You can thank the ignoramuses in DC for this:

Lame. October 7th?

I don't know where to put this story, but it popped up alongside something else I read about, and I can't NOT post it. Here's a couple of parents who literally shipped their wild teen off to Siberia.

Mother sent Sofia Petrova to Siberia

Grounded!

Good lord! That poor kid...even if she's slanting the truth a bit, that's harsh punishment.

This video says it all...talk about poor people in dire need of help!

Undercover video shows Dallas “navigators” apparently coaxing an Obamacare consumer to lie

ACORN and NPR at it again.

Don't you mean Brietbart?

George Zimmerman arrested in a "domestic disturbance"...not with his wife but with his girlfriend.

11319. judithathome - 11/19/2013 10:43:42 PM

Zimmerman, as soon as he can scrape up $900, will be out on bail. $9,000 bond. Must wear an ankle monitor which he has asked the court to pay for since he is "destitute". Oh, and he must surrender his arsenal of guns while out on bail.

Don't we ALL feel safer now?

Well, guns aren't the only way a person can cause mayhem...Virginia State Senator(D) Stabbed By Son Who Later Kills Himself

Seems the son was taken in for emergency care under "mental issues" but there was no bed available so they released him.

What a wonderful health care system we have!

11321. arkymalarky - 11/20/2013 12:14:31 AM

Like OJ Simpson and Joren Vandersloot, Zimmerman's character will get him. Who else may die in the interim is the question.

I cannot BELIEVE this really happened: Not being able to single out gays and lesbians, Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin denies benefits to ALL National Guard in her state

Way to support those troops, Mare.

Well, The Senate has just instated the Nuclear Option...no longer takes a majority of SIXTY to pass on appointments to the federal bench (does not include Supreme Court appointments). Now it just takes a majority.

The Republicans are going insane over this and threatening payback when THEY get in the majority...

Maybe they should have given in on a few things along way...this is only over court appointments, something they have worked religiously through the years to stack with conservatives and thought they would have a strangle-hold on for years to come.

For all of Obama's term as President, we have had a "rule by minority" Congress...welcome to majority, guys!

Of course, this will change nothing in the House...which means nothing will get done but at least Obama can make federal judgeship recommendations and possibly, get a few passed. Just like every other president elected by a majority of the public.

If the Republicans continue down their current path, it may be a long time before they get a majority in the Senate.

11325. Ms. No - 11/22/2013 7:37:22 AM

When was the last time they had a majority in the Senate? I mean, it'll be in their favor the next time they've got 51% or more, so why are they bitching?

11326. judithathome - 11/22/2013 9:10:59 AM

Because that is what they do.

11327. iiibbb - 11/22/2013 6:05:26 PM

Payback--- Because two wrongs makes a right.

11328. Ms. No - 11/22/2013 6:13:50 PM

Well, no, but three lefts do.
