*****Reflection:McCain was denied his Presidential voucher from the NAACP that spokeloudly to protect public education. Obama is expected to get 94% ofthe black vote and a majopirty of the rest of us is just right forAmerica on all issues. Now even establish Republican are turning toObama.Why : Unjustified war and unconstitutional abridgment of individualrights vs. ill-conceived tax and economic policies - this is thedifference between venial and mortal sins.Taxes, economic policy andhealth care reform matter, preserve our individual rights whiledealing with real foreign threats - these are of greaterimportance.Even McCain is supportive of Obama McCain said:"He'sinspired a great many Americans, some of whom have wrongly believedthat a political campaign could hold no purpose or meaning for them.This success should make Americans, all Americans, proud. Of course,I would prefer his success not to continue quite as long as he hopes,but it does make you and me proud to know the country I've loved andserved all my life, still a work in progress and always improving.

DEMOCRATS ARGUE, KEEP PUBLIC EDUCATION ALIVE
Republicans have made vouchers a linchpin of their education overhaulinitiatives. Democrats have steadfastly refused, saying it would takevital dollars out of the public school system.[2]While McCain received some applause earlier Wednesday about hissupport of school vouchers, members of the labor union disagreed. [1]

NAACP IS OBAMA TURF, ANTI VOUCHER IS HIS ISSUEDavid Bositis, who studies black voting patterns at the Joint Centerfor Social and Economic Studies, says black support for Obama islikely to exceed even the 94% that President Lyndon Johnson receivedin 1964."I fully expect black turnout to be in record territory justabout everywhere," Bositis says.[3]

MANY SPOKE OUT TO SAY PUBLIC MONEY SHOULD GO TO PUBLIC EDUCATIONThe union, which has endorsed Senator Barack Obama, says allgovernment funding should go to simply public education, notvouchers. [1]Sen. Barack Obama says the GOP has talked and talked about vouchers,and it hasn't amounted to much more.[2]Obama's opposition is right along the lines of the National EducationAssociation, and the teachers union is a reliable and powerfulDemocratic ally. [2]

UNION BRASS OUTSPOKEN AGAINST MCCAINOne of the AFL-CIO's top leaders addressed the NAACP labor luncheon.[1]Executive Vice President Arlene Holt Baker was the keynote speaker.[1]She also happens to be the first African American to hold such a highposition in the union.[1]A major portion of Holt's speech was in reaction to McCain's addressto the convention. [1]

REPUBLICANS ARE TURNING TO OBAMAHUNTER ON OBAMA "I'm a lifelong Republican - a supply-sideconservative. I worked in the Reagan White House. I was the chiefeconomist at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce for five years. In 1994, Ihelped write the Republican Contract with America. I served on BobDole's presidential campaign team and was chief economist for JackKemp's Empower America.This November, I'm voting for Barack Obama."[5]When I first made this decision, many colleagues were shocked. Howcould I support a candidate with a domestic policy platform that'santithetical to almost everything I believe in? [5]

BUSH COMMITTED MORTAL SIN, MCCAIN WILL FOLLOWThe answer is simple: Unjustified war and unconstitutional abridgmentof individual rights vs. ill-conceived tax and economic policies -this is the difference between venial and mortal sins. [5]Taxes, economic policy and health care reform matter, of course. Buthow we extract ourselves from the bloody boondoggle in Iraq, how weavoid getting into a war with Iran and how we preserve our individualrights while dealing with real foreign threats - these are of greaterimportance. [5]

BUSH/ MCCAIN BETRAYED CONSERVATISM...NO JUST DO WHAT IS RIGHT..VOTEOBAMAJohn McCain would continue the Bush administration's commitment tointerventionism and constitutional overreach. Obama promises ahumbler engagement with our allies, while promising retaliationagainst any enemy who dares attack us. That's what conservatism usedto mean - and it's what George W. Bush promised as a candidate. [5]

MCCAIN TWO FACED, HE SPOKE FOR EDUCATION BUT VOTED AGAINST ITMcCain spoke of fixing "No Child Left Behind" regulations, but unionmembers say his record of voting down full funding for the programshows otherwise. [1]

SOME ARGUE CORRECTLY THE VOUCHER ISSUE IS CONFUSING AND COMPLICATEDThe fundamental problem with the voucher debate is that it is alwaysseen as an either/or proposition. For Republicans, it is the panaceato all the educational woes, and that is nonsensical. For Democrats,it is something that will destroy public education, and that too is abunch of crap.[2]

WE WILL BECOME A DIFFERENT COUNTRY WHEN OBAMA IS ELECTEDAnd Obama? That and more, Hayes says. In a USA TODAY/Gallup Polltaken June 5-July 6, nearly six in 10 blacks say Obama's electionwould be one of the two or three most important advances for blacksin the past 100 years; 48% of whites agree. [3]"For 100 years, this has been what the NAACP has fought for," Hayessays. "We've fought for the day when candidates could run for officeand be considered as viable candidates irrespective of their race."[3]

EVEN MCAIN SUPPORTIVE OF OBAMA"He's inspired a great many Americans, some of whom have wronglybelieved that a political campaign could hold no purpose or meaningfor them. This success should make Americans, all Americans, proud.Of course, I would prefer his success not to continue quite as longas he hopes, but it does make you and me proud to know the countryI've loved and served all my life, still a work in progress andalways improving.

GENERAL MOTORS, BANKRUPTCY AVOIDANCE?

Is General Motors Stalling Out?[1]Obama: Auto industry faces 'perfect storm'[6]

100TH BIRTHDAY SPENT IN AN INDUSTRIAL NURSING HOME-GM
GM, turning 100 this year, reported its largest annual loss in 2007, $38.7 billion, after a tax-accounting change, and hasn't posted a profit since 2004.[3]

WHAT WILL IT TAKE TO FIX GENERAL MOTORS
"I'm sickened by this," said John Lauve, 66, a retired GM manager from Holly, Mich., who has been an outspoken critic of the company's board of directors in recent years. "We can put a man on the moon but we can't fix GM."[2]

OBAMA RECOGNIZES THE PERIL OUR HEAVY INDUSTRIES ARE IN
Democratic Presidential hopeful Sen. Barack Obama said today that the job cuts at General Motors Corp. were "a sober reminder of the difficult economic times we're facing," and said the U.S. auto industry was facing a "perfect storm" of trouble.[6]

NO DIVIDEND/PROFIT TO GM OWNERS
General Motors, buffeted by a U.S. sales collapse and three years of losses, will suspend its dividend for the first time since 1922, cut the management payroll by 20 percent and sell assets to raise at least $15 billion in the next 18 months.[3]
GM did not say how many non-union jobs it would eliminate...[5]

About $10-billion of the $15-billion will be generated by the cost-cutting moves. Another $2-billion to $4-billion will come from asset sales. Tapping credit markets should add another $2-billion to $3-billion of financing.[4]

IS OUR COMPANY DYING, WHOSE COMPANY TOWN WILL WE BECOME?
It's hard to tell whether General Motors (NYSE: GM) has just stalled or is careering toward a wall.[1]

OBAMA MEETS WITH AUTO EXECUTIVE TO CREATE NEW POLICIES TO HELP THE AMERICAN AUTO INDUSTRY
Obama has reached out to auto industry executives in recent weeks, following a primary campaign where he frequently focused on the industry's opposition to tougher fuel economy rules. In his statement, Obama noted he had met with GM Chairman Rick Wagoner and Ford Chief Executive Alan Mulally to talk about the industry's concerns, and said the industry's success was crucial to the U.S. economy.[6]


GENERAL MOTORS, IS BANKRUPTCY AN OPTION? THERE IS TALK.
The spending reductions accelerate Chief Executive Officer Rick Wagoner's efforts to conserve cash and avert bankruptcy as a slowing economy and record gasoline prices push U.S. industry sales to a 15-year low.[3]

In addition to dreadful market conditions, GM also faces collapsing investor confidence amid whispers on Wall Street of a potential Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing, which has helped send the company's share price to below $10 for the first time since the 1950s.[4]

GM said it "anticipates it will report a significant second-quarter loss, driven in part by the previously disclosed negative impact of the American Axle and local union strikes in North America, as well as the continued weakness in the US car market and adverse vehicle segment mix".[5]

I WONDER IF WAGONER HAS A GOLDEN PARACHUTE
Whichever is occurring, the company, in a program that CEO Rick Wagoner calls "a plan to win," rather than simply to survive, is undertaking some draconian measures to try to fend off the automotive grim reaper. And it's all taking place against a backdrop of U.S. auto sales that have plummeted amid skyrocketing gasoline prices.[1]

Embattled General Motors Corp. will attack its looming liquidity crisis with another round of drastic cost cutting and a substantial gamble that the U.S. auto market will recover from its deep slump by 2010.[4]

Waning U.S. consumer confidence and a sharp rise in gasoline prices have sapped sales of GM's profitable pickup trucks and SUVs, contributing to a 16-per-cent sales decline through June. In making its latest plans, GM is assuming annual U.S. industry sales of 14 million units and oil prices ranging from $130 to $150 U.S. per barrel by 2009.[2]

GM..BUILD A SAFE, HIGH MILEAGE, ALTERNATE FUEL CAR WITH A GREAT RADIO!
With its fortunes in tatters, the company announced on Tuesday that it will cut its number of salaried workers, its production, and its dividend. It'll also borrow $2 billion to $3 billion as it tries to weather the downturn in the U.S. market. The ultimate objective is to raise about $15 billion, an amount it hopes will sop up losses and reverse the fortunes of its North American operations.[1]

SLICING THE WHITE COLLAR, THE BLUE COLLAR SOON TO BE DICED
General Motors Corp. is slicing into its white-collar ranks in both Canada and the United States and could shut down its Oshawa, Ont., pickup truck plant earlier than expected as it takes further steps to shore up cash in the worst North American vehicle market in a decade.[2]


MOST OF US THINK YOU COULD FIRE 80% OF THE SALARIED RANKS
The company will cut its truck production by 300,000 units, double the expectation of just a month ago. And it'll trim the ranks of its 40,000 salaried employees, mostly through initiatives. The objective there is to lop about 20% from salary costs in the U.S. and Canada.[1]

ATTENTION UNIONS THE SALARIED WORKERS ARE LOSING 80% OF THEIR HEALTHCARE!
In a wide series of moves aimed at bolstering liquidity by $15 billion U.S. over the next 18 months, GM said yesterday it would cut its salaried workforce in both countries by an unspecified number, freeze pay for remaining salaried employees until 2009, eliminate health-care coverage for U.S. salaried retirees over 65 and cut cash bonuses for executives. The company estimated the white-collar cuts will reduce cash costs by more than 20 per cent, or $1.5 billion U.S., in 2009. It has about 2,500 salaried workers in Canada.[2]

WHO IS BUILDING THE CARS THE EMERGING MIDDLE CLASS IN CHINA IS BUYING?
GM isn't, of course, the only car company that's making draconian changes in the face of a near-market crash in the U.S. Only Honda (NYSE: HMC) and Hyundai of the bigger carmakers reported that their sales grew last month, and for Honda, it was by only a single percentage point. Last week, Toyota (NYSE: TM), which is gaining steam on GM and Ford (NYSE: F) for global car sales supremacy, announced that it would shut down U.S. truck and SUV production and begin making its Prius hybrid here.[1]

SALARIED MIDDLE MANAGERS ARE AT FAULT, THEY SHOULD ALL BE FIRED
Sales of the Prius fell by 34% in June at precisely the time that buyers are looking for more efficient vehicles. The culprit? Toyota failed to keep up with demand for the vehicle, which gets about 46 miles to the gallon. So you have to wonder why the company is just now starting to turn out the model in our country.[1]

HUMMER ON THE BLOCKS
The Detroit-based automaker said it would also suspend its 25-cent quarterly stock dividend immediately, look at selling $2 billion to $4 billion worth of additional assets, including its Hummer brand, and tap capital markets for at least $2 billion.[2]

THE BEAN COUNTER HAVE WEIGHED, THE ENGINEERS ARE NEXT.
"What we saw today is the accountants' plan," industry consultant William Pochiluk, president of AutomotiveCompass LLC, said yesterday. "What we haven't seen yet is the product plan. What's missing is a very aggressive product plan."[4]

WILL GM EVER BECOME A SURE BET AGAIN?
As for GM, whether it's Bear Stearns, an IndyMac, or potentially other formerly strong U.S. institutions, we now seem to be living in a time when downward slides are awfully hard to reverse. So good luck to Wagoner and his minions. But Fools, there are lots better places for your shekels than the shares of automakers that suddenly seem unbelievably cheap.[1]

OBAMA: WE NEED NEW DIRECTION
"When a mainstay of the American economy is forced to make a restructuring decision like the one General Motors is announcing today, it is a sober reminder of the difficult economic times we're facing and of why we need change and a new direction in Washington," Obama said[6]

FLINT POLICE WILL ARREST YOUR BUTT...IF YOU SHOW IT!

Lay off saggy pants, ACLU warns Flint cops[1]

Gregory Gibbs, President of the ACLU Flint Branch says, "under no stretch of the imagination does wearing saggy pants that revel the top of one's boxer shorts violate the Flint Disorderly Conduct Ordinance. It is clear that the ordinance provision that is cited by the police chief requires that a person openly expose certain body parts to be guilty, Flint residents should embarrassed by this colossal waste of time and scarce resources."[3]

A crack in civil liberties found in Flint MI USA..Could there be any correlation in the rise in man hole cover robberies? [trb]

Flint residents who like to wear their pants in the latest sagging fashion shouldn't have to pull up their trousers to stay out of jail, according to the American Civil Liberties Union of Michigan.[1]
See:
http://www.mlive.com/flintjournal/index.ssf/2008/07/hundreds_of_manhole_covers_sto.html

You no longer have a right to dress poorly in Flint.[trb]

The right to wear sagging pants is protected by the U.S. Constitution, the state ACLU argued in a letter it sent Monday to acting Flint Police Chief David R. Dicks, who has ordered officers to start arresting people who wear saggy pants that expose Skivvies, boxer shorts or bare bottoms.[1]

Hey, young and want some attention, call the A.C.L.U. tell them you are fearful of being arrested for Crack![trb]

The letter called for an immediate end to the stopping and searching of individuals with low-riding pants and a response from the Police Department by July 21. If not, the ACLU said, it would be willing to represent in federal court any Flint resident who has been or has had a "legitimate fear" of being stopped, threatened or charged under the ordinance.[1]

On behalf of the men of Flint,Gibbs announces, we want some crack.[trb]

The Flint Police Department's practice of stopping individuals wearing saggy pants is unconstitutional and the practice should immediately be halted, the Flint branch president of the American Civil Liberties Union said Monday.[2]

"I think the police chief is abusing his power and violating a person's First and Fourth Amendment rights," said Gregory Gibbs, ACLU of Michigan Flint Branch president and cooperating attorney. [2]

Flint Police will get your butt, notice given to all butt heads.[trb]

The state ACLU said the new policy gives police authority to conduct unconstitutional searches and seizures, promotes racial profiling, violates due process and interferes with individuals' freedom to express themselves in their appearance.[1]

One old mans offensive is a kids...kool![trb]

This fashion may be offensive and annoying to some people, but as long as the youth wearing it are basically covered up, what’s being indecently exposed? And doing a stop-and-frisk based on what someone is wearing is a form of profiling. (As an aside, wouldn’t you think that if people in super-low baggies were actually engaged in nefarious activities, police would prefer it, since it has to be really hard to run in those things?) If police engaged in this practice with young girls who they thought were dressed like hookers, the shopping malls would be cleared out in no time. (And a lot of retailers would be really unhappy.)[4]

Is this ordinance just a ruse for an anal pat around, drug search?[trb]

"Given that Flint has one of the highest crime rates in the country, you would think the police chief would be fighting crime instead of the latest fashion fad," said Michael J. Steinberg, legal director of the state ACLU.[1]

Police Chief Dicks looking for a saggy pants showing a little butt has gone too far?[trb]

Gibbs said Dicks is taking his mandate too far. He accused the chief of stopping individuals and pulling up their shirts to see if their pants are hitting below the buttocks, a violation of the U.S. Constitution's Fourth Amendment, which protects citizens against unlawful search and seizure. [2]

"He doesn't have the authority to enforce his dress standards on the public," said Gibbs. [2]

This is a sagging commentary on th priorities of leadership.[trb]

Dicks did not return multiple calls Monday seeking comment, and Flint Mayor Donald J. Williamson said he had no comment on the sagging-pants policy.[1]

Show you butt in Flint and we will arrest it.[trb]

In an interview last week with the Free Press, Dicks said wearing pants below the waist is a crime -- a violation of the city's disorderly conduct ordinance -- and can give police probable cause to search saggers for other crimes, such as weapon or drug possession.[1]

Baggers will get complimentary jump suits for a re-socialization to get their heads right.[trb]

Individuals would be subject to searches and punishment of up to 93 days in jail and a $500 fine.[1]

Fat middle age white guys with bad comb overs are next.[trb]

"It is not the job of the police officer to enforce his idea of what dress is appropriate when no crime is being committed," Steinberg said.[1]

A.C.L.U. begs to not b e forced into court. Butt, they will if they must.[trb]

Steinberg said the ACLU would prefer not to go to court but was prepared to do so.[1]

Will all butts be treated equal, we demand it.[trb]

"People should be concerned when police officers go up to individuals and lift up their shirts to expose young men's boxer shorts and claim that they're acting indecent," Steinberg said, citing a Free Press video report last week on the enforcement. "There's nothing different between that and lifting up women's skirts to expose their underwear and charging them with indecent exposure."[1]

Faux Pas used in a sentence. This guy must not be from Flint.[trb]

He cited exposed bra straps or slips as comparable fashion faux pas that would not warrant police searches and citations.[1]

Just where does the butt begin?[trb]

"It's another matter if you can see their naked buttocks ... but it is not a crime to wear sagging pants where boxers are exposed."[1]

In a letter to Dicks, the ACLU states: "This practice is akin to lifting a woman's skirt in front of the camera to expose her underwear and then telling her she is indecently exposed. It must stop. It must stop." [2]
