Right Side News: The Contraceptive Mandate’s Shaky Justification

This is not and never was about contraception.  It is and always was about busting the first amendment and people's right to freedom of religion.  You can get lists and lists of places that offer contraception, so forcing Catholic hospitals and organizations to join that list is not about contraceptives.  Anyone who wants contraceptives can easily obtain them.  This is about him violating the 1st amendment and getting away with it, he hopes.  It is about the government forcing…

Buzz Feed: When Obama Was "A Progressive Urban Democrat"

An oldie but goodie.  This is Obama when he ran for congress in 2000, and he tells us his ideology is the same as the Black Panther, Rep Bobby Rush, the opponent.

 

President Obama has long positioned himself as a moderate figure. But in 2000 during his failed run against Rep. Bobby Rush he discussed being similar in political viewpoint to the former Black Panther Congressman and described himself as “progressive urban Democrat.” The video from…

Washington Post: Drones over U.S. get OK by Congress

Not one day goes by that these folks don't pass something that limits our rights or the constitution..................

 

2/7/2012

Look! Up in the sky! Is it a bird? Is it a plane? It’s … a drone, and it’s watching you. That’s what privacy advocates fear from a bill Congress passed this week to make it easier for the government to fly unmanned spy planes in U.S.…

JBS: Stop Presidential Line-item Veto Proposal

This is not a good idea at all, and as pointed out in the article it has been "abused and misused" in the past.  Also, "the Supreme Court struck down a line item veto law from the Clinton era due to the separation of powers issue".  We have to start holding the congress accountable when they pass laws that are unconstitutional again and again.

TU: Duval School Board to use $3.3 million grant to bring in new teachers

Why must every dime recieved be used to hire more union teachers or administrators or more people.  Aren't there other things that would improve the educational experience for these school children?  It just creates a problem when the grant goes away, and there is no money to keep these teachers.  This happens every time and then, the union claims we are cutting their budget when the grant is gone!

 

Board OKs position to apply grant, work…

TU: Florida House passes budget; plan boosts education funding, cuts area hospitals by $30M

More money for education would be a good thing as long as it goes to improve the schools instead of making administrators wallets fatter than they already are!  Usually though, the unions find a way to make it improve the lifestyles of their members.

President changes Military funerals

Our commander is chief has made a change in military funerals, and it is upsetting to those who have noticed.  It, to me, somehow diminishes the worth of these people who gave their lives or years of their lives fighting our wars and helping to keep us free.  This came from one of the members of the Arlington group.

 

When I received this email, I could not believe it...

Red State: House Conservatives Support Barack Obama’s Latest Stimulus

This is total lunacy.  These folks have got to stop spending money period............no matter what it is spent on.  We don't have the money; we can't spend it.

The Loft: Atheists Complain; Air Force Responds by Removing 'God' from Logo

This is totally rediculous, and a congressman from Virginia has written a letter asking this to be reversed.  You can't write and thank him on his web site, because you don't live in his district.  You can, however, go to his facebook page and thank him and he has a comment on his page about this.  I am including the article, and below it is a copy of the letter he wrote.  If you approve, you can go here…

CNS News: Come-From-Behind Santorum Wins All Three: 'Whole New Playing Field'

People tried to warn Romney and Gingrich that their personal warfare was impacting their standing in the polls, but they just refused to stop..............and now Romney has his sights on slamming Santorum.  Let's hope Mr. Santorum pulls a Bush and refuses to play the game.  Bush never did get into mud slinging fights, because he thought it was unpresidential (and it is).  Congratulations and good for you Mr. Santorum!

TU: Councilman Don Redman sets up shop at Occupy Jacksonville camp

I don't know how many of you heard about Don Redman's stance on the OWS gathering on the radio, so I thought you might like to see what he was doing.  We need to stop by and say a few words to him if we are downtown or write and thank him!

 

The councilman sat outside City Hall, but said he wasn't staying overnight.

Food Freedom: ‘No Food Rights’ Judge quits to work for Monsanto law firm

Although this ruling took place in September, it has now been discovered on September 30th, he went to work for Monsanto (who stood to gain from the ruling he made at the beginning of September).  Shameful how crooked everything is now!

 

Judge Fiedler ruled that humans:



“Do not have a fundamental right to own and use a dairy cow or a dairy herd;”

“Do not have a fundamental right to consume…

BLACKLISTED NEWS: The ill-effects of Monsanto's Genetically Modified Seeds in India

This is an update on an ongoing problem with Monsanto (dear friends, and I am sure contributors, to the Obamas and the Clintons) which might explain why they have been closely linked and kept close if not involved in FDA (not a good idea considering, wouldn't you say?).

RYAN NICHOLS - Hardened Criminal?? Seriously??

If you're not already aware. This is what's going on in DC while dangerous criminals are allowed back out on the streets.  It's horrifying that this is happening to our citizens and veterans for protesting the hijacking of our election process. This is still happening! They are STILL being tortured and treated like full on terrorists. 

You may not be aware of the typical things they're forced to go through...…
