"Compassion Fatigue" is NOT an Excuse for Terrorism! It is a Real Diagnosis and It Deserves Respect...

I was busy over the weekend. Not much time to blog. But that doesn't mean I was not I watching the saga as it unfolded at Fort Hood. Once again I must thank my PUMA friends for keeping me up to snuff on the nation's hottest news stories!

I am FLABERGHASTED. As are Afrocity and Cynthia Yockey and Uppity Woman.

Despite my Liberal roots and voting record.... I am on the same page with Phyllis Chesler and Murph this time. And that is not likely to change soon.... unless I see mass repudiation of this tyrant, Hassan, by high level Muslims in my community and the world. Clerics staying quiet, and flying below the radar will not garner my support this time.... as it did after 9/11.

I've been listening. And... for the most part.... crickets.

Except, of course, from the apologist Obot legions who want me to believe the "good doctor" was suffering from "Compassion Fatigue."

Oh... and while I'm on that subject .... As a family scientist, I *object* to the deliberate misuse of one of my profession's diagnoses to excuse terrorism.

Sorry, I guess my own "Compassion Fatigue" is setting in.

Aaaahhhhhh........



This is what my sweet little senior terrier, Josie, looked like... in her puppy sling.... after her massage.

Letha, the Health Pets Expo organizer, gave the most wonderful massage demonstration for pet owners. I'm happy to say that we had three of our foster moms there to learn. And some of their kids as well. That will make for a lot of happy foster doggies and kitties this season!

Back to the Festival today. Bringing one of our foster daddies, and another pet or two, along for demo. #2.

If you are in Louisville, and have pets.... you really should join us!

Happy Birthday Daily PUMA!



I hope I am around to see all 12 points in your mission statement accomplished:



1. ...there is unfinished business from 2008 involving Barack Obama and his people CHEATING in the caucus contests.

2.....Barack Obama accepting money that he KNEW was fraudulently donated to him via the use of fake names,

3.....Identifying the democrats that went out of their way to support Barack Obama and diss Hillary Clinton when they just could have easily as waited on the sidelines and let the democratic voters decide at the ballot box,

4.....Exposing the intertwined relationship that Barack Obama has with Wall Street Bankers at the expense of middle, "bitter: america,

5.....Spotlighting lazy, conceited, men in suits who profit from making fun of woman or diminishing them in the media,

6.....Spotlight women who are doing things and women who are being ridiculed and ignored when they should be congratulated for doing the right thing.

7.....Be a conduit that connects PUMA blogs in a fast and efficient manner so that we can get the most information in the fastest possible time so we can keep in touch more easily with more PUMA blogs.

8......Exposing the republican conservative frauds and their blogs who simply hate all things democrat while pretending to be supporters of PUMA

9......Reveal and expose the conservative younger blogs that are nothing more than retreads of their older predecessors and simply hate on Hillary Clinton every chance they get.

10......Hope to be around when the wrongdoers publicly admit they acted unethically in the 2008 democratic race and want to apologize to Hillary Clinton.

11.....Would like to see Barack Obama resign one day with an incredibly eloquent speech that actually allows him to keep his political career going as a changed, humbled man.

12....Hillary Clinton has grown by leaps and bounds as a person and a politician and would make the finest next president of anybody out there from either party.

Former Mayors Roxanne Qualls and Mark Mallory are Top Vote Getters in Cincinnati, Despite Accusations That They Are Both "Gays" Buying "Gay Art"



The reviews are mixed, But, all in all, I think Cincinnati did OK for herself.

Cincinnatians, though split on many issues... voted across party lines and ideologies for Charterite Roxanne Qualls. (We know who is best for our city, it seems!)

Mayor Mallory handily won a second term, despite the "gay smears" against him and Roxanne. From the article linked above:

"By far the ugliest moments in this year’s campaigning occurred on Election Day, when some volunteers were caught distributing flyers outside Integrity Hall in Bond Hill. The literature accused Mallory and Qualls of being gay and of Mallory’s majority pushing funding for “gay art,” whatever that is.

No one took credit for the flyers, but it occurred at the same facility where Winburn held his victory celebration Tuesday night."


Unfortunately, Charlie Winburn also eeked out a council seat. By the skin of his anti-gay teeth.

Look, Charlie... Cincinnati may be known as a Conservative city. But not THAT KIND of Conservative. Get a grip on yourself....

Go Roxanne and Mark!!

THANKS FOR NOTHING!!

Looking For Jobs Now.... As Economy Hits Bottom, and Pet Rescue Flounders

I don't care what anybody out there might say about the economy "turning the corner." This was the worst summer we have ever seen in rescue. Donations are down. Adoptions are down. And the situation is becoming dire. Kill rates in area shelters are on the rise.

The long and short of it is this.... if I don't take another job, Three Sister's Pet Rescue will be forced to close it's doggy door. And that would break my heart!

Sooo.... if you don't see me around much, be patient. It's only because I am job hunting and promoting fundraisers like THIS ONE.

Once I find the job I am looking for and get settled in.... I will be back to blogging. I promise!!

Miss my PUMAs!
