Sex Change for Kids

Whaddaya know!!! This might reduce the demand for sex selection abortions if people can change their kid's sex later!

Dr Norman Spack of Boston Children's Hospital is offering transgender treatment to kids as young as 7 years old.

Nah, I'm not in favor of a kid, still under his parent's influence, having his sex changed by a doc. Nope. Even assuming the alteration itself were ethical, who would be doing the choosing?

We have parents in the U.S. who can choose to kill a kid for various gratuitous reasons. Offering this sex alteration option to such inhumane people is a major mistake.

Google your Health Records

Google has launched its public offer to store health records for patients.

Don't jump on this yet if you're still in your right mind. It might be appropriate for people who can't understand or can't remember their medical data.

Same as every other health related service and treatment, let other people test it first, unless it's your last resort and any gamble is worth it.

Feminist Democrats to Boycott NBC

Couldn't happen to a nicer network, in my humble opinion.
A women's group in KY [Clinton Supporters Count Too] has been made upset by the premature and persistent requests for Hillary to give up her fight for the Democratic nomination. They plan a media boycott in protest and ask that Democrats ignore NBC. Watch for this group to develop a campaign against Obama if he wins the nomination.

Surely I'm not going to win friends with reporters in the mainstream media, but it's been frustrating to try to explain scientific and medical issues to them, only to see output which shows they couldn't understand 8th grade level concepts. There are a few exceptions to this rule, but it's scary to comtemplate the bulk of journalists who bring news to the public. I recommend seeking out your own information sources on the internet, and turning off your television, which constitutes the worst of the news reporting overall.

As for NBC, I began refusing interviews with this network early on. NBC offers bumper sticker news, and you'll get little but ideology and slogans from them, as empty and vacuous as Obama's promises of "change".

Some advice for those who are interviews for television news.... go for the live interview only. If you have a choice between radio and television, in the same time slot, go for radio.

TX Nurse loses her offspring

The U.S. Supreme Court has refused to hear a case brought by TX nurse Augusta Roman. For five years after their divorce, Ms. Roman sought to implant embryos produced from her oocytes and her estranged husbands sperm. Her former husband, Randy Roman intervened to prevent this from taking place.

A quick look at this article might make people reconsider a decision to go forward with in vitro fertilization. Even outside of the ethical problems with ending the lives of the embryos, What a Mess!.

The sad thing is that adoption has likewise been made into such a legal quagmire that has created this demand for in vitro fertilization.

Obama sez Planned Parenthood helps Men

"Thanks to all of you at Planned Parenthood for all the work that you are doing for women all across the country and for families all across the country—and for men, who have enough sense to realize you are helping them, all across the country." -- Barack Obama.

Yes, Obama knows that Planned Parenthood helps Men. We know it hasn't done a thing to elevate the social status nor health status of women in the U.S.

If you want to see the actual Video of Obama giving the real reason for abortion and the services which increase the demand for it, Here ya go...

Ted Kennedy Hospitalized

Well, old Ted had a couple of seizures Saturday and is currently said to be conscious and responsive and undergoing tests.

He's not exactly the poster boy for healthy living, so it's a surprise that he's been around this long (76 yrs).

One seizure apparently occurred at his home in Hyannisport, and another on his trip to Massachusetts general hospital.

He's being tested to find the cause of the seizures, and preliminary medical opinion is that they're not due to stroke.

Politically Incorrect, Sweetie!!!

Check out Obama being less than respectful to the female reporter, in addition to dodging her question. Ooopsie!

This one might be harder for him to live down than the comment about Babies being a punishment!
