The good news - infrastructure jobs will forever be filled primarily by American workers.

Unlike the millions of manufacturing, textile, and customer service jobs that the American 'Job Creators' were and are hellbent to export to faraway lands, unfortunately.

Tough news for Romney on the eve of the big debate. A federal judge in Pennsylvania has struck down the new gop-rigged voter registration laws. And the bond credit rating people at Moody's have determined that oprama is going to win.

Heh. Tell Mitt to roll his sleeves back up - he won't have to build the pipeline by hisself.

Both Sides Agree: Keystone Pipeline Will Be Approved After the November Election

heh at 'kudos to CNN'. CNN and the administration got crossways over CNN's coldblooded use of Stevens' personal diary. Guess they decided to be fair and balanced for a day or two.

I suppose you can edit out the words Rice ALWAYS spoke when referencing the embassy attack, that information was "preliminary and evolving." But now that the intelligence community has taken the blame for the incorrect early assessments, the story really has no legs except for the usual suspects.

From NPR no less.....


Before the attacks on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi that killed Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans, the U.S. mission had made "repeated requests" for more security at the compound.

According to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform those requests by U.S. mission in Libya were denied by "officials in Washington."

"Based on information provided to the committee by individuals with direct knowledge of the events in Libya, the attack that claimed the ambassador's life was the latest in a long line of attacks on Western diplomats and officials in Libya in the months leading up to Sept. 11, 2012," the lawmakers write. "It was clearly never, as administration officials once insisted, the result of a popular protest."

toe's newfound concern for American casualties in the ME is as commendable as it is long overdue. Odd how it just finally clicked.. after so many years and so many tens of thousands of US dead and wounded.

As is Tick's concern about lies coming out of the WH, and the blatant promotion of the incumbent by MSM.

Obama basically accomplished in Libya with air power and zero US casualties what dubya managed in Iraq with 4500 dead US servicemen and 150k wounded at a cost of 1-2 trillion.

Unfortunately, one main difference between the two is how Iran got a huge boost out of the US taking down Iraq, their biggest rival and sworn enemy, and how they're gaining control there now that their Shiite cousins are mostly running the show.

But yeah, according to a few numbskulls the attack on our Libyan embassy is bigger than all of that. Because of the movie lie, damnit!

To illustrate the liberal tendency to use government power to impose their wierd utopian dogma on the individual, at the expense of freedom, I cite three recent examples: a New Yorker no longer has the personal freedom to buy a large soft drink thanks to the paternally totalitarian instincts of the liberal mayor of New York. CalifornIans who believe (incorrectly, in my opinion) that homosexuality is "curable" can now go to prison for pursuing their beliefs. The full force of the government of California will crush anyone who offends the dogma of the gay lobby just like Middle Eastern start rioting whenever they think their prophet is being dissed. And thanks to the feminist lobby, the US government has used its authority to order the Catholic Church to violate their religious beliefs and pay for birth control and abortifacients, which is outrageous as forcing mosques or synagogues to provide free pork.

If you want see liberalism's tendency to use government power to brutally hasten their version of the Millenium, see Josef Stalin or Chairman Mao. They were both liberals on steroids.

The Catholic Church is not being forced to do anything. They could stay as a Church, have masses and not have to do a thing. The problem is that once they go into the marketplace, they have to follow the same rules as anyone else in the marketplace.

Incidentally, NYC is taxing formula to encourage to encourage breast feeding.

Throughout U.S. history, it has been much more likely for States and municipalities to abridge rights than the federal govt.

You apparently believe that, since women have the right to have sex, the federal government should force everyone - including the Catholic Church to pay the bills tor her choice.

So if conservatives ever return to power, I assume you wouldn't if they practiced similar authoritarianism. I have right to shoot guns, so therefore the federal government should force peace activists to pay for my bullets when I "enter the ammunition marketplace"? We all have a right to read books, therefore NOW should be forced to give away free copies of Phyllis Schlaffley's books as part of the "literary marketplace"? We all have right to enjoy art, therefore the federal government should force the NAACP to fund statues of Lester Maddox as part of the "artistic marketplace"?

Oh, so your problem is not that the Catholic Church has to pay for OCA's, but that there is a requirement that all insurance has to include OCA's. Not a religious objection at all.
