Latest News Headlines:

(CBS) — A viral infection is being blamed for more than a hundred sick kids at a school in Schererville, Ind.

CBS 2’s Brad Edwards reports, with the sterility of operation room precision, from Hoosier Hall to nurse Schmidt’s office, it’s a scrub down at Peifer Elementary School.

“It’s a little alarming just because that’s a lot of kids,” said Jennifer Howard, a parent of two kids at the school.

The calls flooded in.

“At approximately 7:20 — that we were experiencing an unusual high number of call offs — with basically the same symptoms of vomiting and diarrhea,” said Assistant Superintendent Al Gandolfi.

In all, more than 120 kids called in sick. The school, as a precaution, didn’t sell milk, but now, it’s believed it was a viral infection ailed more than 25 percent of the student body.

Howard’s kids aren’t sick, but she said, “I know our friends that live down the street her kids are home sick today and they’ve been in contact with them.”

So it’s wait and see. They’re not waiting at the school.

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

So far the false positive rate is 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

Say what you will but IMHO this stuff is coming across our now non-existent southern borders and is being sponsored by an administration that has only bad things in mind for Americans.

What is the likelihood that the infected illegals
were bused to counties that voted ... against Obola.

The Obama administration didn’t tell anyone where they located all 80k “dreamer” families so we’re left to speculate.

Goodness there’s so much illness going around:( Not even quite into the flu season yet even. nothing has me calling for mommy more than a stomach flu. I hate vomiting. Well, who doesn’t right? But when I come down with it, it doesn’t stop. I gotta go to hospital to get some IV anti-vomiting drug so that I can actually get some sleep, not to mention prevent puking my stomach lining out. Sorry TMI.

Blacks, Latinos, children, teachers.

Is it my imagination or does it seem like the most reliable DemocRAT voting blocs are the ones most likely to be harmed by DemocRAT policies?

Disease, poverty, crime, etc.

Weird.

100% likelihood. Very, ‘Alinsky’ of them. Very, ‘Cloward-Piven;’ overwhelm ALL systems so states cry to Mother Government for help...which really means CONTROL.

Gawd, I HATE these people. HATE THEM. They need to be pecked to death by chickens!

Its not your imagination, it’s their plan.

Democrats do everything they can to hurt the poor, then offer them “just enough” to get by in exchange for their votes so they can enrich/empower themselves

Consider: If the BIOWARFARE transports were planned,
given the deaths of children,
then that is planned murder ... before the fact.

Just follow the trail on where the government has sent these “CHILDREN” from south of the border, then you’ll all know where the next group will be hit by the OBAMA VIRUS. We have OBAMA viruses from south America, we have EBOLA coming in from Africa, and this government keeps insisting that OPEN BORDERS is the best thing that has happened to this country in 200 years. If you think the AIDS virus was bad, you just wait and see what these new Viruses will do to our country

Unaccompanied Alien Children Program Cost $263 Million Already This Year

http://freebeacon.com/issues/unaccompanied-alien-children-program-cost-263-million-already-this-year/

“A sweatshirt order worth $3,428 from Promotions Plus, Inc. was also ordered on Jan. 1 for children being “transported from the southwest border to Chicago and Berks, Pa.””

I bet Berks, PA school systems ishaving the same problem too.

Coincidence? I think not.

Indiana city may be next site for illegal immigrant detention center
November 21, 2013

With the passage of anti-illegal immigration laws in recent years, Indiana might be considered prime real estate for the federal government to house a detention center to process and detain illegal immigrants. That could be why federal officials are eyeing the Northwest Indiana city of Hobart, which has some residents concerned.

GEO Group, Inc., a private company that runs prison facilities, recently purchased land in Hobart, leading to speculation that the firm could be planning a detention center there.
