Obama chooses lawyer to oversee Guantanamo closure
Sun Jun 16, 2013
- Because the closing of that base DOES require a lawyer to be involved to work around all of the damned laws Congress has passed. And this one seems to have the credentials to MAYBE finally get the job done. It will depend on who gets appointed on the Pentagon side (most likely a military person to c …
Patients, industry both winners in Supreme Court DNA ruling
Thu Jun 13, 2013
- Does anyone else see some errors in this article and the ruling? Here are the definitions of DNA, genes, chromosomes, proteins, etc. that are all part of the body's genetic coding. It would seem to me that if you can't patent the DNA, then you can't patent ANY PART of that DNA either. Therefore, bas …
FEMA denies more aid to Texas town devastated by fertilizer plant explosion
Wed Jun 12, 2013
- Don't forget that that same governor refused federal funds from the Recovery Act...until his mansion caught on fire, then his story changed. The rest of the American taxpayers paid out over $10M for his mansion restoration. THAT should have been paid for strictly by the people of TX, or even better, …
Intelligence chief declassifies PRISM details, slams 'reckless disclosures'
Sat Jun 8, 2013
- There has been NO privacy since J. Edgar Hoover's days at the FBI. The Patriot Act passed overwhelmingly by Congress (and by some of the very members now screaming about this "privacy invasion") was simply a legalizing by Congress what has been going on for DECADES (the 60's and before.) Anyone who …
Michelle Obama confronts gay-rights heckler at fundraiser
Wed Jun 5, 2013
- If you all would have read the entire story, this was a Democratic Party fundraiser that Michelle was invited to speak at, and it was hosted by most apparently a LESBIAN couple, since the story referred to the two women as a couple. And I would almost bet that most of the rest of the crowd were also …
Sebelius won't intervene in girl's transplant case
Tue Jun 4, 2013
- Has anyone considered the fact that a child's body under 12 most likely would not be able to accept an adult sized organ (no room for it in the cavity.) That is probably why the OPTN has the policy they do. Too bad the parents of all of those children killed in CT shooting and those killed in the Mo …
The case of the $4 Swedish meatball, and other tales from government conferences
Tue Jun 4, 2013
- And the wasteful spending has to stop (when I used the word "start", I meant ending the wasteful spending) right in the Capital Building with all of the Congressional perks at the taxpayer expense...cafeteria where the food is practically FREE, and in some cases IS FREE, free medical care, free gym, …
Obama nominations set up potential Senate battle over judges
Tue Jun 4, 2013
- I think that group is a total waste of time...fair vote? The only thing of value that I saw in that organization was their call for popular vote presidential elections. It is just another 501(c) group robbing the taxpayers of their dollars. To really bring about election change, get involved in the …
NJ Sen. Lautenberg dies at 89
Mon Jun 3, 2013
- Actually you are all wrong on the "pork" issue and Sandy. Sandy was ATTACHED to a bill authorizing many national disasters. Go back and look at the original legislation in the works at the time Sandy occurred. This was all hashed out right here on Newsvine at the time and you were all corrected on t …
Justin Bieber's downfall in 8 simple steps
Sat Jun 1, 2013
- Fame far too often goes to the heads of these childhood "stars". It is past time for him to do like the child star said the other day in an interview (the little girl from Mrs. Doubtfire). Get out and get other training. I never did think he had any talent, so still don't know how he became this fam …

Questions & Answers

Do you worry about artificial dyes in food?
Yes, and I've stopped eating foods with artificial dyes
- It is interesting that you would mention Kellogg, maker of Morning Star Farm products.....before Kellogg bought them out (Worthington Foods), they NEVER used artificial dyes in their products. Beet juice was used for the red coloring in their "dogs", etc. Once Kellogg bought them out, suddenly the d …
- Artificial dyes in any substance can affect your health in many ways. Buy only foods that use natural coloring (carrot, beet, etc.)
