CENSUS NEEDS THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE IN OKLAHOMA TO FILL JOBS
The U S Census Bureau will hire thousands of people throughout the state of Oklahoma between now and next spring. This strong economic shot in the arm is like having several factories open up in the state! Up to a total of approximately 5,000 people will be on staff during peak times.
“This is the largest civilian mobilization of workers in the history of the United States” said Dennis Johnson, Regional Director.
These are good paying, temporary jobs for the field positions of Recruiting Assistants, Crew
Leaders, Crew Leader Assistants, Census Takers and Census Clerks. Amount of pay depends on position and location. Work related mileage is reimbursed. There may be some opportunities for advancement.
Positions are available in every community.
The U. S. Census Bureau encourages interested persons to apply for these jobs by calling the Toll Free Jobs Line at 1-866-861-2010.
We need conservatives filling these positions. Conservatives need to control how the census is conducted to preserve our liberties.
On Saturday, I was saddened to learn of EZ Million’s passing. He passed away due to complications of blood clots and infection. Just recently, he had to
have one leg amputated.
I first met EZ, in 1968-69 at my mom’s house in South OKC. EZ and my brother-in-law were active in the Republican Party and also at that time were always talking about computers. At the time, I actually thought both of them were a little strange.
EZ was one of the first conservatives in Cleveland County. He was a true believer that Congress should follow the Constitution. He preached this long before anyone else had ever thought about using the words “Constitutional Conservative”.
I do not believe we will ever have another EZ Million, he was an excellent statistician, colorful and sometimes controversial. He advocated for the OU/Texas game to be a home and home series and even talked about the amount of money Norman loses each year with the game being in Dallas.
EZ used to call me once or twice a week, asking who is running or who should be running for the Senate or the House in Cleveland County and he would recommend speakers for our luncheon club. He was a major advocate in trying
to get conservatives involved in School Board and City Council races.
I am proud to call EZ Million a friend. We will miss EZ, who without a question, was one of a kind!

Four letters to the Editor at the Norman Transcript for the Sunday paper. Every week the Transcript is full of letters from liberals bashing conservative and some times even Christians. Now let’s see how many letters the Transcript prints from conservatives. The interesting thing about these letters is that they were not an organized campaign. It seems as though everyone is feed up with the Transcript’s liberal agenda. Glad to see the silent majority come alive!

Dear Editor
I’m happy to see the American people finally coming back to reality. Last
year we elected Barack Obama because he promised a new kind of politics that
would end the partisan divisions that plagued Washington. Instead, he only
made the problem worse. Now any criticism of the president is met with
cries of racism-a disturbing trend that evinces the intellectual weakness of
his supporters.
Obama also promised to cut the deficit by cutting net government spending.
Instead, we got deficits as large as you can imagine. In less than one
year, he’s increased the deficit by trillions of dollars-giving away
taxpayer money to private corporations and spending it on unnecessary
projects. Worse: Mr.Obama’s budget doubles the national debt to $23.1
trillion, which will equal our entire GDP, in just ten years.
Obama and the Democrats told us that this spending was necessary to grow the
economy and keep unemployment below 8%. Funny how they didn’t think that
when the last president was running up the deficit. Apparently intellectual
consistency isn’t their strong suit. Nevertheless, our economic situation
continues to deteriorate as hundreds of thousand of Americans lose their
jobs each month. The unemployment rate stands at 9.7%, well above the 8%
ceiling Obama and his economic advisers promised. And it’s only going to
get worse.
Now the president and his allies in Congress want to ram a new trillion
dollar spending bill down our throats in the guise of health care reform, an
effort that will raise our taxes and the costs of everyone’s medical care
and insurance. Only in Washington can spending a trillion be considered
saving money. No wonder Obama’s approval ratings have plummeted by 18
points and only 21% view Congress favorably. The people have come back to
reality and realized Obama is just a politician that offers more of the
same.

Dear Editor Rieger,
Much as I respect the opinions expressed by Larry Steele’s letter appearing
on the editorial page last Monday, the health care debate gets down to
whether or not you trust federal government solutions to be the best way to
do health care. If you like federal fixes, look at the Indian health care
system (and about just anything else the US Government has done to “protect”
Native Americans!) Or look at the VA health care system. How well does it
work? Ask a veteran- just don’t ask the veteran who appeared on the front
pages of the Transcript when that decorated but disabled veteran fought to
not get kicked out of the local VA facility. Without Judge Hetherington’s
order for a stay, he would have been evicted! (Thank you Judge!) But do we
want to have to go to court each time a government health employee decides
against us?
According to Steele’s world view, we would already have health
care reform if those power-lusting Republicans would just shut up and row
the boat. While Larry cracks the whip on those he wants to row harder in
the gallery, let’s remember that there are more than enough Democrats to
pass this or any other health plan because Democrats hold comfortable
margins in the Senate and House. But thanks to our own Oklahoma Congressman
Dan Boren, and some other Democrats who do not believe all Obama claims, the
President’s version of reform has been turned back!
Others who do not believe all of President Obama’s claims
include the Congressional Budget Office. Obama says his plan is
revenue-neutral and its savings will off-set its cost, even while he adds 43
million uninsured people to the health care plans. The CBO says otherwise.
Not because they are evil. But because they crunched the numbers, as
evidently Boren has done as well.
Is Obama telling the truth? You decide. While I am among those
who don’t believe him, I do believe he thinks what he is saying is close to
the truth, if not the gospel truth itself. Congressman Joe Wilson says the
President is lying about illegal aliens being eligible for coverage. Read
the bill. It has no provisions to enforce compliance, and no provision
calling for proof of citizenship. So it’s pretty much like a speed limit in
a town that has no police force.
As expressed in an editorial reprinted in the September 15th Transcript,
(“Civility is dying, and that’s no lie”) we all lose when those we respect
behave like charm-school drop-outs. But the obituary for civility should
have been printed much earlier, perhaps when Democrats booed President
Bush’s 2005 State of the Union Address, or when Nancy Pelosi (now Speaker of
the House) called President Bush a liar, or when Senate Leader Harry Reid
called President Bush a “loser and a liar.” So should have Congress voted
to reprimand Congressman Joe Wilson for calling President Obama a liar? You
decide. I have: Congress should have rebuked Republican Congressman Wilson
“for behaving like a Democrat!”
Respectfully,
Jim

Letter to the Editor,
I am shocked that the Norman Transcript has become so partisan. I opened the paper this morning and found nothing about Acorn being disfunded by the House of Representatives. Earlier you omitted the story about the US Senate doing the same. You’ve censored any news reporting on the discovery of the Acorn scandals in Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York and San Bernardino and any story about the radical communist Van Jones being dismissed from his position as Obama’s Green Jobs Czar.
This country is split between conservatives and liberals. You choose to promote only stories favorable to the liberals. Your paper is the print version of MSNBC. The only thing worth reading in your paper is the Pickles cartoon strip and the sports page! Have you ever considered being fair and balanced?
We need a second newspaper in Norman.
Prof. Edward F Blick
Dear Editor:
How does the Transcript claim to be “Trusted. Tested. Timeless” and
completely ignore coverage of the Solidarity March and Tea Party Rally last
Sunday? Over 3000 Oklahomans, including many Cleveland County residents
participated in the event, which was part of a nation-wide movement
involving over a million people expressing their concern about the policies
of the Obama Administration and Congress. Most of the local television
stations covered the event as did the biggest newspaper in the state. Yet a
review of both the Transcript’s print and online editions reveals that there
is not a single story covering the event!
Instead, Monday’s edition gives front page treatment to yet another
rehashing of US Representative Joe Wilson and the House Democratic
Leadership’s calls for a second apology – 5 days after he apologized to
President Obama.
It’s ironic that on Page 2 of Monday’s Transcript is a story reporting that
more Americans than ever believe that the media is politically biased. Look
no further than this very newspaper for explanation.
Sincerely,
Mike Milligan
