Today is what would be Ronald Reagan's 99th birthday.
I am not entirely sure if there has ever been a person in the last century who was as real as the "actor president." Certainly, the very family values, coupled with family troubles, love of god and country, and most notably, enduring love for his wife Nancy. His loyalty second to none. In my estimation, Reagan was the last president we have had that truly believed in liberty, and how the economic slavery that government imposes on its people limits that liberty. He was the first president who advised against a socialized health scheme, recognizing the danger of giving so much of what should be individual choice to bureaucrats and politicians. He is as relevant today as when he spoke on such things when he was alive. He may be gone now, but his lessons are not. Happy Birthday Ronald Wilson Reagan.

A round of Bronx Cheers and boo birds go to the US House today. They voted 217-212 to raise the debt ceiling nearly $2 Trillion more dollars. Obama will sign this, proving that he is no fiscal conservative.
The House on Thursday voted to allow the government to go $1.9 trillion deeper in debt -- or about $6,000 more for every U.S. resident. The measure, approved 217-212, would raise the cap on federal borrowing to $14.3 trillion. That's enough to keep Congress from having to vote again before the November elections on an issue that is feeding a sense among voters that the government is spending too much and putting future generations under a mountain of debt to do it.

The goal of becoming recognized as one of the best school districts in Michigan is not as difficult to achieve as you might think. Sure, that recognition can be realized the old fashioned way by working hard in the classroom and honestly getting the standardized test scores up, but a much easier way can be found. How can you do this? Look beneath the fold... (475 words in story) Full Story By troykeith, Section News
Just over one year into his presidency, Mr. Obama is finding that true leadership requires more than lofty ideals, eloquent words and rigid partisanship. Facing a deficit of political capital that rivals that of our own country, he must now decide to push forward in defiance or to begin the slow and inevitable crawl back from the furthest corners of leftist ideology.
