More of This and That

We finally had some snow that stuck.. we have had 3 days and nights of snow, none of which did any sticking. This morning we had 3.5 inches of accumulated snow. Looks like a winter wonderland out there. So pretty.

I see old Jimmy Carter is at it again. Trying to insert himself as a peace maker.. The Jewish leaders are no dumb dumbs.. They told him where to put his olive branch. Nicely of course.

“I told him that the Jewish community, [which] has great respect for his work around the world, is extremely hurt, disappointed and frustrated from his views and that he cannot serve as an honest broker,” Rep. Gary Ackerman, a New York Democrat, told Forward.

I see Rudy Giuliani is hobnobbing with Sheldon Adelson.. He is the guy with all the casinos and some 28 billion dollars.

Congress...

We do not need a fight between Arabs and Jews in our Congress.. If they continue this then I suggest we bar them from Congress. How? I don't know, but we need to do it anyway, if they continue to fight and bicker. There are many more important things for them to be at odds with each other than because they are Arabs or Jews.


Issa’s letter angered Rep. Eliot Engel, a New York Democrat, who Issa singled out in his fund raising letter.

Engel “expressed shock” that a fund raising letter would use another member of Congress’ name, according to The Hill.

“This is unusual and I think it is unfortunate,” Engel said. “I understand as colleagues we are going to have differences but it is inappropriate to use anyone else in a fund raising letter.

Florida
Seems one of the house of Representatives from the State of Florida, Rubio, is suing the Governor of Florida..Crist.

Rubio maintains that Crist’s move “blatantly usurps” the power of the legislature, which was not consulted during the governor’s talks with the tribe.

This is not the first time Crist and Rubio have squared off. The Miami Herald reports: “From property taxes to global warming, Rubio has nipped at Crist’s policies on a variety of fronts to establish himself as a hard-line conservative who is upholding [former Gov.] Jeb Bush’s legacy.”
