I would suggest your viewers go to the Public Interest Institutes Iowa Transparency web site and read the latest Iowa Transparency Newsletter where figures are shown indicating Iowa is a total of $14.4 Trillion in debt and the state and cities have done little to show concern about their failure of responsibility or accountability to the taxpayers who are robbed to keep the charade going, although the state employees still enjoy their title of “The Privileged Class”. By the way the counties are the only entity that has reduced their debt somewhat.
The web site address is: www.iowatransparency.org
I can assure you this article will make you sick to your stomach at what’s been going on with the management of our tax dollars in Des Moines, cities and counties although counties have attempted to operate within a budget and have reduced their debt. Actually, every entity that gets tax money has been living in the red that has finally driven our state debt past $14 Trillion.
Each Iowa citizen is in debt because of Iowa state and local governments failures to the tune of $47,059 based on 306 million state citizens.
The top five (5) losers are: Cities $5 trillion, School Districts/AEAs $3 trillion, State Authorities $2.4 trillion, Board of Regents $1.4 trillion, State Agencies $1.05 trillion, Counties $798.4 million, Community Colleges $579.5 million and others $43.5 million.
Of course no one will be held responsible or accountable for the losses and the massive debt the “The Privileged Class” has bestowed upon the “Robbed Class,” the taxpayer, who is forced to pay for the totally incompetent governments who represents us, supposdely in Iowa.
Each and every citizen in Iowa is in debt to the tune of $47,059 because of the people running government and only they can be held responsible for this catastrophic failure of trust, accountability, responsibility and honor.
Every Falcon viewer should go to the web site and actually read how we have been duped by government entities here in Iowa.

Here’s the latest lies from the government about 2012 being the hottest ever. Those who trust government information while Obama is in office should take it about as reliable as getting ice water in hell.
It appears anyone working for government is bound to lie about everything published in order to continue pushing the Obama agenda regardless of the real facts in order to continue on their free ride at taxpayer expense.
Hottest year ever? Skeptics question revisions to climate data | Fox News
This information will probably not be published in the Hack Eye or left leaning news
media in order to conceal it from the Obama voters as has been done since his first election and will continue for the next four years.

Well, last year Planned Parenthood committed murder on 334,000 unborn babies. In the last three years Planned Parenthood has murdered 995,000 babies. On top of the murders the taxpayers are out $542 million dollars that the government saw fit to give Planned Parenthood in cash or through tax breaks.
I wonder how many babies are murdered right here in Burlington at Planned Parenthood over on North Sixth Street in the middle of a residential area and very close to North Hill School. Where those that aren’t murdered can be seen enjoying their recess time out of doors on a daily basis. This type of operation just doesn’t seem civil, a situation where some are allowed to enter the world while others, through no fault of their own are lucky to draw one breath before their killed because no one wants them or the parents just can’t manage to get the free birth control that’s available to their living children in most cases.
It must take a real sick person to kill unborn babies for a living as though the person were just working in a meat market and then go home acting as though their just an everyday person who murders babies for his or her paycheck. People like this will get their just reward after their gone and are then held responsible, I bet they can’t wait and I wonder if they even think about it.
Watch the video Obama Must See English Version on the left or click on the web page below. Be sure to watch to the end where you can actually see what happens to a baby who looks like he or she was very close to natural birth when murdered.

Nothing like working for the state, getting fired for drunk driving and the second time for being fired again for substance abuse and then being rehired both times. Funny the state would appoint a convicted drunk driver to investigate the Burlington boat accident involving alcohol last summer where people are being charged for operating boats while legally drunk amongst other charges. Only working for the state would people like Mr. Kay get chance after chance to keep his job and end up investigate a case where he has been guilty of drunk driving himself and according to the state in a boat or a truck there is no difference.
When it comes to government and unions there’s no shame or morals between democrats and those that commit offenses resulting in their firings. Since the Iowa senate is run by democrats the governor has no way of cleaning up the special interest relationship between the government unions and democrats that result in the rehiring of fired workers that wouldn’t happen in the private sector. Democrats aren’t about to cut off their union money when election time rolls around regardless of its moral implications.
So, the policy in Iowa is to just sweep state employees records under the rug when they commit offenses resulting in their being fired. Sounds like the state believes no one is replaceable in the group known as the “Privileged Class” in Iowa, state employees. Lifetime employment no matter what has happened to break the public trust with the taxpayer. These people are paid by the taxpayer and not some bureaucrat up in Des Moines or the democrats.
According to Mr. Kay there was good reason he was hired back but of course that can’t be made public; so isn’t that extraordinarily convenient for Mr. Kay, something that can only happen in state government designed to protect the “Privileged Class” in Iowa while keeping the democrat campaign money flowing.
The following article about Mr. Kay was published in the Des Moines Register.
One of those is Paul Kay, a state conservation officer in Des Moines County who has been fired twice — and returned to his job twice — in the past five years. Five other state workers have been fired twice for just cause, according to Department of Administrative Services records.
Kay was fired in February 2008 for driving drunk while off duty. But he was reinstated through a settlement agreement with the state that included a 30-day suspension and his agreement to abide by the department’s substance abuse policy.
Kay’s second firing came in June 2009 — for a violation of the Department of Natural Resources substance abuse policy, according to his unemployment benefits appeal.
Records show Kay and another DNR employee who was not named in state unemployment records were at Catfish Bend Casino in Burlington when the co-worker helped himself to beer at a casino bar that had closed after 2 a.m. Kay consumed a portion of the beer — then both were removed from the casino by a casino security employee. Kay was later charged with theft, state records show.
Court records show that fifth-degree theft charges
against Kay were dismissed later that year. Kay, 38, is still employed with the state after appealing his firing to an arbitrator.He declined to discuss the situation with the Register.
“There was a good reason to be reinstated, but I don’t want to say,” Kay said.
The Iowa State Police Officers Council, Kay’s union, argued during arbitration in 2010 that Kay was an exceptional officer. Kay’s actions at the casino did not rise to the level of substance abuse, the union said, according to arbitrator records.
DNR spokesman Kevin Baskins declined to discuss Kay’s case. However, arbitrator records show the state defended its decision to fire Kay, saying he “brought discredit and embarrassment to the department.”
Arbitrator Jeffrey Jacobs said the question of whether Kay violated the substance abuse policy was “thorny,” but he ruled the incident did not undercut Kay’s ability or job performance.
His legally binding decision was to give Kay his job back.

If I’m not mistaken there were 36 babies murdered in Conn. by abortion the same day the school shootings took place. Although these 36 weren’t shot they were murdered by needles into the back of the head or just vacuumed out through a hose and thrown into the trash or down the drain.
Where is the outrage about this murder of unborn babies by the general public and the administratin along with the other dimwits in Washington. Could these silent people be the worlds biggest hypocrites, where ever they are.
If anyone would like to see the human way babies are murdered should check out abort73.com. It’s not right some nut case kills children with a gun but it’s ok for some butcher in a clinic or someother person to kill them while still in the mother simply because she doesn’t what it for one reason or another. Twenty shot down in school and thirty-six intentionally murdered in just one day and no one complains about the thirty-six (36) aborted under the guise its legal-because the supreme court said it was. Who okayed the supreme court to kill babies by slaughtering them before birth.
All baby killers will be judged eventually regardless of the supreme court or anyone else who thinks they have the right to allow baby killing by the millions. There really seems to be a double standard in the way abortion is thought of in this country and around the world and we’re worried about guns being the cause for killing children while its the supreme court in America that allowed the wholesale killing of babies, in the millions. Guns compared to abortions is probably close to a negative number in the killing of children versus abortion but both are still morally wrong and sinful.

“On December 29, the 7th Cavalry under Colonel James Forsyth surrounded a band of Ghost Dancers under the Sioux Chief Big Foot near Wounded Knee Creek and demanded they surrender their weapons. Big Foot and his followers had no intentions of attacking anyone, but they were distrustful of the army and feared they would be attacked if they relinquished their guns. Nonetheless, the Sioux agreed to surrender and began turning over their guns. As that was happening, a scuffle broke out between an Indian and a soldier, and a shot was fired. Though no one is certain which side fired it, the ensuing melee was quick and brutal. Without arms and outnumbered, the Sioux were reduced to hand-to-hand fighting with knives, and they were cut down in a withering rain of bullets, many coming from the army’s rapid-fire repeating Hotchkiss guns. By the time the soldiers withdrew, 146 Indians were dead (including 44 women and 18 children) and 51 wounded. The 7th Cavalry had 25 dead and 39 wounded.” (history Channel) http://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/us-army-massacres-sioux-at-wounded-knee?cmpid=INT_Outbrain_TDIH_HIS&obref=obnetwork
As you notice that this event did not end well for all of those involved. We need to learn from history. The Native Americans of the United States tried to stand for their rights and the federal government did as they wished. Remember it is We the People. Make sure your voice is heard regardless if think you are one person. Never sit silently and think there is nothing I can do.

For those wondering why the Sandy Relief bill failed to pass need only look at our crooked politicians in Washington trying to line the pockets of their friends in states nowhere near hurricane Sandy’s area of destruction.
The Pork Filled and Expensive Non-Relief Sandy Relief Bill – Katie Pavlich
I would also like to mention those affected by water damage should buy themselves insurance and not depend on the taxpayer for their failure to buy insurance. Many of the damaged homes are within feet of the ocean and should in no way be covered by the government because of poor decision making by the owner. There was even millions of dollars stuck within the pork for the EPA our American version of the administrations Gestapo. It is just sickening to see what these self-serving dimwits in Washington won’t do to get reelected or insure their power.
We need a law limiting what government is libel for in cases of natural disasters where people build homes and other structures in areas adjacent to possible storm damage zones from water and wind such as hurricanes. Such as if the home is closer than one mile from the beaches and so on. Some of the homes were less than a hundred feet off the ocean and should have been expected to be destroyed during a bad storm. People that build in dangerous zones should buy their own insurance simply because they built in a dangerous area.

I see where the Fiscal Cliff deal was pay day for many special interest organizations that will receive millions from the current administration even though the U.S. is broke.
Hollywood payback by Obama
Hollywood racked in $430 million in tax breaks for filming in the U.S. It’s funny they would give an organization that has no morals and warps the minds of our children tax breaks which are probably tied to their support of Obama.
$9 Billion “sop for Wall Street banks and major multinationals”
As Dan Eggen has reported, this provision, first created in 1997, allows manufacturers and banks to defer taxes when they engage in a special type of financial transactions known as “active financing.” The break now costs $9 billion per year, and critics claim it encourages firms to create jobs overseas. But it’s a top lobbying priority for companies like GE and JP Morgan, who say that it helps them compete abroad, and it will get extended another year.
A Rum tax for Puerto Rico
Another longstanding item—this one dates back to 1917. Congress currently levies an excise tax worth $13.50 per gallon on all rum produced in or imported to the United States. Most of that money is transferred to Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands, who use the revenue to support their rum industries. In 2009, this tax raised some $547 million. The cliff deal would extend the current arrangement another year. (By the way, Puerto Rico’s non-voting representative in the House, Pedro Pirellis, thinks this tax set-up is too favorable to rum distillers.)
Cheaper office space for Goldman Sachs
Okay, it’s certainly not called this. Section 328 of the bill extends tax-exempt financing for the “Liberty Zone,” the area around the former World Trade Center, for another year. As Matt Stoller points out, this tax provision was supposed to help fund reconstruction after 9/11. Yet a recent Bloomberg investigation found the bonds have mostly helped finance new luxury apartments, not to mention the construction of Goldman Sachs’ new headquarters. Developers say the bonds were necessary to revitalize downtown Manhattan, but there’s a fierce debate over how they’ve been used.
Wind energy payday
The fiscal cliff deal has a bunch of provisions for clean energy—notably; it extends a key tax credit for wind power for one more year, thus preventing the U.S. wind industry from downsizing. (That credit will cost about $1.2 billion per year for 10 years.)
Help NASCAR build racetracks
Okay, it’s certainly not called this. Section 328 of the bill extends tax-exempt financing for the “Liberty Zone,” the area around the former World Trade Center, for another year. As Matt Stoller points out, this tax provision was supposed to help fund reconstruction after 9/11. Yet a recent Bloomberg investigation found the bonds have mostly helped finance new luxury apartments, not to mention the construction of Goldman Sachs’ new headquarters. Developers say the bonds were necessary to revitalize downtown Manhattan, but there’s a fierce debate over how they’ve been used.
Promote plug-in electric scooters
For years, Congress has been trying to promote electric cars through various tax breaks and subsidies. But what about electric bikes and scooters? Section 403 of the bill extends a credit for “2- or 3-wheeled plug-in electric vehicles.” Yes, these things do exist: The Observer recently reported that e-bikes have become ubiquitous in New York City, used for everything from Chinese food deliveries to expensive joyrides. Only problem? They might well be illegal to ride in New York, although the rules here are awfully confusing.
I think this enough of a sample to tell the American voter how their being constantly fleeced by Washington special interest debt paybacks.

Here’s an article from Townhall about why Fordham University banned Ann Coulter from appearing but decided to host Peter Singer, a known advocate for bestiality and infanticide to appear.
When the Fordham University College Republicans wanted to host conservative author Ann Coulter on campus, they were met with a disapproving statement from their school president, Rev. Joseph M. McShane, although he added he would not bar Coulter from speaking. In the end, the group cancelled Coulter’s appearance.
But according to The Daily Caller, not long after the disagreement, Fordham agreed to host Peter Singer, a known advocate for bestiality and infanticide. In his essay entitled “Heavy Petting,” Singer approves of intercourse with animals, stating. “sex across the species barrier…ceases to be an offence [sic] to our status and dignity as human beings.”
This guy appearing at Fordham is a classic example of what’s wrong with American higher education and how it warps the minds of the young.
