With his dog facing euthanasia, owner adopts another to use as a decoy
A Cincinnati area man whose dog was ordered put down after it attacked another dog tried to pull a fast one on the local SPCA.
Jason Dotson, as ordered by a court, turned over a pit bull mix for euthanization alright — but it was not the one court ordered to be put down.
Instead it was one he adopted just days earlier.
Dotson, 32, of Springfield Township, was sentenced to 28 days in jail for trying to get the SPCA to euthanize the decoy dog.
"In my 10 years as a judge, I can't recall a more cold and heartless act," said Hamilton County Municipal Court Judge Brad Greenberg.
According to FOX 19, Dotson's original dog was not on a leash when it attacked a therapy dog and its owner as they were walking.
Police say the pit bull caused severe injuries to the therapy dog, who has been recovering for the last few months.
Dotson was charged with failing to confine his animal and he was ordered to put the dog down. But when he brought the substitute dog to the SPCA to be euthanized an "alert" worker spotted the difference in the dog's coloring.
Through a microchip, the SPCA confirmed it was a different dog.
"Defendant brought a dog that wasn't his dog, said it was his dog, and turned that over to the SPCA so they would destroy an innocent dog that hadn't done anything to anybody," said Ryan Nelson, assistant Hamilton County prosecutor.
Dotson had adopted the dog nine days earlier according to Fox 19, two days earlier according to the Cincinnati Enquirer.
He was sentenced to 30 days in jail.
The original dog has since been put down, according to SPCA officials.
Baby, the pit bull puppy who Dotson tried to pass off as his other dog, remains with the SPCA and will be getting a second chance at adoption.

Abandoned dog was living in a knothole
Ever have one of those days when it seems like humanity isn't treating you with the proper respect — the kind that makes you just want to crawl into a hole and hide?
Apparently that was the case with Boo, a Chihuahua mix who was spotted a couple of weeks ago in a rural area in Sonoma County, California, living inside a hole in a large tree.
A call to Sonoma County Animal Control led Shirley Zindler and other officers to the spot.
It was an area, they say, where people commonly abandon dogs.
It took a few hours, but the small dog was finally coaxed out of the knothole.
The officers named her Boo — after the To Kill A Mockingbird character, Boo Radley, who left gifts for children in an oak tree's knothole.
Boo Dogley, as she is now known, was dirty and underweight when she was found. Officers estimated she was about one year old and had been living in the tree at least a week.
Possibly, she picked the hiding place because she was about to deliver a litter of pups. Unfortunately, none survived.
Zindler says Boo is skittish around people and was likely mistreated.
"She thinks the world's out to get her," Zindler, who is also the author of The Secret Life of Dog Catchers, told The Huffington Post.
Zindler is caring for Boo now, while seeking a "very, very patient person" to give her a forever home.
Boo's recovery is being documented on Zindler's Facebook page,The Secret Life of Dog Catchers.
"She'll stay with me until the right home is found," said Zindler, noting it's not the first time she has taken an unwanted dog home. She has four others.
"I take them home and fix them up so they can find a forever home."

Does pinpointing breeds speed up adoption?
In hopes that potential adopters will find a "Chiratoodle" or a "golden Chinscher" more appealing than a plain old mutt or "Chihuahua mix," an animal shelter in California has begun DNA testing some of its dogs to determine their breeds and market them under more exotic names.
The Peninsula Humane Society and SPCA in Burlingame, south of San Francisco, says initial results show the DNA tested dogs are getting adopted twice as fast.
Not too surprising in a world that prefers labels over mysteries — at least when it comes to what we bring into our homes.
DNA testing is not widely practiced by America's animal shelters, mainly because of its expense. As a result, most people who adopt a dog from a shelter leave with a mystery mutt, or one whose heritage has been guessed at by shelter staff.
My dog Ace, for instance, when he was adopted nearly 10 years ago, was listed as a "hound mix" on his shelter paperwork, referred to as a "shepherd mix" by shelter staff and listed on Petfinder.com as a "Labrador mix."
When DNA tests came on the market in 2007, I purchased one, swabbed his cheek and learned he was Rottweiler and Chow. In the next few years, as the tests became capable of identifying more than the original 38 breeds, I tested him two more times. The second test determined he was Rottweiler, Chow and Akita. The third test showed him to be all of those, and a little bit pit bull.
The tests allowed me to answer the question I was asked at least once a day: "What kind of dog is that?" It wasn't so much that I had to know. All three tests were done mostly as research, for the purpose of writing about them. And once I learned the breeds he was made up of, I kind of missed the mystery.
I don't think the information is all that vital, but I can understand how a purchaser, or adopter, of a dog might like to know what's in his or her mix.
In California, the Peninsula Humane Society and SPCA conducted the tests in an attempt to increase the adoptions of Chihuahua mixes, which make up nearly a quarter the dogs in its shelter.
The campaign, conducted under the slogan "Who's Your Daddy?" is aimed at "finding great homes for dogs at risk of being overlooked," said Scott Delucchi, the shelter's senior vice president.
"People love mutts. Still, we're betting shelter dogs with DNA results included, for free, will be quite fetching," he says in a commercial for the campaign.
The shelter picks up the cost of the $50 tests, which they say can help owners identify what breed-specific traits the dogs might exhibit. The tests also allow the shelter to have some fun coming up with clever breed names — like "Chorgi" (Chiuahua-corgi), "golden Chinscher" (golden retriever-miniature pinscher-Chihuahua) and "Chiratoodle" (Chihuahua-rat terrier-poodle).
In February, the shelter conducted tests that determined the breed make up of 11 small dogs. All found homes within two weeks — twice as fast as any 11 untested small, brown dogs in the previous months, according to an Associated Press story.
Twelve more dogs have been tested since then and once they are all placed in homes the shelter plans to test 24 more.
Chihuahuas have replaced pit bulls as the most prevalent breed in the shelter, largely due to the "Beverly Hills Chihuahua" movies, and the breed's popularity among celebrities.
While some visitors to the shelter are seeking Chihuahuas, others are looking for mutts — small dogs who, thanks to another breed being in the mix, might have a less nervous dispositions.
While shelter officials have proclaimed the new program a success, they note that it's going to take more than a gimmick to reduce the "alarming" number of Chihuahua mixes coming in.
"Another part is making spay-neuter low-cost or free to the community," Delucchi said. The shelter also exports some of its smaller dogs to shelters in Florida, New York and other states where they are in shorter supply.

Changes vowed at Baltimore County shelter
Some long called for changes may be coming at Baltimore County's animal shelter.
After more than a year of pressure by animal advocates for improvements, Baltimore County Executive Kevin Kamenetz announced yesterday that the shelter in Baldwin, Md., will be shifting from the "narrow view" of it being a place for dangerous animals and focusing more on caring for animals and getting them adopted.
That's exactly the sort of change we called for in yesterday's ohmidog! post — the one suggesting local governments ditch their use of the term "animal control" and become animal protection departments.
Baltimore County hasn't announced any formal plans to do that (maybe it's not too late to work that in), but the county executive did outline future steps to add more employees, expand low-cost spaying and neutering services, cooperate with a program aimed at neutering feral cats and increase the shelter's focus on getting animals adopted.
Kamenetz said he'll hire a volunteer coordinator and a foster care coordinator at the shelter – two areas animal advocates have been critical of. He also announced that a new Facebook page will be set up devoted to promoting adoptable animals, and that the shelter will be receiving guidance from the Baltimore Animal Rescue and Care Shelter, commonly known as BARCS.
The changes will be included in his next budget for Animal Services — a division of the county health department — and would go into effect at the start of the next budget year on July 1, the Baltimore Sun reported.
"We think we're moving in the proper direction in a deliberative manner," Kamenetz said.
Animal advocates and the American Civil Liberties Union of Maryland complained to the county last fall that shelter volunteers were banned from taking pictures, in violation of their First Amendment rights. The county has been working with the ACLU on training shelter employees on the rights of volunteers.
Earlier this month, the County Council passed a bill creating an animal services advisory commission to review the shelter's operations. The 11-member commission has yet to be appointed.
In a statement released by the county executive's office, Council Chairwoman Cathy Bevins praised the proposals as "bold steps to upgrade animal services in Baltimore County."
The county already is building a new shelter on its current site, scheduled to open in August.
Our hope would be — in accordance with the proposal we put forth yesterday, and in accordance with the new focus Kamenetz spoke of — that the sign in front of it reads Animal Protection, or Animal Services … anything but Animal Control.

Caffeine and canines: LA Dog Cafe would showcase adoptable dogs
Here's an idea we love — an establishment where you can get your caffeine fix and your canine fix at the same time.
It's a dog cafe — a cozy and comfortable place where, in addition to enjoying a nice cup of coffee or tea, you can meet, bond with and pet a few dogs, and maybe even take one home.
A woman in Los Angeles, putting a new twist on what up to now has been an Asian concept, is trying to start up America's first dog cafe — called, appropriately enough, the Dog Cafe.
"The Dog Cafe's mission is simple. We want to provide a second chance for shelter dogs that are often overlooked," founder Sarah Wolfgang told LA Weekly. "The Dog Cafe is going to put a spin on the way people adopt by totally reinventing the way we connect with homeless dogs."
In addition to showcasing adoptable dogs in a warmer environment than most shelters offer, the cafe will allow Los Angeles residents who can't have dogs to get a doggy fix — thereby soothing nerves frazzled by traffic jams and making workday stresses disappear.
(And maybe lowering their blood pressure at least as much as that cup of coffee is raising it.)
Allowing the petless to spend some time with pets was the idea behind pet cafes that popped up in Japan, Korea and other Asian countries. For the price of a coffee or tea, patrons — many of whom live in small crowded apartments and can't have pets of their own — can sit in a restaurant and pet, cuddle, interact with and be surrounded by dogs, or cats.
Finding the animals homes wasn't their purpose, but Wolfgang, who once worked at private animal shelters in Korea, saw the possibilities.
The Dog Cafe in Los Angeles will have adoption as its primary mission, but not its only one.
"The Dog Cafe is for everyone," Wolfgang said. "We want people to come in and cuddle with our pooches even if they aren't interested in adopting."
Working with rescue groups, the Dog Cafe will be stocked with dozens of adoptable dogs, who will roam the shop and hang out with customers.
The coffee will come from Santa Monica–based coffee roaster Grounds & Hounds Coffee Co., whose blends include Alpha Blend, Morning Walk Blend and Paper & Slippers Blend. The company donates 20 percent of its profit from each purchase to a local shelter.
Because of L.A. Health Department regulations, the cafe must be divided into two areas, keeping the drink service counter and "dog zone" separated.
She's now raising funds — here's her page on indiegogo – to help start the cafe.
"Our goal is to find forever homes for at least 104 dogs within the first year, though we are anticipating to reach a much higher number," the page says. "Our project will reinvent the way people view adopting dogs and will give dogs that seemed 'unadoptable,' a chance at their very own forever home."
The Dog Cafe would benefit both dogs and humans, she said — and not just those humans who adopt a pet.
"… Even if you're not looking to adopt, you can still enjoy all of the sloppy kisses you've ever wanted."

Gov. McCrory shows his soft side
While he's not viewed as particularly warm and cuddly by Democrats — at least when it comes to helping humans in need — N.C. Gov. Pat McCrory says he wants the public to adopt abandoned and mistreated dogs, and he and the first lady are opening up the governor's mansion (or at least its yard) for an adoption event tomorrow.
McCrory is shown in this News & Observer video petting a pomeranian, seized in a recent puppy mill bust in Pender County.
Lexi will be among as many as 30 dogs — some coming from as far away as Greensboro and Charlotte to attend — who will be available for adoption at the event, which runs from 10:30 a.m.to 12:30 p.m. Saturday
While it seems odd protocol for an adoption event, anyone wishing to attend is asked to RSVP by today — by emailing email@example.com.
The governor and first lady Ann McCrory are also promoting a bill to set minimum standards for breeding operations.
While the proposal isn't too tough, relative to measures passed in other states, it sets standards ensuring that dogs have daily exercise, fresh food and water, shelter and veterinary care at breeding operations with at least 10 females.
The measure passed the House but didn't get heard in the Senate before it recessed. The General Assembly reconvenes in May.
"I'm not going to give up on the bill," the governor said at the press conference announcing the adoption event Wednesday. "This dog issue is not a Democratic or Republican issue — it's an independent issue for every one of us."
The McCrorys have one dog, Moe, who lives at their Charlotte residence.

Infections leads BARCS to halt admissions
Baltimore Animal Rescue and Care Shelter (BARCS) will temporarily suspend intake of dogs due to an outbreak of respiratory infections, WJZ reports.
The three-week moratorium will allow veterinarians to treat ill animals and ensure that the infection is not transmitted to more dogs at the shelter.
No new dogs will be admitted from June 3 to June 24.
The shelter will remain open, maintain its regular hours and continue adoptions of both dogs and cats.
"We're currently seeing a much higher rate than normal of these serious respiratory infections in dogs, and we want to deal with the problem aggressively and make sure that as few animals as possible become ill," said BARCS Executive Director Jennifer Brause.
"This was a difficult decision and one not made without careful consideration of all options. We're confident it's the right thing to do for the better health of animals in Baltimore."
"We are asking people who have dogs they need to give up, to please hold on to them until the shutdown has ended, or to find alternate housing for this short period of time," Brause said.
People who find dogs can contact BARCS, which will help them find other shelters or rescue organizations that can accept the animal.
Cat intakes are not affected.

Lemon Blueberry Muffins Recipe
4.5 15
When my sister and I spent the night at our grandmother's house, we often requested these muffins for breakfast. Today, I bake them for my kids. The very aroma is a trip down memory lane. —Kris Michels, Walled Lake, Michigan
- 2 cups biscuit/baking mix
- 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar, divided
- 1 egg
- 1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
- In a large bowl, combine biscuit mix and 1/2 cup sugar. Whisk egg and sour cream; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in blueberries.
- Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups half full. Combine lemon peel and remaining sugar; sprinkle over batter.
- Bake at 400° for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack. Serve warm. Yield: 1 dozen.
Editor's Note: If using frozen blueberries, use without thawing to avoid discoloring the batter.

Tosser as a term of contempt in British slang is recorded from 1977, probably from slang toss off "masturbate" (1969); cf. jerk (n.).
Angry; upset; pissed off: She was all torqued because he took someone else out
[1960s+ Black; probably somehow fr the sense ''twisted,'' found by 1572, and hence semantically akin to bent out of shape]

* This refers to 'Delhi gangrape shakes Parliament; Jaya Bachchan breaks down, Sushma Swaraj, others seek death penalty' (IE, December 19). The juridical process for dealing with rape cases should change. At present, our laws may be too slow and lenient. These cases must be dealt with swiftly, and strict punitive measures must be taken against the guilty.

How important do elected representatives and law enforcers consider the opinions of individuals? How can citizens participate in awarding befitting punishment to those who threaten the safety of women in the capital?

* BSP leader Mayawati must be hailed for taking a firm stand on reservation in promotion for Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes in government jobs ('SP isolated as Rajya Sabha clears quota Bill', IE, December 18). It is possible that her strong position helped the Rajya Sabha to pass the bill quickly. A quota for Muslims, as Samajwadi Party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav demands, is unlikely to have a political effect. If Yadav is serious about the upliftment of Muslims, he should empower them politically in his party. How many tickets did the SP give Muslims in its recenty declared list of probables for the 2014 Lok Sabha elections?

* THIS refers to 'Against forgetting' (IE, December 19). The proposed national war memorial should be built on the banks of the Yamuna in Delhi. This is an apt location, because it would be close to the memorials of national icons like Mahatma Gandhi, Indira Gandhi and others. Many tourists visit this part of the city. If the memorial is built there, they would have the opportunity to learn about the sacrifices made by our brave men in war. Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit is right to say that building the memorial at India Gate will congest the area, lead to security concerns and restrict the freedom of movement.

- Women are more reliable than men when remitting funds to their families back home. In 2008 we found that over 12 months, the mean remittances of female expatriate workers in Dubai were almost AED 2,000 more than the remittances of male expatriates.
- Women tend to allocate more resources to support family living expenses and human capital, compared with their male counterparts, who tend to focus on building physical capital.
- Women are also more likely to act as a safety net for their family back home during emergencies and bad economic times. Some 52 per cent of female expatriates in Dubai allocate a portion of their overall remittances for such eventualities, compared with just 5 percent of all expatriate workers.

The Teutonic Knights: A Military Historyby Urban, William
Casemate Pub & Book Dist Llc
Questions About This Book?
What version or edition is this?
This is the Reprint edition with a publication date of 12/1/2011.
What is included with this book?
- The New copy of this book will include any supplemental materials advertised. Please check the title of the book to determine if it should include any CDs, lab manuals, study guides, etc.
The Teutonic Knights were powerful and ferocious advocates of holy war. Their history is suffused with crusading, campaigning and struggle. Feared by their enemies but respected by medieval Christendom, the knights and their Order maintained a firm hold over the Baltic and northern Germany and established a formidable regime which flourished across Central Europe for 300 years.This major new book surveys the gripping history of the knights and their Order and relates their rise to power; their struggles against Prussian pagans; the series of wars against Poland and Lithuania; the clash with Alexander Nevsky's Russia; and the gradual stagnation of the order in the fourteenth century. The book is replete with dramatic episodes - such as the battle on frozen Lake Peipus in 1242, or the disaster of Tannenberg - but focuses primarily on the year-after-year struggle to maintain power, fend off incursions and raiding bands and to launch crusades against unbelieving foes. And it was the crusade - with knights demonstrating their valour, daring and knightly worth - which chiefly characterised and breathed life into this militant, conquering Holy Order.William Urban's narrative charts the rise and fall of the Order and, in an accessible and engaging style, throws light on a band of knights whose deeds and motives have long been misunderstood.

As a child, I was sexually abused by a male adult relative who was close to my family at that time. I was just 5 years old and I remember this went on till I was about age 10. It wasn't just one male adult relative. It was an unpleasant experience. It was horrific. It always happened in the dark of the night. There was no one to call out to. Even when I thought of telling my parents, I didn't trust that they would handle it in a …

In attendance were organizations like Association of Women Living with HIV in Nigeria (ASWHAN), Association of Positive Youth Living With HIV/AIDS in Nigeria (APYIN), Positive Action for Treatment Access (PATA), Education as a Vaccine (EVA), National Youth Network of people living with HIV/AIDS (NYNETHA), to mention a few.

In Nigeria, LGBT youth have been in the low, though they have a presence but not dominant. In fact, quite a number of young people are beginning to identify more as either lesbian or gay and its becoming more acceptable within the youth population than with the older people. Even though the majority of the Nigerian society frowns against it, particularly older people due to cultural and religious beliefs, that hasn't really changed how people express their sexuality.
However, it is actually difficult for young people to freely …

Looking around us, at the posh homes, luxurious lifestyles, nice cars, seems like the people who own these things are actually making a better impact in the world, like they have more meaning to their existence. With the change in times today, the youth population and mind-set is much more complex and diverse.
Bringing it home to Nigeria, we have a huge disparity for opportunities amongst our youths. Some are rich; some are poor, while some don't even have the opportunity at all. In a capitalist nation like …

Many young people in Nigeria are still ignorant about their RIGHTS.

December 2010, the Youth Advocates Group (YAG) launched the RED CARD campaign to push Nigerian legislators to pass the ANTI-STIGMA BILL. YAG had previously made recommendations on the bill during the public hearing in November 2010. In preparation for the launching of the campaign, YAG set out into 12 states to engage young people in the signing of the RED CARD to their representatives. Youth participation was meaningful as 2, 010 young people signed the RED CARD. Also, messages on the RED CARD by the youth were real, diverse …

Our election has come and gone but the euphoria is still in the air. Youth participation in elections this year amounts to the highest in Nigeria's history. Who would have thought young people would come out in such numbers to exercise their voting power considering the fact that they face a lot developmental challenges such as unemployment, poverty, high rate of HIV infection, illiteracy and so on. Still, we came out and made a huge impact in terms of participation and voting who we thought would deliver.

The passage of the National Health Bill has become a battle even though it has been passed at the Senate; all that is left is for the President to sign the Bill so it can become law. All of a sudden, a group of health workers are kicking against the signing of the Bill by Mr President due to some personal interest. They even held a press conference to state their position.
Am sure you are wondering what their argument is. In the Section 8 of the bill, it …

In Nigeria, youth involvement in policymaking processes is very rare. I can almost say it does not exist because young people are not considered as major contributors to policy issues, even when these policies affect our lives. The government believes that we do not have anything to offer in terms of policy making, so they see no point involving us. The only time they think of young people's participation is during elections; they only use us to get into power and after which they dispose us.
In recent times …

Headline news on one of Nigeria's top print media- Daily Trust Newspaper – "The Youth Advocates Group gives Senator Iyabo Obasanjo Bello a RED CARD." Very Impressive!

During the African Youth Development Forum in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, someone asked, "Why build a boat without a paddle?" For a second, it got me thinking and I tried to imagine what a boat without a paddle looks like. I painted a picture in my head of Africa as the boat without a paddle. It is a state of stagnancy, which can also bring about confusion.
However, why would anyone build a boat without a paddle? That does not make any sense logically; if there is a boat, there …

For many years now, Africa has been in a state of dependency on aids from international organizations and other western countries.

Does everyone really count? I do not think so. What I see in Nigeria today is a people who cannot get basic necessities of life like access to health care, information, education, simply because they belong to a certain class which has led to the death of so many innocent lives.

W.H.O estimates that between 100 and 140 million girls and women worldwide are living with the consequences of FGM today.

Some say it helps preserves virginity and ensuring fidelity, others say it enhances fertility and infant survival and some even say its religion; completely barbaric in my opinion.

A large percentage of young people in Nigeria attend Federal and State schools, some don't even go to school and very few attend private universities. Right now the Academic Staff University Union (ASUU) has an issue with the Federal Government and has closed down all universities in Nigeria because government won't accede to their request.

Can Make a Difference for Some Cats
posted 7 years ago
This is a mixed review. Some cats adapt well to Soft Claws. We have recommended them to families who have scratching issues with their cats. many times it has made the difference in whether or not a cat is surrendered to the shelter.
Unfortunately, not all cats will tolerate them. The can lash out when you try to apply them or chew them off.
Pros: A safer alternative than declawing your cat
Cons: Can be difficult to apply

A practical alternative to declawing
posted 8 years ago
This is a good product that saves your furniture and is an alternative to declawing. Once applied, they last several weeks.
Pros: Saves furniture
Cons: A little tough to apply

Great alternative to declawing
posted 7 years ago
if you want to save your furniture and want to forgo the declawing surgery, then these are for you. these caps are glued onto your cats trimmed toenails. They can still stretch out the claws and work them but nothing gets shredded in the process. They usually don't even know that they have them on.
Pros: can be used on all cats, variety of sizes, non-toxic glue
Cons: need to reapply every 4-6 weeks

Humane alternative to declawing
posted 6 years ago
It may be a fight to get them on, but this will definitely protect your furniture without maiming your beloved cat. May need to re-apply every few months. Easiest for cats started at a young age (sometimes even keeps them from scratching forever!), but they also work well on adults.
Pros: Humane and effective
Cons: Sometimes hard to get on.

Prevents scratching
posted 8 years ago
These are great to prevent cats from scratching furniture if you are having a problem with that. You just have to be comfortable trimming your cat's nails and putting these on each nail. If your cat is OK with handling its paws, these are a great option.
Pros: Stops scratching
Cons: Need to keep up with changing them

What is the best way to set registry value for all users on a machine. Enumerating HKEY_USERS and changing ntuser.dat is one solution.
Any other solution that can be used in XP,VISTA as well as Windows 7?
Actually installer needs to write one key into registry. And that key need to be used by all users. Once its used key should be reset.
This cannot be done if we keep only one copy of key in HKLM. Since if first user use it and reset it and then other users wont be able to use it.
Only solution I can think of is writing that key in all the users but that is not working in case of windows 7.

President Obama was once very precise about how to measure progress during a presidency. He said during his 2008 acceptance speech at the Democrats' national convention:
We Democrats have a very different measure of what constitutes progress in this country. We measure progress by how many people can find a job that pays the mortgage, whether you can put a little extra money away at the end of each month so you can someday watch your child receive her college diploma. We measure progress in the 23 million new jobs that were created when Bill Clinton was president, when the average American family saw its income go up $7,500.
Progress under Obama has kept the unemployment rate above 8 percent for most of his presidency (administration officials predicted unemployment would not go above 8 percent and would be below 6 percent by now), lowered real family income by 5 percent, and left 12 million people unemployed, about one-third of whom have been out of work for more than one year.
Back in September, Obama gave himself an "incomplete" grade on fixing the economy. Was he grading on a curve?

Cleveland 2008, Obama drew 80,000 people
Fast forward to this morning in Cleveland, only 4,000 showed up
Also today in Cleveland, Obama supporter, Stevie Wonder, had a get out the vote rally, only 200 were there.

Red State Cashes IN!
Too many of my friends have gotten so focused on the outcome and are so convinced the country as they know it is over if the other side wins that they are joyless to be around right now. They are full of dread and worry and fear. Theyve lost their sense of humor. They cannot laugh at themselves, their side, or much of anything. They are mad at others, myself included, for not being as worked up as they are. The frenzy has become a purity test, not the conviction.
God is sovereign. And whether you are for Barack Obama or Mitt Romney, set your sights on God, not November 6th, and be happy. In four years, we really will do this all over again whether right now you think so or not. There is no permanence except in Heaven.
That last bold is his bold, not mine. I think Erik needs to ask himself how these people who can't tell a fact from a pile of horse s%#t in the middle of the road, got worked up into this frenzy in the first place. Maybe Erik is going the way of some other moderate Republicans who realize they've lost their party to a bunch of Tea Party crazies who have been transformed into brainless zombies doing as they are commanded to do, and he wants to transform his party into a legitimate opposition party that will work for the betterment of our country rather than for a few Oligarchs. Nah! All the crap he's had on that site for the last several years says he's not at all sincere.

The I guess Romney will have no trouble winning Ohio, and the election...right, dunce?
#41117 Nov 3, 2012
Guess What Tea Baggers--
Mitt isn't doing so well in Virginia:
The greenvilleonline.com reports that Mitt Romneys first two rallies in Virginia on Thursday were strikingly smaller than similar events just two weeks ago with large empty spaces and crowds totaling no more than 2,500 a stark contrast to the droves that attended rallies in places like Chesapeake and Leesburg following Romney's successful performance in the presidential debates. The final rally, at an amphitheater in Virginia Beach on Thursday evening, was significantly larger than the earlier events.
President Obamas campaign last week thursday Oct 25th in Richmond, VA had a crowd of 15,000.
Romneys campaign in Doswell, VA only 25 miles from Richmond, VA had no more than 2,500 people, even though he campaigned there with Gov Bob McDonnell, House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, US Senate Candidate George Allen, VA Attorney General Ken Kucinnelli.
People are starting to smell the defeat. Paul Ryan shopping his next steps, campaign consultants bolting, and Kochs and Adelson turning off the money tap!
Have a blessed day!
#41118 Nov 3, 2012
maybe they're early voting....
maybe the circumstances were somewhat different for the last occasion?
In 2008 was it held days before the election and after he has spent days stumping all throughout the state?
I mean I don't have all the answers but Obama seems to be polling pretty well there anyway..
maybe the Stevie Wonder concert wasn't promoted well...
So there's one of about 13,000 ways to respond to this,,,
daylight savings time?
everyone was watching Fox News? i don't think so...but who knows
times change?
maybe some are not Stevie Wonder fans?
why are the polls showing Obama is still ahead?
oh i forgot all the pollsters are on Obama's payroll...sorry, I forgot about your sorry ass idiotic ideology whoops...
#41119 Nov 3, 2012
Where's the sense of business expertise you were going to attempt to impart in me? Or was that just more empty rhetoric on you part? Or are you going to predictably go the route of "You're not smart enough to grasp my intricate knowledge of business" that reigns over this thread?
Honestly, just save the energy. You'll go to any length to appear more knowledgeable than people you oppose. I could say George Washington was the nation's first president and you'd try to troll and argue otherwise.
Even if I say my bot comment was just a veiled insult directed at TaxNoMore, it doesn't matter. I know people with respectable computer skill who can easily handle the program and installing it. You're really reaching. So much so that you've ignored every other question I've extended in order to fight me over a comment regarding bot-for-profit.
I'd ask you the same ones but I don't anticipate answers. Just attempts to twist semantics and revisionism. That's been your calling card throughout your stay in this forum.

Obama refuses to answer about storm victims frustration

#41121 Nov 3, 2012
Obama camp - We are intentionally limiting crowd size at rallies:
The New York Times reported that the Obama campaign said that it is intentionally limiting crowd size at their events because of security and cost:
"Our focus right now is on exciting our supporters and winning over undecided voters and the smaller and medium-size events are the best venue to accomplish that because the president can closely engage with the crowd."
Big rallies are expensive, especially given the logistical and security challenges for a president as opposed to a mere United States senator. And Obama campaign operatives, both at the Chicago headquarters and in swing states where Mr. Obama recently has stumped, say the campaign intentionally limits crowds by restricting tickets. The reason is to allow the president to better connect with supporters, aides said.
Since President Obama is ahead in Ohio he only has to make a 'Cameo' appearance and speak to smaller crowds.
#41122 Nov 3, 2012
Then it will be NO PIE FOR THEM. 1 YEAR.
#41123 Nov 3, 2012
Sorry, it was not on CNN FOX or any other corporate controlled media sources you frequent but...
Foreign Policy - Given trillion-dollar deficits, America simply cannot afford to be engaged in foreign policy programs that are not clearly protecting U.S. interests. There is nation-building and rebuilding to be done right here at home.
Drug Policy Reform - By managing marijuana like alcohol and tobacco regulating, taxing and enforcing its lawful use America will be better off. The billions saved on marijuana interdiction, along with the billions captured as legal revenue, can be redirected against the individuals committing real crimes against society.
many more here:
so before you sound off 'What ideas?' and make yourself look like the idiot you are, maybe you should do a little research or pay attention to sources outside of CNN/CBS and FOX.
#41124 Nov 3, 2012
The idiots are so entrenched in the left/right paradigm, they think they are voting for a king, not a president.
They forget there is a Congress, SCOTUS, and state government. The Constitution, Bill of Rights, and civil liberties are also outside of their basic scope of comprehension.
#41125 Nov 3, 2012
Hey Ginnie,
i agree I think VA is going Blue too..all the way too.
This is very good information to contemplate
15,000 Obama supporters
2,500 Romney supporters
at similar events only a few miles apart..too
what does that tell you?
Money cant buy you love and who knows that better than Romney and Ryan.
Adelson and Koch's trying to subvert our democracy...Isn't going to happen now even though our Supreme Court approves of this injustice.
anyway have a great evening Ginnie and don't forget to set your clock back tonight...
#41126 Nov 3, 2012
Oh, you know so much Davey, don't you?
#41127 Nov 3, 2012
Ohio voters that voted early:
56% Democrat
34% Republican
#41128 Nov 3, 2012
What a desperate 11th hour, hearing-the-footsteps lie:
"the Obama campaign said that it is intentionally limiting crowd size"
Meanwhile in Cleveland "Fewer than 200 people showed up to watch [Stevie] Wonder perform a handful of his hits at the early voting event in support of President Barack Obama."
Has Stevie Wonder played for such a tiny crowd? EVER???
The Obama campaign insults Stevie Wonder while the Obama 'supporters' insult Obama.
The crowd wasn't 'intentionally limited', it simply was unattended.
#41129 Nov 3, 2012
i don't agree with any of your basic premises or assumptions...
but please; fragment, baby, fragment,,,
were with you all the way
separate now from your wealthy Health Insurance provider overseers..
Are you not a Tea Bagger with your unique comprehensive knowledge of how our government is structured?
But I sense a departure here a kind of fragmentation so to speak from the Tea loving aristocrats of old...i see your bringing forth a new and enlightened comprehension of our governments operation thats been literally hidden for centuries from us common folks.
go now on your own way into the desert without Romney and Ryan at your side
with only the wind at your back, go into the desert and start anew.
