Spell Check


The Decider
From Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, campaigning in Iowa on Tuesday: I thought this would be decided by now, and therefore I could tell you whether I agreed or I disagreed. But it hasn’t been decided, and I feel now I’ve got a responsibility to you and to other voters who ask me about this. (Wall Street Journal, 9/23/2015)

This deserves to be read carefully. Basically Hillary says that she expected Keystone to be resolved, after which she would have told us whether she agreed or disagreed. 

How is that for leadership!


Anomalous
The Transportation Security Administration defended its officers’ treatment of a transgender woman on Tuesday, a day after she says she was harassed and held for 40 minutes while passing through security in Orlando, Fla., causing her to miss a flight.

The transgender woman, Shadi Petosky, said Tuesday in an interview that T.S.A. officers at Orlando International Airport calibrated the full-body scanner for a woman, and the device flagged what officers called an “anomaly” in the groin area. (New York Times, 9/23/2015)

So once again it is left to RedStateVT to set the record right. Given the "anomaly" found by the T.S.A. it is clear that dear Shadi is not "transgendered." That is when you have the anomaly removed. Shadi is a transvestite, i.e. a dude who dresses up in ladies clothes. We are happy to provide this clarification, but how many times are we going to have to do so?


Politics
Energy and policy experts have long said that the battle over Keystone XL is chiefly political, because the pipeline would have little effect on either climate change or the United States job market. A State Department analysis last year found the pipeline would not significantly add to carbon pollution, because the oil was already reaching refineries by other pipelines and by rail. (New York Times, 9/23/2015)

So energy experts - many of whom we can call scientists - say Keystone XL will not impact the climate. Yet Liberals oppose it. Let's call them what they are: pipeline deniers, science deniers. 


Coffee Time
Last year, Starbucks vowed to provide store employees with more consistent schedules from week to week, and to post their schedules at least 10 days in advance. The company said it would stop asking workers to endure the sleep-depriving ritual known as a “clopening,” which requires them to shut down a store at night only to return early the next morning to help open it.

But Starbucks has fallen short on these promises, according to interviews with five current or recent workers at several locations across the country. Most complained that they often receive their schedules one week or less in advance, and that the schedules vary substantially every few weeks. Two said their stores still practiced clopenings. (New York Times, 9/23/2015)

The poor babes! They sometimes do not get their schedules one week in advance. And they have to come in to work early in the morning. What a generation of wimps we have in this country. Starbucks should fight back and point out that no one is forced to work at the grueling job of pouring coffee. Starbucks won't because it is part of the Liberal culture that has now turned on it. Note that the story is based on interviews with five employees. Five. Great journalism coup New York Times.


Recovery
F.B.I. investigators have recovered work-related and personal emails that Hillary Rodham Clinton said had been deleted from the server that housed the personal account she used exclusively when she was secretary of state, according to two government officials. (New York Times, 9/23/2015)

So maybe we can stop talking about whether a Muslim should be president for five minutes and talk about whether a former Secretary of State should be president.


7 Killed in Shootings Across New York City (New York Times headline, 9/23/2015)
Black lives matter.....right?
