“They Knew It, They Had To.
I Don’t See How They Could Not Know It.”
I Don’t See How They Could Not Know It.”
Steven Ertelt, Life News — A former plant worker at the facility found to be burning aborted babies for energy says the practice had been going on for years and he believes plant officials and perhaps even county government officials should have known.Local officials in Oregon are upset that an energy plant is reportedly burning aborted babies from Canada to generate electricity. As LifeNews reported on Thursday, they launched an investigation into how and why aborted babies were included along with medical waste shipped from Canada to Oregon to be incinerated for energy at a recycling plant.
The Marion County Commissioners heard about it for the first time yesterday, April 23, at 4 p.m. They immediately called Oregon Right to Life to express their horror and avow their lack of knowledge of the practice.
Commissioner Sam Brentano said the “waste-to-energy” plant was intended to efficiently destroy waste and, in the process, generate electricity, but the plant was “never intended to be a destruction of human fetal tissue.”
But plant worker KOIN interviewed Bud Waterman, a former temp worker at Covanta Marion, Inc., who told the television station that he saw 53-foot tractor trailers carrying biohazardous material dropping off loads at the facility at least two to three times a week. He said plant officials had to know that aborted babies were part of the medical waste and had been for years.
On more than one occasion, Waterman said the contents of the truck spilled out of their containers.
“It would make you sick, especially if you had to clean it up or have to pull a box off the trailer,” said Waterman.
Covanta responded to the claims early Thursday morning by placing blame on Marion County and said the company is halting the program until answers are given.
“The medical waste program at the Marion County Resource Recovery Facility is County run and managed,” Covanta said in a statement. “Marion County contracts for and delivers medical waste to the facility and Covanta has no responsibility for the program. Covanta is shocked by these allegations and is discontinuing the receipt of this waste stream until we have been assured by the County that this alleged material is not being delivered to the facility.”
Waterman said he believes certified contractors have been carrying fetuses from British Columbia to Oregon, where state statutes allow fetuses to be disposed.
“I don’t know that you can know just like I should have known, but I didn’t,” said Brentano. “I’m sorry I didn’t know that this included fetal tissue, but now that I do know, believe me things change.”
Waterman said he believes fetuses have been incinerated at the Marion County facility for years and used for energy, a practice that the Canadian government will not do.
“They knew it, they had to. I don’t see how they could not know it,” said Waterman.

“April 25, 2014 - INDIANAPOLIS — Sheriff David Clarke Jr. may not be a household name...yet. But he’s well on his way after his rousing speech at the 2014 NRA convention. Consider the standing ovation he received after revealing the seven words he would add to the Second Amendment: “Keep your hands off our guns, dammit."
Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke (Source: TheBlaze)
Clarke, the outspoken gun proponent who heads the sheriff’s office in Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, was easily one of the most popular speakers during the convention's leadership forum. His comments about amending the Constitution were aimed at former Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens, who said in his recent book that he would change the Second Amendment by adding five words in the middle: “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms when serving in the militia shall not be infringed.”
“My reaction was, ‘What!’” Clarke said, adding, “Just what part of ‘shall not be infringed’ does Justice Stevens not understand?”
That comment drew another standing ovation.
But he wasn’t done there, going on to say he was sick of the Second Amendment being the “bastard child of the Bill of Rights.”
“The armed citizen made America free and the armed citizen will keep America free!” Clarke said, also calling the armed citizen the “great equalizer” and giving examples of three such instances in his area.
“Those firearms in the hands of law-abiding citizens saved people’s lives,” he added, declaring he “damn well meant it” when he took his oath to defend the Constitution.
“We're partners now,” he said in closing after calling on people to join pro-gun groups. He also warned them that the fight to defend the Second Amendment will be a tough, never-ending one.
“Are you ready?”
The answer seemed to be found in a final standing ovation.”

‘Opening Statement’
“Dirty Harry (Harry Reid) & BLM Land Grab”
“Harry, Dirty Harry”
Transcript Intro From ‘Fox News Insider’
This week, United States Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid continued trashing ordinary Americans over land grabs. And you need to be concerned because the land grabs haven’t ended. And who knows? Will your land be next?
Reid labeled opponents of his federal land grab “domestic terrorists,” this after calling terminally ill cancer patients who say they’ve lost their doctors “liars” and calling a prominent family that builds hospital wings, schools, and gives away hundreds of millions of dollars to charity “un-American.”
Senator Reid, the name calling goes both ways. Senator, I’ve decided to change your name to Harry, Dirty Harry.
The story that I’m about to tell you starts with Dirty Harry’s long time senior aide - his puppet on a string - with virtually no experience at the Bureau of Land Management - who now runs it.
That bureau today eyeing 116 miles on the border between Texas and Oklahoma, an estimated 90,000 acres that BLM says belongs to the public.
So what’s behind these land grabs? Are they really about protected animals like tortoises and owls, or might Dirty Harry be up to something more sinister?
