WEST ALLIS, Wis. – Sarah Palin rallied thousands of abortion opponents Friday night with a a stark warning that the same philosophy that allows abortion rights could soon be invoked to allow the government to cut off health care for the elderly or children with special needs.
Speaking to a fund-raising banquet of Wisconsin Right to Life, the former Alaska governor and 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee asserted that if policy-makers don’t believe a child in the womb is valuable, then “perhaps the same mind-set applies to other persons.”
“What may they feel about an elderly person who doesn’t have a whole lot of productive years left,” Palin asked an audience of about 5,000 who paid $30 each to hear her speak in an airplane hangar-like exhibition hall at the Wisconsin state fairgrounds just outside of Milwaukee.

Warning, this is a very long article, but I felt like I had to share it. I had no idea nor had ever heard of this problem. I don't think I have words...
Conformity is now the new dissent
Conformity is now the new dissent
By Mark Steyn
DISSENT IS THE HIGHEST FORM OF PATRIOTI… No, wait, that bumper sticker expired January 20th. Under the stimulus bill, there's a new $1.3 trillion bills-for-bumpers program whereby, if you peel off old slogans now recognized as environmentally harmful ("QUESTION AUTHORITY"), you can trade them in for a new "CELEBRATE CONFORMITY" sticker, complete with a holographic image of President Obama that never takes his eyes off you.
"The right-wing extremist Republican base is back!"
Dear Mr. President
Cornyn to Obama: Stop With the Enemies Lists The White House call for people to inform on anyone spreading "disinformation about health insurance reform" didn't sit well with a lot of people -- Obama isn't running a political campaign anymore, he's supposed to be running the country (and in the event even those who spread video clips of the president making statements on health care reform that are now impolitic have been targeted by the White House). Texas Senator John Cornyn has written a letter to the president politely asking if he could please put an end to the creepiness: “I am not aware of any precedent for a President asking American citizens to report their fellow citizens to the White House for pure political speech that is deemed ‘fishy’ or otherwise inimical to the White House’s political interests,” Sen. Cornyn wrote.Citizen Informants - a White House Request
Citizen Informants By Bart Willruth In 1930's Germany, the new socialist government of Adolf Hitler (NAZI National Socialist Workers' Party) began indoctrinating children in the quasi-military organization, the Hitler Youth, to inform on their parents should they overhear discussions subversive to the policies of the Leader. As the noose was tightened, local community organizers were appointed to watch their neighbors and were told to report subversive comments to the bureaucrats above them. Neighbors informed on neighbors, some for reasons of patriotism or loyalty, some from fear.White House asks citizens to inform on health care opposition
This is from the White House website: http://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/Facts-Are-Stubborn-Things/ There is a lot of disinformation about health insurance reform out there, spanning from control of personal finances to end of life care.

Stylishly Charitable
Taking a leaf out of FabSugar UK's book, today, I decided to team The Beatles version of Stella McCartney's Comic Relief T-Shirts with a pair of shorts. I think that wearing a loose t-shirt like this one is great way to wear shorts during the day, as it lends a casual element to the look.
As I mentioned with my Sleek and Summery look, I think long necklaces are great for breaking up a high-neckline, something especially important if you are large chested like me.
More restaurants offering gluten-free menus
More restaurants offering gluten-free menus Increasing awareness of people with incurable wheat allergies AP News NEW YORK - As a longtime chef in four-star restaurants, Joseph Pace had seen appreciative customers before. But nothing prepared him for the day that a well-dressed man walked into his Greenwich Village restaurant, ordered a pizza and a beer, and broke into tears. That man, Pace recalls, had been diagnosed ten years earlier with celiac disease — an incurable affliction that makes the body unable to take anything containing gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley and rye.
