Great video from the state of Washington.

Zero coverage for the event yesterday beyond a couple pics in the C-L while Lange and his ever-lovin' "intern" didn't bother at all. Lange must have been worried that he would have received an ass whuppin' if he showed up.

CL, WAPT, WLBT, WJTV, and JFP were there.

Of course, what the Tea Party should be doing is uploading these events to Youtube and say screw the media.

Yeah but the coverage wasn't reflective while the C-L was next to non-existent. The trend is obvious. Who exactly reads the JFP?

More trouble brewing for Barry-O.

Federal funding for Section 8, the nation's largest rental assistance program, could dry up for some housing authorities before year's end. The shortfall is forcing some low-income families to pay higher rents — and putting others in jeopardy of losing their vouchers altogether.

As for the hundreds of thousands currently on multiyear waiting lists nationwide, the wait is now even longer.

...

Someone at the back of that line faces "an indefinite wait," Dunfey says. "It means we don't know when, if ever, we are going to be able to assist you."

Manchester's lengthy waiting list isn't unusual; just take a look at these numbers from some housing authorities:

* In Houston, 19,000 people are on a waiting list that could take up to three years.
* In Washington, D.C., there's an eight-year wait, with 28,000 families in line.
* The number of people on the Section 8 waiting list with the New York City Housing Authority is 127,825.

$8000 credit so people can buy a new house and $4500 so they can buy a new car. Looks to me like Barry-O better watch his flank ... his left flank.

That isn't "a problem for Barry-O." That's a problem for people who need Section 8 housing, many of whom are families with kids. This is not something to celebrate or politicize unless you relish the idea of becoming the rich man who denied Lazarus a glass of water.

Section 8 beneficiaries = Uncle Barack's core voters. Gotta love the libs sudden fondness to use scripture and Bible stories to buttress their points and admonishments.

Here is one of the problems with Section 8. In the late 80's, HUD changed the law to include drug addicts and alcoholics as "disabled" individuals, thus qualifying for section 8.

In NE Jackson for example, the Chatam Village and the adjacent complex started taking SEction 8. They were owned by Prudential. Suddenly crime shot up. We caught people trying to steal cars in our drive way three different times. They all came from those apartments. Auto burglaries and home invasions in our area shot up. Crime is one thing. Paying for the crackheads and drunks to live next to you is something else and is an outrage. We were paying for the MF's to rob us. THAT is why people hate Section 8.
