Safeway Employee Suspended For Helping a 'Pregnant Woman'
A Safeway employee in Monterey, California, has been suspended from his job for helping a pregnant woman. The woman was in the store with a man who was hitting and pushing her. The employee was concerned for her. He told the man to stop, and he just kept going and it got even worse. So, the employee stepped in and took matters into his own hands.
One would think Safeway would be giving him a pat on the back, but they are suspending him. They say he did not follow protocol. He should have called security and basically waited for security.
So, what would the situation have been if the man had not stepped in? What if this woman had been seriously injured, and he could have prevented it? Would safeway have blamed him for security not showing up on time. The guy was genuinely concerned, and instead of sitting back and letting this aggressive jerk hurt a pregnant woman, the employee took action.
Apparently, protests have been held outside the Del Rey Oaks location. Even so, Safeway is saying, this is not the only reason he is being 'fired' or on suspension. However, no other reasons have been given. If it is true, then Safeway needs to give the other reasons. Of course, if it is true, why was he suspended after what could be considered a 'good samaritan' action?
At this point, it probably does not matter. Safeway will have to face some humiliating stories and maybe customer loss because of this.

North Carolina Teacher Tells Students, "You Can Get Arrested for Talking Bad About the President"
A Rowan-Salisbury high school social studies teacher has gained recognition for her reaction to a student who happens to disagree with her point of view. The teacher apparently posts "facts of the day" in her classroom, and on this particular day, the fact happened to be "Romney is a bully." When the teacher was questioned by the student, who simply asked, "wasn't Obama a bully." The teacher flew off her rocker!
The youtube video is almost 10 minutes of listening to her rant and yell about how Obama is the President and Romney is only running for President. Obama should be respected because he's the President, not Romney. She then later goes on to say that someone could be arrested for being mean or saying something mean about the President, and not be read their Miranda Rights.
Keep in mind, this is a high school social studies teacher. So far no actions have been taken with this teacher. In all rights, she should be suspended or at least put on a probationary period and observed regularly, until she can prove not to be extremely biased and teach the correct laws, instead of making some up to fit her views.
The student tried to have a debate with her, but she did not have it. She kept cutting him off. She acted more like an adolescent than the adolescent, and people wonder why kids do not know U.S. History. After listening to her crazy lady rant, she needs to realize she is biased and maybe rethink her job choice.

Sebelius Gets Interrupted While at Georgetown
According to Lifenews, while giving a speech Sebelius was interrupted by "pro-life protesters." The protesters were escorted out (with no problem), and she continued to speak to the Public Service graduates.
It is no surprise that this happened, after all, there was also a petition against her speaking at the Catholic University. She has been endorsed by Planned Parenthood, did nothing to "reduce" abortions while Governor of Kansas, vetoed an abortion bill that would simply give women more information on the subject before going through with it, supports the controversial free contraception, and has always supported abortion. So, it is no wonder people are upset that a supposedly Christian School would invite someone to speak who's views on life do not line up.
Many Priests have spoken out on the subject, and are just outraged. However, considering the fact that people like Sandra Fluke have gone there and others who share her views teach there, it really is not that shocking. The University seems to be divided, and if it wants to remain a so called Catholic University, perhaps it should stick to hiring staff that share the same views and will adequately teach without liberal bias.

Universities Stop Health Coverage For Students:
Thanks to Obama Mandate
Everyone remembers Sandra Fluke's arguement for contraceptions to be included in Georgetown's health plan. Even though it goes against religious believes. As well as her claims that it is too expensive (which is completely false!). As well as the Obama's administration as to how it can help prevent ovarian cyst and making it sound like a cure all for women. Of course, the main reason is to prevent pregnancy. In terms of the cancer, it is not necessarily a preventative, it can help. Even so, it has also been proven to cause dangerous blood clots and other problems for women.
It's understandable that if a doctor deems that a woman needs birth control for a medical condition, fine. However, to just give out free birth control and say it's free, when the cost will be added somewhere (possibly tuition, which is unfair to those who are not going to use it or do not need it) is not right. It's actually an infringement of the school's rights.
Another point is, while Fluke and others argue for this and its importance, Obamacare does not offer breast cancer screenings or coverage for ovarian cancer. Yet, the supporters want free birth control and say they want to help women. Of course, the other question is, doesn't the beloved Planned Parenthood provide contraceptions for free?
The Universities are not only taking away coverage due to religion, but also because of increased costs. Even so, it must be hard for a private school to be told the plan must cover this and other things, including 'abortion-causing medications.' This should come as no surprise seeing as how one of the first laws signed by Obama was a pro-abortion one, and the fact that Washington has said full term abortion is ok.
This is another way for the administration to control things. For people who preach about separation of church and state, they sure like to infringe on the rights of the church and specific religious beliefs (also in the case of telling chaplains they cannot be a chaplain unless they perform homosexual marriages). In all, this administration has decided to challenge moral and Godly responsibilities, and they have no right to tell a private school or business what to cover. Especially when it is against their religious principles.

Biden 'They Don't Get Us' Speech
Vice President Biden delivered a powerful speech in Ohio, proclaiming the millionaires just don't understand the lower and middle classes. He also talked about jobs coming back, mainly manufacturing jobs. As well as how the wealthy believe the lower class does not want to become rich or have dreams or aspirations.
Talk about a guy who thinks the wealthy don't get it. What does he think he is compared to most middle and lower class working families, someone living below the poverty level? This is a guy that gets to go to all sorts of major fundraisers and rub shoulders with well known millionaires. Yet, he does not like them? Apparently he is okay with them helping the campaign, holding fundraisers, or donating to causes him and Obama deem appropriate, but otherwise, none of the millionaires understand the common American.
In some cases, that might be true. However, in many cases, most of those who are millionaires and billionaires worked for it, in some way. As for everyone deserves a fair share, under this administration no one is getting a fair share. While giving this speech, it was announced Microsoft would be laying off 25,000 employees and other businesses Nation wide continue to lay off or shut down while thise administration brags on how great they are. Even their own green jobs have failed, and still, they had no problem giving a hand out to those heads of the failed company.
As for trying to make it seem as if it's not the Obama administrations fault that jobs are not their for college grads or others who are overly qualified for the positions they are in, or for those who are not being counted as unemployed, is a lie. In some cases it's political due to the green agenda and other wants of the administration. Such was the case with the Daimler plant which actually caused 1000's to loose jobs because of policies and changes the Obama administration wanted to enforce. Then they came in after the plant came back (somewhat) and claimed it a victory for the administration. Unfortunately, the true story came from several workers and it is no where to be found, even though it was featured in several articles in March.
In any case, Biden probably meant that, those millionaire and billionaires who do not give to this administration, 'just don't get us.' Those who do, totally understand.

Jessica Ahlquist Strikes Again!
Atheist Wants Crosses Out
The teenager who successfully had a prayer mural removed from her school (thanks to help from ACLU), is now calling for a Cross to be removed. The cross was built in 1921, and has been dedicated in to WWII soldiers from the area (Woonsocket, Rhode Island). It seems as if Ms. Ahlquist and the atheists are against the cross because it is on public property.
The battle to keep the cross in place has become such a dramatic issue that the town has started a collection fund if a legal battle ensues. It seems as if Ahlquist's attention sparked a desire to rid her entire area of any Christian symbols or anything that would bother her and the atheist in the town. What's next? Getting rid of the churches because they have crosses? Telling people who have crosses, angels, or religious symbols which reference God or Jesus on a grave to take it down because it's offensive? Better still, why not enact a dress code against anything that symbolizes or makes reference to God or Christianity? This is absolutely insane, and even more so than the school issue because even the town is standing behind the cross.
First of all, if she is atheist, these symbols and prayers should have no emotional effect on her or others like her. If she doesn't believe in anything, it should not be a problem. It is sad that anything symbolizing Christianity or God is attacked, yet, many of these people are the same ones that claim they want to coexist. Apparently, they only want to if coexisting means agreeing with them and practicing what they want to be practiced.
Secondly, the establishment clause will probably be used. However, if it is or could be sponsered by a private group or if a sign is displayed that the town does not necessarily agree with the views of the item, then it should be allowed to stay up simply as a memorial (of course, the group would probably still fight it).
Third of all, how heartless are these people? To take a symbol that has done nothing bad to them, is there in rememberance of WWI and WWII soldiers, and turn it into something bad, is pure hatred.
Whatever the case may be, hopefully the town will be able to keep the cross.
