Voter ID Solutions
And every time the votes for Franken came up short, they "found" more uncounted ballots in a car trunk and were allowed to use them. And every time the majority of the "found" votes were for Franken. Really????????????????? honest election results.

Stop the Blame and Start Cutting
I'm not a Clinton fan, but he did a good job of moving welfare to workfare. Unfortunately, over the years his efforts have been undone and we are back to "living off of the welfare system". I don't mind helping the truly disable and needy, but the just don't want to work "clueless".

Chicken Little and the Socialists
Sorry, I should have said, not written by me, just passing it on because I thought it fit the subject.

Chicken Little and the Socialists
I do not like this Uncle Sam,
I do not like his health care scam.
I do not like these dirty crooks,
or how they lie and cook the books.
I do not like when Congress steals,
I do not like their secret deals.
I do not like this speaker Nan,
I do not like this 'YES WE CAN'.
I do not like this spending spree,
I'm smart, I know that nothing's free,
I do not like your smug replies,
when I complain about your lies.
I do not like this kind of hope.
I do not like it. nope, nope, nope

Try Netflix. The service is great and very quick turn around time. They send DVD's and if you have a blueray player, you can download many movies and watch them on demand.
It's questionable if Block Buster will be around this time next year. Customer service is only part of their problems, but great CS can certainly help save a company.

Hearing on Chapel Plan Draws Crowd
If the original gift or land grant to the church had a restriction saying no additional building on the site, why is this even being discussed? The church should honor the gift restrictions. Can the village locate the original documents?

Unqualified for Court
I believe she's a left progressive and therefore don't want to see her on the court. It appears she modified a report to support her support her pro late term abortion stand when she was in the Clinton Whitehouse. I do realize that someone much more progressive than her could have been nominated and most likely will be the next time there is an opening on the court.
I'm all for another woman on the court, but 3 minority and liberal women all from New York is not a good balance for the court. Beyond that, it greatly bothers me that all the current justices spent most of their adult life, prior to becoming Supreme Court judges, in the I-95 corridor from Washington to Boston. Also with Kagen’s appointment, there will be no Protestants on the court.
We need some judges from the other parts of the US, such as the South and Mid West, who did not attend Ivey League Law schools. Regions where people and ideas are more moderate and main stream and in step with the majority of the American population.

Health Reform Burns Tanning Businesses
I agree tanning is bad for you, but can't help wondering, "is this a tax targeting Caucasians"? After all not many darker skin people go to tanning salons.
