Are Conservatives Healthier Than Liberals?
Submitted by: Terry Payne
PSYCHOLOGY TODAY.COM
“Despite these concerns, I think the study raises some interesting issues. Previous research has found that people who self-identify as conservatives tend to be somewhat higher on the personality trait of conscientiousness than those identifying as liberals (Fatke, 2017). This relationship tends to be stronger for social conservatism but also applies to some extent to economic conservatism. Conscientiousness is related to the extent to which one tends to follow socially prescribed norms concerning impulse control, follow rules, be self-disciplined and task-focused, plan ahead, and be willing to delay gratification (Roberts, Walton, & Bogg, 2005). Perhaps not surprisingly, conscientiousness is related to longer life expectancy and to health-related behaviors. Specifically, people high in conscientiousness are less likely to smoke, tend to drink in moderation or to abstain, eat healthier foods, avoid taking recreational drugs, and are less likely to engage in risky sexual behaviors (Bogg & Roberts, 2004), all of which can enhance one’s health. On the other hand, people low in conscientiousness are more likely to engage in hazardous behaviors, including risky driving and violence.”-- © Scott McGreal

“Decide for Yourselves: Maria Berry, SBOE Candidate -- WATCH”
By Donna Garner

After watching the short audio clip (posted below), we believe you will be excited about supporting Maria Berry for the Texas State Board of Education. She (and her husband) are deeply committed Christians, and we need so badly for her to be a Godly leader on the Board because of the tremendous influence that these 15 SBOE members wield over children’s lives.

WUHAN - 400
Submitted by: ROYCE LATHAM
To understand that you have to go back twenty months. It was around then that a Chinese scientist named Li Chen defected to the United States, carrying a diskette record of China’s most important and dangerous new biological weapon in a decade. They call the stuff “Wuhan-400” because it was developed at their RDNA labs outside of the city of Wuhan, and it was the four-hundredth viable strain of man-made microorganisms created at that research center.

John Brennan is about to be indicted for plot against Trump, prepare for violence, says fmr CIA Kevin Shipp
You can’t rule this out, in fact I believe plans are in place to deal with the rioters both the ones being paid and the blind sheep that will follow them. Keep your eyes open and plan for anything. The left would rather see this country crash and burn than face prosecution for their many crimes, treason being only one tenth of what they have committedhttps://www.bizpacreview.com/2019/04/30/john-brennan-is- about-to-be-indicted-for-plot- against-trump-prepare-for- violence-says-fmr-cia-officer- 750055

REPORTER: Atlas Shrugs: All roads in the effort to get rid of Trump lead right back to the top’. It’s abundantly clear now that the Obama administration tried to torpedo Donald Trump, first as a candidate and then as president-elect, using a Democratic Party-funded “dossier” of Russian propaganda to obtain warrants to spy on Trump’s campaign.
