I am leaving this post for Brian Williams Nightly News; Making a Difference: My small town of Gridley, California has a fence (row) of Bras, yes, bras; pink for Cancer Awareness for Digital Mamography for the Gridley-Biggs Hospital. It is unique to come through town on Hwy. 99 and almost have an accident when you just happen to look and see bras hanging on a fence. Check it out, Brian Williams, it is different. Thought it would be a good human interest story for NBC Nightly News. Thank You. Linda Keller, resident of Gridley, CA.

    Interesting post today and Keller seems to be letting us know what's happening in Cancer Awareness great job.

    We now have the leak of secret documents as many will be killed because of this leak. Yet Cheney/Libby leaked Covert CIA Agent Plame's name and the courts said it was not crime even with her Iran supporters getting killed and Plame is a target for the rest of her life. We are looking for information on Iran yet our Vice President leaked her name and ended any information. Why on earth would anyone trust the USA when they see how we really don't protect them.

    Mueller should have been sent to jail a long time ago for his many crimes. FBI Director is one of the biggest criminal in our government right now. He even allows cheating on FBI test to make sure he get's his puppets in the job. Surprise Mueller defends his actions and does't see cheating as a crime or even wrong. Illegal investigations and spying on innocent peope has been ordered under Mueller yet he's still not in jail.

    We realy need the good news posted and reported on Making a Difference because the rest of the news will turn your hair gray. I wouldn't take Obama's job for even 10 minutes because I can't deal with grown people that act like kids and have so little education. Even the Judge in Arizona knows the law makers aren't very bright and the illegal immigration law proves it.

    Looks like the Corporations are taking the new law the Supreme Court gave them and putting it to work. Now Target is buying a law maker and other Corporations will follow. The 6 Justices made it clear Americans votes don't count and Elections can be brought and paid for by Corporations. Law Makers are now doing their best to support Corporations and doing nothing for the American people. Even some once honest reporters have jumped on board with the Corporations. Wing nuts have been pouring out with organizations on everything from hanging gays to destroying the US Constitution. Things have gone so out of control Caifornia fake reporters are asking Queen Meg if she's running for US President. Next Ned the drunk will enter his name as a candidate.
