NASA Administrator Charles Bolden said in a recent interview that his “foremost” mission as the head of America’s space exploration agency is to improve relations with the Muslim world.

“When I became the NASA administrator — or before I became the NASA administrator — he charged me with three things. One was he wanted me to help re-inspire children to want to get into science and math, he wanted me to expand our international relationships, and third, and perhaps foremost, he wanted me to find a way to reach out to the Muslim world and engage much more with dominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science … and math and engineering,” Bolden said in the interview.

WHAT? WHAT? How in the h-e-double-hockey-sticks is a religion stuck in the 7th century going to advance space travel?

Someone answer me that. Anyone. All I’m hearing is the sound of crickets….

WASHINGTON – House Democrats, who are trying to pass a long-stalled war funding bill this week, have attached $10 billion to help local school districts avoid teacher layoffs when schools reopen.

The approximately $70 billion measure is anchored by President Barack Obama’s $30 billion request for the troop surge in Afghanistan and contains money for disaster aid accounts, foreign aid and disability benefits for Vietnam veterans exposed to Agent Orange.

The bill’s release late Tuesday night was the surest signal yet that House leaders are committed to passing it this week, despite great resistance among many Democratic lawmakers and deepening anxiety over the Afghanistan war effort among Obama allies such as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif.

The Senate passed an almost $60 billion version of the bill last month. Successful action by the House would send the measure into negotiations aimed at producing a final measure next month for Obama’s signature.

The difficulty in passing the bill in the House is magnified by disagreement between Republicans supportive of the war — who insist the measure be “clean” of unrelated spending — and Democrats who want funding for the unpopular war to carry unrelated party priorities. Republicans are threatening to withhold support for the overall package if Democratic add-ons are included.

OK, $30 Billion for troops. Now vote on it. Should be easy. Add disability benefits. Ok, I can see the link there. Disaster aid and foreign aid … now you’re going too far. Teacher funding???? Give me a break. There should only be votes on single issue bills. It would slow things down, and we could get somewhere. But that hasn’t happened for over a hundred years. We need to fix this.

So — The power hungry liberals need to find a new “cause”. But they’ll probably perpetuate this the same way the left has perpetuated so many other lies.

If this would go away now, it would be funny. But it won’t. There will be discussions ad nauseum even though it has been a lie from the start. And the libtards will still try and pass laws to mitigate “global warming”.

Pelosi: Where Are the Jobs, Mr. President?

“It is time for President Bush and the Republicans to get to work for all Americans, not just the elite few.”

DATA SNAP:US Jan Jobless Rate Falls To 9.7%; Payrolls -20K

WASHINGTON (Dow Jones)–The U.S. unemployment rate unexpectedly declined in January, but the economy continued to shed jobs and revisions painted a bleaker picture for 2009, casting doubt over the labor market’s strength.

The so-called “underemployment” rate–which includes everyone in the official rate plus those who are neither working nor looking for work, but say they want a job and have looked for work recently–fell to 16.5% in January from 17.3%.

So, where is “queen” Nancy now? Holding press conferences and asking “Where Are the Jobs, Mr. President?”

I haven’t heard that, have you?

“If we don’t pass it, here’s the guarantee….your premiums will go up, your employers are going to load up more costs on you,” he said. “Potentially they’re going to drop your coverage, because they just can’t afford an increase of 25 percent, 30 percent in terms of the costs of providing health care to employees each and every year. “

“This actually provides us the best chance of starting to bend the cost curve on the government expenditures in Medicare and Medicaid,” Obama said.

HMMM.

The way I see it:

1. The USA is already bankrupt to the tune of $9 Trillion
2. The “Healthcare Reform” bill is admitted to cost another $2.5 Trillion, and we all know what is a low-ball estimate.
3. Medicare and Medicaid are already bankrupt.

So if we don’t spend AT LEAST another $2.5 Trillion we don’t have, “the USA will go bankrupt” ????

I always heard that the best thing to do when you found yourself in a hole was to stop digging. But I guess I’m just not as smart intelligent bright dumb as these folks.

SEIU Targets Boy Scouts, Brings Renewed Attention to Union’s Thuggery
By ALG News, 11/25/2009

Last week, Nick Balzano, an executive board member of the Service Employees International Union’s (SEIU) Allentown Local 32BJ chapter resigned after threatening to file a grievance against the Allentown, PA city council for letting a Boy Scout clean up a walking path. The Scout, 17-year-old Kevin Anderson was attempting to earn an Eagle Scout badge.

As reported by Michelle Malkin in the New York Post, Balzano bellowed at a city council meeting, “We’ll also be looking into the Cub Scout or Boy Scout who did the trails. We may file another grievance on that… None of them can pick up a hoe. They can’t pick up a shovel. They can’t plant a flower. They can’t clear a bicycle path. They can’t do anything. Our people do that.”

The fact that this will go to court shows me where we are in this country. If I was the judge, there would be some SEIU jerks spending time in jail for this sort on fowl excrement.

Why, yes. They will be together in the end. And from what I can see, it’ll be hot as H!@#, because that’s where they’ll be together.

They say they have to abide by contracts already in place.

Just about every contract I’ve seen has a clause about breaking existing laws, which voids the contract. Either they didn’t put that in the government contracts with Acorn(hmmm wonder why) or they don’t want to try and exercise those clauses in the contracts( hmmmm wonder why).

Either way, it’s just all a bunch of weasels.

I’m thankful I still have a little bit of freedom, a little bit of liberty.
