America 250: Presidential Message on the Anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation

On January 1, 1863, President Abraham Lincoln signed the legendary Emancipation Proclamation—one of the most significant documents in human history and a grand edict that paved the way to the liberation of millions of slaves and the full glory of the American promise.

As the bloody Civil War raged into its second year and the Nation fought to preserve the Union, President Lincoln made a “fit and necessary” military decree that would redefine the entire conflict.  With the Emancipation Proclamation declaring that those held in slavery in the

rebellious states “shall be then, thenceforward, and forever free,” the purpose of the war shifted—and every Union advance now carried with it the blazing torch of liberty, justice, and dignity for all.

HOME COUNTRY: Dewey’s a community project.

  Dewey’s a community project. He’s our resident accident-prone guy who managed to get his dad’s pickup stuck in the county’s only mud hole during a six-year drought, release 300 steers from the feedlot onto the interstate, and create about a ton of tossed salad with hot oil dressing on the on ramp. Quite a few of us have scratched our heads over helping Dewey find something he could do without causing widespread destruction.

  Last year, at Doc’s suggestion, Dewey fixed up his dad’s pickup and became what Doc later called an “entre-manure,” by taking manure from feedlots and the dairy and delivering it as fertilizer to people’s gardens. The problem is, no one needs fertilizer in their gardens in winter.

As a Cardiologist, I Know the Dietary Guidelines Are Failing America’s Hearts

By Bret Scher, MD

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States.

As a practicing cardiologist for more than 20 years, I’ve watched patients do everything “by the book.” They eat according to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans and still see their weight climb, blood pressure rise, and heart health deteriorate.

The problem isn’t their effort. It’s the guidance, which promotes high-carb, low-fat diets that can actually worsen heart disease. Many assume that by following the government’s recommendations they can improve their health. Too often, the opposite is true.
