"Reciprocated Links"
Although this is a conservative blog, we have a liberal blogrolling policy. Conservatives, liberals, moderates are welcome; please no spam or porn blogs. You blogroll me, I blogroll you.
"The Roll" and "Web 2.0" are special blogrolls that are links of interest to me. They are subject to change without notice.
I’m certain some will claim the following stories from Organic Health blog are anecdotal. I, however, do not and have been suspicious of the approach to this form of flu that our alleged government has taken.
In this instance, the casualties are the unborn, as one of the categories claimed to be at high risk is pregnant mothers.
From the article:
U.S. health authorities have made pregnant women one of the highest priority groups for getting the H1N1 swine flu vaccine, but is it actually safe for pregnant women and their babies? Well, the truth is that miscarriage reports from pregnant women who have taken the H1N1 swine flu vaccine are starting to pour in from all over the nation. Vaccines and pregnancy simply do not mix safely. In fact, the package inserts for the swine flu vaccines actually say that the safety of these vaccines for pregnant women has not been established.

Do you honestly want to inject a vaccine that may contain mercury, formaldehyde, polysorbate 80 (associated with infertility), triton X100 (a strong detergent), phenoxyethanol (antifreeze) and a whole bunch of other toxic ingredients into your system when you know that your baby will absorb it too and has no defenses against most of these things?
Please read the many, many stories of complications and miscarriages in the above article, as well as the comments.
After being shellacked by cross-state rival Tennessee, Memphis fired head football coach Tommy West.
Coach West had some parting words for the nattering naybobs of negativity……
President Obama called the tea partiers “extremists” in front of Democrat House members. Rep. Earl Blumenauer of Oregon said the President asked them, “Does anybody think that the teabag, anti-government people are going to support them if they bring down health care? All it will do is confuse and dispirit” Democratic voters “and it will encourage the extremists.”
Our President believes middle-aged, middle-class, Americans who exercise their First Amendment rights are “extremists”, but warns against “jumping to conclusions” when an Islamic radical commits mass murder on a U.S. base.
From his wildly inappropriate remarks in the early aftermath of the Ft Hood terrorist attack, to his knee-jerk defense of muslim terrorists, the current occupant of the White House continues to prove that he is unsuited for the office he holds. Obama has begun to give Jimmy Carter a run for the title of “Worst President in American History.”
While the Obama administration and members of the MSM doggedly wring their hands in fear of the much-anticipated anti-muslim backlash, here is a composite of the Ft Hood dead: the victims of the most current muslim backlash.

The author of the piece at Big Hollywood states the following:
The documentary will be released on Monday, November 9th, and available as a free download at UnderstandingTheSurge.org, as a generous gift by The National Philanthropic Trust and the Ware Family Foundation. This way, everyone can hear the real story of the Surge. As the director and co-writer of this film, I hope audiences will take a look and see for themselves, there are some important lessons to be learned.
Here’s hoping our elected leaders are tuning in.
I wholly concur!
There is a time line of events from the website Understanding The Surge, as a reminder of why the surge was needed, along with the brilliant and simple counterinsurgency plan that accompanied it.
For detailed info on how events in Iraq transpired, from the re-invasion in 2003, through the insurgency, to the current status of security in Iraq, the pdf available from the Brookings Institute Iraq Index is invaluable. There are graphs showing the rise and fall of violence in Iraq, as well as many other valuable surveys and polls to illustrate how effective the surge has been, and why it is viewed by many now, and even more in the future, as an historic military accomplishment.
This is strange. He was first reported dead, but now KWTX is reporting that Malik Nidal Hasan is still alive.
FORT HOOD (November 5, 2009)— Army Maj. Malik Nadal Hasan whom Fort Hood officials identified as the soldier who opened fire Thursday afternoon on post, killing 12 and wounding 30 others, is not dead, according to the post’s commander, who earlier said the gunman was dead.
Lt. Gen. Robert Cone declined to comment on Hasan’s condition.
Hasan was reportedly taken to Scott & White Hospital in Temple.
Fort Hood ended its lockdown Thursday evening.

I guess we need to have us a fair trial then hang this bastard. Or, maybe a firing squad. I’m sure they could find volunteers.
7 12 are dead, 1220 31 injured at the Soldier’s Readiness Processing Center, Ft. Hood, Texas.
News reports of 2 shooters, one now in custody, and one at large.
Developing …
Fox News is now reporting there may be two shooters on the loose, and the possibility of terrorism as the motive. Update: The murderer has been identified as Psychiatrist, Maj Malik Nidal Hasan. Two other suspects have been questioned and released. MPs are searching for a third suspect as the Post remains on lockdown.

This is beginning to sound eerily similar to the case of Sgt Asan Akbar, whose March 2003 fragging incident in Kuwait sent shockwaves through the 101st Airborne.
How about that? The UK Telegraph is reporting a court decision described as “landmark.” Actually, it is just recognizing the obvious: The Goremons, gaiaists, and assorted fruits and nuts on the Left consider their support for Global Warming as a matter of faith. The courts follow suit …
Mr Justice Michael Burton said that “a belief in man-made climate change … is capable, if genuinely held, of being a philosophical belief for the purpose of the 2003 Religion and Belief Regulations”.
The ruling could open the door for employees to sue their companies for failing to account for their green lifestyles, such as providing recycling facilities or offering low-carbon travel.
Wonderful. This new religion even throws out a revenue stream for trial lawyers.
Frankly, I think it’s time to address the need for the Wall of Separation between government and this new religion. They are uncomfortably cozy for most of us. (h/t Pielke)

Any football fan, and current or former resident of Louisiana, knows about the famous 89 yard punt return on Halloween night, by Billy Cannon, also known as “Flyin’ Twenty,” which was the winning score in this 7-3 hard fought game in the mud.
That brief moment in time, in a tightly contested game between #1 LSU and #3 Ole Miss, is not only memorable, it is unforgettable.
I was a very young boy when this historic game was played, and as was my families custom, we were all gathered around the radio in the living room listening intently, as we did all LSU games.
A few words about Billy Cannon, he was a football hero…a legend, yet he was also a man, subject to all the frailties and misjudgments as any other. His years as a football hero ended, he began a new life as an orthodontist, served two and a half years in prison for counterfeiting, has regained his honor through much hard work and introspection, and is now living a fulfilling life.
A true hero to the family he loves, and loves him.
Before viewing the famous punt return in the following video, there is something else you should know, something I only recently found out from my LSU family members, who also sent me the ESPN link.
When viewing the following video, make note of the official running down the sideline with Billy Cannon, he was an impostor, a gate crasher wearing the striped uniform of an official. His intention wasn’t to interfere with the game, he simply couldn’t find a ticket to the sold out game.(cancel the printing option when the link opens)
Without further adieu, here is the famous Billy Cannon punt return, which I have viewed at least four hundred times.
We’d say one big beneficiary would be Sarah Palin, who jumped in to support Hoffman before supporting Hoffman was cool. Her principled stand can be expected to both benefit Palin–and enrage that group of Palin bashers whose main argument seem to be, “I hate that bitch!”.
Losers?
Bill Owens no longer can count on a split Republican/Conservative vote.
The RNC looks foolish. The Republican group lost donors and credibility over the entire episode. They poured money and manpower into the Scozzafava campaign before throwing in the towel these past few days.
Newt Gingrich might be able to continue his repeated, but weak, argument that Hoffman’s candidacy hurt the Republican Party.
Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee still look like finger-in-the-wind pols
Note to Dede: You did the right thing. It must have been a difficult decision.
I learned yesterday that my good friend’s wife may be about to face some difficult health issues. I want them both to know that they are high in my thoughts and prayers.
Certain prayers availeth much: effectual, fervent prayers of righteous men and women. Those are the ones that I covet most for my friends, Bobby and Pamela.
I humbly ask the Lord to grant them His special favor, lifting up his Countenance upon them, and bringing them Peace, as only He can.
Regulators shut nine banks Friday, including Los Angeles-based California National, as the still-weak economy produces a stream of loan defaults.
The banks were units of privately held FBOP Corp., a Chicago-based bank holding company.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation said U.S. Bank in Minneapolis agreed to assume the deposits and most of the assets of the banks.
The banks are mostly in the West and had combined assets of $19.4 billion at the end of September.
The closings boost the number of failed U.S. banks this year to 115. The nine banks closed Friday were the most the agency has shut in one day since the financial crisis began taking down banks last year. In 1989, at the height of the savings-and-loan crisis, the FDIC closed 534 banks, or about 10 a week.
Commercial real estate is the next shoe to drop.
Green shoots, anyone? Seems like yesterday we were hearing the recession was over.
The AP is reporting that Obama administration officials have been cooking the books in reporting job growth as a result of stimulus spending.
Cooking the books? I’m shocked! (not)
The AP review found some counts were more than 10 times as high as the actual number of jobs; some jobs credited to the stimulus program were counted two and sometimes more than four times; and other jobs were credited to stimulus spending when none was produced.link
The company said yesterday that its $30 dollar monthly cell phone plan includes many goodies. It will have 1,000 minutes, 1,000 texts, 30MB of mobile Web access, nationwide coverage and 411 calls at no extra charge. For these types of services we are all paying an average of $78 dollars a month. The New Walmart cell phone plans are designed to say the consumer nearly 500 dollars a year.
Another plan that Walmart will provide is for $45 dollars.
The company says that its $45 dollar cell phone plan will give the consumer the following services. It will have unlimited services such as minutes, text and mobile web. The Walmart 45 dollar plan will also have a nationwide coverage and 411 Information calls at no extra charge.
I’m currently paying for 5 cell-phone lines, contract is due to expire in another month. I’ll be able to save quite a bit by switching.
