How are all you liberals liking you pay check decrease. I wish all of you could have seen the complaints that I got when payroll completed pay over the last 2 weeks. It literally took about 99% of the people by surprise that their pay checks were substantially smaller. There was absolutely nothing I could have done to ease their pain. I also had to pay higher taxes but let me tell you it did not affect me one bit. I pushed the increase off on the produce line and I won't hire any new workers until after March and then I will do layoffs every January for 3 months. It's what needs to be done for a business to stay afloat; that is until Obamacare costs hit me when I have over 50 ppl.

Actually it was no surprise to it. In 2011 the Obama tax deal had taken money from the general fund and placed it in SS fund. In doing that it was announced a 2% tax holiday on SS. The tax was not extended as part of the Jan 2013 budget deal and had been put in place as temporary at the time anyway. . The Internal Revenue Service has directed employers to implement the lower 4.2% Social Security tax rate paid by employees no later than January 31, 2011. Additionally, employers are supposed to refund to their employees any excess tax withholding if they were using the old 6.2% rate during January; the IRS has instructed employers to refund the difference no later than March 31, 2011. http://taxes.about.com/od/payroll/a/Reduced-S... |

Why Are Liberals So Angry And Hateful? Sunday, November 20th, 2011 | Author: iker It does not take a psychoanalyst to see that people who are of the liberal political bent rarely smile, laugh or are pleasant to be around. If one watches the proceedings in the congress of our nation it is not hard to pick out the liberals seated there. Scowling faces and expressions are common place there. We must ask ourselves why this is the case. First, the ground zero of why this is true is that they are mostly, if not all, atheists. Folks who want to protect a culture of death have little to be optimistic about. These folks are rabid pro-abortionists which translated means,“I want as many pregnant women to kill their babies as possible, especially ethnic groups.” They also want to see old people, who no longer contribute to society, to be euthanized so that they will not be a drain on our economy. They want to see the mentally and physically handicapped put out of their misery. http://www.settingtherecordstraight.org/set/... |

1 posted at 1:16 pm on August 1, 2012 by Rob Bluey Mike Huckabee, the Family Research Council and others have declared this Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day. And while Americans should head to the chicken-sandwich restaurant to show their support, they should also take the opportunity to reflect on the intolerant left. Watching liberals react to Dan Cathy’s comments on marriage and family over the past two weeks revealed their real agenda: shut down and silence anyone who doesn’t agree with them. Big-city mayors from Boston, Chicago, San Francisco and Washington, D.C., vowed to use their political clout to keep Chick-fil-A out of their cities. When the company’s top spokesman died unexpectedly last week, one liberal friend of mine declared on Facebook,“Oh, karma, you crafty bitch.” I thought liberals were the ones preaching tolerance? The Chick-fil-A kerfuffle helped clarify a point conservatives have been making for years. Liberals are interested in debate only when they’re winning. And on the issue of marriage, they’re 0-for-32 in states that have put the question to voters. That offers some explanation why mayors Tom Menino, Rahm Emanuel, Ed Lee and Vincent Gray promised to punish Cathy because of his differing view on marriage. What’s scary, though, is that individuals with this much clout think it’s appropriate to use that power to exact the punishment. Never mind that Chick-fil-A takes no position on homosexual marriage, a point the company reiterated during the media firestorm. It didn’t matter. Liberal journalists fanned the flames by deeming Cathy’s comments endorsing the “biblical definition of the family unit“ as anti-gay. And to make matters worse for the mayors, Chick-fil-A hires employees and serves customers without regard to their sexual orientation. So in this case, the only people discriminating are the mayors. Sadly, this is a trend that’s played out too frequently of late. Liberals used the same tactics they’re now employing against Chick-fil-A earlier this summer to attack University of Texas professor Mark Regnerus. He published one of the most comprehensive studies examining the outcomes for adult children whose parents had same-sex relationships. Rather than learn from Regnerus’ study or debate its findings, activists instead have sought to destroy his credibility and banish him from public discourse. http://hotair.com/archives/2012/08/01/why-are... |

Video: New York Democrats Plan for Gun Confiscation Kurt Nimmo Infowars.com January 17, 2013 Democrats in New York ran for cover in response to fallout after Gov. Andrew Cuomo said confiscation is the goal of new gun laws introduced in the state legislature.“Confiscation could be an option. Mandatory sale to the state could be an option,” Cuomo said in December. The plan was shelved after it was estimated it would cost over a billion dollars to “buyback” around a million so-called assault weapons in the state. “The cost of confiscation would make it impracticable, if there’s anything approaching a million of them, putting aside the other issues that would be involved,’’ a Cuomo administration source told the New York Post. But despite the budget-busting cost of a mandatory buyback, Democrats in the state are determined to confiscate firearms from law-abiding New Yorkers, as the video below demonstrates. During an exchange on January 15 in the New York State Assembly, Republican Steven F. McLaughlin said the gun bill proposed by Democrats included provisions to confiscate weapons, but the proposals were rejected because they would have sunk the legislation. The exchange underscores the fact that Democrats in New York and Washington are not merely interested in outlawing what they erroneously describe as assault weapons, but are determined to confiscate them http://www.infowars.com/video-new-york-democr... |

I work in a refinery with excellent benefits, bonuses, pension, so I don't see it either. I voted for Obama just to keep the cons out of the office. We didn't notice it either. Big companies keep on chugging. Small business owners (lots of reps there) will soon go under. Then they can join the regular workforce. |

Don't worry because Wall Street is coming for everything YOU own and they will get it. ---------- Retiring Boomers Find 401(k) Plans Fall Short February 19, 2011 / http://tinyurl.com/47ong3n The 401(k) generation is beginning to retire, and it isn't a pretty sight. The retirement savings plans that many baby boomers thought would see them through old age are falling short in many cases. The median household headed by a person aged 60 to 62 with a 401(k) account has less than one-quarter of what is needed in that account to maintain its standard of living in retirement, according to data compiled by the Federal Reserve and analyzed by the Center for Retirement Research at Boston College for The Wall Street Journal. Even counting Social Security and any pensions or other savings, most 401(k) participants appear to have insufficient savings. Data from other sources also show big gaps between savings and what people need, and the financial crisis has made things worse. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1000142405274... --------- Corporate CEO 'Extremists' Target Social Security, Medicare 'For the wealthy, pampered, and narcissistic CEOs of the Business Roundtable, sacrifice is always for someone else.' January 17, 2013 / CEOs from America's largest corporations—including its biggest banks, retailers, and insurance companies who helped drive the country into the worst recession in nearly a century— are now calling on Congress to punish the nation's working class and society's most vulnerable by advocating major changes to Social Security and Medicare in a new lobbying push that critics say reveal the cruelty and selfish nature of the country's corporate class. The Business Roundtable, comprised of more than 200 chief executives and some of the nation's wealthiest individuals, began lobbying DC lawmakers Wednesday in a press conference calling for major cuts to Social Security (including a raise in elgibility age to 70) and a new push to privatize Medicare. Critics of the group call the move a clear assault by the nation's wealthiest on the social safety net that protects millions of working people. http://www.commondreams.org/headline/2013/01/... |

Paul Pillar served for 30 years as an analyst at the CIA, finishing his career as the national intelligence officer for the Near East and South Asia. Question: At least the way the story is told by [journalist] Bob Woodward, is that even then the president is asking Rumsfeld to begin war plans.[Counterterrorism expert] Richard Clarke reports that [there is] lots of conversation about "Let's get ready." That's the fall [of 2001]. You're the Middle East guy for the Central Intelligence Agency, and you're not receiving any formal requests, any requests for information, any intelligence requests?... Pillar I did not receive any requests from a policy-maker on Iraq until about a year into the war. Now, this is to be distinguished from our military, which was doing a lot of the planning work and making many, many requests, usually at other levels, but some of my colleagues in the National Intelligence Council were involved in supporting the military planning. But no, I did not. Q A year into the war meaning when? Pillar Meaning close to mid-2004.... Remember, things like the infamous National Intelligence Estimate [NIE] on weapons of mass destruction, which was published in the fall of 2002, that was not requested by the administration; that was requested by Congress. Q Wait a minute. The Bush administration, the vice president, president, did not ever ask the Central Intelligence Agency for an intelligence assessment? Pillar I want to be precise. From my seat on the National Intelligence Council,... not just the CIA but the entire intelligence community,... no, I did not receive any request on Iraq.... There were other requests being made, from DIA to CIA, particularly by the military as they faced their very awesome job of planning. Q But not the vice president? Pillar No, sir. Q Not the president? Not the national security adviser? Pillar The course had already been set. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/darks... |

Ex-CIA Official Paul Pillar Faults Use of Data on Iraq Intelligence 'Misused' to Justify War, He Says February 10, 2006 / http://tinyurl.com/azl6w The former CIA official who coordinated U.S. intelligence on the Middle East until last year has accused the Bush administration of "cherry-picking" intelligence on Iraq to justify a decision it had already reached to go to war, and of ignoring warnings that the country could easily fall into violence and chaos after an invasion to overthrow Saddam Hussein. Paul R Pillar's critique is one of the most severe indictments of White House actions by a former Bush official since Richard C. Clarke, a former National Security Council staff member, went public with his criticism of the administration's handling of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks and its failure to deal with the terrorist threat beforehand. It is also the first time that such a senior intelligence officer has so directly and publicly condemned the administration's handling of intelligence. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/... === 1948 Smith-Mundt Act The 1948 Smith-Mundt Act prohibited the domestic dissemination of United States government propaganda. The reasoning behind Smith-Mundt was that Congress wanted to be certain that a United States government agency could not brainwash our own citizens as Hitler had done in Germany. ====== A Spy Speaks Out Former Top CIA Official Tyler Drumheller On "Faulty" Intelligence Claims / http://tinyurl.com/rle4x / April 23, 2006 "The policy was set. The war in Iraq was coming and they were looking for intelligence to fit into the policy." Tyler Drumheller CIA Ret. (CBS) When no weapons of mass destruction surfaced in Iraq, President Bush insisted that all those WMD claims before the war were the result of faulty intelligence. But a former top CIA official, Tyler Drumheller — a 26-year veteran of the agency — has decided to do something CIA officials at his level almost never do: Speak out. He tells correspondent Ed Bradley the real failure was not in the intelligence community but in the White House. He says he saw how the Bush administration, time and again, welcomed intelligence that fit the president's determination to go to war and turned a blind eye to intelligence that did not. http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/04/21/60m... ---- |

1 DoD Determines US Foreign Policy, PERIOD!!! Congress is SUPERFLUOUS!!! The only thing to FEAR, is NOT ENOUGH FEAR. "We went to war with a flawed plan that didn't account for the hard work to build the peace after we took down the regime. We also served under a secretary of defense who didn't understand leadership, who was abusive, who was arrogant, who didn't build a strong team." -- Retired Army Maj. Gen. John Batiste. "My sincere view is that the commitment of our forces to this fight was done with a casualness and swagger that are the special province of those who have never had to execute these missions -- or bury the results." -- Retired Marine Lt. Gen. Gregory Newbold. "They only need the military advice when it satisfies their agenda. I think that's a mistake, and that's why I think he should resign." -- Retired Army Maj. Gen. John Riggs. "We grow up in a culture where accountability, learning to accept responsibility, admitting mistakes and learning from them was critical to us. When we don't see that happening it worries us. Poor military judgment has been used throughout this mission." -- Retired Marine Gen. Anthony Zinni, former chief of U.S. Central Command. "I really believe that we need a new secretary of defense because Secretary Rumsfeld carries way too much baggage with him.... I think we need senior military leaders who understand the principles of war and apply them ruthlessly, and when the time comes, they need to call it like it is." -- Retired Army Maj. Gen. Charles Swannack. "He has shown himself incompetent strategically, operationally and tactically, and is far more than anyone responsible for what has happened to our important mission in Iraq.... Mr. Rumsfeld must step down." -- Retired Army Maj. Gen. Paul Eaton. Perfect security is Not attainable at any price!!! STAR WARS & other MISSILE DEFENSE for a Trillion Dollars may stop 8 atomic war heads, but 2 will still hit their mark. What can be achieved besides mutually assured destruction, is BANKRUPTING the US TREASURY. -- Retired Army General Wesley K. Clark, former Supreme Allied Commander Europe. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!! |

Daily Horoscope for May 23
Scorpio
You're in a very romantic and sentimental state today. You're also feeling quite sensitive and vulnerable, so you won't want to be around anyone you find abrasive or aggressive. If you meet someone for the first time now you'll think they're wonderful and your relationship will always involve putting them on a pedestal. But don't be too idealistic. They are human, remember!
