» Ridiculous Obama VA Ambulance Policy Leads to Veteran’s Death

Lead Story by Jennifer Burke, Tea Party News Network (TPNN) —
During recent Congressional hearings conducted by the House Oversight Committee regarding the VA Scandal, Democrats on the committee attempted to deflect any wrongdoing by the VA by placing the blame on a lack of proper funding. This despite the fact that the VA spent billions of taxpayer dollars on excessive bonuses, solar panels, lavish conferences, and conference room and office makeovers. Another recent death of a veteran at the hands of the VA is a clear indication that funding has nothing to do with the issues that have led to the improper care and treatment of our veterans that led to undue pain, suffering, and, for many, death.

OBAMACARE WITH ITS MANDATES KILL

On Thursday, a veteran died at the Albuquerque Veteran Affairs hospital. The man collapsed in the cafeteria, which is only 500 yards away from the emergency room. Rather than someone running and grabbing a gurney to rush the man to the ER, they instead called an ambulance, as was mandated by protocol, and attempted CPR while they waited. Although the ambulance was called immediately after the man collapsed and the ER was less than a five-minute walk from where he was, it took 30 minutes for the ambulance to arrive. By that time, the man was dead.

FOX News reports that VA spokeswoman Sonja Brown, who performed CPR to no avail until the ambulance finally arrived said, “Our policy is under expedited review.”

Meanwhile, a family will be without their loved one on Independence Day because of the inefficiency at the VA that potentially cost a man his life. » Full Article...

» Coming To America: Disease and Violence
Alex Jones’ Infowars —
The threat of widespread livestock and human disease is gripping south Texas. As the Obama administration turns a blind eye toward the imminent threat facing taxpaying Americans, heedful ranch owners have issued a blunt warning for the rest of the United States currently being forced to harbor illegals in their communities. “This has made an awareness to the rest of the country because now the rest of the country is getting these people shipped to their backyards. What’s coming through our backyard is heading to their backyard,” says Texas Border Volunteers Linda Vickers...

» Breaking: Black Minister Admits Votes Were Bought And Sold To Defeat Tea Party
Western Journalism —
This is not over by a long shot...
Things have just turned very sour for the GOP and Democrat Thad Cochran. Angered by the fact that Thad Cochran’s camp stiffed him after he helped them commit a massive voter fraud in the GOP primary, a Black Mississippi minister, the Reverend Stevie Fielder of the First Union Missionary Baptist Church, has come forward to admit his part in the crimes–and he is naming names. Fielder says that, acting in concert with Saleem Baird of the Cochran camp, he agreed to pay $15.00 each to black Democrats who crossed over to vote for Cochran in last month’s runoff against Chris McDaniel. Fielder was to receive $16,000 in return...

Newsmax —
In the nearly 20 months since Mitt Romney lost the election to President Barack Obama, many of the former Massachusetts governor's predictions have played out on the world stage.

As many realities have developed in the U.S. and abroad, Romney's popularity has increased in national polls...

Now The End Begins (NTEB) —
“They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance. For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:” Psalm 83:4,5. Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, leader of the ISIS revolution, swore a vow this week to capture Jerusalem and Rome as he goes about attempting to construct his Muslim caliphate.

In the case of Halbig v. Sebelius, four Americans and three employers are seeking relief from an IRS order in which the tax collectors claim the authority under ObamaCare to impose penalties on individuals and companies located in states without an ObamaCare-approved healthcare “exchange.”...

» Colo. High School Recites Pledge in Arabic: One Nation Under Allah?
Truth Revolt —
One nation under God, became “أمة واحدة تحت الله.”
“As a veteran and a friend of a man killed defending these children in their little games they like to play with our pledge, I’m offended,” wrote Chris Wells on the Daily Coloradoan. “There are things that we don’t mess with – among them are the pledge and our anthem.” Should the Pledge of Allegiance be said only in English? That was the issue raised by parents of Rocky Mountain High School. The school recites the Pledge of Allegiance once a week and on one Monday at the end of January a member of the Cultural Arms Club led the student body in the Arabic version of the pledge and "One nation under God, became “أمة واحدة تحت الله.”...
