From Fox News: McLEAN, Va. — It galled her to do it, but Sarah Dillon was desperate for answers, so she wrote letters to convicted snipers John Allen Muhammad and Lee Boyd Malvo: If you murdered my son, please confess, she wrote.
She got no reply.
"I've been waiting for answers for seven years," said Dillon, who took to wearing a button that said "Billy Gene Dillon is a very important person" as a reminder that his killing remains unsolved.
Sarah Dillon is not the only person with unanswered questions about the killing spree initiated by Muhammad and Malvo seven years ago, which culminated with 13 shootings and 10 deaths over a three-week span that terrorized the Washington region.
As Virginia prepares to execute Muhammad on Tuesday, authorities are unable to answer perhaps the most basic question about the killings: How many people did he and Malvo shoot and kill? http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,572910,00.html?test=latestnews
John Muhammad, a Muslim terrorist is going to die, hopefully on Tuesday. I would love to hear the lefties excuses why he should not be executed.
Muhammad is a terrorist but somhow I don't think he will be getting any 72 virgins, except, maybe these:

New NY Represenative Breaks 4 Camgaign Promises In A Day
Congressman-elect Bill Owens was sworn in at noon today.
Owens indicated in a press release released shortly afterwards that he was now in favor of the the "Affordable Healthcare for America Act" bill in direct contrast to his earlier position during the election campaign.
According to Politico.com, Mr. Owens assured voters that he felt the public option had no place in the health care reform bill. Contrary to that position, Mr. Owens now indicates that he intends to vote in favor of the bill even though it now contains a public option.

Well, he is a liberal and a Democrat. What do you expect, that he would honestely keep his word. Nah, just like most other liberals and Democrats, he is a liar. It is in their DNA.
To those in NY who just voted for this clown and a 1 year represenative: Suckers

Dina Titus and Shelly Berkley- Disgraced Mistresses of Nevada
Shelly Berkley and Dina Titus (D--Pelosi) showed why they are a disgrace to Nevada. Both voted for the health care bill that passed the House of Representatives tonight. Both sucked up to the teat of Nancy Pelosi.
I didn't really expect much from the mistresses. After all, Titus has never held a real job in her life and she is a professor at UNLV. She is an elitist who really doesn't have the cognitive ability to think like a person who actually has a job and pay taxes. She just sits in her Ivory Tower (Ok, in Las Vegas, it could be a cactus tower) writes papers and pretends to teach. I just don't think she is smart enough to know any better than to follow Pelosi.
Berkley is a socialist, plain and simple. She is one of Pelosi's lap dogs and when Nancy yelps, Berkley follows.
Both of these mistresses would be comfortable in certain businesses in Pahrump and Beatty as they sell out the working men and women of Nevada.
Berkley and Titus- mistresses of NV.

Congress Fiddles While The U.S. Burns
The U. S House of Representatives are fiddling while America falls apart before our eyes.
The House is debating the health care bill, which will add hundreds of billions of dollars to the country's deficit.
Meanwhile, the unemployment rate is around 17.5%, with millions of Americans out of work. Meanwhile the Obama administration completely lies about the numbers about how the stimulus saved or created jobs, losing creditability among the public.
Because millions are not working or working reduced hours, federal income tax revenues are down sharply, causing the deficit to grow. Income taxes to states that do have a state income tax are down sharply as well, causing more headaches to those states.
Meanwhile the slowly going bankrupt Social Security is now going towards bankruptcy rapidly. With those jobs gone, social security taxes collected is now reduced and those people who were at retirement age and were laid off probably have decided to take their social security checks.
Meanwhile, prices are going up. Gas prices in Vegas have gone up about 15 cents a gallon in the past couple of weeks. Food prices are going up at Wal-Mart- only nickels and dimes, but percentage wise, it is about 10% or more in some cases on many items. So, the families that are struggling with the basics are struggling even more with the basics.
Property taxes are going up in many areas of the country, so homeowners that are struggling struggle even more to pay more taxes to stay in their houses, while apartment dwellers will see their rents raised. We will see our expenses rise and we will cut back, causing more unemployment problems.
There are very few signs that the economy will be getting any better or unemployment will go down anytime soon.
But does Congress or Obama care? Nope. They are doing nothing about the economy. Now granted, Congress can't do very much. But they can do something. They can create incentives for companies to hire new workers. The Congress could put a freeze in collecting income tax for several months. The Feds can actually cut the deficit by reducing or eliminating programs.
I am just an average guy, working my butt off over 70 hours a week. I am blue collar and proud of it. I am also a union member, though I am conservative. I see this happening at the school I teach at and also at the Wal Mart I works at. I see this in my neighborhood and surrounding neighborhoods. But apparently, the congresscritters are too blind to see this. They are too insulated from the public and really have no clue what is going on.
So, Congress and Obama fiddles while the country burns and goes down the drain. Thank you Obama and Congress, we will remember this in 1 year.

Unemployment Rate at 17.5%
The unemployment rate has surpassed 10 percent for the first time since 1983 -- and is likely to go higher. Nearly 16 million people can't find jobs even though the worst recession since the Great Depression has apparently ended. The Labor Department said Friday that the economy shed a net total of 190,000 jobs in October, less than the downwardly revised 219,000 lost in September. August job losses were also revised lower, to 154,000 from 201,000.
But the loss of jobs last month exceeded economists' estimates. It's the 22nd straight month the U.S. economy has shed jobs, the longest on records dating back 70 years.
Counting those who have settled for part-time jobs or stopped looking for work, the unemployment rate would be 17.5 percent, the highest on records dating from 1994.
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Jobless-rate-tops-10-pct-for-apf-563122944.html?x=0&.v=8
This is a disgrace. This is Obama's economy and has been for several months. We, as Americans were promised by the Obama administration, Democrats and RINO's that the stimulus package would keep the unemployment rate around 8%.
But yet, the unemployment rate is getting worse and not expected to get any better in the near future.
But what is Congress's idea? Pass health care and raise taxes and pass the Cap and Trade and raise taxes and expenses on the American people and companies.
However there is one segment of American business where they should slash jobs and I would support 100% unemployment. If there were a sudden job loss of 536 positions in Washington D.C. and they are replaced by people who are competent, I would support that.
Again, Obama is responsible for this, along with Congress- Dem's and RINO's.

More Welfare For Unemployed
From The Las Vegas Sun: An estimated 10,000 Nevadans who have exhausted their unemployment benefits could be aided by a bill that gained final approval in Congress today.
The House passed the legislation 403-12 and sent the bill to President Obama. The Senate voted 98-0 Wednesday to extend jobless benefits by 14 weeks for every state -- with an additional six weeks, for a total of 20 weeks -- in high unemployment states where the jobless rate exceeds 8.5 percent...Mae Worthey, public information officer for the state Department of Employment, Training and Rehabilitation, said about 10,000 workers have lost their unemployment benefits. Some of them were getting checks for up to 79 weeks.
http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2009/nov/05/10000-jobless-nevadans-could-see-benefits-extended/
First, let me clear, for a person who has lost work, unemployment compensation is absolutely necessary to keep the unemployed from going totally broke. I have no problem using unemployment compensation as a safety net, just as it been intended.
But now, it is possible for someone who is unemployed in Nevada to receive unemployment compensation for 2 years. It is no longer a safety net but a way of life or lifestyle.
Six months of unemployment, great, maybe 9 months at the outside. But almost 2 years? If you cannot find a job, any job, in 2 years, it is time for you to either move to where the jobs are or look for another career.
I have been unemployed several times in my life but never more than 2 weeks. I would do any kind of job, regardless of the pay to get working again. For those 10,000 or more people who been on unemployment for over a year, you need to get off your lazy butt and go get work, no matter what it is. Stop living off of others.

Terrorist Attack At Ft. Hood?
Apparently a Major, with a Muslim sounding name went on a rampage at Fort Hood, killing at least 12 soldiers and wounding around 30.
Per ABC News: Twelve people have been killed and 31 wounded in a shooting spree at a Texas military base by what officials believe was possibly carried out by an Army officer. The suspected gunman was identified by ABC News as Major Malik Nadal Hasan.
The shooter was killed and two other suspects, who are also soldiers, have been apprehended, Lt. Gen. Robert W. Cone said.
http://abcnews.go.com/WN/soldiers-killed-fort-hood-shooting/story?id=9007938
If true, this seems like a coordinated terrorist attack and the first one since President Obama took over.
I hope the investigation is very thorough and the swiftest justice and harshest justice be handed out.

Wal-Mart Has To Pay, But Is It Fair?
Wal-Mart has to pay up to 85 million to attorneys/employees for workplace violations. U.S. "District Judge Philip M. Pro in Las Vegas approved the settlement yesterday and awarded one-third of the recovery in fees to the workers’ lawyers, up to about $28 million depending on the claims made. Walmart is to pay at least $65 million and as much as $85 million."
Two thoughts: I am an employee at Wal Mart and if they violated the law, they need to pay something.
The second thought is I got a form in the mail and I wasn't given an option whether to accept payment. I have work for Wal-Mart for 2 years and I have not had any problems with breaks, being locked in a store or any other time abuse. But I am still to receive a check for $50. Why? Wal Mart did not violate my rights, but they are going to pay me like they have? I have a problem with that. Even if I did not return the form, which I did not, I am still going to get paid. Again, why?
Ok, a third thought, why are the lawyers being paid up to $28 million? Did they do $28 million worth of work? Nah, didn't think so. Just a bunch scum bag lawyers.
And yes, if Wal-Mart wronged me, I would have taken the money.
Las Vegas Sun: CryBaby
Starting on Monday, the Las Vegas Sun got smaller. The reason being is they blamed the The Las Vegas-Review Journal for the problem. The LVRJ, a conservative paper and the Las Vegas Sun, an extreme lefty newspaper are the two main newspapers in Las Vegas. Like a typical liber, the lefty Sun has to depend on the conservative RJ to deliver it's newspaper.
So, the Sun has to cut it's size by 1 inch. Well, being a lefty paper, they should be happy. They are saving trees by using less paper. You are losing less ink, so that is good for the enviroment.
But, as usual, they bitched about it. They said they had to cut some puzzles and cut something by John Ralston, a liberal commentator who no one reads any ways.
Well, LV Sun, if you want to publish your own paper, go for it and stop depending on conservatives to do your dirty work, you hack of a liberal newspaper.

Pretty Good Night For Conservatives
The GOP took over the governorships in New Jersey and Virginia tonight. Virginia was not surprising but New Jersey was. I honestly though that Corizine would cheat his way to vistory.
The conservitive fell in NY 23, which is disappointing but better than a real Democrat won than a fake one in the GOP canidate.
The Dem's won in CA, but that was not surprising.
The loser- Obama. he put all his eggs in the New Jersey race and he lost, big time. Jersey is a big time blue state and an actual conservative won.
Right now, Harry Reid is crapping in his diaper in Nevada.
For 2010, look out for conservatives. Not RINO's, but actual conservatives.

Turkey Wars In Vegas
Turkey wars in Vegas has erupted. No, not the race for U.S. senator or governor.
The war is between Wal-Mart and Food For Less. Jennio turkeys are selling for as low as 40cents a pound at Wal Mart with White Honeysuckle for 60 cents a pound. At Food For Less, they are apparently selling turkeys for 37 cents a pound.
I just bought 60 pounds of turkey for about $27. Of course, now I know what I am going to be eating for the 5 months.
I am also not sure how long the war will last.

Barney Goes To The White House- No, Not That Barney
SEIU, home of the Barney Brigade because of their favorite color is purple, has a strong connection to the White House. Lead Barney, Andy Stern, President of the Barney Union (SEIU), has visited the White House 22 times since Obama has been inaugrated.
Somehow, I don't think he wasn't singing the Barney Song.

Operation Repo And Pawn Stars- Truth Or Fiction
I was quite naive when it came to reality shows when I first started watching them. I thought they were real and that includes Operation Repo and Pawns Stars.
Well, after watching the show, I am convinced the action is staged. For instance, in Operation Repo, when Matt rolled the car, why were there no police on the scene? When the guys get hit over the head with a bottle, why does it look like it is a breakable glass like they use in the movies.
In Pawn Stars, these people whop want to sell or pawn their things just don't walk into the store and start negotiating. I've seen it in person. They prep the employee what is going to come in, where to stand and the employees see the item before they film. That is reality?
So, it was disappointing that these are just reenactments. So, what else reenactments? I watching some cooking shows. Do they make the cooks make several takes when they are cooking? In ReHab at the Hard Rock, is that reenactments? I am pretty sure they are. Especially when they had that Texan the other night who acted like a spoiled child. That was way over the top. If that story was true, tell that Texan to stay home. Plus, when they fire someone, you don't do it on camera- that probably violates a whole lot of employment laws.
So, when Cops started, that was real but reality shows today are really not reality anymore. Just reenactments.

Why Liberals Cannot Be Trusted With Health Care Numbers
From Blue Sage Views, a blog that is spokesperson for Dina Titus, or at least that is how it seems says this: "Happy Halloween! HCAN plans a Grim Reaper Festival, Thursday October 29th, 11:00 am to 11:45 am, at the Thompson Federal Building, 300 Booth Street, Reno, NV. Why? Because in Nevada approximately 23,310 people per year are losing their health insurance, 1/3rd of the NV population under the age of 65 are uninsured (841,000), and the Grim Reaper is getting 5 people per week for lack of health insurance coverage"
http://bluesageviews.blogspot.com/2009/10/titus-co-sponsors-small-business-bill.html
Where do they get these numbers? I asked, but they refuse to respond.
5 people per week because they lack health insurance? Where do they get that number? The 23,310 number is also bogus. They may have lost their job and health insurance, but how many of those 23,000+ also got new health insurance either through a new job or government health care in dire consequences. And 841,000 uninsured under 65? Again where are the statistics? In the country, there about 12 million legal citizens who do not have health insurance and Nevada has about 7% of them? We don't have 7% of the U.S. population, so I call bull on those numbers.
So, once again, another Dina Titus supporter just spouts some more lies about health care.

What Is It With David Letterman And Sarah Palin?
I've accidentally watch David Letterman the other day and he was telling a joke about Sarah Palin. I've also read in the LV Sun and RJ, when they have comments from the late night show and invariably, there is Letterman making fun of Sarah Palin. Why?
I guess, given the sexual harrassment at by Letterman at work, I kind of think he has a problem with women in general and strong conservative women in particular.
Letterman is just a rich pathetic human being, who has some serious problems with women. And BTW is really not that funny.

Global Warming: Sometimes It's A Good Thing
Today, the temperature today in Vegas is in the low 80's. It is a wonderful day- sunny skies, no humidity and no wind.
Normal highs are in the low 70's.
Sometimes global warming is a very nice thing, even though it is a hoax.
