Caffeine consumption can affect the heart of unborn children throughout their lives

Here's a story that my significant other will not want to hear about.

Basically, consuming caffeine while pregnant risks creating life-long heart problems for the child.

Considering the degree to which some people consume soft drinks and Starbucks, we could be in for some serious heart issues in our future populations.

Good rule of thumb: Consume no unnecessary chemicals while pregnant. And no, caffeine isn't necessary.

McCain's VEEP choice just keeps getting better and better...At least her values are strong,

This just keeps getting better and better.

It seems that Governor Palin's teenage daughter is pregnant.

The problem is that the Republicans are making threats if this issue is brought up.

What a load of crap. If the same issue occurred on the Democratic side, Rove and his ilk would start a whisper campaign to exploit it while denying their involvement.

Now, I know how teenagers behave and I personally don't think this is much of an issue. However, it becomes a values issue when the VP choice is touted as a family values paragon. Why does a conservative family-values candidate get a pass on the very issues that become ammunition against the other party?

McCan't has really screwed the pooch. There's so much baggage. The inexperience and obvious cynical choice of a female running mate to draw off Hillary voters won't stand up once the real vetting occurs in the general election.
