Joe for America [Satire]

In the ongoing effort to help educate and motivate troubled youth in America, the White House today invited leaders from the social services, mental health, and educational institutions, as well as state legislatures and law enforcement organizations, for a preview of a new Federal initiative on minority youth boredom. In a Rose Garden announcement, President Barack Obama outlined a forum to promote his new “anti-complacency” program, which includes as its centerpiece an innovative technology designed to drastically reduce the amount of boredom in teenagers called: “The Barack Obama 360.”   Continue reading “White House Announces BO360 Anti-Boredom Initiative”

The Conservatives’ militarism is unrelenting.

Last month the Harper government launched a Civil Military Leadership Pilot Initiative at the University of Alberta. The program “allow[s] people to simultaneously obtain a university degree while also gaining leadership experience in the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) Reserves.” The four-year Civil Military Leadership Pilot Initiative will be “co-directed by the University of Alberta and the CAF” and the government hopes to export this “test model” to other universities.   Continue reading “Harper Promotes Canadian Militarism: Introducing University Undergraduates to a Form of Military Service on Campus”

A rape victim is suing the Commonwealth of Massachusetts for forcing her to maintain a 16-year legal relationship with her rapist, who impregnated her and is now seeking paternity rights over the child.

In 2009, 20-year-old Jamie Melendez raped a 14-year-old middle school student when she was home alone in Norwood, Mass. The girl, who is referred to as “H.T.” in court documents, said she felt threatened and intimidated by the man. As a result of the rape, she became pregnant and gave birth to a child, which forced her mother to quit her job to stay home and take care of it. Melendez pleaded guilty to the rape in 2011 and was sentenced to 16 years probation.   Continue reading “Rape victim sues Massachusetts for forcing her into relationship with attacker”

If you still remember a piece of paper called the US Constitution, you might wonder under what section of that document the government is permitted to alter the human species.

A current Pentagon plan to create a biological platform inside the human body, using it to deliver new genetic information, and thus changing what the human body is and does…well, that is about as outrageous as you can get, when it comes to the violation of permitted federal powers.   Continue reading “The US government is bankrolling the engineering of humans”

Zero Hedge – by Tyler Durden

After a self-imposed gag order by the mainstream media on any coverage of the Fukushima disaster (ostensibly the last thing the irradiated Japanese citizens needed is reading beyond the lies of their benevolent government, and TEPCO, and finding out just how bad the reality is especially since the key driver behind Abenomics is a return in confidence at all costs), the biggest nuclear catastrophe in history is once again receiving the attention it deserves.   Continue reading ““Tepco Has Lost Control” – What Is Really Happening At Fukushima In Four Charts”

More than 1,600 new employees hired by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Resources in the aftermath of Obamacare’s passage include just two described as ‘consumer safety’ officers, but 86 tasked with ‘criminal investigating’ – indicating that the agency is building an army of detectives to sleuth out violations of a law that many in Congress who supported it still find confusing.   Continue reading “Feds are building a detective squad to target consumers and companies that don’t follow Obamacare’s rules”

This week, I’ve expanded beyond “groceries” – the week to week purchases that are made with meals in mind – and made some bulk purchases that have substantially added to my food supply.  Because the last week’s shopping left some food for this week’s eating, I was able to focus more on storage food and basics than on items for immediate consumption. 65 pounds of fruit purchased from a local orchard have provided a great bounty for canning and some sale meat purchases have filled my freezer.

When I received an unexpected $50 this week, I was delighted to put it right into building my food pantry.  This little windfall allowed me to make some purchases that would not have been in the budget otherwise. I was also able to supplement my grocery budget by attending a garden swap and exchanging some home canned goods for lovely excess produce grown by local vegetable gardeners.   Continue reading “The Pantry Primer: Expanding Beyond “Groceries””

Bestiality brothels are spreading through Germany faster than ever thanks to a law that makes animal porn illegal but sex with animals legal, a livestock protection officer has warned.

Madeleine Martin told the Frankfurter Rundschau that current laws were not protecting animals from predatory zoophiles who are increasingly able to turn to bestiality as a ‘lifestyle choice’.   Continue reading “In the ‘Judeo-Christian West’–Bestiality brothels are ‘spreading through Germany’ warns campaigner as abusers turn to sex with animals as ‘lifestyle choice’”

California hasn’t collapsed like a giant Spanish-speaking Detroit yet largely because there are still small businesses that haven’t been driven into bankruptcy or out of the state, providing employment and generating revenue. But the state’s liberal rulers are working on that:   Continue reading “Court Hits California Small Businesses With Massive Retroactive Tax”

One of the central themes of my book is that that too many cops today have been conditioned to see the people they serve not as citizens with rights, but as an enemy. My argument is that this battlefield mindset is the product of a generation of politicians telling police that they’re at war with things — drugs, terrorism, crime, etc. — and have then equipped them with the uniforms, tactics, weapons, and other accoutrements of war.   Continue reading “SWAT Cop Says American Neighborhoods Are ‘Battlefields,’ Claims Cops Face Same Dangers As Soldiers In Afghanistan”
