This is a really good article.  Makes a lot of sense. 

BBC News - Richard III dig: Mysteries remain over notorious king

Subject: Kill House Bill 87

Subject: Kill House Bill 87

I signed a petition to The Florida State House, The Florida State Senate, and Governor Rick Scott which says:

"The people demand that House Bill 87 be voted down and not passed into law, as the proposed Bill is no more than another brazen attempt to further deprive U.S. citizens of their constitutional rights to due process of law in Florida's courts, and will be used as a stepping stone to change the State of Florida into a non-judicial foreclosure state."

Will you sign this petition? Click here:

The Post Office isn't broke -- it's being robbed

The Post Office isn't broke -- it's being robbed.

The United States Postal Service has just announced due to budget shortfalls, mail will no longer be delivered on Saturdays starting in August.

It's true the post office faces financial challenges. However, the financial problems are in large part a direct result of an onerous and ill-considered 2006 law called the "Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act" (PAEA) mandating pre-funding the postal service retiree health care and pension benefits for 75 years — something no other government agency or private company is forced to do.

The vast majority — 85% — of the budget red ink comes from this pre-funding mandate. The PAEA was created by Republicans intent on goal: 
Killing a government service or the sake of proving government can't work.

Please tell Congress: Don't let Republicans kill the Post Office.
