Their is a saying:
If you put a lobster in hot water it will jump out, but if you put it in cold water and slowly turn up the heat it will remain their until it dieds.
Well, in Joliet IL and all over the progessive government local and federal are installing red light cameras and police montor cameras
in locations to watch over us. Is that fair? or what. The Progessives claim the Republicans are doing it, but why are the Progessives doing it.

Romney famously pointed out that corporations are people because people individually accrue benefits from incorporating together.

Obama: Thom Blows It Again
Today (hour 1 8-30-11) Thom was talking to, I think, John Podesta and I caught him saying..."we need to get Obama reelected"...
That is so wrong on so many levels. "We", if you include most real Progressives, will NOT be working to get this corporatist sellout reelected. In fact, it's imperative that he be defeated.
