m just amazed, partisanship notwithstanding, that the democrats seemingly have zero interest with wanting to know…who did this?

  Ha – I submitted a proposal to the government one time; got an email back in a few weeks asking me to please clarify the “blah – blah -blah” on page 14….quite embarassing!

  Were not pierceings/earrings signs of slavery way way back?

• Honor Flight: Crowd of Complete Strangers Cheer WWII Vets as They Deboard Plane at D.C. Airport

  June 8, 2012 at 8:36am

  I took my dad (WWII – USS Columbia-South Pacific) up to WWII Memorial and Arlington. Arranged for him to lay a wreath at Tomb of the Unknown in honor of his brother (lost at sea-immortalized on one of the slabs at Battery Park, NYC). I had also gotten him a WWII Veteran ball cap. Flew from Charleston to DC and back. The number of people who came up and thanked him was simply amazing! One elderly lady in tears said “you boys went through so much for us”…I have a pic on my wall here of him at the Tomb. I’ll never forget it!!

• Proposal in New Highway Bill Would Mandate Trackers on Semis — and Some Truckers Aren’t Happy

  May 18, 2012 at 9:09am

  i worked at a grocery store 1969-1970 in Gainesville FL (GO GATORS!). Even that far back the semis that brought the case goods had a paper disc/clock type recording system that graphed the time/duration as to whether the truck was running or not. The drivers hated it, said that mgt used that to see if they were taking breaks along the way or not.

• Teen Atheist Behind Prayer Mural Ban Wants Contentious WWI & WWII Cross Removed

  Why not just sell the spot to the memorial organization (create it if not already there) and then it is on private property.

• Animal Cruelty? Shocking Photos Surface of Elderly Man Using Truck to Pull Horse

  April 24, 2012 at 12:58pm

  It’s just the way some things are. My grandaddy bought a litter of pigs each spring to raise through the summer. Like his daddy before him, he would castrate the males with a razor blade. He’d prob go to jail for it now.

  Farm life is just different….

• State Attorney Says There Will Be No Grand Jury in Trayvon Martin Case

  April 9, 2012 at 2:02pm

  Perhaps the DA doesn’t want anything behind “closed doors” as the Grand jury would be. That they want to be able to do everything in public (court)
