So we have new blood in Washington, whats going to change-more economic decline

O'Bama surfed into the White House on a tsunami of a wave called change.  And legitimately he can point to a few things that his administration has accomplished.  Apparently however what he can not do is stand up to the bankers friends.  And so now, like so many other Americans, he knows what it is like to

lose his HOUSE!

“Taj Mahal” courthouse, Florida legislators, judges, FSU money-just imagine if they worked for us

Although some legislators have tried to plead ignorance by claiming they never read the bill (which is an issue unto itself) that allocated the money to be spent on the " Taj Mahal" others claim that the judges and FSU allumni lobbied so hard for the money their is no way anybody could not have known about it.

When it comes to saving lives on the "killing fields" Florida calls public highway we get spit. When it comes to providing opulence to government and "governors", all the stops are pulled out. But then we have been saying all along that "the people," the "common workingman/woman," are nothing more than a vehicle by which those in power finance and perpetuate their corruption.

The joke is, "we" reward the exalted nobles by voting them to ever higher positions.

Free Meals for Military and Veterans

McCormick & Schmick's - For the 11th year in a row, the 87 locations in 25 states are offering free entrees to veterans on Sunday, Nov. 7th. The chain also requests military ID and highly recommends reservations. The promotion is on Sunday instead of Veterans Day, "because it allows vets to bring their families who might not be available during the week," CEO Bill Freeman says.

 

Golden Corral - Is offering free buffet meals - including beverage and dessert - to current military and veterans on Monday, Nov. 16, from 5 to 9 p.m. No military ID is required for its ninth annual Military Appreciation Monday, according to Dolly Mercer, national events manager. The event is held on this date, she says, "so we don't interfere with Veterans Day activities."

 

Applebee's - Is offering a free entree on Wednesday to veterans and all active-duty military from 11 a.m. to midnight at all 1,900 locations. Although Applebee's requests some kind of military ID, "We're not going to argue with folks who might forget to bring it," says Sam Rothschild, senior vice president of operations.

 

Krispy Kreme Doughnut Corporation - Is offering free doughnuts to all Veterans and active military personnel. Just visit any participating Krispy Kreme to redeem your free doughnuts. No identification required but keep it available anyway.
