The victim and the witness knew Leggs, who was the former boyfriend of Foxwell's aunt, according to court documents.

Harry Reid - Bribe Master

U.S. Senate Majority Leader Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV)  __________________________________________

Harry has done it again, and again.
Harry Reid, likes to buy votes for the Senate Health Bill.  He cannot get the 60 needed votes, so he has to"buy them." With our money.

This shows what a lousy bill they have drafted.  For the bill to pass,  the Senators opposing  the bill had to be bribed. 
How pathetic - Harry Reid.

There is so much wrong with this bill, it cannot be fixed, it needs to be written again.  But I doubt if the bill will be changed.

Some lies:

If you have a chronic  condition - heart failure, diabetics, cancer .... watch out.  He is the lie.
 The Dems and Obama have said with this bill there will be no refusal to insure anyone  due to pre-existing medical conditions.  Well if you have a pre -existing medical condition, your insurance may cost you 60-80% more than an average healthy persons premiums. 

If and when this bill get signed, and more is learned about it, most Americans will see how they have been lied to, deceived , misled  and cheated, by Obama and his white house and the democrats in congress.

$300 million Louisiana Purchase for Mary Landrieu;

$300 million California doctor payments;
AARP goodies; abortion and union lobby concessions.)

Sen. Ben Nelson’s “Cornhusker Kickback.” The CBO says the Nebraska Democrat sellout’s special Medicaid expansion subsidy will initially cost an estimated $100 million.

___________________________________________________________________________

These are just a few examples of  the bribe masters vote buying scheme. There are more.
Visit her blog to see the others she has listed.

This kind of crap should be illegal.

The money these "chosen states" will receive means the other states will get less or none. Is this fair, Harry?

How can you trust the Democrats?  I say you cannot.  Remember all the lies,  crap/pork next time you vote.

Athlete of the Decade

 The AP has reported.

"Even after a shocking sex scandal that tarnished Tiger Woods, it was tough to ignore what he achieved on the golf course.

He won 64 times around the world, including 12 majors, and hoisted a trophy on every continent golf is played. He lost only one time with the lead going into the final round. His 56 PGA Tour victories in one incomparable decade were more than anyone except four of golf’s greatest players won in their careers.

Woods was selected Wednesday as the Athlete of the Decade by members of The Associated Press in a vote that was more about 10 years of performance than nearly three weeks of salacious headlines."

________________________________________________________________________________

What an outrage.


If Tiger Woods is the Athlete of the Decade, then he should also be awarded  Cheater of the Year award.

Way to go Tiger, we all know how hard you have worked at achieving these awards.  You are the best.

Major in Finance and Banking - You Will Get a Bonus

 According to
William D. Cohan"Two billion, nine-hundred million dollars is the amount of money the mighty Goldman Sachs accrued in the third quarter of 2008 for “compensation and benefits” to potentially be paid out in the form of bonuses to the firm’s 30,000 or so employees sometime in December. The third-quarter accrual represents a whopping 50% decline from the $5.9 billion accrual for the third-quarter of 2007. For the nine months so far this year, Goldman has accrued $11.4 billion for bonuses, down one-third from $16.9 billion accrued for nine months in 2007. Last year, Goldman paid out a record $20.2 billion in “compensation and benefits” and it is more than a little obvious that this year the payout will be down significantly, with something in the 40% range looking likely."


If your kid goes to college, and does not know what to major in?  Tell them banking , commerce and finance, financial advising, investments or just a degree in business.  Then start an MBA and get a job on Wall Street in an investment bank.

A law degree cannot hurt. These firms need lawyers to keep the execs out of jail. So a law degree is very important too.
The bigger the firm - the better.  That way you will be too big to fail.

The firm you work  for can screw up, almost go broke, get a bail out, and you will likely get a bonus.


You can screw up. And you will get a bonus. 

This is the only industry in the world where you will get rewarded for failure, the  only other place where this can happen is in the Congress.
