The essay was later expanded into a book, On the Justice of Roosting Chickens, which won Honorable Mention for the Gustavus Myers Human Rights Award in 2004.

I watched the video on YouTube of Rod Parsley and am disgusted. Parsley’s diatribe is so far from any smidgen of truth and much more insulting and yet McCain gets a free pass to seek his endorsement and nobody pays attention, least of all the MSM. To be fair, the NY Times has run some editorials on the subject of Hagee, Falwell and McCain, but that’s all they are – editorials. Am I surprised? No. But I am constantly disappointed and disgusted by our so-called “free press”.Check out the Parsley film at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXZbIGJrDkg&eurl=http://bravenewfilms

Also he didn’t really have a dirty bomb. He had a bomb and some stuff to make a radium watch (or it’s inoffensive equivalent) and lastly he was dead so the story was basically over.

The mudane answers most questions. That or Money.

Un hombre en la localidad de Maine ha tratado de confeccionar una bomba, siendo asesinado por su esposa en el intento. La prensa no se ha hecho eco del asunto y el suceso no ha sido objeto de ninguna noticia en los medios de comunicación mayoritarios….

Be very careful how you say things when you start telling other people that their sentences are flawed )

You should look at this because a) almost no one knows about it, although that’s gradually changing, and b) it kills 440,000 people a year.

People like Surgeon-General Everett C. Koop are quoted about this, saying (and I quote) “Tobacco radiation is responsible for 90% of lung cancer.” Center for Disease Control says “”Americans are exposed to far more radiation from tobacco smoke than from any other source.” You probably know about all the fuss about radon; well, this is partly a radon problem.

Tobacco companies switched to a fertilizer called “apatite” around 1930 that was high in phosphates. This made for a much ‘tastier’ cigarette. Unfortunately, it was also high in naturally occurring radioactives. Tobacco plants just love to concentrate this stuff in their leaves, and using phosphate fertilizer year after year builds up the concentration in the soil. These are alpha emitters generally — pretty safe as long as you don’t ingest them or take them in through a cut in your skin.

So we end up with “radon” and “radon daughters”, all radioactives, which then decay down to “polonium-210″, which was what that Russian journalist (Alexander Litvinenko) had put into his drink which fried him from radiation from the inside out, and finally to lead-210.

Do I need to point out that lead is bad for you? We banned lead from paint a long time ago, and more recently, from gasoline, because of this.

If Osama had half a brain, he’d go straight, and open up a tobacco business to whack Americans. But he’s not very bright, when you get right down to it.

No, the primary purpose of government is not to protect its citizenry from the actions of others. Its purpose is to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. Nothing is said about protecting its citizens. Don’t forget that.
