Healthcare Workers Just Revealed The Truth About Ebola That Obama Wants To Stay A Secret

Healthcare Workers Just Revealed The Truth About Ebola That Obama Wants To Stay A Secret: "According to the CDC, 1.7 million people are infected by healthcare related infections every year in this country, with over 99,000 dying from hospital acquired infections.
While the CDC plays lip service to how prepared they are to prevent an Ebola outbreak, the facts are far different from what’s being reported. If our nation’s hospitals can’t even prevent normal everyday infections from spreading inside their doors, what do you think will happen during an actual pandemic outbreak?"

This News Caused Glenn Beck to Shout to America: ‘Wake the Hell Up!’

This News Caused Glenn Beck to Shout to America: ‘Wake the Hell Up!’:

"Beck was especially stunned at the new that NBC was willing to do “anything” to hire admitted socialist comedian Jon Stewart of Comedy Central to host Meet the Press, NBC’s flagship long-running Sunday political talk show, which has gone straight downhill after the sad early death of legendary, iconic former host Tim Russert in 2008.
As reported on The Blaze,  Beck brought up other stories this week that are signs of a complete takeover of free speech by progressive political-correctness, including the American schools that are banning the terms “boys” and “girls” because somehow they are not terms the PC police deem as being “gender inclusive.”

Holi crapoli! The best and the brightest? We're doomed!-------VIDEO: Harvard Students Call USA Bigger Threat Than ISIS

VIDEO: Harvard Students Call USA Bigger Threat Than ISIS | The Daily Caller:
In the gem of a video below, Campus Reform drops by the campus of Harvard University to ask students: “What is a greater threat: America or ISIS?”

The students — at least the ultra-pretentious, ultra-annoying ones chosen for the clip — definitely did not disappoint.
The dude in the hipster Cholo flannel who politely blows smoke from his roll-your-own cigarette beside the interviewer’s face is The Daily Caller’s favorite.
For sure.
However, the dude double-fisted with coffees is great.
And the woman who ebulliently declares that she just learned that the United States has a large defense-spending budget is utterly fantastic.
“As a western civilization, we’re to blame for a lot of the problems that we’re facing now,” one of the students said.
“I don’t think anyone would argue that we didn’t create the problem of ISIS ourselves.”

‘Worthless, Gutless Cowards You Say I Must Convert or Die’: Two Country Singers Just Wrote a Song With a Bold Message for Terrorists | Video | TheBlaze.com:

“Dear worthless, gutless cowards you say I must convert or die.”

That’s the opening line to a new country song by country music songwriting stars Larry Gatlin and Billy Dean. It’s an unapologetic salvo aimed right at the Islamic State terrorists. And “aimed” is an even more appropriate descriptor once you hear the title of the song: “An American with a Remington.”

A mostly worthless article except the "...monetary value of delayed aging is estimated to be around $7.1 trillion over 50 years.." sophistry.------- Why slowing the aging process could save the U.S. trillions

Given that this a totally bogus study, why not show an estimated savings of $14 trillion over 100 years?
$100 trillion over ..........?
Gimme a break!
Why slowing the aging process could save the U.S. trillions | The Rundown | PBS NewsHour:
"But a lower risk of disease is not the only possible benefit that would result from further delayed aging research; there may be potential economic benefits as well.
The study suggests that the monetary value of delayed aging is estimated to be around $7.1 trillion over 50 years — a number that’s certainly hard to ignore.
But the social return could be great.
More money spent on prevention would mean less money spent on treatments after the fact.
And, of course, it would mean a healthier, more productive population."

OMG! Soccer causes cancer!!!-----How Safe Is the Artificial Turf Your Child Plays On?

How Safe Is the Artificial Turf Your Child Plays On? - NBC News.com:
"Soccer coach Amy Griffin was in a Seattle hospital visiting a young goalie who was receiving chemotherapy when a nurse said something that made the hair on Griffin’s neck stand up.
It was 2009.
Two young female goalies Griffin knew had been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma. 
Griffin, associate head coach for the University of Washington’s women’s soccer team, had started to visit the women and other athletes in local hospitals, helping them pass the time during chemo with war stories from her three decades of coaching.
That day, the nurse looked down at the woman Griffin was sitting with and said, "Don't tell me you guys are goalkeepers. 
You're the fourth goalkeeper I've hooked up this week.""

This Lesson on Islam was Bad Enough for High School, but What They Made Them Do to Elementary Kids is Outrageous!

This Lesson on Islam was Bad Enough for High School, but What They Made Them Do to Elementary Kids is Outrageous!:

"Hall’s daughter, Briana, attends Jenison Public Schools in Jenison, Michigan. The assignment, entitled “Introduction to Islam” was part of a World History class. It was designed by the Council for American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) a group with known ties to Hamas, the Muslim Brotherhood, and other terrorist organizations."

Our enemies are education our children.  Who do you think gave them this assignment?

Remember - Obama said he would stand with the Muslim's.

Board mulls in-school condom ads despite deeming breast cancer awareness bracelets ‘offensive’

Board mulls in-school condom ads despite deeming breast cancer awareness bracelets ‘offensive’ - EAGnews.org:
"EASTON, Pa. – First it was boobies, now it’s condoms.
The Easton Area School Board recently lost a three year legal battle after district administrators attempted to ban students from wearing “I ♥ Boobies” cancer awareness bracelets, and was forced to pay nearly a half million in legal fees.
Now the board is reviewing its policy on school advertising, and seem dumbfounded over whether or not to allow condom companies to advertise at the district’s schools.
At a meeting Tuesday, board members reviewed a recommended policy that would restrict lewd, vulgar, obscene, pornographic or illegal ads, but board member Matt Monahon questioned where condoms fit into the equation, LehighValleyLive.com reports.
“If I were in Trojan’s shoes I would say my product is neither lewd nor obscene nor vulgar nor pornographic,” Monahon said before suggesting the proposed policy also include a ban on ads “of a sexual nature,” according to the news site.
“I’m not trying to cause problems. I just want to make sure we’re no leaving these things open,” he said."

Top 2 at DIA got boost in compensation after millage

Top 2 at DIA got boost in compensation after millage:
"Compensation for the two top officers at the Detroit Institute of Arts climbed by double digits, including $50,000 bonuses for each, according to 2013 tax documents filed by the nonprofit.
DIA director Graham Beal's total compensation increased by 13 percent to $513,868.
Annmarie Erickson, DIA executive vice president and chief operating officer, saw her compensation increase by 36 percent in one year to $369,366.
The increases came in 2012, the same year voters in Macomb, Oakland and Wayne counties approved a $23 million millage to fund DIA operations for 10 years, and just months before the museum became embroiled in Detroit's historic bankruptcy case.
Over the past year, as creditors pushed the city to sell DIA treasures to pay its debts, an unprecedented coalition of foundations and the state of Michigan came together to pledge $816 million to shield the art from creditors and bolster Detroit employee pensions.."

Watch: Lois Lerner Just Got Served A Heap Of Her Own Medicine By A Mad Journalist And Her Neighbors:

"It appears Lois Lerner’s neighbors aren’t too fond of her either.

“You don’t feel bad you were using the government as a weapon?”, was one of the several questions asked by veteran investigative journalist Jason Mattera to former IRS official Lois Lerner in her upper middle class neighborhood of Bethesda, Maryland, located just outside Washington, D.C. Mattera also asked if she would comment on her part in “using the government as a weapon to crush political dissent.”

High court denies gay marriage appeals

High court denies gay marriage appeals | WOODTV.com:
"Two other appeals courts, in Cincinnati and San Francisco, could issue decisions any time in same-sex marriage cases.
Judges in the Cincinnati-based 6th Circuit who are weighing pro-gay marriage rulings in Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio and Tennessee, appeared more likely to rule in favor of state bans than did the 9th Circuit judges in San Francisco, who are considering Idaho and Nevada restrictions on marriage.
On Monday, Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette said he will wait until that decision comes down to weigh in on what the ruling in Washington means.
“It’s hard to tell, I think you’ll have commentators going back and forth on this as to the decision by the United States Supreme Court not to have a review at least at this time, so they’ll be back and forth on it.
But there’s a process and so now we wait for the decision of the 6th Circuit Court of appeals in Cincinnati,” Schuette said.
It takes just four of the nine justices to vote to hear a case, but it takes a majority of at least five for an eventual ruling.
Monday’s opaque order did not indicate how the justices voted on whether to hear the appeals."
