If you have children who watch Nickelodeon, especially in the early hours of the morning, this post from Army Wife Toddler Mom is one which is a must read:

NICKELODEON IS BRAINWASHING YOUR CHILD

Linda Ellerby is the host, that should be enough said.

Pay particular attention to the second and fourth stories.

This Nickeldeon “news” program, is not a news program, it is a but this show was a primer on how to be a “left-wing radical REBEL”.

I am not a blind follower of our Government, and I also think that Government should be watched by it’s citizens. It is our civic duty.

However this program led by Ellerby, is anti-war, anti- GWOT, anti-military.

This news program is not about people changing the World around them.

Ms. Ellerby uses leftist propaganda buzz words like “taking on the establishment”.

She shows a group, of “tweenagers” walking around in orange jumpsuits, hooded and yelling from a bullhorn. “We are not ok, with people being tortured by American soldiers!” “Are cooperation’s priority over human lives?”

There is also a call for the impeachment of the President in the second segment of the video, “democracy is at stake because of the President violating the Constitution”.

The fourth segment of video shows another tweenager, who has put together a video of wounded Iraqi children, with the song Jesus Loves Me playing over it. This teenager blames America, the military, for what is happening in Iraq. This young girl says “she finds, videos and facts on the Internet” to show what is REALLY happening in Iraq. I am guessing she is getting these images from Al Jazeera.

Take the politics out of this. What is happening to wholesome programming for our children?

Young teenagers don’t just out of the blue form the type of opinions expressed on this show, at least I hope they do not.

Ms. Ellerby speaks of rebels…this program does not show rebellion, it touts incorrect “facts” and downright fabrications.

Please check out the video at the link above. If you have children of any age it may just surprise you that a network like Nickelodeon allows such an obvious distortion of facts to be promoted by the young.

The story broke a couple of months ago about former First Lady Hillary Clinton’s records not being released from the National Archives until, at the very earliest, after the 2008 election.

At this evenings Democratic Debate in Philadelphia, Tim Russert questioned Mrs. Clinton about these records and her answer was less than forthcoming so he approached the question again. Watch as the Senator attempts to answer and the rebuttal to her answer from Senator Obama.

Mrs. Clinton seems uncomfortable with the question and appeared not prepared to answer with her usual ease. If there is nothing to hide in these records, release them. There has been ample time especially given the case that she is running for the most powerful office in the world.

Update:

Another one of those “have it both ways” moments for Mrs. Clinton. This time it is Chris Dodd who calls her on her inconsistency.

Perhaps the questions were more difficult at this debate than those in the past, but it does appear that the Senator struggled to define her answers to these questions clearly. Very interesting.

Thanks Liberty Pundit for pointing us to what might be the most ridiculous story so far this week:

A two-meter shark has been caught in a river in southern Iraq more than 200 km (160 miles) from the sea.

Locals blamed the U.S. military for the shark’s presence.

Tahseen Ali, a teacher, said there was a “75 percent chance” Americans had put the shark in the water.

“This is very frightening for us. Our children always swim in the river and I believe that there are more sharks. I believe that America is behind this matter,” said fisherman Hatim Karim.

How absolutely absurd.
