This just in: A judge recently asked a government attorney what he would do if he (the attorney) found himself on the Do Not Fly list. After much “hemming and hawing” the attorney was forced to admit that they wasn’t anything he could do other than hope someone noticed the mistake.
This is the type of thing that makes the average American think we have too much government. The reality is that we just have too much Department of Homeland Security.

I have often mentioned that it’s the middle class, not the rich, that create jobs. They are the customers. No customers means no jobs. Here is a link to a billionaire that apparently reads my blog.
Everyone in the country should watch this. I know, I know…Bill O’Reilly says he will hire more people to work for him if his taxes are lower. The truth is, he makes more money by just reading the script Rupert Murdoch hands him, regardless of the tax rate.
On the Romney Is Such a Goat page…
Romney blames Obama for not creating jobs even though millions of jobs have been created during Obama’s administration.
Romney can’t remember a bullying/anti-gay event he was involved with even though everyone else there remembers it clearly.
Romney wants a “clean” fight and is against a proposed ad that links Obama to controversial reverend Wright – even though Romney made that link himself only a few weeks ago. Romney claims he didn’t even know about this ad; a statement not even Republicans believe.
Romney’s desire for a “clean” fight is odd, considering that he just spent over $200 million vilifying his GOP opponents.
Here’s the hidden truth. If Romney wants to talk about Obama’s church, then Obama can talk about the Mormon church – you know, the one that thinks a traditional marriage is a stable full of female reproductive organs.
Romney wants to lower the debt but he plans on increasing defense spending nearly a trillion higher than even the Pentagon is asking for.
Romney is anti-gay marriage, anti-marijuana, anti-taxation but pro tax cuts for the rich, pro oil subsidies and pro more money spent on the machines of war.
Romney blames Obama for the debt and fails to recognize that Obama is spending far less than the last Republican president. He is also ignoring the fact that most of the debt is Bush’s.
As far as Romney and Foreign policy go, this article about sums it up.
This guy is an embarrassment…

A recent study found that Americans are anti-regulation until they are confronted with the details.
For example, if you ask “Should we cut back on FDA inspections?” The majority says no.
Paul Ryan is hoping that the Supreme Court shoots down The Affordable Health Care Act. When asked what he would replace it with…nothing came to mind.
Onward…
We’ve all heard of the Filibuster. This is a tool a minority in Congress can use to prevent the majority from doing anything. This is now being challenged as unconstitutional. This will be fought by only one party…the Republican party. Since Obama has been in office, they have increased the use of this by a factor of 10. This is how they keep Obama from creating jobs.
Here is a question I’d love to hear Romney ask: “Where are all the jobs the Republican party is keeping you from creating?”
Time for a cute Gif…

Have you ever wondered why people believe what they see on Fox News? I’ve always attributed it to either simple mindedness or laziness. However, today’s quote solves the mystery.
Here is your quote for the day: “It is easier to fool people than it is to convince them that they have been fooled.” – Mark Twain
This is something Fox News understands all too well.
Here is how you can save the world – make sure everyone you know watched the video at the start of this blog; the one about the middle class being the job creators. If everyone understood that, there would be no Republican party.
Up, up and away…
