  1. Yeah, J Bird, THAT's the problem. Its all racism. That's why we are $19 trillion in debt.

    Isn't it about time you headed to the street corner to mug someone? Always good to get your work out of the way, first thing in the morning.

  2. Mindless Cuts comes from mindless spending so great that no amount of taxation can pay for it. Cut up Visclosky's credit card that has no limits. And tell him to shut up - no one is listening any more.

  3. I love it when they say the rich should pay "their fair share". "Fair" to these people is defined as "never high enough". If the country is spending more than it can afford, then the rich aren't paying enough so raise their taxes. They will get raised in Jan - its going to happen to make pass the compromise. I promise you that 2 years from now, the debt will be up to $19 trillion and the same people will say the rich have to pay more to pay their fair share. It will not end until most of the wealth is taxed away. Then guess what, the expenses like Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security, along with the trillions in waste, will have a hatchet taken to them or we'll default on our treasuries. You can take every penny from the richest 2%, but we'll still end up having to cut by trillions. A trillion is a thousand billions. Just to cut a few trillion is to wipe out Medicare, Medicaid, and social security. But lets take a chunk from the rich, which is chump change compared to our exploding debt. And they will have less to invest. That ain't good, folks.

    The great lie is pitting those who are not rich against those who made it and are rich. The rich are not the enemy, folks. They are paying most of the taxes. Its our pitiful leadership getting as many people dependent on the government as possible. They therefore control and wield the most power over us. AND they get voted in time and again.

    This AFL-CIO stooge is just feeding the class warfare lines and the gullible are eating it up.

  4. Another example of why unions are becoming extinct.

    1) They sucked dues money out of the pockets of these workers all the way up to the unemployment line.
    2) Meanwhile, the union rep, shows up and says "hey, casino, stop doing that." The casino says, shut your yap and does what its responsible to do...to make money. The union rep, after getting a nice little blurp in the newspaper about how much the union "cares", gets back in her car and goes home, but her paycheck will be forthcoming.... the union folks always seem to do better keeping themselves employed than anyone else.
    3) The union "protection" these workers pay for a joke. The union couldn't even submit a request to appear before the commission before the deadline. The union rep nonetheless says how bad bad bad the casino is, then goes home. Many more paychecks for her in the future...not so much for the workers she "represents".

    Unions - should have gone away a long time ago, but there are sucker workers born every minute who continue to feed them.

  5. INDYCARMIKE, I don't know that I have ever read anyone so hate-filled and insulting against those with whom he disagrees. You take absolute, black and white liberal positions and for those who don't accept it hook, line, and sinker exactly as you dictate, they are morons. There is no middle ground with you. Its unions, right or wrong. There is no place, ever ever for RTW. You pull stats out of the air, or out of the union bible, and throw them into whatever argument you choose. You accuse others of being brainwashed but there isn't anyone who fits that label more than you, it seems. You are not worth debating and I believe your strident views should be ignored. Your last post is the last posting I will read.

  6. He may or may NOT have been abused himself when he was a child, but its now irrelevant. There are hundreds of thousands of children abused each year and the vast majority do not become sadistic pedofiles. You can pray for whoever you want - but his victim should command 100% of our prayers and sympathy. The predator should be thrown to the wolves in prison with no mercy.

  7. This guy is evil to the core. Anatomical alternations need to be done to him to prevent him from ever hurting another child like this.

  8. I am ASTOUNDED at the lack of professionalism in this "reporting". It was an opinion piece under the guise of journalism. Absolutely pathatic. This newspaper has no standards.
