  • Just because you CAN, does not mean you SHOULD. Nor does it mean it is acceptable in any way, shape or form.

    This was disgusting beyond belief.

  • Not even going to address Obama’s comments, because we all know they are lies, and not even good ones.

    However, if all of these millionaires think they need to pay more, there is nothing stopping them. Leave the tax laws alone (or better yet, chuck them all out the window) and let them send in a check for more if they wish. Nothing is stopping them from doing that. There is no law that says you cannot pay more than what your tax return says you have to.

  • While I agree that BofA is not a company I want to do business with, it is not for their reasons… ugh.

    I just hope I still get a chance to vote in November to get rid of Obama and all of his organizer cronies… OWS is a symptom, not the problem.

  • Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I was taught growing up that once you turn eighteen (when your parents are no longer legally responsible for you) it is illegal NOT to have state-issued ID. It is no different than getting a license to drive, you just go down to the office and fill out a form, take a picture and give a fingerprint. Why is that such an issue?

    This is not about race, or age or anything else someone may wish to try and make it be about. This is about me knowing that when I give my vote, it is really ME voting, and not someone who picked my name to try and vote with. I have always presented my ID, even before it was law that I had to, and I will continue doing so, law or no law. It just makes sense to make sure that the person is who they say they are.

  • This is absolutely disgusting, and those officers should BOTH lose their jobs and receive full psych assessments.

    The dog is there FOR A REASON. To not only NOT use the dog, but to shot a man ten times for raising a weapon and flinching in the direction of the officers is beyond inappropriate, it is criminal. Those officers need to no longer be officers. If the psych assessment comes back okay, throw their murdering asses in jail.

    This is insanity, pure and simple.

  • It might be nice if they could at least get the date of the 9/11 attacks right…

    Anyone else wonder how OBL is responsible for an attack that (according to their story) hasn’t even happened yet?

  • If the issue is how much the districts are spending on “assault pay” then shouldn’t something be done about that, instead of giving teachers the idea that the union basically EXPECTS them to stand by and watch while their students are assaulted? Better the student than the teacher, since they don’t have to pay any “assault pay” to the student? There are several ways the teacher SHOULD have handled this, and none of them are standing there while it happened and just watching. The union should be ashamed of themselves for their excuses and their cowardly reaction, as should that “teacher.”

  • Let us take this to its logical conclusion, then.

    Since using such names is racist, not only do we need to remove any name that references a Native American, but also anything that references any other ethnic group. Therefore, no more ‘Fighting Irish’ of Notre Dame, no more ‘Sooners’ of OU, no more ‘Redskins’ football. Now, of course, to make sure no one is offended or hurt, we also will need to keep closer tabs on what people say, so making any comment that could be offensive to any minority group (especially if you are a member of a majority group) will be immediately labeled as hate crime and you will be facing severe prison time, because this is a very serious matter. Next, once all racial, ethnic and minority issues have been handled, we have to tackle the majority issues. No more man-bashing for the women, no more jokes about women belonging in the kitchen, no more fat or skinny references, no references to anyone in any way that anyone in that group could possibly term offensive at all. Once this happens, we will live in a perfect utopia, where no one is ever offended in any way, shape or form, and we all live happily… and likely silently, since we will all be too scared to say or write or even think the wrong thing.

    Not everyone is going to be nice and sensitive to my feelings. But that is okay, because then I know the ones who are do it because they are genuinely nice people. That is the way I prefer the world to be.

  • I don’t know about anyone else here, but I have worked in the service industry, and it made me even more determined that I tip according to how good the service is. For standard, but not exceptional service, I leave about double the tax here, or about 15% (usually closer to 16-17). For exceptional service, I give more, up to 30% at times, and I compliment them to their manager. Horrible service, feel glad if all I did was leave you a lousy $2, since I normally complain.

    And no, it really doesn‘t take that much extra to move from ’standard‘ to ’exceptional’ in my book. However, if part of your earnings is supposed to be your tip, you had better work hard to earn it, just like I’ve worked hard to earn the money I am paying you with. I think many people in service industries forget they have to EARN that tip, since most places don’t automatically add it to the bill.

    Someone else said something about delivery fees. I agree with them. Why should I add more than $3-5 at most as a tip, when I am already paying $2-$10, just to have some guy deliver it? If this guy doesn’t get punched for his blog, I wouldn’t be surprised if he gets sued.

  • I’ve noticed something. The more intimidated the left is by a person or idea, the more viciously they attack; Mr. West, Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck, women who think it is okay to be a stay at home mom and raise our children according to God’s standard instead of the standards of the left, etc.

    Anyone else notice this pattern?
