Judge’s Decision Sending Justina Pelletier to Foster Care Over Parents’ Objection Upsets Pro-Lifers Justina Pelletier is at the center of a legal battle between the Pelletier family and Boston Children’s Hospital over custody and proper medical treatment. A judge has sentenced the Connecticut teenager, who has been caught in a yearlong custody fight between her parents and Massachusetts child protection officials, o a new foster care program.
The ruling triggered an anguished response from her parents when it was announced by a juvenile court judge Monday and pro-life advocates are also up in arms. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/02/25/judges-decision-sending-justina-pelletier-to-foster-care-over-parents-objection-upsets-pro-lifers/

This according to a blockbuster report per the Center for Security Policy

Discrimination Is in the Eye of the E. Holder

There are few people less qualified to give career advice than Attorney General Eric Holder. But that didn't stop the first sitting Cabinet member ever to be held in contempt of Congress from delivering a lesson in lawlessness to the states. On the eve of the National Association of Attorneys General conference, Holder -- a five-year case study in "what not to do" -- felt compelled to give the AGs some unsolicited advice in one area he knows plenty about: dereliction of duty.
In an interview with the New York Times, Holder, the author of some of the President's most scandalous moments, encouraged his state counterparts to take a page from his recklessness. Calling the same-sex "marriage" debate an "exceptional circumstance," Holder warned that state leaders "must be suspicious of legal classifications based solely on sexual orientation." In general, he pointed out, "making the determination [on whether to defend your state's constitution] is something that's appropriate for an attorney general to do."

  Conservatives,

Yesterday was a whirlwind of activity and media appearances following a shocking day outside a Massachusetts court. Sadly, I must report that I saw a side of a massive state bureaucracy that was altogether alarming.
 
The Pelletier family’s medical and legal situation is far worse than those of us attempting to help could have anticipated.

A family is being unjustly ripped apart at the hand of an overreaching, arrogant state bureaucracy, the Massachusetts Department of Children and Families (DCF).  

The horrific result:

Buried beneath the avalanche of recent news reports about the latest Obamacare-mandated funding cuts to the Medicare Advantage (MA) program is a related but far more disturbing story – the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has taken a major step toward rationing medications to the elderly. Since passage of the Medicare Modernization Act of 2003, seniors enrolled in the Medicare prescription drug program have been guaranteed access to “all or substantially all” of the drugs in several classes of pharmaceuticals. President Obama’s health care bureaucrats, however, have proposed removing three of these classes from the “protected” list.

Louisiana Republican Gov. Bobby Jindal lashed out first, saying if Obama were serious about growing the economy he would approve the Keystone XL pipeline project and take other executive actions. Jindal said, Obama "seems to be waving the white flag of surrender" on the economy by focusing on raising the federal minimum wage to $10.10, up from $7.25. "The Obama economy is now the minimum wage economy. I think we can do better than that," Jindal said.

Dear Fellow Patriot,

This plot to reduce our troop size and strength is being carried out at a time when communist China is stating that war with America is "inevitable."
This places our entire country in danger by weakening us in the face of a rising threat.

ObamaCare: Bad For Small Businesses, Worse For Their Employees

The White House can’t say whether its health care law is working, but thanks to THIS REPORT Speaker Boehner requested, we now have a clearer picture of how much the law will hurt the nation’s small businesses and the people who work for them:
The Washington Post
Obama administration: Health law’s new rules will increase costs for most small businesses
“Nearly two-thirds of small businesses that currently offer health insurance to their workers will pay more for coverage as a result of new rules in the health care law, as will millions of small-business employees and their family members, according to new estimates released by the Obama administration. … If accurate, it would continue a steep climb in insurance costs for many small businesses. … In terms of its expected economic footprint, it has been a rough few weeks for the president’s signature law, commonly called ObamaCare.”

MINNESOTA - GET RID OF FRANKEN TODAY! HE IS YOUR CANCER!


My Conservative Friend,

Are you willing to donate $5 to defeat Al Franken today?

Al Franken ExposedAccording to a recent poll, Al Franken's approval rating amongst Minnesotans is a dismal 39%... second only to Barack Obama whose approval rating is down to 38%.

This is a big deal. In short, it means Franken is extremely vulnerable.

And, as you may recall, Al Franken squeaked into office by only 312 votes the first time around --- after a bitter eight month recount battle (one in which many still believe the votes of hundreds of felons were counted).

That means that when he was sworn in --- seven months after the rest of the Senate --- Al Franken became the all-important 60th vote for the Democrats. And, as you and I know all too well, Franken used his 60th and deciding vote to force ObamaCare on our country.

IMPEACHMENT OF OBAMA LONG OVERDUE


LATEST HEADLINE: "Impeachment: The obvious answer to Obama dictatorship" -- Select Here to DEMAND Congress IMPEACH OBAMA!

ALERT: Former Congressman Tom Tancredo, who's now running for Governor of Colorado, has a message for the people of America: "Impeachment is the obvious answer to an Obama dictatorship." In a recent article at WorldNet Daily, Tancredo wrote:


"The case for impeaching and removing President Obama grows stronger each week, as the president continues to violate the constitutional limits on his executive powers. His latest move in delaying the enforcement of yet another part of Obamacare should be article 20 in a bill of indictable offenses against the Constitution. Citizens of all persuasions and parties should take encouragement in the fact that impeachment is fast becoming a respectable topic of debate even in the mainstream media... His actions in defiance of constitutional limits have become so numerous and brazen that chronicling them has become a cottage industry. The use of executive orders to circumvent Congress can no longer be called an occasional breach of faith. His abuse of power has become so frequent and brazen that it is becoming recognized as the trademark of his presidency.
