Not part of the narrative
I didn't want to bury this under the Trayvon postings because it doesn't fit with the very popular narrative being used by the main street media to fuel thier race quota. But here are some inconvenient facts.......The medical report from George Zimmerman’s family doctor after the Trayvon Martin shooting shows that Zimmerman’s nose was broken; he also had a pair of black eyes, two lacerations on the back of his head, a bruised upper lip, and a back injury. He was examined by the doctor the day after the shooting.

Dems retreat in face of Walker
This move on e mail ignores the latest poll which shows Walker with a 5-7 point lead, but that's okay it's the Dem way. The best part is the national Dems are scared of losing again.
Dear MoveOn member,
As a Wisconsin progressive working day and night for the recall of Scott Walker, I'm shocked: The Democratic National Committee still isn't giving financial support to the recall fight in Wisconsin.

McNamara & taxes
Whenever I see a photo of Joe McNamara in the Blade I know it's because he's trying to raise my taxes in some form or another. Can anyone list a single instance where this guy has ever come out against taxes, fees, or surcharges?

Panic in Washington this week
I could have told them it's not going to be business as usual this election cycle. But they listen to the lap dog media - not ordinary citizens.

First Lady Michelle Obama Named World's Most Powerful Woman.
"First Lady Michelle Obama has set the standard high for all women of color, age, race, and gender. She has shown us that you can grow a garden during the week, and step out later that night dressed as a nubian queen on the arms of her nubian man and he knows how to treat and show his affection."

A marriage (match) made in heaven...
A marriage (match) made in heaven; the Democratic National Committee and Charlotte, North Carolina.
For those who may not have been aware, even after Tuesday, the Democrats will be holding their quadrennial get together in Charlotte during the first week of September. So what made, and still makes, Charlotte such an appealing location that it was chosen over the other finalist cities of Cleveland, Minneapolis and St. Louis?
Could it have been...

Have you ever wondered why a pair of shoes that seems to cost the manufacturer so little to produce, costs YOU, the consumer, so much to purchase? There are various “hidden” costs placed on shoes sold in the United States, for example:
A pair of shoes costs a footwear producer $20.00 to manufacture at their plant.
There are $7.40 in duties/tariffs/taxes placed on the product BEFORE it even comes to a U.S. shelf~

Union fails in Wisconsin
Not only did the union backed candidate fail to win the Dem primary, the union members themselves failed to vote. Story below says it all.
The numbers don’t lie, do they? That all depends, I guess, on which numbers you mean.
After a year of protesting and fighting to recall Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker, an interesting number peered its way into the public yesterday—the primary vote tally. The total number of votes cast in the Democratic Party primary for Governor was only 650,725.
Why is this number so interesting?

The banksters take out their Lugar
Quote from article:
"It's no surprise, but long-time Indiana Sen. Richard Lugar -- not even a moderate RINO but merely a conservative from before "conservative" was just another word for "crazy" -- is out of a job tonight. It's easy to blame Lugar's loss to a generic right-wing GOP rival as the work of the Tea Party -- except we've already established that the Tea Party failed to exist the moment that Fox News pulled the plug on its creation. So who whacked Lugar?" (MORE) http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/attytood/The-banksters-take-out-their...

Perryman hits a homerun
Really interesting article from The Sojourner Truth weekly newspaper. Rev. Perryman hits the nail on the head when he wonders what happened to the black enclaves that used to exist, and wonders why no one is building them now.
Goes right to what I said the other day about the Great Society not fulfilling it's promises but instead actually hurting black communities. Amen brother.

Discipline Question
Just read the Blade editorial concerning discipline in schools. The article points out disparity along racial lines. It does mention socio economics as a factor. Would be curious to see a comparison of school discipline statistics with toledo crime statistics. Would be interesting to view both data sets side by side and see if any correlations exist.

Awesome editorials and adorable kids! Thanks to the RandomBlogette.com!
http://www.randomblogette.com/2012/05/stikii-why-cant-shoes-be-fun/
Have you heard of Stikii shoes? If you haven’t you are missing out. Stikii is a new kids’ shoes company located in Toledo, Ohio! When I say new, I mean new! Stikii was just launched on December 1st, 2011!
Curious about how Stikii shoes work? I sure was. I was first introduced to the company at The Toledo Baby Child & Family Expo last weekend. They looked like such a fun company. I wanted to be a part of it too! They even rolled a car up in the Expo building!

Why does road construction take so long
I drive the Ohio Turnpike on a regular basis. It currently has a couple stretches of construction I drive through. I completely understand that repairs/replacement of our highways must be done. These questions apply to the turnpike as well as any other road construction. Why does it take so long? Why do the sites sit idle on weekends, late afternoons, early evenings when there's still daylight? Shouldn't this projects run from sun-up til sun-down 7 days a week? It would be beneficial to the general driving public and especially to commerce to get these projects done as soon as possible.
