A tip of the hat to Caleb Johnson who's site Mayflower History has become the definitive website as it regards virtually all things Mayflower.

2012 Election by Counties

Thanks a million Reince

got his job, and blew it big time.
You owe Mike Steele 
and the party an apology.
Do the honorable thing:
Resign.

Obama sets new record!

Oops!

Big Bird cost you almost a half billion a year.

Public Broadcasting receives only 15% of their annual budget from the federal government (Read: Your tax dollars)

However that 15% amounted in 2012 to just shy of a half billion; $445,000,000 

Meanwhile, thanks to the poor business practices employed by PBS they failed to cut themselves in for any royalty from "collateral sales". (Muppets)

Thus they broadcast what amounts to a Muppet infomercial while the late Jim Henson died leaving an estate of over 90 million.


If you don't feel short changed by all of this, you're not paying attention.....but we're all paying for Big Bird.
