If you haven't heard about Jackie Whiton and her plight, please watch this. I know Jackie, and I'm proud to say that I support her and the stand she is making.

Let it be known that Jackie is making a stand about welfare, not the loss of her job.
Noni,
ReplyDeleteI could simply be missing it, but I don't see an email link to you, therefore, I'm posting the following update here:

Most folks don't follow "politics" too closely. I see that your passion (or one of them at least) is needlepoint.
Hey... that's cool!
I don't expect people to spend all their time reading, watching, and listening to news.
THEREFORE...
I do it for 'em!
I hope you've been reading my blog. Indeed, I hope you've suggested to friends, family, colleagues, and even acquaintances that they check it out.
The politicians are DESTROYING "our" America.
Sticking our heads in the sand and pretending it's all "business as usual" and "this too will pass" is not an option this time around.
You note today's unemployment rate (which is itself UNDERTATED) of officially 8.2%. That's the "new norm." If we're lucky!
The inflation that government and the media tell you doesn't exist...? You see it every time you go to the grocery store. And indeed it's worse that "straight" inflation. It's not just that a widget went from $2.49 to $3.49 in one fell swoop; no, it's that the widget you may have paid $2.49 for a POUND (16-oz.) of last month is now $3.49 for 11 ounces!
You realize America's sons and daughters are still being blown to bits in Afghanistan of course... but do you realize that Iraq is a mess too and that Americans are still dying there - only instead of men with guns called "marines" and "soldiers" they're now called state department and CIA "contract personnel."
Bottom line... whatever your politics... whatever your ideology... my website - and my education and talents - are provided FREE for the access.
I hope that you and others take advantage of the news and analysis my blog offers.
My blog isn't just another "political" site. No. It's giving the FACTS... giving my opinion... and then leaving the rest to the reader.
Anyway...
