   http://www.zdnet.com/cispa-passes-u-s-house-death-of-the-fourth-amendment-7000014205/ This is pathetic, more random witchhunts, invasion of privacy, and looking for something for nothing more than the sake of looking for something... because knowing who is surfing porn or posting on facebook at work is sooooo critical to national security.

   Do homeless people deserve their own "bill of rights?" One California lawmaker says yes. Tuesday, a bill was making its way through the state Capitol that would allow homeless people to sit, sleep and panhandle in public. http://abclocal.go.com/kabc/story?section=news/state&id=9077127 Only in California! And they originally wanted to make urinating in public legal. Unreal

   Saudi student Abdul Rahman Ali Issa Al-Salimi Al-Harbi was injured in the Boston Marathon Bombings. He was once a “person of interest� in the bombings. He was put on a terror watch list after the bombings. Michelle Obama visited al-Harbi in the hospital last week. He posted pictures on his Facebook page. Then there’s this… Abdul Rahman Al-Harbi has visited the White House several times since 2009. http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2013/04/breaking-saudi-student-alharbi-visited-the-white-house-several-times-since-2009/

    Yet another example of Congress messing something up

    http://www.firsttoserve.com/The_News/Latest_News/Competitive_Bidding..._and_YOU!/ Yep, only Congress would allow spending to grow even where it is supposed to decrease. No wonder we have $16 trillion of debt. As someone who has been in the home healthcare business for 2 decades, I see firsthand how Congress is fracking up home healthcare businesses left and right. Same thing with the stupid Deficit Reduction Act, which hasn't reduced it any, but has forced a few home healthcare businesses out of business. I wouldn't trust Congress to run a lemonade stand!
