Second officer tells of downing Fort Hood shooter | StarNewsOnline.com | Star News | Wilmington, NC

A much smaller story has emerged concerning the shooting of Terrorist Hasan at Fort Hood. Officer Kimberly Munley was initially given credit for downing the gunman, but a new story states that police Sgt Mark Todd fired shots which brought Hasan down.

This is not quite so dramatic as the earlier story.

Seems the media has gotten very little straight about events at Ft Hood, including the initial inaccurate reports that Maj. Hasan had been killed.

Guidance for the USCCB, boycott style.

The collection plates are coming out this month for the Campaign for Human Development, brought to you by the US Conference of Catholic Bishops.

The U.S. Catholic Bishops have been out of their element for years, in understanding what economic means should be employed to achieve charitable ends.  Along the way they have stumbled in deciding to whom they should grant Catholic charitable resources.

Charity is an individual choice and act. Organization of the charitable acts is fine in theory, but has often become subversion.

It is not charity to forcibly take the money from one person to give it to another.  Government programs to redistribute wealth are not charity.   Therefore, the political activist groups which support and lobby for such forcible redistribution should not be funded by the USCCB. 

Our confused leftie-catholics need also to attend to the fact that the Bishops have been diverting charitable dollars to decidedly anti- and un-catholic activities. 

The USCCB defunded ACORN not because of its subversive and immoral activities, but because of embezzlement within the organization.  A list of recently defunded and organizations which still need defunding exists at the American Life League site. 

Some people find the diversion of Catholic charity towards activities which are against Church Teaching to be “sophisticated political philosophy”.  The rest of us see it as fraudulently immoral.
Those of us who have not lost our minds await further reformation of the USCCB to become more adherent to Church teaching.

Our moral “leaders” should be making personal efforts to adhere to the precepts of their stated religion.

Pharmer will be diverting contributions which could  have gone to the Campaign for Human Development to a favorite, local pro-life charity.

Bogus claim: H1N1 has killed 3,900 Americans: CDC | Reuters

The CDC, which previously claimed not to be counting H1N1 Influenza A cases is now claiming to know how many people have been killed by this particular virus, using their collection of non-specific tests and their as yet, unapproved tests for swine flu.
From April to October, they generate a number from ‘nothingness’ of3600. This is supposed to be an unprecedented number of flu deaths despite previous claims that an average of36 thousand people die per year of the seasonal flu.

Perhaps people are not expected to be able to understand this stuff, due to the state of science education in the U.S.

Those who should understand a bit more than average about the Flu continue to resist  the attempts to make vaccines mandatory for health care workers.

Muslims have EXTRA freedom of speech at work, much more so than those of other religons. We have discovered in the past week that it is OK, in the work place to support blowing up infidels, but it is NOT OK to state that your religion forbids homosexual activity.

We know this, because people are fired for the latter, but Promoted after doing the former.
