Well, Mr. President, does the 10% mean that is how much you have been serving the office or your assumption of blame for the economy? Assuming its the economy. Did you forget about the GM bailout, the stimulus, cash for clunkers, the failed solar companies, the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), the short Libyan War (3rd war), aid to the Mideast new democracies (sarc) and Michelle's vacations? You have no idea what the debt (or deficit) is, you have no budget, and no plan. By the way, where are the jobs?
SECRETARY OF STATE HILLARY CLINTON: One of the issues I have been preaching about around the world is collecting taxes in an equitable manner, especially from the elites in every country. It is a fact that around the world the elites of every country are making money. There are rich people everywhere, and yet they do not contribute to the growth of their own countries.
They don't contribute by, say, investing in companies that create new products and jobs? They don't contribute by, say, paying taxes on their earnings and then paying taxes on them again when they die? They don't contribute if they're not quiet little slaves of the state? Is that what the American secretary of state is saying?
It's a fact around the world that Hillary Clinton has always been far more radical than she lets on. She looks less radical in the current administration, only because Barack Obama, Susan Rice and Valerie Jarrett and others in the group look more obviously radical than she does. But she's every inch the socialist that they are. She's just better at hiding it. Great. Let's take away all your wealth then lady since you don't contribute. Elites are always allowed to volunteer to go first...

All these models of Saint Francis of Assisi telling us about how to conduct our lives.

The government of Sweden discovered otherwise. When they instituted higher taxes on millionaires, they just left. Tax revenues went down, but more importantly, in many cases the jobs those millionaires created left, too. Sweden then eliminated the millionaires tax when they elected a center-right government. Tax revenues increased, job creation increased, fewer Swedes were on welfare. They then re-elected that center right government. First time they had re-elected a center-right government in many decades.

Oh, d**n--the lesser of Dem evils just goes off the rails. On the otherhand, if she means rich kings and sheikhs not improving the lives of their Palestinian wives' people instead of relying on US aid or amoral hedge fund traders that seek to undermine the constitutional republic we hold so dear & rich Russian arms traders, I mean tycoons, she may have a point...

Rich people may be all mean and evil and nasty (except when they are making political donations to the correct party), but if you look at countries composed entirely of poor people, they don't seem to be doing to well.

His parents, Frieda and Mayer Hikind, both Holocaust survivors, whose families were decimated by the Nazis, rebuilt their lives in the U.S. In their home, Dov learned the true value of justice and honor, the dignity inherent in every human being regardless of their station or position, and the inalienable significance of freedom.

Airandee, that was true long before the First Klingon started meddling with school lunches. I've read elsewhere that 70 to 80% of the food served in a typical school meal ends up in the trash can.
That's why I say feed the youts with pizza and ice cream -- they'll actually eat it, and the sugar high will make them more controllable during English class.

From Daily Caller: (Rep. Steve King is at least a Congressman with some sense in DC)
This picture of a school lunch tray was uploaded to the Facebook photostream of "Nutrition Nannies," a group established by Republican Rep. Steve King that urges users to submit photos of their childrens' lunch trays. From the group's website: "USDA's new school lunch guidelines are leaving our children hungry. "Tag" Nutrition Nannies in your pictures of your children's school lunch trays. Use this page as a forum to learn about and express your frustration about the new guidelines." King has introduced the "No Hungry Kids Act" to repeal the new school lunch regulations, which were championed by Michelle Obama. (FACEBOOK)....The standards which cap meal calories at 650 for students in kindergarten through fifth grade, at 700 calories for middle school students and 850 for high school students also dictate the number of breads, proteins, vegetables and fruits children are allowed per meal.
A spokeswoman for Iowa Republican Rep. Steve King, who earlier this month introduced legislation to roll back the new standards, told The Daily Caller that Kings office has heard more complaints about the issue during the past few weeks than any other...And some student-athletes in Wisconsin are arguing that the calorie caps hit them especially hard, given their intense workouts and scrimmages.
A lot of us are starting to get hungry even before the practice begins, Mukwonago High senior Nick Blohm told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Our metabolisms are all sped up.... We would eat our pencils at school if they had nutritional value.

So the government interferes with our lives and manages to create a black market and the kiddie version of organized crime. Could there possibly be a lesson here?

With the U.S. Supreme Court about to hear arguments in a case that could decide the fate of affirmative action in admissions, a research war has broken out. Defenders and critics of the consideration of race are releasing new studies (some of which were submitted in briefs to the court) on the impact of affirmative action.
Several studies presented Friday at the Brookings Institution suggested that eliminating the consideration of race would not have as dramatic an effect on minority students as some believe, and that the beneficiaries of affirmative action may in fact achieve less academic success than they would otherwise. Yea, but what would somebody like Liz Warren do? Be a ham and egger...

Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. - 14th Amendment
Obey the letter of the law or modify it by the Article V process. Anything else is just the exercise of pure POWER rending law as simply anything those in power declare it to be at anytime they so wish, the capricious and arbitrary rule of men previously known as monarchy or aristocracy.

The General reluctantly instructs the colonel, "I wish we could send more, but we can spare only 14 men for the parade". The colonel instructs the Major, "we must send at least 50 men to the parade". The Major instructs the Captain, we must send two platoons to the parade". The Captain informs the First Sergeant to assemble the entire company, less the mess section, for parade.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
