It is the day the Obama White House hoped to have three million Americans sign up for Obamacare since the Healthcare.gov website was launched on October 1. So far, only about 1.1 million individuals have signed on to receive healthcare insurance through the un-Affordable non-Care Act. According to Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-DC), the only non-voting member of Congress, the disappointing number of individuals who have signed up for Obamacare is because of Republicans."

Is A Full-Scale Terrorist Attack On U.S. Power Stations Imminent? | Freedom Outpost

Is A Full-Scale Terrorist Attack On U.S. Power Stations Imminent? | Freedom Outpost: "The possibility of terrorists attacking U.S. electrical power facilities is not a new concept. An Electromagnetic Pulse weapon (EMP) would be the perfect device to completely send America back to the 19th century. Not only would an EMP device make power stations worthless, but this kind of a device would virtually shut down all communication capabilities within the United States. Late model cars would be unable to start, planes would fall from the sky. An EMP is the by-product of a nuclear weapon detonated above the earth’s atmosphere. The explosion releases gamma rays, creating a catastrophic electrical disturbance. But what if all this time a more simplistic and hands-on attack would be what brings the United States to its knees? This is the reality. An event that occurred in California in April proves that American power stations are wide open and completely vulnerable to incoming terrorist attacks."

Glenn Beck Makes a Very Exciting Offer to the Cast of ‘Duck Dynasty’ | TheBlaze.com: "Duck Dynasty on TheBlaze” has a nice ring to it, according to Glenn Beck.

One day after Phil Robertson’s comments about homosexuality earned him an indefinite suspension from the hit series “Duck Dynasty” on A&E, Beck offered the entire Robertson family a place on his own network.

“[All the other networks] will fold to pressure,” he said. “They will all fold to sponsors. They will all fold to money because they are all in over their eyeballs are debt … the only reason why Phil was put on hiatus and not the rest is because it is a money-printing machine.”

Beck said as he sees it, the Robertson family has a choice to make."

The truth is that the polar ice cap is actually growing. It is about 50 percent larger than it was at this time last year. And as you will read about below, a shocking UN report that was recently leaked shows that the planet has actually not been warming for the past 15 years. So if you are breathlessly anticipating that “global warming” will soon bring on the apocalypse, you can stop waiting. "
