Lifting Gun Bans on College Campuses

It is important. Just ask Amanda Collins.
Better yet, read what happened to her and the next victim after her.

She has a good head on her shoulders.

“I don’t understand why (the state) trusts good, responsible people to be able to have their firearm across the street, and as soon as they cross an arbitrary line, they somehow lose all reason and ability to be able to be competent with that responsibility. It makes no sense to me at all.”

I hope it stays there.

UPDATE: Putting the Record Straight

Regarding the Thuggery in Wisconsin, and elsewhere.

Make no mistake: The knock-down, drag-out battle in Wisconsin is based on total self-interest, pushing for past privileges, recast as workers’ “rights” that ultimately could bankrupt that state. One would think “collective bargaining rights” are immutable, found in the Bill of Rights, or in The Universal Rights of Man, to hear the public union officials and their lackeys in the Legislature. It is simply not so.

Gary Larson is quite right.

UPDATE: And in Washington state we have this:

WI AG Calls for State Supremes to Intervene

[JURIST] Wisconsin Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen [official website] on Thursday filed a filed a Petition for Supervisory Writ [text, PDF] directly to the state Supreme Court over a circuit court judge’s temporary blocking [JURIST report] of a controversial bill that limits the rights of public employee unions. The suit claims that Dane County Circuit Court [official website] Judge Maryann Sumi did not have the constitutional authority to block the publication of the Budget Repair Bill [Senate Bill 11 text, PDF]. It then asks the Wisconsin Supreme Court [official website] to immediately take jurisdiction of the case and dismiss it. A Petition for Supervisory Writ is not a direct appeal of any lower court decision, but rather a procedure that starts a new action altogether [Wis. Stat. 809.70 text] because the petitioner claims a judge violated his or her constitutional authority.

“a judge violated his or her constitutional authority” well now, someone has it right.

Let’s wait and see if the state Supreme Court will agree.

UPDATEx9: Wisconsin Voting Irregularities

This just gets better and better. Practically a dead heat between Prosser and Kloppenburg.
And now a story there are 500 to 600 ballots found that might give Prosser the majority.

Investigations are underway,I am sure. Yeah.

And more on this from Hot Air.

The “I Stand With Walker” Facebook page.

Pundit Press has some very interesting items.

A request from Mark Belling who is a local radio host.

10,000 more votes than the County Exec gets??

UPDATE: An explanation, of sorts. Could be an honest mistake perhaps.

UPDATEx2: It’s official, Prosser won.

UPDATEx3: The loser demands a recount. Sure. Does she know math at all?
Oh, those protests in Madison? Cost those taxpayers millions of their taxes to the state.

UPDATEx4: Day 2 of Recount. Lots of interesting reading here.

UPDATEx5: Day 3 of Recounting.

UPDATEx6: Day 5 of Recounting. About where it should be.

UPDATEx7: Day 9 of recounting.

UPDATEx8: Day 13 of recounting. Since I have been an election judge, I note the instance here mentioned about allowing the recount to include an absentee ballot that should not have been (since it was not completed correctly and completely according to the form’s instructions).

UPDATEx9: It’s done. The recount completed yesterday (Friday) afternoon. Judge Prosser still won by over a 7,000 vote margin. Now. Send Kloppenburg the bill.

Our Way of Life and Freedom is at Risk

George Soros keeps funding meetings and organizations bent on “reforming” the entire, global, financial system.
Particularly, and especially the United States.

Think it’s bad now? Just you wait. The media, and government, doesn’t care about this – their silence implies consent and agreement.

Proof of Union Bosses Keeping Members Where They Are

This truly a Piece Of Work In Progress, pun intended as that is also the blog’s name that holds the proof itself.

If you happen to be a member of any of those union organizations mentioned, I would be interested to read your comments about this.

Meet the Proposed Head of the ATF

Andrew Traver, from Chicago. Feel any safer? I don’t. Second time the POTUS has nominated him.

Michelle Malkin says it best:

Traver’s pending nomination hearing comes as Republican watchdogs Sen. Charles Grassley and Rep. Darrell Issa turn up the heat on the Obama administration’s stonewallers over Project Gunrunner. The State Department, Justice Department and ATF have failed to produce documents in a timely manner on a bloody initiative that has been tied to the deaths of at least two American law enforcement officials. Traver would be another go-along, get-along Chicago cog in the machine. Americans need someone who’ll strip the whitewash, not second-coat it.

Oh, and by the way, how about that war on drugs? Is it getting any better? Or worse? Who is better funded and capable?
Think it might be their toys?

And how about a new Secretary of State? Will it be Cass Sunstein’s wife? Color me unimpressed and a bit more concerned for our U.S. Constitution. Correction: a LOT more concerned.

A Real Woman For Women Everywhere

Veena Malik, a Pakistani entertainer. This article is excellent, and a must read. For everyone.

Plenty of fire and truth. You go, girl. Bless you and best of luck.

Incorrect Mr. Schumer

Declining support for the Tea Party? Sorry there, Chuckles. You have it wrong.
Maybe from your point of view (which is, myopic, to be kind).

More of us voters will vote against you, I feel sure, because of your willingness to spend us into oblivion.

We are watching. And we do not like what we are seeing.

Remember in November 2012.

GM Bailout Cost Us $B

But, not according to the head bailout artist, Barack Obama.

Let’s see now: the March 16 Congressional Oversight report, estimates taxpayers will be out of $25 billion, during its bankruptcy, GM got a $45 billion tax break and a February piece on AutoBlog also confirms that GM will also get a $14 billion dollar domestic tax break.

That adds up to $84B.

Now I have a question for Congress: How much spending are you cutting from here on out, hhhmmm ?????

Maybe.
