Detroit Councilwoman's Actual Rant: We Voted for You, Obama, Now Give Us Some of That Gov't 'Bacon'
Speaking before the Detroit City Council on Tuesday, Councilwoman JoAnn Watson said President Barack Obama owes the ailing city a government bailout because its residents supported him in the 2012 presidential election.
"Our people in an overwhelming way supported the re-election of this president and there ought to be a quid pro quo and you ought to exercise leadership on that," said Watson, according to FOX 2 Detroit. "Of course, not just that, but why not?"
"After the election of Jimmy Carter, the honorable Coleman Alexander Young [Detroit's former mayor of 20 years and former vice chairman of the Democratic National Committee], he went to Washington, D.C. and came home with some bacon," she added. "That's what you do."
As of this writing, the White House has announced no plans to bailout the crumbling Motor City.
But, you know, this video got us thinking: Following the 2012 presidential election, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney and talk radio host Rush Limbaugh were savaged by top GOP leaders for saying President Barack Obama won because he promised to give people "free" stuff.
Romney accused the president of promising "gifts" to minorities, young voters, and women, while Limbaugh dubbed the president "Baracka Claus" (a play on "Santa Claus").
"In a nation of children," said Limbaugh, "Santa Claus wins."
"It's a proven political strategy, which is give a bunch of money to a group and, guess what, they'll vote for you," said Romney.
Romney continued:
What the president did is he gave them two things. One, he gave them a big gift on immigration with the DREAM Act amnesty program, which was obviously very, very popular with Hispanic voters, and then number two was Obamacare … For a home earning — let's say $30,000 a year — free health care, which is worth about $10,000 a year, I mean it's massive, it's huge. So this — he did two very popular things for the Hispanic community.
Exit Question: Given the "tit-for-tat" sentiments expressed by the Detroit Councilwoman, how far off do you think Limbaugh and Gov. Romney are? That is, is it really so outrageous to say that some people voted for President Obama because they were hoping he'd give them "free" stuff?

Posted on December 5, 2012 at 9:55amBut Chicago radicals' divisive hate speech is sure effective in stirring up all of this entitlement anger ! Yeah, go take it from " the rich" – all of those people who " don't pay their fair share." Why ? Because their hero, Obama, told them so ….nice, huh ?

Obozo drones, Encinom et al It aint getting any better under Obozo! JUST WORSE! It's Obozo's America and Detriot-a-stan is like an ugly, dirty, low life Greece. In other words, Greece is a million times more desirable than Detroit-a-stan.

Posted on December 5, 2012 at 10:17amI was standing behind a couple in line at Walgreens last night. They were wearing the best clothes that todays' "Gangsta" fashions dictate; The fancy seakers and tatoos and the man had gold earings and that baseball cap that cost the big bucks. I can't afford to dress like that (of course I wouldn't WANT too either but…) so when they pull out the EBT card. A real suckie moment for society. Sad to think we give more to the poor than we can afford to, and then they slap us in the face. This is another intentiional plan to bring down the USA. To turn us into the USSA. The United Socialist Sates of Amerika.
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 10:17amGenius, affirmative action isn't designed to "work." This is yet another distraction to make taxpayers angry at irrelevant parasites who account for less than 1/7. Of the national debt compared to the military-banker empire. Why people continually cal for this is inexcusable.
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 10:25amWhat was implied by the Obama campaign was…We're gonna stick it to the rich and this will benefit YOU…the poor. Because all that money that the rich have been hoarding while lording it over you, will now be fairly dispersed to those that need it.
So voting for Obama is a 2fer, not only do you get to be entertained by seeing rich fat cats brought low, you get to take their money.So now we are seeing the first stirrings of what will become a storm by Summer. As large cities go Bankrupt left and right, and the entire state of California goes bankrupt the unintelligent Obama voters are gonna ask…"Where's my money?"

Posted on December 5, 2012 at 10:35am@Zman173rd, if it makes you feel any better, those gold earrings, shoes, clothes and hat were probably stolen. We paid for them through higher prices at the store.

Posted on December 5, 2012 at 10:53amIf they get my money, I should be able to vote in their elections! Taxation without representation!
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 10:58amOur people. She said Our people. To what is she alluding? Our people Detroit or Our people a race, or Our people Americans? Rodin thinks…….Is that the Jimmy Carter from the 70′s who was hated so much he was defeated by a landslide? More thinking…..In 30 odd years Detroit hasn't gained and Our people haven't figured it out yet.? Rodin concludes…maybe it isn't about the bacon, maybe its about fish and a fishing pole. Maybe its about buying a pig in a poke. Maybe its about Our people can be bought for a pittance?
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 11:03amIn other words, they want some more of that free money to steal themselves. Me thinks they are looking to save their own skin.
Look at them, a pitiful group that couldn't manage a popsicle stand. They made their own bed, now lie in it. Pull the plug on the motor city. Time for a social experiment, give us an example of what we have to look forward to when Obama collapses the entire US.
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 11:13amIs that a lot like "you owes me bro", now pays me.
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 11:14amBut the Obama zombies want to get paid for not working.
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 11:26am"Our people"? Who is the racist here?
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 11:28amRANGER1965….you nailed it. Obama was constantly giving the "wink…you'll get the rich guy's money" throughout his perpetual campaign..heck he's still campaigning…and now his "winkees" are asking for the payback.
Look Detroit is a wasteland and I don't expect any better from it's elected officials but the utter shamelessness of it all is vulgar in the extreme. Here's an elected official from Detroit (ssshhhh..don't mention her color) demanding "quid pro quo"..her words….for making sure her constituents voted overwhelmingly for Obama. She doesn't give a damn about Federal fiscal problems…she just wants to collect on the favor. Just up the tax on the rich guy if you have to but pay up. -

Posted on December 5, 2012 at 11:46amWhy am I not surprised by this article? Oh wait, that is what you get for voting for Obozo who makes all sorts of promises. Yet, when the going gets tough, suddenly you find yourself stranded and Obozo is nowhere to be found.
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 11:49amYou may just get porked.
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 11:52amMeanwhile our country slips away……
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 12:05pmZATZAOWE… I believe your very wrong, case in point: Affirmative action gets the Democratic vote, Socialism gets the Democratic vote and as for Obama zombies they don't have to work so that gets the Democratic vote. Gov. Romney and R. Limbaugh hit it square out of the park with OBAMASANTACLAUSE…
Whats more is that anything the Republicans say or do to deter that makes them the grinch. Do you think Obama isn't playing that to the hilt right now…. with the Physical Cliff debacle, remember the Zombies, brainwashed youth and a large portion of the near-do-wells and mono producers still believe that the whole mess was Busch's fault.
They have no idea that it was the Democratic controlled Congress and Senate that drove us over the cliff before we ever even heard of some 3rd rate Senator Barak Hussein Obama. Also notice the major players B. Fwank and C. Dodd and the creeps at Freddy and Fanny who absconded with literally Millions of tax payer dollars for their part in the collapse.
Only in America could this kind of scam be pulled off with Bush being the fall guy. Once again history has been proven… tell a lie long enough and strong enough and the masses will believe it…
Know who proved that "Adolf Hitler"
Suck it up we are in very deep sewage with the fools parade of most of our elected officials. I am beginning to believe that most haven't got the common sense to come in out of the rain. -
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 12:15pmWhen you affirmatively move one person ahead of another, in order to fill a skin color quota, you all lose. She's part of two, of the major moocher classes of modern America. She's black and a woman. A double moocher.
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 12:21pmSoul searching and back to the drawing board required here: what is "it" exactly that does not work?
Years of affirmative action have placed incalculable number of recipients in position of power in our government. We have a socialist president just elected for a second term. And BHO zombies run around in city councils and many other places of power in our society. Moreover, this is being condoned by the news media: written, TV, and social networks (did you check latest popular posts in Google+ and Linkedin)?
Conservatives have to realize this: the adversary is mighty, power hungry, has unlimited resource, and will use all means necessary to achieve total dominance and complete annihilation of the conservative movement.

Posted on December 5, 2012 at 12:25pmMore proof that the vast majority of people should not be allowed to vote. They have no stake in this country and all they want are freebies to themselves. Yes, the "chosen people" controlled Marxist Media did paint Romney as a bad guy for suggesting that Obama won by giving away stuff like Obama phones, but now the truth comes out.

Posted on December 5, 2012 at 2:02pmI think it is critical the implement a city tax immediately.
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 2:15pmThe election was bought and paid for across the board.
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 2:20pmIn 3 little statements, you just earned "Comment of the Day". Gratz!! Now, let me ask you and every poster on here: How long before these "takers" realize they've been taken? And, after they realize it, get their marijuana, crack, and Kool-Aid on, storm the White House, and end Obama's reign?
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 2:31pmThere is only one way to stop the pork. Stop having your Federal Income Tax taken out by your employer. This one act alone done by a United Group would end the pork session.
Imagine if everyone waited till December 31st, 2013 to pay their Federal Income Tax. Think about it. Glenn do a show on it. Only real change will come from this act. Take back America and prove we are worthy to those who have given their lives for the Freedoms we enjoy today. Lets not waste what so many have sacrificed.
"If ever time should come, when vain and aspiring men shall possess the highest seats in Government, our country will stand in need of its experienced patriots to prevent its ruin."
Samuel Adams"Now more than ever before, the people are responsible for the character of their Congress. If that body be ignorant, reckless and corrupt, it is because the people tolerate ignorance, recklessness and corruption. If it be intelligent, brave and pure, it is because the people demand these high qualities to represent them in the national legislature…. If the next centennial does not find us a great nation … it will be because those who represent the enterprise, the culture, and the morality of the nation do not aid in controlling the political forces."

Posted on December 5, 2012 at 2:47pmJoAnn Watson, Michelle Obama is shipping you a copy of P90X for Christmas. No bacon for you!
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 2:57pmNot only has she eaten to much bacon but she has been sitting on her fat **** to long. Plus with the tied back **** her so called brain is strangled. This is the nanny state which we now have in this country. This is what the illiterate and ignorant among us voted for. Someday we will have to confront the 1000 lb elephant in the room and it will not be pretty, it will be New Orleans in capital letters.
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 3:24pmWhat do you do after you tax the rich And the Money only last 8.5 days?
And every one that voted for you will not except any reduction in free gifts.(Or riot)
You do what any good socialist would do.
Nationalize all the large Corporation that are profitable. Like Russia 1917.
Our dear Leader Is well on the way to a bloodless revolution in the USA -
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 3:57pmIt seems the people wanting all the free stuff are also ones that didn't pay their fair share. They want stuff from people who have paid their fair share.
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 4:13pmIronically, all the people who run unions are actually part of the rich. A lot of people don't know that. It's kind of funny whenever they say they want more money, that in fact, that money come from the very people that they trash. That's just how unions, socialism, and all that stuff works out. They trash the system that they benefit from. Then, they claim that they're saving the world and just trying to educate the kids. It's just a line. If you look into Rules for Radicals, or the Communist Manifesto it's all right there.
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 4:16pmRomney was right Obama did by the election, the 47% that Romney spoke about.
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 4:20pmRome was destroyed by the so called "Mob's of Rome" Politicians like the anointed one created a nanny state and when there was no longer a way to pay for all of the Free Stuff they (Liberal Progressives) turned on there former benefactors and brought down Rome. The similarities of what is happening in the US is strikingly similar. Which in my opinion takes us back to the person that Jamie Fox refers to as our "Lord and Savior" Comrade Obama. This was all laid out by Saul Alinsky and taught by Ob ama in college.
"Obama learned his lesson well. I am proud to see that my father's model for organizing is being applied successfully beyond local community organizing to affect the Democratic campaign in 2008. It is a fine tribute to Saul Alinsky as we approach his 100th birthday." –Letter from L. DAVID ALINSKY, son of Neo-Marxist Saul Alinsky.
"A Marxist begins with his prime truth that all evils are caused by the exploitation of the proletariat by the capitalists. From this he logically proceeds to the revolution to end capitalism, then into the third stage of reorganization into a new social order of the dictatorship of the proletariat, and finally the last stage — the political paradise of communism." p.10
Apparently Obama's Socialist/Marxist/Communist mentors did indeed teach him well.
America is indeed on a downward spiral. I have grave doubts that we will be able to recover. Combine this with a radical press/media and…..

Posted on December 5, 2012 at 5:29pmIts called greed, same as any greedy corp. or individual, and of course by saying "our people" she means black. this woman and people who think like her are greedy, too hill with the nation, it is all about them, gimmy, gimmy, " i want my peace of pie" the money comes from greedy, old, white , folks who dont need it anyway, this is why we are where we are today, and folks who think like this are a drag on our economy, and a curse too this nation.

Posted on December 5, 2012 at 6:35pmI have said so many times blacks do not care about anything or the country all they care about is the black community you will never hear a black person say what did you do for my country its always what did you do for my people or the black community

Posted on December 5, 2012 at 7:43pmGet your Obama phone, get your Obama fare, get your Obama bailout………..
So, let me understand…..You are owed a federal government bailout because your city is predominately black and because you voted for Obama. This, in my opinion, DISQUALIFIES Obama as my president.
You know, my ancestors came over AFTER the war between the states, so as far as I can tell…..I owe no reparations. We don't owe it to the indians, the blacks, or anyone…….Someone, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, give us back our meritocracy, where smart people who worked hard were not told, "You didn't build that."
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 8:40pmThis is just too rich. This Republican Warned you Democrats, that you were Backing a True Jackass & that the First thing, If he got Reelected, would to Kick & Stomp your BRAYING asses into the ground. Guess I was Right After all.!!
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 9:44pmThere should be a picture of the city of Detroit in this article… a once very beautiful and productive city. that today it sits on the dunghill of Liberalism and ignorance! We know the ones she refers to as "Our People!" Wherever did she get the idea that votes are bought? This is the new America! Not a very pretty thought!

Posted on December 5, 2012 at 10:41pmWhy don't the negroes in Detroit fix their own problems and leave the rest of the Americans alone ? Why don't they just simply pay the taxes for the programs that their elected officials approved ? Raise the taxes for ALL folks living in Detroit until they can fix their fiscal problems. If they are on US welfare schemes or EBTs, then just take their money from their welfare checks and their EBTs and push them out of federally paid for public housing projects until the people of Detroit pay for ALL of their spending requests. Just raise the taxes of folks in Detroit, until and unless, they can meet their fiscal needs without any assistance from anyone else. After all, this is what they voted for. And oh yes, if they need to cancel govt employee pensions, then just knock yourself out. This is the primary source of your problems. Go bankrupt and then cancel all govt employee pensions. Issue solved pretty quick. Pass out some seeds for gardens, and a few chickens, and maybe a cow or two. Let them live like their great parents who never, ever received anything from the US govt in the past. And guess what ? They will be much better off. And their children may begin to appreciate the few things that they deserve , that their families earned through honest labor. Not govt confiscation against other middle class american families who are more like them than the so called rich people.

Yes, JoAnn voting has consequences. -
Posted on December 6, 2012 at 12:49pmYeah! I caught that "our people" she said. This idiot woman should get off her high horse and start doing things to help that Detroit area and stop waiting for the 'Govmint' to come do it for her. Many other towns have healed themselves by working at it.

Posted on December 5, 2012 at 10:42amThis film clip should be played dozens of time a year from now until the next election. Even if you are a Democrat constituency will you get as much as the next constituency? Whether you do or don't will it be enough? Will it be more or less than you could have made for yourself.
People who are not part of the Democrat party or are not high in the pecking order of Democrat politics will get less than those on top. They will be dispirited. The will produce less because increasing amounts of what they make will be "legally" stolen. So there will be less to tax, because there be less overall.
Is this the world you want to live in? Instead of fighting with swords & clubs you fight with ballots? Whoever wins divvies up the spoils.Ballots might be less bloody but it is violence none the less to look at elections as something to win in order to loot.
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 1:15pmWALK! Unfortunately, you could show that clip to her constituency every day of the year, and 95% of the idiots would stlill vote to put her back in office!

Michelle Bachman claimed that slavery wasn't so bad because at least it kept black families together and their kids were raised in two-parent homes. A white Republican finding the positive in slavery–why am I not surprised?

Republican Rep. Doug Lamborn called Obama a tar baby. Ann Coulter: "Our blacks are better than their blacks". Rush "the Hutt" Limbaugh called Michelle Obama "uppity". Do we want to get into a war of stupid quotes? You know I'll drop Dubya on your behind.

Posted on December 6, 2012 at 1:12am@walk… You do realize Jesse Jackson jr got re-elected even when it was clear he was crooked an adulterer a liar & stealing campaign contributions to buy his girlfriend's Rolex & home improvements. He claimed all that Illinois senate bribery stuff was un-proven but everybody knew it was true & they re-elected him even when he hadn't worked for them in months!!!
So seriously do you think those people are voting on principles at all? -

There is a new book out about "The Royals". And how much do people in England, they might like The Royal Family, I guess, but they don't like paying for The Royal Family. Right? That's the big thing. They are so very expensive. What do we get out of The Royal Family? Well, allot people argue "tourism". Well, how much money are you going to spend on tourism? So they're for tourists, right? How much do they spend? How much is tourism worth? How much does the tax-payer have to go in for these greedy Royals so they can have their yachts? Because, remember, that's how fly in giant airplanes and they vacation in giant yachts. They have palaces everywhere. How much does it take to maintain these "fat cats"? Here it is. Fifty-seven-point-eight million dollars. Every year they have to spend 57.8 million dollars for the "First Family" of Great Britain. To make sure that everything's maintained and everything is taken care of and there's security and everything else. Fifty-seven-point-eight million dollars. And the people in England are upset about it.
How much did we pay "our royal family"? How much did it take to maintain our royal family, the Obamas, just last year?
Posted on December 6, 2012 at 4:26amPART 2
Now this is really interesting, especially as we come up for ANOTHER vacation for the Obamas. This one is going to cost us 4 million dollars. This vacation in Hawaii for Christmas is going to cost YOU 4 million dollars. How much did we spend last year (remember The Royal Family cost 57.8 million dollars [last year])?
Would you be stunned if I told you 50 million dollars?
Would you be bowled over if it was 100 million dollars?
How much did we spend? The total last year [drum roll] …
No, not 75.
No, no, not 100 million dollars.
No, it's not even close to 250 million dollars.
300 million dollars? No, it's not that.
500 million, half a billion dollars to take care of the Obamas when The Royal Family end up with 58 million? No, we're spending much more than half a billion dollars.
750? No we're not. It's more than 750 million dollars. Again, The Royal Family, The Royal FAMILY, is 57.8 million dollars. How much do we spend for the family of 4 in Washington DC?
No, it's more than a billion dollars.It is … 1.4 … billion … dollars.
Last year, for the Obamas, 1.4 BILLION DOLLARS.

Posted on December 5, 2012 at 10:58amFreebaggers are never satisfied. The more they get the more they want. Now they want to get paid for the way they vote. Be patient Freebaggers you will get some handout in 2014 when your vote will be needed again to vote more liberals into Congress.

Since Black Liberation Theology is tied hand to mouth with the Nation of Islam, I would think the People of Detroit would not have anything to do with "Bacon"? -
Posted on December 6, 2012 at 1:21amYou want bacon? Yeah off to Hawaii for 3 weeks while the nation is about to go off a fiscal cliff. Too bad for America. You should go to Hawaii it's a lovely place. Gonna spend lots of time there from now on. No work planned. You all work among yourselves & keep those taxpayer dollars coming.
I think I'm a fan of not sending federal withholding from my paycheck to govt until dec 2013. Starve the pig!

Posted on December 5, 2012 at 10:54amThe story wasn't about human beings. It was about Detroit. Big difference.
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 11:53amDetroit is a black liberal and black separatists utopia. Now they want other races money to bail them out .If they get any money it should be from registered black democrats ONLY!
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 1:23pmThe only way they're going to get the bacon is if the house of representatives approves the funding….let's see where they truly fall on this.
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 9:46amHey Joann, why don't you go hit up your last mayor, the Kwamster, you know the one who has already done time in jail, is currently on trial in Federal Court and who owes the city $1,000,000. Why don't you go ask his wife in Texas how they are able to afford such digs when they have no income and never stole one dime from your precious city. If you rounded up the dirty libs that have brought Detroit to its ankles and found all the money they stole, you could rebuild the State.
I live 12 miles from D'Toilet and they want to fix nothing down there, except their salaries and pensions. They want the State to bail them out with no strings attached. Yep, whitey in the suburbs can pay for our crimes! Reparations anyway possible.

Posted on December 5, 2012 at 11:17amThere is an alternative universe in Detroit and I visited it this summer. There is Detroit with abandoned businesses and homes, street people, potholed unrepaired roads and drugs on every corner. The alternative universe is Grosse Pointe Farms. Grosse Pointe Farms has paved roads, large well tended homes, well paved streets and a police force that has at least 2 patrol cars at the street intersection between Detroit and Grosse Pointe Farms.
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 4:59pmTheres little doubt she loves bacon….look at the size of that heifer. Detroit deserves exactly what it currently is stuck in…..how come she is not railing and ranting to John Conyers and Sandy Levin and that half glasses wearing libt–ard Carl Levin? Detroiters keep voting for the same local Democrats and the city can't even keep a mayor out of jail….in fact Conyers wife Monica has been mayor AND in jail.
Detroit……the USA owes you nothing from our pockets….you don't deserve a dime of taxpayer money because you are way too clueless to figure out what got you there in the first place.Bacon my a$$……

Posted on December 5, 2012 at 9:42amThis is a city that the Governor of MI refused to say he would NOT disband, eliminate. Mainly because of decades of Democrat and Marxist operation. That city is a sewer, a malignant cancer slowly eating itself. The only way they can now survive is by being a parasitic bacteria and sucking life from those around them and from taxpayers that don't live there. (My apologies to Paperboy, but ya need to pick yourself up by your hindquarters and move yourself someplace free of that Detroit disease before it eats you as well)

Posted on December 5, 2012 at 9:42amYour grandparents moved from Georgia and Alabama to Detroit because they couldn't find jobs in the south but they could in Detroit. You should get off your fat arse and move to where the work is. There is no reason why I should pay to keep a city alive that has no economic reason for being. But as most of the population is on welfare there are not enough taxes being collected to support the government needed for the number of people living there.
It is this sort of thing that is going to force the revolution.

Posted on December 5, 2012 at 9:54amI've been saying all along that if I was in my 20′s, 30′s or 40′s, I'd be moving as fast as I could to the booming oil fields of the Dakotas. I tried very hard to convince my daughter and family to move there where they would have better economic advantages and a huge sense of community. For some reason, they insist on trying to make a living in Boston, MA (one of the most expensive places to live). Some people just won't leave what's familiar and seek opportunity elsewhere. You've got to move to where the jobs are people!!!
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 3:31pmWell, you could starve her out of Detroit by hiding her EBT card in her work boots.
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 9:42amRomney and Rush are right on target.
I'm just so sick of the utter stupidity in this country. These morons couldn't run a lemonade stand and they are handling the finances of our cities and the entire country! They don't have a clue that our country is flat BROKE and it's not the job of the Federal gov. to provide bailouts! These Progressives spend too damn much money and they think it is OWED to them! This is why we had the housing crisis. They bought houses and things that they couldn't afford. Same with the cities and the entire country. It's time for some tough-love. We cannot be enablers anymore. We can not keep bailing people out and picking up the pieces. The only way they will learn is if they hit rock bottom and pick themselves up. The dummies need to learn that we simply do not have the money to bail their arses out!

They can dig their own way out of the sewer! This is going to happen all over the country with this GIMMEE generation. Just close it down and turn out the lights!

Posted on December 5, 2012 at 9:41amThe sad thing is that, absolutely no one will be surprised by this. This is how obama supporters think. This Watson lunatic is no different from obama's 'obamaphone' woman, or any of the millions and millions of freeloaders who spend all of their time demanding a handout from American taxpayers. They are uneducated, unintelligent, lazy, lacking in any sense of personal responsibility or pride, and they, above all else, hate America to their very core. This is what obama has done to OUR country.

Posted on December 5, 2012 at 9:53amI take exception with the conclusion of your statement, "This is what obama has done to OUR country."
This woman and her ilk are the result of Progressive control of our education system since Wilson. Obama is merely reaping the rewards. Unfortunately, the rewards are our freedom and opportunity.

We are seeing the culmination of the Progressive movement, accelerated full speed ahead under Obama, to ensure the collapse of the nation across the board into a communist state. I hope Chicago gets the fiscal and proverbial burn from Obama and that their eyes are opened.
Posted on December 5, 2012 at 9:41amAnd this is why American is going down the tubes. All these people say are "gimmie,gimmie, gimmie". No personal responsibility.

Posted on December 5, 2012 at 9:37amEven more proof out of their own mouths that they voted for freebies and handouts.

Mark Seaman
Chef Mark Seaman
Certified Master Sugar Artist / Chef Instructor
April 1, 2013
"An exquisitely-decorated cake is created through the mastery of a set of essential skills combined in a unique way by the decorator. This ability to create beauty justifies the long hours of ongoing training necessary to express and evolve one'sown creativity. I like to encourage students to master a basic skill, and then show me something I've never seen done with it."
Mark Seaman first received inspiration to pursue pastry from his grandfather who owned and operated a bakery in Sharon, Pennsylvania for forty years. Seaman studied baking and pastry arts in Chicago where he earned his degree. He undertook additional intensive training with legendary cake, sugar, and chocolate artists such as Nicholas Lodge, Colette Peters, and Rose Viacava de Ortega. Having lived and studied abroad in Europe, Seaman is fluent in French and also speaks conversational Russian. Seaman teaches in The French Pastry School's L'Art du Gâteau – The Professional Cake Decorating and Baking Program - where he instructs celebration cake design and conducts celebration cake business lectures.
Seaman has earned many awards and accolades in his career including being honored by the Condé Nast Bridal Group as a leading Chicago cake stylist and regional wedding expert at the 2004 Wedding Cake March on the Magnificent Mile. Seaman's celebration cake business, Marked for Dessert, was named "The Knot 2007 Best of Weddings Pick," the highest ranking for wedding cakes in the Midwest by The Knot magazine. In 2003 and 2005, Seaman took the Bronze and Silver medals, respectively from the National Wedding Cake Competition. In 2007, he won First Place Honors at the Grand National Wedding Cake Competition in 2007 at the Oklahoma Sugar Arts Festival in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
Seaman's nationally recognized style and cake creations have been featured on The Food Network, HGTV, the Travel Channel, ABC 7 Chicago, and TLC. In addition to participating in competitions throughout his career, Seaman has judged a number of cake competitions, and was the proprietor of Marked for Dessert, a wedding cake boutique in Libertyville, Illinois for many years. Seaman opened a new sugar art and cake studio in Chicago in the Ravenswood neighborhood where he continues to create his cake masterpieces, conduct research, and hold workshops. Chef Seaman also teaches courses at Knightsbridge PME in London, Alliance Française in Chicago, and the International Sugar Art Collection in Atlanta, Georgia.
In 2011, Seaman earned the title of Certified Master Sugar Artist (C.M.S.A.) at the Annual Convention of International Cake Exploration Societé (ICES) in Charlotte, North Carolina. In 2013, Dessert Professional named Seaman one of the Top Ten Cake Artists of North America.

My personal philosophy on this (and I'm well aware that a majority won't agree with me) if that if you're going to truly and genuinely be friends with an ex, you have to be prepared for everything that comes with it. That means, at some point, you're going to have to be "down" with meeting his/her significant other.
And while there is no strict time line of when these things come about, but if you're going to be friends, they should at least be blips on the radar.
Not too long ago, when my little brother was visiting, Lynn asked if we wanted to go out with her and her friends.
She doesn't live close. And if we're going out on the town and drinking, I'd need a place to
The days of me pressing my nose up against the window pane, waiting for Lynn to come running back to me are long gone. But I had to take a moment to really ask myself: what's the worst that could happen in this scenario?
- First time meeting the ex's new boyf
- Drinking a lot of booze
- Forced to stay the night at the ex's place
But who knows how one is going to react if there is booze flowing. And to sit there across the bar and see your ex be all coupley (sitting on laps, hand holding, shit like that) while I'm sipping a low ball trying to plaster a smile on my face doesn't seem appealing. Furthermore, I don't want to ask them to alter their behavior just because of my presence, but at the same time... who wants to subject themselves to that?
This goes with the sleeping scenario as well. I imagine myself drunk as fuck, squirming to get comfortable on the living room couch with my legs hanging over the side in a hilarious cartoony fashion in one of those worthless guest blankets far too small for even my body. And then knowing that upstairs, only a few feet away from my head, my ex is drunk jamming down.
fdifdofdbncjsabc fbe
Point is, they SHOULD be able to do this if they wanted to, I just wouldn't feel right if they changed their normal routine because "it'd be weird if So@24 is here...". I wouldn't feel right asking that, but at the same time... I'd be lying if I said I was eager to experience my vivid scenarios.
See what I mean?
I'll be ready to party and have drinks with Lynn. There's no doubt I'll shake the hand of Lynn's boyfriend and buy him a pint. Hell, we might even karaoke a song together. I'm thinking we could do Ray Steven's "Mississippi Squirrel Revival"
But when do you know you're really ready to face all that?

Engineering Technology
Thinking about the discipline
Engineering Technology (EGT) is the study and application of concepts from mathematics and natural sciences used in the implementation and extension of existing or emerging technologies. NKU offers programs leading to an ABET accredited Bachelor of Science degree in the fields of Electronics Engineering Technology (EET) and Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering Technology (MMET).
These programs provide the knowledge and practical skills required to gain professional employment in electronics, mechanical systems, and manufacturing industries. The Engineering Technology programs are supported by local industry, who provide most of our students with Co-op opportunities at the start of their second year. These typically lead to an offer of full-time employment. EGT graduates are hired as product design engineers, manufacturing process engineers, quality engineers, sales engineers, etc. with a near 95% job placement.

Best Uses
I bought the Warrants to use as an all around winter glove. I have skied, hiked, and back country camped in them and they have always done a great job and kept my hands dry. Without liners my hands stayed warm down till about 15- 20 degrees. Pretty good for the amount of insulation I would say. I would buy them again

Work like a charm.
By The O
from Fairbanks, AK
I've used this gloves in temps down to 8 degrees F and they work great and I have had to take them off a few times because my hands were too warm. While the outer shell was soaked and frozen my hands still remained warm and dry. Used the gloves for ice climbing and I had great dexterity could use the smallest of carabiners on my rack with no problems. Had no problems setting up anchors and placing ice screws.

Environmental responsibility means constantly re-examining every aspect of our business and use of materials to reduce our environmental footprint.
"The Nimlok Way" is based on modular, reconfigurable exhibits and solutions that are engineered to be used again and again. Clients continuously reconfigure their Nimlok properties year after year to meet their growing needs.
Nimlok is focused on creating trade show exhibits that maximize recycled content. On average, 95% of the materials in our designs, based on the total exhibit weight, can be recycled. Our designs specifically include components that are produced using easily and commonly recycled materials including aluminum and cardboard.
We also initiated a trade show exhibit recycling program, designed to keep old exhibits out of landfills. At the end of an exhibit's life, our clients are invited to return it to Nimlok to be sorted and recycled at no additional cost.
Nimlok constantly invests in new processes that reduce the harmful elements traditionally used in the exhibit manufacturing process. For example, we were the first company in our industry to eliminate airborne solvent based adhesive particles with a hot melt process. Our graphics production facility has eliminated the use of solvent based printing processes commonly used in this arena by investing in the latest aqueous based dye sublimation printing process methods.
For the last 5 years, Nimlok has practiced waste reduction by recycling all manufacturing and packing cardboard and aluminum. By sorting cardboard, Nimlok has reduced its volume of waste destined for the landfill by over 15 tons.
To be truly conscientious and committed, we look beyond our own walls to our partners – vendors and service providers – to share the responsibility of operating in environmentally responsible ways. We rate and select our vendors on their environmental policies and use these ratings during vendor selection.
We are a proud distributor of Nimlok exhibit and display products. Contact us today to learn how you can reduce your exhibiting carbon footprint.

Chris Galen is the Senior Vice President of Communications for the National Milk Producers Federation .
Fellow AgWeb blogger Steve Cornett did a effective, if not accurate, job of further spreading rumors the other day that the dairy "lobby" has been fishing for federal stimulus dollars to pay for some sort of government buyout. To wit:
"You'd expect cattlemen of all stripes would get up in arms about a program that uses their taxes to subsidize dairy farmers to dump their beef into their already wrecked beef market."
In fact, he only was repeating the party line of NCBA, which last week sent a call to action to beef producers, at least those presumably not producing dairy beef, asking them to tell their Senators not to provide any assistance to dairy farmers in the $800 billion stimulus bill now being finalized in Congress.
I must say I am rather surprised that, with the thousands of interest groups with a stake in the economic bailout, wild stories have resulted in this type of high-level media coverage on such a minor issue, given the gravity and heft of the stimulus package. If you can't access this insightful story in today's Wall St. Journal, here's the relevant section of it:
"The magnitude of the spending bill, and its urgency, drew a swarm of lobbyists seeking money and tax breaks. The concrete and asphalt industries battled over how the government should spend billions proposed for road and bridge repairs, while dairy and beef cattle producers butted heads over talk that the government might buy up dairy cattle for slaughter to drive up depressed milk prices. Unions backed infrastructure spending. States sought budget bailouts.
"When you've got 800-plus billion dollars to spend, you'll have an equal number of opinions on how it should be spent," said Chris Galen, spokesman for the National Milk Producers Federation, the dairy industry's main lobbying group."
We at NMPF have been trying recently to disabuse the media (like this DC-based publication), as well as panicky ranchers, that there is no buyout, never has been, and we are not seeking one. There IS, and has been since 2003, our private Cooperatives Working Together program, which is farmer-funded and farmer-driven. And it will likely continue its herd reductions in 2009 – in fact, we're still removing cows now from the national herd with CWT's sixth herd retirement since the summer of `03.
Chasing ghosts, or wild geese, or dairy buyouts, may be a productive use of someone's time. At some point, however, you have to answer where the beef is.
It ain't here in this story.
One thing I can tell you for sure: if something isn't done to improve the overall economy, let alone help dairy farmers specifically, this financial crisis will result in plenty of cattle herds being liquidated as dairy farmers go under. Strengthening the fiscal health of dairy producers is actually in the beef industry's best interests, if their rhetoric about being sensitive to a decline in beef prices, due to fire-sale liquidations of dairy herds, is factual.
You may have already seen a widely-circulated survey listing the best and worst jobs in America (setting aside momentarily the notion in this recession that the worst job of all is one you had, and lost).
This is a list compiled by JobsRated.com, which is a career advice and job-hunting website. Their takeaway: if you work with your head, you're lucky. If you work with your back, you're unfortunate.
The best jobs almost all deal with data: mathematician, actuary, statistician, biologist and software engineer were the top five.
And the worst jobs?
Well, at least dairy farmer wasn't dead last, but it was #199 on the list of 200. The last was lumberjack. The other bottom feeding final five were EMT, seaman, and taxi driver. (Perhaps fellow AgWeb blogger Leigh Rubin is correcting in suggesting today that galley slave is yet even worse!)
Obviously, all of these types of internet rankings (Best and Worst movies; Best and Worst places to live, etc.) are incredibly subjective, even when they use a certain methodology to arrive at their scores. The reason dairy farming scored so low had to do with the combination of long hours, lots of physical work in all kinds of weather, and low pay – just $33,000 per year, on average.
And there is a kernel of truth to those caveats. Cows do need to be milked twice, and sometimes three, times of day, every day of the year. No vacations, no holidays. And they're milked in every state, from Alaska to Florida. And farming in general, not just dairy farming, is a physically-taxing job. A significant number of dairy farmers are forced to hang it up when knees and backs have had all the cartilage and flexibility eroded out of them by years of tough use.
That said, many farmers have employees to help with the milking and the mucking, so they can continue to manage the affairs of the farm operation without having to be involved in every milking. Most farms are multi-generational, so the folks with younger backs can help in the parlor, while the older folks sit on the tractor or at the desk chair.
In terms of compensation, I'm not sure exactly where the $33k annual income figure came from. Certainly, there are farms, mostly smaller dairies, that in bad years will struggle to net that kind of sum. Heck, given the way this year is shaping up, even bigger farms that employ multiple workers may think any kind of profit would be a Godsend. But hasn't farming always been a boom and bust line of work?
The bottom line is that the Jobsrated.com survey is really measuring two types of individuals. There are those that calculate and measure risks, like the aforementioned statisticians and actuaries. Then, there are those that battle the risks on a daily basis, live and in person, including dairy farmers, but also EMTs, who literally have lives in their hands, or the Paul Bunyans of the world, who have to handle heavy and unpredictable timber.
The great thing is that, unemployment rate aside, people have choices. Some farmers, even the poorly-compensated ones with the aching knees, would be even more miserable running spread sheets on a PC every day. If you're doing what you like or even love, then hopefully, it hasn't felt like work at the end of the day, even the longest day. To each his own.
I've been fairly prolific, to the point of being repetitively boring, in talking about the rise and fall of the commodity boom, and what it means to rural America in particular. Here are some postings from the past 12 months on the general topic:
Bubblicious Isn't Just for Gum
Gee, That Was Quick!
The Empty Easter Egg Becomes Hollow Halloween Candy
The Hollow Chocolate Easter Nest Egg
A Green Christmas in Big Red Country
As the New Year began this week, I noticed that the New York Times – still one of the key arbiters of what's Big News – also paid note of the same trend, focusing specifically on the recent plunge in dairy prices. A story by Andrew Martin, "As Recession Deepens, So Does Milk Surplus," can be found here.
This quote from the article basically sums up the point:
But now, demand for dairy products is stalling amid a global economic slowdown and credit crisis, even as supplies have increased. The result is a glut of milk — and its assorted byproducts, like milk powder, butter and whey proteins — that has led to a precipitous drop in prices.
I had spoken to Martin last month, prior to him writing the story, about what was happening in the global dairy markets, and how quickly demand was faltering in the face of increased international competition for milk exports, and of course the deepening recession.
I think the article actually understates just how dramatic that plunge has been. Last spring, dairy prices for things like cheese and skim milk powder were at least double what they are today. In just about six months' time, prices have crashed dramatically. Now, the same can be said for other commodities as well, ranging from corn to oil. And measured as a percentage, their drops have indeed been larger.
But you also have to consider where they were. This past summer, when oil hit $145/barrel, and corn was $8/bushel, those were levels that had no historic precedent. By contrast, the level milk prices reached this summer were less than what they'd been in the past.
Regardless of the math lesson, the net effect has been dramatic, and it's going to hit dairy farmers like a tsunami in 2009. Milk checks this spring will look meager indeed compared to a year ago, and while critics like Ken Cook (as quoted in the Times story) can whine about how government safety nets coddle farmers ("They don't want to downsize or respond to the market signal", he asserted), the fact is that there will be slew of downsizing, meaning farms selling out and banks recalling loans in the year ahead. It's just inevitable, and will mean farm families' livelihoods will disappear, just like in the mortgage meltdown we've been witnessing across the country.
The irony with this boom and bust cycle is that we know with great certitude that there is always an inevitable down trough that is paired with the upward surge; it's like the sun rising and setting. But just as inevitably, we always seem surprised when it arrives, and with how suddenly the damage gets inflicted.

The headings are pre-printed on the form along with other categories such as Married, Died, and a number of headings under a section titled "description extracted from his attestation". For the most part there is a written entry beside each pre-printed category so I wondered if the check mark was the equivalent of "no comment". |

Sound Check: RZA hip-hops onto the Hollywood bus with Quentin Tarantino
Rapper, actor and Wu-Tang Clan leader RZA comes to town this weekend primarily to hype the martial arts action film "The Man With the Iron Fist," his debut as a director and screenwriter. But he can't help but use the occasion to hop on stage, which he's been doing in cities throughout the movie tour.
"When we come to do music, that's so unpredictable on stage," says RZA (real name Robert Diggs), 43, who also supervised the film soundtrack, on which he performs songs with the Black Keys and Flatbush Zombies as well as with Wu-Tang Clan. "The main thing I'm promoting is the film, so I'm celebrating. We come there and we're hanging out, and we let the spirit take us where it takes us.
"The most important thing is we're gonna have fun and a good time. If we get a little wild, it's because it's a celebration, baby."
RZA teamed with Eli Roth on the script for "The Man With the Iron Fist," which opens Nov. 2. The movie was filmed in China and is being "presented" by friend and mentor Quentin Tarantino, with Russell Crowe and Lucy Liu co-starring. RZA says his musical experiences to this point helped him hone the skills he needed for a project of this scope.
"Working with Wu-Tang Clan has prepared me for this, as big an organization that we have," RZA says of the eight-member group. "I'm the guy driving that bus, so it was preparation. But (the movie) was like running a small country, man. We had hundreds of people working for us and so many details, very meticulous ideas that had to be executed and focused.
"But it felt good to take this hip-hop artistry and really transcend to this movie. I can't wait for people to see it."
RZA performs Friday, Oct. 12, at Saint Andrews Hall, 431 E. Congress St., Detroit. Doors open at 8 p.m. Tickets are $20. Call 313-961-8137 or visit www.livenation.com.

Schools Introduce a New Plan to Fight Childhood Obesity
Friday, September 10th, 2010
According to an aritcle from www.heraldsun.com, schools are intoducing a new radical plan to fight childhood obesity.
Schools Introduce Radical Plan to Fight Childhood Obesity
"Victorian primary school students are standing up in class for half an hour a day in a radical plan to beat childhood obesity.
And they're having 'activity breaks' to get them moving between classes.
Students are also set homework tasks such as going for a walk with mum and dad, and are being urged to reduce their time in front of the TV.
The pilot plan, involving 30 grade 3 classes from state schools, gives some students tokens that will restrict their TV viewing. If they go beyond their allocated time, the TV automatically turns off."

CLAY TWP. — Gallia County Sheriff's deputies are currently investigating a "suspicious death" that occurred on Monday afternoon in Clay Township, Gallia County.
According to a statement issued on Tuesday afternoon by Gallia County Sheriff Joe Browning, the sheriff's office is investigating the death of Zane T. Taylor, 33, of 1841 Ohio 218, Gallipolis.
At approximately 2:05 p.m. on Monday, June 11, deputies responded to the scene of Taylor's home after friends found him unresponsive and contacted sheriff's dispatchers.
Browning reported that the circumstances surrounding Taylor's death are suspicious, and Gallia County Coroner Dr. Daniel Whiteley has ordered the body to be sent to the Montgomery County Coroner's Office for an autopsy.
"Sheriff deputies, along with Ohio BCI&I [Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation] agents have been questioning and interviewing associates of Taylor's throughout the evening yesterday [Monday] and have conducted a search of his home," Browning stated.
The sheriff further stated that more information will be released pending the results of the autopsy.
Anyone with information that may assist law enforcement officers in this case is encouraged to call the Gallia County Sheriff's Office tip-line at (740) 446-6555.
This incident follows three other death investigations that have occurred in Gallia County in 2012.
David A. Ramey, Sr., 39, Vinton, has been accused following a first incident that occurred on the morning of February 15 on Hartsook Road in Huntington Township.
Ramey allegedly shot and killed his estranged wife, Stephanie R. Ramey, 28, and has been charged with one count of aggravated murder, one count of murder and one count of disrupting public services as a result of the incident.
The defendant is scheduled to appear for a jury trial in the Gallia County Common Pleas court on July 16.
A second alleged murder reportedly occurred during the early morning hours of March 1 after the disappearance of Betsy Ball, 67, Morgan Township, whose remains were found near the Village of Vinton, in a rural area approximately five miles from her home on Wilder Road, during the afternoon of March 1.
Lee Hawkins, 48, Bidwell, who had been employed by the Ball family at their farm, was named as the only suspect following Ball's death.
He was arrested on March 13 following an investigation into the incident by the sheriff's office.
Hawkins is facing charges of aggravated murder, murder, tampering with evidence and the abuse of a corpse in the common pleas court.
A jury trial in this case has been scheduled for August 20.
A third homicide occurred earlier this year in Gallia County near Kanauga on February 22.
Reportedly, Thomas Marr, 29, was found dead in his Addison Township home just prior to 12 p.m. on the day in question after a call was placed to the Gallia County 911 Center in reference to the victim who was reportedly having trouble breathing.
Marr later expired as a result of an apparent stab wound.
Further details about this case have not been released and sheriff's office officials have previously indicated that the case remains under active investigation.
