There's a good reason Fox is #1. The liberal outlets spend more time talking about Fox than simply reporting the news.

Right...the local news has done a very poor job on this story.

holder just wants to make sure everything is above board and transparent.

[Hidden Content]     From the article:   The top 10 percent of all income earners paid 71 percent of federal income taxes in 2010, yet they earned 45 percent of all federal income.   Compare that to the bottom 50 percent of earners, who earn 12 percent of income yet pay only 2 percent of federal income taxes.

And unless we change course the 86 million will shrink and the 148 million will expand.

Our tax system is not progressive?   :rolleyes:  smh...always the victim.

  Simply being a Republican would carry no weight towards suppressing aggressive behavior...it would have to be backed up by actions.   I do think that Muammar Gaddafi, who was the bad boy of the 80s, shut his piehole and changed course after Reagan hit him in 1986.  If that would not have happened, I believe he would have continued down the path he was on.   So yes, I believe projecting a strong presence, and the bad guys knowing you are serious, works.

Stevenash, only the noble and downtrodden deserve a tax rate of zero... the actual taxpayers deserve the progressive and punitive tax rate they have coming.

It sure did!

[Hidden Content]   Why does the fed gov feel the need to so often mess up things that have worked perfectly fine for years and years?

  In true cowardly Bill Clinton fashion...ignore the real bully and pick on the weaker kid.

LOL

  I agree, I get a feeling you are very dedicated to the kids and their learning...but please don't ever dress like a woman in front of them!   :D   BTW, I know several teachers that teach younger kids and every one of them spends a good deal of their money on supplies for their kids.   The kids could probably make do without but they choose not for them to.

  God's Word makes it clear that many situations that the world deems as acceptable are not to Him.   As far as having a direct connection to God, yes, I do, it's called prayer and reading His Word...available to anyone that accepts Him as Lord and Savior.

:rolleyes:

So when Mr/Ms Klug was born, God made a mistake and she figured it out and is making it right...don't think so.   Come on...your argument makes no sense.

  How do you know that is the truth...if they had not been managing the land, they wouldn't have lasted 100 years.   You buy the tree hugger  statements at face value when the evidence points otherwise.   This land has obviously been managed...the fed gov is ticked off because he isn't paying their grazing rights.

  Yes I do, but properly managed, can actually improve habitat...many ranchers are employing the "one herd" grazing practice that improves habitat and native grass species.   Another problem I have with this  is why is the fed gov managing what should be state land? (i know this won't change...just one more place they shouldn't be)

  I believe they limit the number of speakers at open forum meetings so don't think that would apply.   This is a person that can't seem to figure out what they are...I would call that unstable, and in turn, would not be comfortable with putting them in charge of children.   You may be willing to take that chance (obviously so) but I'm not...kids come first in a school district.

Hmmm...not smart!

Not sure what your point is...mine was that the fed gov was supposedly all about protecting the "endangered" desert tortoise, at the same time making plans to euthanize them.   From your post:   According to Nevada conservationists, a number of attempts to revegetate habitat in the Gold Butte area have been destroyed by the trespass cattle.   :rolleyes:    Right...if the cattle are so destructive, how have they managed to graze this land for 100 years?   Ranchers are excellent conservationists for the most part, if not, they put themselves out of business.

[Hidden Content]     From the article:   Officials say Bundy and his son are illegally running cattle in the 500,000-acre Gold Butte area, a habitat of the protected desert tortoise.           [Hidden Content]   From the article:   Federal funds are running out at the Desert Tortoise Conservation Center and officials plan to close the site and euthanize hundreds of the tortoises they've been caring for since the animals were added to the endangered species list in 1990.

  If the majority of folks in the district want this, then it should happen...it's an independent school district which should serve the taxpayers within.     Your suspicions are wrong...the only overwhelming support she/he has received are from special interest groups, not parents, just like in the open forum meeting.

  That's great, but this is a matter for the LISD and the parents within...no one else.

  I can't speak for others but that has nothing to do with my evaluation of the situation...I simply don't think that he/she should be responsible for and around children when she/he is confused about what gender she/he is.
