Michael Brown

The recent story concerning the shooting of young Michael Brown in Ferguson, MO has taken off and spun into a weave of stories that contain accusations of racism and police brutality.

I have been around awhile now so when I hear the names Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton, I know to keep calm, let the facts come out, and soon we will be exposed to the outrageous lies that surround the case.

JOPLIN, Mo. – A massive tornado that tore a 6-mile path across southwestern Missouri killed at least 89 people as it slammed into the city of Joplin, ripping into a hospital, crushing cars like soda cans and leaving a forest of splintered tree trunks behind where entire neighborhoods once stood.

Prayers and positive thoughts go out to the family and friends of the victims.

Sen. Claire McCaskill --- Defends Screening and Love Pats

Pre-flight screenings were stepped up after Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, 23, of Nigeria was accused of trying to blow up a Northwest Airlines flight on Christmas Day.  (Getty Images)

Sen. Claire McCaskill of Missouri defends the TSA and its enhanced pat downs.

Sen. Claire McCaskill of Missouri said prior to Pistole's testimony that she believed TSA was in a "damned if you do, damned if you don't" situation, because people would be hopping mad at TSA if Christmas bomber Umar Farouk Adbulmutallab had succeeded. She went on to say the new advanced imaging technology--which has caused uproar because of its leave-no-secrets imaging and potential health risks--is more of a blessing than a curse.

"I'm wildly excited that I can walk through a machine instead of getting my dose of love pats," Sen. McCaskill said.
I heard about this on Savage the other night and just now found the story. I thought I'd share it with you. I can't believe she called the searching "love pats"!

My favorite solution to the problem comes from Ann Coulter via Twitter:
 
"My proposal: Make sex noises when being groped by TSA agents."

Ann also has a great column on her website concerning the issue of the TSA  pat downs. It is titled, NAPOLITANO: THE BALL’S IN MY COURT NOW. It's definitely worth the read. Check it out here on her website.

Missouri Says No to Obama

 stltoday.com

Missouri passes Prop C. This is an initiative that was placed on the ballot that allows for MO to be exempt from the part of the health care bill that requires citizens to purchase health insurance.
"It's the vote heard 'round the world," said Dwight Janson, 53, from Glendale, clad in an American flag-patterned shirt. Janson said he went to one of the first Tea Party gatherings last year and hopped on the Proposition C bandwagon because he wanted to make a difference.

Florida, Arizona, and Oklahoma also have similar initiatives that they will be voting on in November.

The question that is being brought up now is, will Obama spend our federal tax money to sue Missouri? He doesn't like anyone disagreeing with him, that's for sure. Expect to hear of a lawsuit soon. I'm betting on it coming.
