Conservatives set the agenda for the Democrat party

Conservatives set the agenda for the Democrat party

This is why our country is in so much danger when the Democrats are in charge.

I have been watching this for many years and most of you know I am no spring chicken.

I have always notice that you can always predict what the Democrats will be against by just letting the Republican Party say what they are for.

If the Republican is for going to war, the Democrats will be against it.

If the Republicans are for lowering taxes, the Democrats will be against it.

It is very clear that the Democrats really don’t know what they stand for, all they know is it will be against what ever the Republican is for.

Plus I have also noticed that the Democrats seem to hate the Republican president who ever he may be.

They hated Nixon, they hated Regan, They hated the Bushes and on and on.

Finally a Group of People Zagaris and Ridenour Couldn't Dupe or Buy..CSU Stanislaus faculty vote 'no confidence' in Shirvani

Unfortunately it's just another advisory vote that doesn't mean much.  Stanislaus County is getting use to these.

TURLOCK — Faculty at California State University, Stanislaus, overwhelmingly supported a "no confidence" vote against President Hamid Shirvani.

Results of the weeklong voting were released this afternoon — 90 percent voted no confidence in Shirvani's performance. About 90 percent of the 300 eligible voters cast ballots. Members include professors, coaches, librarians and academic administrators.

Employees have grown frustrated with what they call financial mismanagement and a continuing resistance to communicating with the public about how tax dollars are being spent, officials said.

Murder at Guantanamo? Obama pushing slowly and will reveal deceit.

Under much pressure, President Obama has moved pretty slowly regarding the Guantanamo detainees. More to be revealed as time goes on.

by: Jeffrey Kaye, t r u t h o u t | Report

With recent news reports centering on Attorney General Eric Holder's announcement that some Guantanamo detainees would be prosecuted in federal court and revamped, albeit flawed military commissions, important stories from previous months related to the prison facility continue to sink ever deeper into the swamp of our collective amnesia.

Did anyone attend the City sponsored planning workshop Wednesday night?

I've talked with two so far and am looking for others who took the time to attend.  I don't think the McClatchy News bothered to send anyone since we haven't seen any articles from them.

 

After Deadline: Watchdogging the stimulus spending

We’re preparing a database and some stories to help you track how the federal government is spending its nearly $800 billion economic stimulus package in the Northern San Joaquin Valley.

We’ve identified at least $181 million in grants delivered to cities, counties, nonprofits and school districts by Oct. 1 between Escalon in the north and Merced in the south. That’s a welcome injection of cash for local governments who say they’d be scrapping road projects and laying off police officers without the federal money.

We obtained our data from Recovery.gov, which is a pretty remarkable site in terms of government transparency. It’s all there.
