Why not try something New?

With all the brouhaha over the MCS board voting to surrender their charter, why not use this as an opportunity to try something completely new; school vouchers. Why don't we empower the parents that do care and bring competition back into the equation? We already have proof that it works. SCS spend $2K less than MCS per child; yet SCS have better schools. I haven't seen anyone touting the success of MCS; just complaining about SCS being better. SCS already has a problem with kids who live outside the district going to their schools. Why is that? Why not give each parent a voucher for each child. They can then use that voucher to enroll their child in the school of their choice. The schools would then have to compete for students, instead of having a monopoly. The schools would be better. They would start coming up with solutions for educating the children instead of being complacent because they know that they won’t be able to keep their job if their school doesn’t attract students.

Just a thought. . .

I turned my Bathroom into a spa last night.

Last night, NCIS LA wasn't on and I didn't want to watch football, so I took the time to pamper myself. I lit a candle in my bathroom and started with cleansing my face and then restored my ph balance with toner. I then applied BC spa Multi-Acid Resurfacing Peel. While that was working, I applied Lip Apeel to my dry lips and BC spa Pedicure Foot Spray and put on my spa socks.

After leaving the Chemical Peel on my face for 20 minutes, I then set my timer for 3 minutes and used BC spa Resurface Microderm Abrasion. I removed my Lip Apeel while rinsing my face after the Microderm Abrasion. I then re-rinsed my face with tonic and applied Cell Block-C PM to protect the new skin that the Microderm Abrasion revealed and also for an intensive moisturizer. I also applied Lip Balm ~which is the 2nd step of Lip Apeel~ and applied BC spa Pedicure Instant Pedicure Scrub and Cooling Foot Salve. My feet felt soooo soft. I then put on a fresh pair of spa socks to sleep in.

I then cuddled up in front of the fire and watched "Last of the Summer Wine" on PBS. My face felt wonderful this morning. I didn't have to take the time or money to go to a spa. I turned my Bathroom into a spa on when I had time. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

1/2 Price spa Stocking Stuffers

Just doing my little bit to help Santa.

Here is a link for 1/2 Price spa Stocking Stuffers. Great to give to Christmas hostesses, co-workers, friends or as a way to say Thank You to your favorite helper at the bank, grocery store or Starbucks.

Merry Christmas!

Breitbart has Done It Again!

I love Andrew Breitbart. He is truly a modern day Patriot. Remember the ACORN Stings? Remember Shirley Sherrod and the USDA. The lightening rate that the administration fired her made Breitbart curious. Isn't that what the media is supposed to be? Curious? Well, he started digging and what he has found is known as Pigford. A story of true discrimination by the USDA of some black farmers that has been turned into reparations that many of the race hustlers in the black community have been dreaming of for over 40 years.

Breitbart has teamed up with an unlikely partner from HuffPo named Lee Stranahan to do video documentary of Pigford. He's been traveling around the South and this clip is from an interview in AR where one of the Pigford lawyers admits to the fraud that has been committed against the American taxpayer thru Pigford.



Here's the beginning of the story and how and why Breitbart started digging. The story traces all the way back to the primaries and presidential race of 2008 and BO. It needs to be investigated and pronto. My dh's family farmed in AR and we lived in a small farming community for several years. Believe me when I say that there is still racism there. Those black farmers that were discriminated against deserve justice, but that's not what's happening with Pigford. As usual, the Demonrats have turned this into a payoff and bribe for them to stay in power.

Let the Competition Begin!

I am a huge Sarah Palin fan. I love what she stands for. I love her record as governor of Alaska where she went toe-to-toe with Big Oil and won. I love how she cut spending even when Alaska was doing well. She returned the taxpayers money instead of spending it. ~What a novel idea!~ I love how she took on the Republican ~crooked~ establishment and cleaned Juneau up. I love how she sends the leftists into fits with a word on her hand. I think she will be a wonderful President and I hope to work on her campaign.

I'm also a Free Market Capitalist and believe that competition is good. Competition brings out the best in business and in life. These days, I'm learning more about Herman Cain. So far, from what I've read and listened to, I could get behind him for President.

Wouldn't it be awesome to have a debate with Cain, Palin and maybe someone like Pence or DeMint? They would rip apart someone like Romney or some other candidate that the LSM would want to run.

I say Let the Competition Begin!

Constitutional Classes for Congress?!?

How sad that this is necessary, but it's true. Most Congressmen don't know the Constitution; either that or they are willfully subverting the Founding document of this great country.

Michele Bachmann is starting Consitution classes for Congress in January. Justice Scalia will be teaching Congress about the Constitution and The Declaration of Independance. Let's hope they are good students.
