CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Tammy Duckworth calls immigration reform foes ‘racists and fear-mongerers’ – Kim Geiger (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, Duckworth makes it clear that she is anti-Protestant, anti-conservative, anti-Republican, anti-American, anti-White, anti-male, anti-older people, anti-rich people, anti-gun owners, and/or anti-those whose ancestors have been in America longer than their ancestors. In 2006, she succeeded in having her disgusting thugs throw me out of her rally in Wheaton with Michael J. Fox that was open to the news media.)
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/politics/ct-duckworth-durbin-gutierrez-immigration-met-0920-20160919-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Senate-seeking U.S. Rep. Tammy Duckworth appeared with fellow Democrats on Monday to advocate for long-sought changes to immigration laws, casting the November election as crucial to the cause while blasting opponents as “bigots and racists and fear-mongerers.” . . . Despite a recent firestorm over Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton’s “basket of deplorables” comment, in which she labeled Trump supporters “racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic,” both Gutierrez and Duckworth employed similar language as they tried to gin up support for the Democratic ticket.)

SPRINGFIELD STATE JOURNAL REGISTER
— Rauner wants state jobs review, just not federal court’s – AP (DIERSEN: Are/were you a patronage hire? I was not. GAO hired me in 1980 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, younger person, or veteran who would take the job. IRS hired me in 1971 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job. The Post Office hired me in 1966 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job.)
http://www.sj-r.com/news/20160919/rauner-wants-state-jobs-review-just-not-federal-courts
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Gov. Bruce Rauner pledged Monday to continue rooting out improper patronage hiring at the same time his lawyers were attempting to block a federal court monitor’s expanded review of all state administration jobs. The Republican again trumpeted getting rid of the clout-packed “staff assistant” position at the Illinois Department of Transportation – the remaining 29 were fired last week – as a “small step in the right direction.” Yet, Rauner says a review of all state positions by a special master – appointed in 2014 to investigate the scandal, in which the staff assistant posts were improperly handed out as political favors – is premature, too costly and duplicative of the work it wants the Office of the Executive Inspector General to do. “We want to expand the work of the executive inspector general, continuing to look in every department for positions that should not be in existence and for the existence of people who were hired … for patronage or political reasons, not to provide high-quality government services,” he said. In a motion filed in U.S. District Court in Chicago, Rauner’s administration argues that the state has already paid $800,000 to the special master; expanding her workload would come at a much steeper cost. It also outlines a newly created Hiring and Employment Monitoring unit under the executive inspector general. Nonetheless, he told reporters Monday he has proposed a $600,000 expansion of that office. It hasn’t made headway because of the budget deadlock with Democrats who control the Legislature.)

— Emmy winner compares ‘monster’ Trump to Hitler Jill Soloway: Trump is “other-izing people” – CNN (DIERSEN: Soon, if not already, Clinton supporters will call everyone Hitler who does not worship Clinton.)
http://www.centralillinoisproud.com/entertainment/emmy-winner-compares-monster-trump-to-hitler
(FROM THE ARTICLE: One of the big winners at the Emmys on Sunday night delivered some of the harshest criticism of Donald Trump offstage — comparing the Republican presidential nominee to Adolf Hitler and warning against what she said were efforts to “otherize” groups of people. Jill Soloway, creator of Amazon’s “Transparent” and winner in the comedy series directing category, spoke to “Variety” backstage during the awards show, where she lit into Trump. “Jews were other-ized in Nazi Germany to gain political power for Hitler, and right now Donald Trump is doing the same thing. He’s other-izing people. He calls women pigs if they don’t look like beauty pageant contestants. He blames Muslims and Mexicans for our problems. He makes fun of disabled people. This is other-izing with a capital ‘O,'” Soloway said. She continued, “It has been used in our history before to start and win wars. He needs to be called out at every chance he gets for being one of the most dangerous monsters to ever approach our lifetimes. He’s a complete dangerous monster, and at any moment that I have to call out Trump for being an inheritor to Hitler, I will.” CNN has reached out to Trump campaign for comment and not yet received a response. With the criticism, Soloway delivered one of the sharpest Trump condemnations at the awards show — but she was far from alone, as the program featured a series of actors, directors and producers who slammed the GOP nominee. “Transparent” lead actor Jeffrey Tambor, another winner who was backstage during the exchange, said he agreed, according to Variety. And he reportedly quoted the poet W.H. Auden, saying “Love one another or die.” David Mandel — the showrunner of HBO’s “Veep,” which also won multiple awards, and who was also present backstage — joked that his show, which satirizes politics, couldn’t keep up with Trump. “There are days when things we think of pale in comparison to that madman threatening Hillary Clinton, not once but twice,” Mandel said, according to “Variety.” “If I wrote that, I’d get fired by HBO. I find the level of discourse in this campaign horrific.” He added, “A lot of people don’t want to laugh about this stuff.”)

— DISGUSTING: MCDONALDS REPLACES 70 AMERICANS WITH FOREIGN H-1B WORKERS (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, under the Democrats and under the RINOs, employers shout that they are anti-American.)
https://www.numbersusa.com/news/mcdonalds-replaces-70-americans-foreign-workers
(FROM THE ARTICLE: McDonalds has joined the growing national trend of outsourcing American jobs to cheaper, foreign workers. The McDonalds in Ohio fired 70 American accountants and replaced them foreign, H-1B workers. McDonald’s spokeswoman, Terri Hickey, admitted that this was a cost savings effort saying, “To deliver $500 million in savings, the vast majority by the end of 2017, we are restructuring many aspects of our business, including an accounting function.” While the tech industry has been hit the hardest by outsourcing jobs to foreign labor this move by McDonalds shows that more American companies are trying to outsource a variety of jobs. Companies such as Disney and Abbot Laboratories to used visas, like the H-1B visa, to import cheaper labor instead of hiring American workers. In some cases, the employees were forced to train their replacements in order to receive their severance pay. Steve Camarota, Director of Research at the Center for Immigration Studies, says that this shows that white-collar outsourcing, “is not just a Silicon Valley thing anymore, it is happening all over”. A 2011 study by the U.S. Government Accountability Office exposed how the H-1B visa was being exploited and showed that there was very little oversight of the program. According to the report the government doesn’t even know how many workers are actually in the U.S. on H-1B visas at any given time.)

ROCKFORD REGISTER STAR
— So, how do you like video gambling now? – Anita Bedell, Executive Director, Illinois Church Action on Alcohol and Addiction Problems
http://www.rrstar.com/opinion/20160918/my-view-so-how-do-you-like-gambling-slots-now
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Video gambling has spread rapidly in just four years, with nearly 24,000 gambling machines now operating in more than 5,500 establishments. Rockford-area residents are losing more than $2 million a month in video gambling machines. Winnebago County ranks third in the state for the number of video gambling machines with 1,050 — more machines than five of Illinois’ casinos. The amount of money lost in the machines is staggering. Rockford ranks second in the state with losses of $77.5 million, and Loves Park is fourth with losses of $41 million. The total amount lost in video gambling machines in all of Winnebago County is almost $175 million. While municipalities get a nickel of every dollar lost in gambling machines, up to 60 percent of the money leaves the community. While legislators said they wanted to legalize the gambling machines that were already operating in many bars, clubs and restaurants, local officials issued many new liquor licenses, which qualified for video gambling. Video gambling parlors have expanded quickly throughout the state, and these neighborhood casinos have some of the largest monthly gambling losses. Located in strip malls near residential areas and grocery stores, these video gambling parlors are named after and target women. Coffee, soft drinks and snacks are free at some parlors, and coupons for free play abound. Video gambling machines are operating in bowling alleys, golf courses, laundromats, grocery stores, gas station convenience stores, wine and package liquor stores, a tobacco store, television repair shop, flower shop, pool supply shop, indoor amusement park and family fun center. A study of frequent video gambling players showed that the risk of frequent players reporting symptoms of problem and pathological gambling was elevated if they gambled weekly, spent $50 or more per session or played for more than an hour per session. The study, published in the Journal of Gambling Studies, found that video gambling was the most harmful form of gambling in Canada. People will gamble at casinos closest to home. Local residents who are “regulars” can gamble several times a day at one or more neighborhood casinos. When people gamble away all of their money, they borrow, steal and embezzle to keep gambling. It takes time for the problems of gambling to develop and come to light — addiction, lost work time, bankruptcy, child neglect, domestic violence, crime, embezzlement and suicide. One dad left his 3-year old son in the car while he gambled in a bar near a busy intersection at 11 p.m. He allegedly went inside to order food and played video gambling while he waited. A Tazewell County grand jury indicted a former employee of a residential facility accused of taking money from a disabled person to gamble. She also took two residents to a video gambling parlor. Burglaries of video gambling machines and ATM machines have occurred throughout the state, and video gambling establishments have been cited for underage alcohol sales. These are just a few of the crimes that have been documented during the past four years. Three casino companies have bought all or part ownership in video gambling companies that supply machines to local establishments. Why? Video gambling has fewer regulations, less oversight, lower taxes and operating costs and is an easier way to expand. Rockford Urban Ministries has invited me to speak at the Unitarian Universalist Church in Rockford at 7 p.m. Thursday. Come and learn more.)

— Clinton condemns ‘apparent terrorist attacks’
http://www.starcourier.com/news/20160918/latest-clinton-condemns-apparent-terrorist-attacks
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Hillary Clinton’s vice presidential running mate has split with her over Clinton’s description of some Donald Trump supporters as “irredeemable.” Tim Kaine said on ABC’s “This Week” on Sunday that irredeemable “is not a word I would use.” But he suggested that it’s not likely the Democrats would be able to change the minds of hardcore Trump supporters on such issues as where President Barack Obama was born. Kaine says Clinton was right to call out “dark emotions.” Clinton earlier this month said she considers “half” of Trump’s supporters to be “deplorables” who are “irredeemable.” She later apologized for saying “half” and acknowledged that many of his supporters are hardworking, but disillusioned.)

http://www.chicagobusiness.com/article/20160918/NEWS02/160919857/what-keeps-illinois-democrats-awake-at-night
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Republicans have been saying behind the scenes that they have put four Democratic state Senators “on the bubble”—Tom Cullerton in DuPage County, Melinda Bush in Lake County, Jennifer Bertino-Tarrant in Will County and Gary Forby in deep southern Illinois. Understandably, Senate President John Cullerton does not agree. “If it wasn’t for Donald Trump maybe four would be on the bubble,” Cullerton told me the other day. Cullerton claimed that the one-two punch of Trump and Gov. Bruce Rauner was hurting Republicans in contested districts everywhere. “Downstate, Trump’s popular,” he admitted, “But Rauner’s not.” In Sen. Forby’s heavily targeted district, Cullerton said, “Rauner’s hated down there.”)

HERALD REVIEW
— Lottery lights way on Rauner’s merit pay proposal – DAN PETRELLA (DIERSEN: Measuring job performance is extremely subjective. My Democrat GAO superiors in the federal government used that subjectivity to favor their employees who were Democrat, minority, female, and/or younger, that is, they used that subjectivity to discriminate against their employees who were Republican, White, male, and/or older. My superiors in the federal government were always under pressure from Democrat politicians to favor their employees who were Democrat, minority, female, and/or younger. Charles Bowsher, who ran GAO 1981-1996, would say that his pay-for-performance system helped him get rid of the agency’s employees who were Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: But AFSCME spokesman Anders Lindall said that characterization misrepresents much of the work that state employees do. While performance might be easily measurable for some workers, such as “an exceedingly small number of employees” at the Lottery, that’s not the case across the board, Lindall said. “How would one fairly and accurately quantify the performance of a child protection investigator or a nurse assistant in a veterans home or a caregiver for someone with disabilities?” he said. “We’re skeptical that can be done.” Another problem is that the Rauner administration has failed to provide the union with adequate information about its pay proposals, Lindall said, which is one of the reasons the administrative law judge gave for recommending that contract talks resume. Lindall also noted that the Lottery program offers bonuses on top of any contractually guaranteed raises, whereas the administration’s proposals at the bargaining table have called for a wage freeze to accompany merit pay programs. “We think that if there is money to raise wages, then that should be distributed fairly across the whole workforce,” he said.)

— Evanston Township High School Class of 1966’ 50th Reunion: You CAN Go Home Again – Miles J. Zaremski (DIERSEN: Crete-Monee High School Class of 1966 held its outstanding 50th reunion yesterday evening at the Lincolnshire Country Club in Crete. Of the 200 graduates, 100 responded to the event questionnaire, 67 attended one or more of three weekend events, and 31 spouses/guests attended one or more of the events. Sadly, 48 of the 200 have passed away. I was one of the few who had attended all three of the previous reunions – the 25th in Beecher, the 20th in Matteson, and the 10th in Homewood. One of my classmates, Dennis Peters from Morris, ran for state representative in 1998.)
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/miles-j-zaremski/eths-class-of-1966-50th-r_b_11977976.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Not so for the 50th high school reunion of the Class of 1966 from Evanston Township High School (ETHS) in Evanston, Illinois held the weekend of September 9-10, 2016. This writer happens to be one of those graduates. This reunion for a class of a little over 900 graduates drew nearly a third, or about 300 attendees, to the main affair on Saturday night the 10th. It was quite a high-water mark, though preceded that day by a tour of the high school followed by a luncheon. The night before was an informal get-together at a locally, well-known restaurant that well outdrew the anticipated attendance.)

— Trump, Ivanka heading to town for fundraisers – Michell Sneed (DIERSEN: Far too often, political news of interest to Illinois Republicans is a) first given to the Democrat news media, b) then reported by the Democrat news media, c) then included in a GOPUSA ILLINOIS email, and d) then read by Illinois Republicans.)
http://chicago.suntimes.com/politics/sneed-trump-ivanka-coming-to-town-for-fundraisers/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Ivanka Trump is on the way. The Donald isn’t . . . yet. “It’s hush, but father and daughter are coming at the end of the month,” a top Republican source said. “They aren’t on the campaign trail. No press. It’s private fundraisers,” the source added. “Trump’s poll numbers are soaring and he’s got to focus on the swing states — and Illinois is so blue it’s almost frozen,” the source said. Sneed hears Ivanka, one of her father’s top advisers, has scheduled three fundraisers at the end of September. Two downstate. One in Chicago. “There is huge interest now. People sense now is the time to get on board,” the source said. With his numbers rising in the polls, Trump abruptly canceled his Bolingbrook luncheon appearance Monday to hit Florida. “I get it,” said Bolingbrook Mayor Roger Claar, a huge Trump supporter who has already postponed the Trumpster’s luncheon twice: now reset for Sept. 28. “He needs to put his attention on the swing states. But I’ll tell you what,” said Claar. “Tickets for the luncheon are selling. Originally set for only 100 people, now 300-350 are anticipated. “People who couldn’t make time on their calendars before now have calendars dates available. It’s great. People who were expecting to come and now can’t are really disappointed.” Sneed hears rumbles DuPage County Board Chairman Dan Cronin may be attending. Psst, word is Trump’s jet will fly into Chicago. Does that mean he will drive from the city to Bolingbrook? Stay tuned.)

— BEYOND TRAGIC: Video gambling spending, losses on rise – Mike Nolan (DIERSEN: Video gambling is a vice. Individuals, organizations, companies, governments, and countries that promote video gambling promote vice. Questions to ask video gamblers include a) how much time do you spend video gambling per day, per week, per month, and per year, b) how much money do you typically lose per day, per week, per month, and per year, c) can you afford the lose the time and money that you do gambling, d) where does the money come from that you gamble away, and e) how much have you saved for your retirement?)
http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/daily-southtown/news/ct-sta-video-gambling-side1-st-0918-2-20160916-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: What is being spent at video gambling machines, and what is being lost, grew during the first eight months of this year compared with the same period last year, according to figures compiled by the state gaming board. Some of the increase is due to more establishments offering gambling now compared with a year ago. Here is a breakdown for selected communities in the south and southwest suburbs showing amounts spent at the machines for the period of January through August of this year and a comparison to the same eight-month period in 2015: In Alsip, $11.1 million was spent this year through August, and $3 million lost, compared with $7.8 million spent during the first eight months of last year and losses of $2.1 million. At Bridgeview gambling terminals, $8.2 million was spent during the first eight months of this year, and $2.1 million lost, compared with spending of $6.7 million a year earlier and losses of $1.8 million. Chicago Ridge video gambling spending totaled $12.1 million through August of this year, with losses to gamblers of $3.2 million, compared with the same period in 2015 when $11.7 million was spent and $3.1 million lost. In Crestwood, $14.5 million was spent in the first eight months of this year, with losses of $3.7 million, compared with a year earlier when $11.4 million was spent at gambling machines and losses totaled $3 million. At establishments in Homer Glen, $6.3 million was spent on video gambling through August of this year, with losses of $1.7 million, compared with $4.7 million spent last year and losses of $1.3 million. Lemont video gambling spending was $8.3 million during the first eight months of this year, with losses of $2 million, while spending for the same period last year was $5.6 million and losses totaled $1.4 million. In Midlothian, $9 million was spent during the first eight months of this year, with losses of $2.3 million, compared with $7.3 million spent for the same period in 2015 and losses totaling $2 million. At video gambling terminals in Mokena, $10.7 million was spent through August of this year, with losses of $2.8 million, compared with spending of $8.7 million for the same period of last year and losses totaling $2.2 million. In Oak Forest, video gambling spending totaled $13.3 million during the first eight months of this year, with losses of $3.4 million, compared with $12.3 million spent during the same period last year and losses of $3.2 million. At establishments in Oak Lawn, spending on video gambling totaled $27.1 million through August of this year, with losses of $7.1 million, compared with spending during the same period last year of $22.1 million and losses of $6 million. In Tinley Park, spending on video gambling totaled $10.6 million through the first eight months of this year, with losses of $2.9 million, compared with $8.1 million spent during the same period a year earlier and losses of $2.2 million.)

http://www.nwitimes.com/news/local/rauner-administration-lottery-program-shows-merit-pay-works/article_bbf0c3e0-4fbe-57e5-a81e-b6d7385393ea.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The state has paid more than $631,000 in bonuses over the past two years to dozens of Illinois Lottery employees for meeting sales targets and other goals. Introducing programs like this, which reward workers financially based on certain measures of job performance, throughout state government has been a priority for Gov. Bruce Rauner’s administration in stalled contract talks with a union representing 38,000 state workers. The administration wants to do away with guaranteed annual raises in favor what it calls “merit pay,” but the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees Council 31 has opposed those proposals because, among other reasons, it sees opportunities for favoritism. Wages are one of the major sticking points in the negotiations, which were halted in January when the Rauner administration moved to have an impasse declared. An administrative law judge recommended earlier this month that the Illinois Labor Relations Board order the administration and AFSCME back to the bargaining table. The Rauner administration says the Lottery program, which was introduced in 2011 under the administration of then-Gov. Pat Quinn, is evidence that merit pay works.)

In her new book, “My (Underground) American Dream: My True Story as an Undocumented Immigrant Who Became a Wall Street Executive,” Arce, 33, recounts the story of how she challenged the stereotype of the undocumented immigrant by graduating from the University of Texas with honors, immediately securing a job at Goldman Sachs and eventually becoming an executive at Merrill Lynch. “Since the age of 14, I had learned to live an alternate reality, an imagined reality in which my immigration status didn’t matter,” writes Arce in the prologue of her memoir, which was released Sept. 13.)

Ever-increasingly, the more that you promote LGBTQ activity, the more that Democrats and RINOs glorify you and praise you as being talented.)
http://www.advocate.com/business/2016/9/15/peter-thiel-talented-folks-only-go-nyc-silicon-valley-certainly-not-chicago
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The gay tech billionaire and Donald Trump supporter offended many a Windy City resident this week. Gay technology billionaire Peter Thiel gave a speech in Chicago this week and managed to insult the entire city — and, well, pretty much the whole nation, except for a couple of enclaves. “If you are a very talented person, you have a choice: You either go to New York or you go to Silicon Valley,” Thiel, the founder of PayPal, told an audience at Chicago’s Roosevelt University Tuesday, the Chicago Tribune reports. Stuart Warner, the Roosevelt professor who moderated Thiel’s talk, didn’t challenge him on that — or on his support for Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump or his funding of a lawsuit by Hulk Hogan that forced Gawker Media into bankruptcy, the Tribune notes. But an audience member did afterward, asking, “Who comes to Chicago if first-rate people go to New York or Silicon Valley?” Thiel stammered and said, “I didn’t, I didn’t, I didn’t say that!” according to the Tribune. He then explained that he was using New York and Silicon Valley only metaphorically, as “extreme” examples, and didn’t intend to insult Chicagoans. That didn’t placate the local media. Thiel “deigned to make a flying visit to our cow town to share a few pearls of wisdom” and did so “tactlessly,” Kim Janssen wrote in the Tribune. A Chicagoist contributor called him a “cartoon villain.” In July, Thiel addressed the Republican National Convention, one of the few out gay men ever to do so. He voiced enthusiastic support for Trump while saying he didn’t “pretend to agree with every plank in our party’s platform,” which the gay GOP group Log Cabin Republicans called the most anti-LGBT in the party’s history, with its continued opposition to marriage equality and thinly veiled endorsement of “ex-gay” therapy. “But fake culture wars only distract us from our economic decline, and nobody in this race is being honest about it except Donald Trump,” Thiel added in his convention speech. Thiel’s funding of former pro wrestler Hogan’s invasion of privacy suit against Gawker Media has led some pundits to worry if freedom of the press becomes meaningless when a wealthy individual can bring down a journalism organization. It’s been reported that Thiel was angry with Gawker Media founder Nick Denton, also a gay man, because Thiel was outed on one of the company’s sites. But Denton recently said Thiel was more angry because of articles that mocked his political ideology and business strategies.)

It is called Affirmative Action, Diversity, and Inclusion.)
http://www.chicagotribune.com/business/ct-illinois-chicago-census-0915-biz-20160914-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Chicago metro area had nearly 52,000 fewer people living in poverty in 2015 than it did the year before, following national trends as its poverty rate dropped and household incomes rose — though the economic improvements locally were not as vigorous as national averages. The poverty rate fell to 13.3 percent last year from 13.9 percent in the Chicago-Naperville-Elgin metro area, which was among 16 of the 25 most populous metro areas to see a significant drop in poverty rates, according to American Community Survey data scheduled for Thursday release by the U.S. Census Bureau. The other large metro areas saw no change in poverty rates; none had an increase. Median household income, adjusted for inflation, rose by 2.4 percent in the Chicago metro area between 2014 and 2015, to $63,135. That growth was more tepid than the national average, which saw median household income rise 3.8 percent, to $55,775. Median incomes increased in 21 of the 25 most populous metro areas. None showed a decrease. Nationally, the poverty rate declined to 14.7 percent in 2015 from 15.5 percent the year before, according to the American Community Survey, marking the first time since the survey launched in 2005 that poverty has declined significantly two years in a row.)

http://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/tim-graham/2016/09/13/bozell-graham-column-cnns-deplorable-smear-pence
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The CNN screen graphic at 6 pm on September 12 was blunt: “PENCE REFUSES TO CALL DAVID DUKE ‘DEPLORABLE.’” Mike Pence had granted Wolf Blitzer a 30-minute interview, and what he received in return was a reckless leftist smear. Let’s be clear about this interview. Blitzer offered 39 hostile questions or interjections about Trump’s tax returns, medical records, charities, and offensive remarks before asking a single question about policy. In the middle of this contentious exchange, Blitzer arrived at Hillary Clinton’s gaffe calling Trump backers a “basket of deplorables.” Blitzer obnoxiously underlined that some Trump backers were truly deplorable: “David Duke, for example, some other white nationalists, who would fit into that category of deplorables. Right?” Pence protested, “I’m not really sure why the media keeps dropping David Duke’s name. Donald Trump has denounced David Duke repeatedly. We don’t want his support, and we don’t want the support of people who think like him.” Blitzer pushed back: “Would you call him a deplorable? You would call him that?” Pence replied: “I’m not in the name-calling business, Wolf.” CNN ignored that denouncement of Duke and his backers. It was spiked in favor of a cheap National Enquirer-style “Pence Won’t Deplore Duke” headline. It’s the kind of gotcha journalism that has the public disgusted with the press.)

He fought type 1 diabetes from age 14. He was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma. He never attended college. He did not buy a new car until he was 45 years old in 1967 and it was a bottom of the line 2-door Chevy with almost no options.)

BOSTON HERALD
— Some Quick, easy steps to tell if you’re a deplorable – Howie Carr
http://www.bostonherald.com/news/columnists/howie_carr/2016/09/carr_some_quick_easy_steps_to_tell_if_you_re_a_deplorable
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In case you’ve been wondering which side you’re on, you may be a deplorable if you stand for the National Anthem. Or if you know all the words to the Pledge of Allegiance, especially, “under God.” Or if when you go to Market Basket, you tend to buy generic products, because you’re using your own money, not an EBT card. You may be a deplorable if you just got your car inspected. If you’re deployable, you’re definitely deplorable. If you wake before noon, if you call Islamic terrorists Islamic terrorists, if you don’t have an Obamaphone and you don’t believe that global warming is “settled science” — can you say deplorable? You may be deplorable if your passport, driver’s license and credit cards are all in the same name. Saying Merry Christmas — Deplorable with a capital D! You may be a deplorable if you wouldn’t mind showing some ID at the local precinct before you vote. You are most assuredly a deplorable if you have more than one job. You may be a deplorable if you’ve never used Western Union to wire welfare cash south of the border. You may be a deplorable if all of your children have the same last name — and it’s your last name. Or if while watching the second Monday night NFL game you were less irritated by the streaker than you were by all the fawning coverage of Colin Kaepernick on the pre-game show. You may be a deplorable if you resent training your H1-B replacement. Or the fact that the Earned Income Tax Credit is NOT earned. Nothing says deplorable like the National Rifle Association. If you liked your doctor and wanted to keep your doctor, if you wear pants rather than pajamas when you leave the house, if you were passed over for the job even though you got a 95 on the civil-service test — you know what you are. You may be a deplorable if you don’t think you should have to press one for English. If you lost your security clearance and your job for mishandling classified information, you are deplorable. You may be a deplorable if you identify as a member of the gender in which you were born. Or if you drained your 401(k) or took out a second mortgage on your house to pay for your kid’s tuition at UMass while the illegal alien down the hall goes on the arm. Or if you believe that good fences make good neighbors. You’re most definitely a deplorable if you have an American flag flying in your front yard. Or if you’ve never windsurfed with John Kerry on Nantucket, or stood in line with Sen. Warren at your local “cheese shop.” You are a deplorable if you believe All Lives Matter. If you’ve never needed a “safe space,” or heeded a “trigger warning” — deplorable. If you’ve gone to the www.howiecarrshow.com store and ordered a “Proud to be Deplorable” T-shirt — yes, you know very well what you are.)

On September 16, 1996, I presented oral arguments to Chief Judge Posner and Circuit Court Judges Coffey and Kanne. On March 31, 1997, the Appellate Court ruled that DOT’s exemption for old cars was invalid.)

— Immigration Windfall: Another $10M for Voter Registration – Tom Fitton
http://www.newsmax.com/TomFitton/immigration-voter-registration-judicial-watch/2016/09/12/id/747819/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Months after the Obama administration spent $19 million to register new immigrant voters that will likely support Democrats in November, it’s dedicating an additional $10 million in a final push as the presidential election approaches. The money is distributed by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), the Homeland Security agency that oversees lawful immigration, to organizations that help enhance pathways to naturalization by offering immigrants free citizenship instruction, English, U.S. history, and civics courses. Officially, they’re known as “citizenship integration grants.” Since 2009 USCIS has doled out $63 million in these grants to prepare more than 156,000 resident immigrants in dozens of states for U.S. citizenship, according to the agency’s figures. Besides the free classes, Uncle Sam also offers immigrants free “naturalization legal services,” the latest USCIS grant announcement states. “Recipient organizations serve both traditional immigrant destinations and new immigrant getaway cities in 21 states,” the USCIS document reads. The latest $10 million investment will prepare approximately 25,000 residents from more than 50 countries, according to the agency. More than a dozen states — including California, New York, Florida, Washington, and Ohio — with large resident immigrant populations are being targeted as well as cities with huge immigrant populations such as Miami, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco, and Washington D.C.)

My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes despise if not hate working class Americans like I was 1964-1997. They stress the adverse actions a) that my Democrat GAO superiors took against me including forcing me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, not promoting me beyond GS-13, keeping me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forcing me to take an $18,459 pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980, b) that my Democrat IRS superiors took against me including not promoting me beyond GS-12, disallowing my education deductions, and disallowing my partial day per diem claims, and c) that my Democrat Post Office superiors took against me including forcing me resign in 1969 and disallowing my sick leave requests.)

— That Scandal on Your Résumé Will Cost You—Even if It Isn’t Yours If you’re coming from a tainted company, you may get dinged on pay. Here’s how to minimize the damage. – Suzanne Woolley (DIERSEN: What do potential employers think of the employers that you do/did work for? From what I see, virtually all employers despise if not hate my former employer, the federal government. From what I see, the longer that you worked for the federal government, the more that potential employers despise if not hate you. I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years – almost 3 for the Post Office 1966-1969, almost 9 for IRS 1971-1980, and almost 18 for GAO 1980-1997.)
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-09-13/that-scandal-on-your-r-sum-will-cost-you-even-if-it-isn-t-yours
(FROM THE ARTICLE: You could get dinged on compensation, or even knocked out of contention for a job, by a corporate scandal you had nothing to do with. The Enrons and Worldcoms and Wells Fargos hurt the careers of innocent bystanders. It’s a nasty and persistent reputational ripple effect that can be incredibly hard, and sometimes impossible, to counteract. Wells Fargo & Co., where bank employees tried to meet quotas and earn bonuses by opening sham accounts for customers without their knowledge, is the scandal of the hour. And it is executives in financial services firms that suffer the most from guilt by association, an article in the September Harvard Business Review suggests. Initial compensation at these executives’ next job is about 10 percent lower than for that their untainted counterparts, the authors found. Across industries, job functions, levels of seniority, and regions, executives with such companies on their résumés took a cut of 4 percent in total compensation. Women were dinged 7 percent to men’s 3 percent.)
