Murdoch predicts death of
print unions ..."but I do certainly see the day when more people will be buying their newspapers on portable reading panels than on crushed trees". "Then we’re going to have no paper, no printing plants, no unions," said Mr Murdoch, who battled printing unions at his Wapping plant in London more than 20 years ago. "It’s going to be great." Workers at Boeing's Charleston plant vote out union! Workers at Boeing's 787 fuselage assembly plant in Charleston, S.C. have decisively voted to get rid of the Machinists union as their bargaining representative with the company. The vote was 199 for decertification of the International Association of Machinists (IAM) union against 68 for retaining it. [EDIT] This needs to occur all over this country. It is time for the unions to go. They have as their executives admitted communists and they have done enough damage to our country and our economy. Give the unions the boot! Soros: Republic Enemy #1 Is it possible to lay the global financial meltdown, the radicalizing of the Democratic Party, and America’s moral decline, at the feet of one man? It is indeed possible. Norway's leftist gov't poised to stay in power Norway's left-leaning government appeared to have narrowly won re-election Monday after using oil money to shield the Nordic welfare state from the global recession, near-complete results showed. WHITE STUDENT BEATEN ON SCHOOL BUS; CROWD CHEERS Belleville West High School student was beaten aboard a bus on the way to school Monday, and a police spokesman said the beating could be racially motivated. The 17-year-old victim was white and the teen assailants were black. Police released a video of the beating, which shows the victim being punched repeatedly while other students on the bus gather to watch, some cheering. It doesn't appear that the victim did anything to provoke an attack and tried only to defend himself. So far, Obama's failing miserably Barack Obama’s initial approach to the office of the presidency has been as grandiose as Bush’s was restrained. It’s not hard to recall that he ran as a transformative candidate, promising sweeping, though somewhat fuzzy, 'change" during the campaign. Democrats Plan to Move Against Joe Wilson House Democrats reaffirmed plans to take up a resolution as early as Tuesday afternoon scolding defiant Republican Rep. Joe Wilson, who shocked colleagues by yelling "You lie!" during President Barack Obama's address to Congress last week. House Rules May Permit Joe Wilson's Outburst Rep. Joe Wilson may have violated good taste when he yelled "You lie!" at President Barack Obama last week. But did he break any specific House rules? The answer is more complicated than it seems, and the House's Democratic leaders were discussing late Monday what to do next. The rules that some initially cited don't appear to apply. Obama chief: Embryos are 'just a handful of cells' There is no moral concern regarding cloning human beings since human embryos, which develop into a baby, are "only a handful of cells," argued President Obama's newly confirmed regulatory czar, Cass Sunstein. Students Given 'Miranda Warning' Before Pledge of Allegiance? It's a new school year, but an old fight is brewing in American classrooms. Teachers and administrators around the country are scratching their heads once again over the Pledge of Allegiance. US worried about Venezuelan arms buildup... Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez said Sunday that Russia has opened a $2.2 billion line of credit with which his country could buy weapons. He said Venezuela needed more arms because it felt threatened by Colombia's decision to give U.S. troops greater access to its military bases. Former Leftist Activist, Turned FBI Informant, Pulls Back the Curtain On ACORN I first experienced ACORN in post-Katrina New Orleans. I was part of a relief organization, Common Ground Relief, which had been delivering much needed aid to the 9th Ward, an area that had been hit especially hard by the flood waters and by neglect. Rumors immediately began surfacing, questioning our motives and intentions. I was very confused by these rumors. Who was behind them? How could anyone question the vital work we were doing in the community? Get Schooled: Nickelodeon & friends want your kids to "change the system" Longtime readers are aware of the left-wing bent of children’s TV network Nickelodeon. They p.c.-i-fied the Alamo in 2005. They went moonbatty on the military and the war on terror in 2007. And they pushed pro-illegal alien amnesty propaganda in 2008. Well, they’re at it again, along with liberal philanthropists, bloggers, and the Viacom conglomerate - launching a new initiative in conjunction with President Obama’s education campaign: First Lady Asks GW Students for 100,000 Hours Service First lady Michelle Obama has promised to be the 2010 Commencement speaker if the GW community completes 100,000 hours of community service this year, University spokeswoman Michelle Sherrard said this morning. [EDIT]: Peasants, serve your queen! Will Obama’s DOJ Block Investigation of ACORN? For several years, a few members of Congress (oddly enough at one time even consummate leftist Rep. John Conyers D-MI) have been attempting to investigate ACORN. They have been unsuccessful. This is, by some very viable accounts, due to the fact that Dictator-in-Chief Obama has a long and lucrative relationship with the group that is now being proved to be a wide-reaching criminal enterprise. The Democrat-run Congress has ordered (by Obama fiat perhaps?) that NO federal investigation of ACORN will be allowed to proceed. Sandra Day O'Connor: End Judge Elections in Wash. Retired Justice Sandra Day O'Connor spoke Monday at a Seattle University Law School conference. She told a sold-out audience that threats to judicial independence are rising exponentially as more and more money pours into judicial races around the country. Census Bureau Severs Ties With ACORN The Census Director has sent a letter to the National Headquarters of ACORN notifying the group that it will no longer have a role in conducting the 2010 census. ACORN had previously been tapped to help with low level data gathering. Venezuela to Develop Nuclear Energy With Russian Help Venezuela President Hugo Chavez said the South American country plans to develop a nuclear energy program with Russia and doesn’t want to build an atomic bomb. [EDIT] Where have I heard that before? 'Pimp & hooker' catch B'klyn staff -- This 'SHOULD' say someting... ACORN workers in two other cities, Baltimore and Washington, DC, had already fallen hooker, line and sinker for the hidden-camera sting operation by two conservative activists. Obama sets stage for using budget maneuver to pass health reform By offering Republicans olive branches during his address to Congress on Wednesday, Obama has set up a win-win situation. If GOP lawmakers embrace compromise, a healthcare bill would pass Congress easily. But the more likely scenario is that Republicans will continue to oppose Obama’s plan, and the president later this fall will be able to note he tried to strike a deal with the GOP but could not. [EDIT] Known as a Chicago style 'SET UP' The Lame Stream Media absolutely refuse to report the facts Realize American, that there were "tens of thousands" of Tea Parties across America yesterday which estimated figures will be millions of Americans waking up, and taking a stand against Socialism. I have been an activist since the early 90s, and I have never seen anything like this before. We are witnessing an American Historical Event and the media REFUSE to let you in on this event. Why? Because the Media are complicit in a Socialist takeover of America, participating in the destruction of our Free Market system, and individualism as we know. Get the U.S. Out of the U. N and the U. N. Out of the U. S. This treacherous and corrupt organization is not worth one penny of our money, nor one gram of our air. Working together for the best interests of America, both parties should concentrate on rebuilding all areas of governance that has suffered from the traitorous efforts of the current Administration to bring America to its knees and delivery efforts to foreign sources, principally the United Nations. Poll: News media's credibility plunges to new low Nearly two-thirds of Americans think the news stories they read, hear and watch are frequently inaccurate, according to a poll released Sunday by the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press. That marks the highest level of skepticism recorded since 1985, when this study of public perceptions of the media was first done. White House - Tea Party Protesters 'Wrong,''Not Mainstream' "I don't think it's indicative of the nation's mood," Axelrod said on CBS' "Face the Nation." "You know, I don't think we ought to be distracted by that. My message to them is, they're wrong."
