DEL.ICIO.USConservatives do right thing for taxpayers
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
To this day, veteran legislators cringe that 11 years ago, in the midst of a heady debate about how best to reform the state tax system, Gov. Zell Miller succeeded in persuading fellow Democrats to eliminate the sales tax on food.
Their dismay is not particularly related to the fact that legislators allowed taxpayers to keep what was projected to be $166 per year for the average family when fully implemented in 2000, but to the fact that the legislators were giving up a sum that amounted to 5 percent of the $10.7 billion budget in a way that brought no glory except to Miller. Who notices?
While another political party awaits yet another stab at tax reform next year — the most difficult of all legislative feats — the General Assembly had a “holy cow!” moment last week, agreeing to return $142 million in excess collections as an additional property tax break for homeowners.
It started as a dare. Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle and Senate Republicans pulled what House leaders regarded as a budget stunt when they stripped House “pork” from the supplemental budget. They sent word privately that they’d be willing to add back 30 or more projects, including $15 million as the state’s share of the funds needed to acquire the 7,000 acre Paulding Forest Wildlife Management area in rapidly developing Paulding County, the home county of House Speaker Glenn Richardson (R-Hiram).
Furious that the Senate had used the supplemental for what they regarded as political games, partly related to the next gubernatorial campaign, the House first balked — and then delivered the Bomb.
The Bomb was an offer to give the excess revenues back to taxpayers as a one-time property tax rebate, the only vehicle then available for returning the money. The Senate took the dare. Deal done. Nobody blinked.
For fiscal conservatives — and for Republicans who control both Houses — it was a superb outcome.
Congressional Republicans were bounced last year in large part because their inability to discipline themselves on spending alienated their base. Projects like the Alaska “bridge to nowhere” sent the message that, once in power, one political party is not much different from the other.
The bumper stickers on this legislative session, insofar as the budget is concerned, was “PeachCare Cut” and “House Loves Pork.” Like all bumper stickers, they’re simplistic and largely inaccurate. But there’s enough truth to damage Republicans, primarily because the GOP has failed during the three years it has fully controlled the Gold Dome to define a difference.
They say they stand for lower taxes and less government and other conservative principles. But on most days and on most matters up for debate, it’s not particularly noticeable.
This session could well be a rerun of 1996 when Democrats had full control. Taxes were cut. Legislators who had other agendas sulked. The grow-government pleaders who stalk the halls and committee rooms whined. And editorialists with “pay now or later” admonitions complained that bigger government was being starved.
And yet nothing bad happened. Groceries got a tad cheaper. Georgians kept a little more of their money. And government continued to grow. The budget for the 2008 fiscal year is $20.2 billion, double the size of government when Miller passed his grocery tax exemption 11 years ago.
Instead of sulking unhappily now that a game of brinksmanship has given homeowners a one-time break that will amount to about $100, a sum likely to be unnoticed in the yearly fluctuation of property taxes, leaders should have used it to declare the New Day in Georgia: “We’ll try not to overtax, but when we do, you can trust us to give it back.”
As an extension of that explanation to voters of the difference it makes to have conservatives running Georgia, House members should pass the constitutional amendment already approved by the Senate that would impose a measure of spending discipline. It will not pass this year. Too much other vital legislation pends. But it should be passed next year and put on the ballot in 2008.
On a dare, legislators defined themselves and the difference it makes that Georgians gave power to these Republicans. They had too much money. And, as good fiscal conservatives, they gave it back.
There’s no glory to individual politicians. The public may not notice and send thank-you notes. But they had the money in hand to give us more government, and they gave us less. That is a difference that matters.

Steyn sums it up nicely:
It’s a good rule of thumb in American scandals that, no matter how big an idiot someone is, the outrage over him will always be more idiotic. Only in America: a team of champions who think they’re victims, an old white fool who talks like a gangsta rapper and multi-millionaires grown rich on race-baiting who promote themselves as guardians of civility. Good thing there are no real problems to worry about.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ®.
If you’re a clueless punk socialist, clap your hands:
{{{Snow won’t dampen global-warming rallies- The weather forecast for Saturday’s global warming rallies in Grand Rapids and Holland calls for snow and cold rain and temperatures in the 40s — about 10 degrees below normal. “I’ve thought of that,” said Lisa Locke, associate director of the West Michigan Environmental Action Council, which is organizing the three Grand Rapids “Step it Up” rallies. Locke points out that the rallies are on the 95th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, which struck an iceberg near Newfoundland. “They didn’t see it coming, the tragedy,” she said. “But we do.”}}}
Maybe we don’t need your “help”:
{{{W E often hear about global warming causing more heat deaths - but very little about cold deaths. It is true that, for example, the temperature rise from global warming will probably cause 2,000 more heat deaths in the United Kingdom by 2080. Yet studies indicate that the same temperature increase will also decrease cold deaths - 20,000 fewer U.K. cold deaths by 2080. Mentioning 2,000 more deaths, but not the 20,000 fewer cold deaths that go with them, is no basis for sound policy.}}}
That’s been core liberal policy for the last several decades, if it kills more people, the pinkos® will be solidly behind it. Look at DDT and the millions upon millions of dead African children, ever heard a lib even mention that? Check out “over population” and how the liberals talked about how maybe it would be better if some of the hicks were to die, preferably lots of the hicks dead.
How about making peace with Hitler? That was a good lib idea, huh, it only cost 50,000,000 people their lives and then ushered in global communism which killed another 200,000,000.
So what do we do with this “global warming,” well after it finishes up it’s late April extreme cold weather front? Strangle the economy of the United States? The same thing these punk socialist cowards have been trying to do for the last 50 years?
When the U.S. is dead and buried under mountains of ignorant, mindless regulation that has no effect at all on the weather, who will be paying all these AID bills around the globe that we now currently take care of?
We just going to let the poor starve to death so these vain, elitist liberals in the US can massage their guilty consciences?
Pis-s off.
Why don’t you go “help” yourself?
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ®.
Look at one of the all time most clueless statements the Urinal has ever published:
{{{“We want to make sure they [immigration officials] don’t take advantage of our people,” said Martin Rosas, secretary-treasurer for UFCW (United Food and Commercial Workers union) in Dodge City.}}}
“Their” people and them “take advantage” of the United States every single solitary day to make a profit.
And the Urinal is painting the US as the bad guy?
They ignore the law, undercut the wages of natural born citizens (which libs blame on Bush, ignorant mofos,) overcrowd our schools, overcrowd our healthcare system (which libs blame on Bush, ignorant mofos,) don’t pay taxes, send their pay back to Mexico and refuse to speak our language.
And we’re taking advantage of them?
WTF?
Typical, convoluted, perverted thinking of the socialist candy as-s pinko, blame the United States.
Sick, sick, sick.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ®.
{{{OUR OPINION: GOP still can’t find those FVs —- fake voters, Queen Pinko, Urinal}}}
I thought they fired the Attorney General that was investigating that??
The IRS hasn’t found all of the tax evaders yet either, despite it being a 300 billion dollar a year problem, but that damn sure doesn’t mean there aren’t any tax scofflaws.
Shouldn’t the editorial board grand pooh ba for the AJC know these things?
Or is her job to be a stooge for the democrats?

Good morning, Jim,
This $100 tax rebate will make it possible for me to retire to that mountain retreat and relax with the elements of nature!
At least the Georgia Republicans are headed in the right direction; however, I wouldn’t bet the farm that they will stay the course.

Define “Hatespeak” you liberal neoStalinist cape-wearing Republifraud.
Liberalism - indoctrinating one unused mind at a time.
Random thought: when the sick liberal commies reverse Bush tax cuts and raise them even higher, who do you think they are going to blame for the economy going in the toilet? People like me will cut back on spending. Damn right. YOU’LL GET NOTHING AND LIKE IT LIBERAL NEOCOMMUNISTS! Those bottom 50% of taxpayers footing a whopping 3.3% of the federal tax bill sure won’t help the economy much.
Random thought part II: what’s up with these jacked up gas prices? I thought that’s what ignonramuses put the Pelosifrauds in office for. It’s always easy to run that mouth of false promises, and naturally, the ignorant left eats up the lies and puts the liar frauds in office. The RATs are in power and gas prices are still high. The RAT’s are in power in congress, aren’t they? I just haven’t seen a lot coming across Bush’s desk since January. They’re too concerned about lawsuits adn firings to worry about we Americans.

“The White House has acknowledged that many years’ worth of official email–which is required by law to be preserved–has been “lost.” The reason it was lost is because many White House staffers, most notably Karl Rove, have conducted much of their official business over the years on private RNC-sponsored email accounts that routinely purged old email. The White House has attempted to mitigate its culpability for this blatant violation of the Presidential Records Act by arguing that it was the byproduct of a good faith effort to comply with another law, the Hatch Act, which prohibits conducting certain partisan political activity on government time.
But here’s the thing. It’s just not true. The Hatch Act and the Presidential Records Act are not “competing” laws. It’s remarkably easy to comply with both. All you have to do is preserve your official communications.

Marcus,
Actually I think this business of the disappearing bees is a legitimate and extremely important story, and I’d like to see it take precedence over the Global Warming Hysteria nonsense.
A little research and I discovered a website that rates phones by radiation emissions (which I assume refers to the energy they emit) here.
More interesting, I discovered that one can purchase radiation shields for one’s cell phone, and they are available now for 60 cents a phone..
Assuming it is not a phony claim and these really do work, then I suggest that the Republicans immediately introduce legislation to mandate the use of these cell phone radiation blockers on all new phones.
I’d like to see Public Interest Ad Campaigns that promotes the use of these shields around the world.
Make a difference! Save the bees! Save the world!

BD, I’m not so sure I agree with cell phone emissions and bees disappearing (yet). We are all told to turn off our cell phones during a commercial flight, but I’ve used my cell phone while flying in private planes many times and never had any navigation instrumentation interference, including NDB, VOR, and GPS receivers.
That said, I think that it’s possible that cellular towers emitting EMFs could be cause of concern for bees. I agree. We need bees like we need sunlight.

The responsible, fiscally conservative, less-government, free market Republican Platform for ‘08 is not pie-in-the sky-politics, even though the haters need to cool off and it seems the proof is in the pudding,
Blogdog (the Houndstooth of Sound Truth)
Note to readers: The haters who blog for the right are not part of the New Republican Party. They do not support our president or our troops, and wish only to hate patriots and free market economists, and most of all, the haters want only to become surrender monkey seers and doers, because that lets them love hate even more.
Join the New Republican Party, and be a part of the surge of optimism engulfing patriots everywhere, except for the blogging hate mongering haters who post here pretending to stand for traditional conservative values, which they dont, they only stand for hate.

Marcus,
Bees, like homing pigeons are thought to use the Earth’s electromagnetic rays, in addition to visual clues from the sun, to navigate.
It makes sense that cell phones, cell towers, WiFi signals, et al could disturb the bees navigation systems.
Of course it’s also possible that a natural cycle of the the sun itself is responsible - just like it is with Global Warming.
Gould wanted to explore how bees in particular, and other homing species – animals who come equipped with internal Global Positioning Systems – in general, sense the Earth’s magnetic field. In their search for rich flowers, bees often meander from flower patch to field and back. Yet once they find what they’re looking for, they turn tail and fly directly back to the hive in a “bee-line.” Gould wanted to know how, after so many twists and turns, bees still know exactly where they are in relation to their hive. It is a talent – the ability to home in on their exact location and the location of their target – that not even humans possess. What Gould found was magnetite, a metal highly sensitive to magnetic forces. In fact, he found magnetite “in humongous amounts.” Further investigation with other homing species such as homing pigeons – the animal that, “given all the money in the world and time enough,” Gould would study – and whales revealed that they all had extraordinarily high levels of magnetite. Gould was able to conclude that magnetite was “the major way animals sense things.”

I am livid that the legislature approved $550,000 in tax money to be wasted on one of the biggest pork barrel projects in the state: The Golf Hall of Fame in Augusta. Never mind that this was the pet project of now convicted felon and federal inmate former State Senator Robin Williams. But state taxpayers have been bilked out of over $20 million on this non attraction. First it takes up some of the best riverfront realestate in downtown Augusta and local boosters already are talking about building a new ballpark on the site.. so why waste anymore money on the Golf Hall of Fame.. if its days are numbered anyway? What did our $20 million dollars buy? An expensive serpentine brick wall that keeps people out and blocks the view.. and gardens that no one visits. Even during Masters Week, when you would think the place would be busy… it is not. What really gets me is that so-called Conservative lawmakers keep wasting our money on this pork project.

Can I say how much I hate the AJC’s server? Apparently I have to post his in two parts, because it is not working when I try to post it as as one:
Nevermind that business about the cell phones. I’ll spend 60 cents voluntarily and the Republicans might want use the Dem’s playbook and exploit this issue, but it looks like I was correct to hypothesize that it could be the sun at work:
Sunspots follow an approximate 11-year cycle, corresponding to increases in solar activity. This solar activity causes geomagnetic effects during the peaks, but effects on earth’s magnetic field also occur during the minimums. Using these observations, scientists have predicted that the next solar maximum, expected to peak in 2010, could be the most intense ever//…In his observations, the last time something similar to the IHV measurements he sees today happened was about 50 years ago.
What happened 50 years ago?

What happened 50 years ago?
Similar events could have happened 50 years ago when geomagnetic events preceded the most active solar cycle recorded.

Enough anecdotal evidence and coincidence combined with solid observation also exists to link the disappearance of the bees with changes in the sun.

Steve Chapman shows how deep the respect liberals have for our soldiers really is:
{{{John McCain is an indomitable patriot who will forever be remembered for his stoic endurance of captivity and torture as a prisoner of war in North Vietnam. But lately, he has gone to great lengths to prove that it’s possible to be both a hero and a fool.}}}
And then immediately pegs himself as the real “fool”:
{{{But the Baghdad episode risked turning him into a laughingstock, partly because McCain’s account was devastatingly refuted by events: The next day, 21 Iraqis who worked in the market were abducted and murdered.}}}
Think about this for a second, Al Qaeda is so tuned into the American political scene that they knew 1) who John McCain is, 2) and that they had to murder the market workers to discredit his trip.
They are playing the American left like a fiddle.
Everything they do is geared toward getting YOU, Steve Chapman, and you gitmo, to lose the war in Iraq.

Look at how Iranian justice works. This is the same Iran that is training thousands of soldiers to cross the border into Iraq and kill our American soldiers and Iraqis, the same Iran that Pelosi wants to smoke a peace pipe with:
The Iranian Supreme Court has vacated the murder convictions of a group of serial killers because their victims were engaging in un-Islamic activities, the British Broadcasting Corp. reports.//The men were convicted for a series of grisly killings in the southeastern city of Kerman in 2002. The vigilantes were said to believe that Islam condoned the killing of anyone engaged in illicit activities if they issued two warnings to the victims, the BBC reports.//At least 18 people were killed on the murder spree, but the men were only tried for five of the deaths. Some of the victims were stoned, others were suffocated and at least one man was buried alive, according to the vigilantes’ confessions…

Filmmaker Michael Moore’s production company took ailing Ground Zero responders to Cuba in a stunt aimed at showing that the U.S. health-care system is inferior to Fidel Castro’s socialized medicine, according to several sources with knowledge of the trip.///…Michael McCormack, 48, a disabled medic who found an American flag at Ground Zero that once flew atop the Twin Towers, was all set to go to.///”What he [Moore] wanted to do is shove it up George W’s rear end that 9/11 heroes had to go to a communist country to get adequate health care,” said McCormack, who suffers from chronic respiratory illness.//But McCormack said he was abandoned by Moore. At a March fund-raiser for another 9/11 responder in New Jersey, McCormack learned Moore had gone to Cuba without him.

‘Hillary-ous’ hype for Sanjaya in US
“Well, you know, people can vote for whomever they want. That’s true in my election, and its true on American Idol,” said Hillary, who is still top of the polls and in fundraising among Democratic aspirants.
With her ‘desi’ supporters under the banner of ‘Indian Americans for Hillary 2008,’ planning a fund-raising dinner with the likes of Arcelor Mittal chairman, Lakshmi Mittal and Hinduja Group’s, S P Hinduja on the guest list, she can ill afford a “macaca moment” that cost Republican senator George Allen his seat in November.
So, I don’t watch American Idol. I was at my neighbors one night last week and she watches religiously. I thought they all sucked.

Well, let’s think about it Getalife?
Don’t many of those contestants put their life’s hope and dreams into that competition?
Isn’t Stern a liberal who is, for his own personal entertainment, robbing them of those dreams?
Didn’t Hillary condone Stern’s vote robbing for her own political gain?

steve-o,
You have just spent how many posts attacking Marcus because he (OMG!!!!) plays tennis?
Tennis is an elite sport?
Here’s a factoid for you, steve-o - one of my mixed doubles partners is black like you.
Which either dispels the myth that blacks are stuck in poverty because of the evil white oppressors, or it destroys the myth that tennis is an elite sport.
Maybe both are true!
It’s too windy to go skeet shooting too, apparently. Probably too windy to do much of anything, including go for a sail considering the gale force winds. Yep, it’s too windy for everything except for idiot libs to dispel hot air into the atmosphere.
btw, it’s so cold and windy that the Verizon Golf Tournament in Hilton Head, SC was cancelled today too. That should make you happy since golf is an elite sport and we must punish anyone who participates in bourgeois, capitalistic pastimes.
Midori,
Do you ever get one fact correct? Berger was not “tried” for anything. He copped a ridiculous plea deal and I blame our Justice Department for that.
That doesn’t change the fact that he is a liar and a thief as his is former boss, Bill Clinton, who is the one person who really had a lot to hide.

Everything that a liberal tells you is Bullsh-it and needs to be independently verified.
The surest way to find out what I’m saying is true, ask yourself two questions 1) will it harm America? 2) are there tax dollars available?

Using your logic, then golf must not be an elite sport either because one of the sports great golfers is black. We play a lot of sports, BD. My brother and I both enjoy snowboarding and often go with a few of our evil white oppressor friends whenever I go out west. Dammit…I guess hitting the slopes is rather elitist too!

See how easy that was.
This story is a couple of days old but I do so enjoy reading these kind of articles.
“We have arrested many of the men responsible for attacks against Diwaniyah and Camp Echo thanks to the help of the citizens of Diwaniyah,” Garrett said. “If Maj. Gen. Oothman ever needs me, I will be here for him. If the people of Diwaniyah ever need me, I will be here for them and I will be here fast.”

Damn, you just can’t read them often enough.
But Rundquist has also talked with Iraqi children. A feeling of compassion for the Iraqi people now dominates his attitude.
“People actually have to live around that stuff 24 hours a day, and people will and are getting killed,” he said. “I would somehow like to help. They deserve it - a normal life away from all this war.”
Before he joined the Army, Rundquist worked and spent time with his friends like most people his age. He said his experiences in Baqubah make him feel like he is living a small part of history.
Sometimes he thinks, “Look what you were, now look what you are … look where you have gone. Now, you are in Iraq, halfway around the world, in a street in Baqubah, in a firefight.”
He will remember when he returns home that war is not like what it’s portrayed as on the news, he said.
Until then, he is determined to keep his mind here in Iraq, and as the new kid in his squad, he’s determined to be an asset to his team.
“I’m going to keep my morale high, because I do not want to let anybody down,” he said.
I think I need a tissue. This kid knows what’s important.

Oops Getalife, I don’t hang around, sitting in one spot, but I did have this open window so….
Hmmmmmm! Where does the buck stop in government?
Like Andy, I think Bush has accepted responsibility for his mistakes in Iraq. I was proud of him when he did.
However, before the radical 60’s our government was a vertical one. The buck stopped at the top. After the radical 60’s we became horizontal, so IMO the buck stops along that horizontal line.
The initiative to go into Iraq was a joint one. Therefore, I think that BUCK has to be shared with Congress, Democrats included.
How are they going to spend it now that the Democrats are in control?
They’re going to try to “buck” their own initiative by surrendering to the terrorists. Then they’ll find some way to blame it on Bush and the Republicans.
My 50 cents is on Bush and our military.
I’m betting the Iraqis and the U.S. will be getting a good return on that 50 cents.
The Democratic congress will lose.
Al Qaeda in Iraq will lose.
