I thought you didn't like the Union Workers?

The link works just fine on my PC.....

Speaking of which, I noticed there are thousands and thousands of $$ being spent from the stimulus money for laptops, notebooks and pc's in some place called Round Rock, TX.

Maybe you could go get you a new one?

They (States) were supposed to submit a list of shovel ready projects that would help create some employment in their States. The federal government didn't make up the lists, it was up to the States.

What did the idiots in your State submit? Have you ever looked into it?

Here is a link http://stimuluswatch.org/2.0/performance_places/state/TX

President Obama wanted to see the small business bill passed but the GOP wants to keep blocking it.

When are you going to figure out that the GOP does NOT want to see the economy turn around?

I really think you need to refudiate that comment.

The Fed gave the stimulus money to the States.

If they pissed it away and didn't create any jobs, it's their fault.

I love my new job.

I get 6 months vacation, twice a year!

And this here chair I am sitting in is in Cape Cod.

I am looking out across the ocean at Martha's Vineyard.

Life is Good!

Go Barack, Go!

Since when does Fox News give a Flying Fock about somebody's carbon footprint?

I've been to Martha's Vineyard a few times....
I must be one of the wealthy and well-connected American elite.

What if they wanted to construct a Catholic Church next to a childrens playground?

I have had attacks attempted from here too in the past.
They were caught by my anti-virus software and blocked.

Now it seems this site also has allowed these nasty little pop ups that get thru my pop up blocker.

Yup, bailed out Chrysler with $15 billion......bailed out Texas with $19 billion.

Chrysler was the better deal.

Sticking his nose into local politics? Since when is defending the Constitution considered local politics?

"I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

I'll say this too, if we didn't have our (USA) noses stuck into the politics of the middle east, I doubt we would be having this discussion.

We were never intended to be an empire. Think about it.

Yup, President Obama defends the Constitution and gets attacked by the right wing.

Go figure.

I love all these comments from people who don't live in Arizona....I DO live here...and am a native.

Just to clear up a couple points, Jan Brewer is not seeking re-election....she was never elected. Brewer previously served as Secretary of State of Arizona until then-Governor Janet Napolitano resigned after being selected as Secretary of Homeland Security in January 2009. Brewer became Governor of Arizona as part of the line of succession, as determined by the Arizona constitution.

SB 1070 was sponsored by Arizona State Senator Russell Pearce. He was the one pushing the legislation that was signed into law by Governor Brewer.

Sheriff Joe Arpaio will not run for Governor. He's 78 years old now and is the most popular Sheriff this state has ever seen. He enjoys the position he currently has and as far as I understand, he has no intentions of doing anything else.

Now, here is the thing that really gets me about securing the southern Arizona Border. Our southern border is about 360 miles long. There are currently about 3,600 Border Patrol Agents patrolling our Arizona border with Mexico. That comes to about 10 Agents per mile. Why the hell can't they secure it!

If I was in charge, I would build 360 Border Patrol Staions....one every mile along the entire border. If they cost $1 million a piece, that's cheap. Staff each outpost with 10 Agents that we currently have on payroll. Now if these outposts are a mile apart, they should be able to detect any movement between each other...maybe deploy lasers and non-lethal weaponry to deter anyone who attempts to cross.

Could solve this whole damned issue with a measley $360 million appropriation for construction. And think of the jobs this could create?

Just my idea....

You know what, everybody beetches about the Big Banks and the TARP and bailouts and all this kind of crap.....Then the go and put THEIR MONEY in these institutions.

Whenever I hear someone b!tch about the banks, the first qustion I ask them is "Who do you bank with?"

I bank with a local Credit Union.

People need to get smart.

From what I heard, there is a plan coming that will allow Fannie to directly modify your mortgage and lower the principle if you are upside down in your loan.

This will directly benefit many homeowners who are struggling.

Plan B would be to allow those people who are upside down with a high interest loan, to allow them to refinance directly with Fannie to a much lower interest rate.

Many people can't get a refi to the current low rates because they are upside down in their mortgage.

Interest rates are lower right now than they have been in 50 years.

More stupid crap....I aint even gonna bother to read this BS.

You really think China is going to attack us?

Heck, they own us!

Christina who??
