Well so much for that, I guess.. Walmart wins one with the judges..
This is how the AP reports it:
"The Supreme Court blocked the largest sex-discrimination lawsuit in U.S. history on Monday, siding with Wal-Mart and against up to 1.6 million female workers in a decision that makes it harder to mount large-scale bias claims against the nation’s other huge companies, too"Harder to mount bias claims is an understatement.. what an amazing decision from the Supreme Court.
Sorry NEWSWEEK… Or… DAILY BEAST, whichever you’d like to be called right.. but NAFTA the shafta started in ‘94, when the President pictured on your latest cover was in charge…Case of the Mondays
Once again time to avoid calamities on earth and on highways, too.. May no shredded truck tires impede your progression full sale into a wonderful week.
I'm looking for answers here....
Readers, viewers, listeners, fans, friends… Give me your thoughts… I had a late night Father’s Day talk with my own father last night. We dicussed some interesting issues, including this: What would happen if robots took over earth? Would they suck away oxygen? ..destroy humans? … kill us all? It could happen. We have given our technology almost more power than us..Send me your thoughts on my open lines page.. And I’ll answer..

Some truly horrific details emerge about an infant's killing in Pennsylvania
"Barrise eventually gave birth to a baby girl in Fitzpatrick’s vehicle.
The baby landed on the floor. No one touched the crying baby. All of this took place in front of the eleven year old.
Fitzpatrick told Barrise they were not keeping the baby because they could not afford it.
Court papers go on to say Fitzpatrick drove Barrise and his sister to their home at the Hideout with the baby on the floor of his vehicle.
Before he pulled out, he told Barrise he was going to get rid of the baby.
Barrise asked for a third time if he was going to kill it and again, he did not respond.
Fitzpatrick said he went to his workplace in the woods behind M n’ D Lawn and Tree Care.
There, according to the court papers, he killed the baby, hitting her twice with a cinderblock, and left the cinderblock on top of the baby”
I first was very emotional when I read this story… I then became enraged with anger..
It amazes me how often people make the choice to kill a baby instead of doing something sensible like adoption or even leaving at a hospital.. Killing somehow becomes an option for people. What does that say about society…
Some truly horrific details emerge about an infant's killing in Pennsylvania
For those who would be interested...
…last night’s Coast to Coast AM project, hosted by Ian Punett, had a pretty interesting topic: A professor discussed how the primitive, animalistic underside of human nature, with its sexual fantasies and homicidal tendencies, has actually given rise to the most positive features of our race.
It’s worth listening to if you should do be inclined..
A bad kickout? ..maybe time to go back to rehab.. Amy Winehouse booed in Belgrade .. *Note, this is a comeback tour.
The Republicans may as well have just had someone come out and performed in blackface!
A little tension after an Obama impersonator, Reggie Brown, crossed the line during a comedic bit at the Republican Leadership Contest.
POLITICO reports:
"The Obama impersonator, Reggie Brown, said that while the First Lady celebrated all of Black History Month, the bi-racial president only celebrated half the month.
Brown also said: “My mother loved a black man, and she was not a Kardashian.”
Flashing a picture on the screen of Fred Sanford of “Sanford and Son” fame, the comedian said that’s what Obama would look like when he got older.”
POLITICO went on to report: “As Brown was preparing to make a Michele Bachmann joke, one of the conference’s officials came out to the lectern and told the comedian to leave the stage.”
Yet another major hack on Sega
Japanese video game developer Sega Corp said on Sunday that information belonging to 1.3 million customers has been stolen from its database..
My all the Coal Speaker readers in New Jersey
..especially Asbury Park.. The STONE PONY released a statement today,
