my opinion of the United Way.

They do good with some of the the money.
The question is whose good?

"For months, the United Way of Central Carolinas board said Gloria Pace King was worth every penny of her controversial $1.2 million pay package."

But, I thought

they said "they" only do jobs that the citizens won't do

About 30 cars were lined up in front of Howard Industries� Laurel plant today filled with people looking for jobs.

Local paper
�It started Monday afternoon when people started hearing the news,� Hosey said. �Tuesday morning, we definitely have had an increase in traffic from people interested in jobs at Howard

told you I wasn't a plumber.

Two or three times, in fact.

Window man either

Well, we'll see how I do as a brick mason. I've moved GF's laundry room and need to install a dryer vent through a brick wall

I wonder

what brought on the change from Segall's initial plan

"Next month, Joshua Segall will head to Denver to drum up interest in his congressional campaign, but fellow Democrat Bobby Bright will be at home in Alabama, stumping for votes and donations in his bid to go to Washington."

Maybe he figured out that his support needed to be the voters in his district and not the liberal powers that be at the Democrats national convention.

Instead of pressing the flesh at what would have been his first convention, District 3 Dem�ocratic challenger Joshua Segall is on the campaign trail here in Alabama.

What makes the ICE

raid in Laurel Mississippi so interesting, besides the 600+ possible illegal immigrants detained is this line that is missing from most reports that follow

"In 2002, then-Gov. Ronnie Musgrove called a special Legislative session in which lawmakers approved a $31.5 million, taxpayer-backed incentive plan aimed at helping Howard Industries expand its operations. The state required the company to create 2,000 new jobs - 700 by 2007 and another 1,300 by 2012."

Yep, the citizens paid for a company to create jobs for illegals

Valdosta State University,

part of the University System of Georgia is still taking it on the chin, public relations wise, with this ad by FIRE

I don't know what bothers me more, the apparently over the top response by the University or the defenders of the school in the comments, who by the way, remind me of the ones who support law enforcement no matter how egregious their conduct.

"They" can say what they want

but despite claims that Bobby Bright, Josh Segall, and other "conservative democrats (oxymoron?) running for office in Alabama would be "independent", the Liberals are fully in charge of the national party.

Now all together, Where does the power lay with the Senate and the House?
That's right, the committee heads.
And how are the committee heads generally selected?
That's right, Seniority.
And who holds the most seniority?
That's right, the old liberal guard, led by Kennedy, Pelosi, Shumer, et al

I would suggest

that along with Perry as a county where the Justice department is to keep an eye out for corrupt voting practices, they include Russell and environs where things disappear quietly under the rug
