With Hurricane Alex churning through the Gulf of Mexico Wednesday and this year’s hurricane season forecasted to be an active one, scientists are worried about how the Gulf Coast will fare from the potential wallop it could take.
Right now, scientists are predicting that this hurricane season, which officially began on June 1, could be as intense as or worse than in 2005 (the most active Atlantic season ever recorded and the year Hurricane Katrina struck).
This stormy weather has the potential to not only wreak the normal havoc on coastal areas, toppling trees and flooding inland areas, but could worsen the already devastating impact of the BP oil spill on the Gulf, spreading tar balls over a much wider area, as well as across not-yet-hit marshes, according to Ping Wang in the Department of Geology at the University of South Florida. Already, Alex has pushed oil from the spill onto Gulf coast beaches, with some tar balls as large as apples, according to news reports.
Schools urged to bring back the junk food “for the children” before it’s too late! Oh, yeah. And give the kids condoms too. No need to worry the working parents over it. (Government controlled health care reform in action!)
(NaturalNews) In its never-ending attempt to fabricate “mental disorders” out of every human activity, the psychiatric industry is now pushing the most ridiculous disease they’ve invented yet: Healthy eating disorder.
This is no joke: If you focus on eating healthy foods, you’re “mentally diseased” and probably need some sort of chemical treatment involving powerful psychotropic drugs. The Guardian newspaper reports, “Fixation with healthy eating can be sign of serious psychological disorder” and goes on to claim this “disease” is called orthorexia nervosa — which is basically just Latin for “nervous about correct eating.” Continue reading “Choosing healthy foods now called a mental disorder” »
Milwaukee Democratic County Supervisor Peggy West voted for their boycott of Arizona because it is not share a border with Mexico. She claims that if you “google,” you can find that Obama has National Guard troops on the border. She forgot to mention the EPA ban on the Border Patrol protecting the border because of “environmentally sensitive areas.” With the mention of Google, the popular search engine, let’s see what we can find out.
DISCLAIMER: I had to use Google to find the spelling for Milwaukee because I didn’t know how to spell it. So I guess I won’t pass a litmus test to hold office.
Chief Justice John Marshall (1833). Strong States' Rights proponent.
If you were watching the confirmation hearing of Elana Kagan, you would have seen Feinstein and Schumer announce with glee that the Supreme Court upheld the Second Amendment, once again, and reversed the gun laws in Illinois banning handguns.
The important thing is that, reading that decision, we find what this matter of incorporation was all about. Section II, B of the Opinion of the Court reads:
The Bill of Rights, including the Second Amendment, originally applied only to the Federal Government. In Barron ex rel. Tiernan v. Mayor of Baltimore, [32 US] 7 Pet. 243 (1833), the Court, in an opinion by Chief Justice Marshall, explained that this question was “of great importance” but “not of much difficulty.” Id., at 247. In less than four pages, the Court firmly rejected the proposition that the first eight Amendments operate as limitations on the States, holding that they apply only to the Federal Government
Police in Oregon have released an audio recording of the statement made by 54-year-old massage therapist who once claimed that former Vice President Al Gore tried sexually assaulted her.
Here we go again. We are now going through plenty of blunders in opening statements by the Senators. From Republican Tom Coburn’s statement about our “Constitutional Democracy” to Schumer and Feinstein showing that they do NOT KNOW the Constitution, or “…don’t care about it in instances like this.” Continue reading “Elena Kagan confirmation hearing.” »
92-year-old Sen. Robert Byrd (D-WV) died earlier this morning. First elected in 1958, Sen. Byrd was the longest serving U.S. Senator and Member of Congress in history. He is also the author of five books, including a series on the history of the Senate.
West Virginia Gov. Joe Manchin (D) will appoint a replacement for Sen. Byrd.
Despair is typical of those who do not understand the causes of evil, see no way out, and are incapable of struggle.—Vladimir Lenin
The press should be not only a collective propagandist and a collective agitator, but also a collective organizer of the masses.—Vladimir Lenin
It is true that liberty is precious; so precious that it must be carefully rationed.—Vladimir Lenin
Terrorists have succeeded in another terrorist plot against the United States. Bombs have been unleashed in the homes of Americans across the country, yet no buildings have fallen. It is the type of terror used across this nation since the Wilson administration. Some physical “black ops,” but mostly a type of terrorism not reported by the State-approved media. It is not reported because they are the perpetrator. The terror is psychological. It is spawned by CNN, MSNBC, CBS ABC and, yes, the Fox News Network.
This terror was used by Democrats against Republican complaining that Republican wanted to end Social Security. Of course, a Constitutional Republican (sometimes mistakenly referred to as a Libertarian) would want to end Social Security. That type of phrase is exactly the type that the Democrats use to prove their point. Of course, they lie by omission.
The argument goes something like this. The Republicans want to end Social Security in favor of private investments. Look at the recent “housing bubble” and auto industry crisis. What would happen if people invested all of their money in those industries. What then?
The omissions: The “free” education that is in place by the Department of Education, run by the National Teachers’ Association union1 has taught that economics, which used to be taught in schools2, are too complex for our pretty little heads to worry over. 2nd, the taxes wrested from the hands of unsuspecting citizens for a specific purpose (that in itself is unconstitutional) were unconstitutionally diverted to the opulence of the Washington Empire. 3rd, that the Social, so-called, Security is virtually defunct and running on IOUs. 4th, the so-called collapse was instigated by, and controlled by, the Federal Reserve and cheerleaded by Congress who pressured Fannie Mae and others to get into risky derivatives and other high risk investments. It is the same terrorists method that the “National Bank” used against Andrew Jackson when he vetoed their charter and against Jimmy Carter when he fired Alan Greenspan. 5thTo end the current system does not remove the obligation that the federal government has to pay those who paid in to the system. They simply have to stop stealing the money and start putting it back in.
Now that General McChrystal is gone, liberals and conservatives seem to agree that McChrystal did not show sufficient “respect” for President Obama. But what about respect from Obama and his ruling liberal elite for our system, our country, and its values? What about the chain of command that makes Obama answerable to the American people and the system that he is so brazenly attempting to transform into something completely foreign to what our founders intended?
Whatever differences the liberals and conservatives have on this issue, most commentators agree that General McChrystal—and his aides—should not have said what was in the Rolling Stone interview. The agreement explains why the liberals have won the battle over the long-term fate of the United States of America. They are controlling the debate over what is appropriate and what is not.

A writer masquerading as a conservative who was supposed to be covering the conservative movement has quit his job under fire at the Washington Post. The writer, David Weigel, left after it came to light that he had made disparaging remarks about conservative personalities on a private email list of liberal journalists. The scandal involves The Washington Post, Reason magazine, and a network of “independent” on-line publications with funding from billionaire George Soros and multi-millionaire gay mogul Tim Gill.
The ballot measures for November are published on the Arizona Legislative web site, but are waiting Proposition numbers. Now is the time to read the measures and get the impressions of your friends and neighbors. Email your legislators if you have ANY questions.

HCR2001 early childhood development; health; repeal AnalysisMeasure
This measure would repeal the Early Childhood Development and Health program statutes on June 10 1, 2011. The eighty-cents collected from the tobacco tax—that was raised to “pay for” smokers clogging up the health care system—and any money in the Early Childhood Development program would go to the general fund.

After Obama used Clinton to announce that he was suing Arizona, we learn that Mexico is joining the lawsuit. They entered an amicus curiae brief asking judges to abandon their oath to the Constitution to continue to allow illegal activity.
It also requires police to question people about their immigration status, if officers suspect the person is in the US illegally, and if they have stopped them for a legitimate reason.
The Mexican government submitted arguments as a “friend of the court”, or amicus curiae, meaning it is not a party to the case, but is offering a legal opinion which it believes has bearing on it.
It is in support of a case brought by a group of civil rights organisations, including the Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund, the National Immigration Law Center, and the American Civil Liberties Union.
The US senators pushing a controversial new bill that some fear would give President Barack Obama the powers to seize control of and even shut down the internet have rejected claims it would give Obama a net “kill switch”.
Flagstaff, AZ – The U.S. Forest Service is seeking information concerning the person or persons responsible for causing the Schultz Fire, which has cost nearly $3 million in suppression costs.
The Forest Service is offering a reward of up to $2,500 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible.
The Schultz fire was caused by a campfire that was abandoned without being properly extinguished in the area of Schultz Tank, Little Elden Trail, and Forest Road 420.
The fire has spread to 14,800 acres and is currently 40% contained. The expected containment date is July 2. The 3800-acre Eagle Rock fire is considered 90% contained and poses no threat to visitors to Williams. Highway 89 through Flagstaff and 64 are apparently still open.
Please call the Schultz Fire Investigations hotline at (928) 527-3508 if you have any information.
