The people of Brighton, Hartland, Howell, MI, and surrounding areas, ask Trader Joe's to consider opening up a Trader Joe's in our area. Many of us have to drive 40+ mins to the nearest Trader Joe's and would benefit massively from a healthy and affordable neighborhood grocery store. There is no other store like Trader Joe's in this area!

We are active organizers in the 17th district that believe that Cheri Bustos should step down as the candidate for Congress because she personally invests in companies that ship good American jobs overseas. Cheri has proven that she cannot be trusted to keep American jobs here at home, when she is personally profiting from outsourcing.

scrap the caps on Social Security's "contribution and benefit base," also known as the "maximum taxable wage base." Social Security limits the amount of earnings subject to taxation through FICA contribution". that way everyone earning income in the U.S.A. pays into Social Security from January 1 thorugh December 31. This will not only create a positive infusion of revenue into Social Security, eliminate any need to reduce benefits, or age, to receive benefits but will also create jobs in that more people will be willing to retire knowing that Social Security is safe

In Freeport, Ill. Sensata Technologies, a company owned by Bain Capital, is sending 170 workers’ jobs to China. To add insult to injury, Bain is even forcing the Freeport workers to train their Chinese replacements. A group of the workers have organized to garner support for the “Bring American Jobs Home Act”, a common sense bill that gives American workers an even playing field by replacing tax loopholes for companies that send jobs overseas with financial incentives to bring jobs back to America. On Tuesday, the workers caught up with Schilling but the Congressman refused to answer their simple yes or no question and then walked out of his own town hall meeting to avoid further questions. The video is here: http://bit.ly/SchillingWalksOut Bobby Schilling can run from meetings but he can’t hide from his record in Washington: Schilling supports: • Free Trade deals that ship jobs overseas • Tax break incentives for companies to leave the U.S. • Hiding the number of jobs companies send overseas • Cutting job retraining programs for workers whose jobs were lost overseas Rep. Schilling’s record in Washington shows he has chosen a rigid ideology over the public interest. The Congressman has the wrong priorities and has turned his back on Illinois workers. Join me in telling Bobby Schilling that he can run away but he can’t hide from his record in Washington.

President Obama, you will have my vote IF you will promise to reinstate the Fairness Doctrine in January 2013.

I went to a college that was not accredited, and not only did it ruin my credit but wasted my time. I could have been going to a real college to get a better job so I can pay back this loan.

On wednesday 26 September 2012 the Austin Peay State University (APSU) Office of Career Services will be hosting a Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) recruitment event on campus. The CIA has a history of recruiting students and professors to spy on other students and faculty, performing unethical mind control experiments on students (Project MKUltra), as well as a long list of repeated violations of human rights and international law. Activities such as these are unacceptable and will not be tolerated at APSU. We are calling on the campus administration to uphold the student code of conduct and not allow the CIA on our campus.

Frivolous claims of 30,000 dead voters on the rolls in North Carolina by a tea party group called the Voter Integrity Project. Considering the last election was won by just over 14,000 votes in North Carolina. The company claims to be a Non-partisan, Non-profit organization, but they are listed on the North Carolina Department of the Secretary of State website as a Business (BUS), and as a business, their tax returns are private. We may never know who's funding them.

The following petition was started by me after my grandson was taken from my home in Phoenix, AZ by CPS of Riverside County, California. In 2011 my daughter and son-in-law lived in California. They had an open case with CPS. I'm not sure why they had a case and they were not sure why they had a case. CPS opened the case because in 2010 they took my granddaughter from them when they got a phone call from a relative who had an ax to grind. So on the word of someone who didn't even live in the same state they went to my daughters house and took her little girl. My daughter was never accused of anything. My son-in-law tested positive for Marijuana and he went through their drug program month after month and tested clean every time he was called. They both did everything they were asked to do, however CPS and the so called family court forcibly adopted my granddaughter out. They actually sent her out of the state before the case was closed. When my grandson was born about 6 months later they were right there. They never took custody of him but they insisted on following my kids home so they could see if everything was suitable according to their standards and they opened a case. Once again my daughter and her husband had to go through the parenting classes and once again my son-in-law had to go for drug testing even though he tested clean every time, and once again they had to talk with counselors and advisors, and a whole long list of people who never raised a child in their life, etc. There case was supposed to be closed in May, however when they got into court the case worker asked the judge to leave it open because some member of their entourage had missed one appointment with my daughter and her husband. The reason she had missed the appointment was because she didn't show up. In fact this woman had told my daughter over the phone that it really wasn't that important. The truth was she had not shown up for most of their other appointments either but she had marked them in the records as completed. The Judge left the case open as he was told to do. In July my daughter and her husband became homeless after losing their jobs. It's very difficult to jump through the CPS hoops and still maintain your work schedule or do a job search. When my daughter called me about their situation I told her to get on the bus with her husband and the baby and come to my place in Arizona so they did. After looking for work locally and not having much luck they left the baby in my custody and went to another state to follow up on other possible opportunities. In the mean time I was taking care of my grandson (David). We were having a good time shopping for toys, some baby furniture and cloths. We were preparing to take a trip to Oregon in December and spend Christmas with David's Great Grandmother, Aunts, Uncles and Cousins. My other 2 grandsons were looking forward to meeting him and they had presents for him under the tree. We were scheduled to leave on Wednesday. On Monday the police showed up at my door along with a CPS case worker from California. They had an Order Of Protection warrant issued by a Federal Court Judge. I couldn't believe it. A CPS case worker in Riverside County, California had gone to a judge and was granted a bench warrant charging my daughter and her husband with kidnap and then she used that warrant to get a federal judge to grant the Order of Protection warrant. I thought that federal warrant was only for cases where a child was in danger. My daughter and her husband had never ever in their entire married life together been charged with or even accused of abuse of any kind what so ever. They were never abusive yet this woman who was able to do this to my grandson. I say to my grandson because he was taken from his family who loves him so very much and put into a home with strangers who take care of children for money. Now 8 months later we are still fighting to get him back. His Great Grandmother turned 97 in May. She might never get to see him. Every time I talk with her she asks about David. I don’t know what to tell her. What can you say about a system that has the power of Hitler’s SS Troops. They run the court. They rule the Judge. Hearings are closed to the public. Whatever the CPS case worker says is accepted without question, if they are investigated they do it themselves. When a child is David's age they forget quickly. By the time we do get him home with his family where he belongs he will have to go through the process of separation all over again. Children don't consciously remember much of what happens to them before the age of five, however it does effect their entire life. Not being able to remember is what can makes it so damaging. It is easier to deal with things you can remember. Taking a child from a loving family for no real good reason and placing them with strangers is abuse. Right now my grandson is being abused, by the County of Riverside, California by the state of California, by the Federal court system, and by The National Child Protection Act of 1993 a system that rewards the CPS agency for destroying American Families. I'm sure that was not what was intended by those who brought this act to fruition however that is what is happening. Since this horrible thing has come into our lives I have been searching the internet and news papers and I have found thousands of other American families who have suffered the same fate. Children removed from their home for some minor reason, held in captivity for a year or more, adopted out to strangers. You have to ask yourself why. What is in it for the agency. An agency that’s always complaining about their work load. The answer of course is Money. The abuse of American children is funding the payroll for a lot of employees who would otherwise be looking for a job.

Many Florida voters are been intimidated by making them they can not vote

Heather Wilson is a right-wing idealogue who supported the G W Bush agenda absolutely. She will not be good for New Mexico as our Senator.
