  • Liberals Turning Red as Moore Exposes Hypocrisy of the Greenies

    The only thing more certain than death is that if a liberal accuses a conservative of doing something, you can be sure the liberal is doing it. For decades, conservatives have been portrayed as anti-environment knuckle-draggers that want to poison the planet because they care more about green money than a green earth. The new documentary, Planet of the Humans, produced by flaming liberal Michael Moore, provides ample evidence it's the left that's been raping planet earth all along.

    Supply Chain Shenanigans So last week I come across this story explaining that a lack of demand for liquid eggs led to Cargill coming in and killing healthy, egg producing chickens. As with many happenings blamed on this virus, it made me go.... Then yesterday, I see this story about Tyson, the country's largest meat producer, placing ads in mainstream newspapers, warning of a food supply breakdown...after assuring us there was no need to panic. So I wake this morning, grab my coffee and phone, and begin my usual Facebook scroll and happen upon this jewel: "Tyson Joins Bill Gates,...

    Then, in late 2016, Wikileaks published a number of Tom’s emails to John Podesta, which revealed the names of some of these sources. Among his advisors were two generals: one was a commander of the U.S. Air Force’s research laboratory at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and responsible for managing the Air Force’s $2.2 billion science and technology program; the other was the Special Assistant to the Commander of Air Force Space Command at Peterson Air Force Base. As devastating as this was to some, it established for those who doubted him that Tom was indeed telling the truth about his...

    Facebook, Twitter, Google's YouTube and Microsoft must act faster to tackle online hate speech or they will face laws forcing them to do so, the European Commission said on Sunday. .... This included removing or disabling access to the content if necessary, better cooperation with civil society organizations and the promotion of "counter-narratives" to hate speech.
  • I Served With James Mattis. Here's What I Learned From Him.

    America knows Gen. James Mattis as a character, Mad Dog Mattis, the font of funny quotes and Chuck Norris-caliber memes. Those of us who served with him know that he is a caring, erudite, warfighting general. We also know that there is a reason he uses the call-sign Chaos: he is a lifelong student of his profession, a devotee of maneuver warfare and Sun Tzu, the sort of guy who wants to win without fighting—to cause chaos among those he would oppose.
  • Chemotherapy Can Backfire and Boost Cancer Growth: Study

    Yahoo ^ | August 5, 2012 | AFP
    Cancer-busting chemotherapy can cause damage to healthy cells which triggers them to secrete a protein that sustains tumour growth and resistance to further treatment, a study said Sunday. Researchers in the United States made the "completely unexpected" finding while seeking to explain why cancer cells are so resilient inside the human body when they are easy to kill in the lab. They tested the effects of a type of chemotherapy on tissue collected from men with prostate cancer, and found "evidence of DNA damage" in healthy cells after treatment, the scientists wrote in Nature Medicine. http://ca.news.yahoo.com/chemotherapy-backfire-boost-cancer-growth-study-164516832.html

    telegraph ^ | aug 24 | Catherine Elsworth, Carolynne Wheeler
    The son of one of the most revered leaders of the Palestinian Islamist group Hamas has renounced his religion to move to America and become an evangelical Christian. Mosab Hassan Yousef, 30, said that his decision to abandon his Muslim faith and denounce his father's organisation had exposed his family to persecution in his home town of Ramallah and endangered his own life. But despite the cost, Mr Yousef told The Daily Telegraph that he is convinced that speaking out about the problems of Islam and the "evil" he witnessed back home would help to address the "messed-up situation" in...

    Propaganda comes in many forms. A particularly deceptive form is offered to us daily by news organizations. Politicians offer catchy words and phrases to a pliant media machine that packages them in neatly written editorials and feeds them to a voracious public. These words and phrases then become repeated mantras that are used daily to the point of wear, in the hope that the naïve masses will pick up on them and continue the spin. A few of the more memorable from the recent past: Disenfranchise – This sprang up during the election fiasco. Politicians claimed that, for numerous reasons,...
  • Reparations for the Past While Condoning Slavery in the Present? (VANITY)

    As we stand on the threshold of a long, drawn out court battle to win reparations for the ancestors of slaves, let us stop for a moment and think of those still held in the grips of the slave trade. What? You didn’t realize there is still a slave market in this modernized world we live in? Oh yes, indeed. In Africa, slavery is alive and thriving, assisted by the silence of the world community. While corrupt Arab regimes publicly speak of the evils of slavery, they silently encourage it by their inaction. The following is a portion of an...

  • No more gas hogs in LaLa Land

    No gas hogs in LaLa Land ROWLAND NETHAWAY Senior editor Californians are strutting about congratulating themselves for their new state law requiring higher automobile fuel efficiency. They believe that California's new state law will force car manufacturers to stop producing gas-guzzling vehicles responsible for global warming. The logic behind the new law requiring greater fuel efficiency from car manufacturers is a faith-based belief that the automobile industry is involved in a giant conspiracy to deny the public fuel-efficient cars. Ford, General Motors and the other car manufacturers, according to these anti-big business addicts, have the secret to 300-miles-per-gallon internal...

    Having heard Atlas Shrugged touted often on Free Republic as one of the greats in literature, I recently undertook reading all 1,000 plus pages of this “objectivist bible.” I was suprised to find that I thoroughly enjoyed this book and while I agree with much that Ayn Rand preaches (and boy, is she preachy) I find the fact that she denies that God exists quite contradictory to her reason. So from a Christian perspective, I have decided to place some of these contradictions before you, in order that I might be abused by your intellectual snobbery (grin)… IMHO… First, Rand...

    Question--Is it the same bacteria that causes all three types (inhalational, cutaneous, and intestinal) or different bacteria. What I'm getting at, is, is it possible this person in New York didn't inhale the anthrax but just exposed a cut to it, but had they inhaled it, it would have been the more potent version?
