Clarity On Kennedy

The editors over at National Review have captured the political life and legacy of Ted Kennedy in a well-laid-out, non-emotional piece.

Check it out; the Mainstream Media is certainly NOT going to be truthful about the late Senator.

Confusion Abounds

There are a lot of rumors floating around the Internet regarding the shortage of natural thyroid medication.

Some who have been in contact with the FDA say it is due to past problems with a heparin compound that was recalled because it contained ingredients manufactured in China and contaminated with the same melamine that became known for killing countless thousands of pets back in 2007.

Some say the shortage is due to FDA halting production until such time as the drugs can go through the FDA approval process, even though (as others say) the drugs are supposed to be grandfathered.

I sure hope someone gets with the program and puts an end to all of this. Bottom line is, a lot of us are going to get sick. If this is even a shadow of how things will be under Obamacare, we all need to be afraid.

Thank You, Defenders of Freedom

I ran across this video today at the Sister Toldjah blog; moved me to tears, and as the parent of an American Infantryman (just out of the military) I appreciate the call to express our gratitude to those who do the hard work of defending our freedoms. 'Nuf said.

I Thought I Hit The End...Then...

I was sitting in my chair this morning with the obligatory second cup of coffee. I love my morning coffee ritual; it is soothing and comforting, especially when my husband is out of town as he is today. I pondered the Internet and checked all my RSS feeds, nothing new. I looked at Google News, nothing new. I checked out Fox News, nada over there either.

Then my daughter sent me the most amazing link. I wondered how I had survived more than 15 years of Internet without seeing THIS IS WHY YOURE FAT. Be sure to go through all the pages, lots of creative stuff there.

If all that fatty, awful food grossed you out, get over it with a visit to CUTE OVERLOAD !

How Can They Do This? May I Scream Now?



RANT WARNING!

I am in utter disbelief. The companies HERE and HERE that make my thyroid medication will not be able to get it into my pharmacy until 3 months from now. Do they have any idea what is going to happen to thyroid patients all over the USA? It is outrageous that they can play with our lives and health this way.

It took me YEARS of struggle and experimentation before I finally started feeling reasonably well after contracting thyroid disease. Doctors drag their feet diagnosing it, and don't do a very good job addressing treatment.

This is why I would suggest (and I don't know if it's legal or not) that thyroid patients everywhere stockpile at least a 3-month supply AT ALL TIMES.

For more information on the problem you can read HERE. Mary Shomon has done a great job staying on top of the problem.

Seriously. Would they do this to diabetics? If a diabetic cannot get insulin they will be dead VERY QUICKLY. Is this what the brave new world of health care is coming to?

End of rant.

Death Panels? Did Someone Mention Death Panels?

Michelle Malkin has a great discussion of the death panels that are supposedly not in the healthcare bill. Check it out.

Be afraid. Be very afraid.

A Doctor Discusses the Health Care Bill

Be sure to check out this website where a doctor has given a brief, but clear-headed discussion of healthcare bill highlights.

This is the most far-reaching, freedom-destroying legislation we have ever faced in this country. If we get this jammed down our throats, our freedom is all but dead.

My relatives did not shed their blood on many foreign lands to defend the likes of this.

Operation Go Flag Yourself

The government has asked citizens to rat out their neighbors, friends, and internet places they frequent. The government wants to go after people engaging in free speech as they protest the coming healthcare legislation.

Let's save or friends the trouble and rat on ourselves. Send your confession to the government box at flag@whitehouse.gov .

Scary Mobs Coming to a Town-Hall Near You

Oh boy, the democrats are making a big deal out of the scary hooligans who are disrupting discussion on their proposed health care plan.

You can see them here if you didn't click on the post title.

There are outrageous things going on in this country that are dismantling our Constitution. Why is the outrage buried by the Main-Stream Media?
