McCain And Graham Call To Suspend Aid To Egypt

 WEASELZIPPERS.US 6 Hours Ago McCain And Graham Call To Suspend Aid To Egypt With all the timing of one legged men in a butt-kicking contest, now they call for suspension of aid? Via John McCain  website: Washington, D.C .  ­– U.S. Senators John McCain (R-AZ) and Lindsey Graham (R-SC) today released the following statement on the latest developments in Egypt: "The massacre of civilians this week in Egypt has brought our longstanding relationship with that country to a fork in the road. The interim civilian government and security forces – backed up, unfortunately, by the military – are taking Egypt down a dark path, one that the United States cannot and should not travel with them. "We condemn all acts and incitement of violence against civilians, including those that supporters of former president Mohamed Morsi have committed against Christians and other Egyptians. At the same time, we cannot be complicit in the mass slaughter of civilians. It is neither in our long-term nat

Republicans vote to exclude CNN and NBC from 2016 debates

 RAW STORY 10 Hours Ago Republicans vote to exclude CNN and NBC from 2016 debates by  David Ferguson By David FergusonFriday, August 16, 2013 12:49 EDT The Republican National Committee voted unanimously on Friday to exclude TV networks CNN and NBC from any Republican presidential primary debates.  According to  The Hill , the move is a form of retaliation against the networks for not bowing to the party's pressure to not air a pair of films about former Secretary of State (and putative 2016 Democratic presidential candidate) Hillary Clinton. "We don't have time for the media's games," said RNC Chairman Reince Priebus about the election, which is still more than three years away. "We're done putting up with this nonsense. There are plenty of other news outlets." The committee was meeting in Boston for its annual summer meeting.

Sad face: Michigan unions lose their right-to-work court challenge

 HOTAIR.COM 4 Hours Ago Sad face: Michigan unions lose their right-to-work court challenge by  Erika Johnsen posted at 6:41 pm on August 16, 2013 by Erika Johnsen Last winter , the state of Michigan officially became the country's 24th right-to-work state — it was a bold move for a state with so much manufacturing and so many sizable union interests on the line, and Big Labor was not at all pleased about the whole thing. They raised quite the ruckus over it at the time, and they have since been trying to challenge the state's right to implement the change in court.  Nothing doing , guys: The Michigan Legislature's right to create a law that bans mandatory union membership trumps the authority of a state agency that oversees public employment, an appeals court ruled on Thursday. The state legislature passed the "right to work" law in December amid union protests in Lansing, dealing a stunning blow to organized labor in the state that is home to U.S. automakers and

More ObamaCare Fixes

Friday, August 16th More ObamaCare Fixes It seems as though the unilateral and unconstitutional changes to ObamaCare aren't going to stop. In efforts to save their "train wreck" of a law, more changes to ObamaCare are coming our way. That is at least according to former White House adviser David Axelrod. He told MSNBC this morning, "Any time you implement something like this, it's new and there's no doubt that it's complicated, there will be changes along - there should be changes along the way." Oh really? Will those changes come from Congress, the branch responsible for writ
