This will be interesting as I don't know how much more in favor of the democrats they can make these maps and still give republicans a fighting chance of holding office, but apparently, the democrats (times 2 since the voter rights group has a liberal sound to it as well) don't think they have enough as yet since they are one of the parties filing suit!  Since we still have all the gerrymandered districts, what good were amendments 5 and 6 which we foolishly thought would get rid…

Time to take a very close look at these choices I would think and make sure they don't have any baggage we are not hearing about?

A law school professor and a mortgage service executive have been named to seats on Jacksonville's Ethics Commission.

I am not sure how many are signed up at C2C, but Lloyd has a commentary there today I thought you might really enjoy, so here it is:

America Desperately Needs A Hero: But Who?

This is not and never was about contraception.  It is and always was about busting the first amendment and people's right to freedom of religion.  You can get lists and lists of places that offer contraception, so forcing Catholic hospitals and organizations to join that list is not about contraceptives.  Anyone who wants contraceptives can easily obtain them.  This is about him violating the 1st amendment and getting away with it, he hopes.  It is about the government forcing…

An oldie but goodie.  This is Obama when he ran for congress in 2000, and he tells us his ideology is the same as the Black Panther, Rep Bobby Rush, the opponent.

President Obama has long positioned himself as a moderate figure. But in 2000 during his failed run against Rep. Bobby Rush he discussed being similar in political viewpoint to the former Black Panther Congressman and described himself as “progressive urban Democrat.” The video from…

I just got this today, and I am asking that anyone not on his Email list take hold and take heart and write and let him know how you feel about the problem he is asking about.  Thanks.

Look! Up in the sky! Is it a bird? Is it a plane? It’s … a drone, and it’s watching you. That’s what privacy advocates fear from a bill Congress passed this week to make it easier for the government to fly unmanned spy planes in U.S.…

This is not a good idea at all, and as pointed out in the article it has been "abused and misused" in the past.  Also, "the Supreme Court struck down a line item veto law from the Clinton era due to the separation of powers issue".  We have to start holding the congress accountable when they pass laws that are unconstitutional again and again.

Why must every dime recieved be used to hire more union teachers or administrators or more people.  Aren't there other things that would improve the educational experience for these school children?  It just creates a problem when the grant goes away, and there is no money to keep these teachers.  This happens every time and then, the union claims we are cutting their budget when the grant is gone!

More money for education would be a good thing as long as it goes to improve the schools instead of making administrators wallets fatter than they already are!  Usually though, the unions find a way to make it improve the lifestyles of their members.

Hmmm interesting news.  I wonder if this will impact anything besides the guidelines being waived because of a plan put in place?

One of the stated purposes of the Bush-Obama wars of the 21st century is to conduct "nation-building"  (a concept General George Patton would likely find foreign to a warrior) and to bring democracy to the nations of the world. But how can we expect the people of Afghanistan and  other nations  to engage in Jeffersonian Democracy  when  Jeffersonian Democracy is dying or dead in our own?

So I ask what do you love more?

Our commander is chief has made a change in military funerals, and it is upsetting to those who have noticed.  It, to me, somehow diminishes the worth of these people who gave their lives or years of their lives fighting our wars and helping to keep us free.  This came from one of the members of the Arlington group.

This is total lunacy.  These folks have got to stop spending money period............no matter what it is spent on.  We don't have the money; we can't spend it.

This is totally rediculous, and a congressman from Virginia has written a letter asking this to be reversed.  You can't write and thank him on his web site, because you don't live in his district.  You can, however, go to his facebook page and thank him and he has a comment on his page about this.  I am including the article, and below it is a copy of the letter he wrote.  If you approve, you can go here…

This came from an Arlington Group member, and it seemed like something that should be shared with everyone!

This makes me feel like they CAN do something to counter Obama.  If this gets done, many new jobs will be created!

People tried to warn Romney and Gingrich that their personal warfare was impacting their standing in the polls, but they just refused to stop..............and now Romney has his sights on slamming Santorum.  Let's hope Mr. Santorum pulls a Bush and refuses to play the game.  Bush never did get into mud slinging fights, because he thought it was unpresidential (and it is).  Congratulations and good for you Mr. Santorum!
