marched over 70 strong on the Manteca City Council, demanding answers concerning the shooting death of Ernesto Duenez Jr. Also attending the march were several members of James Rivera and Rita Elias' family. Ernesto was killed by Manteca police earlier in June during a traffic stop. Family of Ernesto report that the officer responsible for the fatal shooting was placed back on the force only two weeks after the killing. They demanded that the name of the officer be released as well as video that was taken during the shooting. According to a statement released by the family:
According to several witnesses, Ernesto posed no threat to the officer as he exited the back of the truck with his hands up. His leg became entangled in the seatbelt and as he fell to the ground he was shot by the officer without hesitation. Each shot ensuring death being the only outcome for Ernest including the final shot to the face. The officer made the decision to use excessive deadly force with such disregard for my cousin's life.In West Sacramento on Wednesday, July 20th, people rallied against Sacramento police who brutality beat one man while responding to a fight. Police arrived and beat the man, who later had to be put in crutches and then pushed his wife who was holding their child to the ground. Close by, another man was filming the incident and police arrested him and took his camera. He now sits in a jail cell awaiting deportation. According to a post on indybay:
|Aristeo Vasquez's leg.
On Sunday July 17th, West Sacramento resident Jesus Castro was arrested and had his camera confiscated by West Sacramento police while videotaping an incident of police brutality. Mr. Castro, who is undocumented, now faces deportation and is currently being held at Yolo County Jail. This follows a pattern of police brutality and discrimination in Yolo County, especially in West Sacramento, where the Latino community has been under siege for several years. This includes so-called gang injunction, which specifically targets Latino youth, forbidding them from dressing in certain colors that the short-sighted authorities believes identifies them as gang members, as well as depriving them of their freedom of association.Sacramento police claim that their own camera did not capture the beating, since they were turned "away" from the incident, and they of course aren't releasing the footage of the arrested man, Jesus Castro. Also, it has been reported by attorneys that Castro's cell-phone footage has also been erased, most likely by the police themselves.

Nice review. This author, Arthur Phillips, is unknown to me. Sounds like someone I need to get to know.

Query: The rap realist/sentimental writers put on experimental writers is "that's merely clever", "it's fiction lite." Metafiction, e.g., is fundamentally unserious. Thoughts? (May be worth a post)

It is the time of the year that many of our clients are eating more fish. This is an adaption of a dish I grew up with. Fresh poached and flaked tuna replace the canned version. The dried "Italian Blend" herbs and powdered garlic are substituted with fresh mint and garlic. Canned tomatoes have been left in, but feel free to use your own tomato concasse (skinned and seeded) diced tomatoes. Whole cherry tomatoes would be fantastic too.
Mint you are saying to yourself, really? Pazzo…Continue

Christmas is coming the geese are getting fat
We've all heard the this Christmas carol. Having goose at Christmas time used to be a staple and slowly gave way to the Christmas turkey. If you have never had goose, give it a try, be ahead of the trend and help this tradition return.
Goose meat is richer and darker than turkey. It has a higher fat content than poultry, but a lot of the fat melts away during…Continue

Pittsburgh bioidentical hormones
Meet Pittsburgh Bioidentical Hormones Expert, Keith Wharton, M.D.
"It's all about lifestyle. The more effort you put into living a healthy life, the longer you'll live and the better you'll feel because of it. While diet and exercise are critical components of a healthy lifestyle, it's also important to take a look at sleep patterns, stress levels, nutritional deficiencies, food sensitivities and other factors that could potentially lead to health challenges later on in life."
Beating the Winter Blues with Balanced Hormones
It's estimated that about 19 million American adults suffer from depression. Clinical depression is a serious medical condition that, if left untreated, can cause a wide range of health challenges and interfere with your everyday life. According to Pittsburgh bioidentical hormones expert Keith Wharton, M.D., Medical Director of BodyLogicMD of Pittsburgh, the key to effectively treating the depression is identifying where the problem is stemming from in the first place.

Following the signing of Bacary Sagna on a free transfer from Arsenal, and the continued links to a number of centre-backs around Europe, there is simply no need for Micah Richards at Manchester City beyond this summer.
Richards has already felt the sting of heightened transfer activity from the club over the past few years, going from a regular in the team to obscurity, well away from regular match-day squads.
But Richards' versatility has made him a target for a host of Premier League clubs, some even competing in Europe next season. With nothing left for him at Manchester City, now is the time to take advantage of whatever interest there may be from other clubs.

Tabouli would have to be my favorite salad of all time. As my Lebanese friend (who taught me how to make this) always humorously reminds me as we chow down with love, "Yeah, I've told you. We Lebs really know our food". It always makes me laugh. I met my friend Christine when we were both working at a café on Brunswick Street in Melbourne many years ago. Her grandmother is the well known Lebanese Chef, Abla, made famous by her inspired Lebanese restaurant Abla's in Carlton. My friends and I often indulge in her trove of Lebanese magic.
Christine taught me the Lebanese version of this popular salad, which is a weekly staple in my diet. I then modified it to make it a gluten free tabouli using quinoa. This gluten free tabouli is a fantastic Summer salad that can be enjoyed all year round. Tabbouleh was traditionally a Mediterranean mountain dish. It is commonly served in Iraq, Syria, Turkey, Cyprus, and all over the Middle East as a popular daily accompaniment in various incantations. In Australia, because of our huge Lebanese and Middle Eastern population, tabouli is found absolutely everywhere. I must admit, that I only like the traditional Lebanese version using flat leaf parsley instead of its curly counterpart.
I don't know about you, but I have no room on my plate for the curly parsley. Even as a garnish. I think it is ugly, bitter, and just doesn't cut the mustard against it's Italian sister. After all, it was the ancient Romans who first discovered we could eat it! They were onto something pretty incredible, and have followed their lead, just as we have with so many other things. Parsley is the world's most popular herb. But parsley often gets overlooked as a leading lady, due to its reputation for extra roles as "Miss Table Garnish" or "Pretty Handbag Accessory Garnish".
Parsley has a delicious vibrant color, versatile taste, and has wonderful healing properties. The Italian flat leaf parsley is more fragrant and less bitter than its curly counterpart, so I just cannot recommend using anything else, or I feel like I would be short changing us all. Parsley is not only colorful and versatile, but it is remarkably low in calories. Don't be fooled by the size of those leaves though. Parsley is loaded with antioxidant power that is known to neutralize all kinds of carcinogens. It is great for bladder health! Fresh parsley juice is fantastic for urinary tract infections. It is also really effective at relieving tummy upsets, and is great as a natural breath freshener.
Those Greeks and Romans were onto that too! It just reminds me again how over 2,000 years have passed and modern medicine still pales in comparison to some of these gifts from nature. Why look any further than whole fruits and vegetables to maintain good health? Parsley is also a good source of Vitamin A and C, with antioxidant flavanoids great for fighting free radicals; and helps with healthy skin, hair and eyes. It is a good source of Folic Acid for cardiovascular health; and a source of iron, calcium, magnesium, potassium, and fibre.
Tabouli is a delicious easy opportunity to give parsley her much deserved leading role, and get a mega dose that will see you lining up for a return performance. I keep harping on about the Lebanese version and here is why. So many cafes and restaurants make a version of tabouli made with limp curly parsley, that is has an unbalanced ratio of cracked wheat to parsley. It is like a cracked wheat salad, leaving our beloved parsley in a supporting role. I prefer recipes where the Italian parsley is left to shine, enhanced by the other ingredients. Now traditional versions use tomatoes. I don't tend to use tomatoes very much as I don't eat nightshades very often -- a habit from my Macrobiotic days that is hard to break. If you don't have a problem with nightshades, include the tomatoes, but be sure to scoop out the flesh to prevent your quinoa tabouli from becoming too slushy. The tomatoes are great for color, and add a bit of an acid hit, which is refreshing on a hot Summer's day.
Traditionally, tabouli contains bulgur wheat. But in the gluten free world it is great to use quinoa, which is a fantastic substitute that I think tastes better. I have put the lemon juice and olive oil quantities as guides only. I like my quinoa tabouli really lemony. Lemons are just so alkalizing and cleansing for your digestive tract.
Just a tip: the average lemon contains about 3 Tablespoons of juice. To maximize the juicing potential: always juice a lemon at room temperature. But store them in the fridge, as they are susceptible to mold. Just keep tossing, and adding the lemon juice, olive oil, and salt to taste, in order to get your perfect blend. I also like to add in the chopped flesh of 1 lemon for an added zing. But this is optional.
Christine always maintained that allspice was the key ingredient, and I would agree. But just a pinch or two is enough to make this parsley shine.
If you have never had gluten free quinoa tabouli – you are in for a treat! If you are looking for allergy free recipes this quick easy recipe is a winner.
Quick Quinoa Tabouli
- 1 cup quinoa soaked and cooked
- 2 large bunches of Italian flat leaf parsley
- 1 handful of fresh mint
- 1/2 cup lemon juice plus more to taste
- 1/2 cup cold pressed extra virgin olive oil plus more to taste
- 4 medium tomatoes (omit if on Body Ecology Diet)
- 4 Lebanese cucumbers diced
- 8 green onions chopped
- the chopped up flesh of one lemon (optional for a bit of zing)
- pinch of all spice
- Celtic sea salt to taste
- ground pepper to taste
- Throw the parsley and mint in the food processor with the green onions until roughly chopped.
- Scoop out the flesh of the tomatoes and dice.
- Dice the cucumbers and toss together with the other ingredients.
- Add in the allspice and a pinch of Celtic sea salt and some cracked pepper, and then add in the lemon juice and olive oil gradually, tossing and tasting, until you get your perfect blend.
I like my tabouli really lemony and am very heavy handed with the salt. You might not like it quite so tart or salty. It is all a matter of personal preference. Enjoy!

A Globe and Mail top 100 book of 2012
Winner of the Hilary Weston Writers' Trust Prize for Nonfiction
A bestselling author embarks on a profound and dramatic journey through the eloquent landscape of southwestern Saskatchewan.
When Candace Savage and her partner buy a house in the romantic little town of Eastend, she has no idea what awaits her. At first she enjoys exploring the area around their new home, including the boyhood haunts of the celebrated American writer Wallace Stegner, the backroads of the Cypress Hills, the dinosaur skeletons at the T.Rex Discovery Centre, the fossils to be found in the dust-dry hills. She also revels in her encounters with the wild inhabitants of this mysterious land -- two coyotes in a ditch at night, their eyes glinting in the dark; a deer at the window; a cougar pussy-footing it through a gully a few minutes' walk from town.
But as Savage explores further, she uncovers a darker reality -- a story of cruelty and survival set in the still-recent past -- and finds that she must reassess the story she grew up with as the daughter, granddaughter, and great-granddaughter of prairie homesteaders.
Beautifully written, impeccably researched, and imbued with Savage's passion for this place, A Geography of Blood offers both a shocking new version of plains history and an unforgettable portrait of the windswept, shining country of the Cypress Hills, a holy place that helps us remember.
"In this book the gifted Candace Savage has written a part-memoir, part-history of the Eastend, Saskatchewan area where I spent half my life. She has done it with wonder, precision, praise and grief, adding to and extending the body of work about this extraordinary place, filling in gaps and providing another point of view. It is a heart-warming, yet incisive work that any reader will find hard to put down." -- Sharon Butala
"This is a brave and necessary book, eloquently written, deeply felt. Savage makes us taste the past in the dust, hear it in the wind, see its traces across the sky." -- Lorna Crozier, author of Small Beneath the Sky

Resident Evil 6 Announced: Capcom Confirm 20th December 2012 Release
The world will once more be infected by the zombie virus at the end of the year, with the sixth Resident Evil franchise installment set for release.
The world will once more be infected by the zombie virus at the end of the year, with the sixth Resident Evil franchise installment set for release.
As predicted (and spoiled by a leaked Gamespot promotional poster, which probably got somebody a stern telling off) Capcom have today announced that Resident Evil 6 will be released on 20th December 2012, following the successful No Hope Left viral campaign that has teased the title in the last couple of days.
Alongside the announcement, the development team have released an outstanding new trailer, featuring hints at where the story will take players, as well as confirmation that Leon Kennedy and Chris Redfield will both be playable characters in their own campaigns in the US and China.
Here's the trailer in full:
Incredibly exciting stuff.
The press release that has just landed in my inbox offers a little more detail about the upcoming game - blending action and survival horror, this latest instalment in the multi-million selling franchise, is the most ambitious, immersive and feature rich title of the series to date and promises to be the dramatic horror experience of the year. And here's the early synopsis:
It has been ten years since the Raccoon City incident and the President of the United States has decided to reveal the truth behind what took place in the belief that it will curb the current resurgence in bioterrorist activity. Due to be by the Presidents side is his personal friend and Raccoon City survivor, Leon S. Kennedy, but when the venue suffers a bioterrorist attack, Leon is forced to face a President transformed beyond recognition and make his hardest ever decision. At the same time, Bioterrorism Security Assessment Alliance member, Chris Redfield arrives in China, itself under threat of a bioterrorist attack. With no country safe from these attacks and the ensuing outbreaks, the entire worlds population is united by a common fear that there is no hope left.The game's Exec Producer, Hiroyuki Kobayashi, echoed the overall sentiment that Resident Evil 6 will be the grandest, story-lead addition to the franchise yet, as well as confirming that the tone of the game will welcome in some more chills. From the outset the teams intention was to create an experience that delivers a gripping storyline, tense single-player and co-op action all set against a constant theme of horror. We are calling this fusion dramatic horror and are confident it will resonate with both existing fans of the series as well as newcomers.
Resident Evil 6 is scheduled for release on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation3 on November 20th, with a Windows PC version to follow.

Very hard to get hold of now. He promised to get the chairs delivered thereafter and reimburse for the lost money. This has not materialized yet. Now does not answer his phone, does not respond to messages or to email. Finally an associate got hold of him today with very nebulous answers, and indicated the chairs were delivered to the wrong address in Texas! The order is to be deivered to Missouri. After reading the material on this website I am skeptical that this is a true company.
This needs to be investigated for fraud by the authorities.

Hi Guys,
Firstly id like to apologize as this is probably the most basic of questions, i am a print designer ( who needs to get into the 21 century ) with little to no experience with web design.
Basically i am wanting to add an image to my homepage underneath the navigation and above the featured content on this site -
...thats about it haha! Like i say i have no trouble with the aesthetics of the site its just anything even slightly technical. The image i want to add is the combined size of the featured post and the ad for 'black list' along side it and i need it to only appear on the homepage as it is going to be the sites 'about' area.
Thanks guys!

I signed up for ACN phone service because my son got into the business. They said I needed a temporary number to transfer my old number to the new ACN account. then they charged me for 4 months for that number. They said I requested a second number but I didn't. I was told I needed a temporary one. Never used the second number. I couldn't even tell you what it is. But the arrogant Supervisor in the customer service kept telling me I requested it so they are not going to reverse the charges.
My son was also convinced by his up line to sign for a phone for one of his downline. Do you think she has ever paid him for the phone bills? The company preys on young people and are trained to use guilt and manipulation of friends and family to get customers. Is it a scam? Sure looks like one to me. Crooks? I'd put money on it. AVOID ACN

Historical Traveler Reviews Askanischer Hof Berlin
Just perfect
As a family group of 5 we stayed in 3 rooms for 5 nights. This hotel is just perfect. Charming staff, great decor - amazing high ceilings - great location. Two of our party were over 90 years old and it was fine for them.
Great Hotel with lots of charm
I LOVED this hotel. I took my daughter to Berlin and to avoid too close quarters reserved the suite (room #30-31). What a treat. The rooms were huge. There is an entry hall off of which was a gigantic modern bath. Separate tub and shower. Even an antique dressing table and bench. Then there was a very large living room with full size sofa, two tub chairs, large desk, coffee table and antique bookcases filled with books. Finally a large bedroom with a very large wardrobe and french doors to open wide and look out on the courtyard. The ceilings were very, very high in the entire suite, probably close to 15 feet. I loved this place and thought the 165 Euro's per night, which included breakfast buffet and even eggs cooked to order, was a very good deal. Location is excellent and the staff helpful, giving us great dinner recommendations. Ask for directions and/or help with reservations to Ottenthal, an Austrian restaurant within walking distance that was excellent or try Enoteca Il. Calice, an italian bistro/wine bar that also had excellent food and great service and is very close to the hotel. I am going to try and post some photos of our room.
Great place to stay in Berlin
We now eschew the large hotels in Germany for small intimate well located hotels. The Askanischer Hof is run by a very lovely staff headed by the owner who lives just across the street and is very hands on. The rooms are well appointed, and quite lovely. We stayed in the suite which faces a small courtyard. Some of the rooms face the Ku'damm, and might be a bit more noisy. The breakfast is authentic German, and great. There is a small bar with hand picked wine by the bottle available. The location of the hotel is perfect with easy access to virtually everything. I recommend this hotel without reservation-but please don't spread the word since we want to go back!
Stepping back in time with all the comforts of the 21st century
I stayed at the Hotel Askanischer Hof in October 2005 with a group of friends (all women). We chose this hotel after reading Trip Advisor reviews as we were attracted by the unusual description of the decor. We were not disappointed and our stay at this hotel was FIRST CLASS. It is situated about 10 minutes walk from the SBahn Savigny Platz in a rather smart district with small boutiques and restaurants. The hotel itself if on the main Kufurstendamm with all the swanky designer shops such as Gucci and Chanel, but inside it is not over smart or intimidating and has a very pleasant ambiance. It is about a 15 minute walk to the main railway station and the Gedanknis Kirche. There is also a UBahn station about 5 minutes walk away. Despite being on the main road the hotel is very quiet - our room was at the back overlooking a little courtyard garden and we did not hear a thing. As there were four of us we requested a room together and were given the Suite which was amazing - hallway entrance, a large bedroom, huge living room with stately furniture, and a bathroom which could fit a football team! The sleeping arrangements had been changed around for us so we could have four single beds. The room was warm despite the high ceilings and ceiling to floor windows. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful and spoke excellent English although were happy to listen politely to our stumbling attempts at German! Breakfast is served in a large dining room, where we were seated at a table which resembled something out of a stately home. As remarked by other reviews, everybody spoke in whispers!! Breakfast was excellent and lots of it, with a copious self-service buffet as well as waitress service. The only drawback was a table of heavy smokers next to us. Everybody in Berlin seems to smoke, so this is something you have to accept I suppose. The hotel decor is quirky, lots of stuffed toys, photos and strange knicks knacks, but this adds to its charm. All in all a very good stay and we would recommend Askanischer Hof highly if you want a reasonably priced hotel that is slightly different. Other recommendations whilst in Berlin - go on a Berlin Walks (it has a website) walking tour which was fantastic and excellent value. Also ask the receptionist at the hotel to direct you to the Zwiebel Fisch cafe just off Savigny Platz if you want to eat authentic German fare in an atmospheric environment(it is close to the university). Enjoy it!
Eccentric but fantastic
Spent four nights here with my family. Quirky hotel with an almost Gothic feel to it. Our room or rooms were enormous. The adults were in a suite which had the largest bathroom I've ever seen in a hotel. You could fit at least six people in the shower (if you really wanted to!) and every where was spotlessly clean. The bedroom had a huge bed with brilliant white starched linen and a ceiling to floor windows that overlooked a small courtyard/garden. Its like an oasis of calm in quite a busy shopping street.
Breakfast was a rather strange affair as nobody on the other tables spoke above a whisper but the food was excellent.
I'd definitely stay here again as it was such an off the wall sort of place and the rooms are so comfortable in a "shabby chic" sort of way. The staff are extremely helpful and courteous as well.
Amazing & Charming
My family and I occupied 3 rooms over the course of 4 days. We loved this place and I will definately return every time I'm in Berlin. My aunt, who grew up in Berlin, found this gem after personally checking our several other hotels in the vicinity prior to our arrival. Cozy yet elegant. The price is one of the greatest values you will find in Europe! Rooms were charming old world style, clean, beautiful. We had #25, #28, #29. Wonderful personal service by the friendly staff and owner - all of whom spoke english. After the first morning, they knew my passion for enjoying coffee in bed and expected me - ready with a tray in hand. They also knew that I liked mineral water with breakfast, and after the first day, I didn't have to ask - it was brought to me promptly. A luscious European style breakfast buffet (included in room price) in the main sitting room was a great way to start the day. One rainy evening, I sat in the main room and enjoyed a quiet drink from the little bar in the corner and looked at the collection of Helmut Newton books. Great location - Chanel, YSL and lots of the best shopping ever all right there, plus public transportation. Don't miss KaDeWe down the street. The Kudamm and the side streets off it, are loaded with great places to eat too- loved the outdoor garden cafe at the bookshop on Fasanenstrasse, all within a walk or a short bus ride.
This stay was truly more like staying at someone's amazing house-one felt like a cherished guest.
Excellent hotel!
Just back from a 4 night stay at this hotel. Room was large and quiet, despite being right on the Ku'damm. Very good buffet breakfast. Staff were definitely first rate - polite and welcoming. Quirkily decorated, with antiques and stuffed toys. Old style German hospitality with a very convenient location. Perfect for a relaxing stay.
So at home at the Ashkanischer Hof
The Ashkanischer Hof is a little German gem of a Hotel (16-18 rooms) that has a rich history. If you enjoy feeling like you've stepped back in time this is the hotel for you. Each room is unique and decorated impecably. Our room, Room 15, at 92 Euro a night, was an absolute steal! We had a view of the Ku'Dam from our bay windows, a huge bedroom with adjoining lounge and desk areas, our own foyer and bathroom, and a shared community lobby with room 16 (separate from the main lobby)decorated in circa 1940 style. The breakfast room (breakfast is included in room price) is quiet and relaxing and the buffet is fresh, tasty and oh so German. A word to the wise--the hotel doesn't have much of a room service (you can only order cold-cuts) but there's a great number of restaurants along K'Dam within easy walking distance so you don't really mind. The staff is very professional, give you plenty of privacy, are very friendly and helpful but don't speak much English, so it's a plus to have some high school German under your belt (or a good phrase book). This was one of the most pleasurable hotel stays anywhere ever.
the Askanischer Hof is an absolutely wonderful hotel. a group of us rented out five of the sixteen rooms over four days, and felt almost as if we had rented our own little private mansion. it is as elegant as it is eccentric, and retains a marvelous 1920's Berlin aesthetic. as well, the staff are as friendly as any i've ever encountered. that it draws a more interesting brand of celebrity, such as David Bowie, Helmut Newton and Tilda Swinton, is hardly a surprise. i myself write about travel and stay in some of the most interesting hotels throughout the world--the Askanischer Hof is now near the top of my list. brilliant!
Hotel Askanischer Hof
I stayed at the Hotel Askanischer Hof for three nights in early June, 2003. I loved the hotel, located right on the Ku'damm. It's a quick walk to the metro and there's lots of shops and restaurants close by. Our room was lovely, quiet and spacious. The breakfast was the best we had while in Germany, some buffet items, some cooked to order and included in the room price. The service was outstanding, all in all a wonderful experience. I am definitely planning to stay here again and recommend it highly.

Ingalls Gunfight With the Doolin Gang
Though more furious and more deadly than the
Gunfight at the O.K. Corral in
Arizona, the
shoot-out between the
Doolin-Dalton Gang
U.S. Deputy Marshals is not
nearly as well known.
One of the many hide-outs used by the
Doolin-Dalton Gang
in the early 1890s was the small community of Ingalls,
Unfortunately, this small town was a haven for numerous
as residents tolerated them for their free-spending ways and the bad men
behaved themselves in order to safeguard their hideout.
In August, 1893, several members of the outlaw
gang, including
Bill Doolin,
Bill Dalton, George
"Red Buck" Weightman,
George "Bitter Creek" Newcomb,
Charlie Pierce,
"Arkansas Tom" Jones,
"Tulsa Jack" Blake, and
"Dynamite Dick" Clifton, were
taking refuge in the small town, most of them having been in town for
weeks living at the city hotel and spending their time at the
Ransom Saloon.
U.S. Marshals
got word of their location, Marshal, Evett Dumas "E.D."
Nix formed a posse of some 27 deputy marshals and Indian Police and headed
towards Ingalls. Camping out along a creek the night before, they were
seen by a young boy, who the deputies held over night. However, the boy
slipped away early the next morning and ran into Ingalls, telling the
outlaws, "The marshals are coming."
Bill Doolin
boy's warning gave the
outlaws time to saddle their horses at the
livery stable, but rather than making a run for it, they chose to
return to their poker game at the
On the morning of September 1,
1893 the posse crept into town while the
outlaws were drinking and
gambling in the
saloon. When
stepped out of the
saloon and got on to his horse, he was fired upon by
one of the officers. However,
"Arkansas Tom" Jones, who was sick in bed at
the O.K. Hotel, returned the fire from his second story window, mortally

firing just a couple of rounds,
Newcomb was wounded, but was able to
Within seconds a full-out gunfight
erupted with the
outlaws shooting their way from the
saloon to
the nearby
livery stable. Fugitives, Red Buck,
Bill Dalton, and
"Tulsa Jack" Blake then mounted their horses and came out of the stable with their guns
blazing. When

returned the fire, hitting
who would die two days later. In the meantime,
Bill Doolin, shot and killed Deputy Marshal Richard Speed.
Dan "Dynamite Dick" Clifton and Charlie Pierce
were also hit and wounded, but both were still able to ride.
All the
outlaws escaped
"Arkansas Tom" Jones, who was
trapped in the hotel room when Deputy Marshal Jim Masterson
threatened to throw
dynamite into his hiding place. Though there was talk of
Arkansas Tom Jones being lynched,
he was later sent to federal prison in Guthrie,
In the shooting
an innocent bystander named Young Simmons was also killed when he tried to
take cover inside Vaughn's Saloon. Another citizen, known only as Old Man
Ramson was also hit in the leg but survived. Also wounded was the
bartender, a Mr. Murray, who obviously an ally of the outlaw gang, fired
on the deputies from his front doorway. He was shot in the ribs and the
arm, arrested and sent to prison. Two years after his release, Murray
would pursue damages against the government for his injuries, but lost his
case due to
U.S. Marshal Nix' testimony defending his deputy marshals actions.
In the end, the
outlaws won
the battle but lost the war, as eventually, every member of the gang who
had escaped from the Ingalls gunfight would be killed, most by
U.S. Deputy
The small community of Ingalls,
located about halfway between Stillwater and Yale,
Oklahoma, is
no longer shown on state highway maps. Only a few deserted buildings,
stone foundations, and a stone memorial mark the site of the famous
gunfight. Settled after the land rush of 1889 into the "Unassigned Lands"
between the Chickasaw Nation to the south and the Cherokee Outlet to the
north, Ingalls was a thriving community of 150 people in the 1890's;
however, by 1907 the post office was closed. The site is located about 9
miles east of Stillwater, Okalahoma, and 1 mile south at Ingalls Road.

window, wounding U.S. Deputy Marshal

U.S. Marshal, Evett Dumas "E.D." Nix' account of the battle, as
written in a letter to Attorney General Judson Harmon on July 30, 1895:
"One George Ransom owned a
saloon in the town of Ingalls
and this man Murray worked for him as bar tender. The
Bill Doolin
"Bitter Creek,"
"Tulsa Jack,"
"Dynamite Dick,"Red
Tom Jones and numerous others
made this
saloon their headquarters, and Ransom, Murray and other citizens
catered to their trade, carried them news of the movements of the
Deputy Marshals,
furnished them with ammunition, cared for their horses, permitted them
to eat at their tables and sleep in their beds. These facts
were well known to the community, although a conviction on the charge of
harboring or aiding and abetting criminals against the laws of the United
States could never be sustained, by reason of the fact that the entire
community was under duress and would not testify for fear of losing their
lives and property.
On the 1st day of September, 1893 a party of
Deputy Marshals who had been sent after these
outlaws by me, arrived in the
vicinity of Ingalls, and the
outlaws mentioned herein, were at the time in
the town and in the
saloon of Ransom, where this man Murray worked. As
usual the
outlaws had received notice of the proximity of the deputies and
they sent a messenger to the deputies inviting them to come into the town
if they thought they, the deputies, could take them. The deputies accepted
the invitation and after posting their forces, sent a messenger to the
outlaws with a request to surrender and were answered with Winchester
shots. "Bitter
Creek" ran out of the
saloon in question and fired one shot
towards the north where some of the deputies were stationed, and turning,
received the fire of the deputies which burst the magazine of his
Winchester and wounded him in the thigh. In the meantime, a heavy fire was
directed at the deputies by the balance of the
outlaws from the
building and the fire was returned by the deputies which literally riddled
saloon. A horse was killed by the deputies which was tied in front of
saloon .... The fire of the deputies becoming too hot for the
they escaped out of a side door and took refuge in a large stable
mentioned. This man Murray came to the front door of the
saloon either
just before the
outlaws left the building or just after, it is known
which. However, when he first appeared in the doorway, he had the door
open just a short distance and had his Winchester to his shoulder in the
act of firing. This was previous to the deputies becoming aware of the
fact of the
outlaws having left the building. Three of the deputies seeing
him in the position he was in, fired at him simultaneously. Two shots
struck him in the ribs and one broke his arm in two places.
Eight or ten horses were killed and nine persons killed
and wounded. One deputy was killed outright at the first fire and two more
died the next day. Three
outlaws were wounded and one captured. The one
captured was afterwards sentenced to fifty years in the penitentiary and
is now serving his time.
Very respectfully, E.D. Nix U.S. Marshal"

Emma Thompson, 20, of Port Byron, who was earlier rescued from a cave at Maquoketa Caves State Park, talks to the media, Saturday, May 19, 2012, near Maquoketa, Iowa. Emergency crews continue to work Saturday in an effort to free a man trapped overnight in a cave. Park Ranger Scot Dykstra said visitors discovered Thompson and a man lodged in the cave about 8 p.m., Friday and alerted park staff. It's unclear how long the couple had been there. Dykstra said they became stuck while crawling through a narrow part of the cave. Rescue crews from Maquoketa and Quad Cities were able to free Thompson about 1 a.m., Saturday. She was treated at the scene for minor injuries, according to officials. (AP Photo/The Quad City Times, Kevin E. Schmidt)

Skip to comments.Was Benghazi CIA Annex Running Guns To Syrian Rebels?
Posted on 08/02/2013 4:27:16 PM PDT by raptor22
The Libyan Lie: Dozens more CIA operatives were on the ground in Benghazi than previously acknowledged. Were they running guns to Syrian rebels? And why are they and their families now being intimidated?
The only thing "phony" about the Benghazi scandal has been the cacophony of falsehoods and obfuscation pouring out of the Obama administration about the night four Americans, including the personal representative of President Obama, Ambassador Christopher Stevens, were killed.
Up to 35 CIA operatives were working in Benghazi the night of the terrorist attack, dozens more than previously reported, raising questions anew of why they were really there, what they were really doing and why the administration has tried so hard to fudge the facts and hide the truth.
One big unanswered question is why there was a CIA annex near to what was supposed to be a fledgling diplomatic outpost in Benghazi a soon-to-be, we were told, diplomatic mission envisioned as the first fruits of the now-mythical "Arab Spring."
We may have the hint of an answer in revelations by Jake Tapper of CNN that dozens of previously undisclosed people working for the CIA were there that night, and that the agency is now going to great lengths to make sure whatever it was doing remains a secret.

Guns? How 'bout 20,000 anti-aircraft missiles?
Say, WHY do they check our shoes etc at the airport?
Cuz I got news for ya —IT DOES NOT MATTER (now).
Please don't compare supplying arms to the Contras to supplying arms to the friends of Al Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood. The Contras may not have been perfect, but they weren't handing off weaponry to known terrorist groups, or killing Christians in mass.
I hope Jake has his car checked-out carefully.
Also with the SA-7 featured above the target must be silhouetted against bare sky for the seeker to "see" the target. So if I'm a hilltop rebel trying to fire on a helicopter approaching from low in a valley using the SA-7 Grail, then forget it, the missile sees nothing, since there is a mountain behind him.
But After Reagan's air attack against Khadaffi (much later it turned out his daughter was not killed in the raid, as he'd claimed for many years), Khadaffi imported newer Soviet AA missiles, also, like the SA-24 Grinch, below, and THIS is the real problem:
It flies at Mach 2, reaches up above 10,000 feet, and the aircraft needn't be seen against empty sky for targeting. Also the Grinch needn't score a physical hit for detonation --it also comes equipped with proximity fusing, so if senses an impending bypass, it will still trigger. Also if there is remaining fuel, this, too, will be blown in the explosion as a kicker. Even with jamming and flares, about one in four Grinches will score a hit, generally.
What type of success might it get against commercial aircraft in their current form...? The Obama Admin does NOT want to talk about this at all.
Whatever CIA is doing there, it doesn't answer who killed the ambassador.
So far I've heard a couple of theories. One, that it was organized by Morsi (the gunmen said, after all, "Morsi sent us..."). Why would he do that? Maybe a consulate held hostage and traded for the blind sheik. Suspicions are that O's people were in on it, hence the repeated orders to potential rescuers to stand down and not interfere. And that when the rescuers did intervene (against orders) and kill some of the hostage-takers, that led to the death of the ambassador.
Another is that, since they were apparently recruiting Al Qaeda to send to Syria, and buying up weapons for the same purpose, that Syria or Iran hired the hit. If so, the orders to CIA and the military to stay out of it make less sense.
Another is that, although we were apparently dealing with Al Qaeda, that they did it just because they're Al Qaeda and they couldn't help themselves. It was an anniversary after all.
Maybe. The head gunman himself has said he wasn't worried about being attacked for his role, that the US knows where to find him if they want him. He doesn't seem to be in hiding.
So, while its obviously interesting to me what CIA was and is doing there, it doesn't directly answer who killed him and why. So far options one and two seem most likely to me. Anyone have any better idea?
al Qaeda murdered Americans,
then murdered an Ambassador,
and THAT was acceptable to the CIA?
and Obama and Congress?
Their treason and utter hatred for the American people
will NEVER be forgiven. EVER.
Thanks fungi.
Paula Broadwell, Petraeus' ex-lover, went to her Colorado alma mater and in her speech disclosed that one of the motives they were looking at for the attack was:
The attackers might have been trying to free captives there.
How many people think she would have said that if US personnel had not been in the practice of confining people there?
How many people think that in addition to the MANPADS smuggling there might ALSO have been a small SECRET CIA PRISON in operation, there..?
And that is totally aside from the nightmarish possibility that this imbroglio might also have something to do with NERVE GAS.
One rents these moosleem thugs. I go with iran paying top dollar to stop the transfer, in their traditional role of supporting assad. Amateur hour, and incredibly poorly played as such with a terrible loss of brave people.
they raised such hell about iran-contra.... the contras were pro US. No way is the mus bro-hood.
How about this— the CIA and much of our intel is compromised by the islamic jihadists and their financiers (and arms dealers proxy for the russians and others)? What thinkest thou Diogenes?, shine your lamp.
I think you are right about the staged kidnapping of the ambassador for the blind sheikh so that Morsi could get his man back to Egypt and Stevenson could be set free, none the worse for wear - everyone Heroes!!!! Maybe the homosexual angle played out in the double cross. It would seem that Iran could have done it because they don't give a rat's patoot about the blind sunni sheik. Saw an opportunity and took it. One thing for sure, our PINO is not playing for Team America.
I also find references to the contras very annoying. As you say, the contras were pro US and anti communist. The jihadis are anything but.
I suppose that's why Democrats and the press went ballistic over aid to the contras and are silent when we send weapons to jihadis.
Looks like a good weapon to have shot down TWA flight 800,
Fast and Furious II. gate.
It could be more than one thing going on at Benghazi....MANPAD recovery may have been a screen for a couple other things. It's a LOT of people for a relatively insignificant city.
I'm totally shocked!!!
To anyone with half a brain (I know that excludes All Liberals) it was obvious that there was gun running going on. The problem was that it WAS NOT authorized by Congress...only by the CIA and the Dictator in Chief.
Relative to what..? Bengazi is only second to Tripoli in Libya. And for very long East Libya was it's own Emirate, with Bengazi overwhelmingly in control of it.
Bengazi already had been a focal point for Islamic kooks in North Africa for quite some time --Bengazi was the Animal House of both kooky and spooky. It was very, very much on the CIA's radar-screen.
Regarding your point that there was probably more than one card in play in Bengazi, well there, yes I do believe you are correct.
I believe the main thing was the missiles, however I think probably there is some other major matter that they want to shut folks up about that had been going on, there.
And when are some of them there rockets gonna take down some passenger jet or twenty???
"Looks like a good weapon to have shot down TWA flight 800,"
If so, why hasn't it happened again? [Not that I'm espousing a spark in the center wing fuel tank]
John Brennan, director of the CIA:
They say he converted to Islam while he was CIA Chief of Station in Riyadh.
Oh! Almost forgot...!
He was an exec at the DC company responsible for stealing GayMuzzie's passport data from the State Department, with the culprit later SHOT IN THE HEAD in his car in front of his freaking church.
Meh..! Could happen to anyone, right? I mean, I'm sure that's completely coincidental, right?
And since that happened right before Obama appointed him to HEAD OF THE FREAKING CIA, I guess ole GayMuzzie just LOST HIS MIND, and up and APPOINTED HIM, right?
I mean, I'm sure that a career CIA operative wouldn't know a thing or two about control and leverage, and even if he did finally learn such things, then he would NEVAR apply those lessons to his own professional life, right?
Perish the thought..! I mean THAT would be nasty..!!
They say that in addition to the ole' LIBYAN MISSILE SMUGGLING thang he was rocking down there that Johnny gradually DID NOT LIKE some of the nightshirted gentlemen running around the dunes down there. And that there was some mission creep and that he, uh...
STARTED PINK MISTING a good number of 'em. And their buddies DID NOT LIKE THAT.
If memory serves me right the entire arms trade through Turkey matter was quite complicated. They had two terrorist groups fighting for them in Syria. One had links to Al Qeada and one I think had links to the Muslim Brotherhood. Supposedly Stevens was set to make a decision on which group got what from the latest ship to sail into the Turkish port loaded with arms from Libya. My initial guess was that Al Qeada was not going to take no for an answer. Hence the attackers were seen wearing Al Qeada emblems. But wearing Al Qeada emblems during an attack could very well be miss direction.
Well what will the bastard say when one of these shoots down a commercial airliner? "Oops"?
Of your two possibles I go with Iran paying the "whomevers" to screw up the deal (the "fake" kidnapping/swap for the blind sheik/ prez as hero for an October surprise) since the blind sheik is sunni no shiite.
The very possiblity that we would be arming al qaeda to depose assad (the outcome of which for Syria would be, what— another arab spring? They are Syrians) is appalling.
This weekend we are shutting our embassies in "muslim" countries (ain't that rich) against possible "al qaeda" attacks— how the hell do they relegate that with our weapons deals with them. How idiotic— and it is the real scandal. Obama has stated as "phony" the two scandals that really are appalling— this and the IRS political gestapo case. Hillary does not get away from either one, btw.
Al Qaeda is the CIA. Osama went left field, but the organization itself is CIA built and run.
Oxygen canister did it.
The "question" title of the article itself is an oxymoron.
Of course it was or WHY would the Obozo administration be going to the EXTREME lengths that it has to convince the public that there is "nothing here... move along citizens"...
Look at what was going on in the Middle East. Obama and Hillary were doing whatever they wanted to do. They helped overthrow the government of Libya. Where were the protests? Where were the outraged news reports? It looked like Hillary and Obama could get away with anything. What if you were head of a nation that considers itself as competition to the US? Would you want to smack Hillary and Obama in the mouth and draw the world's attention to Libya? I wonder what Putin would do?
Why did Hillary and Obama use US taxpayer funded personnel, equipment and facilities to overthrow the government of Libya? And if you think the Democrats are stalling on this because they don't want the info to come out that they were providing Libyan anti-aircraft missiles to the opposition in Syria, then ask your friends and neighbors about it. Ask them if they would be upset because our government might have supplied some old Libyan anti-aircraft missiles to the opposition in Syria. They'll yawn. And the Democrats know that. The Democrats aren't afraid that Americans will find out they were running guns. They are afraid of Americans finding out other shenanigans of Hillary and Obama. Why did Hillary and Obama use Us taxpayer funded personnel, equipment and facilities to overthrow the government of Libya?
Interesting that this is such 'breaking news'. My brother-in-law told me this a couple of days after the attack. I though he'd heard it from someone on FoxNews.

"Was Benghazi CIA Annex Running Guns To Syrian Rebels?"
More like coordinating and arming a centralized power structure in the Middle East, (the Muslim Brotherhood).
Somebody said no.
Way worse than Contra....this is giving arms to our enemies!!!
Amazing how much was posted on FR months ago about the number of the CIA spooks with boots on ground in Benghazi, and that they apparently had two missions:
1. Supplying the Islamos in ? Islam countries with the weapons from Crazy Kadafi's warehouses, and not just AK 47's.
2. Besides that mission, there apparently was a prison that would have made Gitmo look like a London High Tea in comparison. This prison was used to gather info from Islamos who raised flags of concern. Remember Obozo/Holder et al's hate Gitmo as part of their campaign and anti Bush rhetoric.
Forget about the so called plot to kidnap Stephens and trade him for the blind Islamo. That is another cover story like the Muslim anger against the so called video. Their real missions were #1 and #2 above.
Now, as we are learning the number of spooks with boots on ground in Benghazi. We will be learning about their support personnel. There would have been a probable ratio of ten to one in other support personnel in North Africa and other areas to ship the weapons and other monitoring/control mission control sites including Langley. That makes a whole lot of folks being monitored after signing non disclosure agreements to never talk about our real mission in Benghazi.
The Intrigue Surrounding The Secret CIA Operation In Benghazi Is Not Going Away
Business Insider via Yahoo News ^ | 3 Aug 2013 | Michael Kelley and Geoffrey Ingersoll
Posted on Saturday, August 03, 2013 7:31:35 AM by edpc
In eight months since an attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi left four Americans dead, a Republican-led investigation has focused on potential missteps by the White House and come away with nothing significant.
There has been little attention given, however, to covert actions by the Central Intelligence Agency that were partially uncovered during the September 11, 2012 attack.
That may be changing.
CNN's Jake Tapper argued this week that we should give more scrutiny to the CIA's presence in the Libyan port city.
Congressman Frank Wolf (R-Va.) said the same, according to CNN: "There are questions that must be asked of the CIA and this must be done in a public way."

Thanks for your reply. "I see the Limbaugh Theorem rearing its head with this sentence."
Please help an old man. What is the "Limbaugh Theorem" re Benghazi.
The "Limbaugh Theorem" is that Obama is not responsible for anything that happens in his own administration. In that quote it looks like it's all the CIA's fault, or at least that's how it's being set up.

How to: Customize the Office Fluent Ribbon by Using a Visual Basic COM Add-in
The ribbon component of the Microsoft Office Fluent user interface in the 2007 and 2010 releases of the Microsoft Office suites gives users a flexible way to work with Office applications. Ribbon Extensibility (RibbonX) uses a simple, text-based, declarative XML markup to create and customize the ribbon.
The code example in this topic shows how to customize the ribbon in Office, no matter what document is open. In the following steps, you create application-level customizations by using a managed COM add-in, and you create the add-in in Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 by using Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0. The project adds a custom tab, a custom group, and a custom button to the ribbon. To complete the procedure, you perform the following tasks.
Create a COM add-in project in Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0 that works with Word 2007.
Add a reference to the IRibbonExtensibility interface.
Implement the only member of the interface, GetCustomUI.
Add the XML customization markup code.
Add the subroutine that is called when the button is clicked.
Test the project.
Troubleshoot the project, if necessary.
Create the COM Add-in in Visual Basic 6.0
In this step you create a COM add-in by using an add-in designer.
Start Microsoft Visual Basic® 6.0 and select Addin as the project type. This adds a designer class to the project (Connect) and a form (frmAddin).
In the Project Explorer window, right-click Connect and then select View Object to open the Designer window. Select Microsoft Word from the Applicationlist.
In the Initial Load Behavior list, select Startup.
In the Project Explorer, right-click MyAddin and then in the Property window, change the name of the add-in to RibbonSampleVB.
Remove frmAddin from the project.
From the Project window, right-click the Connect item and select view code.
Remove all of the code in the designer's code window. This code works for Visual Basic add-ins but not Microsoft Office add-ins.
Add the following statement to the OnConnection method to obtain a reference to Word when the add-in loads:
Set oWD = Application
The next step is optional. If you want to make sure that your add-in is loading when you start Word, you can add the following statement to the OnConnection procedure to be notified that it has. Once you are satisfied that the add-is being loaded, you can remove the line and rebuild the project.
MsgBox "My Addin started in " & Application.Name
Add a Reference to the IRibbonExtensibility Interface
At the top of the code window, add the following statements to set aside memory for the Word Application object that you added earlier, and to create a reference to the ribbon.
Option Explicit Dim oWD As Object Implements IRibbonExtensibility
Implement the IRibbonExtensibility Interface
In this step, you implement the IRibbonExtensibilty interface's only member, GetCustomUI. Add the following procedure at the bottom of the code window.
Public Function IRibbonExtensibility_GetCustomUI(ByVal RibbonID As String) As String IRibbonExtensibility_GetCustomUI = GetRibbonXML() End Function
This procedure calls the GetRibbonXML method that, as its name implies, returns the customization XML to the GetCustomUI method which then adds it to the ribbon to implement when the add-in loads.
Retrieve the XML Customization Code
In this step, you add the GetRibbonXML function. Here, the customization code is stored in a String variable that is returned to the GetCustomUI method.
Public Function GetRibbonXML() As String Dim sRibbonXML As String sRibbonXML = "<customUI xmlns=""http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2006/01/customui"" >" & _ "<ribbon>" & _ "<tabs>" & _ "<tab id=""CustomTab"" label=""My Tab"">" & _ "<group id=""SampleGroup"" label=""Sample Group"">" & _ "<button id=""Button"" label=""Insert Company Name"" size=""large"" onAction=""InsertCompanyName"" />" & _ "</group >" & _ "</tab>" & _ "</tabs>" & _ "</ribbon>" & _ "</customUI>" GetRibbonXML = sRibbonXML End Function
Add the Procedure That Is Called When You Click the Button
Add the procedure that gets called when you click the custom button:
Public Sub InsertCompanyName(ByVal control As IRibbonControl) ' Inserts the specified text at the beginning of a range. Dim MyText As String Dim MyRange As Object Set MyRange = oWD.ActiveDocument.Range MyText = "Microsoft Corporation" ' Inserts text at the beginning ' of the active document. MyRange.InsertBefore (MyText) End Sub
This procedure creates a reference to a range in the active document and then inserts the company name text into the range.
Test the Project
In this step, you test the add-in.
To make sure the code compiles without error, on the Run menu, click Start with Full Compile.
Once the code compiles without error, save the project and create the RibbonSampleVB.dll by clicking the File menu and then clicking Make RibbonSampleVB.dll.... The designer registers the add-in for you.
Start Word. You should see the My Tab tab to the right of the other tabs.
Click the tab and then click Insert Company Name to insert the company name at the cursor.
Troubleshoot the Project
If you do not see the My Tab tab when you start Word, you might need to add an entry to the Windows registry by completing the following steps. The next few steps contain information about how to modify the registry. Before you modify the registry, be sure to back it up and make sure that you understand how to restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up, restore, and edit the registry, search for the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: 256986 Description of the Microsoft Windows Registry.
On the desktop, click Start, click Run, and then type regedit.
From the Registry tab, navigate to the following registry key for the add-in: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\Word\AddIns\RibbonXSampleVB.Connect
If the RibbonXSampleVB.Connect key does not exist, you can create it. To do so, right-click the Addins folder, point to New, and then click Key. Name the key RibbonXSampleVB.Connect. Add a LoadBehavior DWord and set its value to 3.

Lonegan: End property tax rebates
Don't expect Steve Lonegan, candidate for the Republican nomination for governor, to be among those giving a hard time to Gov. Jon Corzine should the governor propose eliminating property tax rebates for all but senior citizens next week.
To Lonegan, that wouldn't be going far enough. At a Statehouse news conference today to talk about budget cutting and government restructuring, he mentioned — after his PowerPoint-powered prepared remarks ended, some 10 minutes into his Q&A with reporters — that, by the way, he'd eliminate property tax rebates altogether. (A full recap of today's policy proposals will be posted on this blog later.)
Acknowledging that such a position on rebates is "politically incorrect" and would overshadow the message he intended on delivering, Lonegan said reducing the $2.1 billion the state budgeted for rebates this year (along with eliminating four state departments and other moves) would help cut state spending and offset planned income, sales and corporate tax cuts. He says he'll reduce state spending, currently $31.6 billion after Corzine's mid-year budget cuts, down to $25.5 billion.
Here are some quotes on rebates:
"The rebate system is a poor, ineffective government policy and actually a destructive government policy."
"The rebate system is poor economic and poor government policy and ineffective and has been nothing but a sham since it first started under Brendan Byrne. We see it come and go, come and go. And Jim McGreevey raised the top-end tax and guaranteed the rebates. And Florio raised the tax, and he guaranteed the rebates. And what's the first thing on the chopping block? It's the rebates.
"The rebate program should be gone for good. And if I had my way, I'd like to see it ended forever, and I'll bet you if I put this on the ballot, the voters of New Jersey would make a constitutional amendment to kill it forever.
"The only rebate that should ever occur from a state government is when that government operates at a surplus, a true surplus, and refunds the surplus to its taxpayers, and that should be done through tax cuts, like reducing to a flat rate income tax rate as I talked about.
"I do not intend on supporting the concept of a rebate, whether it's politically correct or a vote-buying grab or not. This state can no longer continue to function under this kind of income redistribution program. So rebates are gone. And that accounts for a whole big chunk of getting this budget down to where it should be. But in return for phony rebates and income redistribution plans, we're going to create a dynamic and growing economy."
"I'm going to be parting company with a lot of people on this whole rebate plan, because these politicians are shaking in their boots when they talk about rebates. They thought they came up with some great way of buying votes at election time, sending out a check and say 'Look at what a great job we did for you.' The state debt has gone from $11 billion in 1995 to $40 billion today, the state budget has grown two times the rate of inflation, but we're proud to send out rebate checks.
"It's shameful. It's absolutely shameful. Because the money for those rebates, you know where it came from? It came from that debt. They bonded to future generations. They borrowed the unearned wages of our unborn children to send out rebate checks and to buy votes. I will not be party to that."
