Mitt Romney Lies About Healthcare

I was going to write a post on this subject, but I came across this picture on Facebook, and I don't think I could describe the problems with Romney's rhetoric any better! Not only did he attempt to run healthcare in his own state exactly the same way Obama wants to run it, except with fewer choices for individuals, he did a complete 180 on the issue in order to pander to pharmaceutical companies, insurance companies, and the rest of the medical "industry"so he could still rake in big donations to his campaign and run for president. What a lying hypocrite.

In Case You Missed Church This Sunday

If you were not at Westboro Baptist Church today, you might not have heard their insane rhetoric toward the gay community and other minorities. I wonder if Reverend Fred Phelps celebrated the National Kiss In at his church, Gage Park, (in Topeka, near Phred Phelps's house) or at Chick-fil-A's?

Morgan Keyanna Martin

The last time seventeen year old Morgan Keyanna Martin, or St. Petersburg, Florida, was seen was around 12:30 AM on July 25. She is four months pregnant, and her baby's father, whom she met online, had visited her apartment to "talk" to her. At 12:30 AM......yeah. Fast forward to now....no one has seen or heard from her. She has not called anyone, and she has not logged into her Facebook account or checked her email. All that is being said by police or by her family about the baby's father is that he is twenty-six years old and from Kansas City. No name, no description, not even the specific of whether his stomping grounds are in Kansas City, Kansas; or Kansas City, Missouri. With more details, the public might be able to help locate Morgan a lot more easily. Anyway, here is a drivers' license picture below. Anyone who knows any details concerning Morgan Martinez or her whereabouts should call law enforcement in Florida at 727-893-7780.

Najda Drygalla Quits The Team

Najda Drygalla, rower on Germany's Olympic team, went home early the other day, after the media pointed out that she dates a man who is part of Rostock National Socialists, a Neo Nazi group. In March of 2011, she resigned from the Mecklenburg Western Pomeranian Police Force for similar reasons. She claims she went home, so as not to be a "distraction" to the games. Anyone notice that she did not deny Neo Nazi leanings or connections? Is the desire to be undersocialized, racist, prejudiced, inbred, or genocidal really particular to just Hitler? Did these things really disappear from the German Culture when Hitler disappeared? Here's a video with some oft neglected history and some eye-opening facts.

How come all the exchange students who stay in Northeast Kansas for any length of time look almost exactly like Najda Drygalla?

Terri And James Moulton Should Be Proud

Aaron's Law is still pretty new. The bill was just passed into law in Oregon in 2005. This law grants a parent of a kidnapped child, or a parent whose custodial rights have been frustrated, the right to pursue the matter in civil court when pursuit in family court will not remedy the situation. Sean Cruz, an Oregon parent, wrote that bill because of his own experience on the receiving end of custodial interference.

Desiree Young, mother of Kyron Horman who disappeared from his school on June 4, 2010, is taking advantage of Aaron's Law, in order to finally hear testimony from Terri Moulton Horman, Kyron's sometime step parent, concerning why she will not give Kyron back to his natural parents. Instead of stepping forward in this moment of judicial history, Terri balked. She wants an an abatement for two years! But she was pretty quiet about the whole affair until July 24, when she learned that her biological son, James Moulton, was going to be deposed. THEN, she wanted a hearing......to move the court that he not testify! What? We get to pick and choose which witnesses testify in court? Someone who saw, heard, or knows something about the matter at hand cannot be subpoenaed because we don't want them to be subpoenaed? Waaaaaaaa! Is poor Terri gonna cwy?

Terri Horman should really both be proud that her fifteen minutes of fame involves the first case tried in court via a brand new law. This is really an important case that will set a precedent for future cases. Neither she, nor her son, James, should back away from court if they have nothing to hide. Desiree's attorney, Eldon Rosenthal, filed an answer to Terri's request for a two year abatement today.  Kyron has already been missing for two years. Hopefully, the judge will only adjust the schedule to assure that Terri Horman will not have to be in family court for her pending divorce at the same time she is telling Desiree why she has not returned Kyron.

Lughnasadh

Lammas, or the Festival of Lugh, the God of Light. It's usually observed in the northern hemisphere around August 1, or on the first full moon of Leo, and today happens to be both. Our present day traditions of carnivals hark back to this festival, and traditional foods, besides meats, were grains, any fruit that is ripe by this time during the summer, and of course, anything else from the garden with which one cooked. Lugh, as the God of Light, had started to recede just a little bit, and re-enactments of battles between light and darkness were usually done. Sometimes couples were handfasted for a year and a day, at this festival. If the union lasted, they could make it permanant at a later date. Lughnasadh is more about fun. Brightest Blessings, all!

Missing Lisa Irwin, Trolls, And Hypertrolls

 "I came to your blog because I have alerts set up to notify me whenever some a hole such as yourself makes a post about her."........This is a comment left on another blog, Solarspectrum Tarot, from someone who not only disagreed with the blogger and accidently ended up in passionate online discourse that got ugly, but read a Tarot reading in which no name but that of Lisa Irwin, the ten month old girl who disappeared in Kansas City, Missouri, was mentioned and INTENTIONALLY, I repeat, INTENTIONALLY, harassed the blog owner and the others engaged in discussion about the Lisa Irwin missing persons case. Here's more: "I have an alert setup so that I can refute idiots like yourself." Since no one had even mentioned the names of Lisa's parents, Debbie Bradley or Jeremy Irwin, this troll apparently went into overdrive just because a blogger followed up a request to open a new discussion about Lisa Irwin, and help keep her case in the open, keep it discussed, and also to help keep people looking for her. This troll is obviously someone who not only does not want Lisa found, but does not want the exasperation of Kansas City Police at Debbie Bradley and Jeremy Irwin's lack of cooperation with efforts to find their daughter remembered or discussed! Forget that no one has actually accused Miss Debbie of a crime; forget that no one knows exactly what to accuse Debbie of doing........this person just wants the attention drawn to little Lisa's missing persons case, along with all efforts to find her, to simply go away. The best way to make the case "go away", or, in the lexicon of someone whose personality is not chemically maintained, get resolved, is to cooperate with law enforcement and discuss all possible whereabouts of Baby Lisa. But here, we have a troll in overdrive, or a "hypertroll".

While it's true that the population at large is probably not in a position to locate Lisa, and indeed, there are no age progressed pictures of her yet, the case was publicized by the media and by Kansas City Police Department in hopes that if anyone saw Lisa or knew anything about the case that law enforcement didn't know, tips could be given. Also, pictures of Lisa as a baby were shared with the general public. Of course, a few segments of the public were already aquainted with the infamous Debbie Bradley, and unhappily so. Debbie Bradley has mental health issues, addiction problems, and does not get along with people very well. Also, Debbie Bradley and Jeremy Irwin were presenting as an engaged-to-be-married couple, but the media, not the couple, blew the lid off the fact that Debbie Bradley is still married to someone else. In this country, one can marry as many times as one wishes, but one must get divorced between "I do's". Also, Debbie has one son, not two. Jeremy has a son, and that little boy's mother is unable to maintain a relationship with him without going to court to force and reinforce court orders. Could this be, at least in part, because of the combative personality had by Debbie Bradley? It seems kinda, sorta possible! Could anyone who knows Debbie imagine her making the act of picking up her son and dropping him off as difficult as possible for Rasleen Raim, the mother of Jeremy's son? Hmmmmm.........I'll bet one of these hypertrolls knows the answer to that!

Lisa Irwin is still missing. Since we have no news of the progress of the investigation, and Lisa's parents have not attempted, at all, to keep the public informed and searching, it is even more important to write and publish information about the case. No matter who made Lisa disappear, hoping that the case will "go away" is allowing a criminal, (yes, someone TOOK Lisa, she did not walk away by herself) to evade apprehension indefinately. Also, Lisa's unwed parents should both push the FBI for an age progressed picture of their daughter. And finally, if no one writes about the case, someone may accidently organize a vigil, or something similar, and make Debbie Bradley very upset. It's true; not only do the hypertrolls discourage internet discourse about little Lisa, Lisa's parents no longer want her remembered in public by way of vigils. They do not want any attention given to the case by anyone.
