Story at Weasel Zippers:
Consumers Union Supports ObamaÂ’s Rationer-In-Chief Berwick
This is the reason I dropped Consumer Reports after years of getting the magazine. This organization started out as a good idea and maintained itself over the years very well evaluating products based on careful criteria. Beginning in the late 70s though other factors for evaluation started creeping in; safety, then “greenness”, and then how it was manufactured. When how many MPG a car got became a factor in whether or not a car is a “good consume deal” I through up my hands. That subscription went in the toilet.
Sadly, almost every magazine in the country has gone the same route. You would think that niche magazines catering to small sections of the public (like Discover) would keep the politics out of the magazine in order to appeal to the largest possible audience, but no. It appears that since all the writers are extreme liberals it is impossible for them to keep their liberal views out of the articles.
In the above cited example at Weasel, not only has Consumer Reports gone liberal, but they are actively endorsing political candidates and their policies.
I am glad I dropped their magazine and I no longer get any magazines.

LOL, you know you have lost it as a liberal when the Opinion Page of the New York Post slams your ass. They unload on ObamaÂ’s AZ suit hard:
The White House says President Obama had nothing to do with the Justice Department's challenge to Arizona's immigration law, insisting the decision was Attorney General Eric Holder's alone.
Please.
This is a political lawsuit, driven by Obama's drop in the polls among Hispanics and Democrats' hope of bringing out Latinos this fall by hanging an anti-immigrant millstone around the GOP's neck.
The Arizona statute, on the other hand, is chiefly about the rule of law.
Read the whole thing its great.
And that concludes my "headlines"

The uber-PCness of everything was annoying to me but not any more than I could handle, since it's not too hard to instantly filter or translate stuff in my head while I'm reading/watching/listening. But the all-green-all-the-time is more than I can handle. I am sick to death of every stupid product/program/pamphlet being GREEN. Just because the rest of the world insists on committing themselves to useless stupidity, doesn't mean I have to follow along.

Someone at work had subscribed. I read an editorial, they were all for the Net Neutrality scam. Consumer Reports is now just another propaganda arm for George Soros. I'm sure they're still credible with their washer-dryer reviews, but I can go to the library to get that.

And here all along I thought it was only the government that had the power to levy taxes:
Because the debtors are not being required to pay, the other bank customers have to make up the slack - essentially a tax.

Yesterday I heard Eagles cheerleaders promoting their upcoming calendar. They acquainted us with a new term: ECO-SEXY. Evidently they were photographed wearing bikinis created from recycled Aquafina bottles and Glad trash bags.

Don't be too sure of that. As I said, they now include "green" as a review criteria. Reliability and functionality are no longer the primary yardsticks.
IOW, the primary reason for the magazine has been subverted. It is the same thing as the NASA subversion.

So green isn't all it's cracked up to be.

Has Patterson turned into a Northern version of Sanford thwarting the will of an uber-liberal legislature? Or was he forced into it by impending bankruptcy?
But the real question is, can he sustain the veto? Sanford wasn't able to.

Boxer, who once held a 30-point lead over Fiorina, the former CEO of Hewlett Packard and a political novice, is now ahead by a margin of only 47 percent to 44 percent, the Field Poll found.
That means Fiorina is actually up by 2 pts as the typical non-Ras poll averages 5 points slanted higher for the Dems.

I didn't get much time to go around and I was young so those short breaks usually turned in to epic drunks.

Peter Earle, a MATC board member and Milwaukee lawyer, sponsored that board's boycott resolution. ...Wisconsin provides in-state resident tuition for undocumented college students who graduated from state high schools, he said.
"MATC's student body includes undocumented students who graduated from Wisconsin high schools," Earle said.Peter Earle, you are supporting criminal activity. The fact that you knowingly harbored federal fugitives should make you an accessory after the fact. Gee, you sound like every other leftie liberal idiot dhimmi I've heard of for the last 50 years.

I was referring to the "check receiving agency" being thankful and appreciative of getting the checks.
But I really don't think getting rid of withholding will greatly effect the hatred that taxpayers have for the income tax.
The problem isn't withholding, its the fact that too many voters don't pay any taxes and are net users.

I find it amazing how really clear headed kids actually are. I remember their asking what abortion was. I told them. They were so incredibly horrified--this was at 7-8 years old. I have never been able to figure out how you go from that to thinking it's a great human right.
They are also noticing their pay checks. The 15 year old worked 26 hours in the first pay period in 100 degree heat as a life guard. He was paid well ( $11.59/hr) but told me to tell grandma that she owed him $18.68 for his medicare contribution.

Don't worry about Rubio. He's keeping most of his powder dry for when the dolts from the crazy Florida counties (Palm Beach/Broward/Miami-Dade) are paying attention, which will definitely not be before the August 24 primary. Why waste the $ now, when the race is staying so close?
In the meantime, let Guv Orange Glow spend his ill-gotten campaign money - and run his mouth. It's given Rubio so much campaign fodder.
Indeed, many of the commercials are most likely writing themselves at this very minute.
And then the debates - Rubio will crush him.

I don't understand how women can kill their babies on purpose, but I've never been pregnant so I'm not allowed to judge, or something.
Yeah, well I've been pregnant 4 times. Three "unplanned" which is a stupid way to think about it since I was having sex and sex makes babies. Every single time I was overwhelmed with an intense desire to protect the fragile life living inside of me. When the third baby died in utero, I was as devastated as with any death I had ever experienced. It still haunts me. I cannot grasp how women normally go through all kinds of discomfort and sacrifice (coffee, antiacids, food, booze, crappy food, privacy, salt, figure, constipation) to strengthen their baby but then can turn around an kill one if they find it inconvenient. The disconnect here between sex and conception is very strange, especially for women whose sexual urges don't completely drain their brains of blood supply.
Ack, my paycheck is going to get garnished for the next 18-25 years if I don't convince her to go to the abortion clinic." Self-preservation, sorta?
Don't have sex if you don't want a baby to the point you would kill it? Is that really that hard a concept or that hard not to do? I did have pre-marital sex but only with the man I married or would have married if there had been a "mistake" and even then used multiple birth control methods. The idea that casual sex is ok because infantiside. is ok blows my mind.

I have posted on this before but it has gotten to be just ridiculous what the government is doing, what they are saying, and what is actually being reported. This is a fine example of that from a story in the WSJ (via link from Drudge)
The headline screams
U.S. Plans Cyber Shield for Utilities, Companies
They follow that with a picture of a Control Room for a nuclear power plant (supposedly the BWR at Limerick, PA) and the following paragraphs leading in.
The federal government is launching an expansive program dubbed "Perfect Citizen" to detect cyber assaults on private companies and government agencies running such critical infrastructure as the electricity grid and nuclear-power plants, according to people familiar with the program.
The surveillance by the National Security Agency, the government's chief eavesdropping agency, would rely on a set of sensors deployed in computer networks for critical infrastructure that would be triggered by unusual activity suggesting an impending cyber attack, though it wouldn't persistently monitor the whole system, these people said.
(Emphasis mine)
I will repeat this once again, NO utility controls their grid using the internet AND not only does no utility control their nuclear power plants using the internet but it is against the damn law for them to do that! So any time you hear the feds say they are putting out a project to prevent someone from hijacking those controls you must know that it is a damn lie and other things are at work.
What they are doing is setting up a program to spy on the Internet traffic for whatever means they want at the time.
