<description>If the ShoWare center is still bleeding taxpayer money despite this event, I don&amp;#039;t care what the secret is. </description>

<title>KOMO - Seattle, WA : Schrammie: Archbishop Sartain politicizing the Catholic faith | Ken Schram | Seattle News, Weather, </title>
<link>http://www.komonews.com/opinion/kenschram/Schrammie-Sartain-needs-to-reconcile-his-political-motives-with-his-religious-beliefs-147965935.html#IDComment343494558</link>
<description>Thank goodness Ken isn&amp;#039;t a bishop or the head of the Church that Christ established. You obviously don&amp;#039;t know the faith, Ken, so here&amp;#039;s a referesher:    &amp;quot;When legislation in favor of the recognition of homosexual unions is proposed for the first time in a legislative assembly, the Catholic lawmaker has a moral duty to express his opposition clearly and publicly and to vote against it. To vote in favor of a law so harmful to the common good is gravely immoral&amp;quot; (UHP 10).    UHP Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Considerations regarding Proposals to Give Legal Recognition to Unions between Homosexual Persons  ***    In other words, the good bishop is 100% right and consistent with 2000 years of authentic, authoritative Catholic teaching. The living of your faith doesn&amp;#039;t end when you vote.   &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.catholic.com/tracts/homosexuality&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.catholic.com/tracts/homosexuality&lt;/a&gt; </description>

<description>It&amp;#039;s not free.  It&amp;#039;s paid for by robbing taxpayers.   Can we get back to only spending precious taxpayer dollars on essential services that cannot be done by non-governmental entities? </description>

<description>The fewer sports teams we have here, the fewer excuses the elected klepocrats have to reach their grubby paws into our wallets.  Please save me the &amp;quot;this time it&amp;#039;ll be different speech&amp;quot;.   </description>

<title>KOMO - Seattle, WA : Consumer Reports: Best water filters | Consumer News | Seattle News, Weather, Sports, Breaking News </title>
<link>http://www.komonews.com/news/consumer/Consumer-Reports-Best-water-filters-142868655.html#IDComment317843928</link>
<description>A gallon of distilled water is fairly cheap and always purer than anything a filter can produce.  You just have to get used to water with no taste, but that doesn&amp;#039;t take long. </description>

<title>KOMO - Seattle, WA : Overnight winds cause new power outages | Local &amp; Regional | Seattle News, Weather, Sports, Breaking</title>
<link>http://www.komonews.com/news/local/Overnight-winds-cause-new-power-outages-138041568.html?clmob=y#IDComment274274648</link>
<description>There are new outages in King County, too. Too many trees are planted way, way too close to power lines. So when we get even mild gusts, out go the lights. It&amp;#039;s ridiculous.    Either they need to put more transmission lines underground, or people need to save planting tall trees for places far away from power lines. Short species of trees are pretty, too, if you need to plant in the area of overhead lines. </description>

<description>If they scratch the right backs, they might be able to get a ton of taxpayer-funded bailout money.  It&amp;#039;s the Obammunist way. </description>

<description>Instead of taking a dump on marriage by trying to redefine it into absurdity, why don&amp;#039;t homosexuals just get power of attorney for each other?      Quit the antagonism toward marriage. </description>

<description>I feel sorry for the people making such hateful comments.    What do they hope to accomplish with their vitriol? Converting people to a world view in which, if true, nothing should exist at all? </description>

<title>KOMO - Seattle, WA : Congress flips dimmer switch on light bulb law | Consumer News | Seattle News, Weather, Sports, Brea</title>
<link>http://www.komonews.com/news/consumer/Congress-flips-dimmer-switch-on-light-bulb-law--135757778.html#IDComment239520529</link>
<description>This law was actually set to have the opposite of its intended effect.  Millions of people were hoarding bulbs in huge quantities, thus guaranteeing that they&amp;#039;d use lower-efficiency bulbs years or decades longer than if the free market was allowed to run its course without the governmental threat of a ban.      The irony is hilarious.  That&amp;#039;s in addition to the irony of increased mercury exposure in homes due to broken bulbs in confined areas. </description>

<description>That&amp;#039;s why lots of people are dropping pay TV and putting back up their rooftop antennas or viewing programs over the web.  TV ain&amp;#039;t worth even $10 a month. </description>

<description>And once again, we are forced to pay for the public education system&amp;#039;s corruption and incompetence.      This will only end when we finally get the state out of the education business.  Any non-governmental school that did this would be out of business by now.  Public schools are too connected-by-law to your wallet to fail. </description>
