Hi Everyone,
I’m in for Gretchen today. Any big 4th of July plans? How will you be celebrating your Independence Day?
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
Good morning pretty Alisyn. I’m buying my wife a new car for the Fourth. She has no clue. Otherwise just takin’ it easy. Hope you have a nice one too.
Good morning. It is wonderful to see you this morning. We are having some friends over tomorrow evening……good food, good friends….can’t beat that. The rest of the holiday weekend will be spent just relaxing.
We will especially pray for this wonderful country and all of those brave military people who have in the past and continue to make our freedom possible.
Good morning Alisyn! What a nice surprise to see you today. Celebrating Independence Day with friends and family, and of course, cookouts! Hope you enjoy yours as well!
Ali, shame on you for not giving us a heads up that you would be on today. Saturday some neighbors are just going to get together for a cookout and watch a parade in your little town of Whispering Pines (near Pinehurst) NC
Great to see Coach Coughlin in Iraq with the General. It shows that the NFL players and coaches care for the troops and was a POSITIVE story about sports figures.
Good morning Alisyn, great seeing you this pretty day! Will be spending the 4th with neighbors, grilling and swimming and fireworks.
Good morning Ms. Alisyn,
I thought you were going blog free today. Perish the thought.
I think some firework viewing is on the table this year. I plan on cooking a nice rack of baby back ribs.
How about you? Any plans for the kids watching some fireworks? Although that might be tough given you will working early Sunday.
Nice to see you this morning.
chas
Morning all…specially you Chas….Ali hope you and your family have a great 4th.
Good Morning from Flyover.
Nice to see you this morning. Have a Blessed day.
Later all T-time
I won’t be stepping out onto that glass platform, than you very much!
Hello all you great people! Morning Ali. Nice suprise on this gloomy Michigan morning!
Hey, Betty I was wondering where you’ve been. I asked about you at P & P last night but cashed in the chips early. Hi Chas….nice to see you.
No big plans. The ususal fam get together is off as the women’s softball tournament that usually brings us together was move to another city. Might go to a party at a nearby lake.
Sunday we go to move # 1 Kid- again.
Good Morning Alisyn and everyone.
Alisyn. You have the means to do it for us.
Please give a great big “Thank you for your service” to all our troops, whether in Harms Way or not.
We honor them this weekend as always, but especially for the 4th to recall and reflect the freedom that they are defending.
good morning. I will be at lake house on friday and saturday. nice surprise to see you today Alisyn. happy birthday belated. You and Jennifer Annniston are twins. both have the ‘look”.
Alisyn,
I will be celebrating the privilege of having him here w/his children and grand children.
We are a lucky group for sure!!
Wow! It’s great to see you this morning. Good morning fellow fans. No plans…just time to reflect and pray a lot, for this great country. And, of course, I sure hope the sun shines, and it gets warmer!!! Very chilly today, in Ohio…of course, I will hug my dad…the old soldier is definitely one of my major hero’s. lol
Good morning Alisyn and fellow bloggers Raining in Ohio this AM. Great to see you on today Alisyn. I’m taking my wife for a get away weekend in the backwoods. Just getting away to clear our minds and relax. Too much stress lately. Probably most from this blog LOL
Houdy Houdy All, Thanks for the tip Sterling. I hope the others pick up on it.
We usually have a slow cooked BBQ of some sort, but with the current heat wave, I don’t think I want to be around a “pit” all day. It may be deli sandwiches this time.
At any rate, for those of you who will be with family, enjoy. You are truly Blessed.
Morning Bruce, glad you made it over!
Fireworks tonight that I get to watch from my house,also Fri and Sat these I have to drive to.
Hey Sal. How are you? There seem to be alot of peeps from Ohio here.
My wife’s a Buckeye so she instructed me to say O H
I O!!!
Carolynro “Ohio the heart of it all” LOL
I have two days off this weekend and will enjoy the time off.
I took an extra day myself to make it a 4 day weekend.
Good Morning Carolyn, yes there is a few from the great state of Ohio.
Yes John, Ohio, the heart of high taxes and crooked governors.
Well, I am a Wolverine, born on the campus of U of M!!
Glad you are getting some time off to enjoy the holiday, Sal.
We all need to pray for our young soldier who was captured. We have all seen what those monsters (and yes, I will not hesitate to call them monsters) are capable of.
Tell me about Sterling WOW. Aliysn are you going to on again tomorrow?
Listening to Rush from last week and he says Obama was protested in Green Bay at a Health reform Town Hall! But, the mainstream media didn’t report it.
Carolynro, sorry about your luck
Amen Sterling.
Carolynro I was talking about the Wolverine thing.
Carolyn That’s almost enough grounds to have you booted from this Ohio State blog. LOL
All the other networks are tryin’
To top the Show with Steve, Ali and Brian.
chas
All the other networks are tryin’
To top the Show with S teve, A li and B rian.
chas
2nd try…lol
Noting planned My Husband is a registered nurse and is working a 12hr shift, will have quiet dinner when he gets home. I will have a quiet day around the house. It is so nice to see you on a weekday..
Ha ha…Bo Schembechler forever!! Although, I did hear Woody Hays speak at one of my dad’s class reunions. My dad croaked the day he learned that the ob who delivered my baby went to OS!
Good Morning Liz K…and Thank you… I need it thats for sure.
and we will pray for our soldier who was captured.
Fox and Friends is just a disguise, The real show is Ali and the guys.
Wow! Go, Helen Thomas!!!!!
Before I get myself in any more trouble I’ll just go to work. BYE all
How do you mean, Chas?
Did you see the Chip Reid and Helen Thomas thing with Gibbs??? Wow!!!!
Have a good day Bruce.
Well Carolyn, you were blessed to have an OSU OB, now weren’t you!!! Go Bucks!!
Bye, Bruce. My husband is a Sparty!
Its about time the MSM start asking questions… heres one,
where is all the money going?
Sterling…a huge disappointment fr the state that usually provides great leaders, hum??? lol
Have a great day Bruce! lol
Ha! Very nicely said John! and I hope you have a great getaway. Yes, one does need a breather about now. lol
Lovely to start the day w/Aly, for sure. Made me smile HUGE!!!
Sal,
Where’s all the money coming from?
chas
There are more than a few Buckeye’s here for sure John! lol
Ha!!! lol
Let’s see…. my husband, 3 step-daughters and myself are all going home from a week of work out on the road. Can’t wait to be out of a little motel room and back in our own space! Plan to spend the 4th cooking out, possible hot air balloon rides-weather permitting and watching fireworks! Then on Sunday…. my 3 daughters return home from their summer break!!! Can hardly wait to have all 6 of our girls at home!!!!!
Most importantly…. we are going to give thanks for the men & women of our military for all that they do wot keep our country safe and FREE!
Here is another question,
where is… all this money… going?
Is this government investing taxpayer money…. in what they.…invested in?
Hello.
Great to see you in this morning. The question about President Obama he has been losing creditablity since the get go. I think the strategy is hit the public with so many issues that we can not keep up. Major manipulator.
I’m going in to work late as
I have an appointment for a phyical. Hope it’s not DR Cold Fingers this time. LOL
A better question of course Chas…where is it coming fr {us} and we don’t get to know where it’s going, hum? After all, we aren’t smart enough, or did you FORGET THAT!!!! Yikes! Been said often enough, I would think you would be able to remember you aren’t capable of a serious thought. Alarming, for sure.
grrrrrrrrr
Chas.. the money will come from us.
Alisyn, I have never heard how much money the many Czars will make annually and when Obama leaves office in 3 years will their posts be automatically eliminated? Thanks for keeping us informed. Suzanne
PS I did manage to get both of my sons in the Soap Box Derby Hall of Fame 83/85 in Acron Oh.
You can’t get money from a stone Sal. He’s pretty much taken everything from a generation or 3 to come.
chas
During the Bush administration’s term, Helen Thomas asked questions in such a manner to try to validate her preconceived answers.
Yesterday, she asked tough, direct questions of an opaque adminstration, masquerading as transparent. Look at Gibbs. The truth hurts doesn’t it? The press complained about lack of infromation from the White House during Bush’s term, but it was not dishonest as it is now.
Good morning Luise,
Exactly…one wonders if himself can remember what all is being presented. I doubt it!!! He’s not informed at all, would seem, and just in chg of shouting fr the rooftops, every day, about his wonderous election, and all the GOOD things the population can expect. Whoa! Seems he may have been a bit untruthful? YIKES! Would seem…but, again, he prob can’t remember exactly what he has said in the past, and doesn’t care much, one suspects. lol Or so it would seem, anyway.
I was getting my hair cut yesterday and we were talking about how none of the people who are ruining the country have ever worked like my stylist or my husband or millions of other small business service sector people, have never experienced the stress of wondering who or if anyone will walk through the door or ring our phones or if we will make enough money each month to pay for the rock bottom necessities, let alone health insurance or for a new roof when the old one wears out. And don’t forget about those of us who work for small businesses who are constantly under the treat of being laid off or having hours cut. I wish my liberal democrat senators and representatives would tag along with my husband for a day and then come to my office ands see how much paper work it takes just to run a small company and then look at the sales figures before they vote for one more thing!!!!
During the campaign, Obummer said over and over that taxes would not be raised on those making less than $250,000.00. Now the story is that he said no increase in income taxes. So that makes it okay to raise taxes on everything not called income tax?
Wolverine? Isn’t that a wolf that stands on the corner and says “Hi Guy”?
Oh Historical note, 3 of our first 5 President died on the 4th of July. Jefferson, Adams and Monroe.
Madison died within a week of the 4th, (June 28th).
chas
Interesting factoid, Chas.
Good Morning Everyone!!!!
Happy 4th to all. Another dreary day here in NY. It has rained so much that I feel water logged. Have no plans for the 4th but usually go to my daughter’s for a BBQ. Hubby and I take turns going out because we don’t want to leave my mom alone. Gini say a hello to the Old Soldier for me
Hope everyone here has a safe holiday!!!!!
Morning Alison…
I believe in the American people… not in the government… we will do the right thing…
Very well said Carolynro, We run a small business and the paper work and permits are endless. I think they want us to hire more people to make them look good. LOL
Good Morning,
I tagged onto last Sunday’s blog, because I didn’t see this one, but I’d like to say it again: Great to see you Alisyn. Even after all this time, I still feel the team on this morning is the right team!
I’ll watch all three hours today.
By the time we get finished paying for all the ‘Pass Through Taxes” that will be added to the cost of just about everything, we will be lucky to have any net to pay income tax on. Oh, that’s right. We will no longer be able to deduct any of those costs. We will have to buy less in order to have enough to pay income tax.
By the way, when I lived in Ohio, I found out that a “Buckeye” was a worthless nut.
Good morning Suzanne…I haven’t either, and I guess he doesn’t have to say. One would think since they are hired by himself, they will go when he does? That’s my understanding. These are appts/hires, not permanent fixtures. lol
I know Chas, but he dont care.. he has a agenda and will go through with it,
the people in the media need to start asking questoins,
like what tha hell are you doing to our country.
Well, I don’t know about the rest of the country but there is not alot of money left here to pay for anything else. Michigan has another $920 million budget deficit for 2009 after cutting $1 billion. Hellooooo nothing is coming in on the revenue side because people are laid off or are not spending. It is an extremely a stubborn and/or oblivious president who refuses to do the simple math AND KNOCK OFF THE FAST AND FURIOUS SPENDING OF NON- EXISTENT MONEY!!!
Hey Good Morning Ali !! So great to see ya during the week again, are you going to be in for GC the rest of the week?
This weekend is the Regatta whoo hooo http://www.madisonregatta.com so lots of friends & plenty of food. How about you?
Hi Alisyn,
Good to see you “on air’ this morning and I hope all weekend. No plans;other than staying home,watching FNC & maybe some tennis and hoping for the best for our country.
Have a good day,
Paul-Eau Claire, Wi.
I’m looking forward to grain and dairy to be unaffordable, hum? It’s pretty high priced now, and that will definitely get worse, along the way, w/all the new taxes and energy legislation. Yep…pep will not be warm, and they will be hungry as well…hum! Wonder how that will sit with those who think he has all the answers?
I just read back an all I can say is>> OU>>>> Boomer Sooners!!!!!!
You wanted to know when the press finally caught on to President Obama and his “handlers”. It was when they realized that all they will have left at the end of his term is that “one thin dime” that he promised wouldn’t be taxed.
So does this mean 4 straight days of Ms Alisyn?
chas
Gonna spend some time with family and friends playing music, eating BBQ, watching fireworks and trying to motivate people to GET INVOLVED with government and stop the madness!! I’m tired of the government thinking that we work for them and people believing it. This craziness will continue until the regular joe’s get off their butts and take the Lords and Ladies off their ivory pedestals in Washington.
SIC SEMPER TYRANUS!!! (LOL…just watched a ‘Seinfeld’ episode with “Crazy Nick Divola”)
ya’ll take care and enjoy your weekend!!! GO TEA PARTIES!!!
OH! There’s Steve’s handsome son! lol
Good job! lol
Our business started out strong this spring and now all we hear is crickets….I guess the bad news is sinking in finally that hope and change has turned into fear and retreat by the American people. I find it remarkable that there is going to be a tea party in Time Square in the most liberal city in the country!!!!
Ah! There’s S teve’s handsome son…let’s see if that posts! lol ha! He is a smart man, for sure. Good job!!!
Having a PIG roast. Garafalo is the guest of honor. I’m sure it won’t be a problem getting a spit rod through that big mouth.
Peter is such a nice looking and bright young man; you’ve done well, Steve. Love the show and all of you. Thanks for giving us ALL the news!
Had Enough!!!
~~laughing~~ Too true!!!
She prob won’t have the courage to show up, hum? lol
And I admonish each of you to give any political candidate a thorough looksee. Insanity is not confined to any particular political party.
Well, at least the unemployment numbers are slowing on paper. My kid cannot find a job- who is counting those people?
I thought the Pigiumlus plan was working. 9.5% unemployment. Maybe we need another LOL
How’s that HYPE and CHANGE looking now. I have a good secure job and it breaks my heart every time I see these Idiots in D.C. doing things to harm the job market. Just wait for FREE health care and CRAP and TAX and see how many are standing in the unemployment lines.Get active in politics, don’t just make calls , let them know you will work tirelessly against anyone that doesn’t vote for what’s best for their constituents. They ignore calls and toss correspondence in the trash can, these morons should not be called representatives,they represent no one except themselves and lobbyist
Carolynro Have your kid try to get a job being a watchdog for Amtrak. Sorry already filled with a croney LOL
It’s all about beer and bottle rockets!
Food is pretty cool too.
Everyone have a great day and a Happy Fourth of July. God bless all
Had Enough….that’s a perfect description of the Republicans! Booyah!
If you are looking for a way to not overeat this 4th try taping a picture on Nancy Pelosi to the top of the picnic table. Next time you go to Chucky Cheese look at the rat and tell me if that’s not Henry Waxman ?
Just imagine how bad those unemployment numbers would be if McCain was in office! Wow…I hate to think. The car companies would be out of business and the domino effect would have added another 5% to those numbers, at least!
There is a robot here… that has been paid… to be here.
Liz is back glad I’m off to Dr. and get a phyiscal. That’s less painful than listen to her try to defend her crooked dem party.
My wife and I are going to a gathering of friends. We are going to celebrate our God and country even though politicans in D.C. are doing everything to wreck our economy and drive the USA into bankruptcy.
Patrick
Just think about how bad those unemployment numbers would be if McCain were in office! I hate to think! The car companies would be shut down and the domino effect would add at least 5% to those numbers! Not to mention that almost every state would be broke……and on and on…..
I am not a Democrat! How many times do I have to tell you that!!! INDEPENDENT….but…..
Just think about how bad those unemployment numbers would be if McCain were in office! I hate to think! The car companies would be shut down and the domino effect would add at least 5% to those numbers! Not to mention that almost every state would be broke……and on and on.

Whoa!!! Helen Thomas gets the PATRIOT award I must think!!! It’s about time! lol
Sorry Liz your mistaken . I have called countless reps. on both sides and at least the Republicans will respond and actually don’t insult your intelligence when speaking to you. I think 90 % of both parties should be ran out of office.
OMG…rash alert!!! Heads down..sniper fire incoming! And things were just so pleasant, for a sec! lol
You might be right, but those unemployment would be a lot worse right now with McCain in office. Think about it. The car companies would be shut down and the domino effect would add at least 5% to those numbers! Not to mention that almost every state would be broke……and on and on. He would have had to add stimulus!
I agree with that statement, Had Enough. Most of them need to go, and it’s up to us to make sure they do. 2010 is just around the corner…..
I am outie. Nice to have spent time with all of you others. Have a good day.
Have a good day all. Thanks for the thoughts and company.
Looking forward to 3 more days with you on the air, Ms Alisyn.
chas
Have a great day Carolyn.
Scroll alert!
Have a great day Chas…enjoy the 4 days off.
Thanks Sal. Enjoy your 2 days.
chas
To think GM and Chrysler are the backbone of this economy is believe the Union hype. Look at all the non-union car makers they are way ahead of the game. How does it benefit the economy to spend a million tax dollars to save a $60,000 job ???Look at how this clown running our country is in bed with unions and look at the idiot’s who head them. Obama stands on stage with the President of the Mine workers union and says I’m going to put coal out of business and the UMW pres. applauds and raise Barrys hand like he just knocked out Tyson
I normally work, but this year I am taking a vacation day! I am going to the Big Butler Fair in Butler PA with my family! There is a Big Rig truck show, drag racing and truck pulls, lots of good greasy fair food, animals, rides and,of course, FIREWORKS!! It’s gonna be a great !!!! (How redneck is that but I love it!!!)
Thanks Chas…for me thats like a vacation…lol
Rednecks are some of the finest people you will ever meet. Don’t know how they got bad name. Redneck was what people used to call farmers that worked all day and would be sun burned from bending over working all day
KEEP OFF THE GRASS
I AM AN INDEPENDENT HA HA HA HA! What a joke!! Had Enough Liz works for obummer adm and for ACCORN Be aware. Bye I goota go see ya
Had Enough….it’s not only the car companies. Many industries are on the edge of collapse thanks to our thieving banking system. Stimulus was the only way to keep them all afloat.
John, stop spreading lies!
Truth to Power….Speak the Truth.
Cindy, don’t eat too much greasy food or you might come away from the Big Butler Fair with a big butt! LOL
The conservative and moderate democrats are starting to challenge this Administration,
where is all the money….this Administration in a few months has spent more from,
George Washington to George W Bush,
and everyone in between…. where is… all this money… going?.
Is this government investing taxpayer money…. in what they.…invested in?
Think about it.
just shaking my head———-
along with the rest of us A Wall.
How are you doing? Haven’t seen you around lately.
Red neck also referred to a working group that wore a red handkerchief they around their neck. I think it first referred to non-union or union Pennsylvania or West Virginia minors. But school has been a long time ago.

John, it might actually be the truth. Hell doesn’t want anyone else taking over and masochism is one thing that Satan has never been accused of.
Have a great day everyone.

Friday nite it’s a crew of my cousins for picnicing purposes, then to Modern Woodman Ballpark on the mighty Mississippi for their fireworks show. Saturday it’s the party in Bettendorf, IA (that has been going for MANY YEARS) with the husband’s family in from out of town to party with family and friends all day and watch the fireworks at dusk. Then we’ll likely dash to the ballpark for the fireworks they have after the game again! Wish you and your friends could be among our friends! Have a happy one, and God Bless America, on her birthday and everyday. Bless our troops, too, of course. And last, but certainly not least, NEVER FORGET 9/11.
Hi everyone–just lerking about today—much to do and so little time—This weekend will be a fine celebration—my niece is getting married on the 4th—just think of all the fireworks—woo hoo!!!
I never thought I’d see the day when the press actually start calling these guys on the cr_p they’re pulling.
Have a great weekend everyone—-
It’s was nice seeing Ali this morning–the 3 of them do make a good team!!
GOD BLESS AMERICA, LAND THAT I LOVE!!!!
A Wall…rash alert rash alert rash alert. Cookie Czar warns all to avoid the pandemic which is contagious, and injury can occur if engaging. Warnings have been sent thru out the domain, to beware, scroll a lot, and pray for relief to come soon!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMERICA, and we continue to stay alert and pay attn.
I have a wonderful day planned to day, so will leave this most wonderful place to be in the capable hands of staff, staffers, dept heads and chiefs, friends, fam, and all those that just came along…all the LTD’S, be careful!!!!!
See all later! lol
you people should advertise your show as republicans only
Dennis by [you people] who do you mean the bloggers or fox? The dems have the WH, senate and the house. Do you want control of this blog too? Gee wonder where we would be allowed to speak our minds. Any ideas Dennis?
John,
And to people like him MSNBC is fair and balanced….lol
chas
Dennis, they love to attack “libs” on this blog. Come on back anytime if you love abuse! LOL
I found Fox and Friends coverage of the Al Franken decision to be, ah, interesting. Was wondering how the comments and reactions of the hosts fit in to Fox’s claim to be “fair and balanced”. Then I thought, “Why should I be surprised?”
Attack Liz all I did was ask a question. Is that an attack now? WOW you socialists are touchy.
I have a question for anyone that knows. What will it take to make the socialists [libs] happy? They run the gov and some come on here to aggrevate anyone who is not a socialist. If we all agreed with them do you think they would quit meddling? For a party thats won they are an angry bunch.
Well, Dennis can see how negative this blog is, but you guys can’t put yourself in a neutral position to see that. When I look at your post I can see the “attitude” in it. It’s threatening, and it’s telling him he’s not welcome here.
John, I think the politically correct term would be moderate communist.
LOL
Maybe we would like to left alone and not bothered by meddlers. Yet you keep coming back. If you don’t like our attitude then the answer is simple. GO AWAY.
He could go to msnbc and post if they approved of what he was saying.
Sorry Dog I’ll get it right next time.
Guys I’m going to a picnic to play ball. I will probably be so sore tomorrow I will need a crane to get me out of bed. Anyone have a crane if I need help? LOL Have a great day. God bless all even libs LOL
K e e p o f f t h e G r a s s
No, Dennis we are Americans! LOL!
John,
You didn’t welcome him with open arms. You asked him a question instead. That constitutes an attack to a liberal.
And note, like some others here the first word out of their mouth on the very first visit is a complaint. But WE are negative and nasty. If it wasn’t so stupid it would be funny.
chas
I can’t believe you guys can’t see how nasty you are! It’s really incredible. Mob mentality. Even though I’ve shown some conservative tendencies, I’m still a “libturd” because I don’t call Obama names and hate everything about him.
YES, you are all negative and nasty to someone who might not show as much hatred for the current admin. as you do! I’ve just been referred to as a “moderate communist” or were you referring to Dennis? Hard to tell. Even though I’ve shown some conservative tendencies, without the hatred for Obama and everything he stands for, I am not welcome here. I noted that in my article BTW. It’s mind boggling that there are so many assorted nuts out in cyberworld. I wonder what it would be like to meet you all in person. I bet most of you are shy and you use the internet to “vent”.
Very true, Chas. Did you see Gibbs fall apart yesterday when Helen Thomas and Chip Reid asked questions about why the Town Halls seem to be stacked with “plants” or are given the questions that are allowed to be asked?
By the way, I wonder which Econ classes Obama took in college that taught him how the scare the confidence out of an entire country? When does the media start aksing him why is he so stubbornly sticking to a failed policy?
Keep off the grass!!!!
When Helen Thomas goes after someone, they know they are in trouble!!!!
DOG……..if I had wanted to go see these clips, I would have gone to UTube & looked them up. This is a blog, not a utube site (nothing against the song but this is Alisyns blog)
Helen Thomas was GREAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Alisyn……….. was GREAT to see you back on a weekday! You have a great connection with Brian & Steve
Alisyn……….. was GREAT to see you back on a week day! You have a great connection with Brian & Steve (dang, won’t post)
Alisyn……….. was GREAT to see you back on a week day! You have a gr eat conne ction with Bri an & St eve (dang, won’t post)
carolyn,
Can you point out to me where ANY Administration was discussed in the exchange about Fox News Coverage?
I didn’t think there was.
chas
I bet Tony Snow was smiling down on Helen laughin his butt off. As annoying as that old woman is, I think Snow enjoyed her LOL
She is a spicy old woman….89 years young and still working! She must have a hearing aid at least, dontcha think? LOL
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2009/07/01/cbs_helen_thomas_challenge_gibbs_on_controlled_town_hall_meeting.html
It just might be the first time Helen “slapped” a Democrat in her career. lol
chas
You lost me, Chas. Which exchange. I am not connecting the dots.

And then there is John response.
chas
humm – Liz must have one of her friends to stop by and post something.
Hundreds of lawmakers traveled overseas in 2008 at a cost of about $13 million. That’s a 50 percent jump since Democrats took control of Congress two years ago.
Fiscal responsibility is why the Dems are now in charge. How is that Hope and a prayer working for you?
chas
I think the girl has very low comprehension skills.
Everyone here keeps telling her that it’s not a republican blog site.
I think that most of the people here are Libritarian, or Independent.
And she has been told that over and over again.
I’ve suspected as much Mac. I’ve been here so long that I know patterns of this blog and things have change in the last weeks.
Oh, yeah.. My first post to Dennis got poofed. He was the one, after all- who came on making accusations without even saying hello. If he didn’t like what he read, why didn’ t he just poof? He felt he had to “censure” the previous conversations just like someone else I won’t mention always does. It’s that liberal arrogance that is in disturbing abundance!
Yeah well she has become a real boil .
Maybe someday she will just move on.
I can’t understand anyone wanting to stay where they just really are not wanted .
I think you know the reason for that Mac.
chas
I know there are many many places where prople like that can go and fit in, why do they even bother trying draw so much hate , and why do they feel like they are going to say one thing and then everyone should say oh were sorry will talk like you want us to talk …..
I guess she just feels like it’s her duty to disturb and disrupt as much as she can.
What happened to the nice guy Mac? I’m not a quitter and you know I have an agenda, so why would I leave? Only you and a few of your cronies really want me to anyway. LOL (Maybe I’m a big part of the New World Order….you never know)
Hey, I just love how the reporters are complaining about the questions! How many news conferences did Bush hold in all 8 years….probably not as many as Obama has in 6 months. I have to give him a lot of credit. Along with the news conferences comes the abuse, but he can take it. It’s all just trivial garbage and it’s not like their questions are going to be earth shattering anyway! Just cracks me up!
I guess maybe Daddy didn’t hug her enough when she was little. Or maybe he did, too much.
Who knows……..
I know for myself….. I wouldn’t waste my time with her group, if there is such a thing.
Guess I will look into a dinner of some sort.
Liz, everyone here has tried, and tried many times over to be nice to you.
You are very sick minded little girl. and there is no being nice to you.
Your not wanted here, trust me you are just imagining things.
No one here likes you or wants to hear your comments.
But you go ahead and stay. It’s your time to waste. And your a big enough moron to do just that.
You have no agenda at all …….. you just made that all up to justify staying where you are despised.
You sick in the head little girl. You are not writing any big paper, well unless it will be all copied and pasted stuff.
Your full of it Liz.
And everyone on this site is laughing at your tall tales and the way you try to act intelligent.
Your A real joke. Fool.
Whatever Mac. You are just typical of the nastiness that permeates these blogs. I won’t respond to you again, so just scroll on by OK? I know it’s not possible to discuss things in a civil manner with you, and a few others, so just scroll on by and forget I’m here!
Just scroll on by Mac….it sure won’t bother me!
Be nice to the poor little young lady. You know everyone is always picking on her.
The liberal agenda is based on being victims. She’s being true to her teachings. As a gentleman I will exit anywhere I am not welcome. If someone refuses to leave then she should not complain if things don’t go the way she likes.
Now John you know that we should bend over and kiss her —- to try to be nice to her and her kind.

Geez, forget that I’m here OK. I won’t promise to be silent, but you can ignore me, along with all the others who don’t believe in the New World Order. Just don’t talk about me at all OK? I might post links here and there and you can read or watch the videos if you want to, but don’t feel obligated to. In the meantime, I’m just an observer, so please feel free to complain amongst yourselves. I will talk to anyone who wants to be civil, but if you want to resort to name calling I will ignore you!
Here’s the “truth” about the stimulus and the economy….and it’s on FOX!

This morning she said we would not talk in person. I have been waiting all day for her to post her complete name, address and phone number. I know about assuming but I assumed from body from the Detroit/Warren area could contact and make the arrangements for a face to face.
When the Sony Walkman went on sale 30 years ago, it was shown off by a skateboarder to illustrate how the portable cassette-tape player delivered music on-the-go — a totally innovative idea back in 1979.
Today, Sony Corp. is struggling to reinvent itself and win back its reputation as a pioneer of razzle-dazzle gadgetry once exemplified in the Walkman, which Wednesday had its 30th anniversary marked with a special display at Sony’s corporate archives.
The Japanese electronics and entertainment company lost 98.9 billion yen ($1.02 billion) in the fiscal year ended March — its first annual loss in 14 years — and is expecting more red ink this year.
Hello Fox and Friends, fireworks were great last night. They lasted about 38min. I live about 1 3/4 miles from the launch site and 1000′
above. We sat on the deck and looked straight out. Pretty neat.
Good Morning
Its about time the media starts to ask some questions…it looks like everything is staged,
the questions and answers are already known….the people are put in place,
maybe like the election?
Morning Sal, I did’t think they would ever wake up. I hope this is the new hope and they ask about the transparency.
Morning Bruce, I know,
I was wondering when these people would wake up and do their jobs.
Helen shares her name with my grandmother. She also reminds me of her. I stopped by one day with a friend she did’nt know. Grandma looked right at him and said who the h— are you? Gotta love those ole ladies.
This is my first time writing in, despite being a long-time viewer. Alisyn, would you consider dating a single physician/father of twin lab girls in the Norfolk, Virginia area? All three of us are very well behaved!
Mornin Dr.
There is a God! The press is finally “getting it”. Geez they should have listened to “us”. But, better late than never LOL.
Hi Sal & Bruce. Welcome Charles. I wonder what Ali’s husbanc would say
!
Hi Wolverine
Good Morning Carolyn… I hear you… its about time isnt it.
Ruth Madoff with 2.5 million…not pocket change.
Hey Bruce. It was a sight to behold the government media finally get frustrated with the plastic presidency. I’ve been gagging since the nomination event with the columns and the special effects that have not been seen since the filming of “Moses”.
I am going to get going before the BS starts here today. Have a wonderful day and we will meet again tomorrow!
Anyone have a tea party close by tomorrow
I hear you Carolyn, I always miss the fireworks.
Well Charles and Sal I to must go so your on your own. Later.
We will be BBQing at our house, then moving to the neighbors pool to cool off, and when the sun goes down, another neighbor will set up his fireworks, and the show will begin as we all gather around the community pond. After the fireworks are done, a bon fire will be lit, and marshmallows will be toasted. Just like when we were kids. Sometimes the simple life means more than anything you can buy. While we sit by the fire, we will all be very thankful for what we have, life, liberty, and all our precious freedoms that our fore fathers risked for and lost all so we could have the freedoms we do today.
Rush transcript:
CALLER: Good. I’ve grown up listening to you my whole life. I’m a senior in college and I’m getting ready to graduate, and I’ve learned more listening to one of your shows than I have in all of my years in schRUSH: Well, that’s awfully nice. I don’t doubt that that’s true, either.
CALLER: It’s very true. I’m calling because my father is an orthopedic surgeon and I work at his office, and, you know, government and Medicare, they’re already controlling doctors, and they dictate what they get paid, and now it’s even starting to affect the private sector insurance. You know, not too long ago my father did a surgery, and I sent out the bill to a private insurance company, and they came back and they said we will reimburse you for 15% of what you billed. And they said we’re doing that because that’s what Medicare would do.
CALLER: So the private sector is now saying, well, you know, government Medicare, they’re dictating, they’re telling doctors what they can –
continued:
RUSH: Exactly. Exactly right. That’s the leverage Obama has over them at the AMA. Medicare already reimburses them. But you know how many people use Medicare. It’s already in as much trouble as Social Security is. But the telling point is Obama’s out there talking about we need a new option, we need more options. There are 1,300 health care options available for people in this country, according to George Will. What’s adding one more gonna mean? In fact, adding the government option will result in
a little light reading for all……to remeber what this country is all about……
When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bonds which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security. –Such has been the patient sufferance of these colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former systems of government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world.

I have to say that it is pretty pathetic that a senior in college has not learned more about this Republic than he could glean from one of Rush’s propaganistic radio rants. Good God!, that is more alarming, and detrimental, than Obama’s socialism, because the latter cannot be fought without an educated and dedicated and understanding electorate, which emphatically does not come from Limbaugh polemics!
Sheriff’s deputies searched Friday for a serial killer blamed for four deaths over the past six days as terrified residents wondered who might be next.
Investigators have not figured out how the victims are linked or if they knew the man who shot them. So far, all they have is a sketch of a suspect and a possible getaway vehicle, said Cherokee County Sheriff Bill Blanton.
The latest victims were found in their family’s small furniture and appliance shop near downtown Gaffney around closing time Thursday. Stephen Tyler, 45, was killed, and his 15-year-old daughter was shot and seriously injured. Tyler’s wife, his older daughter and an employee found them in Tyler Home Center, County Coroner Dennis Fowler said.
NASA has tweeted in space, but now one of its astronauts is breaking a new space Twitter barrier. He’ll tweet from space in Spanish and English.
Astronaut Jose Hernandez grew up in a migrant farming family and didn’t learn English until he was 12. He is scheduled to fly aboard the space shuttle Discovery in August and tweet bilingually from orbit. It will be his first flight.
His twitter account is astro_jose. He has already started tweeting in both languages while training on the ground.
no Cap…first she claimed to be in college…now she claims to be in Grad. school….the story changes from day to day…..don’t waste your time…..
Cap: You know not the context of the discussion. This girl has been posting here for weeks and all she talks about is her superiority to know about the rest of us because she is a college student. I put that Rush thing up to illustrate that simply being a college student may not be the basis upon which to consider oneself an expert on all things political or historical. The post was to demonstrate that the act of being a college student alone is not sufficient evidence that one is smart or expert.
Not often we have the [pleasure of having you here during the week Cap. Good to see you.
I would address your remarks, but I am stupid and uninformed. Hence unqualified to do so.
Hope you will be here for the weekend.
chas
Jimmy,
If memory serves that is the ONLY part of Jefferson writing that went through without revision. The rest was watered down a bit.
chas
Cap, it’s nice to see that someone else here can’t stand Limbaugh either. What do you think of Sarah’s resignation? The top Republican strategist thinks she’s crashed and burned. Do you think she has a back-up plan? BTW, who is the senior in college?
(geez, you people don’t pay attention at all)
She’s getting ready to clean up this diaster coming our way. If he leaves enough of a country to clean up.
carolynro….you think the girl who called Rush is me? LOL I think that’s who Cap was referring to! Whatever gave you that idea? That student thinks Rush is smart, but I’m sure he doesn’t know that Rush has NO college whatsoever, and according to his mother he even failed a Ballroom Dance class, so he’s not even qualified to judge ballroom dancers, let alone politicians!
Cap was referring to the college student who called Limbaugh! Does that student post here? If so, who is it?
Well, John…..I found a Masters program for you….so you can help Sarah! George Washington University has an online Masters program:
Master of Professional Studies in Political Management
by The George Washington University
The George Washington University online Master’s degree in Political Management gives you a comprehensive understanding of campaign management, lobbying and government relations, issues management and advocacy, fundraising, corporate and trade association public affairs, polling and strategic research techniques, and political leadership. Unlike in political theory programs, you will learn how to apply your knowledge immediately with hands-on coursework that will boost your political career. With our 36-credit-hour master’s program, you will learn the techniques and ethics needed for success in a supportive, non-partisan environment.
It would take way more than a masters degree to fix this mess. Maybe you socialists continuely harressing her with false ethics complaints had something to do with this. You know you party of inclusion, openmindness? Is this the party you are so enthralled with? Oh yea your so bipartian I almost forgot. You would bash her whether she was gov or not.
NBC’s Andrea Mitchell just said that Palin is out of politics for good. She doesn’t seem well. I feel sort of sorry for her. She was hyperventilating through the whole speech today.
I’m not into Sarah bashing John – you don’t listen to anything I say – because you are into bashing everyone who doesn’t think just like you do. I feel sorry for you too, and other like you.

=============================
Thanks. Uh, nothing stupid and uninformed about you, my dear chas, than whom no one here knows more about the Republic and its framing and its values. Never saw you troll for compliments like that before, though, and you know you would have snared me!
Maybe here tomorrow; not sure. Fireworks tonight [yeah, the 3rd], and maybe jeeping tomorrow – looking for back road into Willie Boy site, this being the 100th anniversary of that racist “manhunt.” Gotta watch the Boston Pops on the Esplanade; Neil Diamond will be joining them.
Liz, I am saddened and confused by Ms Sarah’s announcement. I like her a great deal, and she is a true original. I hope the merciless attacks by faceless cretins and backstabbing by some who pretended to be allies have not pushed her over the edge. I note her elegant, eloquent, thoughtful announcement speech was done without teleprompter and was virtually flawless. impressive American is she.
You all have a great 4th – today [3rd] was the day General Washington assumed command of the Continetal Army in 1775, in Cambridge; there is a humble cannonade under a tree on the Harvard campus where it occurred.
Cap, I totally agree about your thoughts on Ms Sarah…by really listening to her speech she was gonna work for change from outside the Governor’s office. If anyone thinks she is done needs to listen to this speech for a second or third time and disect it. She is not done by any stretch.
Just because I don’t think the same as you , you come to this site and bash all who dissagree with you , then you try to turn it around on us. An old liberal trick. doen’t work here Liz. I don’t believe same as you but your the one who keeps coming here and starting a squabble. You socialist run the whole gov, what is it that you want here? Just to start trouble? Don’t ask why cause I don’t know why I actually pity you and your type. I’m a conservative I’m not compassionate. Maybe if you tell what you want then you can seek professional help.
I’ll be dreaming of the good old days !
Did I answer your question ?
Oh hello Liz,
My dress up girl !
Ver bees dow froline ?
Well OK Then I just say Hi and By if it’s all the same to you ?
O.K. …………..I am off to Twitter Land…………… Oh,
BTW, I am ………………………………. MacInFlorida….. just in case anybody wants to twitter,
Or Tweet, I forget what to say, I don’t get it, but thats o.k. because I’m having fun.
BTW Liz Colin Powell is jumping ship off the Bummer band wagon. He’s had it with the spending too. Just the beginning of big disaffections. Watch out Obummer!!!
Defections Brain freeze Sorry
Colin Powell,
Huh,
I would Love to see him debate Jon Voight.
About anything ……………..
Been there Done that ……. LOL
Isn’t that news Mac a moderate jumping ship?
Well in the Old days it actually would have made the evening news.
More news for a moderate to jump on a liberal ship.
Never did have anything to do with political leanings. I think you know that.
chas
Cap, beautiful. Smooches to you! Enjoy your Independence Day, sir. Hope to see you here soon.
Excerpted from Cap:
“You all have a great 4th – today [3rd] was the day General Washington assumed command of the Continetal Army in 1775, in Cambridge; there is a humble cannonade under a tree on the Harvard campus where it occurred.”
I think Sarah Palin is making a brilliant move. First, she defeats all the bogus ethics complaints. Then she shoves it. Since she IS ethical, she puts the state first and takes herself out of the picture so they can’t file any more harrassing complaints against her that waste everybody’s time and money. Now, she is FREE to raise money, network nationally, develop an international presence, and nobody can harrass her with these ridiculous expensive suits and the state is in good hands. I think she is just beginning. Personally I would like to see her run and win Senator first and then go for President. I think it is a smart move and she knows exactly what she is doing- she is faking out the fakers and haters. Go, Sarah!
Hi, carolynpro- we own a small business too; my heart goes out to you. I know the drill.
Several PC makers were including controversial Internet-filtering software with computers shipped in China on Thursday despite a government decision to postpone its plan to make such a step mandatory.
Beijing’s decision this week to delay the requirement that the filtering software — known as Green Dam — be pre-installed or supplied on disk with all computers sold in China averted a possible trade clash with the United States and Europe. But the move by some makers to include the software anyway could re-ignite complaints by Chinese Web users.
Also Thursday, a government newspaper said regulators will revive the plan to make Green Dam mandatory at some point, a move that would disappoint opponents who hoped the government would drop the effort.
John, you said….
I’m a conservative I’m not compassionate.
and that’s why we need liberals! (I am not a liberal, but you all think I am, so be it) I’m INDEPENDENT and I know we need both conservatives and liberals.
As for Sarah, she is not strong enough to survive the political waters. She has not been attacked half as bad as our president, but I think she knows she couldn’t take it if she was in his shoes, so she’s getting out while she can. I’m just surprised she didn’t serve out her term as Governor. I guess we can read all about it in her book.
liz you say we don’t get your sense of humor? I’m a conservative I’m not compassionate. TONGUE IN CHEEK You need smelling salts
BTW Liz if we attacked the Bummers childern like Sarah’s childern were attacked you would be screaming and you KNOW it.
I am attending a Fort Worth Tea Party like every Free American should be doing! We are at war inside our own Country! Our rights and freedoms are being taken away from us without our consent by a man who can not produce his own LIVE CERTIFIED BIRTH CERTIFICATE!!!!!!!
Sarah Palin and her children have been attacked in the mist vicious ways I have ever seen any public figure attacked, EVER. If you cannot see that, Liz, you cannot see reality. Oh. Wait. Hmmm.
Three women donned scuba masks and jumped into the waters off Oahu’s North Shore, floating inside a submerged cage as about a dozen sharks glided toward bloody fish scraps tossed into the water by a tour company.
Tourist Kim Duniec said the experience of coming eye-to-eye with sharks was exhilarating. “Their eyes were scary, but they were still graceful, absolutely beautiful,” the Beaver Dam, Wis., woman said.
Shark tours like this have become a popular visitor attraction in Hawaii, but a movement is gaining momentum to shut them down.
I just watched the segment on the swim club incident in Philadelphia. I have been a lifeguard for 30 years and it sounds like the swim club was not prepared to have this program at the club. They only had 4 lifeguards on staff when the children arrived which is definitely a safety issue. It sounds like because of the “last minute” arrangements of this program led to not being able to staff the pool properly. They would need at least another 6 more lifeguards to staff the pool program with the extra 65 children at the pool. The club probably realized it was a safety issue and was not able to accomodate this program. Ms. Wright said that they had 8 staff members there with the children, but that is irrelevant. Number one, how many of the 8 staff memebers were lifeguard, first-aid and CPR certified ? Number two they are not on the payroll at the facility which is a liability issue.
When a pool manager is given the schedule for the summer at a pool, they hire enough lifeguards to staff it properly with the programs on the schedule. Adding a program with 65 children is very difficult to do at the last minute because of staffing issues which then become serious safety issues. Maybe the staff members who work at the camp should become lifeguard, first-aid and CPR certified to prevent situations like this in the future.
The swim club should have thought about the magnitude of 65 children in the pool with only 4 lifeguards on staff for the day before they said “yes”.
