[Mrs] T and I visited ConcreteBob on Saturday and as one can see, he is in good spirits. CB says that he is being a model patient, not complaining or moaning about anything.

AGRICULTURE — Help struggling California farmers I am writing to encourage people in Arizona to attend an event Friday in support of California farmers who are struggling this year. Their water supply has been cut off due to radical environmental regulations and the Delta smelt, an endangered fish. This is important for all Americans to understand because this area supplies produce for our food supply. I have been to the Web site www.farmwater.org and seen the photos of people standing in line for food to receive carrots from China. This is disturbing on so many levels to me and I...

Just a quick update on the current Citizen Reporter project that we started up about three weeks ago: The following cities have representation by one or more people.

We will need numerous people in larger towns, like NYC, Atlanta, Miami, L.A. etc. Here are the following cities where we have a presence: Richmond, VA Tampa, FL Miami, FL Chattanooga, TN Knoxville,...

There is little better in this world than doing some good, and especially doing some good for the troops with a good group of people. Cooking with the Wounded is now a formal program, and Phase II kicked off in high style thanks to Katy and Molly of the Yellow Bowl Bakery, who have founded their own group Bakers without Borders to do for the troops, and to Concrete Bob who brought together the 173rd ABN, the Warrior Legacy Foundation, DC Free Republic, and the grilling regulars to do quite a cookout. The result was pure Southern hospitality: grazing from...

Just found out from her son -- he found her on the floor of her bedroom. Kristy had a host of health conditions she'd been battling for literally decades, including progressively severe hypoxemia (low blood oxygen), but still this was unexpected. She was 60 years old. She loved this place, and was quite active on the prayer threads. Kristy and I met on FR six years ago, and over time we became the very best of friends. I loved her dearly. Don't know what else to say, other than my soul feels like it has a gigantic hole in it....

Bellevue tax collector Joe Nolan, 53, plans to announce today he's challenging U.S. Rep. Mike Doyle, D-Forest Hills, in the 2010 general election. Nolan, a Republican, said he's "become more and more concerned about the path we've taken," specifically bank and insurance company bailouts, he said. He said he opposes the cap-and-trade legislation, which could come up for a final vote in Congress this year, as being too restrictive of energy production. Doyle beat Green Party candidate Titus North in the 2008 election 91.3 percent to 8.7 percent. He ran unopposed in the general election in 2006, in an overwhelmingly...

BONUS COLUMN! FT HOOD AND GUILTY: LIBERAL 'VICTIMS' AND THEIR ASSAULT ON AMERICA by Ann Coulter November 9, 2009 Last week, thirteen troops at Fort Hood did not survive America’s culture of victimhood, described in my book, Guilty: Liberal "Victims" and Their Assault on America. In modern America, the guilty are sanctified, while the innocent never stop paying – including with their lives, as they did at Fort Hood. Before shooting up a medical facility on that Army base, Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan reportedly shouted “Allahu Akbar.” While Hasan gave a shout-out to Allah before shooting, President Obama gave...
