with 771 write in’s, too bad they weren’t in the Dem colume.

I wasn’t able to get this site to open up most of the night, from 7 till the call O won.

On second thought, maybe rovy didn’t have time to fix the numbers. So sad.
They are asking the decession desk why they called it. The Decession desk is comfortable with their call that the Prez won.

Congrats President Obama!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rove over at Fox is saying Ohio was called to soon and is having fits Fox called it for the Prez so soon.

Sickening! This treatment of Pfc. Bradley just sickens me. And this, among other reasons is why Obama will NOT get my vote. No more holding my nose and voting.

What sane person would want their child or grandchild to serve for these crazy maniacs?

Good article, thanks D. D.

I haven’t been tot he local Farmer’s Market but corn here at local veggie stands in my part of Mi is $5. a dozen, or $2.50 or $3.00 for half a dozen. The corn has missing kernels and tops that haven’t filled in with corn because of the drought. Not as juicy as the corn should be. People buying less corn than usual because of it. I agree, stop the making of ethanol with corn for now.

Here’s a video of George Bomar, the man in charge of changing the rain patterns in Texas and how they do it, where they do it, who pays for it, etc. Wonder which companies are in the areas getting the rain and which companies are in the areas NOT getting the rain. hmm

Weather Modification in Texas Admitted As Recent as July 2011 – August 28, 2011

Common sense says slow way down on fracking since it uses so much water and put corn that was to be used for ethenol in the grocery stores instead. I don’t understand why the companies that do these things haven’t planned to do this already.

One thing that bothers me is giving help to the food industry that puts pesticides, herbicides, and insecticides in our food, and geneticly modified food on our tables.

And has any research been done on the chemicals (seeding) that many countries put into clouds to make it rain? In what way does that harm us or effect the weather or environment?

Here’s what was said about Texas seeding clouds, sorry no year given on the article, only the month and day of Feb 7:

Some areas, like Texas, have held in there despite the skeptics’ sneers, and today cloud seeding is done over about a third of the Lone Star state, a region of some 45 million acres.

Texas claims to produce more rain, over a wider area, and for a longer duration because of its weather modification program, according to George Bomar, who wrote his doctoral dissertation on the subject in 1974. But why, then, hasn’t the technology flooded the world?

Very good article and thanks Dave.

I am not preferring the 1 year bill over the 5 year bill, just that why should they make a 5 year disaster bill. We should assess each years disasters, year by year.

Why do they need a 5 year drought relief bill instead of a 1 year bill?

The 1% working on WWIII reminds me of a quote from “Gangs of New York” movie:

“BOSS TWEED: Oh, I think he can. Whether it’s one man against another or a mob against the city, the mathematics remain the same. You never enjoyed the enlightenment of poverty, did you, Governor? If you had, you’d know you can always hire half the poor to kill the other half.:

Van, the issues in this post are so important to me that I will not hold my nose and vote for Dem’s who act like Rebubs just because I don’t want Repub’s to appoint SCJ’s. That scare tactic doesn’t work any more. I plan to spank the Dem party that I have been part of my entire adult life by voting for a Repub.

The election day in Wisc was the first day of the new repub drawn districts. And what a travesty the system is that allowed them to draw the districts. The elections and rules are broken and in great need of repair.

I wanted to add lines drawn by Repub’s.

Wisconsin: “April 2012 First municipal elections in newly created wards.
November 2012 First general election in newly created legislative and congressional boundaries.”
