The Prince Of Darkness Makes Alan Colmes Disappear
Alan Colmes decided, foolishly, to push and press Robert "Bob" Novak, aka, The Prince of Darkness (POD) on Bush, Cheney and Valerie Blame tonight on Fox New's "Hannity and * ".
POD basically cut off Colmes head, gave him the POD look and *poof* no more Alan. Just a little pile of ashes and a pair of glasses.

Proclamation of Thanksgiving
Washington, D.C.
October 3, 1863
This is the proclamation which set the precedent for America's national day of Thanksgiving. During his administration, President Lincoln issued many orders like this. For example, on November 28, 1861, he ordered government departments closed for a local day of thanksgiving.
Sarah Josepha Hale, a prominent magazine editor, wrote a letter to Lincoln on 28, 1863, urging him to have the "day of our annual Thanksgiving made a National and fixed Union Festival." She wrote, "You may have observed that, for some years past, there has been an increasing interest felt in our land to have the Thanksgiving held on the same day, in all the States; it now needs National recognition and authoritive fixation, only, to become permanently, an American custom and institution." The document below sets apart the last Thursday of November "as a day of Thanksgiving and Praise."
According to an April 1, 1864, letter from John Nicolay, one of President Lincoln's secretaries, this document was written by Secretary of State William Seward, and the original was in his handwriting. On October 3, 1863, fellow Cabinet member Gideon Welles recorded in his diary that he complimented Seward on his work. A year later the manuscript was sold to benefit Union troops.

A Proclamation.
The year that is drawing towards its close, has been filled with the blessings of fruitful fields and healthful skies. To these bounties, which are so constantly enjoyed that we are prone to forget the source from which they come, others have been added, which are of so extraordinary a nature, that they cannot fail to penetrate and soften even the heart which is habitually insensible to the ever watchful providence of Almighty God. In the midst of a civil war of unequaled magnitude and severity, which has sometimes seemed to foreign States to invite and to provoke their aggression, peace has been preserved with all nations, order has been maintained, the laws have been respected and obeyed, and harmony has prevailed everywhere except in the theatre of military conflict; while that theatre has been greatly contracted by the advancing armies and navies of the Union. Needful diversions of wealth and of strength from the fields of peaceful industry to the national defence, have not arrested the plough, the shuttle or the ship; the axe has enlarged the borders of our settlements, and the mines, as well of iron and coal as of the precious metals, have yielded even more abundantly than heretofore. Population has steadily increased, notwithstanding the waste that has been made in the camp, the siege and the battle-field; and the country, rejoicing in the consiousness of augmented strength and vigor, is permitted to expect continuance of years with large increase of freedom. No human counsel hath devised nor hath any mortal hand worked out these great things. They are the gracious gifts of the Most High God, who, while dealing with us in anger for our sins, hath nevertheless remembered mercy. It has seemed to me fit and proper that they should be solemnly, reverently and gratefully acknowledged as with one heart and one voice by the whole American People. I do therefore invite my fellow citizens in every part of the United States, and also those who are at sea and those who are sojourning in foreign lands, to set apart and observe the last Thursday of November next, as a day of Thanksgiving and Praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the Heavens. And I recommend to them that while offering up the ascriptions justly due to Him for such singular deliverances and blessings, they do also, with humble penitence for our national perverseness and disobedience, commend to His tender care all those who have become widows, orphans, mourners or sufferers in the lamentable civil strife in which we are unavoidably engaged, and fervently implore the interposition of the Almighty Hand to heal the wounds of the nation and to restore it as soon as may be consistent with the Divine purposes to the full enjoyment of peace, harmony, tranquillity and Union.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Seal of the United States to be affixed.
Done at the City of Washington, this Third day of October, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-three, and of the Independence of the Unites States the Eighty-eighth.

William H. Seward,Secretary of State
I hope you have a wonderful and meaningful Thanksgiving. God bless our troops, may they be victorious and God bless America.

TABOR, Oklahoma And Government Coercion
This is normal thuggish behavior from big government types. Drew Edmondson, OK AG, says that he is only following the law, which is a crock of crap. He is following the marching orders of big government groups and government unions that depend on the constant growth of government to get rich and garner more power over the people. Edmondson is dancing with them now so that later he can crawl into bed with them for big campaign donations as he runs for higher office. They have a name for those that get into bed for profit.
Shame on AG Drew Edmondson and the state of Oklahoma for doing this and further restricting freedom. I hope the good people of the state throw them out of office.
To control the growth and power of government at the local, state and federal level is an honorable thing. That is why government unions, teacher's unions and union organizers wouldn't understand.
Set them free Edmondson. You're looking bad and you're looking at defeat because of it. People are getting tired of being bullied by unions that don't represent them or their beliefs.
Many unions have become unAmerican.

Oklahoma's Most Wanted
A veteran political activist is facing 10 years in prison and a hefty
fine for attempting to petition government for redress of grievances. The latest
news from Pakistan? No, this is happening in Oklahoma.
Last month Paul Jacob, the former head of U.S. Term Limits and
current head of Citizens in Charge, was led out of an Oklahoma City courtroom in
handcuffs after pleading not guilty to charges that he conspired to defraud the
state. Oklahoma Attorney General Drew Edmondson, who's overseeing this bizarre prosecution, has accused Mr. Jacob and two fellow petition organizers -- Rick Carpenter of Oklahomans in Action and Susan Johnson of National Voter Outreach -- of bringing out-of-state petition gatherers to Oklahoma to collect
signatures.
In 2005 Mr. Carpenter, a Tulsan, launched a signature campaign to get a
state-wide vote on a Taxpayer Bill of Rights. Tabor, as it is known, would cap
the rate at which state government spending could increase. Mr. Jacob and Ms.
Johnson were later brought on board to assist the effort. Not surprisingly,
politicians and interest groups that favor big government have developed an
intense dislike for Tabor spending limits, even though, like lawmaker term
limits, they tend to be popular with voters.
To control the growth and power of government at the local, state and federal level is an honorable thing. That is why government unions, teacher's unions and union organizers wouldn't understand.
Set them free Edmondson. You're looking bad and you're looking at defeat because of it. People are getting tired of being bullied by unions that don't represent them or their beliefs.
Many unions have become unAmerican.
Time For U.S. To Take Charge In Afghanistan Again
Many of our "allies" in NATO have been nipping at the heels of the United States over the War on Terror for years now. Like little rat dogs that the crazy lady down the street owns, the know-it-alls in Europe called President Bush a cowboy, America blood thirsty and all of us too stupid to understand the nuanced needs of the world. Maybe there is a joke that starts, " A German Pomeranian, a Toy French Poodle and a little Spanish Ratting Dog walk into a bar..." If so, it might be as ludicrous as their effort in Afghanistan.
To see what a crackerjack job their "experts" have done one only need look at Afghanistan.
Resurgent Taliban closing in on Kabul: report
The same group of countries and their media have been criticizing and complaining about America's War on Terro and the handling of that war's part in Iraq was handed a sudued Afghanistan for NATO to command. The same countries that cowardly quivered in fear as they tried to tell us how to do our job in Iraq have now gotten together to show the world how to properly screw the pooch in Afghanistan. America lost soldiers so NATO could lose a country?Good job.

San Francisco's Nonsex Sexuality Psychobabble
San Francisco approves ID cards that exclude gender? Why bother anymore? I mean, could one tell?
I do have one question because of a sentence tucked in the middle of the article.

city services such as checking out library books.
