This Friday we will cover -

CCS AND IDAHO SCHOOL DISTRICT TAKE PAY CUTS TO SAVE JOBS - It was nice to see common sense prevail in regards to job cuts vs pay cuts. Community colleges of Spokane cut pay to avoid job cuts and financial emergency. And we also had the CDA school district cut pay 2.5% in an effort to save people from unemployment. So now we have to ask if Spokane and it's workers are willing to work together and suffer together to avoid more job cuts?

FDA FINALLY SET TO REGULATE BIG TOBACCO - After all these years, we finally have the FDA getting the legal rights to regulate big tobacco. This is DECADES late in coming. One has to wonder how many lives were traded for the all mighty dollar in Big Tobacco's fight against regulation. This is yet another example of how government sometimes needs to regulate in a educated manor to keep people from killing each other.

IRAN VOTING FRIDAY IN PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS - This friday is the election for President of Iran. You have the current president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad vs more moderate candiates. This could be an interesting change in power, especially when coupled with the western backed victory in Lebanon's latest elections.

HOLLYWOOD AND CALIFORNIA "BUDGET" DRAMA!! - We have yet another episode of "California" budget drama. This weeks show features the Governator threatening to bring California to a halt. And with this we also have the threat of the complete loss of WELFARE in California. Is this really the best thing for the citizens of California? And what are the state leaders really doing, solving problems or playing party politics with peoples lives? And remember, as Californai goes, so goes America...

GOOD OBAMA/BAD OBAMA - Here is this weeks scorecard,

GOOD OBAMA = Pushing Israel to accept a two state solution.

BAD OBAMA = Trying to regulate free market pay. Just tax high wages/capital gains and skip the micromanaging.

YOU ARE NO LONGER BEING REPRESENTED BY YOUR GOVERNMENT. IT'S TIME FOR A TAX REVOLT!
