There is another liberal progressive unintended consequence lurking behind the current assault by O's administration on the military. The pool from which volunteers are drawn is not all the men and now women between the ages of 18 to 35. A very high percentage in this age range are not eligible for military service, volunteer or otherwise. They are not physically fit enough to get into shape to meet the physical requirements to serve. They also have criminal records. And the last deficiency is they are functionally illiterate. They dropped out of school. They cannot read and comprehend. The upshot of all of this is we will be taking more of the age group that are employable, and leaving a higher percentage of the unemployable.

College students have just left 4-5 years of liberal indoctrination. Most of them go to big cities and vote. Republican political candidates are demonized to a captive audience of our children for 12 to 16 years of their educational experience. Our children have been turned into liberals by their teachers. Republicans are not liberals for the most part. Republicans need a basic message of education that reaches the young teaching them the truth about liberalism, the function of economies, and the finances of government. The audience is largely only semi literate, and lives near a subsistence level. The message needs to be short, simple, and directed to their daily life experience.

Our Primary and Secondary Public Education teaches liberalism! The teachers are liberals because the liberals have the ivory tower PhD's that allow them to teach our teachers where our teachers receive their basic training. Big cities are BLUE! Big cities have higher secondary school dropout rates, so high that about a third of their residents are functionally illiterate. Many of there people vote. Our big city secondary school graduates are only marginally employable at best, because they lack any significant work experience. About a third get to trade school or a university. That leaves a third of secondary graduates doing low skill work in the cities of this country. Many of these low skill employed vote.

Well, what a surprise, unexpectedly the department with the lowest level of repetitive, uncreative, most routine work has low morale. TSA does a job with bureaucratic rules with no review of effectiveness, and too many rules that should be guidelines calling for screening, and profiling, that they make travel by air a very undesirable activity. Look at El Al for the sake of all concerned, please! I've flown El Al across the Atlantic, and prefer them above all others. El Al does not use TSA! They do not trust them! El Al uses their own well trained IDF veterans that speak multiple languages, have world travel and living experiences, and some serious forensic training. El Al is safe.

GAO is supposed to liquidate the old stuff at a regional auction. The idiot that lets this stuff go is in for a nasty surprise if they are ever audited.

The Nevada voters could issue that recall as a form of apology to the rest of the country. Let's hope some conservatives in Nevada initiate such action.

I certainly hope Kentucky replaces him with someone who truly understands that concession is NOT compromise.

Are you really that ill read?

The State of Nevada owes the rest of this country an apology for inflicting Senator Reid on us again in 2010. Dingy Harry is cut from the same pattern we got Tom Dashel from, and Dashel was a disaster. Our economy is a direct result of the likes of Reid ignoring the regulators in 2003 and 2004, and having Fannie and Freddie buy up all of those sub-prime mortgages. This of course was complicated by Barney Frank and Chris Dodd punishing the banking industry to write all of those sub-prime mortgages. This group of Democrat life time career politicians pulled off the magic trick of making 7 trillion dollars of this countries citizens wealth just vanish. No smoke, no mirrors, just gone forever never to return again.

I like everybody pays 10% income taxes and that would cover federal, state and local. That's all they get and no more. This being a flat tax. Now the legislators say that they need 17% for the feds, 8% for the state, and 3% for local, ='s 28% which means they have to get more for less by -18%. Thus the problem comes down to who is going to provide the executive governance that will be the adult supervision that keeps the legislator in check? Our real true problems come from the lack of responsible adult supervision.
