RE: Batten down the hatches. point of such an imbecilic statement?
Well, the point is that most of the intellectuals on this site blame Obama for everything from the economy to the weather. Do you get my point now Mr . Imbicile?
RE: Batten down the hatches. Excellent point. This EU/Euro issue has been festering for quite a while (over 2 years) and has reached crises proportions. The deficit spending in the budgets of Italy, Greece, Spain, Portugal as well as France has created an untenable situation. The US’s 15 Trillion deficit is worse yet. Recent US Policy wants the US government to finance “new” technology that will create jobs that will enable the US to out grow the deficit. However, at the same time the US has become the most expensive place to start and maintain a business and there is one school of thought that wants to make it even more expensive by raising taxes & increasing regulatory control. The US is no longer the only game in town. Many manufactured items as well new technology research can be made/done anywhere in the world. Thus local taxing of multi-national corporations is a two edge sword. This morning H-P (Hewlett Packard) will cut 30,000 jobs. Don’t be surprised if many of these jobs end up in India, Thailand or Singapore.
Would you like to blame this on President Obama too?

Aren't all municipal & county hires pretty much political hires these days?
Sooner or later, it all comes out. Per Judicial Watch Verdict of 2010, volume 16, issue 12., the USAF reports on Nancy Pelosi's useage of USAF aircraft including her trips, guests such as grown children, grandchildren, in-laws, friends and hangers-on. Over 95% of the trips were for commuting between the west coast and D.C. Total trips: 85 over a 68 week period. Total mileage: 206,264. Total flying time: 428.6 hours. Cost to taxpayers,$2,100,744 or $27,715 per trip. Last but not least, cost of in flight food and alcohol, $101,429, or $1,193. per trip. On a trip to Baghdad, she had the bar stocked with Johnny Walker Red Scotch, Grey Goose Vodka, E&J Brandy, Bailey's Irish Cream, Makers Mark Whiskey, Courvoisier Cognac, Barcardi Rum, Jim Beam Whisky, Beeheater Gin, Dewars scotch, Bombay Sapphire Gin, Jack Daniels Whiskey, Corona Beer and several varities of wine. Now this is a congresswoman that knows how to travel, at our expense. Cut social security, hell no! Do away with the government elite, you bet. Be sure and vote in November.
I checked a number of online sites (calling themselves 'fact checkers') concerning the issue of Pelosi's use of the peoples' money for transportation to and from the west coast. The left leaning sites minimized the issue, claimed that her use was no different than her predcessor & claimed that Judicial Watch misrepresented the data released under FOI. The right leaning as one might expect had a different slant. Wouldn't it be nice if there was a source that gave you a straight answer including explaining the veracity of the sourses used to support these various parties' versions.
Batten down the hatches. If you are paying any attention to the economic situation in Europe, you are seeing some of the activities precluding a total meltdown of the Eurozone. The ripple effect is already being felt here and in China. At the same time, both political parties in the U.S. are ratcheting up talk of war with Iran. It may be needed to prevent the Iranian nut cases from starting WW III, but perhaps the results of attacking Iran will do the same thing. In any case, it would be the distraction needed by our elitists in D.C. to take our minds off the coming economic troubles to be added to those existing now. A good war does tend to take our minds off our day to day miseries. "What fools these mortals be" Meanwhile, we still do not have a budget in place and a raise in the debt ceiling will soon be required. De ja vu all over again.

Commissioner Zapotosky still has not filed his campaign expense report, as per Juile Toye. At this point he owes anywhere from $2000 to $3000 due to accrued fines and is clearly in violation of state election laws which, most importantly, prohibit officials from taking office until the expense report is filed. That means he is not a commissioner and all voting he has done is void and null. http://www.julietoye.com/zapotoskyexpe nsereports.html

This whole current Administration has so over-used AF one....and everything else. Hopefully, the voters (taxpayers) will send them all packing for their trips back home where they came from!!! You speak of Nancy Pelosi....Our current Defense Secty flies home EVERY WEEK-END at taxpayers expense to California. These "entitled" "elites" just love to spend OUR money, don't they???
RE: who is nicole young She could be a neighbor of his. Same area where he lives .
why would nt Ambrosini hire his neigbor Nicole Young as his $25,000 assistant. Ambrosini is hired his friends so far. Bud his campaign manager got a job at the North Municipal Water Authority at $18 plus an hour. Fred his campaign insider is on the airport board. Amy Revak herald standard reporter is now the $33,000 chief county clerk. Bob Carson Cville township supervisor is now the $41,000 Public works director. Etc Etc Etc

Toni ****** I have had enough...ready to pack my family and move to another town, and I know you find a$%h()les everywhere, but I am just tired of it period, between family and sports and school boards and people in general, why can't people just learn to be decent, is it really that hard to put someone above yourself? I do it more than I should but I do it because unlike most.... I ACTUALLY CARE and feel if you see a need fill that need. ok enough venting, lots to do tomorrow :) looking forward to brainstorming with Sherry ******!!!!
Can't wait till Obama gets re-elected. Im so tired of you idiots bashing our President. He showed amazing leadership and courage regarding his stance on*** marriage. The day is coming when all of us will be treated equally. I can't wait for his second term. Just look at all the grant money Connellsville has got. The downtown is finally looking respectible and attractive. I hope it encourages more enlighted and educated people to move into the area. Maybe we can replace some of the local bigots and dinosaurs living in this community. Four m years is exactly what we need.
Just dropped in...had a lapsed moment. This previous poster, You will see..... doesn't visit this site often or this post is meant to stir up the natives--get the dogs in the kennel barking again. Connellsville Discussion is NOT real discussion.....it's the local forum for right-winged bullies to parrot what Fox News programs them to regurgitate. Real discussion contains respect for another's point of view, intelligent listening, proper consideration and further exploration. That ain't here I will drop in again in months to come to see if some unknowing person posts about local Connellsville memories or history or shares some positive comments.

She could be a neighbor of his. Same area where he lives .
