GFP Note: WE support The Obamas because they're Lightworkers. WE don't care about their political affiliation. WE ARE ALL HUman BEings - ALL ONE -  ALL Equal. Putting people into groups and labeling them "Democrat" or "Republican" or anything like that is the way things were done in the old paradigm. Dividing people into groups and setting them against each other was the work of the cabal. Now WE shine a LIGHT on these fake distinctions and watch them disintegrate like the illusions they are.

Barack Obama appeared on The Late Show with David Letterman on September 18. He and Letterman discussed the Mother Jones - Mitt Romney video among other issues.

(Susan Walsh/ Associated Press ) - FILE - In this Dec. 19, 2011 file photo, Mei Xiang, the female giant panda at the Smithsonian’s National Zoo in Washington, eats breakfast. Mei Xiang has given birth to a cub following five consecutive pseudopregnancies in as many years.

WASHINGTON — A giant panda at Washington’s zoo surprised scientists and zookeepers by becoming a mom again after years of failed pregnancies.

Scientists at the zoo had all but given up on 14-year-old Mei Xiang’s chances of conceiving, but they were watching the panda for a possible cub nonetheless after she was artificially inseminated earlier this year. She gave birth late Sunday, her first cub since 2005.

HENDERSON, Ky. — A naturalist at Audubon State Park in western Kentucky is noticing another effect of the high heat and drought that has plagued the region — a dearth of monarch butterflies.

Julie McDonald told The Gleaner that the butterflies are usually migrating through the area to Mexico by now. "Normally by now I would have been seeing monarch butterflies," she said. "But I haven't seen any yet, unfortunately. The heat has hit anything that feeds on nectar."

Flu Shot

from Dr. Mercola

The Canadian press recently broke the story that new research confirms initial findings that the flu vaccine appeared to actually increase people’s risk of getting sick with H1N1, and cause more serious bouts of illness to boot.

According to the Vancouver Sun:1

“Researchers, led by Vancouver’s Dr. Danuta Skowronski, an influenza expert at the B.C. Centre for Disease Control, noticed in the early weeks of the [2009 H1N1] pandemic that people who got a flu shot for the 2008-09 winter seemed to be more likely to get infected with the pandemic virus than people who hadn’t received a flu shot. Five studies done in several provinces showed the same unsettling results.”
