Federal officials have opened up an investigation into whether or not Cliven Bundy supporters damaged a protected archaeological site when they rode all-terrain vehicles through it during a weekend protest.

On Saturday, hundreds of protesters gathered near southern Utah’s Recapture Canyon, voicing their opposition to the fact that the area has been closed to recreational vehicles by the Bureau of Land Management since 2007. After the rally, dozens of people descended upon the canyon in ATVs, driving the vehicles through restricted areas.   Continue reading “Feds preparing to charge Bundy ranch supporters over Utah protest”

Joe-biden1Mashable – by Colin Daileda

Air Force Two was half an hour late getting to Miami for U.S. Vice President Joe Biden’s commencement speech at Miami Dade College on Saturday, but the former senator from Delaware managed to rile up the crowd, anyway.

His speech was part inspiration, part politics. Biden told the crowd that Americans must continue to innovate if the nation wants to retain its prominent place in the world, and that those graduating on Saturday were in a great position to drive change in a rapidly evolving world. He also called on the United States to provide citizenship to its 11 million “undocumented aliens,” saying part of what makes America great is immigrants willing to give up their lives to start fresh in the U.S.   Continue reading “Joe Biden on Undocumented Immigrants: ‘Take These People Out of the Shadows’”

My mum used to cut chicken, chop eggs and spread butter on bread on the same cutting board with the same knife and no bleach, but we didn’t seem to get food poisoning.

Our school sandwiches were wrapped in wax paper in a brown paper bag, not in ice pack coolers, but I can’t remember getting e.coli.

Almost all of us would have rather have gone swimming ion the lake or at the beach instead of a pristine pool(talk about boring)no beach closures then.

Most of the rest of the world condemns the Second Amendment, and that's an indictment of most of the rest of the worldExaminer – by Koffman

Americans are accustomed to snide criticism from abroad of America’s gun culture (National Gun Rights Examiner and Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership contributor David Codreadissects a recent example here). In many cases, gun rightsadvocates in this country should be glad of such criticism, coming as it does from places where the governments and their lapdog media can best honor us only with their vitriolic condemnation. It is praise from such creatures that would be reason for shame.   Continue reading “North Korea criticizes U.S. for insufficiently oppressive gun laws”

Breaking up with the supermarketNutritional Anarchy

Back in the beginning of your relationship, it seemed like the supermarket had so much to offer.  The produce sparkled under the fluorescent lights. The colorful packages were inviting and said all of the right things. The meat was all tidily wrapped up in plastic and styrofoam, with nary a drip in sight.

Then one day, you woke up and the honeymoon was over. Like any dysfunctional relationship, as you got to know the grocery store better, you learned that things weren’t as great as they’d seemed in the beginning. In fact, you’d been misled – the things you thought were healthy weren’t really healthy at all.  It was all a lie – most of what the store was selling you wasn’t even actually food. You realized that this relationship was hard on your wallet, it was high maintenance, and it was unhealthy.   Continue reading “How to Break Up with Your Supermarket”

Constitution Club – by Elle Dee

To all those who wave the Republican or Democrat flag, I withdraw my consent because I’ve come to the realization that democrats and republicans are a false-choice paradigm – a two–party dictatorship.
– Both support deficit spending – despite all the bluster
– Both support welfare – whether corporate, individual, or agricultural
– Both support picking winners and losers through grants, contracts, tax-breaks, etc.
– Both have attacked our civil rights in treasonous ways Continue reading “I Withdraw My Consent”
