Stork Craft to Recall 2.1 Million Cribs

I urge you to read the entire article, because it contains links and contact info about the cribs. I have read three different articles and this has the most information. But, not one article states if the parts for the crib were made in China. Show of hands that that is where they came from.

From CBSNews;

The Consumer Product Safety Commission has announced the largest crib recall in United States history, involving cribs with dropdown sides, fearing they may be unsafe, even deadly.

The CPSC, in cooperation with Stork Craft Manufacturing Inc., of British Columbia, Canada, today announced the voluntary recall of more than 2.1 million Stork Craft drop-side cribs, including about 147,000 Stork Craft drop-side cribs with the Fisher-Price logo. The recall involves approximately 1,213,000 units distributed in the United States and 968,000 units distributed in Canada.

Tough U.N. Critic Tapped to Represent U.S. on Human Rights Council

Hope springs eternal. But, given the record of this, “left wing liberal, socialist,commie administration, who the hell knows?

From Fox News:

The California scholar and Obama donor tapped to be the first U.S. ambassador to the U.N. Human Rights Council is a fierce critic of the United Nations’ human rights record who some watchdogs say they hope will roll some heads on the controversial panel boycotted during the Bush administration.

Eileen Chamberlain Donahoe has called the U.N. policy and record toward human rights abuses erratic, inhumane and dysfunctional, and has said its inherently flawed charter leaves human rights violators “immunized” from international interference.

In what would be a drastic shift from current policy, she recommended in her 2006 Ph.D. dissertation that the United Nations condition a country’s sovereignty on its human rights record. In other words, she argued that human rights abuses can justify invasion.

U.N. critics are cautiously optimistic she’ll bring that hard-nosed attitude to the council and be willing to confront the despots and alleged human rights abusers represented there.

Again, one can only hope. Look, you/us, “the peeps” are not getting the “rest of the Story” “the rest of the story” is this: we elected our cockroaches and El Presidente, they appoint people to positions of power, ie; mostly bureaucrats, the bureaucrats want to keep their jobs, so what do they do to keep said jobs? Everything they can to uphold the current administrations agenda. Got it? That goes for Republicans as well as Democrats. All we need is love, no wait: let me reset my brain. What we need is less bureaucrats and more conservatives that believe in the Constitution.
Because after all, the Constitution is the Solution.

Obama Gets Delay of Fort Hood Probe

Yet again, our President is taking control over something he should not. We now live in the wonderful “Age of King Barakus Obmanaus”.

From NewsMax;

The Obama administration on Tuesday had the president’s National Security Council take control of congressional briefings on the Fort Hood killings and asked Democratic leaders to delay a probe, as top Republicans said intelligence shortcomings blamed for failing to prevent the 9/11 attacks are re-emerging.

Rep. Silvestre Reyes, chairman of the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, said that the NSC had taken over the briefings “due to the high visibility of the issues surrounding the tragic event at Fort Hood,” and that Democratic leaders agreed to postpone any congressional action on the shootings.

“This is a somewhat complicated case,” the Texas Democrat said of the Nov. 6 rampage, attributed to Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, that left 13 dead and 29 wounded on the country’s largest Army post

I do agree with them waiting. But for how long? The facts are pretty straight forward. He was a Terrorist. How he was allowed to be a Terrorist in our armed forces is the real question. So get on with it, government, find out already. But it seems that the heath care/nightmare bill is more important to this government than doing their actual constitutional duties of protecting “we the people”. Yea, got it. And bye the bye, this “political correctness” has been eroding our Republic for a very long time. And, who, and what is the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence?

CNN Considers Political Correctness as a Factor in Ft. Hood Shootings?

The Major was and is a Major “Nut Job Muslim Terrorist” period. Case, closed, everything else done. All you Left Wing Socialist, Commie Bastards get over this one.
From Newsbusters:

On Wednesday’s Situation Room, CNN’s Brian Todd actually considered that political correctness prevented earlier action against Ft. Hood shooter Nidal Hasan. Despite referencing “a senior investigative official who…said he has never heard any indication…that Hasan got any favorable treatment…before this shooting,” Todd also cited three others who were certain of the political correctness factor.

The CNN correspondent did not lead his report with any mention of the possible PC treatment the Muslim army major might have received, a graphic on-screen hinted what was to come later in the report: “Hasan’s Contacts & Behavior Examined: ‘Political correctness’ a possible concern.”

Jeb Bush’s Sons to Hold Fundraiser for Crist Challenger in Florida Senate Race

So many questions are raised by the following article. I’ll let you read it first then I will opine. Read on MacBeth.

From Fox News;

Crist and Rubio, former speaker of the Florida House of Representatives, are facing off to fill the Senate seat vacated by former Sen. Mel Martinez.

The race has emerged as one of the pivotal battlegrounds between the more grassroots-driven conservative base of the GOP, represented by Rubio, and the more moderate wing, represented by Crist. That tension most recently flared in upstate New York’s 23rd Congressional District election, in which Conservative Party candidate Doug Hoffman basically forced Republican candidate Dede Scozzafava out of the race. Hoffman ended up losing last week to Democrat Bill Owens.

Does this mean that the GOP is spliting up? God, I hope so. It is time that we not only take our country back as conservatives, but have our own party. Our elected cockroaches are a party of one. We need more representation. I say we have a Commie Party, a Conservative Party, and then the Dems/Socialist party and last but not least the Republicrats. ho ah!!!!

Giant Crack in Africa Will Become New Ocean

Ok, all of you Eco-Nazi’s out there, this is a prime example of how our earth is constantly changing. It’s natural. Mother Nature is in control, not us, puny, humans.

from Live Science:

A 35-mile rift in the desert of Ethiopia will eventually become a new ocean or sea, researchers now confirm.

The crack, 20 feet wide in spots, opened in 2005. Some geologists believed then that it would spawn a new ocean. But that view was controversial, and the rift had not been well studied.

A new study involving an international team of scientists and reported in the journal Geophysical Research Letters finds the processes creating the rift are nearly identical to what goes on at the bottom of oceans, further indication a new sea is in the region’s future.

The same rift activity is slowly parting the Red Sea, too.

CNN: Palin, Tea Party Protesters ‘Driving Moderates Out of GOP’

From Newsbusters:;

On Monday’s AC360, CNN’s Anderson Cooper forwarded the media’s new talking point about the New York 23 congressional race, that “Tea Party protesters and other conservative voices are…driving moderates out of the GOP.” Correspondent Tom Foreman continued on this note, stating that “angry conservatives…[are] forcing the party to choose between…its base and attracting more moderate Americans.”

Hey Cooper, Conservatives do not want moderate Americans in a party that stands for Conservativism! Although, the Republicrats have been chipping away at their Conservative base for years. We want them to be mooorrree Conservative, Cooper, mooorree. You libs and moderates already have a party.

Oops! In Major Turnaround Politico Confirms Possible Hoffman Surge to Lead in NY-23

Again, News people are asses now. You do not have to know facts any more. And, as a matter of fact, after the interview on CNN, with Jessie Jackson, they have taken “news” to a “new” level. Teleprompter; mode. I guess, since, our President relies on it so much, so should everyone else.

From Newsbusters;

Note to Politico: If you base a story on an outdated Daily Kos poll you could end up with egg on your face. This is pretty much what has happened in the past three days.

On Saturday your humble correspondent cited a Politico story of the day before by Josh Kraushaar in which he reported on Doug Hoffman continuing to lag behind in third place in the NY 23rd CD race:

Pelosi ‘Public Option’ Needs New Name

This is from NewsMax;

Now, a little opining from me before you read this. I want all of our Uncooperative Readers, Listeners, and Citizens to have their Uncooperative Detectors in place. Notice that, when a politician, or a “party” for that matter, does not get his/her or their way, they change the Language they are using to try to “sell” it to us, the Peeps.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says a government-sponsored public option for health care lives. But it may be going by a different name.
In an appearance at a Florida senior center Monday, the Democratic leader referred to the so-called public option as “the consumer option.” Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a Florida Democrat, appeared by Pelosi’s side and used the term “competitive option.”

Yes, Us Dumb Ass, Conservative, Clear thinking, Beer Drinking, Family Loving,God fearing,Constitutionalists, need to be told how to think. No, this is not a commie bill, no this is a “consumer Bull”, no wait, sorry, “consumer bill”. Can We Stop Consuming yet? Can We?

How the Media is attacking and is being attacked

I am going to compile stories from NewsBusters.org about the recent attacks to and from the media. I know, my readers, again, I have not been blogging for a while; I’m trying to get us set up here on the mountain for the winter. Ya know hauling food, ect… Sorry. I am in Chipmunk/Squirrel mode. He, He, He. Soooo let’s begin.

From Newsbusters;

NBC’s Brian Williams allocated a few seconds Thursday night to how a new Pew Research Center for the People & the Press survey discovered the percent of Americans who, in his words, “believe there’s solid evidence of global warming…has dropped off significantly” while “the number of people who say they don’t believe in climate change at all has doubled in that time.” (If it’s a scientific issue, what does “belief” have to do with it?)

But instead of crediting Americans for recognizing the media-fueled case global warming is a threat has been undermined by reality since global temperatures have not risen an iota since 1998, Williams attributed the change to how “in a down economy, people are less sensitive to the environment.”

Serious Dumb Ass commentator. Let’ move on to the next one.

Just when you thought the White House couldn’t possibly do anything to make their bizarre feud with the Fox News Channel an even larger spectacle – the administration manages to take it to another level. On the Oct. 22 broadcast of Fox News Channel’s “Special Report,” host Bret Baier revealed a White House pool announcement was offering Kenneth Feinberg, the “Special Master for Compensation,” better known as the White House “pay czar” for interviews – all except for one network – Fox News.

Serious Dumb Ass White House. And then there is this.

Is there no depth MSNBC’s Chris Matthews won’t sink to?
Judging from a truly disgraceful comment he made on Thursday’s “Hardball,” the answer has got to be a resounding “NO!
MATTHEWS: That’s not fair. The group in this country that most resembles the Taliban, ironically, is the religious right.

I show you, my readers, then let you decide.:)
