    The Mystery of Global Warming's Missing Heat by Richard Harris Listen Now [3 min 57 sec] add to playlist Stuart Westmorland Oceans hold much more heat than the atmosphere can. Corbis Morning Edition, March 19, 2008 · Some 3,000 scientific robots that are plying the ocean have sent home a puzzling message. These diving instruments suggest that the oceans have not warmed up at all over the past four or five years. That could mean global warming has taken a breather. Or it could mean scientists aren't quite understanding what their robots are telling them. This is puzzling in part...

    Legal Group Pushes to Defund Planned Parenthood By Penny Starr CNSNews.com Senior Staff Writer March 07, 2008 (CNSNews.com) - The American Center for Law and Justice, a conservative organization in Washington, D.C., has launched an aggressive petition drive to end all federal funding of Planned Parenthood, the leading abortion provider in America, which receives nearly $300 million each year in taxpayer dollars. Jay Sekulow, chief counsel for the ACLJ, said part of the inspiration for the petition drive came from recent articles by Cybercast News Service on Planned Parenthood. "In part, the story about Teenwire.com created a whole new level...

    Her American flag sticker got a salute Friday, February 29, 2008 I feel compelled to tell your readers what happened to me after I left the Meijer store in Fruitport Township a short while ago. I still get goose bumps when I recall it. I have to use an electric scooter due to having Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, which affects your muscles and ligaments. As I was riding the scooter out of the store, I saw a tall man, dressed in desert camouflage, standing by the side of my old car. It was still daylight, or I may have returned to the...

    ‘Republicans for Choice’ Endorses McCain By Penny Starr CNSNews.com Senior Staff Writer February 06, 2008 (CNSNews.com) - The Republicans for Choice Political Action Committee has endorsed John McCain (R-Ariz.), saying he is the best candidate now that former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani is out of the presidential race. The Republicans for Choice PAC supports Roe v. Wade, the 1973 Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion, and also wants the Human Life Amendment removed from the plank of the Republican Party. Republicans for Choice founder and Chairwoman Ann E.W. Stone told Cybercast News Service that McCain's pro-life position wasn't an...

    Appeals Court Overturns D.C. Gun Ban Mar 09 4:10 PM US/Eastern By BRETT ZONGKER Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP) -- A federal appeals court overturned the District of Columbia's long- standing handgun ban Friday, rejecting the city's argument that the Second Amendment right to bear arms applied only to militias. In a 2-1 decision, the judges held that the activities protected by the Second Amendment "are not limited to militia service, nor is an individual's enjoyment of the right contingent" on enrollment in a militia. The ban on owning handguns went into effect in 1976. The U.S. Court of Appeals...

    I was saddened last year when Pope Benedict apologized for his comments that the early Muslims spread their false religion by violence and that this false religion's founder Mohammed was "evil." WHY DO YOU HAVE TO APOLOGIZE FOR TELLING THE TRUTH??? Islam was birthed in rebellion to the God of the Bible and in violence by this tool of satan Mohammed, and to this day is about violence and death! Need proof? Since the Pope made these comments, at least one Catholic nun has been killed and several churches have been destroyed in response to his statements. Islam IS evil!...

    GOP 'B-Team' Takes Jabs at Top Tier Candidates By Fred Lucas CNSNews.com Staff Writer March 05, 2007 (CNSNews.com) - Touting his conservative credentials, former Virginia Gov. Jim Gilmore borrows a phrase from an unlikely source: "I will represent the Republican wing of the Republican party," Gilmore said, a variation of a quote first made famous by Howard Dean, now the Democratic National Committee chairman, when he ran for his party's 2004 presidential nomination. Dean complained that other Democrats in the primary race weren't liberal enough. Now, in the early stages of the 2008 presidential contest, the top GOP presidential candidates...

    Traditional Values Coalition -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Right To Life Bill Offered By Rep. Duncan Hunter February 8, 2007 – On January 22, 2007 California Rep. Duncan Hunter introduced a bill to protect the right to life of unborn children. In a press release, he noted: “Our greatest obligation as elected leaders is to protect the American people, especially those who are incapable of protecting themselves," said Congressman Hunter. Our children, whether born or unborn, deserve the opportunity to grow and live in a society that values and respects life. “On this anniversary of the Roe v Wade decision, it is important that...

    Muslim Groups Opposed to ABC's Hiring of Radio Talk Show Host (CNSNews.com) - Three Arab and Muslim American advocacy groups are voicing their opposition to ABC's "Good Morning America" hiring talk-show host Glenn Beck, claiming he has "an obvious anti-Arab and anti-Muslim prejudice in his broadcasts." The Arab American Institute, American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, and the Muslim Public Affairs Council claim Beck made "threats and blatantly inaccurate statements" on his show. The groups sent a letter to ABC/Disney asking for a meeting to detail their concerns. They have also launched a membership action campaign urging supporters to contact ABC News over...

    Doing Jobs Republicans Won't Do By Robert Stacy McCain FrontPageMagazine.com | December 26, 2006 If defeated Republicans like Ohio Sen. Mike DeWine and Rhode Island Sen. Lincoln Chafee want to know why “Reagan Democrats” turned against them in 2006, they ought to think back to May 25. That’s the day DeWine, Chafee and 21 other Republican senators voted yes for S. 2611, the “comprehensive” immigration reform bill. The message was loud and clear: The Republican Party did not give a damn about the American worker. It was hardly surprising, then, that when Election Day rolled around, the American worker declared...

    She lives in a home filled with love and care. Rachel Lones and her mother almost died in childbirth in 1967. Oxygen deprivation at birth damaged Rachel's brain; she has never walked or talked. "A feeding tube isn't life support," said Clifford Lones, Rachel's father and the father of five older siblings. Feeding Rachel through a tube keeps her from getting pneumonia, said Lones, 75. "She eats what we're having," said Janet Lones, 72, Rachel's mother. When Janet prepares meals for the family, she adds vitamins and other nutrients just for Rachel and grinds her food in a blender. Then...

    Hi George, I just wanted to let you know that I believe we elected 55 Republicans to the Senate for a reason. If you can't stop this filibustering of Bush nominees by the Dems then you have no reason to be there. Also these activist judges have to be stopped and I think you could start by using your power to impeach a few of them as examples for failure to uphold their oath of office. Failing these two things it will be pointless for you or any other Republican groups to expect any kind of support from me. Respectfully,...
