State Senator Tom Courtney vowed he would get even with business in Iowa when he and his party comrades took control of the Iowa Legislature. How are Tom and his cohorts doing?
A 2008 article in U S News and World Report article on the worst states to start a business in placed West Virginia at the bottom of the coal pit. On the corn crib floor as second of the worst was Iowa.
Have you seen any more recent data on this subject? Tom has been doing his best wrest the title from West Virginia. Has Senator Courtney made us first of the worst?
Just wanted to clear the air for my friend Mike Sweet. Shirley Sherrod had been asked to resign by the White House, denounced by the NAACP and castigated by CNN before Fox News ever reported the story. As for the Glenn Beck spin, Beck was already on the air before the story was reported by Fox. So the comment from Sherrod's boss that she was going to be on Glenn Beck that afternoon is just wishful dreaming.
As for Tom Vilsack's role, he is nothing more than grease for the Obama Spin Wagon of Crap. Too bad. I liked Tom. He deserves a better president than Barry Sotero.
Progressive Left Wing Media Matters - "Sherrod A Racist"
Media Matters, the ultra left wing progressive think tank of liberal brain-washers, has even recognized Shirley Sherrod is fake. The world-is-not-enough George Soros is the money behind Media Matters. Media Matters is Mike Sweet's path of left wing myopic enlightenment.
"Media Matters for America is a Web-based, not-for-profit, 501(c)(3) progressive research and information center dedicated to comprehensively monitoring, analyzing, and correcting conservative misinformation in the U.S. media.
