THIS VIDEO WILL PROVIDE SCARY FACTS!!

Press Secretary Perino joined the "Dumb as a Box of Rocks" club!!

JUST IN CASE YOU MISSED IT, during a press conference, Press Secretary Dana Perino was ask a question about the Cuban Missle Crisis and Bay of Pigs. Her response was that she did not know anything about them! Where did this person who works in the office of the highest position in the United States get her education? Geez, this was taught in our required educational system. Not having gone to college, I have no idea if this is covered in the history classes at that level.

But there is absolutely no excuse for ANYONE who went to school in the United States of America to not know what the Cuban Missle Crisis/Bay of Pigs was all about. Especially if you work in the White House Administration!!! Dana Perino is a perfect example of the "No Child Left Behind". She obviously fell through the cracks! I would love to read something written by her. Bet her sentence structure and possibly her spelling are lacking as well!!

Check it out at Perino: I Didn't Know What The Cuban Missile Crisis Was Be sure to read the responses to the article. They are priceless!!

Sit up and take notice!!

This was in my local newpaper on Friday. While our firefighters are to be commended for their heroism in fighting fires, sadly what is indicated in this letter to the editor is all too true.

The majority of firemen in California make double their normal income in overtime in a year. I am not speaking out of the blue. A member of my family is a fireman, so I am fully aware of what goes down in the fire departments.

Firefighters pad pay
One of my employees has volunteered at a local foothills fire department for several years - with the hope that some day he would be accepted into the department.

He expresses a genuine passion for serving the community.

He was called in by the department Monday, to assist with the mountain fires. After arriving for duty, there was a heated interdepartmental argument to the effect that he would be taking precious overtime from the paid firefighters.

He was subsequently sent home.

With fires raging all around us it appears that our "public servants" are more concerned about padding their paychecks than about our safety.

When qualified volunteers are turned away due to self-serving interests at the taxpayers expense, it's time to seriously re-evaluate how our fire departments are organized.

- JOHN JAECKEL, Alta Loma

When you see the firemen out "passing the boot" for donations to help the widows of firemen, does it never cross your mind to wonder why? The firemen in California make good money and have great benefits. If my husband should pass away, if I took a boot to the California fire stations, do you think they would contribute to my financial welfare? Maybe a few token $$s (and by a few token, I am talking probably raking in only $100 all told).

People have put firemen up on pedestals to the point that they cannot see beyond sound reasoning.

Do not get me wrong. I appreciate all their work. But I think everyone should use their heads and face the reality that they are greedy beyond anyone's reckoning.

He's the Man, er . . . . . the idiot!!

"Childrens do learn," Bush tells school children.
Wed Sep 26, 2:03 PM ET

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Offering a grammar lesson guaranteed to make any English teacher cringe, President George W. Bush told a group of New York school kids on Wednesday: "Childrens do learn."

Bush made his latest grammatical slip-up at a made-for-TV event where he urged Congress to reauthorize the No Child Left Behind Act, the centrepiece of his education policy, as he touted a new national report card on improved test scores.

The event drew New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, Education Secretary Margaret Spellings plus teachers and about 20 fourth and fifth graders from P.S. 76.

During his first presidential campaign, Bush -- who promised to be the "education president" -- once asked: "Is our children learning?"

On Wednesday, Bush seemed to answer his own question with the same kind of grammatical twist.

"As yesterday's positive report card shows, childrens do learn when standards are high and results are measured," he said.

It is hard to hard to believe that after 8 years and countless hours spent educating this man on how to speak, he is still an idiot.

And people wonder why those against Bush feel he is not and never has been smart enough to be a leader of any country, much less the most powerful nation in the world. And they just don't get why the rest of us KNOW that he is nothing more than a puppet and it is others in the Bush Administration who is pulling the strings and feeding him what to say and do.

Foster mother tortured girl for years

From the Seattle Post-Intelligence paper comes this article:

Last updated September 24, 2007 9:09 p.m. PT
By SCOTT GUTIERREZ
P-I REPORTER

A Federal Way woman who punished her foster daughter by jabbing hypodermic needles into the girl's eyes and smashing her feet with 10-pound weights pleaded guilty Monday to assault charges and could face up to 14 years imprisonment.

Chornice Y. Kabbelliyaa, 34, a licensed foster care provider who tortured the girl for years, is scheduled for sentencing Nov. 16 at the Regional Justice Center in Kent. Kabbelliyaa took in the victim, now 16, and her brother, when the girl was 5, according to court records.

Kabbelliyaa pleaded guilty to one count of first-degree assault, plus two counts of second-degree assault. Prosecutors will pursue the longest possible prison term under sentencing guidelines, which ranges from 10 to 14 years, King County Prosecutor's Office spokesman Dan Donohoe said.

For years, Kabbelliyaa, who also goes by Lewis, was the focus of complaints from teachers, counselors and others about the girl's well-being, giving social workers several chances to remove her from the home. In a story earlier this year, The News Tribune in Tacoma revealed how Department of Social and Health Services workers often took Kabbelliyaa at her word when investigating complaints and gave her the benefit of the doubt because of the reported family connection between her and the victim. Kabbelliyaa claimed the victim also was her cousin.

The agency reviewed its own handling of the case and retrained or reassigned some workers as a result, according to the newspaper.

But, inside her home, Kabbelliyaa once beat the girl with an umbrella for handing her a mismatched pair of flip-flops. Doctors examined the victim and found she had no vision in her right eye and puncture wounds to her left eye, caused by needles used to treat Kabbelliyaa's mother's diabetes. The girl's tongue was burned because the defendant had heated forks on a stovetop to stick into the girl's mouth, court documents say.

After some beatings, Kabbelliyaa would forbid the girl from attending school until her injuries healed, court documents say.

It wasn't until January 2006 that authorities removed the girl from Kabbelliyaa's apartment. At first, Kabbelliyaa denied the girl was home, but social workers with DSHS' Division of Licensed Resources and a police officer sent to investigate noticed a blanket on the floor move. They lifted the blanket and found the victim hidden underneath, court records say.

Kabbelliyaa ran from the building, fleeing with her three biological children. She was arrested a month later in Houston by a fugitive task force under the U.S. Marshals Service. A judge determined earlier this year that Kabbelliyaa was competent to stand trial after her mental health was evaluated at Western State Hospital.

She is being held in the King County Jail with bail set at $1 million.

Where the hell was the social worker? After repeated complaints filed from people at the school the girl attended, why did the social worker continue to take the word of the foster mother (yup - lower case, this woman does not deserve the respect that comes with the capital M)?

First off, the social worker should be fired and then lose her license. Secondly, she should be brought up with charges - I am sure there are some laws on the books that relate to her negligence in this matter.

If more of these "lax" social workers had to face charges for their misdeeds, I think they would start taking their jobs more seriously.

I am fully aware that they are spread thin and have an overload of cases. But I think they should all band together - perhaps a union would be the right word - and let it be know that they will handle on the number of cases that they can and do their job correctly. Then the Department of Social Services would have to sit up and take notice that the will have to hire more people for the appropriate coverage.

Would it make sense to keep adding more and more students in a classroom to avoid having to hire more teachers? No - the teacher's union won't allow it. They have a limit as to how many students can be in a classroom. I assume that each state is different. Here in California, the max for 4th - 12th grades is 32 and K-3 is 20.

I think that there should be a maximum number of cases allowed per social worker so they would be able to do their jobs right and avoid cases such as these occuring.

Being a foster child must be an absolute nightmare.

I guess they license just any ol' body as long as they are breathing. Sure, they have to pass an inhome inspection. Anybody can pass that and then once licensed, do as they will just to be able to collect the almight $$$ without having to lift a finger to do anything for it.

My niece was a foster parent (still holds her license). She has cared for many children (she taught kindergarten students) with nothing but love and nurturing. She eventually adopted two of her foster children. Currently she has put on hold to do any more fostering until her children are a little older, as she is a single parent.

When will these States/Counties/Cities get their heads out of their backsides and see the rampant victimization of our most vunerable resources - those whose own home has been torn asunder for whatever reason and who have been left to the devices of the State/local governments to decide their fates. Unfortunately, that fate often times leads to death.

I have seen many children in foster care. They are sad, lonely, confused, desolate and often times rebellious and violent. Gee, I wonder what could have possibly led to this?

Say what??? Read it again!!!

A Dallas family has sued Australia's Virgin Mobile phone company, claiming it caused their teenage daughter grief and humiliation by plastering her photo on billboards and Web site advertisements without consent.

The family of Alison Chang says Virgin Mobile grabbed the picture from Flickr, Yahoo Inc.'s popular photo-sharing Web site, and failed to credit by name the photographer who took the photo.

Chang's photo was part of a Virgin Mobile Australia campaign called "Are You With Us Or What?" It features pictures downloaded from Flickr superimposed with the company's ad slogans.

The picture of 16-year-old Chang flashing a peace sign was taken at an April church car wash by Alison's youth counselor, who posted it that day on his Flickr page, according to Alison's brother, Damon. In the ad, Virgin Mobile printed one of its campaign slogans, "Dump your pen friend," over Alison's picture.

The ad also says "Free text virgin to virgin" at the bottom.

The experience damaged Alison's reputation and exposed her to ridicule from her peers and scrutiny from people who can now Google her, the family charged in the lawsuit.

"It's the tag line; it's derogatory," said Damon Chang, 27. "A lot of her church friends saw it."

I had to read this 3 times before I would believe what I was reading? Are these parents idiots? Or are they just greedy and have seen a chance to cash in on the American dream of suing?

The parents' actions are going to be far more damaging to that young woman they these parents think is being done by Virgin Mobile!

Unfrigginbelievable!!!

12-year-old gives birth in bathroom
A 12-year-old girl gave birth to a girl in her bathroom Wednesday before a neighbor and the baby's 16-year-old father brought the child to a Medical Center.

Police were called to the hospital about 5:30 p.m. Wednesday about the baby, according to a police news release.

Police said they were investigating the circumstances of the baby being delivered in the bathroom. Police are not releasing the names of the young parents or the address of the residence.

Police said paramedics treated the young mother at the house before she was taken to the hospital where she was later released and described as being in good condition.

"Right now both the baby and the 12-year-old fall under the umbrella of CPS (Child Protective Services)," police said.

The parents have been in a relationship for more than a year.

After the baby was treated Wednesday at the hospital, it was transferred to a hospital where on Thursday the child was listed in fair condition.

Police said they informed the young girl's parents about the baby and the circumstances surrounding the delivery.

Where the hell have her parents been? Why were they allowing this child to have a boyfriend at 11? Why was this girl not being treated as a child and as such, being allow so much freedom that this could have happened? Was she attending school? If so, her teachers did not see anything out of the ordinary (geez, a 12 year old pregnant, well it has so show somehow, don't you think?)? If she was not in school, then the parents should be charged.

Nothing was said about whether the "father" (and I say that very lightly!!) was arrested.

This is just too gall darn ridiculous that people have children but never take on the responsibility of a parent.

That baby should be taken away permanently and put up for adoption. The "mother" is too young to take care of it and her parents - well they could not take care of their 11 year old daughter, what makes anyone think they would do a better job with the baby?

And while the police are at it, I think the parents should be charged with child negligence!!!

President Bush's terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day

BUSH OPEC OR APEC
Tom Raum - September 7, 2007

SYDNEY, Australia — President Bush had a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day at the Sydney Opera House.

He'd only reached the third sentence of Friday's speech to business leaders, on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum, when he committed his first gaffe.

"Thank you for being such a fine host for the OPEC summit," Bush said to Australian Prime Minister John Howard.

Oops. That would be APEC, the annual meeting of leaders from 21 Pacific Rim nations, not OPEC, the cartel of 12 major oil producers.

Bush quickly corrected himself. "APEC summit," he said forcefully, joking that Howard had invited him to the OPEC summit next year (for the record, an impossibility, since neither Australia nor the U.S. are OPEC members).

The president's next goof went uncorrected - by him anyway. Talking about Howard's visit to Iraq last year to thank his country's soldiers serving there, Bush called them "Austrian troops."

That one was fixed for him. Though tapes of the speech clearly show Bush saying "Austrian," the official text released by the White House switched it to "Australian."

Then, speech done, Bush confidently headed out - the wrong way.

He strode away from the lectern on a path that would have sent him over a steep drop. Howard and others redirected the president to center stage, where there were steps leading down to the floor of the theater.

The event had inauspicious beginnings. Bush started 10 minutes late, so that APEC workers could hustle people out of the theater's balcony seating to fill the many empty portions of the main orchestra section below - which is most visible on camera.
Even resettled, the audience remained quiet throughout the president's remarks, applauding only when he was finished.

A logistical glitch added to the woes.

APEC security workers would not allow the members of the media who travel in Bush's motorcade to enter the Opera House along with him. This even though the journalists allowed into the president's entourage are extensively screened and guarded by the Secret Service, which has more stringent security standards than about any operation in the world. And even though they always accompany him into public events.

As a result, while Bush spoke, the traveling media cooled its heels outside the landmark Opera House, shooting pictures and watching boats in the harbor.

Is it Alzheimers or just a dumb President? I vote for the second option!! Can't you just hear the laughter ringing around the world? In the words of Natalie Maine, "I am ashamed he is our President". Now those words ring true to the core.

The "unreasonable" reasoning!

Ken Burns's upcoming PBS documentary "The War," which has weathered complaints from Latinos about their World War II contributions being represented, is now prompting responses from another group: managers of public TV stations.

The stations are concerned that four words of profanity in the 14 1/2 -hour documentary could subject them to hefty indecency fines from the Federal Communications Commission. Their worries have prompted Arlington-based PBS to take the unprecedented step of distributing two versions of "The War" for broadcast next month: Burns's original film and an FCC-friendly version from which the profanity has been removed.

Ken Burns agreed with PBS's decision to distribute two versions of "The War." Several stations, including WETA in Arlington and Maryland Public Television, say they will air both versions. WETA and MPT will carry the unedited "War" when the documentary begins its multi-night run during prime-time hours Sept. 23, and will switch to the "bleeped" version when they rebroadcast it during daytime hours the following weekend.

WHUT, operated by Howard University, will carried the scrubbed version only, a spokeswoman said.

WETA's decision is particularly notable given that the station is a co-producer of Burns's work. WETA and MPT offer the same rationale: Because children are more likely to be watching the film over the weekend, broadcasting "The War" with its profanities removed will respect community sensibilities and avert potential problems with the FCC.

Now, I have one question. What parent is going to allow their children to watch this and ONLY be concerned about the obscene words? They would have no problem allowing their children to see the obscenities of war? So, it is okay for their children to see people being killed brutally, but they have a problem with some bad words, which I am sure they have heard before, perhaps not on a regular basis?

Go figure the reasoning of some people!

This is just toooo sickening!

I cannot for the life of me figure out why any Mother would want her very young child to emulate Paris Hilton. Can you imagine what this young child will grow up to be like? Truly pathetic.

I couldn't even bring myself to categorize this under entertainment!

MORE THAN 100 ABUSED PETS FOUND IN N.J. MANSION

August 16, 2007 -- A New Jersey stockbroker and his wife maintained an animal house of horrors -- a feces-filled mansion where they kept more than 100 malnourished and neglected dogs and cats, officials said yesterday.

SPCA workers fought the foul stench of death to recover 24 animal remains and about 100 live pets during a shocking two-day operation at the home of Merrill Lynch securities broker Philip Tamis, 66, and wife Cynthia Stewart, 49, in tony Saddle River.

One dog's fur was so matted and caked in feces, rescuers couldn't figure which end was its head.

It wasn't immediately clear why the couple collected so many animals.

The couple was charged with 10 counts of animal cruelty last night. More counts were pending.

Many of the deceased animals -- two dogs, 18 cats and four unidentifiable animals -- had been dead for more than a year.

"The majority were cats, but one [set of remains] was in a liquid form of decomposition that looked like a puppy," said Frank Saracino, deputy chief of law enforcement for the Bergen County Prosecutor's Animal Cruelty Task Force. Health officials have condemned the house because a massive amount of animal waste has compromised its structural integrity.

"The wood floors are buckled from the urine and feces," said Saracino. "There's feces in every square inch of this home."

Tamis is a Merrill Lynch broker based in Paramus, and his employers benched him yesterday when they learned of the raid.

"These are disturbing allegations," said Merrill Lynch spokesman Mark Herr. "Mr. Tamis has been placed on administrative leave pending the outcome of this matter."

Tamis and Stewart appear to be up to their eyeballs in debt.

They filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in 1997 and Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2005.

When authorities first busted into their home Tuesday and rescuers carted off the animals, Stewart cried out, "They're my babies!"

While their initial intent may have been good, these are adults and as adults they should know when it is time to not take in anymore than they can handle, regardless of the size of the house. And to allow the filth is incomprehensible! I hope they spend a long time in jail.

THIS IS WHERE YOUR HARD EARNED TAX DOLLARS GO!!!

U.S. paid $1 million to ship two 19-cent washers
The U.S. Defense Department said on Thursday that a flawed system designed to rush supplies to troops in Iraq and Afghanistan let a small-parts supplier improperly collect $998,798.38 to ship two 19-cent washers.

Loopholes in the automated purchasing system have been fixed and the ill-gotten gains were being returned to the U.S. Treasury, said Army Lt. Col. Brian Maka, a Pentagon spokesman.

The owners of C&D Distributors of Lexington, South Carolina, submitted online bids to the Defense Department to supply hardware components, plumbing fixtures, electronic equipment and other items, according to court papers.

Related shipping claims were processed automatically "to streamline the resupply of items to combat troops in Iraq and Afghanistan," said a statement by Reginald Lloyd, U.S. attorney for the district of South Carolina.

Lloyd said C&D fabricated shipping costs into the hundreds of thousands of dollars, as in the case of the washers, although the value of the items purchased rarely topped $100.

Lock washers place tension against a nut after tightening, to help prevent the nut from loosening.

Maka said the Defense Criminal Investigative Service launched an investigation last September into invoices submitted to the Defense Finance and Accounting Service, or

"DFAS has put in place the internal controls necessary to make sure that something like this doesn't happen again," Maka said of the shipping fraud. "The money that they stole will be returned to the U.S. Treasury."

Charlene Corley, 47, of Lexington, South Carolina, as well as her company, C&D Distributors LLC, pleaded guilty to wire-fraud and money-laundering conspiracy charges in federal court in Columbia, South Carolina.

Darlene Wooten, Corley's twin and co-owner of C&D Distributors, committed suicide at her lake house last October after being contacted by federal investigators about the fraud, Lloyd said.

The improperly collected funds were used to buy beach houses, luxury cars, boats, jewelry and vacations among other things, prosecutors said.

Conspiracy to commit wire fraud is punishable by up to 20 years' imprisonment and a $250,000 fine. Conspiracy to commit money laundering carries up to 20 years and a fine of $500,000, or twice the value of the property involved in the laundering transactions, whichever is greater.

I have several questions regarding this, just the latest incident.

1) We have been hearing about this type of overcharging for many, many years. Why are they just now putting into place a system to make sure this does not happen again. And will this new system really stop all overcharging OR simply catch a few here and there?

2) I do not give a damn about streamlining to get products to our soldiers promptly when it comes to this type of "financial carnage". Someone in the chain should be held accountable for not pulling this and not sending it on to the department to submit payment to these crooks.

Meanwhile, there are starving children right here in the United States who could have benefitted from our tax dollars to put food in their mouths.

Odds are, these crooks will serve a minimum sentence that is no skin off their nose. Will they have to repay the government for their "error"? Probably not. So, crime will have paid.

Open mouth - Insert foot - part 2

According to an editorial published Wednesday in the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle, Rep. Randy Kuhl (R-N.Y.) - a man alleged to have once pulled two shotguns on his then wife at a 1994 dinner party - "has thought of arming himself, given the perception -- not accurate, he said -- that he is an inflexible supporter of President Bush's approach to the Iraq war."

The editorial board's blog quoted Kuhl as saying he has "thought about packing" in light of the perceived security threat to himself and his offices.

A spokeswoman for Kuhl confirmed that Iraq war protestors targeted the congressman's offices in Bath and Fairport, New York, on Monday of this week but that Kuhl wasn't working at either office that day.

And while she acknowledged that the protests have made her boss rethink security, she disputed that Kuhl is seriously considering arming himself. "That comment was taken way out of context," the spokeswoman, Meghan Tisinger, told the Sleuth.

She said when Congressman Kuhl told the Democrat and Chronicle editorial board that he had "thought about packing" - he was just joking. (Get a sense of humor, people!) "It was one of those sarcastic, offhanded comments," she said.

Plus, Tisinger explained, Kuhl was joking about arming himself in the context of increased security on Capitol Hill in light of the approaching anniversary of 9/11.

Will people never learn? Think, think, think before opening your mouth

Open mouth - Insert foot

"We finally cleaned up public housing in New Orleans. We couldn't do it, but God did."

-A Louisiana State legislator quoted in the Wall Street Journal in Hurricane Katrina's immediate aftermath.

Whoever that legislator is has no business being in office with an attitude/opinion like that!

In every city, be it large or small, there will always be the poor families in need of housing.

This statement just screams "good, now New Orleans can start anew with the higher middle income and wealthy families".

But, no city can exist without the lower income families to do the menial jobs such as busboy at restaurants and working at fast food restaurants. And the lower middle income families provide services such as trash pickup, street sweeping, delivery mail, and more.

Think about what you say before you open your mouth, people! Cause what you say could well come back to bite you in your rear end!

How many children are too many children - part 2

Couple gives birth to 17th child
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — It's a girl - again - for the Duggars. Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar welcomed their 17th child and seventh daughter, into the world Thursday.

Jennifer Danielle was born at 10:01 a.m. at Saint Mary's Hospital in Rogers, Ark., the Duggars said in an interview. Jennifer weighed 8 pounds, 8 ounces and arrived five days after Michelle's due date.

Less than 30 minutes after giving birth, the Duggars already were talking of having more.

"We'd love to have more," Michelle said, adding that the girls are outnumbered seven to 10 in the family. "We love the ruffles and lace."

Jennifer joins the fast-growing Duggar brood, who live in Tontitown in a 7,000-square-foot home. All the children - whose names start with the letter J - are home-schooled.

The oldest is 19 and the youngest, before Jennifer, is almost 2 years old.

"We are just so grateful to God for another gift from him," said Jim Bob Duggar, 42, a former state representative. "We are just so thankful to him that everything went just very well."

Jennifer joins siblings Joshua, 19; John David, 17; Janna, 17; Jill, 16; Jessa, 14; Jinger, 13; Joseph, 12; Josiah, 11; Joy-Anna, 9; Jedidiah, 8; Jeremiah, 8; Jason 7; James 6; Justin, 4; Jackson, 3; Johannah, almost 2.

The family includes two sets of twins.

The Duggars have been featured on several programs on cable's Discovery Health Network. The next special, the Duggar Family Album, is scheduled to air next month, Jim Bob Duggar said.

Among the "fun facts" listed on Discovery Health's Web page devoted to the Duggars: A baby has been born in every month except June; the Duggars have gone through an estimated 90,000 diapers, and Michelle, 40, has been pregnant for 126 months - or 10.5 years - of her life.

The father was once a member of the Arkansas House of Representative. Nothing indicates what he does for a living currently. Now, unless they either come from wealth or he has a really, really good paying job, then they have more children than they can afford to support.

Something tells me that they get a lot of freebies because of the uniqueness of having so many children. I am sure that the Discovery Channel pays them for the specials.

OK, so think about it. There are couples out there that are really having a hard time making ends meet, only have one or two children because that is all they can afford. But nobody gives them any freebies. Something is not right here - providing perks to couples that have lots of children.

These couples who accept these freebies are no better than those women who keep having lots of children and living off of the welfare money they get for these children.

Now, another aspect to be looked at. With that many children and her home-schoolng the children, please tell me who is really raising these children? I am sure they are relying on the older children to do a lot of the parenting. Why? These older children did not give birth to their younger siblings. They did not sign up for the responsibility of raising a child - at least not yet - not until they have their own children.

How can either of the parents give enough quality time to each child? It is not possible.

OK, there has to be a tremendous amount of cooking to be done, clean and laundry to be done. This woman who seems to be always pregnant, is giving her children more than their share of the responsibility for doing these chores.

I believe in giving children responsibility around the house. This helps them to grow up to be responsible adults. But to give all your children the responsibilities so you can be the teacher and constanting bringing more babies into the family is beyond the realm of where your resposibility really lies as a parent.

By the time these children are fully adults and ready for their own family, they will pretty much feel like they have already raised a family.

I have seen it happen time and again in large families, that the eldest children were left with the parenting of their siblings and they may marry, but do not want children of their own - after all, they already raised children.

The Juice Gushes on Web Stream

07/31/07 10:08 AM
How are things going for O.J. Simpson? Ask him yourself tonight at 6 p.m., when the Juice sits down and answers viewer questions for a televised online interview with MN1.com, a Dallas-area IPTV network primarily devoted to covering stocks that trade for under $5.

MN1.com spokesman Mike Gould tells Radar that Simpson sought the network out about the possibility of an interview earlier this year—he was so excited by the online operation's "purity of format" that he asked not to be compensated. "It's an exciting enough opportunity for O.J. that he doesn't want money," says Gould. While the network, he says, is full of "O.J. agnostics," he also promises "Everything comes up during the interview—his football career, the trial, the If I Did It book," a bold claim for an interview that hasn't happened yet.

The first half of the interview is scheduled to be hosted by MN1.com personality Kate Delaney. In the second half, the network plans to have Simpson respond to questions from penny-trading Texans with high-speed Internet.

"We're no stranger to high-profile interviews," Gould adds confidently. "I mean, after all, MN1.com has interviewed almost all of the top club DJ's in Dallas and Austin."

Who cares! He is sooo in need of media attention he is doing prostituting himself out for free. Wonder how many people will tune in? Wonder if people will protest loud and long against the station doing the interview, like we protested to Fox networks when they were going to do the interview/promo for his book? I certainly hope so!!

3 Bodies Found at Home With Dead Infant

OCEAN CITY, Md. (AP) -- Investigators found three tiny bodies in and near the home of a woman who was charged last week with killing her newborn child, police said Monday.

None of the bodies was full-term, said Ocean City Police spokesman Barry Neeb. He said it would take testing to determine the causes of their deaths and if they were all related to Christy Freeman.

Freeman, 37, came to authorities' attention on Thursday while she was hospitalized. Medical personnel called police after determining she had been pregnant but could not account for the child.

After interviewing her, police searched Freeman's home and found the body of an infant wrapped in a blanket. Freeman was charged with first-degree murder, second-degree murder and manslaughter under a 2005 law allowing charges for the death of a fetus that can live outside the womb.

Officers continued searching the home and property during the weekend and found the other three small bodies in the house and nearby, Neeb said.

Police said Freeman's four other children were safe and with her longtime boyfriend.

Freeman, owner of Classic Taxi in Ocean City, was to have a bond hearing later Monday.

I cannot believe that this woman has not heard of birth control. One dead infant and 3 dead fetuses and 4 live children. And she is 37 years of age. My gawd - clinics give free birth control pills!

A Pedophile Has Found Another Way Around the Law!!

LOS ANGELES, July 27 — The search for the self-described pedophile in the large-brimmed black hat commences nearly every day here, with findings posted on chat rooms frequented by mothers.

Jack McClellan, who calls himself a pedophile, has had Web sites in Seattle and Los Angeles detailing how and where he trolls for children.

He was spotted at a fair in Santa Clarita. He recently emerged from the Social Security office on Olympic Boulevard. He tapped away on a computer at the library in Mar Vista. Warnings have gone out. Signs have been posted.

And yet unlike convicted sex offenders, who are required to stay away from places that cater to children, in this case the police can do next to nothing, because this man, Jack McClellan, who has had Web sites detailing how and where he likes to troll for children, appears to be doing nothing illegal.

Judge shoots down State/Local Government enforcing illegal immigration laws!!

A federal judge's ruling that a Pennsylvania city may not enforce its tough anti-illegal immigration law could decide the fate of copycat measures adopted in other communities around the U.S.

U.S. District Judge James Munley found fault with just about every aspect of Hazleton's Illegal Immigration Relief Act, which he struck down Thursday in a 206-page opinion that declared states and municipalities have no business trying to stem illegal immigration.

Munley's decision applies only to Hazleton, but legal experts say it could lead to similar rulings elsewhere. The judge wrote: “We cannot say clearly enough that persons who enter this country without legal authorization are not stripped immediately of all their rights because of this single illegal act.”

The decision is a road map for judges "inclined to find in favor of immigrant advocates," said Peter Spiro, who teaches immigration law at Temple University.

"This is a big victory for immigrants rights advocates ... in the first major case addressing one of these ordinances," he said. "They could hardly have asked for more."

I really don't know what to say! Well, lets see. The Federal Government fails to enforce the laws, so the state and local government steps up to the plate. Then some dumbass Judge shoots them down?

Good gawd almighty! With every day that passes, I lose more and more faith in our Federal Government and its Judicial system

There needs to be an uproar of voices to get this judge out of office!

As for the Mayor - I would vote for him any day of the week!

Wake up - Gang activity isn't just in your town!

Evidence of gang culture and gang activity in the military is increasing so much an FBI report calls it "a threat to law enforcement and national security." The signs are chilling: Marines in gang attire on Paris Island; paratroopers flashing gang hand signs at a nightclub near Ft. Bragg; infantrymen showing-off gang tattoos at Ft. Hood.

Gang activity clues are appearing in Iraq and Afghanistan, too. Gang graffiti is sprayed on blast walls – even on Humvees. Kilroy – the doodle made famous by U.S. soldiers in World War II – is here, but so is the star emblem of the Gangster Disciples.

Military regulations disqualify members of hate groups from enlisting, but there is no specific ban on members of street gangs.
