TODD PALIN PIMP? Was it part of the sex coverup?
Time to investigate Yet?
This culture of (sexual) corruption IS ENDEMIC. Bringing charges against Todd Palin would be a good start to demonstrating a commitment to bringing an end to this “culture of corruption.”
One final note. It is women speaking out who are demanding accountability. Diana Suarez is the prostitute in Colombia who spoke out! Aurelia Fedenisn is the whistle blower in the cover-up by the Inspector General’s office. Shailey Tripp is the woman who has spoken out regarding the involvement of Todd Palin.

2nd Amendment: TODDLERS KILL MORE AMERICANS THAN TERRORISTS HAVE so far this year.
While this analysis focuses on children, another, equally accurate,
headline could read: “U.S. Gun Culture Kills More Americans Than
Terrorists Worldwide.” In 2010, 13,186 people died in terrorist attacks
worldwide, while 31,672 people were killed with firearms in America
alone, reports CNN’s Samuel Burke.
Of course as we know while this holocaust has been taking place at the hands of the pre-school set, the actual terrorists have only managed to take out five Americans this year.

the head last week, park officials said.

Some are insisting that wiretapping Americans is legal. Let it go to court for a hearing then.
Appearing on MSNBC Monday morning, Guardian journalist Glenn Greenwald smacked down “White House talking points” he said were being repurposed by “Morning Joe” co-host Mika Brzezinski, saying the National Security Agency’s spying programs are flatly unconstitutional and that her defense of them was misleading.
“Quickly, I just want an answer yes or no,” Brzezinski began. “Isn’t it the case that reviewing of emails or any wiretapping cannot take place without an additional warrant from a judge and a review? It’s not like there’s haphazard probing into all of our personal emails. Can we put this into context so we understand exactly what’s going on?”
Greenwald didn’t even hesitate, blowing past Mika’s request for a one-word response

WAGES and HOPE for the middle class is SINKING fast.
If only politicians would stop blathering about the middle class and do something for those who are now poorer than ever. If only people could get full-time jobs. Feel all that freedom trickling down:
The economic "recovery" just keeps getting worse for the average worker: U.S. employers squeezed their employees even harder than usual in the first quarter, leading to the biggest drop in hourly pay on record.
We should be raising the minimum wage and encouraging unions but Republicans are doing the opposite.

WA DC is shutting down. Congress stopped legislating!!
Conservative Republicans in our nation’s capital have managed to
accomplish something they only dreamed of when Tea Partiers streamed
into Congress at the start of 2011: They’ve basically shut Congress
down. Their refusal to compromise is working just as they hoped: No jobs
agenda. No budget. No grand bargain on the deficit. No background
checks on guns. Nothing on climate change. No tax reform. No hike in the
minimum wage. Nothing so far on immigration reform.

Obamacare: Insurance Rates are lowering.
Americans who bought individual health plans in 2012 saved $2.1 billion
thanks to Obamacare consumer protections that limit how much insurers
can profit off of Americans’ premiums, according to a new study by the Kaiser Family Foundation (KFF). The vast majority of those savings stem from individual health plan providers lowering the premiums they charge Americans in an effort to comply with the reform law.

Todd Palin Pimp Update - Final request before lawsuit
Thus I am asking that you produce the statement of David Chaney, redacted
to keep any information that is confidential, private. Although I
have never been told this, I assume his statement confirmed Shailley
Tripp’s or there would be no need for an investigation. While I do not
waive my rights to receive the documents requested when charges are
filed, or the investigation is concluded, it seems that producing
information that affirms the statements of Ms. Tripp would in no way
prejudice any investigation. Just to make my position crystal clear,
if Homeland Security would produce a redacted statement of David Chaney
that simply confirms that it was Todd Palin who introduced him to
Shailey Tripp, and that Mr. Chaney went to Shailey Tripp, and received
from her sexual services, I will refrain from filing suit at this time.
These statements of David Chaney should be easily produced, and would
avoid substantial fees for me and for the government. It would also
confirm the statement of Shailey Tripp which was the primary goal of the
initial FOIA request.

The Real IRS Scandal is exposed - Lawrence O'Donnell
As everybody who watches the Last Word well knows Lawrence has been the
lone voice reporting that the IRS should not be giving 501 tax exempt
status to ANY of these political groups. And now Darrell Issa's
Oversight Committee has FINALLY recognized a truth that might just mean
that ALL of these Tea Party groups, and even Democratic ones, will soon
lose any tax exempt status.

RESET THE BUDGET DEBATE: 6 charts to consider
The conversation in Washington continues to focus on deficit reduction, even in the face of sluggish economic growth and unemployment continuing to be painfully high. The argument in favor of immediate deficit reduction, however, has lost nearly all of its standing, as revealed in a new report by the Center for American Progress’s Michael Linden.
Three years ago, those pushing austerity and deficit reduction pointed to dire warnings about the budget outlook. That picture has since changed dramatically. In fact, the projections look pretty good:

Conservatives: Got NO TAX status but still a victim
Tuesday, June 4, was a bit bizarre up on Capitol Hill. We had Tea Party
victims who hadn't actually been hurt—who actually got the unjustified tax exempt status they sought—testifying
against the IRS in one hearing, where the IRS, by law, was not allowed
to respond. In another hearing we had ZERO victims of actual criminal
sexual assault and rape testifying, where only the leaders of the
command structure that failed them were heard from. Together, the two
hearings exemplify a fundamental fact of American politics: Conservative
claims of being victimized are wildly out of all proportion— both
compared to any actual suffering they've experienced, and compared to
the actual suffering of others, whose voices really are suppressed.

Out of Control Student Loan Debt
You've probably seen this chart before, but it's worth seeing again:
Student loan debt is just flatly out of control. I understand why this
has happened, and I understand why it's hard to get a handle on, but
we're going to regret it if we don't do something about this. We're
training a whole generation to be wary of going to college, and for
those who do, we're forcing them to start out their lives living under a
mountain of debt. This is a recipe for disaster.

Republicans misuse Religion quote to justify NO Vote on Food Stamps.
MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell took Tennessee Rep. Stephen Fincher to task for using the bible to justify making billions in cuts to the food stamp program, while, as a member of the House Agriculture Committee, attempting to justify the millions of dollars he receives in federal farm subsidies.
These Republicans love welfare for the wealthiest among us, but if you're a poor starving child in America, well, you'd better go find yourself a job. O'Donnell also took the members of Congress to task as a whole for refusing to do something about the massive conflicts of interest we see like this one, where they're allowed to vote on policies that are going to benefit themselves financially. He's absolutely correct that it ought to be illegal, but it's not.

WHY SHOULD POLITICAL GROUPS Pay NO TAXES? They should pay.
Rep. Jim McDermott (D-WA) on Tuesday questioned why tea party groups were seeking to be subsidized by the government.
“But as I listen to this discussion, I’d like to remind everyone what we are talking about here,” he continued. “None of your organizations were kept from organizing or silenced. We are talking about whether or not the American taxpayers would subsidize your work. We are talking about a tax break.”

Obamacare SAVES 36 Million to CALIF small businesses so far
Sy Muckerjee from Think Progress
reports that big health insurers, Anthem and Blue Cross/Blue Shield,
have been ordered refund over $36 million in overcharges to small
businesses, thanks to ‘Evil Obamacare.’ And that’s just in the state of
California. A provision of the The Patient Protection And Affordable Care Act
requires insurance companies to spend at least 80 percent of the
premiums they charge customers on actually providing health care.
Imagine that! What could possibly be better for small business owners —
who are often operating on a shoe string — than for them to be able to
afford health insurance for themselves and their employees?

Sarah Palin - Talking Stupid again.
The rules about which Palin complains were created as a result of the Organ Transplant Act of 1984.
That act was passed as a result of problems that arose because as
medical technology developed to make organ transplantation feasible,
there became a shortage of human organs to meet the demand. People had
begun selling organs, and paying commissions of as much as $50,000 to
the people who procured the organs.
-The rules governing transplants were developed during the Reagan Presidency. The Obama administration has nothing to do with the case of this little girl. Sarah Palin is using a tragic situation for her typical bashing of President Obama. There is no attempt to help solve a problem of too few organs available to too many who need organs. Sounds like Sarah wants to decide which person (people) get the limited organ(s). Her complaint as VP wanna be was that Govment was getting into too much stuff. Now Sarah is complaining that Govment is not telling folks to give this girl a lung instead of giving it to an adult. (Govement interference is Govment interference Sarah.)
Thus the gut-wrenching reality is that children die from Cystic Fibrosis every day. Even those who have undergone a lung transplant will die of the disease. Because there are not enough organs for transplant, the inevitable result is that decisions must be made by someone about who is the most likely to get the greatest benefit from a transplanted organ. It is an extremely complex and agonizing decision for anyone to make. Every doctor would recommend saving each of his/her patients, but not enough organs are available. Somehow the decision of who gets an organ must be made by someone other than the treating physician.

STOP ALLOWING POLITICAL GROUPS to get NO TAX STATUS for Social Welfare reasons!!
It is time to take away NO TAX STATUS for political groups who are not put together to help people in real and honest ways. REPEAL THE 1959 INTERPRETATION of the law. (I am also taking away the NO TAXES POLICY for Churches that push politics! The vote Republican or YOU WILL GO TO HELL Group should not get tax free status.)
Let's get back to the original intent of the law, WHAT THE FOUNDING FATHER'S INTENDED! (The original law was written 100 years ago and it was written for groups that help with Social Welfare groups that benefit our society.)

Republican JESUS's 10 commandments
There are many good ones so I just chose a sampling from the middle. Sounds very appropriate.
6. You shall not murder unless they are Muslim. Or gay. Or abortion doctors. Or government workers. Or black. Or whatever group is currently out of favor with mine chosen White (not white, White) People.
7. You shall not commit adultery and get caught during an election year.

YOU MIGHT BE A CONSERVATIVE IF...
If you believe this crap - YOU ARE A CONSERVATIVE (and I feel sorry for you)
1. You’re irate over the president taking so many vacation days on the
taxpayer’s dime (61 thus far), but you thought George W. Bush earned
every minute of his leisure time (196 days at the same point in his
presidency).
2: You’re happy with your 40 hour work week, paid vacations and
company-provided healthcare, but you’re strongly anti-union, because
those commies haven’t done anything for you lately. (Retirement benefits too)

Student LOANS: Solutions: GOP, Elizabeth Warren and President Obama
What are the various options? I like Elizabeth Warren's solution of make student loans at the same rate that Big Banks get which is about 1 %. At this day and age, we need an educated workforce.
The worst possibility is the Republican plan to double the current Student loan rate to 7%. People OWE OVER A TRILLION DOLLARS ON STUDENT LOANS ALREADY. Piling on the debt before they can get into the job market is wrong, it is setting so many up for financial ruin.
