The giant farmers like Con Agra ,and food marketeers like Walmart, Kroger and Senator Grassley are laughing all the way to the bank as we quibble about some unemployed or working poor getting a few hundred dollars a month of food stamps.

I am glad the Patriots are just a short drive from Bristol CN so ESPN can give us a daily blow by blow on the training camp and daily drama.

Who cares?

It is too bad that he did pull his little stunt back during the days of the "Greatest Generation ". He would have met his fate like Ethel and Julius Rosenburg, the Electric chair.

Why hasn't Obama come out and say that this was a terrorist act?

How many times have I seen a door man cowtow to a customer? Get use to being a doorman.

How about all those legacy scholarships that are out there if you can prove that you are a descendant of some white guy or another.

Most illegal aliens are at least 25 % white or native American.

The FAA, like most federal agencies can function just well on a 10% decrease in personnel. That's what the sequester does. I worked with the FAA for over 40 years and have seen salaries go from $14,000 a year to over $200,000 (in the busy facilities) and time on position (working airplanes) drop to below 4 hours a day. That's about $200 an hour. So can a controller work an extra 24 minutes a day instead of watching TV, you bet thay can. The sequester may prove that we can actually do more with less, which flies in the face of a lot of politicians.
