Getting back to the subject... http://www.judicialwatch.org/news/2009/mar/judicial-watch-uncovers-documents-detailing-pelosis-repeated-requests-military-travel In response to a series of requests for military aircraft, one Defense Department official wrote, "Any chance of politely querying [Pelosi's team] if they really intend to do all of these or are they just picking every weekend?...[T]here's no need to block every weekend 'just in case'..." The email also notes that Pelosi's office had, "a history of canceling many of their past requests." One DOD official complained about the "hidden costs" associated with the speaker's last minute changes and cancellations. "We have...folks prepping the jets and crews driving in (not a short drive for some), cooking meals and preflighting the jets etc." The documents include a discussion of House Ethics rules and Defense Department policies as they apply to the speaker's requests for staff, spouses and extended family to accompany her on military aircraft. In May 2008, for example, Pelosi requested that her husband join her on a Congressional Delegation (CODEL) into Iraq. The DOD explained to Pelosi that the agency has a written policy prohibiting spouses from joining CODEL's into combat zones. Documents obtained from the U.S. Army include correspondence from Speaker Pelosi's office requesting an Army escort and three military planes to transport Pelosi and other members of Congress to Cleveland, Ohio, for the funeral services of the late Rep. Stephanie Tubbs Jones. Pelosi noted in her letter of August 22, 2008, that such a request, labeled "Operation Tribute" was an "exception to standard policy." The documents also detail correspondence from intermediaries for Speaker Pelosi issuing demands for certain aircraft and expressing outrage when requested military planes were not available. "It is my understanding there are no G5s available for the House during the Memorial Day recess. This is totally unacceptable...The speaker will want to know where the planes are..." wrote Kay King, Director of the House Office of Interparliamentary Affairs. In a separate email, when told a certain type of aircraft would not be available, King writes, "This is not good news, and we will have some very disappointed folks, as well as a very upset peaker."

Pelosi: Congress Needs to 'Keep the Door Open' to Another Stimulus Package "The word of the day is confidence. Confidence in our markets, confidence in lending, confidence in our financial institutions," Pelosi said before suggesting the need for another rescue package during a press conference Tuesday following a meeting with top economists. Hard to beleive she really is that dumb. Doesn't she know that the porkulus scared the markets even more than the bailout? Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

That's some funny shit right there There are 180,681 employees and an additional 539,000+ retired and surviving spouses. Imagine running your company when you're paying pensions and benefits to 539,000 additional people who no longer contribute to the bottom line. It's not possible. Sure, the car makers agreed to this package...under threat of strikes. The greedy union members will bring this industry to its knees. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

Oh yeah. The wizard of home repair and maintenance decided this was the day to fix that leaky shower faucet. Long story short I managed to break the damned thing off at the junction. Of course the asshat who designed this house didn't think we'd need shutoff valves at the shower so we have no water until tomorrow morning. Note to self: Next time just have a pro fix it.

White House Budget Chief Lays Off Earmarks Though he was a senator when the 2009 budget groundwork was being laid, President Obama doesn't want to look back at the spending bill that has yet to pass, his top aide says. Next year, according to Orszag, when Obama is fully involved in the next budget from the start, earmarks will be handled differently. The Promise: "And, absolutely, we need earmark reform. And when I'm president, I will go line by line to make sure that we are not spending money unwisely." Meet the new boss...same as the old boss. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

FEMA is for disasters. This one in and of itself wasn't a disaster until the government got involved...starting with GWB and the bailouts. Recessions are painful, always have been. A company like GM has been teetering on the precipice for years. This recession will push them off the edge...and rightly so. Same for all the other weak, poorly run companies. News flash: It's gonna hurt. Let's start the healing process and work back to a better economy. Your wanting to place blame on the CEO's is correct. But free market economy's work. They require some regulations and there will always be ups and downs. To condemn the free market economy is like saying all black clergymen are idiots because Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton are. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne

Same can be said for the unions. It's a chicken or egg argument. If the stockholders are OK with the comp package who are we to disagree? The underlying theme to these arguments is capitalism v. socialism. Current government would have us believe that it's the evil capitalists who cause these problems. And now they've injected themselves into the equation with the bailouts. They're starting to dictate how these companies are to be run. A recipe for disaster. Please don't dent the planet.

Of course Lemmings don't jump off cliffs... that's just another myth to go with you one about socialised medicine not working..... it's not always perfect but neither system is. We work with the best that we have. How many people are refused insurance during to existing medical conditions? How many people would be charged very high premiums because of existing medical conditions? I understand your thought process. Now everyone will pay that person's premiums. Just like I get to pay my neighbor's mortgage. The collective. One of the principles of the framers of the constitution was the highest level of prosperity occurs when there is a free-market economy and a minimum of government regulations. Prosperity depends upon a climate of wholesome stimulation with four basic freedoms in operation: The Freedom to try. The Freedom to buy. The Freedom to sell. The Freedom to fail. I think it's a slippery slope we're on right now. Remove the freedom to fail and the other three will soon follow. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne
