Cat Saves Owner's Life Just Hours After Being Adopted

Amy Jung and her son Ethan stopped into The Humane Society near their home in Sturgeon, Wisconsin on Feb. 8 to play with the cats, but one feline -- a 21-pound orange-and-white cat named Pudding -- stood out to the pair. Jung learned that the laid-back cat had been in and out of the shelter since 2003, and made an impulsive decision to adopt him and his friend Wimsy.

Jung said the cats wasted no time fitting into their new home when they arrived. But just hours later, the Jungs' happy day took a turn for the worse. Soon after going to bed, Amy Jung, who has had diabetes since childhood, started having a diabetic seizure in her sleep.

That's when Pudding sprang into action. The fast-acting feline sat on Jung's chest in an attempt to wake her up and when that didn't work, he nudged and nipped her face until she briefly returned to consciousness.

In that moment, Jung was able to call out to her son Ethan, but he couldn't hear her calls. Luckily, Pudding darted into Ethan's room and pounced on the bed until he woke up and was able to call for help.

Grover Norquist --------- What is he afraid of??

Grover Norquist goes around the country signing up politicians to sign a pledge stating they will not raise taxes.

I feel there should be a huge cry for Grover to release his tax returns. He should not be afraid to do this.
What does he have to hide?? If he can ask people to sign his pledge he should have the guts to release his tax returns so everyone can see how this effects him.

What is his real tax rate??


Come on Grover, release your tax returns!!

Bachmann is Back

Bachmann to defend her seat in Congress
Article by: KEVIN DIAZ , Star Tribune
Updated: January 25, 2012 - 12:20 PM


WASHINGTON - Talking for the first time about her political future since she dropped out of the presidential race, Minnesota Republican Michele Bachmann said Wednesday that she is in the race to defend her seat in Congress.

"I am very thrilled to be in the position that I am today, and I am looking forward to continuing," Bachmann, now in her third term, told the Star Tribune. "Obviously we'll see what happens with these [redistricting] maps... But I do intend to run again."

~~~~~~~~

But even as she announced her plans to run again, Bachmann bristled at questions about her political ambitions, the presidential race, and her place in Congress. At one point a press aide interrupted the interview to say Bachmann wanted to talk only about President Obama's State of the Union address and district topics like the proposed St. Croix River crossing.

~~~~~~~~

"Michele Bachmann has done absolutely nothing for the people of Minnesota's Sixth District in the last year," Minnesota DFL Chairman Ken Martin said Wednesday. "Since September 2011, she has missed over 90 percent of the votes in Congress. Instead, she was flying around the country and catering to her Tea Party friends as part of her failed bid for president."

I do not remember once while she was running for president did she mention Minnesota and all the things she did for her district.


edit: The last paragraph of the article might be the best.
