Okay.
So it now looks like congressional leaders are zeroing in on an 11th hour deal to avert the fiscal cliff (a term aptly coined by Bernancke).
Taxes will go up it´s just a matter of what the income cutoff point will be.
And word is that it won´t be $200,000 in annual income or even $250,000 or even

I´ve not seen the movie yet and am chagrined to admit I´ve not read Victor Hugo´s novel nor seen the broadway play... but given the accolades I´ve read about it from sources I find credible and inspiring, I´m not surprised in the least that feminists would have issues with it.
Stacy Wolf is a Princeton professor who studies gender and sexuality in musicals and she´s got her panties in a wad...

"Chuck Colson did not experience a ´jailhouse conversion.´ On the contrary, you could argue that he went to prison as a result of becoming a Christian."

My post title says President Obama has been tactless of late. That’s not true. He’s always been tactless. Remember him denigrating handicapped people on the Jay Leno show? Lately, though, the President has upped his game. Last week, shortly before the Sandy Hook shooting that saw myriad children die, Obama “jokingly” told Barbara Walters why he really ran for president:

As far as the New York Times and the rest of American Progressives are concerned, those Americans who insist that they want to exercise their Second Amendment rights for self-protection are delusional and, quite possibly, nascent psychopathic killers. Guns are bad. Really, really bad. The evidence is irrelevant because . . . yes, guns are bad.
Except that guns aren’t always bad. While your average Progressive understands that they’re obviously a bad idea when people use them to protect themselves, they’re a very good — indeed, an innovative idea — when Africans come together with guns to protect elephants.

Although Maine’s mill towns voted heavily against gay marriage this November, my informants at the Verso Paper Mill in Jay suggest that there’s a thick stratum of sentiment that favored the idea I speak here of bitter homophobes who wish see the gayetariat suffer from marital bondage. Some speak plainly of wishing gays to suffer from the same unblissful domesticity that torments them.
There’s an abundance of history which supports their hopes. A sixteenth-century Englishman sums up their view in blunt terms:
“To hang or wed; both hath an hour;
Hanging is the better of the twain, Sooner done, and shorter pain"

Imagine you are working for a company that is going bankrupt, but everyone you work with and your bosses are getting pay raises. Seem absurd? Not if you work for the failing federal government because President Obama has happily decreed that Vice President Biden, members of Congress and most federal workers are getting raises for 2013.

As America prepares to celebrate the ringing in of 2013 and the reelection of a Marxist as President, I think we should also review the EMP threat before America’s lights go out. Notice, I did not say “if.” It’s a matter of “when.” I’ve had many on both sides of the aisle ridicule my statements on the threats from Russia and China. Well, the despots may have the last laugh. Add to those two, Iran and North Korea, as well as a string of smaller despotic countries and you have a threat unparalleled in history just waiting to bring America

The truth is we need real professionals to implement security devices and techniques in our schools to at least make it more difficult for homicidal maniacs to ply their trade in our schools. Arming teachers who are capable and have the guts to confront evil, perhaps even paying them more to attend seminars to train in procedures, would be a first step in making our schools more secure. I am talking about seminars taught by professional SWAT and Special Forces instructors, not incompetent boobs like Janet Napolitano. We can’t prevent school shootings, but we can damn well minimize the damage

“Tax The Rich” Thrown Out In Socialist France – “It’s Unfair”

France’s Socialist President, Francois Hollande, had his hat handed to him when France’s highest court revoked his 75% tax on the rich, saying that “it’s unfair.” The court took issue with the way it discriminated between households of one versus two earners.
France’s budget deficit is approximately 85 billion euro and the tax would have brought in only about 200 million euro… a tiny drop in a very large bucket. But as we know, bloated Socialist governments know no bounds when it comes to satisfying their insatiable greed and intense desire to enslave the people.
