Re: “The welfare state — Arkansas votes against its interest”
Gyl, have you seen the Paul Ryan budget? You should and then delete your comment.
Re: “The welfare state — Arkansas votes against its interest”
SalineRepublican, is it fair that a state receives more money than it puts in to the federal government? Are you ready to disclaim excess funds? So are you saying that the poor are enslaved by the foodbanks, soup kitchens, and charitable organizations as well?
Re: “Burris gets crosswise with law officers on budget cuts”
What is Burris' salary (don't forget to add his per diem and mileage and rate he gets if he is live-tweeting or whatever Mark Martin said to explain away his $70,000/year)?
Also, why is ANY elected office below state legislator affiliated with a political party? Is a D going to respond to a 911 call differently than an R?
Re: “Correction re Hillary and World Bank”
Sherlock, so because Steve Jobs/Bill Gates had no experience running companies before they did those jobs for Apple and Microsoft, that must be why those companies were such utter failures.
If you're trying to say Hillary Clinton is stupid or inept, I think you're going to have to bring in a LOT more proof than your hurt feelings.
Nice try, though.
Re: “Obama administration orders coverage of birth control pills”
Keep this in mind in 18 years when a previously unwanted child isn't [put in jail, given a rubber-stamp diploma from an overburdened school system, put on public assistance because they can't find opportunities, etc.].
Your short-term thinking is why conservatives are running this state and country into the ground. But, hey, if doing what is politically expedient in the short run makes you feel good, do it. Right, gyllie?
Re: “Another pay freeze for state employees”
"The government is not and should not be in the business to employ people , it should rather be maintaining a scenario to encourage business to employ people."
The problem with extremist conservative rhetoric is that it takes truisms and tries to make them seem like there is an another side arguing with them. Who exactly is arguing that the business of the government is to employ people? Unfortunately, Tea Boy, I think it's one of the voices in your head that you are yelling at. One of the purposes of the government is to serve the citizens and make sure things don't fall into anarchy as Libertarians would have it.
PS- stop using 2 dollar words. It makes you seem like you're trying too hard.

Re: “Arkansas Business publishes concealed carry list”
Teabaggers/Saline/jtsims/clay pigeon,
PLEASE DON'T STOP POSTING!! I love love love the lack of grammar crazy logic. More, please!
Saline, welllllll... you've got a poster. Case closed, I guess. Good work.
So your AR-15 and high-capacity mag is going to stand up to the USMC APC/tank you think is going to come and quash the will of the people? Sounds legit to me. Good luck with that. So, you're the same folks who oppose campaign finance reform and support corporate personhood, right?
It's insulting is that you'd think the US Armed Forces would attack its own people. Shame on you for hating/mistrusting our police and military.
