I posted this yesterday and I will repost it again. New school construction is a necessity. Many schools around the country are over a century old and are falling apart. Schools that were meant to hold 600 students are now holding over 1000. In NYC, children are stuck in obsolete trailers with no heat or water or a/c during the hot months. They have to go out in the cold and rain just to go to the bathroom. These trailers were supposed to be a temporary solution. That was over 10 years ago. Our kids deserve better and the package will create construction jobs. My friend’s son, an architect, was recently laid off. This would be an opportunity for many in his field who were laid off to get work. It is also important to make sure these new buildings go green so that we don’t have to rely on foreign oil. Cobra is very expensive. We cannot ignore people who will lose their health coverage or not be able to afford the cobra payments. I am glad Obama is looking towards the future for our kids and helping those who need it now.

His actions have also impacted Baltimore’s police and fire pensions. There are many single women of retirement age who will be impacted by this too. This man knew no boundaries for his crime. And the lawyers for the government screwed up when they allowed bail in the first place.

After the last 8 years and the greed on Wall Street, this stuff does seem small and criminal charges seem ridiculous. But Kellogg’s made the right decision given the parameters of the contract, and Phelps I believe has learned an important life lesson.

The View???? uh, No thanks.

You and Diamond once mentioned that you knew him from another blog when he was attacking me for not agreeing with him. What other blog was it?

Yep! Yep! (to answer both your questions) Got the 2 mixed up. But I did notice the look Monica gave Buchanan when he gave Obama the A-. It’s like he broke some sort of conservative commandment. Lately conservatives like David Brooks are being brand as non-conservatives if they don’t follow the same train of thought.

“Nobama” “old bat” How respectful is that? What the hell is happening on Wow?? Either the hatred is sugar-coated or downright blatant from the same people who praised GW.

You got that right :)

Buchanan also disagreed with Laura when he gave Obama a good rating for his first week in office and Laura gave him a “C”.

Well, nothing has changed on Wow. Still attacking Obama when in fact he answered every question in detail last night. The Republicans do not want to spend on new school construction? So better they fall down. Many of the schools in NYC are over 100 years old. And, trailers had to be added to the schoolyard. These trailers are now 10 years or older and in disrepair. No heat in the winter or a/c in the summer. The bathrooms are out of order. And many of them have leaks after it rains. New school construction is a necessity in many areas of the US. I applaud the Republicans who support this stimulus package.

Definitely a combination of push button and rotary sex with the the long cords. Cordless sex?? Is that just the use of a held-hand device?? Thanks again Liza. You are just hilarious!!

Just when I take a vacation from Wow, Edith Ann returns to the Sandbox!! You have been so missed. Wow was not the same. People started getting angry all over again and calling people bad names. One said I was not a patriotic American. Why are these people so mean???

Mary Lou, I think I already made my point to Lily that I agree with her sentiments. But more important I agree with Obama. That’s why I gave her that site.

Lily, I obviously didn’t make myself clear and I agree with Obama’s policy (the site you posted above). Glad you found it ;>) No way can we fix any of these countries.

Mo, Here is what one restaurant near my Main Street area is doing. http://www.nydailynews.com/ny_local/queens/2009/01/30/2009-01-30_will_yo… I hope movie theater owners start doing the same. Many have special pricing 1 to 2X a week, but usually on weekdays. If Hollywood can make Millions on a pic, they can certainly offer theaters that carry their movies some incentives too. There are movie theaters in Florida that offer senior specials—coke and small popcorn for $1.50.
