WHAT IS GOING on in Wisconsin will come soon to a neighborhood near you.


All governments, city, state and federal, are running out of money. Every night on the news stories of budget deficits abound.
This could be a good thing. Bloated salaries and outrageous benefits for public sector workers was easier to overlook when the economy was rosy, and the impending disaster "can" was being kicked down the road.
It is time to confront the issues that are sending almost all governments into bankruptcy.
The silver lining?
There are more of us in the private sector than there are in the public sector. Believe me, that is not for lack of trying by people who continue to expand government programs and bureaus within the bureaus. But what politicians seem to overlook is that no government jobs can exist without some people in the private sector paying taxes to support them.
Now is the perfect time to get those who have not been paying attention to start taking notice.
Many of us make a certain salary yet are supporting our counterparts in the government who make more than we do.
Not only that, but we are responsible for their retirement and health care for life. They may participate toward those benefits, but it has been minimal.
It is time for them to join the rest of us and make the sacrifice.http://www.marinij.com/opinion/ci_17476216

Digging into a Empty Wallet.

Bailey:
You've borrowed everything from your retirement. You've maxed out all of your credit cards. You've got no pay raises on your job for years. And you thought, I will be able to catch up as soon as the economy  gets better. Then just when you think you see a small ray of sunlight, here come the oil companies pushing up the gas prices again. The people who run these companies must ether be mighty stupid or have already made enough money off us, that they are not worried about killing the goose that lays the golden egg. Because that is exactly what they are doing! The average American citizen can't dig money out of a empty wallet. Does anyone remember the oil well leaking millions of gallons of oil into the ocean? Did that drive up the oil prices? Hell no! They seem to pick and choose certain events just to jack up the prices.

It's the Unions' Last Stand, and Taxpayers Must Fight the Good Fight


The battle raging in Wisconsin has huge implications for all American taxpayers, who will be forced to shoulder the burden of out of control government spending at the state, local and federal level. The bosses -- either from the union or the Democratic Party -- who depend on a steady flow of union dues into their political coffers are desperate because they understand the stakes. 
So, too, must taxpayers.
This fight will decide whether union bosses can bleed taxpayers dry no matter what happens in elections, or whether electing limited-government conservatives can result in meaningful change.
Union membership is in free-fall in the private economy. In 2010, private sector union membership reached 6.9 percent, a record low. That means 93.1 percent of workers in the private economy are not union members – a higher level than when FDR signed the Wagner Act into law in 1935. It makes sense, because workers have seen unions cripple industries like autos, steel and airlines. They’ve seen union bosses make such outrageous demands that companies end up in bankruptcy and workers lose their jobs. Most workers would simply prefer to negotiate their own salary and benefits than to let union bosses destroy more companies and industries.http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2011/02/21/unions-stand-taxpayers-fight-good-fight/

Walker: ‘Democracy Doesn’t Come by Hiding Out’

Wisconsin GOP Gov. Scott Walker Thursday told Fox News he is personally appealing to Democratic state lawmakers – who fled the state to circumvent voting on a budget bill that would curb union rights – to return and participate in the legitimate process, or law enforcement might again “seek them out.”

Saudis Fault Obama on Egyptian Crisis


A telephone conversation between President Obama and King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia on Wednesday was unusually tense, a senior Obama administration official confirmed to Fox News.
The discord arises from Saudi displeasure over the Obama administration's handling of the Egyptian crisis. "They have talked about [the necessity of] a dignified exit for Mubarak," said the official. "And they are judging, in their own minds…that we have pushed Mubarak to the side."

Bailey: "Maybe the last meeting Obama had with the King he didn't bow down low enough for him? Maybe this time he needs to get on his knees".

Gallup: Obama Approval Hits New Low on Deficit

President Barack Obama’s approval rating for his handling of the federal deficit has fallen to a new low — just 27 percent of Americans now approve, down from 32 percent in November, while 68 percent disapprove, a Gallup poll reveals.

President Obama, Gallup, deficitBack in April 2009, 49 percent of those polled said they approved of Obama’s handling of the deficit.

The new Gallup poll discloses that Americans feel Obama is doing much better on international issues than on domestic ones.

The poll was conducted Feb. 2-5, as the Obama administration was seeking to deal with the turmoil in Egypt. Nearly half of respondents, 47 percent, said they approve of Obama’s handling of the turmoil in Egypt, while 32 percent disapprove and 21 percent have no opinion.

On Afghanistan, 47 percent approve of his handling of the situation, and 46 percent disapprove.

Regarding Obama’s energy policy, 43 percent approve, and 42 percent disapprove. But 54 percent disapprove of his performance regarding taxes, while 42 percent approve.

Obama also scores poorly on two other domestic issues: healthcare policy (Americans disapprove 56 percent to 40 percent), and the economy (60 percent to 37 percent).

Republicans give Obama particularly low marks for his handling of domestic issues. Just 12 percent approve of the president on healthcare policy, 9 percent approve of Obama on the economy, and 7 percent think he is doing a good job with the deficit.

Among Democrats, they give Obama the highest rating for his handling of foreign affairs (75 percent), and healthcare policy (73 percent).
Republicans (34 percent) and Independents (47 percent) both give him their highest approval rating for his handling of the situation in Afghanistan.

“President Obama has failed to build public support in recent months for his handling of major U.S. economic matters,” Gallup observes.

“His approval rating on the economy is no better than it was last fall, and his approval rating on the federal budget deficit — a top issue for Republicans in Congress since the midterm elections — is even worse. His broadest support on the issues comes on foreign policy matters, most notably the situation in Egypt, but even on these, his approval ratings register just below 50 percent.”

Super bowl Screw Up

Everyday I see things happening that brings America down lower and lower. But when you have a so called role model get up in front of a audience of millions and screw up our National Anthem that is about as low as you can go! People like this is what our kids are falling all over themselves to imitate. Our kids look up to these people and make them into heroes and then try to dress up and act like just like them. That's really scary  isn't it. And what is even scarier is the fact these same kids will grown up and become America's future leaders.

The People of Egypt Were Abandoned By the U.N. For 30 Years

There is one main reason why the Obama administration misjudged Egypt entirely – they cannot get their facts straight. For the last two years they have been busy defending the U.N. as an effective vehicle for promoting U.S. interests, in the name of engagement.

But for the three decades of Hosni Mubarak’s reign the U.N. has dedicated its human rights apparatus to demonizing the state of Israel and ignoring the human rights victims in Egypt and across the Arab world. As dissatisfaction and unrest have grown in the region over his presidency, the Obama administration failed to recognize the U.N.’s gross negligence or to take responsibility for ensuring an alternative vehicle to promote democracy. Instead, it legitimized the U.N.’s top human rights body, the Human Rights Council (HRC), by joining it.

Notwithstanding the meltdown in Egypt, Esther Brimmer, Assistant Secretary of State for the Bureau of International Organization Affairs picked Tuesday to give her evidence for the success of the Obama foreign policy of engagement with the U.N. and its human rights world.

At a speech to the Brookings Institution she said: “Since the United States joined the Human Rights Council, it has not held a single special session on Israel.” Except that the U.S. took its seat on the Council September 14, 2009, and the Council held its sixth special session on Israel on October 15-16, 2009. It was a rather unforgettable session, actually, since it was the occasion the Council endorsed the notorious Goldstone report.

It is a mystery why the person in charge of international organizations in this country has no clue what the actual record is of the Council, but here is a short synopsis for her edification:http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2011/02/03/people-egypt-abandoned-years/


Brewer Slams New York City Mayor for Phoenix Gun Show Sting

Michael Bloomberg's undercover investigation at a gun show in Arizona must be a result of the extra time the mayor has on his hands from running the well-oiled machine that is New York City, says Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer.
