Good Day to be Retired

We haven’t had a lot of snow this winter but we are going to get some today. We have about 10″ on the ground now and it’s snowing hard and supposed to snow all day.
 Yee Haw!!
 A great day to be retired.



The scene early this morning on I-25.

Think about it

Think about this………

Romney and his backers outspent Newt in SC by a 2 to 1 margin and lost.
They outspent Newt in Florida 5 to 1 and they won.
 
Today, Indiana became a Right to Work for Less state. Romney supports Right to Work for LESS.
Also today, the UPS stock outlook was upgraded based on the UPS’s good financial health.


So think about this…..Unions grow weaker, UPS is healthy, unemployement is high and there could possibly be a union-hating President in 2013. Would UPS force you out on strike, then lock you out and replace you until the Teamsters just go away in a couple of years.

How long could YOU hold out???



Are These Supporters of Romney Supporting the Middle Class?

The SuperPac Attack!
Below is a list  of “Super-Pac Donors to Romney from the New York Times. Is this a “who’s who of the people supporting the benefit of the middle class? I doubt it, it looks more like the 1 percenters looking to continue their lock on our government.

All told, the group, Restore Our Future, raised about $18 million from just 200 donors in the second half of 2011.

Millions of dollars came from financial industry executives, including Mr. Romney’s former colleagues at Bain Capital, who contributed a total of $750,000; senior executives at Goldman Sachs, who contributed $385,000; and some of the most prominent and politically active Republicans in the hedge fund world, three of whom gave $1 million each: Robert Mercer of Renaissance Technologies; Paul Singer of Elliott Management, and Julian Robertson of Tiger Management.

Harlan Crow, the Texas construction magnate, gave $300,000 personally and through his company. William Koch, whose brothers Charles and David are among the country’s most prominent backers of conservative causes, gave $1 million personally or through Oxbow Carbon, the energy company he founded. Members of the Walton family, founders of the Walmart chain, gave over $200,000, while Bob Perry — a wealthy home builder who has long been the top patron of Mr. Romney’s erstwhile rival, Gov. Rick Perry of Texas — chipped in $500,000 in early December
