A Mississippi pastor brought a horse in a wedding dress to stand with him outside a federal courthouse on Friday in Jackson to protest a federal judge’s ruling, currently on hold, to overturn the socially conservative state’s ban on gay marriage.

The horse, complete with white flowers tucked into its harness and a bouquet at its feet, munched grass as the pastor, Edward James of Bertha Chapel Missionary Baptist Church, spoke and waved signs at passersby.   Continue reading “Mississippi pastor trots out horse in wedding dress to protest gay marriage”

LAKEWOOD, Colo – School officials in Jefferson County, Colorado felt like they had to do something to save the school’s lunch program after a significant drop in participation last year because of new federal regulations championed by First Lady Michelle Obama.

So, they’re bribing kids to buy lunch.

Devinny Elementary School first grader Anna Ketzer was one of three students who won a brand new bicycle, 9News.com reports.   Continue reading “Colorado school bribes kids to eat Michelle O lunches”

Farts. Some find them gross, others (including myself) find them hilarious. While they can be embarrassing to some and even inappropriate at times, there’s a lot more to a booty burp than clearing rooms and timeless jokes.

The average human farts an average of 10-20 times a day. So it’s a pretty frequent bodily function, so one can’t help but wonder why they seem to have a generally negative rap. But I guess making little things like that taboo just kind of add to the fun of being alive. I mean, could you imagine a world without fart jokes? I’d rather die.   Continue reading “9 Fart-Filled Health Facts”

New York City’s rank-and-file police union is urging its members to ban Mayor Bill de Blasio from their funerals.

The Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association posted a link on its website telling members not to let de Blasio and City Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito “insult their sacrifice” should they be killed in the line of duty. The union posted a waiver officers can sign requesting the two politicians not attend their funerals due to their “consistent refusal to show police officers the support and respect they deserve.”   Continue reading “NYC Police Union Wants Mayor Banned From Funerals”

You probably thought that the worst thing your shampoo could do to you is to burn your eyes, but it turns out that your shampoo could be deadly. The Center for Environmental Health based in Oakland, California, performed a study on shampoos and soaps and found that at least 98 included a carcinogen known as cocamide diethanolamine (cocamide DEA).

Cocamide Diethanolamine (cocamide DEA), a controversial ingredient found in body care items, has landed four personal care manufacturers with a lawsuit in California.   Continue reading “Illegal Cancer-Causing Chemicals Found in Nearly 100 Shampoo Brands”

TRENTON — President Obama is scheduled to visit New Jersey Monday with an appearance at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst to thank military service members and Department of Defense civilians for their service, the White House confirmed today.

The base is amalgam of the United States Air Force’s McGuire Air Force Base, the United States Army’s Fort Dix and the United States Navy’s Naval Air Engineering Station Lakehurst, which all merged in October 2009, and is the only base of its kind in the nation. It’s home to more than 38,000 active-duty, reserve and guard service members, civilian workers and their families.   Continue reading “President Obama to visit N.J. military base Monday”

Oregon’s GMO labeling Measure 92 has gone through multiple vote-counts before an outcome could be determined. But now after a full-vote and recount, the decision is final: Oregon’s GMO labeling effort will not go forward. This is sad news from Oregon, though the fact that the “Yes” to GMO labelling campaign came so close to winning in spite of being massively outspent by the opposition is an extraordinary achievement.   Continue reading “Oregon’s GMO Labeling Measure Defeated by Monsanto’s Millions”

In this society, psychiatrists are the primary definers of mental states. Their efforts are accepted as official science.

The Psychiatric Political State is based on myths and fairy tales about distinct and separate disorders and “good treatment.”

One of the main psychiatric mantras gaining force? “Everyone at some time in their lives will experience a mental disorder.”

But an open secret has been slowly bleeding out into public consciousness for the past ten years.   Continue reading “Psychiatry: the modern priest-class”

I’m all for siblings protecting each other, but as a child Vice President Joe Biden carried the concept to the extreme, if you believe him.

“I remember coming back from Mass on Sunday,” Biden began. “Always the big treat was, we’d stop at the donut shop…We’d get donuts, and my dad would wait in the car. As I was coming out, my sister [Valerie] tugged on me and said, ‘That’s the boy who kicked me off my bicycle.’” Continue reading “Joe Biden: Sociopath”

Duggars Helped Repeal Law Banning LGBT DiscriminationYahoo News

They got their wish. The Duggar family helped get an anti-LGBT bill get passed in their hometown Fayetteville, Arkansas on Tuesday, Dec. 9. The new bill helped overturn a measure that would have prevented landlords and business owners to evict or fire people based on their gender identity. During the campaign, the Duggars also donated $10,000 to three opponents of the Ordinance 119.

Back in August, Change.org created a petition to cancel 19 Kids and Counting after Michelle Duggar allegedly asked voters to repeal the law in a recorded robocall. (The matriarch also upset members of the LGBTQ community when she and husband Jim Bob deleted photos of same-sex couples from an impromptu Facebook challenge.)   Continue reading “Duggars Helped Repeal Law Banning LGBT Discrimination”

Many in Indian Country are wary of the idea of growing and selling marijuana on tribal lands, even if it could present an economic windfall and the U.S. Department of Justice says it’s OK.

“I would really doubt tribes would be wanting to do something like that,” said Don Gentry, chairman of the Klamath Tribes in Oregon, where voters this year approved a measure to legalize recreational pot. “We have an alcohol- and drug-free policy at work. It would just not be something we would be looking for into the future.”   Continue reading “Tribes Wary of Selling Pot, Even If Feds Allow It”

Here is even more Weeper Boehner caving to Democrats and Obama as he desperately tries to ram through the $1.1 TRILLION CROmnibus bill tonight, so all the congress critters can go home for Christmas. THere is now relief in the CROmnibus bill from Michelle Obama’s failed and unpopular school lunch program.

Though school officials, nutritionists, parents, and students have decried First Lady Michelle Obama’s school lunch program, the $1 trillion CRomnibus (part “continuing resolution” and part “omnibus”) does not include relief from the unpopular meals standards after all.

Time and time again, in these pages, I’ve illustrated the fact that reality is being created for us—and that reality is false. It’s a façade.
