Tennessee went McCain in 2008 and Gibson is definitely non-union. Punish the people that work for Gibson and make his environmental cronies happy at the same time. More of this to come if the Obama Administration stays in power.
There are ways to punish China, such as taxing the products made from rare earth materials they send us by 40%. Not the best solution but they would get the message. If only we had business minded people in Washington with a pair.
There was an editorial in the Tennessean this past weekend by Alexander about the bill. He felt it would be fair and stressed that the collection of taxes was optional and decided by each state. Come on, we know what it will be used for! How about fixing our current tax system first before work on bills that will be used to increase state revenue?
We knew this all along but don't expect the MSM to report about it. And why are we still allowing approximately 1.5 millon legal immigrants into the country every year given our high unemployment?
This is an Inconvenience for a self-absorbed president. He wants to fly around on Air Force 1 raising money for his reelection campaign and play golf. It sounds like some of the Dems decided someone was going to have to get something done, and that means going around Obama.
The only reason this happened is because TN is a conservative state and voted out the Democrats during our last election (Republicans now control the state house and senate). They have been proposing (and voting) for a lot of other legislation that have made the Democrats very unhappy. TN won't tolerate the antics that happened in Wisconsin. It will be interesting to see what happens.
If things still stink this time next year (high food/gasoline prices, high unemployment) then it will be unlikely that people will vote for Obama in the numbers they did in 2008. A lot can happen in a year, so I would not draw any conclusions at this point. I do, however, believe this will be the most important presidential election ever.
Liberals believe in idealistic utopia, and they will never think that their policies are anything more than a benefit. Anyone who complains is greedy and does not want to participate in "shared sacrifice."
This crap has been going on for some time, and ACORN is not the only group that works the taxpaper system. The outrageous spending of our federal government is a reflection of it and has only come to light thanks to the deligent reporting of the Breitbarts of the world.
Unless you are benefitting from one of these phat deals I don't know why anyone would want to live in CA and pay for this crap.
