laglen I home-schooled my child for preschool along with her cousins. When they did go to school, they were ahead. We had a structured day but with only about two hours of "learning" however, they were learning all day. They knew and could write the alphabet, could...

laglen I like these shows too. Speaking of a camera crew, I work in a vfw. I bartend in the lounge and I manage the hall. I had an event in the hall when a fight started. Our policy is that when there is a punch thrown, the police are called and the party is over....

Maybe I can put it into perspective in just a few words... The Sequester is going to cut Gov. Spending by 2.4%...Right? Everyone in the US that works for a living just got a tax hit of a minimum of 2%...Right? Are we all going...

laglen Actually that cut is in more spending. They will have their previous budgets, they can only grow it 2% less. The rhetoric is ridiculous and I am glad the Republicans called his bluff. Now maybe more people will see the flat out lies he spews.

laglen Well, the deadline has gone. Now we have to watch where they will take these cuts. These cuts can be moved around and quite simply, the could easily make these cuts simply in waste. Now tackle the fraud and abuse, we are talking big money saved. Poor guys,...

laglen I agree with your analysis is pretty spot on. The government requires you to be dependent upon them, then can't afford to "take care" of everybody. This is a very good reason I do not like the direction our country is heading. We are as a rule a pretty self...

laglen Actually I agree with burrito on that one. I am a supporter of the death penalty in certain situations, but all gun crimes? I think is too much. But armed robbery and murder in the first degree, I agree.
