Mandates turn states to beggars
Thinking Right’s weekend free-for-all. Pick a topic:
● Leadership on the spill: This president stacks words the way a college freshman stacks beer cans — sometimes creatively, sometimes artistically, often boastfully and sometimes to impressive heights. But ultimately, they’re just empty vessels.
● In the tragic account of the teenage twins accused of murdering their mother, this is the full reference in nearly a full page of the difficulties of raising two out-of-control daughters: “She [the murdered mother] had raised them alone for years; their father was not a presence in their lives.” The greatest mistake females of child-bearing age make is to make babies with males who are so easily written out of their life stories.
● D.C. Royalty: The district office of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi costs taxpayers $18,736 per month, reports Roll Call and Fox News.
● While Georgia Board of Regents Chancellor Erroll Davis is to be commended for instructing college presidents to abide by the law and to make certain that illegals pay out-of-state tuition, and while President Barack Obama is, symbolically, policing the borders by sending 1,200 troops to the U.S.-Mexico border, they point to the source of the public’s greatest irritation with those in authority. It’s the belief that when the heat’s off, immigration-related laws are nullified and replaced with symbolic enforcement. Government has no credibility on illegal immigration.
● News from the “Y’all Are Making This Up, Aren’t You?” Department: A 66-year-old chief Superior Court judge in Fayette County, now resigned, was caught having sex with an assistant public defender, 49. In a car. Parked in a subdivision. After which, she represented 225 defendants in his courtroom. No foul, reports the district attorney’s investigators. In a car? Parked in a subdivision?
● The Georgia Association of Educators declines to endorse a candidate for governor in the primary. Question: If unionists won’t bell that cow, how will we know which one to watch?
● As several readers point out, Emily’s List can’t be expected to promote conservative women in public office, as I urged last week, because it only funnels women’s money to Democratic women who oppose the pro-life view. The point to remember: Know what organizations are actually promoting and doing when they profess to advocate for women, the elderly, veterans, children, education, police, firefighters and other popular wallet-openers.
● There is a solution to the problem of states, including Georgia, “relying more on feds to pay state bills,” as the Sunday headline notes: (1) Congress should stop mandating programs for states to fund; (2) the feds should stop sucking states dry of tax resources so that state and local governments could have the tax capacity to fund local and state priorities.
● Wow! In Atlanta, $28.77 of money raised per child for education goes to staff travel. In Clayton, Cobb, Fulton and Gwinnett, it’s about $11 or less. During this budget-crunching period, hand-wringers say any cuts to “education” inevitably lead to front-line teacher layoffs and diminished quality. T’aint necessarily so. It should be a time to get rid of weak teachers and the least-productive spending so that schools emerge better on the other side.
● Good to see that taxpayer champion John Sherman, president of the Fulton County Taxpayers Foundation, is getting the attention and respect his work for the last 15 years warrants. Most do-gooders trying to modernize and reduce the costs of government get worn down by politicians and bureaucrats until they slink away, exhausted. He has the stamina and the determination to fight on against the odds, and despite setbacks, just as Sandy Springs Mayor Eva Galambos and a few others did — until they prevailed.

Good evening all. I may have to differ with our honored host. Whereas I formerly called our fearless leader “Chancey Gardener,” I’m beginning to think “Vito Corleone” more apt.
The district office of Nancy Pelosi is the least of the unnecessary expenses she imposes on taxpayers.
I would have omitted the last three words of the fourth item.
Pretty good when an old goat can keep up with a woman 17 years his junior. Suppose she was merely representing her clients with all the enthusiasm she could embrace.
I admit that my respect increases when any private group declines to wade into politics. Suggests they are paying attention to something truly important.
Dear Jim, your argument on Emily’s list would have been valid against any of 100 “public interest” groups. Like AARP. As if I’ll ever buy anything with their name attached.
Mandates are integral to leftist theory. Since the local yokels are not smart enough to know what their citizenry needs, the overlords have to tell them what to do to/for us. Forget eliminating mandates, the only real solution is to eliminate the overlords.
You really ought to think about this – if you eliminate the travel budgets, those worthless administrators will be hanging around, inflicting their “wisdom” on impressionable minds. No, we’re better off if they are partying out of town.

Has the NRA ever endorsed a liberal? Why the weekly passages about Emily’s List?
Don’t see how sending troops to the border is all of a sudden symbolic. Wasn’t that when Bush did it.
Somehow, someway, Wootie finds a way to blame the feds for state government taking their money. If they don’t want it, don’t take it. I’m sure Wootie will be saying the same thing next year when Barnes is in office.

Wootie, how are things? Still writing and sourcing Faux News, I see… How’s THAT working for you? I agree with the previous blogger, why is it now “symbolic” when President Obama sends troops to the border versus Dubya doing it? Smells kinda funny… It is apparent that no matter WHAT the President does, you and the other Republicans (slash) Tea Partiers (slash) Conservatives (slash) GOP’ers (o.k. I made the point), find some ground to bash him. A lot to be said for team effort…
As for education, I think if they trimmed the executive offices and ceased the construction of the palaces that most Boards occupy, the State would immediately see a closing of the financial void. It seems that the more administrators there are, there is more corruption. The losers in this current system are the students.
As for the teacher’s union not endorsing a gubenatorial candidate, that speaks volumes. Go Barnes!!
And for the oil disaster in the Gulf, its a shame that you and so many other GOP/Repubs/Conservs/TP’ers, to include some of my liberal faction, harp on the President’s handling of this. Short of him donning a wetsuit, being ceremoniously combat dropped into the leak zone, and single-handedly wrangling the spill and successfully capping it, you folks would still find fault with him returning to the shore with sludge on him. Incredible. This is and will always be BP’s fault. This is and will always be BP’s fault with the full throated endorsement of the GOP/Repubs/Conservs/TP’ers with a few paid off Dems. This disaster has never happened before at that depth. It NEVER should have been allowed and YOU and the rest of the Right know it. “Drill, baby, Drill,” was the Republicans battle cry, now you expect us to join you in your bashing of the President when you supported this lunacy?
Really, Wootie, although Kyle Wingfield is a complete “Wingnut,” and can’t hold your briefcase, retirement is something you should truly consider. And serioiusly consider taking the rest of your political allies with you. In short, just gooooooooooo!!

Curiously, in a supposed anti-incumbent year, most of the departing are not retiring but seeking higher office. We may recycle more than we replace. The bad news is that a frustrating 114 seats still have but one contestant. Two of them aren’t even incumbents, meaning they will affect state policy without being vetted by voters. And I have to think that we’d be better off if many had run instead for the Legislature — and cut down on the number running unopposed. Georgia’s problems are numerous. They aren’t going away. There’s too much stale thinking at the Capitol, on both sides of the aisle. New voices would be welcome.

Wow Jim who pissed you off last night. I am glad to have a President when tragedy happens takes time to gather information, listen to advisors and get the right people in place. I remember when “Super Maverick”, John McCain went to the Senate floor to save the nation’s economy by trying to stop the election. He had no agenda, no information or nothing and the “MAVERICK” came out looking like a fool by acting on emotions instead of facts. I guess Obama is supposed to have super powers like SuperMan and leap the ocean at a single bound when he his telepath powers told him that the well was about to blow.
Wow 2 kids killed their mother because their father was not in their lives. How can you explain the Mendendez brothers who killed their mother/father while they were sleeping and it became a novel and a movie of the week.

I am no fan of BP, but I know extortion when I see it. If it weren’t the President doing it, he could be indicted and convicted of a felony. The legal cap AS SET BY CONGRESS is $75 Million. I know that cap probably helped create the risk taking by the oil company which resulted in this spill (along with failure of government regulators to shut it down after 790 violations last year), so this government is complicit with the oil company, and now wants to shift all the blame and cost to it. Obama embarrasses me and this country.
–About the mom and no dad. Well, I had kids in wedlock and dad left. I raised them alone. Both are successful and productive adults. But then, I stayed on them, loved them and disciplined them–and worked full time. It can be done. Just a little more difficult sometimes.

Prior to integration, single mothers experienced few difficulties in raising sons and daughters. Fathers were easily written out of their lives due to the trials of life. But there was no such animal as mothers rearing children alone for years. The entire black community, women, men, grandmothers, grandfathers, etc served as mothers and fathers. Absolutely no African American children fell through the cracks.
In the overwhelming majority of cases, communal parenting was preferable to the traditional father and mother because each child experienced intimate supervision and care from a variety of people— educators to domestic workers – farmers to shop owners etc. And as a result, black children discovered the unique sacred humanity of each person regardless of class or profession. Elitist African Americans were a story unto themselves. They weren’t socialized by our community.
Fast forward 42 years. The greatest mistake African Americans made was to allow the elitist traitors of our race to seduce us into accepting the doctrine of integration and blame the horrific outcome on slavery, racism, and black fathers. Leading up to father’s day, as we speak, the mystery of iniquity is already at work. It’s creeping into houses and leading captive silly brainwashed black women and children in their formative years, laden with sins; attempting in vain to conceal their treachery.
Be gone— what the future holds I spy—Be gone— “I think we better go”—-Be gone you dirty wicked rats!
Words of warning to Americans: If the Tea Party and Americans of good will allow the traitors in their race to seduce them into accepting the integrationist New World Order, the banks and the corporations which grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their forefathers conquered.
Educated integrationist African Americans, who work for people that are determined to impose that fate upon Americans, are extremely suicidal.

By the way, about that expensive set up Pelosi has. We have a man running for congress for the 4th Dist., Larry Cause, who has as a platform item that Congress meet only rarely “in person” and that congressional sessions be held with the use of communications technology. It is done all the time in corporations to cut costs and time associated with travel. Think how much money would be saved. It would also make our congressional representatives a little less easy for those K Street Lobbiests to get access to. New times, new ideas.

Jim, you STILL screwed it up; Emily’s list is not women’s money. I know this is hard for you to believe, but there are actually men out there who don’t consider women and their bodies property.
Ironic that you start out by citing the tragic case of the woman murdered by her children, then proceed to bashing Emily’s list. Simple math shows Nikki Whitehead was not even 18 when she got pregnant. Perhaps you did the math too, since you referred to “females of child-bearing age.” Men were pretty much absent from the AJC story, aside from the boyfriend who was more than 30 years older than the mother he was dating. Oh, but it’s all due to the mistake of a “female of child-bearing age.”

Wonder what her and Woot would have been writing about this morning if that had happened? How this president is trying to stop private industry? And just imagine, “this government” is wanting to shift all the blame and cost to BP! The nerve of them, right Joan? Even though it was their shortcutting, cost-cutting measures that created this whole mess,the nerve of this president to hold them respnsible!

“The greatest mistake females of child-bearing age make is to make babies with males who are so easily written out of their life stories.”
So you’re pro-choice if the mother’s a murder victim or her own daughters 16 years later? You are a moron Jim Wooten! That’s the most insensitively insulting thing I’ve ever read!
You brought this up, defend your position! If that woman had wanted an abortion 16 year ago, you would not have wanted her to have that choice. But now that these twins are probable murderers, you want to give them the death penalty, or spend the rest of their young lives in prison, juvenile, or even a special unit for juvenile felons?
The stupidest thing men like the Jim Wooten assume is that mother’s and father’s purposefully “make babies” when the time is right, after walking the aisle on a Saturday in summer and landing successful office jobs!
I bet even Jim Wooten is the mistaken souvenir of his parents’ drunken New Years Eve. If you killed your parents it would have been your mother’s fault.

Or LEGISLATED out of their life stories.
Don’t forget, Mr. Wooten, you were a big champion of the State getting involved in child support.
Now it is just a sickening money grab. Many fathers are in jail. By federal law, child support debt can NEVER be forgiven. It doesn’t manner if you are unemployed, legs cut off in an accident, or NOTHING. You will pay what your were previously ordered to pay until you can get the money up to pay some lawyers to have it changed.(the FEDS match every state dollar collected). Sickening. And you were one of the ones beating their chests to make those “dead beat dads” pay up The programs have cost you, as a tax-payer, much more than just letting the few irresponsible single mothers game the system.
Regardless, I still respect my elders and I enjoy your columns. Hopefully, you can see where you might have made a mistake by asking the government to get involved in such a private matter.

The “weak” teachers you so easily want to dismiss may actually have been very “strong” at one point in the careers. Over time, the bar on test scores has steadily been raised, making it more difficult on older teachers to keep up. So I ask you, rather than fire a teacher, we need to be asking why does society keep raising the bar, since it’s just an artificial benchmark? What difference does it make, really, if someone’s SAT score is 1000 or 1200? In a competitive society, I guess there’s winners and losers, those who are expendible (and unnecessarily).

No sympathy for deadbeat dads here either, especially with Father’s Day around the corner. Losers who don’t pay child support should be in jail, period. And they shouldn’t be released until they pay up, get 3-4 months ahead, and get a vasectomy.
Millions of men take responsibility for their own kids, plus help with others. Uncles, stepfathers, little league coaches, firemen (who may risk their life to yank your kid out of a burning building) big brothers, and the like step up to the plate when other d00ds check out.

Jim, in your unbiased way, how did you miss the following? Care to comment?
If Barack Obama’s extraction of $20 billion from BP was—as Texas Republican Joe Barton called it – a “shakedown,” then what would Barton call the $14.4 million he has extracted during his career from oil and gas interests, electric utilities, the health sector, chemical manufacturers, finance and all the other industries forking over cash to him?
Barton is the top Republican on the House Energy and Commerce Committee, which has jurisdiction over drug companies, telecom, the automotive industry, mining, Hollywood and more. Both Republicans and Democrats on that committee rushed to distance themselves from Barton’s “shakedown” apology. Yet in the 2010 election cycle alone, members of that committee have already received $42 million from PACs and individuals. Their haul totaled $66 million during the 2008 cycle. Is it any wonder that the nickname for the committee, on the Hill and on K Street, is “the honey pot”?

From sea to shining sea, Integrationist African Americans are whining about the killing spree in Chicago and throughout the black community; and asking why is the African American church silent.
The African American Church for the most part is not responsible for the promotion and failure on integration. The average African American church thought it was a fool hearted idea. But well educated integrationist black persons thought it was a panacea. And they are directly responsible for the fratricide occurring in the African American community. Like Marcus Garvey, we practically begged the integrationist not to integrate black people into the larger society.
Here is the dilemma today. Many well educated Integrationist African Americans are paid a lot of money for supporting integration; blood money. And at the same time, their children suffer tremendously as a result of their ill-gotten gains; fratricide.
Integrationist African Americans shouldn’t question the silence of the African American church. They should enjoy their blood money and shut up!

Congratulations to the Tea Party! We have illegal aliens of every nationality and hue troubled and on the run; and our campaign has just begun. All of them should be pushed out of the country beginning today.
Of course they say there’re too many illegal aliens, 40 million, to forcibly send over the border. It’s an impossible task, they say. But according to our calculations, it would take only twenty years to physically remove every one. And if any legal Americans want to find another homeland, we will gladly assist them.
I know we can do it. We have the ingenuity. It took us only twenty years to forcibly remove 40 million legal babies from the United States via abortion.

McChrystal, who is ‘white’, American, and control the institutions capable of meeting the basic needs of Americans and people around the globe.

My mother was born in 1935. When she was pregnant in 1954, there is no way under the sun that an African American or white person would tell her to have an abortion. Or she has a right to choose to kill the baby or not. They would have told her that the Lord God Almighty said thou shall not kill, or murder.
Murdering babies in the United States didn’t commence until 1973, Roe vs. Wade. So we didn’t miss one.
Unfortunately, we got them all.

The problem we have – with such a huge geographic country, spread all over the globe (including territories), regulations that are passed most likely require the hiring of at least 70 people, with a salary of at least $50,000 per year. Laws passed by Congress should be short and sweet, letting the states add verbiage to further elucidated what is illegal behavior. THe local city & county should have the most descriptive laws, due to the fact that citizens have a lot more interaction with City Hall than the Georgia dome or DC. Also, we need to realize that Americans & people in general like using drugs, just like most Americans like to speed. Since most of the negative impact from using drugs are personal & individual damage, it seems that drug violators should only be fined like a speeding fine. If they are doing in their own home, who gives a rats ass? As soon as they start selling it, and of course don’t declare the income, then they need to get slammed for tax evasion. If they grow it just for personal use, then they most likely would never get punished.
