According to the Columbus Dispatch, although a couple of hundred of those jobs were in Columbus City Schools, the district acknowledged yesterday that many of the “saved” jobs definitely wouldn’t have been lost in the first place, and others might not have been lost at all.
“I know we explained to (the Ohio Department of Education) what we were doing, and they told us what categories to use,” said Jill Dannemiller, director of federal programs for the Columbus schools.

Does anyone else find this a tad odd? Why would the New Jersey Democratic State Committee admit to paying for robocalls in Somerset County to slam Republican Chris Christie and promote the so called independent gubernatorial candidate Christopher Daggett? Wouldn’t one tend to think that a Democrat State Committee would at least promote their own candidate Jon Corzine? Could it be Daggett’s sole purpose of being in this race in the first place is the drain votes from Christie in the first place? Politicker NJ has more:

Palestinians Accuse Billary Clinton of Undermining Peace Talks With Shift on Settlements
Palestinians are now accusing U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton of undermining progress toward Mideast peace talks after she praised Israel for offering to curb some Jewish settlement construction. I say good for you Hillary, its about time you do something right! Although knowing Obama’s true feeling/attitudes towards Israel, this was probably nothing more than just lip service. After meeting Israeli and Palestinian leaders during a visit Saturday, Clinton called for an unconditional resumption of peace talks and welcomed Israel’s offer for a slowdown in settlement activity. But according to Fox News, Palestinians rejected the idea of resuming talks, reiterating their demand that Israel must first freeze all construction of Jewish settlements in the West Bank and east Jerusalem — lands they claim for a future state.
Ford UAW workers overwhelmingly reject cost-saving contract changes
Ford Motor Company workers have overwhelmingly rejected contract changes that would have allowed Ford to cut labor costs and be more competitive with Government owned GM and Chrysler. This leaves Ford at a disadvantage in its struggle for profitability. Many believe that the UAW rejection is merely a retaliation tactic because unlike GM and Chrysler, Ford didn’t take bailout money.

FOX News Sunday — Full Interview with Rush Limbaugh
Liberal head explosions began early on Sunday as Fox News Sunday interviewed Rush Limbaugh. The full implosion comes this coming Tuesday with the 2 governor elections and Doug Hoffman congress seat. Among the “highlights” of the interview included Limbaugh’s statement of Obama is pursuing a “radical” agenda that is putting the economy and national security in peril, (which is true). Limbaugh called Obama a “child” driven by his “out-of-this-world ego.” (Truth again). Some other great quotes:
“I’m really, really worried. We’ve never seen this kind of radical leadership at such a high level of power in the country,” Limbaugh said. “I don’t think we’re better off in any way it could be measured.”
“He’s immature, he’s inexperienced — in over his head,” Limbaugh said of the president. He repeated former Vice President Dick Cheney’s charge that Obama is “dithering” on deciding a strategy for the war in Afghanistan.
“I believe that the economy is under siege,” he said.
“This is not about insuring the uninsured — this is not about health care,” Limbaugh said. “This is about stealing one-sixth of the U.S. private sector and putting it under the control of the federal government.”
“And when they get this health care bill — if they do — that’s the easiest, fastest way for them to be able to regulate every aspect of human behavior, because it will all have some related cost to health care — what you drive, what you eat, where you live, what you do — and there will be penalties for violating regulation.”
“It’s going to be the biggest snatch of freedom and liberty that has yet occurred in this country.”
“I know that there is an eruption waiting to happen at the ballot box,” he said.
