oh goody…yet another thing to tell my daughter to NOT pay attention to.

I bought a bird feeder. I hung it on my back porch and filled it with seed. What a beauty of a bird feeder it was, as I filled it lovingly with seed. Within a week we had hundreds of birds taking advantage of the continuous flow of free and easily accessible food.

But then the birds started building nests in the boards of the patio, above the table, and next to the barbecue.

Then came the poop. It was everywhere: on the patio tile, the chairs, the table… everywhere!

Then some of the birds turned mean. They would dive bomb me and try to peck me even though I had fed them out of my own pocket.

And others birds were boisterous and loud. They sat on the feeder and squawked and screamed at all hours of the day and night and demanded that I fill it when it got low on food.

After a while, I couldn’t even sit on my own back porch anymore. So I took down the bird feeder and in three days the birds were gone. I cleaned up their mess and took down the many nests they had built all over the patio.

Soon, the back yard was like it used to be… quiet… serene… and no one demanding their rights to a free meal.

Now let’s see.

Our government gives out free food, subsidized housing, free medical care and free education, and allows anyone born here to be an automatic citizen.

Then the illegals came by the tens of thousands. Suddenly, our taxes went up to pay for free services; small apartments are housing 5 families; you have to wait 6 hours to be seen by an emergency room doctor; your child’s second grade class is behind other schools because over half the class doesn’t speak English.

Corn Flakes now come in a bilingual box; I have to ‘press one ‘ to hear my bank talk to me in English, and people waving flags other than ‘Old Glory’ are squawking and screaming in the streets, demanding more rights and free liberties.

Just my opinion, but maybe it’s time for the government to take down the bird feeder. If you agree, pass it on; if not, continue cleaning up the poop.

Faceoff! Cops versus preachers on public sidewalk.

It’s only going tog et worse.  This is n’t the first time and won’t be the last.

Feds go hog wild promoting swine-flu shots.

REsist this.  This vaccine has not been tested to any level of safety.  Plus with virii ability to mutate it’s most likely the flu vaccine isn’t going to be that effective anyway.

Paul Gordon: Only government can solve the impending health crisis.

We already have government healthcare and it’s called medicare and medicaid.  Costs have gone up since the government got involved.  Wnat tog et health costs down?  Get the government out of healthcare.  Healthcare is not one of the powers enumerated to the federal government in the US Constitution.

Next step in H1N1 scare: Microchip implants.

White House Reveals Identity of Firm That Sent Unsolicited E-Mails on Health Reform – Political News – FOXNews.com.

Obama the spammer!  If anything should rile you up it’s the fact he has now broken the can spam act!!!  This is a federal law!  While he hides his birt certificate that’s one thing but he is now in violation of federal law!  Come on folks let’s get writing to your federal congress critters!

The White House hired a private communications company based in Minnesota to distribute mass e-mails, helping to shed light on how some recipients received e-mails in support of President Obama’s health care plan without signing up for them, FOX News has learned.

The company, Govdelivery, describes itself as the world’s leading provider of government-to-citizen communication solutions and says its e-mail service provides a fully-automated on-demand public communication system.

It is still unknown how much taxpayer money the White House provides to Govdelivery for its services.

The revelation comes after the White House acknowledged this week that people were receiving unsolicited e-mails from the administration about health care reform and suggested the problem was with third-party groups that placed the recipients’ names on the distribution list.

Republicans quickly pounced on the news.

“This is yet another ominous chapter in the administration’s rabid campaign to jam its radical health care scheme onto an unwilling public by any means necessary,” Rep. Thaddeus McCotter of Michigan said in a statement.

Govdelivery sent hundreds of e-mails from senior adviser David Axelrod asking supporters to help rebut criticism of Obama’s health care plan circulating on the Internet. It also sent e-mails highlighting Obama’s speech to the Muslim world in Cairo and the announcement of Sonia Sotomayor as a Supreme Court nominee.

Several FOX News viewers complained they received these e-mails even though they had never requested any communication from the White House.

On Monday, the White House implemented several new changes to its Web site, apparently aimed at reducing the number of people who receive unsolicited e-mails and at fighting charges that it’s collecting personal information on critics.

The White House also pulled the plug on a controversial e-mail address, flag@whitehouse.gov, that was established for supporters to report “fishy” information about health care reform.

Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., has sent a letter to the White House asking for the “full truth” behind the Axelrod e-mails and expressing concern that “political e-mail address lists were used for official purposes.”

Chris Hansen, a staff attorney with the American Civil Liberties Union told FOX News that if the White House used the private firm, it’s the same as if it had sent the e-mails.

The White House insists that Govdelivery aggregates nothing and plays no role in the formation of its e-mail list; it is merely an end-product e-mail distributor.

Govdelivery does extensive work with a bevy of federal, state, and local agencies, including 11 Cabinet-level departments such as Defense, State, and Justice. Among the tasks Govdelivery performs are FBI internal e-mails and external regional crime alerts, and FEMA hurricane or other natural disaster alerts.

In fact, before Jan. 1, Govdelivery handled 85 percent of mass e-mail deliveries for federal agencies.

The White House said it hired Govdelivery based on its performance with those agencies. The company was hired after Jan. 1 but before Obama took office on Jan. 20.

The White House notes that Govdelivery also handles mass e-mails for Texas Gov. Rick Perry and Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels, both Republicans.

Earlier this week, Govdelivery’s president, Scott Burns, declined to comment to FOX News on whether the White House had used his firm to send out the Axelrod e-mails.

Substation is not suitable for anyone’s neighborhood.

There’s one thing these folks constantly neglect to mention..we are part of hte PJM interconnect.  Sure while this line(PATH) does not DIRECTLY sned power to Frederick County it can because we are part of hte interconnect.  That power fomr kempvillle can be rerouted back here if it is needed as per the regulations put forth by the PJM Interconnct.  So this power WOULD srever Frederick county.

Substation is not suitable for anyone’s neighborhood

Certain industrial projects and infrastructure are not suitable in residential areas. Allegheny Energy’s proposed PATH 765kV “Kemptown” substation is one of those projects.

It is absurd that the largest, highest voltage electric substation ever built be constructed in the middle of 1,300 Frederick County homes.

Industrial projects like this vast substation should be built near interstate highways, in industrial zones, or in extreme rural locations.

For anyone to conclude that this is a case of “Not in My Backyard” I would argue that this 765kV substation should not be anywhere near anyone’s backyard!

If a person is not willing to protect the rights of their own family and neighbors, who will? To accuse someone of NIMBY is to encourage apathy and discourage residents from engaging in issues that directly affect them.

By Allegheny’s own admission, more than 80 percent of energy this proposed Frederick County substation will generate will go to power New York City and New Jersey.

I love Frederick County. I have lived here for more than 37 years. I will fight this for my family and my neighbors’ families and would encourage you to do the same.
