Tax hikes on table at Las Cruces meeting Tuesday
Note that NOT ONE of these suggestions talk about reining in spending or cutting entitlements? Limit welfare (in its' many forms) to a maximum of two-year consecutive receipt with a limit to 10-years lifetime. Refuse to pay additional benefits for children born out of wedlock. Limit of 2 children per female getting benefits. The state should cut of funding if the woman will not identify the father. The state should then go after the father with all haste. I just do not think that the taxpayers of NM should be responsible for paying for a person's laziness and poor decisions. IT IS CALLED PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY ... let's work on the concept as a community. (21 hrs ago | post #1)
Our view: Is Richardson eyeing prize in Washington?
My gawd, are we surprised that a Democrat has left nothing but budget deficits? It seems to be the new norm for Democratic administrations. Sure, Bush left a recession and a debt, but this President has quadrupled it. This huge exercise in multiplication has strapped our grand kids with debt and increased unemployment a full 2 percent above where Obama said it would be, How's the HOPE and CHANGE working out for you?

Nice to see you come up for air Roy. MSNBC and Think Progress are hardly bastions of balanced thought. You too can wait until 2010 when the socialists are flushed to the septic tank like the **** that they are. (22 hrs ago | post #9)

I will let you wait until 2010 when the people find they have had just about enough of HOPE AND CHANGE. (22 hrs ago | post #8)
Their view: ACLU should be everyone's organization
1. Firing GM's CEO? 2. Along with Bush, the bailouts. I oppose the bailouts. Am I wrong to look for a Constitutional basis for my opposition? 3. Obama has created 32 Czars. Is that constitutional? 4. Article 1 Section 6: which is exactly what happened with Obama appointing Hillary. 5. There is clearly a violation of the separation of powers in the Constitution as far as the Judicial Branch and the Executive Branch in the way that the Chrysler bankruptcy has been handled. 6. What about the US Census being taken over by the Executive Branch? We will stop there, just to limit your embarrassment. (Yesterday | post #5)
Lasershield to maintain Las Cruces office
If they could come up with a smoke detector that worked with their system, it would be UNBEATABLE (Saturday | post #5)
I could not agree more. Children ARE NOT LITTLE ADULTS. Maybe these parents should do a little research before taking little Jonny to an 'R' movie. Maybe parents should review http://www.topix.n et/forum/source/la s-cruces-sun-news/ T9TIUUBIS8FP1KVQ4# c9 Maybe some parents should read Amy Alkon's book "I See Rude People: One Womanıs Battle to Beat Some Manners into Impolite Society".

Not everyone thinks children are the cutest things on Earth. Heidi may be one of those who believes that a child should be seen and not heard. I have to say that I agree with her premise. Just sign me... another JACK-BOOTED CHILD HATER (Saturday | post #11)

Pray tell what Constitutional rights have been lost and please give me an example of anything ... anything at all to support you comments about dictatorship. I have seen more documented cases of Constitutional abuse under Obama than one could possibly imagine. I will be waiting with baited breath for your expose using Demo talking points.

and your tolerant attitude is just the reason so many kids misbehave these days. Grow a set of BALLZ and take charge. You are the adult for CRISSAKES ... act like it. (Saturday | post #9)

This includes any public place. Personally, I want to start a restaurant where the hostess asks me, "Children or No Children?" Teach your urchin some manners or stay at home. We go out to eat for the food and the ambience. We DO NOT want to see food fights or hear wailing. I have been very successful in getting reseated if the disturbance is great. The management of the restaurant should be willing to correct the behavior if the parent won't ... ask the offenders to leave your establishment. (Saturday | post #8)
Our View: Division-one status important part of NMSU
Saying NMSU is a true Division I school is like saying the Las Cruces Sun-News compares to the LA TIMES. A man has got to know his limitations. Too bad McKinley Boston cannot see this. (Saturday | post #5)
New Mediterranean restaurant set to open in Las Cruces (11:30 a...
I still like Kiva Patio Cafe at 600 Amador (Amador @ Tornillo) Not much to look at, but the food is fabulous. All of you people who swear by Andele's or El Comedor should try this place. The FAJITAS are flaming hot and smokin' when they get to your table. The sopapilla compuesta is fabulous, as are the gorditas. (Saturday | post #13)
NFL Network accidentally airs coach's curse words (7:01 a.m.)
If anyone was actually hurt by the word, then there is NO HOPE for the human race. The words are used so much now that they have lost their shock value. Most of these words are just adjectives now. What does NFL Network have to be sorry about? (Saturday | post #9)
Man airlifted after holiday stabbing
Good Gawd, yet another case of domestic violence in a Hispanic household. But it seems to have spread (at least in this case) of man on woman ---> woman on man. One thing they have in common? INTOXICATION (Saturday | post #1)
