ACORN, SEIU and CORRUPTION
----------------------------------------------------------------
SEIU Union Boss to Boy Scout: How Dare You Serve Your Community! Last week at a city council meeting in Allentown, Pa., a top official of the local Service Employees International Union chapter ranted about 17-year-old Scout Kevin Anderson's park cleanup work. Anderson devoted some 200 hours to the job in order to earn an Eagle Scout badge. He picked up trash and helped clear a 1,000-foot walking path with fellow members of Boy Scouts Troop 301 of Center Valley.

GAO: Obama's $787 Billion Stimulus Creating More Confusion than Jobs The Government Accountability Office found that almost 4,000 designated recipients who have not yet received stimulus funding reported creating or saving more than 58,000 jobs, according to The Washington Post. Another 9,200 recipients reported no job creation, despite receiving a total of $965 million. The findings demonstrate the difficulty of counting jobs the stimulus might have created.

President Obama’s Fictional Job Factory What’s the easiest way for the President to claim credit for jobs “created or saved” by the $787 billion federal stimulus bill? Just make the jobs up and promote them on a taxpayer-funded website using bogus numbers and non-existent Congressional districts.

EDUCATION:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
More sex ed, lies, and modern culture Listen up, parents. The goal of sex education is not to prevent unwanted pregnancies and diseases. The goal is to promote sexual freedom. And don't expect school sex ed programs to back up parents when it comes to moral and religious teachings. Grossman writes that many sex ed instructors encourage students "to question what they've been taught at home and at church," and to develop their own views on the subject of sex. It not only undermines parental authority, it has the potential to promote dangerous behavior in an age group already eager and willing to break rules.

A Thanksgiving Lesson The Pilgrims who arrived at Plymouth Rock in 1620 were incredibly brave and hardy souls. They were motivated by the noblest of virtues. They vowed, each and every one, to be as selfless as possible—to always put the needs of the group first. They agreed to own everything in common and to share everything equally.
And their naïve piety almost killed the entire colony.

U.N. Using Climate to Push One World Government Reforms With assaults on our nation’s freedoms and liberties coming from so many directions at the same time it is difficult to characterize one as being more dangerous than another. But a United Nations (U.N.) gathering scheduled for Dec. 7 – 18 may hold more lasting ramifications to U.S. sovereignty than anything the republic has ever faced.

Global Warming Bombshell The biggest news story of the day is one that has barely begun to break and will continue to reverberate for months or years to come. Someone hacked into a computer at the University of East Anglia's Hadley Climatic Research Centre, one of the main centers of anthropogenic global warming research. The hacker downloaded 62 megabytes of data from the server, consisting of around 1,000 emails and a variety of other documents. He uploaded them to an FTP server, where they were available to the public, apparently, for only a few hours. The event is described here (http://www.examiner.com/x-28973-Essex-County-Conservative-Examiner~y2009...)

Tell Congress: One Size Does Not Fit All When Considering Food Safety Bills!
The U.S. Senate is considering a bill, S. 510, to reform the food safety system. Although reform of the industrial food supply is clearly needed, this bill threatens to create more problems than it will solve. S. 510 would undermine the rapidly growing local foods movement by imposing unnecessary, burdensome regulations on small farms and food processors – everyone from your local CSA to the small bakers, jam makers, and people making fermented vegetables to sell at the local farmers market.

AP poll: Family dinner survives, with distractions Between the blare of the TV, the ring of the phone and Junior texting his buddies under the table or from the couch, the modern dinner comes with a heaping helping of distracting bells and whistles, an Associated Press-iVillage Food poll found. Yet the sit-down, home-cooked family meal is an enduring tradition. And not just on Thanksgiving or other special occasions. Most nights, most families manage to eat together, the survey found.

The Rise of the Conservative Woman One of the most revealing things about liberals is their insistence that only they can define a “real” minority or a “real” woman. In the eyes of the left, Clarence Thomas, Ken Blackwell and J.C. Watts will never be “real” black men. Likewise, Michele Bachmann, the smiling firebrand conservative congresswoman from Minnesota, and Sarah Palin, the popular former governor of Alaska, will never be “real” women.

Obama to China: Uncensored society is healthy SHANGHAI- President Barack Obama gave China a pointed, unexpected nudge to stop censoring the Internet access of its own people, offering an animated defense of the tool that helped him win the White House _ and telling his tightly controlled hosts not to be wary of a little criticism.

What Americans Need to Know About the Copenhagen Global Warming Conference Abstract: In December, the 15th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change will meet in Copenhagen to work on a successor treaty to the Kyoto Protocol. U.S. negotiators should refuse to sign any climate change treaty that does not include meaningful participation by China, India, and other major developing nations or that would harm the U.S. economy or threaten U.S. sovereignty.

HEALTH CARE
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Why Tragedy Will Be Result of Dems Rush to Victory on Health Reform Last Saturday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi begged, cajoled, and threatened health care legislation to a successful vote in her chamber, albeit by a razor thin margin of 220-215. The administration and House leadership touted this as a landmark vote, which it is, but only if you ignore the fact that the bill achieves almost none of President Obama's promised health reform goals. In fact, it is very likely to explode the deficit, drive up health care costs, and inflict massive new taxes on middle-class Americans.
http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2009/11/13/douglas-holtz-eakin-paul-howar...
Health 'Reform' Gets a Failing Grade In discussions with dozens of health-care leaders and economists, I find near unanimity of opinion that, whatever its shape, the final legislation that will emerge from Congress will markedly accelerate national health-care spending rather than restrain it. Likewise, nearly all agree that the legislation would do little or nothing to improve quality or change health-care's dysfunctional delivery system.

IMMIGRATION

When Illegal Aliens Take Over the House, Courtesy of the U.S. Senate Grouping illegal immigrants into the same population pool as citizens equalizes them for the purposes of congressional reapportionment. That means that after the 2010 census is completed, states with high numbers of illegal immigrants will be poised to gain more House seats in Congress than states with lower levels.

KNOW YOUR ENEMY: PROGRESSIVE LEFTIST WORKINGS
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The Obama Doctrine: Bend at the Waist To be fair, it was not just symbolism that made Obama seem something less than presidential. One only need look to the photographs of western leaders clothed in traditional Asian garb at the APEC summit to be reminded that sometimes being a head of state means debasing yourself in ways you would never tolerate as a private citizen. What’s truly insidious about the president’s behavior overseas is the sneaking suspicion it generates: that Obama – who never misses an opportunity to aggrandize himself – is equally incapable of passing up an opportunity to denigrate his country.

LABOR ISSUES:

Goodies for labor tucked away in health bill It was no surprise that AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka and Andy Stern, president of Service Employees International Union (SEIU), cheered the results of the House vote. After spending almost $80 million during the last election cycle, unions are on the brink of reaping a significant return on their investment. Despite representing only about 7.6% of private sector employees, unions are poised to gain significant privileges, authority and financial windfalls from health care reform. Coming at the expense of tax-paying patients and businesses, these specific benefits would do little or nothing to improve our health care system.

Tea Party Activists Burn Effigies And Dig In for 2010 Midterms
Undeterred by the embarrassing loss that you handed them in the NY-23 Special Election, the Glenn Beck worshiping 'tea party' extremists are digging in for the long term. First they announced that they're forming their own political action committee with the goal of raising millions to attack Democrats who voted for health insurance reform. Now they've taken their protests to shocking new lows. Next weekend, they are planning to burn Democratic Members of Congress in effigy and more of these sickening displays are planned for the week ahead.

Glenn Beck States “The Plan” There is much to do, much to learn and time is of the essence. While I will be explaining the entire Plan over the coming weeks and months, I did want to give you a preview of some of the highlights:

The President of Resentment The American people are hearing a call to arms -- not literal arms, for our system can self-correct. But we have to out-organize and out-pressure the Left. They have called us "the enemy" ever since Alinsky's little book radicalized the revolutionaries of the Boomer Left (and this only after the violent revolutionary groups were suppressed). When somebody really considers you an enemy, you have no choice: either you return the compliment, or you get overwhelmed by the new Chicago Mob in D.C.

Americans Are Messaging Each Other 'S.O.S.' Those Americans who align themselves with the GOP have watched their elected officials awaken to the warning signs many of us saw back during the election. Now Senator Lindsey Graham offers sound-bite criticism in his questioning of Attorney General Eric Holder, a man he once voted to confirm. Graham thinks the NYC terrorist trial is a bad idea. Like Detective John McClane, who in the movie Die Hard finally manages to alert the police to a hostage situation by dropping a terrorist's body on a patrol car from several stories up, our message to Graham is "Welcome to the party, pal." His friend John McCain, who wouldn't use candidate Obama's middle name during the campaign, is now so bold as to say the s-word: socialism. Welcome to the party, John.

What If ObamaCare Had a Rally and Nobody Showed Up? St. Louis Edition OH PLEASE WATCH THIS – IT IS HILARIOUS! There isn’t anything dramatic like SEIU thugs beating up people in the video below. What’s dramatic is what isn’t there–like the famous dogs who didn’t bark in the Sherlock Holmes story. Health Care for America Now (HCAN), the principal organization pushing for ObamaCare, and Organizing for America, Obama’s campaign arm at the Democrat National Committee, recently opened major offices in St. Louis. Their goal is to build a grassroots movement supporting ObamaCare. As this video shows, this national effort was able to muster around 30 people.
