Reid: "Millionaire Job Creators Are Like Unicorns" ... They "Don't Exist"
Reid: "Millionaire Job Creators Are Like Unicorns" ... They "Don't Exist"
Reid: "The Republicans say the richest of the rich in our country, even those who make millions every year, shouldn’t contribute more to get our economy back on track. They call our plan, time after time, a tax on job creators, and I say so-called “job creators.” Because I say that, Mr. President, every shred of evidence contradicts this red herring. For example, there have been many outlets, but I’ll concentrate on one. National Public Radio went looking for one of these fictitious millionaire job creators. A reporter reached out to the business groups and a tax lobby in the Republican Congress hoping to interview one of these millionaires. Days ticked by with no luck. Many of our job creators are like unicorns, they're impossible to find and don't exist. That’s because only a tiny fraction of people making more than a million dollars, probably less than one percent, are actually small business owners and only a tiny fraction of that tiny fraction is a traditional job creator."This is beyond absurd. Put simply if a business that is privately owned and had $3000-$4000 in average gross daily receipts then the owner would have an "income" of over $1,000,000 a year. Thus making them for tax purposes a millionaire. This is true even if the owner only takes home $0.01 himself. Before anyone counters that those people would not count...these are exactly the people the Dems and Obama was wanting to raise taxes on; something like 70% of those affected by proposed tax increases fall in to this category. Nearly every grocery store, fast food restaurant, doctor's office, etc.. are owned by "technical" millionaires who create jobs.

Roger L. Simon - Explaining Newt
Roger Simon's take on Newt via PJMedia
A good portion of the right-wing punditocracy, Beltway sorts especially, appears to harbor a deep dislike of Newt Gingrich. They can’t believe he is currently the frontrunner for the Republican nomination and are doing everything in their power to enlighten the great unwashed about the multiple inadequacies of this man and knock some sense into them (us) before it is too late.
Now I am not a Beltway person. I am something even worse — a Hollywood & Vine person — so everything I say is suspect and should be. But allow me to chime in on why Newt is attractive to some of us at this juncture.
Let’s begin here: America is in a slough of despond. In fact, it’s in close to the worst shape it’s been since the Great Depression. Negativity rules the land. Few people are happy or optimistic. Basically, this once great nation is asleep.
And we have a president who wants us to stay there, who is banal, irritating, humorless, reactionary, self-righteous, and narcissistic all at once. He hasn’t said one interesting thing or proposed one creative idea since being in office.
Unfortunately, the Republican candidates aren’t much better. Romney, Perry, Santorum, Bachmann, Huntsman, even Paul, are no more than critics of a system gone moribund. They do not inspire us. Their ideas, even when worth investigating (flat tax, etc.), are no more than rehashes of proposals we have heard for decades... Read More

Congresswoman Barbara Lee Sounds the Alarm on the Voter Identification Laws
This really irritates me. Is she completely ignorant or is she deliberately being deceptive. I vote that it is both.
Running Marathons May Cause Permanent Heart Damage, Study Says
I see this study or ones like it hit the news every so often. This is non-sense (at least the journalists take on the study). If this had any validity then endurance athletes would have a higher level of heart related problems, when in fact the opposite it true.
...Scientists say that running marathons may cause permanent heart damage, the Daily Mail reported. A recent study found that high-endurance activities can result in scarring of the right ventricle and in turn increase the risk of heart complications. The study examined 40 elite athletes with no history of heart problems who were planning to compete in an upcoming endurance event, like a marathon... Read more
MythBusters Cannonball Experiment Gone Wrong... Hits Houses and Car in D...
They always say don't try this at home. I think they should have avoided trying it in these peoples homes. YIKES! FYI: I luv the show
Glenn Beck on Newt Gingrich
I really think Beck is going overboard on some of his Newt criticisms. On the radio this morning (12/7/2011)he explicitly called him a "Big government progressive." That is just silly non-sense. Is Newt as conservative as Bachmann? No, but he sure as heck is not a "progressive"
Here is the Beck had with Newt on his radio show. I thought the interview was very tough but fair. It is what he has said about him after that bothers me. We can not afford a circular firing squad on the GOP side.
