This is the defining issue of our time. This is a make or break moment for the middle class, and all those who are fighting to get into the middle class. At stake is whether this will be a country where working people can earn enough to raise a family, build a modest savings, own a home, and secure their retirement.

This is an except from an article I wrote on Examiner.com:
"These books and literature should be of interest of you, especially if you think you might ever have to appear before a judge..
In Minnesota we have Judges trying to take away our right to vote for Judges in contested elections.
The rational of these judges is that allegedly there is little or no corruption in Minnesota.They then go on to say that we must protect this allegedly near perfect system from the corrupting influence of campaign Contributions and Political parties.(focus on the comments, not the main article propaganda of this link)
But the Black Robed (redacted for decorum) Judges of Minnesota's entire premise that there is little or no corruption in Minnesota has been fraudulently manufactured.
For the past 5 years the Minnesota House and Senate Judiciary Committees have refused to hear evidence of corruption in the Minnesota Judiciary. As a symptom of the systemic corruption in Minnesota Government, Hundreds of Minnesota Citizens have been denied their first amendment right to petition the Government with our grievances without actual or threatened retaliation......"

Guess what Tiger is saying at the moment this picture was taken? The folks at SnuggieHumor.com have gotten a hold of the "first draft" version of Tiger Woods' prepared statement. A version that obviously got revised several times and much different then the version we heard.

Does MSNBC edit its transcripts to make its hosts look better and conservatives look worse? The network’s transcript of Monday’s edition of “The Ed Show” did just that. Host Ed Schultz had on Ron Christie, former deputy advisor to Dick Cheney, to discuss Obama’s ever-weakening Homeland Security policies. In the discussion, Ed made an embarrassing verbal blunder, and Ron ably defended himself — but the edited transcript posted on MSNBC’s website has elided key parts of their discussion.
Ed mocked “this idea that [Bush and Cheney] kept the country safe,” thundering, “We were hit, big time, on Cheney’s watch, not on Obama’s watch.” The Left has used this line, without effect, since at least the 2004 elections — as though al-Qaeda sprung from whole cloth on January 21, 2001, and accomplished its grandest plans in a mere nine months. Christie had his number — and Schultz’s inept response proved it:
CHRISTIE: Do you even want to go there with me, Ed?
SCHULTZ: Yeah, I wanna go down that road. Go ahead!
CHRISTIE: Let’s talk about the Clinton administration. Let’s talk about the Clinton Justice Department that viewed acts of terrorism – the first World Trade Center bombing, the bombings overseas of our embassies – as a law enforcement matter.
SCHULTZ: Uh, excuse me, on American soil—
(Cross Talk)
CHRISTIE: Let’s look at Jamie Gorelick, Ed. Let’s look at Jamie Gorelick, who refused —
SCHULTZ: …the people that [sic.] hit during the Clinton administration, they ended up getting prosecuted and those people that [sic.] hit in New York back in [it sounds as though he said '92, or slurred some amalgam of '93 and '92] — those folks are behind bars. The point is this—
First off, U.S. embassies are “sovereign U.S. territory.” Second, Ed Schultz’s retort proved Ron Christie right: the Clinton administration viewed terrorism as a matter for the courts, and not a high priority, at that. There was no military response, and al-Qaeda grew increasingly belligerent until 9/11. Words alone don’t do Ed’s idiocy justice. Watch the way Ed thoughtful pause before saying Clinton “prosecuted” the terrorists, as though it were a ripping rejoinder, and his leering, “gotcha” look upon noting the mass murderers were “behind bars.” You can verify my transcript and Ed’s body language at the 6:55 mark below, or in MSNBC’s video clip:

Obama Health Care Jabberwocky Transcript Released
'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wade;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!"
He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought --
So rested he by the Tumtum tree.
And stood awhile in thought.
And as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came wiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!
One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.
"And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!"
He chortled in his joy.
'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.Obama Health Care Jabberwocky Transcript Released

TO THE WORRIED PARENTS: here's an excerpt from the speech you fear.
Click to read entire thing.
"I know that for many of you, today is the first day of school. And for those of you in kindergarten, or starting middle or high school, it’s your first day in a new school, so it’s understandable if you’re a little nervous. I imagine there are some seniors out there who are feeling pretty good right now, with just one more year to go. And no matter what grade you’re in, some of you are probably wishing it were still summer, and you could’ve stayed in bed just a little longer this morning.
I know that feeling. When I was young, my family lived in Indonesia for a few years, and my mother didn’t have the money to send me where all the American kids went to school. So she decided to teach me extra lessons herself, Monday through Friday – at 4:30 in the morning.
Now I wasn’t too happy about getting up that early. A lot of times, I’d fall asleep right there at the kitchen table. But whenever I’d complain, my mother would just give me one of those looks and say, "This is no picnic for me either, buster."
So I know some of you are still adjusting to being back at school. But I’m here today because I have something important to discuss with you. I’m here because I want to talk with you about your education and what’s expected of all of you in this new school year.
Now I’ve given a lot of speeches about education. And I’ve talked a lot about responsibility.
I’ve talked about your teachers’ responsibility for inspiring you, and pushing you to learn.
I’ve talked about your parents’ responsibility for making sure you stay on track, and get your homework done, and don’t spend every waking hour in front of the TV or with that Xbox.
I’ve talked a lot about your government’s responsibility for setting high standards, supporting teachers and principals, and turning around schools that aren’t working where students aren’t getting the opportunities they deserve.
But at the end of the day, we can have the most dedicated teachers, the most supportive parents, and the best schools in the world – and none of it will matter unless all of you fulfill your responsibilities. Unless you show up to those schools; pay attention to those teachers; listen to your parents, grandparents and other adults; and put in the hard work it takes to succeed.
And that’s what I want to focus on today: the responsibility each of you has for your education. I want to start with the responsibility you have to yourself.
Every single one of you has something you’re good at. Every single one of you has something to offer. And you have a responsibility to yourself to discover what that is. That’s the opportunity an education can provide.
Maybe you could be a good writer – maybe even good enough to write a book or articles in a newspaper – but you might not know it until you write a paper for your English class. Maybe you could be an innovator or an inventor – maybe even good enough to come up with the next iPhone or a new medicine or vaccine – but you might not know it until you do a project for your science class. Maybe you could be a mayor or a Senator or a Supreme Court Justice, but you might not know that until you join student government or the debate team.
And no matter what you want to do with your life – I guarantee that you’ll need an education to do it. You want to be a doctor, or a teacher, or a police officer? You want to be a nurse or an architect, a lawyer or a member of our military? You’re going to need a good education for every single one of those careers. You can’t drop out of school and just drop into a good job. You’ve got to work for it and train for it and learn for it.
And this isn’t just important for your own life and your own future. What you make of your education will decide nothing less than the future of this country. What you’re learning in school today will determine whether we as a nation can meet our greatest challenges in the future."TO THE WORRIED PARENTS: here's an excerpt from the speech you fear.

In an interview on National Public Radio, former Secretary of State Lawrence Eagleburger states Sarah Palin is not ready to be president and he devoutly hopes she would never be tested. Eagleburger, a Republican, served under George H.W. Bush and is supporting McCain, though McCain may be wondering how strong that support is at the moment. McCain regularly cites Eagleburger as an important endorsement.
