You can figure that at at the height of the mosquito season there will be about 10 trillion of the insects buzzing across the United States. That comes out to 41,000 mosquitos for every red-blooded American. If mosquitoes were dollars we could pay off the federal debt. Well, over half of it anyway.

Docs Report Drugs In Babies

The Pennsylvania House Children and Youth Committee approved several bills, this week, that will go to the full House for consideration, including measures to allow electronic reporting of child abuse, require health care providers to report illegal substance effects in newborns, and implement protections for those who report child abuse in good faith from employment discrimination and termination, reports State Rep. Jim Cox (R-129).

Much of the legislative effort on this issue stems from findings and recommendations from the Task Force on Child Protection, which was created in 2011 as a result of the Jerry Sandusky case at Penn State University.

Anyone who suspects child abuse is occurring is urged to contact the state’s toll-free hotline, ChildLine, at 1-800-932-0313.

Factory Tours Mean Richer Teachers

A bill designed to make it easier for public school teachers to get more money has moved through State House committee and is now before the full body. Factory Tours Mean Richer Teachers -- House Bill 1816 would allow teachers, guidance counselors and other school administrators to receive  education credits if they visit certain manufacturing facilities for in-person tours and orientation programs, reports State Rep. Jim Cox (R-129).  Education credits allow teachers to advance a step in the pay scale so it looks like they may soon be able to tour Yeungling Brewery and get a permanent raise.

Pope Francis Says Accept Life

Pope Francis, who has just been named Time magazine’s Person of the Year spoke yesterday, Dec. 12, on the feast day of Our Lady of Guadalupe when the mother of Jesus appeared to a Mexican
peasant, Juan Diego, in Guadalupe in 1531.

Here are some of his remarks:

“When Our Lady appeared to Saint Juan Diego, her face was that of a woman of mixed blood, a mestiza, and her garments bore many symbols of the native culture. Like Jesus, Mary is close to all her sons and daughters; as a concerned mother, she accompanies them on their way through life.
“She shares all the joys and hopes, the sorrows and troubles of God’s people, which is made up of men and women of every race and nation. When the image of the Virgin appeared on the tilma [woven poncho] of Juan Diego, it was the prophecy of an embrace: Mary’s embrace of all the peoples of the vast expanses of America – the peoples who already lived there, and those who were yet to come. “Mary’s embrace showed what America – North and South – is called to be: a land where different peoples come together; a land prepared to accept human life at every stage, from the mother’s womb to old age; a land which welcomes immigrants, and the poor and the marginalized, in every age. A land of generosity. “That is the message of Our Lady of Guadalupe, and it is also my message, the message of the Church. I ask all the people of the Americas to open wide their arms, like the Virgin, with love and tenderness.”

As our Nobel Peace Prize winning president said, he’s “really good at killing people.”

Anybody trying to sign up for ObamaCare could figure that out.

Impeach him now. You’d be doing him a favor. He could dump Michelle and move to Denmark where he could hook up with the Danish prime minister. He and Tiger Woods could go on double dates.
