    CDC Senior Scientist William Thompson has alleged that a 2004 study he co-authored omitted key data that would have revealed a link between autism and a commonly-required childhood vaccine, MMR (Measles, Mumps, Rubella). “I regret that my coauthors and I omitted statistically significant information in our 2004 article published in the journal Pediatrics. The omitted data suggested that African American males who received the MMR vaccine before age 36 months were at increased risk for autism,” said Thompson in a statement issued through his attorney Wednesday.

    ISNA was put on a list of unindicted co-conspirators of the Holy Land Foundation to be prosecuted at a later time. And they would have been had that not come at the end of the Bush administration. So considering all of that, you wouldn’t think an American president would be in bed with a group who is responsible for funding a terror group who wants to destroy Israel, our greatest ally and the only Western power in the Middle East. But he is. Here is a message he sent to ISNA just the other day:

    Pete Dietrich, chief nuclear officer at San Onofre, assured in a news conference this week that San Onofre is super safe. The twin reactors are encased in inner shells of steel that are 8 inches thick and outer shells of concrete that are 4 feet thick. However, there's an old saying in the news business: "If your mother tells you she loves you, check it out." I've ridden my bicycle past the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station a dozen times. In my mind's eye, there are gaps in the wall around the plant. Could a massive tsunami circle around the...

    In a recent 60 Minutes interview, Obama blamed "fat cat bankers" for causing the crisis, putting America through its "worst economic year...in decades." He went on to chide Wall Street banks for "fighting tooth and nail" the new regulations he believes would be vital in preventing future crises. A deeper examination, however, reveals that this is neither a housing crisis nor a Wall Street banking crisis. This is a monetary crisis, rooted in the lending of money created out of thin air. This is what leads to economic booms and busts.

    Queen Victoria was undoubtedly one great World leader. She had NINE children. She had a very ill son, Leopold. Leopold was a hemophiliac and was always at risk for bleeding to death.

In times when sleeping with a married woman could get you killed. Victoria was always saving him from messes. Her husband died when her youngest was only 4 and several children were under 13. She raised them just fine....

    WHICH political candidate showed extreme bad judgment in the woman he picked to have an extramarital affair with? The New Age hippie, who friends say "mooches off other people and sleeps on their couches because she doesn't believe in money," tells anyone who will listen about her fling with the good-looking guy
