(Daily Mail) – The Boy Scouts of America will accept openly gay youths starting New Year’s Day, marking a historic shift that spells major changes to policies on tentmates and showers.

Yet despite their be-prepared approach, BSA leaders are rooting for the change to be a non-event, comparable to another New Year’s Day in 2000 when widespread fears of digital-clock chaos to start the new millennium proved unfounded.   Continue reading “Boy Scouts of America will officially welcome gay members on New Year’s Day as they grapple with questions about group showers and tentmates”

(Examiner) – At the Starbucks annual shareholders meeting on Wednesday, CEO Howard Schultz sent a clear message to anyone who supports traditional marriageover gay marriage: we don’t want your business. After saying Starbucks wants to “embrace diversity of all kinds,” he told a shareholder who supports traditional marriage that he should sell his shares and invest in some other company.

According to a report by Forbes, Schultz seemed a bit intolerant of any Starbucks shareholders who opposed gay marriage for moral or religious reasons. During the meeting, shareholder Tom Strobhar (who founded the Corporate Morality Action Center) pointed out that after the company voiced its support for a referendum backing gay marriage in Washington state, a boycott by traditional marriage supporters caused a drop in sales revenue. Schultz told him “You can sell your shares in Starbucks and buy shares in another company” if he did not agree with the company’s pro-gay marriage stand.   Continue reading “Starbucks CEO: If You Support Traditional Marriage, We Don’t Want Your Business”

Michael Bloomberg signed a bill Monday to regulate the use of electronic cigarettes — one of 22 bills he signed at City Hall that are the last he will sign as mayor of New York City, according to Evelyn Erskine, his deputy press secretary.

The legislation amends the Smoke-Free Air Act, which bans smoking in public places such as restaurants, bars, parks, beaches and places of employment. It now additionally prohibits the use of electronic cigarettes in all areas where smoking is prohibited.   Continue reading “Bloomberg signs his last 22 bills; one regulates e-cigarette use”

Many are starting to question the extremely hard push from many so-called self-proclaimed conservative talk show hosts regarding Mark Levin’s push for a Constitutional Convention. To many of us, it seems that the only time these talk show hosts (Limbaugh, Hannity, etc.) join together in this manner is when there is a time to bring Americans into another unconstitutional war or when it’s time to persuade Americans that  they should support another self-proclaimed “conservative” candidate that believes that the U.S. Constitution is a living document that can be altered without regard to the laws of the Constitution.   Continue reading “Mark Levin wants to Play Russian Roulette with the Constitution”

The private prison industry has become an increasingly lucrative business, as the companies running them seek to increase profits by cutting inmates’ food provisions while pressuring state governors to guarantee prisons remain 90 percent full at all times.

In recent years, for-profit prisons have grown in popularity. The number of private prisons has increased from five in 1998 to 100 by 2008. The biggest private prison owner in the U.S. is the Corrections Corporation of America. It has seen its profits increase by more than 500 percent in the past 20 years – and it’s not stopping there.   Continue reading “Private Prisons Pushing To Increase Profits”

In the U.S. a political system – formerly ruled by the people directly through elected representatives – rapidly gives way to a tinpot dictatorship and a banana republic system of governance.

Anyone of even moderate intelligence must realize that the United States throughout the last half century, and more, has by virtue of its technology, integrity, fiscal potential, and tremendous military strength – all of which comprised an unstoppable power – kept worldwide stability on a fairly even keel. During that time some pretty wise and judicious political leadership kept the elements of this power and prepared intensity reasonably intact.   Continue reading “The Other Side Of Corrupt Leadership Lies Desolation.”

Several sources have come forward to name 2014 as the year of the Global Currency Reset. 2014 could be the year wages and pensions are cut 50%. Some have worried about World War III. I have not. My greatest concern is that when, not if, the dollar collapses, that every man’s hand will be against his neighbor. If food disappears from the store shelves or men have no money to buy it, civilization will cease on the third day.

There are two conflicting plans for the Global Currency Reset. One is from what we could call the Bilderberg set. Bilderberg is an annual meeting of men and women in the West who decide what will happen over the next year. They select Presidents and Prime Ministers. They have been meeting since 1954.

The Ugly Truth

ed note–I post this not in the interests of starting a debate about abortion, but rather because there are several items in this story underscoring the nature of what we are up against.

First and foremost is the mindset of a people who are so greedy for gain that they will actually BRING SUIT for having NOT BEEN MURDERED in the womb. This in itself is pure madness and is the same kind of mindset that would be so audacious as to try and make a profit off of free air.   Continue reading “Increasing number of disabled Israeli children sue for not being aborted”

“Whether spinning from the inside out, or from the outside in, Geithner is proof the Washington-to-Wall-Street revolving door serves bankers, not the public interests. We need to weld that door shut.”

Writing in The New Yorker magazine, Andrew Huszar says we need not be surprised that the former treasury chief is cashing in on his insider knowledge and contacts. Huszar worked at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York when Geithner became president of that powerful supervisor of Wall Street firms.   Continue reading “Geithner Flips Through Own Revolving Door, Lands on a Thick Cushion of Wall Street Money”

It may have been a difficult political year for President Barack Obama, but he continues to reign as the nation’s Most Admired Man, according to the Gallup Poll. Sitting U.S. presidents have been won the most admired poll for 33 straight years now.

Like a slow-motion train wreck, the Fukushima nuclear plant disaster is still causing damage long after the world’s media has left the news story behind.

On March 11, 2011, the most powerful earthquake ever to hit Japan triggered a tsunami with waves that reached as high as 144 feet. These waves swamped the Fukushima nuclear power-plant complex, causing a resulting shutdown leading to the world’s worst nuclear incident since the 1986 Chernobyl disaster.   Continue reading “Japan Radiation Poisoning America?”

They thought the tonsil surgery would help her. She feared she’d never wake up.

Now, a 13-year-old girl once known for smiling, giggling and dropping off her sister every day at kindergarten lies motionless in a California hospital bed, hooked up to machines that doctors say are the only thing keeping her heart beating.

There have been days of prayers and protests for Jahi McMath. There was a fierce court battle as a devastated family fought to keep her on life support and doctors argued she had already died. The case drew national attention and fueled debate.   Continue reading “Court blocks hospital from disconnecting Jahi McMath from life support”

1. U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war.

2. U.S. willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war.

3. Develop the illusion that total disarmament [by] the United States would be a demonstration of moral strength.

4. Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.   Continue reading “List of Communist Goals Contained in “The Naked Communist””

Just when you think the Left can stoop no lower, they continue to astonish us all.

Such is the story of electrical union member Janet Vrostos and the vile, sickening Facebook post she sent to a wounded veteran. As reported by conservative news site Pat Dollard via BizPac Review, Air Force Sr. Airman Brian Kolfage Jr., a triple amputee and Iraq war veteran, said he received a vile message on his Facebook page from Vrotsos, saying:   Continue reading “Anti-social media: union member sends vile post to disabled veteran”
