Obama Campaign: “Vote like your lady parts depends on it”

The ReadyWriter

Someone on President Obama’s campaign team is catching heat for posting an e-card on Obama’s Tumblr that read: ““Vote like your lady parts depend on it.” The e-card was quickly deleted when women’s groups, and the national media, caught wind of it.

According to the Washington Examiner, the e-card post linked to “a health care document explaining how the Affordable Health Care Act helps women.” The Obama campaign has used scare tactics, saying Mitt Romney will cut funds for abortions if he is elected president.

Obama’s campaign backed away from the e-card posting. In a response to The National Review’s Katrina Trinko, the campaign said “This piece did not go through our regular review. When it was discovered, it was taken down.”

Children across America are Hungry – and they’re blaming it on Michelle Obama

The ReadyWriter

Students across the country are complaining and protesting the new school lunch regulations pushed by Michelle Obama. The new menu is mandated by the United States Department of Agriculture and its initiative was heavily promoted by first lady, Michelle.

All across the country, students are unhappy with the new calorie and protein limit on school lunches; it caps the number of lunch calories for students in kindergarten through fifth grade at 650, and at 700 calories for grades six through eight. High school lunches can contain no more than 850 calories.

The law calls for larger portions of fruits and vegetables, more whole grains, less sodium, and the elimination of trans fat in lunches. Schools may serve only nonfat or low-fat milk.

Schools across the country are reporting students who are unhappy with the new rules, they’re seeing it as; forced starvation diets.

In the you tube video posted of the protest, the students argue that the low-calorie lunches are not enough to meet the physical needs of growing teenagers.

Jesus take the wheel…NYC to distribute ‘morning after’ pill in 13 schools!

The ReadyWriter

The New York City Department of Education is distributing the “morning after pill”, which is the “plan b” emergency contraception pill. The pill will be available to girls as young as 14 years old without parental consent.

Parents have been notified about the CATCH pilot program and how their daughters can opt out of it.

City Council Speaker Christine Quinn says she supports the program because high school students are sexually active and getting pregnant.

The city says about 7,000 girls get pregnant by the time they reach the age of 17. It says more than half choose to get an abortion.

NYC schools already distribute free condoms to students.

This is what happens when parents are not teaching their children moral standards at home, you have the school’s administration and the school system dictating lifestyle choices for them.

The ReadyWriter

The Orlando Sentinel reports that DNA tests run on George Zimmerman’s gun grip excludes Trayvon Martin’s DNA, meaning the teenager did not wrestle with the former neighborhood watchman for his gun as he claims.

Prosecutors released another batch of evidence this morning, the Orlando Sentinel is reporting.

Zimmerman, 28, is charged with 2nd degree murder in the shooting death of Martin in February. The teen was returning to his father’s girlfriend’s townhome in a gated subdivision near Orlando when he was confronted by Zimmerman, who was the self-appointed neighborhood watchman. Zimmerman is free on $1 million bond.

Chris Brown & Rihanna should cut the B.S. and just hook up already!

The ReadyWriter

I’m so tired of all the speculation surrounding singers, Chris Brown and troubled Barbarian Rihanna regarding a reconciliation. First, they both attended a private Island party, then she confessed her undying love for him on Oprah’s Next Chapter, then the two shared a kissed at the VMA’s, now they supposedly have matching tattoos. Enough already!!!!

The problem is, she has forgiven him for the infamous 2009 beat down on her but the world has not. So what are these matching or identical tatoo’s about?

Rihanna’s latest ink, of an Egyptian goddess, is similarly etched into her midsection with the wings spread just below the “We Found Love” singer’s breasts.

Earlier this month, Brown showed off another new piece of body art, with a sketch of a woman’s face imprinted onto the right side of his neck.

Fans and the media noted that the tattoo bore a striking resemblance to a bruised and battered Rihanna, but Brown defended his ink against haters on Tuesday. “I’m an artist and this is art,” he wrote on his Twitter account. “Dia de los Muertos.”

 
 
 Although Chris Brown supposedly have a girlfriend, he and Rihanna still remain friends. In the meantime I’m sure the media will still fuel the speculation off of their cryptic messages to each other.
