Obama Legalizes Horse Slaughter for Human Consumption
Obama has now lifted restrictions on the slaughtering and eating of horses. Absolutely disgusting.
In a bipartisan effort, the House of Representatives and the United States Senate approved the Conference Committee report on spending bill H2112, which among other things, funds the United States Department of Agriculture. On November 18th, as the country was celebrating Thanksgiving, President Obama signed a law, allowing Americans to kill and eat horses. Essentially, one turkey was pardoned in the presence of worldwide media while in the shadows, buried under pages of fiscal regulation, millions of horses were sentenced to death.

Cain Reconsiders
Oh, no! More bad news for Cain as a new woman has now stepped forward claiming a 13-year long affair.
Ginger White from Atlanta is now claiming that her and Cain had an affair that lasted 13 years.
I'm not sure what to think, other than being disappointed. I still support Cain but, I am wondering if he will be able to overcome all these allegations. Even if they are completely false, they have already tainted his candidacy.
Cain is reported to be reconsidering.
Thoughts?
Ginger White from Atlanta is now claiming that her and Cain had an affair that lasted 13 years.
Mr. Cain denied the accusations from the Atlanta woman, Ginger White. But he acknowledged that the latest report of sexual misconduct might be more difficult to overcome, considering that the first voting is set to take place in five weeks at the Iowa caucuses. He said that he had not lost his enthusiasm to run, but suggested it was a distraction that could be difficult to recover from.Ms. White came forth in an interview with Fox 5 Atlanta.
The station said that Ms. White produced cellphone bills that included 61 phone calls or text messages to and from a number she said was for Mr. Cain’s private cellphone. When the station sent a text message to the number, Mr. Cain called back and acknowledged knowing Ms. White.Click title of post for full story.

Happy Thanksgiving
No, I did not do the headlines today. I figured I would give it a break for today. I just needed some time with friends and family and did just that.
I want to thank everyone for their continued support and friendship. I have much to be grateful for.
I am very blessed to have my love, Tim and his children in my life. They have filled a void in my life with love and acceptance.
Love,
Tuesday

Russian Anchor Flips Obama the Bird
In this clip you can clearly see Tatyana Limanova flip the bird as soon as she mentions Barack Obama.
She is then heard to say that the post "has (previously) been held by Barack Obama" before mechanically and unambiguously raising her left arm and showing the camera her raised middle finger in an offensive gesture that is sometimes known as "flipping the bird."
The channel has backed off saying she was flipping off the crew.
I found this part of the article most interesting:
REN TV has traditionally been perceived as a more liberal channel in a country where TV content is tightly controlled by the state.When are you liberals going to learn that you are a tool of the state? Just like in Russia, our main stream media is a parrot of the liberal government, sending out lies and propaganda to the general America public. USEFUL IDIOTS! That is how you are seen by politicians. Wake up and start dealing with reality.

Megyn Kelly Creates Thunderstorm Amongst Liberals
Admittedly, the title of my post is somewhat generalized. I should say Ms. Kelly has certainly stirred up some controversy amongst those that are siding with the Occupy Wallstreet movement.
Can someone please tell me what she said that was incorrect?
I wouldn't say I'm an expert but, I certainly studied chemistry. Capsaicin is the ingredient found in peppers that make them "hot." Pepper spray is a concentration of capsainoids.
Yes, it does appear that this is diluted because no one would just sit there and allow themselves to be sprayed like that if it weren't.
I have never been sprayed personally but, I was at a bar years ago where someone sprayed pepper spray in the men's restroom/washroom. The bar cleared out quickly and most of us were no where near the restroom.
In the video you can clearly see they are just sitting there doing nothing. Why are they not moving to avoid the spray?

"First of all, pepper spray — that just burns your eyes, right?" O'Reilly asks Kelly, the legal (and apparently chemical) expert. "It's like a derivative of actual pepper," she responds. "It's a food product, essentially."

Toy Appears to Say, 'Hey, crazy bitch'
"You & Me Interactive Triplets," are new baby dolls that talk but they appear to be saying something inappropriate.
You will have to click the title of this post for the link to the story and a video. On the video clip, you will get to hear for yourself that the doll seems to be saying, "Hey, crazy bitch." It may be intended to be "baby talk" but it is actually coming off as inappropriate.
Many parents have complained and are concerned about their child picking up the phrase.
The dolls are being sold at Toys R Us, who has no plans of removing the dolls from their shelves.

Kissing Benetton Ad Stirs Up Vatican
(Courtesy Unhate)
An image of Ahmed Mohamed el-Tayeb kissing the pope is featured in the latest Benetton ad that is causing quite a stir.
Benetton has since removed the image after complaints from the Vatican, who plans to take legal action.
A statement from the Vatican said the ad was “damaging to not only to dignity of the Pope and the Catholic Church but also to the feelings of believers.”Their feelings? Wow.
Other ads in the same campaign feature other world leaders.

Fired Because of a Tea Party Bracelet
Megan Geller of Crystal Lake, IL says that she was fired from her waitress job for wearing a "Don't Tread On Me" bracelet.
According to the story (click title of this post), she told Northwest Herald that a couple complained because they were offended.
Oh, the "tolerance" of the left. They are such loving, happy, and tolerant people, don't ya know?
Well, the restaurant can certainly do what they like. If that is the reason they fired her, that is a pretty lame excuse.

When a Supreme Court Judge Should Recuse Themselves
AP Photo/Susan Walsh
According to 28 USC 455, a Supreme Court justice must recuse from “any proceeding in which his impartiality might reasonably be questioned.” The law also says a justice must recuse anytime he has “expressed an opinion concerning the merits of the particular case in controversy” while he “served in governmental employment.”Emails between Elena Kagan and Harvard Law Prof. Laurence Tribe, have finally been released per freedom of information act.
