Merrily, Merrily, Merrily, Merrily Life is But a Dream

For all you Mark Steyn fans out there, his book America Alone projected that by 2020 Europe would become Eurabia. It looks like his projections may actually be a little conservative, at least in England, where "Mohammed" has become the most popular name for baby boys. Row, row, row your boat...

Abortion/Breast Cancer Link

Chuck Colson reports on the link between abortion and breast cancer, which most media are loathe to publish. Nevertheless, the link is well demonstrated, as this quote from a pro abortion researcher illustrates:

"Dr. Janet Daling, a cancer epidemiologist who supports legal abortion, says, 'I would have loved to have found no association between breast cancer and abortion, but our research is rock solid, and our data is accurate.' And in 2007, the Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons found that women who have an abortion increase by 40 percent their risk of breast cancer."

Abortion claims way too many victims. It's time we as a society rethink and at the very least severely limit this awful procedure.

Is America in Denial About the President?

My friend Al Lyons sends this opinion piece from Fox News which asks whether the U.S. is in denial about its Chief Executive. I have thought and posted for some time that Obama simply does not have a sense for the heart of this country. If, in fact, he will only love it if the U.S. conforms to his vision of what it should be, then there is going to be trouble. If the elections polls are right for 11/2, then that trouble is already here because a majority of Americans, Republicans and Democrats, like the U.S. as it has been historically conceived, thank you very much. If the polls prove true, it will be interesting to see Obama's response.

Detroit to Become Detroit Lake?

I like this ballot measure. Detroit, Oregon is deciding whether to change its name to "Detroit Lake" next Tuesday. The sponsors of the measure don't like their city to be associated with the crime-ridden, dilapidated Motor City located 2000 miles to the east. Can't say I blame 'em. Located on the shore of a beautiful lake in the Cascade Mountains, the two have nothing in common, so a rousing "YES" on this measure. Please forgive me in advance, though, if I still say I'm going fishing "up at Detroit" - it is hard to teach an old dog new tricks.
