I Think We're Forgetting Something!!!!!!!

Sleep tight, Sweet cheeks!
Tonight's the night.....for makin' LOVE!

Healthy Habits Accepts Food Stamps



Along with staples like bread, milk, and baby formula, we can now add Echinacea, Soy Milk, and a myriad of other non-essentials that can be purchased with food stamps at our local 'Healthy Habits Health Food Store.' Don't get me wrong, I think we all should eat healthy, but not with tax payers' dollars. If you are like me, I only go to the health food store for things I can't find anywhere else and I go knowing that I will be paying top dollar for the specialization a health food store offers. If I deny myself the privilege of shopping high end, why then should I pay taxes that fund food stamps that allow high end purchases like health food items? It is allowances like this that make me deplore our tax payer system.

Missing Person Found

Uncle J Explains 2008 The Year in Review

Media Monday - 081229 A Quasi-Fictitious Year in Review

It seems that Daily Times reporter Greg Latshaw harbors a repressed desire to be a novelist.  Gore Vidal, with his gift for mixing a little historical fact with a lot of fiction, seems to be a key role model.  How else could explain Sunday's little "Year in Review" piece about the Wicomico County Council?

Not content with his usual mix of biased, selective reporting and "he said, she said" journalism, Latshaw weaves a tale that bears no semblance to the reality that was Wicomico County in 2008.  The tall tales begin with his lead:
In a year that began with a flap over pricey pens, Wicomico County Council members agreed to a landmark development agreement, struck down a police labor code law and thoroughly investigated the area's liquor wholesaler. (emphasis mine)
The flap wasn't over pricey pens, but about the proper use of the taxpayers' money; along with the arrogance of some who actually claimed that the money wasn't the taxpayers'.  The County Council did not strike down a police labor code law.  They ENACTED a labor code for the Sheriff's office.  County Executive Rick Pollitt vetoed the bill and his veto was overridden.  As for the dispensary, there wasn't much of an investigation given that the board members refused to come and answer questions.  Documents were only supplied after they were threatened with court action.     Read More ...

EMERGENCY ROOM....

The other day, I needed to go to the emergency room.
Not wanting to sit there for 4 hours, I put on my old Air Force fatigues and stuck a patch that I had downloaded off the Internet onto the front of my shirt.

When I went into the E.R., I noticed that 3/4 of the people got up and left. I guess they decided that they weren't that sick after all. Cut at least 3 hours off my waiting time.

Here's the patch. Feel free to use it the next time you're in need of quicker emergency service.

It also works well if you ever have to use a Laundromat.

Maybe this is why American Newspapers are going Bankrupt

Pravda, the Russian newspaper has some very interesting things to say about why American Newspapers are going bankrupt... Is it possibly that they no longer print the truth?

Or at least explore the truth?

Pravda's writer asserts that the job of the media in the US has not been to report the news but rather shape public opinion.

I have written countless articles about the legitimacy of Barak Obama's forthcoming presidency, his campaign, and his relationship with organizations like ACORN, yet when I write these things like most American writers, I have been criticized and accused of being a 'wingnut' or a 'disgruntled angry conservative', or a 'loon'.

Every time the topic of his legitimacy comes up in the MSM it is to ostrasize the individual who would bring it up, and bring further worship and bring homage to the Chosen One.

Now the rest of the world has gotten wind of our 'Constitutional Crisis' and are starting to ask some of these same questions.

It is an absolute shame, that penetrating questions are asked in a Russian? newspaper where there is no 'free press'!
Yet our journalist would be fired for asking such questions!?!

I encourage you to read the article in full on Pravda and also follow the links that are provided.

I am not the only person asking these questions and we all need to be concerned, and I mean really concerned about the ramifications of what every single policy, law, treaty, appointment, pardon etc. etc. would mean if he takes office without putting his eleigibility questions to bed once and for all. Because if he is not eligible, then all of the above will be rendered null and void throughout the world.

"Every American should learn their lesson and never listen to another major media outlet again. Over 30 large newspapers in America are for sale and no takers. Some have cut back on deliveries and some will close. Some of these newspapers have been in business for over 100 years. In less than 10 years of Political Correct “newspeak”, the editors have managed to destroy their companies. The New York Times recently announced that they are seeking a loan against their HQ building which they own 50% of. They need to borrow $250 million. And all they need to do to pay it back is to sell 500 million newspapers. The Major Media writers and smiling faces on TV get paid a lot of money to lie to us, but that should not exclude them from ridicule and contempt from their family and neighbors. It should also not exclude them from fraud charges. What kids would want to play with their kids?

The current President of the United States of America has the opportunity to leave his legacy as the President who preserved the United States of America and its Constitution. All he has to do is to walk out onto the steps of the White House and announce, “If the United States House and Senate, if the US Supreme Court, Federal and State Courts from coast to coast will not respect their sworn duty to uphold and protect our Constitution, I will. By a Presidential Executive Order, signed by me today, Barack Hussein Obama, or whatever his name is, is formally and legally prohibited from becoming the President of The United States. Effective immediately”. That would end all controversy and destroy all threats to the US Constitution. "

Bush refusing to leave the White House was one of the things that was concerning the Left Wingers last year when he signed the extension of the Patriot Act and the Military Commisions Act. By signing these two documents he essentially voided the election process of our Republic.

So what is worse folks, a man who won't leave the office of the President and live under another period of time with this man at the helm, or allow a man who hasn't even submitted the amount of documentation that you or I have to submit in order to obtain a Maryland drivers liscense, or obtain college admittance.

What's worse is now Patrick Fitzgerald has found through court house records that the house that the Obama family lives in, in Chicago that was purchased through a questionable transaction tax bills actually are held in the name of Tony Rezko's attorney.
For those of you not keeping up; Rezko is the slum lord who raised tons of money for Obama who now finds himself sitting in a jail cell on the south side of Chicago awaiting sentencing that has been delayed twice because federal prosecutors are taking him out to lunch everyday so that he can testify about his knowledge of Illinois Gov. Blogo, and now apparently Mr. Obama as well.

America needs to take a hard look at what we really want from the media, and we need to start demanding better.
There is no doubt that until newspapers actually start printing the real stories they will continue to go down.
It is not the job of the media to draw conclusions it is the job of the news media to ask questions and when answers are found to report them. But above all, ask the questions and report the events.
We may not always like what is reported but at least we may get more than one side to the story.

Bell Ringer Photos

"Dateline, Dec. 22, 2008, The Deadly Slime.

Joe,

I have been noticing the line in the DT asking for photos of bell ringers and clicking on it occasionally. I just checked again, and NO ONE HAS SENT IN A PHOTO AS OF NOW! Today is the 27th!

I guess people can see all the good photos @ SBYNEWS!

Barry G"

Thanks for the heads up Barry. They had at least 27 days to get out there and take pictures and rather than EARN the money they bring in, they want people to give freely and NOT be paid the $40.00 per shot they pay any Freelance Photographer. I mean, hey, why not. They sell the paper, collect money for advertising and then ask those same people to provide photos for free so they can charge them to read about it a week later in their paper. SUCKERS!

The Salisbury Marina Literally Looks Like Sh!t




Between seagull droppings and carcases lying on the pier, no one has made any attempt to clean things up. So the big question is, (just like the last time we posted this info) does it take Sallisbury News and its readers to bring this information forward every time before the Mayor, Comegys and Smith get off their lazy azzes and take a tour around the City to see who's doing what?

Even the Boat Parade immediately turned around and headed back to the Country Club because they weren't going to dock at this location, get out and listen to the crunched beneath their feet of dead bodies. However, keep in mind, this is the same Marina the Council continues to back up financially to the tune of I believe $35,000.00 a year because they're failing. SELL IT NOW and get someone in there that will keep it clean and eventually turn a profit.

Two Years Ago Today


It was two years ago today Camden Resident Tim Spies made his announcement to run for City Council. As many will recall, the Mayor made statements in which some called out right lies during his run and the Daily Times actually allowed the remarks to be printed without checking the validity of her remarks. Life in Salisbury would have been so much better if Tim were on the Council instead of Gary Comegys. I can't wait to see the comments on this Post.
