Following the offensive tweet made by a KitchenAid employee which read: "Obamas gma even knew it was going 2 b bad! 'She died 3 days b4 he became president" An apology was issues and the only action taken was to say "It was carelessly sent in error by a member of our Twitter team who, needless to say, won't be tweeting for us anymore." This person needs to be terminated, there is far too much of this sort of hatred out there for a well known and respected company like KitchenAid to continue to knowingly employ such a person.

The Massachusetts Women’s Defense Corps (MWDC) was authorized on 2 April 1941 as a state force under the jurisdiction of the Massachusetts Committee on Public Safety; a state govt. agency that coordinated civil defense during World War II. The initial concept of the MWDC was that it would conduct training for women to serve as volunteers in local Civil Defense agencies. Approximately, 18,000 women were trained for duty as air raid wardens, drivers, communications personnel, canteen workers, medics, chemical detection personnel and as emergency fire fighters. In 1942 graduates of the MWDC School were formally enlisted into the Corps and assigned ranks. MWDC personnel wore brown military-type uniforms purchased at their own expense. Personnel were assigned to companies that were organized into eight geographic battalions around the state. The average strength of the Corps was 1,600 women. The only recognition that Corps personnel received was the award of a ribbon for three years service. The story of the WDC and its service to the Commonwealth is virtually unknown.

States are strapped for cash so they are letting go teachers police officers and other public workers. I suggest that to save money all legislators drive their own cars and buy their own gas. Sell all the state cars and helicopters. Pay the legislators the state minimum wage oly for hours actually worked (punch card)

Although I am a noncriminal, law-abiding citizen, I am currently serving six months of the Misdemeanor Drug Court Prevention program, and although I have nothing but respect for the law and acknowledge that I have a debt to pay to society regardless of whether or not I agree with it, I can say that MDCP is the single largest waste of both our law enforcement/judicial resources and taxpayer dollars, and furthermore, given the scientific evidence that outweighs and disproves decades of government propaganda, I wish to enjoy my marijuana in the safety and comfort of my own home. I am calling on those who favor RESPONSIBLE recreational use of marijuana, through a state regulated, monitored and taxed agricultural production, distribution and retail system to sign this petition.

Christopher Columbus should not be celebrated as a national hero. We are doing the indigenous people of our nation an injustice by observing this holiday as is.

Requires members of Congress, both in the Senate and the House, to be subject to the same laws they pass for the rest of the citizens of the United States and vice versa. We have all been affected by the current laws which do not treat members of Congress the same as the average citizen.

On Oct. 3rd, Mitt Romney said, "I’m sorry, Jim, I’m going to stop the subsidy to PBS. I’m going to stop other things. I like PBS, I love Big Bird. Actually like you, too." Help save the Public Broadcasting Station funding by telling Romney and those who want to end Public Broadcasting and NPR by eliminating funding. Conservatives want to de-fund public television and radio on the back of Big Bird. Save Big Bird's job by signing this petition. We need 1 million signatures.

Richard Nixon's PLAUSIBLE DENIABILITY STANDARD You can do something shady as long as you can give a believable but false denial of it. Mitt Romney's PLAUSIBLE RELIABILITY STANDARD You can say something just so incompletely that it is reliably believable, but false as understood.

President Obama is prepping for his second debate against Mitt Romney. Romney has been citing the unemployment numbers all this time. Now he's downplaying latest number, 7.8%. It's not surprising that he was happy to talk about the figure when it was above 8%. Sure, the country could use more jobs, but the fact is that when the president took office, we were losing hundreds of thousands of jobs per month. The fact is that that during the Obama presidency, we've added jobs. Would we like to speed things up? Sure, but remember what Clinton said at the convention. The republicans feel we didn't clean up their mess quickly enough, so they want back in. Not going to happen. Let the president know that we need him to defend the progress we've made. Let him know that you want him to, "be clear" about how far we've really come since dems won the white house in 2008. We're almost there, lets not let Romney's false claims determine the winner of this election.
