When CBS’s 60 Minutes Wednesday broadcast its lead story—reported by Dan Rather and produced by Mary Mapes—on the evening of September 8, 2004, it was given the anodyne title “For the Record,” as though it constituted little more than a disinterested historical footnote. In reality, the story was a bold fabrication about President George W. Bush’s long-ago service in the Texas National Guard, intended to damage him in his campaign for reelection against John Kerry. Within hours of the broadcast, after CBS News posted online PDF copies of four memos highlighted in the segment, the story began to fall apart. The memos looked phony. By the following evening, CBS ...
The State Tried Kidnapping this Amish Girl to Force Chemo on Her, She Fled and is Now Cancer Free

Akron, OH – After fleeing from government agents who wanted to kidnap her and put her through chemotherapy, an Amish girl who once had cancer is now entirely healthy. Sarah Hershberger, 12, was being treated at Akron Childrens Hospital, a government hospital, when the staff attempted to force her through chemotherapy despite the objections of her and her parents, Andy and Anna Hershberger. In June of 2013, Sarah was receiving chemotherapy at the hospital and her parents were convinced that it was making her condition worse, and putting her at risk for many other long-term health problems. “We were pretty sure we were going to lose her if we kept doing the chemo,” Anna ...
Teen Suspended for Dealing Drugs. Oh Wait, It Was a Bag of Sugar.

If you buy cocaine in middle school, your life is not on the right track. Ditto, if you buy crack. And ditto, alas, if you buy Kool-Aid powder mixed with sugar, at least at the Akros Middle School in Akron, Ohio. As WPTV newsnet5 explains, 14-year-old Iverson Sibley was suspended for five days for making a “drug-type transaction”: After Sibley was called into the head office, it became clear what she had in a Ziploc bag wasn’t crack or cocaine, as officials initially thought, but a mixture of Kool-Aid powder and sugar. She was slapped with a five-day suspension anyway. Her mother, Erika Yarborough, feels the punishment didn’t fit the crime. Maybe because there was ...

Are liberal women really proud to have abortions?

Taking a nod from the gay pride movement, abortionists are calling on women to celebrate their abortion experiences on Twitter with the hashtag #ShoutYourAbortion. Really. The goal, according to Amelia Bonow, 30, who posted on Facebook on Sept. 19 that she had had an abortion at a Planned Parenthood clinic in Seattle last year, was to encourage women who had kept their abortions secret to speak up. “A shout is not a celebration or a value judgment; it’s the opposite of a whisper, of silence,” Ms. Bonow said in an interview. “Even women who support abortion rights have been silent, and told they were supposed to feel bad about having an abortion.” For good reason. ...

As cannabis prohibition laws crumble seemingly by the day, it’s allowing more research to be performed on this psychoactive substance that has long been a part of the human experience. The first study to analyze the effects of cannabis on driving performance found that it caused almost no impairment. The impairment that it did cause was similar to that observed under the influence of a legal alcohol limit. Researchers at the University of Iowa’s National Advanced Driving Simulator carried out the study, sponsored by National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, National Institute of Drug Abuse, and the Office of National Drug Control Policy “Once in the simulator—a ...

Little Spider Creations had been making scary creations in Denver for 24 years, but the owner of the company says legalizing recreational marijuana changed everything. Now, he's moved his company to South Carolina. Marc Brawner, the company's owner, says since Colorado legalized marijuana, too many employees were coming in high. He was firing too many people, and he made the decision to move to North Myrtle Beach, S.C. "The main reason we pulled out was because of marijuana, " Brawner said. "Marijuana got into our industry. Half of the sculptors will come in high. As soon as we'd catch it, they'd be let go. We went through 25 sculptors. Only five of [our ...

A new study warns that storm surges, or the waves caused by massive hurricanes like 2012’s Sandy, are becoming increasingly common and pose a significant risk to coastal properties and environments. We are constantly reminded that climate change will alter life on Earth as we know it, but people seem to go about their daily lives as if nothing is wrong. According to a report from the Washington Post, a new study aims to change that by bringing things a little closer to home. In the report, climates scientists warn that New York City is at a severe risk of storm-surge flooding. The risk is significantly higher than it was 1000 and even 100 years ago. The report states that the ...
Why The “War on Police” Is a Complete Sham

Believe it or not, the power of the mainstream media doesn’t just reside in their ability to lie. While they’re known to publish falsehoods on a regular basis, that’s not really their strong suit. Their propaganda reaches its highest potency when they tell the truth. All they have to do obsess over a real news story, over and over again, until they’ve convinced you that this event represents a dangerous new trend. That seems to be the case with the supposed ‘war on police’ that is all the rage in the media these days, especially on Fox News. Every time a police officer is killed, they will talk about the incident for days on end. In fact, they’ve had more ...

Rand Paul: Ted Cruz ‘Pretty Much Done For’ in Senate

Sen. Rand Paul on Tuesday said fellow Republican presidential candidate Ted. Cruz is “done for” in the Senate. “Ted has chosen to make this really personal and chosen to call people dishonest in leadership and call them names, which really goes against the decorum and also against the rules of the Senate, and as a consequence, he can’t get anything done legislatively,” Paul told Fox News Radio. “He is pretty much done for and stifled and it’s really because of personal relationships, or lack of personal relationships, and it is a problem.” Full story Click for Full Text!

Promoters reckon a series of worldwide gigs with the classic line-up could make the musicians an estimated £65million.
News of a potential reunion came from Slash’s pal John Murdy, a boss at Universal Studios theme park.
He said: “I know that Slash and Axl ...
Bill Clinton blames Republicans, media for extending wife Hillary's email controversy

Former President Bill Clinton is blaming Republicans and the media for the controversy related to wife and Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s email controversy, saying the GOP has led a “full-scale frontal assault” on her campaign. Clinton entered the race as the clear party front-runner. But her poll and favorability numbers have dropped since news broke in March that she used a private server and email accounts for official business while serving as secretary of state. “I have never seen so much expended on so little,” the former president said in an interview aired Sunday on CNN. “The other party doesn’t want to run against her.

One thing you certainly won’t hear any of the 2016 Republican presidential candidates call for is reducing defense spending. Most, if not all, of them in their speeches, policy positions, and debate appearances have called for not just an end to the “sequestration” of defense dollars but out-and-out increases. There probably won’t be any calls to make sure we’re spending the defense budget responsibly and effectively either. Ronald Reagan’s “peace through strength” is a common rallying cry, and once again, every dollar spent on defense must necessarily be a good one. Of course, every dollar spent on defense isn’t a good one. The ...
How Hillary Clinton manages a leaky scandal

While the presidential news continues to revolve around the Donald Trump & Barnum & Bailey Circus, by far the most significant political fact of the summer that just ended was the air that has been steadily leaking from the Hillary Clinton balloon. She no longer commands the support of a majority of Democrats. She’s 20 points down from her poll peak, and is now significantly trailing a 74-year-old Socialist in the first primary state of New Hampshire. The most forbidding front-runner in modern history has become just another front-runner. Yes, it’s all going according to plan — the Clinton plan. If the plan works, she’ll come down to earth slowly and then be ...
My Facebook Account has Been Stolen!

Well, this is weird. I started getting requests to my email from Facebook written in Chinese. I hardly ever use my Facebook account, so I wasn't sure what was going on, but I didn't think much about it. After several days of this, I went to my Facebook account to see what was going on. The entire account was now written in Chinese, and there were a bunch of Chinese people on there that I didn't know. Evidently some Chinese girl had hijacked my account and somehow had known what my password was. Evidently she was still using my email address to log in. I tried to change the language back to English, and somehow that was disabled, and the only language that could be displayed was ...

Donald Trump is calling the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) a "disaster" and vowing to renegotiate or break the deal if elected president. "It's a disaster," Trump told CBS's Scott Pelley in an interview airing Sunday on "60 Minutes." "We will either renegotiate it or we will break it because you know every agreement has an end. "Every agreement has to be fair. Every agreement has a defraud claim. We're being defrauded by all these countries," Trump continued. Pressed on whether he supports free trade, Trump responded, "We need fair trade, not free trade. We need fair trade it's got to be fair." Trump has ...

Three GOP senators hit for ‘selling out’ on pain-capable unborn babies

WASHINGTON, D.C., September 24, 2015 (LifeSiteNews) -- The U.S. Senate has voted down advancing the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act to debate. Prolifers are not entirely disappointed, but are noting three sell-outs among the ranks of Republicans. The majority of senators wanted to advance the bill, which would protect babies at least 20 weeks beyond fertilization (which is equivalent to 22 weeks of pregnancy — about the start of the sixth month), to a Senate floor debate. Fifty-four senators voted to move the prolife bill forward, but the Senate requires 60 votes to avoid a filibuster. Forty-two senators —40 Democrats and two Republicans— voted against advancing ...

Hillary in a corner She’s on a suicide watch as her fibs and stretchers just keep coming By THE WASHINGTON TIMES Thursday, September 24, 2015 Anot-so-funny thing is happening to Hillary Clinton on her way to the coronation. By this time she was supposed to be busy getting accustomed to the purple, looking forward to high times next summer at the Democratic National Convention in Tampa. She might have been thinking about what she would do about those carpets upstairs in the White House that she never got around to replacing when she lived there in that other century. Now she’s on a suicide watch. Will she continue to die the death of a thousand self-inflicted cuts, or will ...

Jeb Bush and Sen. Marco Rubio, are next with 10 percent and 9 ...
