He has no jurisdiction here. We bounced the king out of our business over 200 years ago. This king needs to go. Soon.

Why do they even have a voice. The hypocrisy of the union leader saying students need protection from the Charter school is ingorning the 1000lbs elephant in the room that the student needs protection from the union, which sadly there is none.

Not even if I am getting creative. why do the liberals ruin all the beautiful places. I love SF but could never live there due to the politics. I am not far off in MN, even here it is sometimes unbearable. If I think about it, my presidential vote for the past 27 years, I don't think has ever counted. Even when Mondale lost every state BUT MN.

If someone said this to me, I would say to them, who the hell do you think you are.

Anything to slow the killing as a business is good. 2) We lost just a bit of our freedom here. People donate to komen based on the cause. komen uses the funds to support the cause. Endo of story, except when the left gets involved and bullies you to support one of their sacred cows - the option to kill your baby if it suits your lifestyle. Plain old disgusting and diappointment.

Also does congress have any idea what their regulatory measures do to the millions in the private sector? I work for a financial services company and I can tell you the millions upon millions we spend to be compliant with some of the ludicrous legsilation they pass. What they are asking is nothing that I don't do on a quarterly basis as a part of my employment.

Otherwise what would the genesis of this statute be?? In Minnesota you pretty much have to hold your nose as far as its politicians are concerned.. Just think, Amy K, Mark Dayton, Walter Mondale, and who could forget the biggest laugher Al Franken. Oh I forgot Betty McCollum and Keith Ellison. I live in Burnsville, mn which is 20mi due south of Mpls and our mayor, in her infinite quest to leave a legacy, has promoted and had built a performing arts center in our "downtown", that is sapping our city of it resources. That thing, all shiny and new, only hosts free stuff and does not draw any performers. Even George Jones backed out. Our lawmakers are out of control both locally and most certainly in Washington. AS to this story, I have to ask, who made it their business to engage in this regulation? Vote them out now..

Not the other garbage you're talking about. America is not hiding from this vote unless the 60% of people who do not want this are: The birthers, the fanatics, the people running around in right-wing militia and Aryan support groups, I don't think so. I for one nor the 50 or so friends I know that are appalled at this BS do not fit into one of those groups.

First< she has me almost convinced that ACORN is a great organization.. I am waiting for Janeen Garfalo to weigh in before I am convinced second, anyone who thinks Michelle Bachman is a shill IS a shill.

They are doing the same thing here only on steroids. This is a very similar pattern to the democrats and liberals response to Michele Bachman. Both of them make the liberals wet themselves just by listenign to them. They are two of the same mold and I hope they both go on to bigger things and kick some major butt.

They have too many people dedicated to fact checking Sarah Palin's book. How could they handle it?
