4. Raising the minimum wage helps the poor. The president wants to increase the federal minimum wage to $10.10 from $7.25, with the tagline “Let’s give America a raise.” The Congressional Budget Office estimates that the hike would cost 500,000 jobs, one blow to the low-wage earners it claims to help. Employment aside, only 18% of the earnings benefits of a $10.10 hike would flow to people living below the poverty line, according to analysis from University of California-Irvine economist David Neumark. Nearly 30% of the benefits would go to families three times above the poverty line or higher, in part because half of America’s poor families have no wage earners. Minimum-wage increases help some poor families—at the expense of other poor families.

You won’t hear that from Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn, who in September lived on $79 for a week to show his public-relations solidarity with minimum-wage earners. Keep in mind: Only 4.7% of minimum-wage earners are adults working full-timetrying to support a family, and nearly all would be eligible for the earned-income tax credit and other welfare programs.

5. Global warming is causing increasingly violent weather. Tell that to Floridians, who are enjoying the ninth consecutive season without a hurricane landfall. The Atlantic hurricane season in 2013 was the least active in 30 years. Oh, and global temperatures have not increased for 15 years.

Still, something must be done! On Monday, the Hill reported that an internal memo circulating among five environmental groups detailed plans for spending to support candidates “who want to act” to combat climate change. “We are on track to spend more than $85 million overall including more than $40 million in just six Senate races,” the memo said. The beneficiaries include Sen. Mark Udall (D., Colo.), who got $12.1 million, and Rep. Bruce Braley (D., Iowa) with $7.2 million.

6. Genetically modified food is dangerous. Farmers have been breeding crop seeds for 10,000 years, but the agricultural innovation known as genetic modification makes liberals shudder. Not a single documented illness has resulted from the trillions of meals containing “genetically modified organisms,” or GMOs, that humans have consumed since the mid-1990s. The technology has been declared safe by every regulatory agency from the Food and Drug Administration to the European Commission.

But insisting on labeling food containing GMOs has turned into a liberal cause. The California Democratic Party platform in 2012 added a demand for GMO labeling; more recently the Oregon Democratic Party climbed aboard. In May 2013, self-described socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont introduced a farm-bill amendment that would allow states to require GMO labeling for food; co-sponsors of the amendment, which failed, included Sens. Mark Begich (D., Ala.) and Jeff Merkley (D., Ore.).

7. Voter ID laws suppress minority turnout. More than 30 states have voter-ID laws, which the left decries as an attempt to disenfranchise minorities who don’t have identification and can’t pay for it. Yet of the 17 states with the strictest requirements, 16 offer free IDs. The Government Accountability Office this month released an analysis of 10 voter-ID studies: Five showed the laws had no statistically significant effect on turnout, four suggested a decrease in turnout (generally among all ethnic groups, though percentages varied), and one found an increase in turnout with voter ID laws in place.

The Democratic Senate candidate in Kentucky, Alison Lundergan Grimes, has nonetheless been running radio ads in urban areas claiming that “Mitch McConnell and the Republicans are trying to take away our right to vote,” based on a 2007 voter-ID amendment the minority leader introduced.

Ca Marieden, c'est presque certain qu'on aura droit a la fille... d'autant qu'il restera sans doute un peu d'argent sur les 2 milliards de dollars que sa maman a dans ses coffres pour la campagne 2016 et surtout si les donateurs de la foundation Clinton (Arabie Saoudite, Oman, Qatar,emirats arabes unis*) ont encore leur mot a dire.

10 Scandals Involving Hillary Clinton You May Have Forgotten

Alors le lancement de la campagne n'ayant pas obtenu le resultat escompte, un ami de longue date et grand supporter d'Hillary est venu sur FOX News nous expliquer que c'etait la un "PRE" lancement et que le veritable, le vrai de vrai etait a venir avec plan pour sauvegarder la classe moyenne et tout et tout... (maintenant que notre president par l'intermediaire de son porte-parole a fait savoir hier que bien qu'"amis" il ne prendrait pas plus partie pour elle que pour n'importe quel autre ami(e) qui pourrait se lancer dans la campagne, elle n'aura peut-etre pas a se retenir autant concernant le manqué de reussite de la politique interieure - ben oui, elle etait Minitre des Affaires Etrangeres des lors... - Obama.

Donc Hillary monte dans l'Iowa EN BUS.. pour etre plus pres du "petit peuple". Elle s'est arretee pour prendre un petit en-cas chez Chipotle .. Malheureusement pour elle, elle n'a pas ete reconnue. Il nous a donc ete "splique" (ca fait plus hispanique - I love Lucy) qu'elle etait "incognito"... pas du tout mais pas du tout, le fait qu'elle ne connaisse pas comment se servir dans ce restaurant et le fait qu'elle a son entourage avec elle, ne devant entrer en ligne de compte.

Le plus grave est l'importance donnee a ces clowneries alors que tant n'ont pas de travail, que la dette du pays est maintenant de plus de 18 trillions de dollars. Debt, que notre politique exterieure soit un desastre, qu'Obmacare ne soit guere mieux, etc. etc.

Ils nous prennent vraiment pour des buses et ca marche!

Norway will shut down FM radio in the country beginning in 2017, Radio.no reports. The Norwegian Ministry of Culture finalized a shift date this week, making it the first country to do away with FM radio entirely. The country plans to transition to Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) as a national standard.

A statement released this week by the Ministry of Culture confirms a switch-off date that was proposed by the Norwegian government back in 2011. The government has concluded that the country is capable of meeting all the requirements necessary for a smooth transition to digital.

Les Clinton ont chaud en ce moment:

Cash Flowed to Clinton Foundation as Russians Pressed for Control of Uranium Company

By JO BECKER and MIKE McINTIREAPRIL 23, 2015


The headline in Pravda trumpeted President Vladimir V. Putin’s latest coup, its nationalistic fervor recalling an era when the newspaper served as the official mouthpiece of the Kremlin: “Russian Nuclear Energy Conquers the World.”

The article, in January 2013, detailed how the Russian atomic energy agency, Rosatom, had taken over a Canadian company with uranium-mining stakes stretching from Central Asia to the American West. The deal made Rosatom one of the world’s largest uranium producers and brought Mr. Putin closer to his goal of controlling much of the global uranium supply chain.

But the untold story behind that story is one that involves not just the Russian president, but also a former American president and a woman who would like to be the next one.

At the heart of the tale are several men, leaders of the Canadian mining industry, who have been major donors to the charitable endeavors of former President Bill Clinton and his family. Members of that group built, financed and eventually sold off to the Russians a company that would become known as Uranium One.

Beyond mines in Kazakhstan that are among the most lucrative in the world, the sale gave the Russians control of one-fifth of all uranium production capacity in the United States. Since uranium is considered a strategic asset, with implications for national security, the deal had to be approved by a committee composed of representatives from a number of United States government agencies. Among the agencies that eventually signed off was the State Department, then headed by Mr. Clinton’s wife, Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Gifts to Hillary Clinton’s Family Charity Are Scrutinized in Wake of Book
State Department sat on panel that approved sale of mine involving contributor to foundation

Hillary Clinton’s State Department was part of a panel that approved the sale of one of America’s largest uranium mines at the same time a foundation controlled by the seller’s chairman was making donations to a Clinton family charity, records reviewed by The Wall Street Journal show.
The $610 million sale of 51% of Uranium One to a unit of Rosatom, Russia’s state nuclear agency, was approved in 2010 by a U.S. federal committee that assesses the security implications of foreign investments. The State Department, which Mrs. Clinton then ran, is one of its members.

But for that pesky photo! NY Times reporter says Clintons flat out lied to her


When it rains, it pours.

One of The New York Times reporters who exposed the Clinton Foundation‘s connection to the sale of a uranium company to Russia said the Clintons flat out lied to her about former President Bill Clinton meeting with key players in the deal, according to The Daily Caller.

Appearing in a Fox News special scheduled to air Friday evening, Times reporter Jo Becker spoke about the deception involving a meeting between the head of the uranium mining company Kazatomprom, Frank Giustra, a Canadian millionaire, and Clinton.



After the meeting, which the Clintons denied ever happened, Giustra donated $31.3 million to the Clinton Foundation, The Times reported.
“When I first contacted both the Clinton Foundation, Mr. Clinton’s spokesman and Mr. Giustra they denied any such meeting ever took place,” Becker said.
Except for that pesky photograph…

Tangled Clinton Web: Firms tied to Clintons profited in post-quake Haiti
Published April 24, 2015
FoxNews.com
On Jan. 12, 2010, Haiti suffered a devastating earthquake. More than 200,000 died, and over 100,000 buildings and homes were destroyed. 
Within four days, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton arrived to survey the damage. 

Clinton assured the Haitian people that, "the United States is a friend, partner, and a supporter." 
The government of Haiti set up the IHRC -- the Interim Haiti Recovery Commission -- to coordinate the nation's recovery. 
Former President Bill Clinton was named co-chair of that committee. He expressed hope that the island nation would be, "rebuilt in a much stronger, much sustainable way. I think the Haitians want that." 

But Peter Schweizer, author of the new book "Clinton Cash," that investigates the tangle of money, politics and personal interest that has come to characterize the Clintons' interactions around the world, says that: "What quickly became apparent to many people was that if you ... wanted to do business in Haiti, you had to have relationships with a Clinton. That was absolutely key."

Ariana Grande, ses plus plates excuses

Si ça continue, elle va bientôt ramper pour présenter ses excuses. La popstar américaine de 22 ans a
posté une vidéo où elle explique qu’« elle n’a « jamais été aussi fière d’être américaine ». En voyant sa
vidéo polémique, elle raconte qu’elle a été « dégoûtée » d’elle-même. « Je voulais mettre ma tête dans un
oreiller et disparaître, ajoute Ariane Grande. Je veux avoir une influence positive ». « Je vais apprendre
de mes erreurs » bla bla bla… Tout ça parce qu’elle a léché un donut et dit qu’elle détestait les Etats-Unis
et les Américains. Bon… On n’a pas de donut sous la main, alors on va lécher un croissant.



Elle me fait peine.

Tres triste en effet, Eddie.
