| Earnings Propping Up Market, For Now Posted: 07 Feb 2012 06:06 PM PST By Ed Butowsky, FOX Business Why are stocks going higher when there is so much risk to earnings. Simply put, stock prices move up and down based on expected earnings. However, institutional investors and professional money managers add one more criteria to the evaluation process. With more than 90% of the volume on the stock market coming from the fingertips of these professionals, I believe it is important for individuals to understand how these people think about current market valuations. To get technical, with the 10-year Treasury trading at historic lows, the stock market looks two times more favorable today than bonds do with respect to valuation.

| ‘Doomsday Preppers’ highlights extreme survival techniques Posted: 07 Feb 2012 05:53 PM PST By Monika Joshi, USA TODAY For some people, the end of the world as we know it is upon us, and there is no better time than now to start preparing. Such is the concept of National Geographic Channel’s new reality show Doomsday Preppers, which profiles Americans who have taken extreme measures to plan for a forthcoming apocalypse — whether natural disaster, nuclear war or economic crisis. The show premieres tonight with back-to-back episodes at 9 and 10 ET/PT. The channel commissioned an online survey of 1,007 adults in the USA, and found that 61% of Americans believe the country will experience a major catastrophic event within the next 20 years, but only 15% feel they are fully prepared for it. “I think between the survey and the show, people will get to examine their own beliefs, compare them to the survey, see how people in the show are spending their lives and learn to prepare themselves,” says Brad Dancer, senior vice president of research and digital media at the channel.

| Posted: 07 Feb 2012 05:07 PM PST By Terence P. Jeffrey, CNSNews.com Archbishop Timothy Broglio, who leads the Roman Catholic Archdiocese for the Military Services, wrote a letter to be read at all Sunday Masses for U.S. military personnel around the world that said that a regulation issued by the Obama Administration under the new federal health care law was "a blow" to a freedom that U.S. troops have not only fought to defend but for which some have recently died in battle. "It is a blow to a freedom that you have fought to defend and for which you have seen your buddies fall in battle," the archbishop wrote. Another line in his letter said: "We cannot—we will not—comply with this unjust law."

| Dem Rep. Kathy Dahlkemper: I Wouldn’t Have Voted for Obamacare If I’d Known About HHS Regulation Posted: 07 Feb 2012 03:22 PM PST BY JOHN MCCORMACK, The Weekly Standard Former Democratic congresswoman Kathy Dahlkemper, a Catholic from Erie, Pennsylvania, cast a crucial vote in favor of Obamacare in 2010. She lost her seat that November in part because of her controversial support of Obamacare. But Dahlkemper said recently that she would have never voted for the health care bill had she known that the Department of Health and Human Services would require all private insurers, including Catholic charities and hospitals, to provide free coverage of contraception, sterilization procedures, and the “week-after” pill “ella” that can induce early abortions. “I would have never voted for the final version of the bill if I expected the Obama Administration to force Catholic hospitals and Catholic Colleges and Universities to pay for contraception," Dahlkemper said in a press release sent out by Democrats for Life in November. “We worked hard to prevent abortion funding in health care and to include clear conscience protections for those with moral objections to abortion and contraceptive devices that cause abortion. I trust that the President will honor the commitment he made to those of us who supported final passage.” Of course, most abortion opponents disagree with Dahlkemper that the HHS regulation is Obamacare’s only moral problem. Under Obamacare, each state’s federally subsidized health care exchange is required to offer a health insurance plan that covers elective abortions unless the state passes a law opting out of the requirement.

| The Tea Party is dead. Long live the Tea Party. Posted: 07 Feb 2012 03:05 PM PST
It's been at least ten minutes since our last Breaking News Story about the imminent (or already past) demise of the Tea Party, so we may as well trot out another one. Excuses for holding this particular wake vary from a general sense of dissatisfaction with the current crop of presidential candidates to perceived failures by the freshman GOP class of 2010 to consistently live up to their promises. The liberal leaning Daily Beast offers up the latest dissection of the Tea Party's corpse this week, with the following bits of "insight."

| Ahead of caucuses, major Colorado tea party group promotes Ron Paul Posted: 07 Feb 2012 03:00 PM PST
In advance of the Colorado Republican caucuses tonight, the Northern Colorado Tea Party– perhaps the most influential of the state's many tea party groups– isn't backing away from its constitutional conservative mission. Far from recommending members warm up to presidential frontrunner Mitt Romney, the group has unofficially thrown its support behind libertarian Congressman Ron Paul. Last week, the Johnstown-based group (which operates over a large swath of the northern Front Range but lists Johnstown south-east of Ft. Collins as its postal address) sent out an email blast littered with exclamation points announcing Paul's brief visit to Denver. It also pointed caucus goers to the group's "no rhetoric, all facts" GOP Presidential Voter Guide, a deadpan exercise in candidate demolition that leaves no doubt where the group stands. The authors of the guide skewered Romney, Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum as unreliably conservative in both fiscal matters and in checking government overreach.
