''SAN ANTONIO - A group of South Texas parents say they are being denied their children's birth certificates. The allegation from 17 families has resulted in a lawsuit against the Texas Department of State Health Services filed by the Texas Rio Grande Legal Aide and the South Texas Civil Rights Project. TRLA is representing 19 adults from Cameron, Hidalgo and Starr counties while the TCRP is representing the 23 children, according to court documents. "It is absolutely illegal.

My little Eskie girl, Mia, is at VREC to have an MRI this afternoon. It was supposed to be for an issue with her back, but the neurologist is concerned she may have a brain tumor. Mia is blind from birth & the most amazing creature I've ever met. She is my hero. She's been right next to me for 7 years & I am just freakin out. I don't know what I would do without her.

As if life in America right now isn't disturbing enough, in the wake of the Connecticut shootings, the left is in a frenzy to disarm Americans. This has been a priority on their agenda *long* before the recent spate of troubled young men going on killing sprees. I just read a comment in response to one of over 100 DUmmy threads devoted to banning guns that sent me right over the top. "The collective will has got to be there and perhaps the deaths of these beautiful babes will be the catalyst for change." Pardon? The deaths of these beautiful...

Islamization isn't only happening in Europe. If these are our "allies", I'd sure hate to hear what our enemies have to say about us. According to Rabbi Baruch Efrati, "Jews should 'rejoice at the fact that Europe is paying for what it did to us for hundreds of years by losing its identity.' " "With the help of God, the gentiles there will adopt a healthier life with a lot of modesty and integrity, and not like the hypocritical Christianity which appears pure but is fundamentally corrupt," he explained." "even if we are in a major war with the region's...

Yesterday, I had good news. Today, I'm sorry to bring you an emetic. "A new promotional banner for the Nobel Peace Prize-winning European Union contains the old communist hammer and sickle alongside religious symbols. It was presented by the self-styled socio-economic rights group Europe4all and reportedly hangs in the European Commission. The banner’s slogan says, “We can all share the same star,” and the hammer and sickle appear four times, while the Christian cross appears only three times. British journalist and conservative Europe Parliament member Daniel Hannan spoke out against the new banner Friday morning. “For three generations, the badge...

This brightened my day. Hope it does the same for Y'All! "The controversy began when cheerleaders at Kountze High School painted the verses on their banners for football games. The Freedom From Religion Foundation complained that the signs violated the First Amendment that prohibits establishing a religion. In September, the school district told the cheerleaders not to paint any more Bible verses on banners. The cheerleaders filed a lawsuit district court. The judge allowed the cheerleaders to keep making the banners until he announced his decision." Ultimately, they won! The Associated Press contributed to this story.

"On the conference call Angie from Alabama brought up an idea to have a rally day for Newt. I added the idea to title it Newt Across America. The next big day coming up before the April 24th primaries is Tax Day on April 17th. As you know media will cover this day and will be out at the main post offices for the most part in their cities. This would be a great day to have people at the main post office with signs, passing out information and getting people to donate to Newt's campaign." So the plan is...
