Have American’s have finally had enough, or just a flash in the pants?

I know I hate the bastards. The assholes that work for government make more money than someone in the private sector. That doesn’t make any sense, government doesn’t produce a damn thing.

Hating the government finally goes mainstream
By: Chris Stirewalt


Three years ago, the Republican establishment piled scorn on the presidential candidacy of Ron Paul.

Today, he is in a statistical tie with President Obama in 2012 polling. His son, an ophthalmologist who has never run for elective office, is well ahead of not only the GOP’s handpicked candidate for Senate in Kentucky but also both Democratic contenders — all statewide officeholders.

What happened? Did America sudden develop an insatiable appetite for 74-year-old, cranky congressmen from Texas? Is the gold standard catching on?

What, it was a great headline!

Gloria Estefan and her husband just pissed all over the Cuban community in Florida.

Estefans’ new collaboration hits sour note
By JACKIE BUENO SOUSA

If Gloria Estefan decides to sing a tune while hosting President Barack Obama at her home Thursday, she may want to consider her 1989 hit Cuts Both Ways.

‘Cause you and I are dangerous

We want too much and life ain’t that way

Don’t ask for more

Don’t be a fool

Haven’t we already broken every rule

The Estefans may have broken more than a rule when they decided to host a cocktail reception for the president during his visit to South Florida on Thursday. Estefan, along with husband Emilio, also broke a bond that had united them with Miami’s Cuban community, whose members largely oppose the president’s agenda.

The Estefans, for their part, have implied that they’re simply using the opportunity to increase awareness about the Cuban people’s plight. What’s more, they note that they believe in supporting good candidates regardless of party.

They would have a convincing argument except for one very important detail: The event isn’t merely a conversation about Cuba with the president while sipping a cortadito. Nor is it designed to raise funds for a particular cause or candidate they support.

Jobless claims “unexpectedly” rise again:

Rising jobless claims add worries about recovery

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The number of U.S. workers filing new claims for jobless aid soared last week as the backlog from the Easter holiday was processed, adding to worries about the recovery, while U.S. industrial output rose less than expected in March.

Initial claims for state unemployment benefits rose 24,000 — the largest increase in two months — to a seasonally adjusted 484,000, the Labor Department said on Thursday. Markets had expected a dip to 440,000.

“Everything on the manufacturing side is clearly pointing to an acceleration,” said Phil Orlando, chief equity market strategist at Federated Investors in New York.
