I am a life-long Kansan and I feel our state officials that sit on the Kansas Objections Board are embarrassing our state by not rejecting out of hand the notion that Barack Obama is not a citizen. They are considering removal of his name from the ballot and meet again this Monday, September 17th, to consider the matter further. I want the board to reject the challenge brought to them that President Obama does not have the right to be on our state's ballot this November.

Ohioans are disgusted to learn that a lobbyist and former employee of Josh Mandel is running the dark group that has raised over $1 million to viciously attack his opponent, Senator Sherrod Brown. Allowing and encouraging these kinds of attack ads behind the scenes is unfair and misleading. I have followed Senator Brown's career and know him to be an honest, caring Congressman who does not deserve to be slandered in this manner.

At first pageants were just cute kids in frilly outfits, but now it has turned into kids pretending to smoke, dressing as strippers, even padded breasts are now the norm. Kids are often seen kicking,screaming,and BEGGING for there moms to stop with the make up and spray on tans! We need to change this.

This petition is to show Jefferson Parish leaders how important a small, professionally run, free concert series is to the well being and mindset of the local residents who graciously supported the Live @ Lafreniere Sunset Concert Series. Not only was it presented to give residents of Jefferson Parish a fun, family friendly event to share with their neighbors...it supported the local musicians, who have been a part of the region's culture and heritage for many years, as well as financially benefiting Lafreniere Park, the namesake of the event.

Anyone in his or her 40s, 50s, and 60s who has been forced out into the job market again by a layoff in this economy, knows how hard it is to find a new job and how prevalent the practice is of circumventing equal employment opportunity laws by 'prescreening' applicants by asking for their birthdate. It's time this blatantly discriminatory practice came to an end.

I've had a student loan since 1989. Due to school bankruptcy the schooling was interrupted: finished at another school, but without any benefit of placement. I have never worked in this field as a result and never netted a thin dime. Due to overwhelming circumstances I been able to pay very little, and the interest has grown exponentially. Now I'm retired on Social Security and DOE has taken a federal offset from my benefits to pay the loan. This works a real hardship with less than 900 to live on.

I think everyone is affected when churches campaign for a specific individual and/or party. There should be separation of church and state. No one enforces the law as it stands.

Lyme's Planning Board has developed its 2012 Master Plan draft based on a 2006 Community Attitude Survey that no longer reflects Lyme residents' ideas of the Town's current and future needs.

Labeling GMOs in California/nationwide

Until money does not equal free speech once again and corporations are not people we need this remedy.

For years, barn swallows have nested on the lamps at the recycling center where their babies are protected from the elements and predators. Recently, the county decided this is unacceptable and plans to use barriers to block the swallows from re-nesting at their chosen spot again next year. These beautiful, insect-eating birds do not pose any known health risks and state guidelines advise against interfering with their nesting. Please sign this petition urging King County to leave the site alone so that the swallows can return to their nests again next spring.
