Remember when you were told that the Democrat Party was "for the little people, for the working folks of the USA ? "

Robert F. Kennedy (on Tucker Carlson) now says NO to that...and elaborates that “There’s been an inversion now where the Republican Party has become the party of the common man, of working people, of the middle class..."

Chick-fil-A Caves to LGBT

They are cutting ties to several Christian charities after facing increasing backlash from LGBT groups that have painted the popular fast-food chain of being bigoted and homophobic.

Chick-fil-A announced Monday that they are canceling their annual donations to the Salvation Army, the Paul Anderson Youth Home, and the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, saying that going forward with plans for expansion, the restaurant wanted to “be clear about our message.”

A spokesperson said that the company met its promised $9 million annual obligation to the charities in 2018, but will be discontinuing its contributions going forward.

“There’s no question we know that, as we go into new markets, we need to be clear about who we are,” said Chick-fil-A President and Chief Operating Officer Tim Tassopoulos. “There are lots of articles and newscasts about Chick-fil-A, and we thought we needed to be clear about our message.”
“When there is a tension, we want to make sure we’re being clear. We think this is going to be helpful,” Tassopoulos continued. “It’s just the right thing to do: to be clear, caring, and supportive and do it in the community.”

Instead of donating to the faith-based charities, Chick-fil-A now says they will focus on contributing to “education, homelessness and hunger.”

According to most survey results, well less than 5% of the U.S. Population is LGTB.

Well less than 5% of the U.S. Population can now scare a popular, major corporation from making donations to Christian Charities ... !!!

So for me ... (even though I've been a fan of Chick-fil-A for many years ) ... I'm not going back to Chick -fil-A anywhere in the U.S. until I hear that Chick-fil-A President and Chief Operating Officer Tim Tassopoulos announces that Chick-fil-A announces publicly that they are re-instituting their previous policy regarding Donations to Christian Charities.

Please help spread the word.

Well, that’s it, folks. The crazy liberal mafia has finally gotten to Chick-fil-A.

November is NATIONAL DIABETES MONTH.

Early Detection Can Minimize Diabetic Foot Problems

More than 16 Million people in the US have diabetes, and almost half are unaware of their condition.

Did you know that Diabetes often manifests in the feet months or years BEFORE the actual diagnosis is made ?

What are some early signs and symptoms in the feet that might indicate Diabetes ?
• Burning, stinging, or tingling sensations in the feet (especially if worse in the evenings or during night-time hours).
• Sharp, lightening-like pains in the feet that often feel like electric shocks or knife-like pain (especially if they occur suddenly without warning).
• Numbness (especially on the sole of your feet) compared to other areas on your arms or legs.
• Constant feeling of coldness in your feet.
• Aching in your leg muscles after walking a distance that you used to walk without difficulty.
• Sores that arise on your toes, feet, ankles, or lower legs (especially if the sores are slow to heal, or easily become infected).

It is imperative that diabetic patients seek help for chronic foot conditions to avoid long-term complications.

Other signs and symptoms of diabetes can include:
• staying thirsty all the time
• frequent urination
• fatigue
• changes in vision
• episodes of slurred speech
• itching all over
• irritability and / or mood changes.

As Podiatric Surgeons, Doctors Albritton and Bogoian at Abilene Family Foot Center are trained and experienced in recognizing early on that many diabetic foot problems are preventable with the proper education and daily inspection of your own feet.

These doctors are dedicated to treating these diabetic foot problems with innovative techniques, precisely to help prevent amputation of a toe, foot, or leg.

Next time, we’ll look at the first of Two Major Foot Problems found in persons with diabetes : Neuropathy

Remember this about your feet :

The illegal immigrant caravan has now swelled to 7,000 to 9,000 people.

The Mexican government failed to stop these people. Instead of arresting these illegal aliens, the Mexican police is now giving them a security es**rt. When the media's cameras are out, the illegal migrants stand side-by-side, ten people across. Their ranks now stretch for two miles down the road.

When the media turns the cameras off, they hop in busses and pickup trucks to make up as much ground as possible.
It is a race against the clock. They know they need to reach the border before Trump mobilizes the military.
Organizers are hoping to grow the caravan to tens of thousands of people over the next couple of days, and more migrants are leaving Central American countries to try to join up with them.
President Trump is doing everything everything in his power to stop the caravan, even mobilizing the Army and Marines to close the border. I hope he CLOSES THE BORDER !!!
The caravan is marching forwards and is FUNDED BY democrat BIG DONERS.
This is an invasion of our Souther Border.
The pressure has never been this great.
Every American citizen needs to VOTE in this election.
The Invasion of America must be stopped. Your vote in the election will help empower President Trump to do what is necessary to stop this invasion.
PLEASE VOTE

FDA Approves 'Female Vi**ra' Flibanserin (Addyi)
August 18, 2015
After a long and controversial process, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the first-ever drug aimed at boosting female libido.
Flibanserin (Addyi) — also known as "Female Vi**ra" or "Pink Vi**ra" — will be marketed by Sprout Pharmaceuticals. It is approved to treat premenopausal women. The nonhormonal therapy — a 5-hydroxytryptophan (HT)(1A) receptor agonist and 5-HT(2A) receptor antagonist — was approved for hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD). Sprout said that up to one in 10 women have HSDD.
The once-daily 100-milligram tablet is to be taken at bedtime, and alcohol use will be contraindicated due to common side effects including drowsiness and dizziness.

Dear Senator Cruz,

I'm both outraged and depressed that SCOTUS has helped Obamacare once again...!

The liberally dominated Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that even though Congress limited subsidies to exchanges established by the state, the judges believe that Congress really meant to give the subsidies to everyone.

I say a BIG TEXAS BS.

Here’s what Justice Roberts wrote: “In this instance, the context and the structure of the Act compel us to depart from what would otherwise be the most natural reading of the pertinent statutory phrase.”

That reading clearly states that taxpayer money only goes to exchanges that states establish. Taxpayer money is withheld from exchanges that these tax dollars are already being used to prop up.

Thank goodness for Justice Scalia who, in his dissent, wrote that the Affordable Care Act should now be known as SCOTUScare. He's absolutely right.

Senator, I know that many Members of Congress, and many Senators are breathing a sigh of relief. Now you don't need to do anything to fix Obamacare, right?

Wrong!

The majority of Americans want Obamacare repealed, no matter what the liberally voting members of the Supreme Court say. Personally, I view Justice Roberts as a traitor to conservative justice.

As I told you in a very recent paper missive, I'm a Physician in Abilene, TX, who recently made the painful decision to NO LONGER ACCEPT ANY NEW MEDICARE patients because of the devastation Obamacare has wrecked on Medicare.

Good doctors are retiring faster than anyone can keep up with, and even though I'm not yet 62, I'm considering early retirement.
I have more than 22,000 patients in my practice.

If I retire early, I hope all 22,000 will protest to POTUS, Congress, and SCOTUS over what they have done to desimate quality health care delivery here in the US.

Congress MUST repeal and replace Obamacare!
