5 Year Old Boy Gets Birthday Surprise Visit From Tuskeegee Airman
The Tuskegee Airmen were the first African American pilots in the U.S. military. They flew in the U.S. Army Air Corps' 332nd Fighter Group and the 477th Bombardment Group during World War II. They painted their P-51 Mustang airplanes' tails red, which is where the name 'Red Tails' comes from.
Yes, I know. Our reactors were at this time (and now) were more advanced (water cooled) than the Soviets and not prone to this type of failure. But TMI showed us that shit could happen.

CHERNOBYL 2011 - 25 years after disaster in nuclear power plant.
Sorry, But 9/11 doesn't even begin to compete with this fuck up in terms of lives lost during and after.
May the Deity of their choice smile down upon them.
BTW, Charles, Thank you for adding the two new categories.
Bet you didn't think I noticed :-)
OOPS!
Guess I did not look close enoutgh. They are still not there
N. Idaho sheriff candidate hosts cross burning
SANDPOINT, Idaho -- A white power activist campaigning to be the next sheriff in a north Idaho county hosted a cross burning last week with fellow members of the Idaho Ku Klux Klan.
Thirty-three-year-old Shaun Winkler is also defending the act, calling it a historic ritual steeped in Christian roots.
Wonder when he is going to break out the white robes and hoods.
*spit*
Also, Charles, would you please add Racism and Bigotry to the choices under Category?
Wingnuts is about as close as I could get from the offered choices.
We have seen this happen in Maine and elsewhere. Now they are going to attempt it here in Idaho. I hope they succeed. Why? Because if they succeed and actually manage to hijack the convention and nominate the crazy uncle, who doesn't stand a chance against President Obama, then maybe, just maybe, the few remaining adults at the State and National level of the GOP will wake up and see just where the TPers and SoCons have taken the Party and start cleaning house.
I am so not holding my breath
Ron Paul backers quietly seek to overturn Mitt Romney's caucus victory in Idaho
'If two-thirds of the delegates to the Idaho State Convention are Ron Paul supporters, they can vote to suspend the rules, overturn the results of the caucus and award all the national delegates to Ron Paul,' Davidson says on YouTube. In recent days, he shut down access to the training video because Romney supporters were using it to counterattack.
// And this is a surprise
The number of measles cases and outbreaks spiked last year, with unvaccinated people making up the majority of those affected, according to a new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
In 2011, there were 222 cases of measles in the United States. That's the highest number of cases reported here in 15 years, and more than triple the number of cases in 2009 and 2010.
And along with the increase in Measles outbreaks, we also have a increase in the number of Pertussis cases. Both easily prevented by vaccination.
When Rep. Cherie Buckner-Webb travels around the country as a management consultant, people are often surprised to learn that there is a black female legislator from Idaho.
Update. KKK denies sending Application form.
BOISE -- A Ku Klux Klan leader says membership applications recently mailed to several Idaho lawmakers didn't come from his group.
I know I predicted that this Bill would probably pass the House. Here is hoping that I will be proven wrong, but,
After a closed-door GOP caucus, House State Affairs Chairman Rep. Tom Loertscher, R-Iona, said the move doesn't mean the bill is dead, but that he couldn't guarantee he would schedule a public hearing.
He is worried about having to face the same People who showed up at the Senate Hearings to protest this piece of Shit Legislation.
gee, why am I.........
I knew these knuckle draggers would pass this stinking pile of Shit.
But, believe it or not, there were at least a couple of sane Republican that voted against it.
'My problem with this bill is it … forces procedures on you whether you wish them or not,' said Sen. Jim Hammond, R-Coeur d'Alene. 'And that's the kind of stuff that raises health care costs.'
Sen. Shawn Keough, R-Sandpoint, also said Idaho was opening itself up to the risk of lawsuits from people claiming the bill is unconstitutional. (No Shit Sherlock).
Bet they get unelected during the next cycle.
And of course we have the usual "Informed Consent" canard.
But Sen. Sheryl Nuxoll, R-Cottonwood, said women deserve more information before making the decision to abort.
'Shouldn't we require information to be provided to women so that they do not fall into the despair and guilt that most often happens after an abortion?' Nuxoll said.
Yep, let's lay a guilt trip on them. After all, they are just sluts who want a easy way out.
//////////////////////////////////////// /////// Go Republicans!!!!!!!!!!!!
BOISE • Do mandatory ultrasounds give abortion-seeking women crucial information needed to make a decision, or violate their privacy and impede their right to seek a legal medical procedure?
A valid question but one I doubt will be answered by any of the Cavemen that passed this piece of shit legislation out of committee and frankly, I will not be surprised if it passes the full Senate.
Please note that they are using the well worn canard of "Informed Consent"
And here is a real nice piece of misdirection if not out right lie.
"The law would also establish a list of free ultrasound providers in the state, most of which would be at pregnancy crisis centers."
but.
'Currently, no abortion provider offers free ultrasounds,' Hopkins said. A woman who gets a free ultrasound at a pregnancy crisis center might be surprised when she needs a second one from her physician.
Fucking Troglodytes

LOS ANGELES • In yet another public relations embarrassment for the Mormon Church, a Utah researcher has discovered that slain Jewish journalist Daniel Pearl was posthumously baptized last year in a serious breach of church protocol.
