Report says 225,000 Haiti children work as slaves By EVENS SANON and JONATHAN M. KATZ Associated Press writer © 2009 The Associated Press Dec. 22, 2009, 5:50PM PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti — Poverty has forced at least 225,000 children in Haiti's cities into slavery as unpaid household servants, far more than previously thought, a report said Tuesday. The Pan American Development Foundation's report also said some of those children — mostly young girls — suffer sexual, psychological and physical abuse while toiling in extreme hardship. The report recommends Haiti's government and international donors focus efforts on educating the poor and expanding social services such as shelters for girls, who make up an estimated two-thirds of the child servant population. Young servants are known as "restavek" — Haitian Creole for "stays with" — and their plight is both widely known and a source of great shame in the Caribbean nation that was founded by a slave revolt more than 200 years ago. Researchers said the practice is so common that almost half of 257 children interviewed in the sprawling Port-au-Prince shantytown of Cite Soleil were household slaves. Most are sent by parents who cannot afford to care for them to families just slightly better off. Researchers found 11 percent of families that have a restavek have sent their own children into domestic servitude elsewhere. Despite growing attention to the problem, researchers said their sources were unaware of any prosecutions of cases involving trafficking children or using them as unpaid servants in this deeply poor nation of more than 9 million people.  FULL STORY In other countries (like here), they are called "foster children".

CQ TODAY MIDDAY UPDATE Dec. 22, 2009 – 1:19 p.m. Republicans Lodge Constitutional Challenge to Health Bill Senate Republicans, defeated at every turn thus far in their bid to prevent Senate passage of a health care bill before Christmas, are digging into their parliamentary tool chest. John Ensign , R-Nev., lodged a constitutional point of order against the legislation on Tuesday, claiming its mandate that individuals purchase health insurance or pay a penalty falls outside the scope of congressional powers enumerated in Article I, Section 8, of the Constitution. It also violates the Fifth Amendment’s ban on the taking of private property for public purposes “without just compensation,” Ensign asserted. While the Senate is unlikely to uphold his challenge, Ensign raised points that could very well resurface in litigation if the legislation becomes law. The Senate will vote on Ensign’s challenge Wednesday. Ensign argued that Congress does not have the power to require individuals to purchase a particular good, in this case health insurance. “Is it really constitutional for this body to tell all Americans that they must buy health insurance coverage?” Ensign asked. “And if so, what’s next? What personal liberty or property will Congress seek to take away from Americans next?” (oh I dunno- maybe their KIDS?) He added, “If one of my constituents in Nevada does not want to spend his or her hard-earned income on health insurance coverage and would prefer to spend it on something else such as rent or a car payment, this requirement could be a taking of private property under the Fifth Amendment.”  FULL STORY

Former Oklahoma DHS employee avoids jail time in exploitation By BILL BRAUN World Staff Writer 12/21/2009  12:38 PM Last Modified: 12/21/2009  2:11 PM A former Department of Human Services employee received a three-year probation Monday for two Tulsa County offenses of financially exploiting vulnerable adults. Debra Roberts, 51, pleaded guilty Oct. 5 to two felony exploitation counts. She had no agreement with prosecutors to govern her punishment. District Judge Kurt Glassco on Monday made a finding of guilt, giving Roberts a felony conviction in each of the cases. Glassco imposed a three-year suspended sentence that does not require her to serve any jail or prison time. Roberts was free on bond while awaiting sentencing in the cases, which were filed in 2008. Roberts was a DHS Adult Protective Services specialist. She was charged in one case with taking nearly $4,500 from an 84-year-old man. She had been a temporary guardian for the man after a court decided that he lacked the mental capacity to consent to necessary protective services. As his guardian, Roberts had the authority to use his money to pay for residential care and daily living expenses, an investigator’s affidavit states. Prosecutors maintained that his nursing home bills went unpaid and that checks signed by Roberts on the man’s guardian account were written for cash. In the other case, Roberts was charged with financially exploiting a 74-year-old mentally disabled man by converting about $5,900 of his money to her own use. She had been his temporary guardian. Defense lawyer Jack Gordon said Roberts made restitution covering both cases. No restitution requirement was imposed as part of Monday’s sentencing. Roberts, whose employment with the Department of Human Services began in August 2004, was suspended from her duties in June 2008. She was discharged from DHS in November 2008 after an internal investigation. Roberts has an unresolved exploitation charge in Rogers County. That charge alleges that she took $900 from a guardianship account - to which she was entrusted on behalf of an incapacitated adult - and converted the money to her own use, records show. What would the state do to you or me if we stole twelve grand from people we are supposed to be taking care of?  And where do you suppose the money came from that she used to "repay"? And, why do they think we will put up with this by the bureaucrats?

Obama sued for secret abortion meetings 'In haste to socialize medicine, president violated commitment to transparency' Posted: December 21, 2009 8:37 pm Eastern By Bob Unruh © 2009 WorldNetDaily A legal firebrand whose work fighting corruption left both Bill Clinton and Dick Cheney on the defensive today took on Barack Obama, suing the president for secret meetings with Planned Parenthood and other lobbyists on his plans to nationalize health care. Larry Klayman, founder of Judicial Watch and, more recently, Freedom Watch USA, filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., under the Federal Advisory Committee Act. The law requires disclosure of records of meetings between the executive branch and outside industry lobbyists. It also requires access to meetings. Klayman raised the same issues during the early years of the Clinton administration, contributing to the demise of the health care proposal championed by Hillary Clinton. The lawsuit charges that in Obama's "haste to socialize medicine in the United States, and increase government control generally," he has "violated his commitment to transparency."             "It is widely known that President Obama and his surrogates have been holding behind closed door meetings with health care industry lobbyists, cutting deals to win passage of his health care legislation," Klayman said. Klayman contends the president's conduct falls within the scope of the Federal Advisory Committee Act, which "requires the president to come clean on why he has caved in to the pharmaceutical industry, preventing the importation of prescription drugs that would lower prices for consumers, why he has become the lackey of Planned Parenthood in championing government financed abortions, and why the AMA (American Medical Association) and AARP (American Association of Retired Persons) are now his great friends." As WND reported, Klayman had returned to Washington, where his efforts to bring light to the Clinton administration made him a high-profile political figure that was parodied on television in the "West Wing" character Harry Klaypool. Klayman said after his return he was stunned by the level of corruption in the nation's capital, telling CNN's Lou Dobbs, "I've never seen it like this."  FULL STORY Actually Larry, this is the level of corruption we have been dealing with the CPS, the psychs, and the unconstitutional Family Courts for 30 years.

Tell Congress your story A Q&A with grassroots consultant Christopher Kush By Ryan Teague Beckwith Congress.org Forget philosophical arguments or dry lists of statistics.

The WAR  on the Family

Man tricked Texas judge to improperly gain custody of son 12:00 AM CST on Monday, December 7, 2009 Craig Kapitan, San Antonio Express-News SAN ANTONIO – As the uniformed men approached the 10-year-old's school bus that Friday afternoon last month, the eyes of his classmates widened. A frantic scene ensued. Berenice Diaz recalled the confusion as two other deputy constables blocked the door of her car. Diaz had driven to the bus stop to pick up her son, Jean Paul Lacombe. "He was on his knees, shouting and crying, 'Don't let me go with him,' " Diaz said of her son, who realized his father was with the uniformed men. The mother eventually persuaded a constable to let her approach her son. She hugged him, and the two cried together. "Please don't take him," she pleaded with the officer, who replied that they had a court order and told her she could see her son again in court on Monday. "You're making this harder," she recalled hearing him say. That was Oct. 16. The day before, the boy's father, Jean Philippe Lacombe, had convinced state District Judge Sol Casseb that he was the rightful guardian, using misleading documents from Mexican judicial authorities. Father and son haven't been seen since. "I call it a government-assisted kidnapping," said San Antonio attorney Miguel Ortiz, who represents the distraught mother. "This guy made a mockery of our courts. It's offensive."  FULL STORY Bawl your stupid eyes out Nancy.  EVERY KID that CPS kidnaps bellows like that, and that's why CPS dopes kids out of their heads.  Everything the system is doing to kids is a CRIME.

Who is St. Nicholas? St. Nicholas Artist: Susan Seals  All rights reserved The true story of Santa Claus begins with Nicholas, who was born during the third century in the village of Patara.  At the time the area was Greek and is now on the southern coast of Turkey. His wealthy parents, who raised him to be a devout Christian, died in an epidemic while Nicholas was still young. Obeying Jesus' words to "sell what you own and give the money to the poor," Nicholas used his whole inheritance to assist the needy, the sick, and the suffering. (which is a lot different than being a democrat) He dedicated his life to serving God and was made Bishop of Myra while still a young man.  Bishop Nicholas became known throughout the land for his generosity to the those in need, his love for children, and his concern for sailors and ships.  Under the Roman Emperor Diocletian, who ruthlessly persecuted Christians, Bishop Nicholas suffered for his faith, was exiled and imprisoned.  The prisons were so full of bishops, priests, and deacons, there was no room for the real criminals -murderers, thieves and robbers.  After his release, Nicholas attended the Council of Nicaea in AD 325. He died December 6, AD 343 in Myra and was buried in his cathedral church, where a unique relic, called manna, formed in his grave. This liquid substance, said to have healing powers, fostered the growth of devotion to Nicholas. The anniversary of his death became a day of celebration, St. Nicholas Day, December 6th (December 19 on the Julian Calendar). Through the centuries many stories and legends have been told of St. Nicholas' life and deeds. These accounts help us understand his extraordinary character and why he is so beloved and revered as protector and helper of those in need.  FULL STORY

Turning Children Into Orwellian Eco-Spies by Frank Furedi December 19, 2009 Copyright © 2009 Spiked Online There is a long and sordid tradition of trying to socialise children by scaring them. The aim of such socialisation-through-fear is twofold: firstly, to get children to conform to the scaremongers’ values; secondly, to use children to influence, or at least to contain, their parents’ behaviour. When I was a schoolchild in Stalinist Hungary, we were frequently warned about the numerous threats facing our glorious regime. I also recall that we were encouraged to lecture our errant parents about the new wonderful values being promoted by our brave, wise leaders. The Big Brothers of the 1940s saw children as tools of moral blackmail and social control. Today, in the twenty-first century, scaremongers see children in much the same way, exploiting their natural concern with the wonders of life to promote a message of shrill climate alarmism.  FULL STORY

About all this money the "Idiots In Charge" of the "Richest Country in the World" are tossing around like candy- Harder to buy US Treasuries Created: 2009-12-18 0:13:35 Author:Zhou Xin and Jason Subler Copyright © 2001-2009 Shanghai Daily Publishing House It is getting harder for governments to buy United States Treasuries because the US's shrinking current-account gap is reducing supply of dollars overseas, a Chinese central bank official said yesterday. The comments by Zhu Min, deputy governor of the People's Bank of China, referred to the overall situation globally, not specifically to China, the biggest foreign holder of US government bonds. Chinese officials generally are very careful about commenting on the dollar and Treasuries, given that so much of its US$2.3 trillion reserves are tied to their value, and markets always watch any such comments closely for signs of any shift in how it manages its assets. China's State Administration of Foreign Exchange reaffirmed this month that the dollar stands secure as the anchor of the currency reserves it manages, even as the country seeks to diversify its investments. In a discussion on the global role of the dollar, Zhu told an academic audience that it was inevitable that the dollar would continue to fall in value because Washington continued to issue more Treasuries to finance its deficit spending. He then addressed where demand for that debt would come from. "The United States cannot force foreign governments to increase their holdings of Treasuries," Zhu said, according to an audio recording of his remarks. "Double the holdings? It is definitely impossible." "The US current account deficit is falling as residents' savings increase, so its trade turnover is falling, which means the US is supplying fewer dollars to the rest of the world," he added. "The world does not have so much money to buy more US Treasuries." China continues to see its foreign exchange reserves grow, albeit at a slower pace than in past years, due to a large trade surplus and inflows of foreign investment. They stood at US$2.3 trillion at the end of September. The communist Chinese government OWNS us.  Does that matter?  Our "Idiots in Charge" are tossing money around as if they are printing it out of thin air.  Which of course THEY ARE Learn about the Cloward–Piven Strategy (also abbreviated CPS) First proposed in 1966 and named after Columbia University sociologists Richard Andrew Cloward and Frances Fox Piven, the “Cloward-Piven Strategy” seeks to hasten the fall of capitalism by overloading the government bureaucracy with a flood of impossible demands, thus pushing society into crisis and economic collapse. "The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of "liberalism," they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened." He went on to say: "I no longer need to run as a Presidential Candidate for the Socialist Party. The Democratic Party has adopted our platform." - Norman Thomas, perennial Presidential candidate of the U.S. Socialist Party (1944)

Advanced courses with Christian view now online 'Homeschoolers and others can jumpstart their college program' Posted: December 18, 2009 12:40 am Eastern © 2009 WorldNetDaily A new program has been launched that sponsors say will jumpstart the college careers of homeschoolers and other students who want advanced placement courses that are free of the secular influences of evolution-as-fact, everyone-does-sex and God-doesn't exist trains of thought. The offerings are coming from the Patrick Henry College Preparatory Academy, with open registration now for high school juniors or seniors – or even their parents -- are who serious and academically motivated. "PHC Prep will enable homeschoolers and others to jumpstart their college program by learning from the best Christian academics in the country," said Adam Rohner, the school director. Drawing on Patrick Henry College's established reputation, PHC prep proposes to "provide high school level students the best college preparation available."    Each PHC Prep course will provide a fully integrated Christian worldview since each course will be developed and taught by Patrick Henry College professors and hand-selected Christian teachers. Each course, when coupled with the AP subject test from the college board, can lead to college-level credit at Patrick Henry College or thousands of other colleges across the nation. Classes in the U.S. Government and Politics course begin in January. Then, a full slate of offerings will be launched, including English Language and Composition, English Literature and Composition, Calculus AB, Microeconomics and Macroeconomics.

Lawmaker, Convicted Of Raping Foster Kids, Claims Name Is Copyrighted So You Can't Report It from the what-happens-when-you-teach-people-that-copyright-allows-ownership-of-words dept TechDirt.com A bunch of folks have sent in this story of former South Dakota state Rep. Ted Alvin Klaudt, who was convicted of raping his two foster daughters a couple years ago, and who is now claiming that his name is covered by copyright, so no one can report on it. More specifically, he's trying to claim a "common law copyright." Unfortunately for Mr. Klaudt, except in extremely limited circumstances, the US does not recognize "common law copyright." He's demanding written permission to use his name in a news report, and has apparently demanded anywhere from $500,000 to $2 million for each "unauthorized" use. Apparently Klaudt, despite having been a former lawmaker, is unfamiliar with the basics of the law.

Miami doctor cited in letter blasting healthcare monitoring Sen. Charles Grassley pointed to a Miami doctor in an attempt to show that the government needs to do something about over-utilization of healthcare. BY JOHN DORSCHNER MiamiHerald.com 12-17-2009 A Miami psychiatrist who writes prescriptions for Medicaid patients at a rate of 150 a day, seven days a week, has been targeted by a U.S. senator as an example of why the federal government should do more to investigate over-utilization of healthcare. The biting letter, from Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, to federal Medicaid officials comes at a time when authorities are looking for ways to reduce what experts believe is massive overspending in areas like Miami, where healthcare costs can be more than twice the national average, as healthcare reform advocates look for ways to find the money to spread coverage to the uninsured.  FULL STORY This is what is going on with children kidnapped by CPS across the country.  It's PANDEMIC.  See Doping the Kids- The Pharmacaust

An Exclusive Interview with Barbara Starfield MEDICALLY CAUSED DEATH IN AMERICA By Jon Rappoport Medical Freedom Alliance December 17, 2009 On July 26, 2000, the US medical community received a titanic shock to the system, when one of its most respected and honored public-health experts, Dr. Barbara Starfield, revealed her findings on healthcare in America. The landmark Starfield study, “Is US health really the best in the world?”, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, came to the following conclusions: Every year in the US there are: 12,000 deaths from unnecessary surgeries; 7,000 deaths from medication errors in hospitals; 20,000 deaths from other errors in hospitals; 80,000 deaths from infections acquired in hospitals; 106,000 deaths from FDA-approved correctly prescribed medicines. The total of medically-caused deaths in the US every year is 225,000. This makes the medical system the third leading cause of death in the US, behind heart disease and cancer. The Starfield study is the most explosive revelation about modern healthcare in America ever published. The credentials of its author and the journal in which it appeared are, within the highest medical circles, impeccable. Yet, on the heels of Starfield’s astonishing findings, although media reporting was extensive, it soon dwindled. No major newspaper or television network mounted an ongoing “Medicalgate” investigation. Neither the US Department of Justice nor federal health agencies undertook prolonged remedial action. All in all, it seemed that those parties who could have taken effective steps to correct this mind-boggling situation preferred to ignore it.  FULL STORY And the politicians want to make it a thousand times worse.

Winter Storm Slams the East Coast Saturday, December 19, 2009 AP WASHINGTON  —  A winter storm socked the East Coast on Saturday and dumped more than a foot of snow in some areas, creating treacherous conditions and misery for motorists on the weekend before Christmas. Officials urged residents to stay indoors, and many heeded the warning. Stores and malls usually bustling with shoppers were nearly deserted in some areas. Airports canceled flights or were operating with excessive delays. Drivers abandoned their cars as roads and highways became slick, and at times, impassable. Forecasts called for up to 20 inches of snow across the region and a blizzard warning was in effect for the nation's capital, which was virtually a sea of white. Tens of thousands of power outages were reported across the region. Snowplows cleared the runway at Andrews Air Force Base in suburban Washington as President Barack Obama returned from climate talks in Copenhagen. The White House said Obama rode in a motorcade back to the White House, instead of taking his helicopter, because of the conditions.  FULL STORY I think the Obamination should have spent the night in the airport laying across a short couch.  Or stayed in "Hopenhagen" and worked on becoming Prez of the communist New World Order.

H1N1 vaccine liquidation sale now on: Hurry while supplies last! Friday, December 18, 2009 by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger Editor of NaturalNews.com (NaturalNews) All of a sudden, H1N1 vaccines are available all across America. Walgreens and other pharmacies are pushing the vaccines as if there were an "everything must go" liquidation sale under way. Hurry, get your swine flu vaccine today before everybody figures out they're useless! The marketability of vaccines has a strict time limit. They're only in demand during the fear phase of a pandemic, and that fear phase has long since faded for H1N1. Virtually everyone who wants an H1N1 vaccine has already received one, and the rest of the population is beginning to notice something quite curious: People who got the vaccine are no better off than those who skipped it. In fact, there's no difference in mortality between those who were vaccinated and those who weren't, indicating yet again that the swine flu vaccine was a medical hoax to begin with. If you don't believe me, just ask the potentially hundreds of thousands of parents who gave their children one of the recently recalled H1N1 children's vaccines. These vaccines were recalled because they were found to be so weak that they were medically useless. But observant parents are noticing a curious fact: Children who received the "useless" (recalled) vaccine have been no worse off than those who received a full-strength vaccine.... Millions of useless vaccines So now we have a situation where the U.S. government has spent billions of dollars acquiring H1N1 vaccines that, by the time they were delivered for consumption, were already irrelevant to public health. Does anybody really believe at this point that swine flu is a deadly pandemic that will kill you if you don't receive a vaccine? You'd have to really look hard to find someone so uninformed (and brainwashed) that they're making the H1N1 vaccine a priority in their life right now. So what we're going to end up with here is a huge stockpile of H1N1 vaccines that nobody wants. Sure, the pharmacies, clinics and hospitals will try to push as many of them as they can (even offering free vaccines sooner or later, just to get people into their stores), but in the end, they're inevitably going to be sitting on millions of extra doses of vaccine with nowhere to inject them.  FULL STORY Don't forget our Flu Stories in 2009

Minister: Obamacare kills African-American babies Charges president has become 'the face of black genocide in America today' Posted: December 17, 2009 12:20 am Eastern By Jerome R. Corsi © 2009 WorldNetDaily A black minister who founded a website called BlackGenocide.org charges the Obama administration's health care reform legislation is designed to increase the number of abortions in the African-American community. "It's sinister, but President Obama has become the face of black genocide in America today," said Rev. Clenard H. Childress Jr., senior pastor of the New Calvary Baptist Church in Montclair, N.J. According to Childress, about 35 percent of the nearly 4,500 abortions performed each day in the U.S. are on African-Americans, even though African-Americans are only about 13.5 percent of the population. Childress said 52 percent of all African-American pregnancies end in abortion, and three out of every five African-American women will obtain an abortion. He estimated16 million African-American babies have been aborted since the passage of Wade v. Roe in 1973. Had the approximately 16 million African American babies aborted since the landmark Supreme Court decision been allowed to live, there likely would be more than 50 million African-Americans in the U.S. today. The last count, in 2007, was 40 million.  FULL STORY

The Nightmares of Public School Predictable Non-Reaction from Parents Over Boy’s Suspension  Posted by Ryan W. McMaken on December 15, 2009 11:53 PM Lew Rockwell Blog This story about an 8-year-old boy who was suspended for drawing a picture of Jesus on the cross has been making the rounds, and the proper interpretation should be obvious. However, I’ll restate it to make sure we’re all on the same page: Public schools are run by some of the most hysterical, ignorant, and foolish people under the celestial dome. If this was news to you, however, I might also note that grass is green and the sky is blue. Anyone who is still surprised by stories like this deserves a prize for possessing a Pollyanna complex of epic proportions. Recent experience has taught us that the more grindingly regimented and absurd American life becomes, the more America deserves it. After all, what disturbs most here is not the reaction of the school, which is about as shocking as the sun rising in the east. What disturbs is that after their child was suspended and subjected to a forced psychological examination, the parents’ response was to meekly ask that their child be transferred to another government school in the same district. Such a move belies the alleged outrage that the father mustered up for the reporter who wrote the story. Had the father been truly outraged, he would have pulled his child out of school and placed him in an institution run by sane people. Or perhaps even home schooled him. However, if this family is like the typical American family, private schooling and home schooling are simply too onerous and inconvenient when money and time must be spent on far more important items such as plasma televisions and trips to Walt Disney World. Plus, educating children is such a tedious bore. Why not let the government do it? The education of children is a distant 5th or 6th on the priority list of middle-class Americans who whiled away the bubble years racking up credit-card debt to finance 10,000-calorie meals at Outback Steakhouse while purchasing a shiny new SUV every 18 months. Such families were, however, sure to buy houses they couldn’t afford in a “good” school district where the tots would have the opportunity to be suspended, arrested, and psychologically examined for bringing a boy scout pen knife to a shiny and expensive prison-school rather than one of the dilapidated prison-schools. Besides, what kid wouldn’t rather be ball-tapped in a “highly-ranked” school than in a “low performing” one?  ==================== Teacher Cuts Off Girl's Braid In Front Of Class Police Issue Teacher $175 Ticket For Disorderly Conduct POSTED: 4:54 pm CST December 11, 2009 UPDATED: 10:21 pm CST December 11, 2009 WISN, Wisconsin ======================== Police: Teen raped girl, 12, in school stairwell Calif. principal, assistant are placed on paid leave as detectives investigate updated 12:29 a.m. PT, Tues., Dec . 15, 2009 Associated Press EL CERRITO, Calif. - A 14-year-old boy is facing charges, and two school officials are on administrative leave, after authorities say a 12-year-girl was raped in a stairwell at a San Francisco Bay-area school.

Monday, December 14, 2009Last Update: 9:30 AM PT Circuit: Calif. Underpays Foster Care Providers By NICK DIVITO Court House News (CN) - California underpays its foster care providers and is therefore in violation of the federal Child Welfare Act, the 9th Circuit ruled. The San Francisco-based panel said the state's payments of 80 percent or less of the actual cost of care is illegal and insufficient. In determining whether California's 80 percent payment will "cover the cost" of foster care group homes, the circuit decided that a lower court incorrectly determined that California was in compliance with the Child Welfare Act. "The natural meaning of 'cover the cost' is to pay in full, not in part," the panel wrote, adding that the "state isn't doing this." The lawsuit was filed last year by the California Alliance of Child and Family Services, which represents group homes in California. It claimed that rate increases were withheld during 14 of the last 19 years, and the state was only funding care at 77 percent of costs. "That percentage would have been even lower had another federal judge not recently blocked a proposed 10 percent reduction in reimbursements paid by the state," Alliance said in a statement. "This is the first time that a court has declared that a state must cover the cost of foster care if it receives federal funds under the Child Welfare Act," Alliance Executive Director Carroll Schroeder said. "While this isn't the final answer to our effort to properly fund the care to which these kids are entitled ... 80 percent isn't 'substantial' when it comes to providing for kids whose needs cannot be met in family settings because of behavioral issues or severe emotional trauma." The case goes back to the district judge to decide how the state should remedy its alleged failure to comply with the Child Welfare Act's requirements of states receiving federal matching

Milwaukee child welfare system can learn from Pittsburgh area Allegheny County system builds trust by keeping kids with families By Gina Barton of the Journal Sentinel Posted: Dec. 14, 2009 Pittsburgh — "It takes a village to raise a child." That line is (mindlessly) repeated over and over by child welfare advocates across the country. But officials in Allegheny County, Pa., have done more than just talk. They have spent the past 13 years building that village one neighborhood at a time. "The first step has to be: Your child welfare agency has to build trust. You've got to prove you're not simply there to take people's kids away.

Because the system doesn't know how. Child prostitutes get little help after rescue, experts say The recent rescue of 52 children from "sexual slavery" during a nationwide crackdown on child prostitution failed to do much to treat the young abuse victims or protect them from predators.

"If you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed, if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly, you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a small chance of survival. There may even be a worse case: you may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Winston Churchill

The WAR  on the Family

Poor Children Likelier to Get Antipsychotics By DUFF WILSON Published: December 11, 2009 New York Times New federally financed drug research reveals a stark disparity: children covered by Medicaid are given powerful antipsychotic medicines at a rate four times higher than children whose parents have private insurance. And the Medicaid children are more likely to receive the drugs for less severe conditions than their middle-class counterparts, the data shows. Those findings, by a team from Rutgers and Columbia, are almost certain to add fuel to a long-running debate. Do too many children from poor families receive powerful psychiatric drugs not because they actually need them — but because it is deemed the most efficient and cost-effective way to control problems that may be handled much differently for middle-class children? The questions go beyond the psychological impact on Medicaid children, serious as that may be. Antipsychotic drugs can also have severe physical side effects, causing drastic weight gain and metabolic changes resulting in lifelong physical problems. On Tuesday, a pediatric advisory committee to the Food and Drug Administration met to discuss the health risks for all children who take antipsychotics. The panel will consider recommending new label warnings for the drugs, which are now used by an estimated 300,000 people under age 18 in this country, counting both Medicaid patients and those with private insurance. Meanwhile, a group of Medicaid medical directors from 16 states, under a project they call Too Many, Too Much, Too Young, has been experimenting with ways to reduce prescriptions of antipsychotic drugs among Medicaid children. They plan to publish a report early next year.  FULL STORY This is the PANDEMIC FRAUD we have been screaming about for 10 years.  CPS and their contractor Mental Illness Clinicians are into this to their eyeballs and we easily call it an Organized Crime Ring.  Definitely see our pals at the CCHR.  Also see Doping the Kids- The Pharmacaust

"This bill is breathtaking in its scope and reflects a perverse level of suspicion towards parents who home-educate their children," said Michael Donnelly, a staff attorney and director of international relations for the Home School Legal Defense Association. The group is the world's premiere advocate for homeschooling and has been active in cases in Europe as well as the U.S. Donnelly said the bill "places total discretion in the hands of local education officials to determine whether or not they will 'register' a home education program and would require criminal background checks for parents before they could begin homeschool their own children."  FULL STORY

At a press conference today DHS spokesman Ernest Konnyu stated "The academic criminal justice community, the law enforcement community, and the policy world have spent decades studying the Bogeyman phenomenon," and added that the rapid increase of unsolved child disappearances over the last decade is alarming.

Martha Coakley: Too Immoral for Teddy Kennedy's Seat By Ann Coulter 12/9/2009 In Tuesday's primary election, Massachusetts Democrats chose as their Senate nominee a woman who kept a clearly innocent man in prison in order to advance her political career. Martha Coakley isn't even fit for the late Teddy Kennedy's old seat. (What is it about this particular Senate seat?) During the daycare/child molestation hysteria of the '80s, Gerald Amirault, his mother, Violet, and sister, Cheryl, were accused of raping children at the family's preschool in Malden, Mass., in what came to be known as the second-most notorious witch trial in Massachusetts history. The allegations against the Amiraults were preposterous on their face. Children made claims of robots abusing them, a "bad clown" who took the children to a "magic room" for sex play, rape with a 2-foot butcher knife, other acts of sodomy with a "magic wand," naked children tied to trees within view of a highway, and -- standard fare in the child abuse hysteria era -- animal sacrifices. There was not one shred of physical evidence to support the allegations -- no mutilated animals, no magic rooms, no butcher knives, no photographs, no physical signs of any abuse on the children.

The lawsuits -- filed Friday and Monday -- offer excruciating, never-before-public details into the lives of the little girl then known as Jordan Knapp and her younger brother, who have since been adopted. Five years ago this week, the Sandy-area girl was flown by Life Flight helicopter to OHSU Hospital with a broken skull. She was 5 years old and weighed 28 pounds, a weight so low it isn't listed on growth charts for children of that age.

Vonda Ferguson sentenced to 65 years in prison for child abuse By Valerie Lough, Staff Writer Dayton Daily News Updated 6:30 PM Monday, December 7, 2009 SPRINGFIELD, Ohio — Vonda Ferguson, convicted last month on 32 child abuse related charges, was sentenced to 65 years in prison in Clark County Common Pleas Court Monday, Dec. 7. Ferguson, 46, was found guilty Nov. 20 of 20 counts of child endangering, two counts of rape and five counts each of permitting child abuse and felonious assault. She received the same sentence as her husband, James, 49, who was convicted last year of 26 counts of child endangering, felonious assault and permitting child abuse. One of the Ferguson children, Sherita Lee, 19, said it was difficult for her to forgive Vonda Ferguson. “I go to church ... and God forgave a lot of people, too,” said Lee. She spoke in open court and with reporters after the sentencing. Ferguson and her attorney, Jim Marshall, declined to comment. Ferguson was accused of using extreme forms of punishment on her five adopted children — hitting them with hammers and belts until they bled, forcing them to eat excrement and burning them with irons — between 2000 and 2004. Prosecuting attorney David Phillips had asked Common Pleas Judge Richard O’Neill for 85 years, but said he was satisfied with the 65-year sentence. “(Ferguson) will serve the rest of her life in prison,” said Phillips.   FULL STORY

Posted: 6:36 PM Dec 7, 2009 West Virginia Lawmakers Weigh Child Welfare Watchdog With West Virginia recently ranking fifth nationwide for substantiated cases of child abuse or neglect, some lawmakers plan to pursue a new watchdog agency. Reporter: Associated Press CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) - With West Virginia recently ranking fifth nationwide for substantiated cases of child abuse or neglect, some lawmakers plan to pursue a new watchdog agency. Draft legislation endorsed Monday by a joint interim committee would create an independent office of child advocacy. The office would monitor the state's handling of abuse, neglect and related cases, with the power to intervene when necessary. It is modeled on a Rhode Island program backed by the American Bar Association. Several states have adopted that model, including Georgia. West Virginia lawmakers may draw from that example as well. The bill would debut during the 2010 session in January. The Legislature is also weighing ways to strengthen the state's existing child protection agency.

Under federal law, threatening a Member of Congress or other federal official is a felony, punishable by up to six years in prison.  There are no clear guidelines on what exactly is against the law, but law enforcement officials say that wording is crucial.

WHAT'S THE DEAL? By Selena Owens December 4, 2009 NewsWithViews.com ....The deal that all Americans currently receive is not good, not good at all. The financial future of our children and grandchildren is already prematurely saddled with a debt that they cannot possibly repay. This is the “deal” that our government made on its own accord-a deal that we were not participants in, yet, incredibly, are expected to tolerate. Did you sign up for this deal? I ask, because the deal that has been shoved at us is way more than just a by-product of the previous administration, as is always blamed. This quandary is monumental, and we still have no idea just how bad the deal really is. It looks bad; it smells worse. To begin with, each newborn taking his or her first breath of life is basically being handed a receipt of debt, courtesy of our government’s erroneously titled stimulus package. This scenario might appear whimsical, but it’s the truth of the matter- and it’s a shame. Going forward, that individual must now live a life under a guise of liberty and freedom, both of which have been assaulted by our “leaders” without any consideration of future generations. How can a person truly be free if the nation that he or she is a citizen of has bankrolled his or her financial future? Americans are in Possession of the Only Deal that Matters How can the government ignore the only deal that matters in America: The United States Constitution? America is in possession of the most powerful legal document in our nation’s history—if not the world—and our so-called leaders seek to undermine, and, ultimately, abolish it in favor of it becoming a “living document.” If they succeed, the Constitution of the United States will continually “evolve”, and be a servant to the whims of a depraved administration, and society, in order to legalize behaviors and lifestyles that are adverse to the general public.  FULL STORY "It is the absolute DUTY of every generation, above EVERY other thing they may think important; to pass on to their children and their posterity, clean limited constitutional government and NO DEBT"-- Roger Weidner

Plundering California by Steven Greenhut December 4, 2009 Copyright © 2009 City Journal The economy is struggling, the unemployment rate is high, and many Americans are struggling to pay the bills, but one class of Americans is doing quite well: government workers. Their pay levels are soaring, they enjoy unmatched benefits, and they remain largely immune from layoffs, except for some overly publicized cutbacks around the margins. To make matters worse, government employees – thanks largely to the power of their unions – have carved out special protections that exempt them from many of the rules that other working Americans must live by. California has been on the cutting edge of this dangerous trend, which has essentially turned government employees into a special class of citizens.  FULL STORY I emailed Steve- Loved your article "Plundering California". You might be interested in pursuing the concept of NOMENKLATURA. I have preserved the writings of  G. Arthur Morrison.  Of particular interest is his essay "The New Class: An American Nomenklatura" "Nomenklatura is the word used by Michael Voslensky in his brilliant book of the same title to identify the ruling elites in the Soviet Union who lived in an unreal world, unconnected from any kind of normalcy in their society. They lived in secured enclaves, attended elite schools, shopped at opulent stores open only to them, imported Western physicians to care for them, and lived lives of promiscuity and conspicuous consumption. In short, they governed with fantasyland ideas implemented ruthlessly, and lived fantasyland lives when they left the Ministries." That's pretty much what they are.

Sheriff's deputies in Pueblo, Colorado, Tasered a 10-year-old boy after arriving at the child's home Monday evening, after the boy had threatened them with a stick and a length of pipe. As of Thursday evening, the boy remained in a youth jail, according to KCNC channel 4 in Denver. The deputies involved described the boy as an "out-of-control juvenile." The Colorado incident follows a similar case last month, when a 10-year-old girl in Ozark, Arkansas, was Tasered after kicking an approaching officer in the groin. In that case, the girl's mother had suggested to the officer that he use a Taser. While the foster father of the Colorado boy didn't recommend using the Taser, he did support the officers' decision.

Statewide survey shows "ball tapping" problem widespread Posted: Nov 24, 2009 3:33 PM PST Updated: Nov 25, 2009 8:22 AM PST Bob Segall/13 Investigates It's a disturbing game with devastating consequences, and a new WTHR survey suggests it is rampant in Indiana schools. "Ball tapping" is the act of intentionally hitting or kicking a male in the genitals. Earlier this month, an Eyewitness News investigation showed the game has become commonplace in some area schools, resulting in serious injuries for students. As part of the investigation, WTHR also conducted a statewide survey of school nurses. The results are in, and they show the problem of ball tapping is more common and widespread than many school officials had realized.  FULL STORY Pretty much what society has been doing to males for the past 40 years.

H1N1 Vaccine Causing Rare Disease Health Freedom Alliance November 30, 2009 Arare and dangerous disease is on the rise since since the start of H1N1 Swine flu vaccinations. It’s called Guillain-Barre syndrome, also known as GBS. There is a history of GBS being tied to the H1N1 vaccine. During the 1976 swine flu scare, officials vaccinated 45 million people, and of that number, almost 1,100 developed GBS. One boy recently developed GBS shortly after receiving the H1N1 flu shot. He went from playing tennis and basketball to needing a walker to cross the room. Health officials say they are carefully monitoring the H1N1 vaccine program for any dangerous side effects, including a very rare syndrome known as Guillain-Barre syndrome, also known as GBS. However, CBS News medical correspondent Dr. Jennifer Ashton reported GBS has been cropping up this year, possibly in connection with the H1N1 vaccine. She shared the story of one young man who developed GBS, and why his parents think it may be related to the H1N1 vaccine. Jordan McFarland, an athletic 14-year-old, was weeks ago playing tennis and basketball. Now he needs a walker to move from room to room. McFarland told CBS News, “It’s an aching, but it’s also a pain that I can’t describe.” Doctors told McFarland’s parents he has GBS, a rare illness where the immune system attacks the nervous system. GBS is treatable, Ashton said, but can cause paralysis, and requires months of physical therapy to recover. McFarland’s family believes the H1N1 vaccine is to blame, Ashton said. Just one day after he received both the seasonal and H1N1 flu vaccine, he was hospitalized. Doctors have not confirmed whether his case is directly linked, but there is a history of GBS being tied to the H1N1 vaccine. During the 1976 swine flu scare, officials vaccinated 45 million people, and of that number, almost 1,100 developed GBS, Ashton said. Dr. Anthony Fauci, of the National Institutes of Health, told CBS News, “If you really look at the scientific data, it is unclear why that happened.”  FULL STORY Of course, this is the same "science" as Global Warming.  Also see our compilation of Flu Stories in 2009 (some highly useful info you don't want to forget about)

Wrong Child Picked Up From School A young girl was picked up from school by a woman she didn't know. It was all done with the school's OK. By Donna Willis | Web Content Coordinator Published: November 30, 2009 Updated: November 30, 2009 NBC4i COLUMBUS, Ohio—A young girl was picked up from school by a woman she didn’t know. Her mother had no idea where she was. It was all done with the school’s OK. A worker with Franklin County Children Services (was supposed to have) picked up a Duxberry Park Elementary kindergartner who was in foster care (this is why foster kids get such a poor education) and took her to its headquarters on Mound Street on Nov. 17. FCCS had the wrong girl, and the girl’s mother spent the afternoon trying to figure out what happened to her daughter. NBC 4’s Mike Bowersock dug deeper with a story you’ll see only on NBC 4. When Savannah Williams didn’t come home from school one afternoon, you can guess how her mother felt. “Where is she? I called the principal. She said she wasn’t in the school building, and she said, ‘Well, maybe she fell asleep on the bus,‘ “ Ebony Williams said. That wasn’t the case. Savannah wasn’t on the bus and hadn’t been. For an hour and a half, Ebony was on the phone trying to find out her daughter’s whereabouts. Then Ebony was told Savannah left in a car with someone else. It went from bad to worse. “Of course, I was freaking out, just worried about who she got in the car with,“ Ebony said. Savannah was given to a social worker with FCCS who came to the school to pick up another kindergarten girl also named Savannah but with a different last name. “They figured out they had the wrong child. They looked on the sign-out sheet cause when you sign out a child, you have to sign your name and the child’s name and it had the other child’s name,“ Ebony said. At about the same time, Savannah was already at FCCS with a confused (Newspeak for incompetent and clueless) case worker. Ebony was on her way to FCCS when she received a phone call from FCCS saying Savannah was being brought to her home. FCCS apologized. Ebony said there’s no way this should have happened. NBC 4 spoke with Columbus City Schools late Monday afternoon. “This is a very unfortunate (criminal) incident. We take the security of our students very seriously. (BS) We are examining exactly what took place and will take appropriate actions to prevent this from happening again,“ district spokeswoman Kim Norris said. Such as stop letting CPS terrorists kidnap kids at school?

Climate-cult con is hard to 'bear' Last Updated: 6:00 AM, November 30, 2009 Posted: 3:16 AM, November 30, 2009 Andrea Peyser New York Post When did global warming turn into a forced religion? My daughter came home from school recently with a spring in her step and a song on her lips. With no foreshadowing -- or time to call an exorcist -- out came this chilling refrain: " . . . You can hear the warning -- GLOBAL WARMING . . . " By the time her father and I removed our jaws from the floor, we had learned that: A) All the kids had been coerced into singing this catchy ditty, which we called "The Warming Song," at a concert for parents. B) Further song lyrics scolded selfish adults (that would be us) for polluting our planet and causing a warming scourge that would, in no short order, kill all the polar bears and threaten the birds and bees. C) There was no deprogramming session on the menu. And no arguing allowed. The international "Climategate" scandal is now moving into its third week. And reaction from folks on the scientific and political left -- or is that redundant? -- who treat global warming as a cult in which naysayers must be crushed has been depressing: Total denial.  Read more

THE NEWS ON ONE CLICK Paedophiles Allowed To Continue As UK Social Workers 30 November 2009 Social workers who abused children were left free to carry on working because of critical failings by the watchdog in charge of them Hundreds of social services staff accused of disciplinary breaches, including paedophile offences, were left free to look after vulnerable people while decisions about whether they should be suspended or struck off were delayed. Hearings into their cases were put off for months, and in some cases years, so that the regulator could delay paying the costs. Some of the most serious cases were abandoned with "little or no" investigation, by staff who felt under pressure to shelve cases regardless of the dangers to the public. Among the social workers who remained free to work for months after allegations were lodged with the GSCC were individuals who were later struck off for sexually abusing their own children, or for repeated attacks on young girls in care homes.

Civil cases against judges involve emotional suffering By William Ecenbarger For The Philadelphia Inquirer Posted on Mon, Nov. 30, 2009 WILKES-BARRE - There's the 16-year-old boy charged with driving without a license and presenting false identification to police in 2007. He was jailed for eight months, and during that time the court garnisheed a $598 Social Security survivor's check he had been receiving since his father's death. There's the 14-year-old boy who stole loose change from unlocked cars and was sent away in 2007 for a year; when he was released, he was so anxious and depressed he had to drop out of school and now receives homebound instruction. There's the 14-year-old girl who was jailed for more than a year in 2005 for punching another girl in school; she was emotionally distraught by the incarceration and today has permanent scars from self-mutilation. They are among the victims cited in a class-action suit by the Philadelphia-based Juvenile Law Center against two former Luzerne County judges who, federal prosecutors say, conspired to send thousands of teenagers off to detention after denying them basic constitutional rights. As a result of their incarcerations, the JLC says, many of the teenagers suffered emotional damage, were unable to attend school, lost scholarships, were refused military enlistment, or attempted suicide. In addition, they and their parents were forced to pay probation fees and evaluation costs and had their wages garnisheed by the court. Some still owe the court money.  FULL STORY This is obviously the case with MOST children kidnapped by CPS.  This needs to become a Class Action against the entire system, because the corruption is pandemic.

I could not help wondering and worrying whether we were faced with open enemies across the conference table and hidden enemies who sat with us in our most secret councils." --General Mark Clark (1896-984) American general during World War II and the Korean War Source: From the Danube to the Yalu (1954) "The Communists could succeed if we ever let ourselves be lulled into thinking that they are no longer dangerous to us externally and internally. They would be victorious if we were ever duped by their own nationals or by foolish Americans -- if we were ever duped into believing that they are not aggressive, atheist socialist imperialists. They have proved they never sleep. They have never permanently retreated, and what seems at a particular time to be a cessation of their forward movement or a change in their designs is nothing more than a tactical maneuver on another front." --Kenneth D.

READ THE NEWS ON ONE CLICK December 1 2009 Governments Spend Swine Flu Panic Billions On Common Cold Most cases believed to be H1N1 are actually the common cold or another  flu-like bug (Caption & Pic courtesy Of One Click & Globe Mail combo) Public health officials are warning the wave of H1N1 this fall is not nearly as widespread as suspected. Last week in Ontario, fewer than one in four cases of suspected H1N1 tested positive in laboratory analysis. In British Columbia, the rate was one in three. The rest, based on samples, were mostly rhinovirus – the common cold – and enterovirus, a common flu-like bug. “We have been notoriously inaccurate,” said Michael Gardam, director of infectious disease prevention at Ontario's Agency for Health Protection and Promotion. That means thousands of cases of suspected H1N1 could be something else entirely. Even when the second wave of the virus was peaking a month ago, only half of the cases tested positive when examined in a lab.

Pink-slipping Congress wipes out paper supplies Mills ramping up to make more, all designated for campaign Posted: November 30, 2009 9:57 pm Eastern © 2009 WorldNetDaily For a second time, the supplies of pink paper have been wiped out across North America by a true grass-roots campaign to send pink slips to members of Congress, warning them against support for the health-care takeover, big spending, hate-crimes legislation and energy taxes. WND got notification today of the shortage – which already is being resolved – from the printer of pink slips that have been streaming into Capitol Hill by the millions. The latest count was more than 8 million. "The WND pink slip campaign has wiped out ALL Hammermill pink paper supplies in North America," said a campaign official. "All pink paper resources throughout the country were pooled to ship to our printer for production of pink slips. "Other than small quantities already in stock at print shops and retail outlets, no other pink paper is available for purchase since it is currently on backorder," the official continued. "Hammermill's mills are ramping up to manufacture more pink paper, ALL designated for WND."  FULL STORY Now if we could figure out a way to wipe out all the Goldenrod color paper.

ClimateGate scandal demonstrates intellectual protectionism of modern scientists Monday, November 30, 2009 by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger Editor of NaturalNews.com (NaturalNews) The inconvenient release of private email conversations among climate change scientists has been a boon for climate change skeptics. What emerges from the leaked emails is a depiction of a group of scientists who practice "intellectual protectionism" -- meaning they know they're right and they'll do anything to protect their beliefs, even if it means hiding or manipulating data. Sound familiar? Scientists in the pharmaceutical industry have been practicing this for decades. If you think the ClimateGate emails are revealing, just imagine what kind of similar emails are flying around between Big Pharma scientists who routinely manipulate study data and commit scientific fraud in the name of medicine. Time and time again, we see revelations of manipulated clinical trials where data was intentionally distorted in order to make a dangerous, useless drug appear to be safe and effective. What ClimateGate scientists and Big Pharma scientists have in common is that they have both abandoned the core principles of good science in their quest to be right. Rather than asking questions of nature and humbly listening to the answers provided by the data, these scientists have staked out a position and decided to defend that position at all costs -- even if it requires hiding or distorting data! That approach is entirely unscientific, of course. In my mind, it now puts much of the recent global warming science in the same category as Big Pharma's research: Pure quackery.  FULL STORY Also see Doping the Kids- The Pharmacaust

CHINS law is outdated By Bonny Saulnier/Guest columnist GHS Posted Nov 29, 2009 @ 12:16 AM Massachusetts- No child should need to go to juvenile court to get mental health treatment; no child can get effective treatment in isolation from family issues. Yet that is what happens daily in Massachusetts, where experts estimate that eight out of 10 young people in the juvenile justice system have serious emotional disturbance, often acting out deep stresses in their families, and where spending on corrections has increased 121 percent in the past eight years. These issues cry out for reform of the Massachusetts Child In Need of Services (CHINS) statute. We need to treat not punish young people with mental health conditions. The CHINS law enacted in 1973 had good intentions: separate non-criminal, youth matters (truancy, unruliness) from criminal offenses, and allow parents to petition for help in stopping troublesome behavior. But with diminished funding in the 1980s-90s and evidence pointing to the necessity of engaging families as part of treatment, CHINS lost efficacy. The CHINS process has been reduced to serving as gateway into the Department of Children and Families (DCF), assignment of a probation officer to monitor behavior, and - too often - court-ordered, out of home placement.  FULL STORY

NC same-gender adoption case continues Charlie Butts - OneNewsNow - 11/29/2009 4:15:00 AM Several organizations are asking the North Carolina Supreme Court to review a lower-court decision permitting same-gender adoption. The court ruled in a case involving two lesbians, one of whom is State Senator Julia Boseman (D-New Hanover). Boseman's partner Melissa Jarrell had a baby through artificial insemination and permitted Boseman to adopt the child. Child custody became a factor when the couple split up and the natural mother wanted Boseman, her former partner, out of the picture. The North Carolina Court of Appeals granted custody to Boseman.   "Basically this case just represents the craziness in our laws when we go against God's moral law and open up our courts and our institutions to this kind of ridiculous behavior," notes Barbara Weller of the Christian Law Association.   Homosexual "marriage" is not legal in North Carolina, and Weller feels that the problem rests in the state's adoption policy as she reports that "North Carolina has a wide range of adoptions that are contemplated and permitted, so they don't care if it's two men or two women or a single parent or people who are living together." Weller concludes the carelessness on the court's behalf is not good for the children or for society as a whole.  FULL STORY Of course, political power had nothing to do with the custody decision, either.  At least, no man had to take the absurd Silver Bullet for this freak show.

The European Union had asked Romania as far back as 2000 to stop exporting its children as there was not only plenty of evidence of irregularities within the way foreign adoptions were being conducted, but also these forms of adoptions hampered the childcare reforms which saw the closure of the old style orphanages and gave children their rights back.  FULL STORY Perhaps "The Child's Best Interest" ISN'T being kidnapped by government and SOLD.

Teaching plan: America 'an oppressive hellhole' University outlines 're-education' for those who hold 'wrong' views Posted: November 27, 2009 9:15 pm Eastern By Bob Unruh © 2009 WorldNetDaily A program proposed at the University of Minnesota would result in required examinations of teacher candidates on "white privilege" as well as "remedial re-education" for those who hold the "wrong" views, according to the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education. The organization, which promotes civil liberties on the campuses of America's colleges and universities, has dispatched a letter to University of Minnesota President Robert Bruininks asking him to intervene to prevent the adoption of policies proposed in his College of Education and Human Development. "The university's general counsel should be asked to comment as soon as possible," said the letter from Adam Kissel, an officer with The FIRE. "If the Race, Culture, Class, and Gender Task Group achieves its stated goals, the result will be political and ideological screening of applicants, remedial re-education for those with the 'wrong' views and values, [and] withholding of degrees from those upon whom the university's political reeducation efforts proved ineffective." By any "non-totalitarian" standards, he wrote, the the plans being made so far by the school are "severely unjust and impermissibly intrude into matters of individual conscience." Kissel wrote that it appears that the university "intends to redesign its admissions process so that it screens out people with the 'wrong' beliefs and values – those who either do not have sufficient 'cultural competence' or those who the college judges will not be able to be converted to the 'correct' beliefs and values even after remedial re-education."  FULL STORY Anybody read Orwell's "1984" lately?
