I doubt that they watch Rachel Maddow either. Every time I view them, I get mad. They make comments about Christians, and Southerners and I got to where I just don’t want to hear it. I will watch CNN before I watch them. What about you?
Our children are not only being taught to worship our President, but now they want to change their religion also. Anyone for Home Schooling? A lady on Glenn Beck’s show said that she Home Schools her children, and is required to teach them about homosexuality.
California’s course on world religions also omits Islam’s long history of jihadist violence, while portraying Christianity as an intolerant and bloodthirsty faith..
Christianity isn’t given equal time, either. It’s covered in just two days — as opposed to up to two weeks for Islam — and doesn’t involve kids in any role-playing activities like the Islam unit..
” California schools are pushing an unbalanced religious agenda that favors Islam and minimizes Christianity and Judaism,” Accuracy in Academia warns in its latest Campus Report.
Read this article. A friend of mine emailed it to me, and I looked it up on the internet.
We have to start praying for our Country as never before. We have to pray without ceasing also for our children. Hell is enlarging itself daily. I pray all the time about this. I pray that God will save the Presidents’ soul, and I bind the powers of Satan that has him bound, and I loose the convicting power of the Holy Spirit upon him. I do Congress the same way.
On Monday, Democratic Sen. Claire McCaskill tried a new tack in rebutting the protesters while also minimizing their complaints. She got several hands when she asked audience members at a town hall meeting to raise their hands if they’re so scared about the federal government running health care that they “can’t think straight.”
It all has to do with their attitude. I have heard her on Fox News twice this past week, and I must admit that her attitude is better than any of the rest of the Congressmen over this health care debate. Even though I don’t agree with her politics, I think that she showed respect for her constituents this week.
Pelosi, and the others have been despicable, however.
For Pelosi and Hoyer, they charged that an “ugly campaign” is afoot to misrepresent the legislation, “disrupt” the public meetings and prevent members of Congress from “conducting a civil dialogue” on the topic.
“Let the facts be heard,” they wrote. “These disruptions are occurring because opponents are afraid not just of differing views — but of the facts themselves. Drowning out opposing views is simply un-American. Drowning out the facts is how we failed at this task for decades.”
The “un-American” dig was a sign the debate is heating up. In a tight spot, Pelosi is known for employing tough rhetoric and accusations to muscle her way out.
Back in September 2008, Pelosi used similar language to complain about Republicans who weren’t showing up to talks on a Wall Street bailout package.
“I thought it was very unpatriotic of them not to show up, not to show up, in some ways, boycott the meetings earlier in the week,” she said.
She also reportedly called the GOP budget in 2006 “unpatriotic” because it drove up the national debt.
This past May, she accused the CIA of lying to Congress, as she was facing questions about how much she knew early on about the Bush administration’s interrogation policies.
Then last week, with the health care debate growing more heated, she invoked Nazi Germany, accusing protesters of “carrying swastikas and symbols like that” to meetings. A spokesman for Pelosi later said the speaker was referencing a photo taken at a town hall meeting hosted by Rep. Ed Markey, D-Mass., which showed a protester holding a sign of a swastika crossed out over President Obama’s name and a question mark.
Yet the language Pelosi is using for health care critics is nothing like the language she used to describe anti-war protesters criticized by war supporters as unpatriotic.
Pelosi, who led efforts to withdraw from Iraq before troops had finished the job, tolerated anti-war hecklers on several occasions.
“It’s always exciting,” she said of protesters who interrupted a meeting in January 2006, according to an account in the San Francisco Chronicle. “This is democracy in action. I’m energized by it, frankly.”
At an event in June 2007, she told anti-war protesters “just go for it, I respect your enthusiasm,” according to another account.
The claims of “un-American” behavior by critics is not something made by President Obama, who on Monday withheld criticism of his health care detractors.
“We are having a vigorous debate in the United States and I think that’s a healthy thing,” he said, speaking at a North American summit in Mexico.
Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, said there’s not really any “substantive difference” between the anti-war protests of MoveOn and Code Pink then and the health care reform criticism today — other than the subject being addressed.
Cornyn told FOX News he thinks the latest charge of being “un-American” is a “pretty harsh statement” about Americans who have serious concerns about the health care legislation.
I think that Obama’ commented today like that due to him knowing what Pelosi said. Also, a certain Democrat from Georgia is going to here from me about how he acted at a townhall meeting in Douglasville, Ga.
I just hope that everyone remembers how the Democrats have treated their constituents during this debate when it is time to vote. They need to learn who puts them in office.
PHILADELPHIA — Philadelphia’s police department is investigating why an officer used his police car’s computer to run a criminal background check on President Barack Obama.
Two Atlanta-area police officers are accused of a similar unauthorized background check on the president July 20. DeKalb County officers Ryan White and C.M. Route were placed on paid administrative leave.
Read these two posts on Michelle Malkin’s board. Here, and here.
I am just waiting for the day that the truth does come out. Good work, Michelle! I have suspected Acorn ever since the election. They need to be brought down. The thing that bothers me is Obama’s campaign contributions and his relationship with Acorn and Project Vote.
Remember the stories about dead people recieving stimulus checks a few weeks ago? How did they get them? It is awful strange to me that I don’t remember dead people getting checks when they got a stimulus check from President Bush. Do any of you remember that? Did you hear that dead people got checks?
The following is Acorn’s Preamble:
Preamble
We stand for a People’s Platform, as old as our country, and as young as our dreams. We come before our nation, not to petition with hat in hand, but to rise as one people and demand.
We have waited and watched. We have hoped and helped. We have sweated and suffered. We have often believed. We have frequently followed.
But we have nothing to show for the work of our hand, the tax of our labor. Our patience has been abused; our experience misused. Our silence has been seen as support. Our struggle has been ignored.
Enough is enough. We will wait no longer for the crumbs at America’s door. We will not be meek, but mighty. We will not starve on past promises, but feast on future dreams.
We are an uncommon people. We are the majority, forged from all minorities. We are the masses of many, not the forces of few. We will continue our fight until the American way is just one way, until we have shared the wealth, until we have won our freedom.
This is not a simple vision, but a detailed plan.
Our plan is to build an American reality from the American rhetoric, to deliver a piece of the present and the fruits of the future to every man, to every woman, to every family.
We demand our birthright: the chance to be rich, the right to be free.
Our riches shall be the blooming of our communities, the bounty of a sure livelihood, the beauty of homes for our families with sickness driven from the door, the benefit of our taxes rather than their burden, and the best of our energy, land, and natural resources for all people.
Our freedom is the force of democracy, not the farce of federal fat and personal profit. In our freedom, only the people shall rule. Corporations shall have their role; producing jobs, providing products, paying taxes. No more, no less. They shall obey our wishes, respond to our needs, serve our communities. Our country shall be the citizens’ wealth and our wealth shall build our country.
Government shall have its role: public servant to our good, fast follower to our sure steps. No more, no less. Our government shall shout with the public voice and no longer to a private whisper. In our government, the common concerns shall be the collective cause.
We represent a people’s platform, not a politician’s promise.
We demand the changes outlined in our platform and plan. We will work to win. We will have our birthright. We will live in richness and freedom. We will live in one country as one people.
Are Obama’s chickens coming home to roost?
How about a grass-roots protest against Acorn, and us having to pay taxes on stuff we don’t agree with. Did you see where the guy that played Coach told Glenn Beck he didn’t want to pay his taxes?
Former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich told The Jerusalem Post on Sunday that the Obama administration is endangering Israel through its reckless engagement with Iran and the Arab world.
“There’s almost an eagerness to take on the Israeli government to make a point with the Arab world,” he said just before his speech to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee’s annual conference.
“They are systematically setting up the most decisive confrontation that we’ve ever seen,” Gingrich told the Post, referring to news reports about the administration’s approach to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
He called the administration’s efforts to engage Iran a “fantasy,” that would set up a foreign policy conflict with the government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. He summed up Obama’s approach as “the clearest adoption of weakness since Jimmy Carter.”
I feel that Obama is weak when it comes to foreign policy, and I don’t like the way he is doing Israel. They are God’s chosen people, and we are supposed to stand by them and be loyal to them.
I also agree with Newt about Obama being weak like Jimmy Carter.
WASHINGTON — Top House Democrats raised tensions with the White House on a key foreign policy goal, rebuffing a request for funding to begin closing the U.S. prison camp in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
President Barack Obama has sought $80 million to begin the process of closing the controversial detention facility, as part of broader legislation needed to continue funding for the U.S.-led wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Unveiling the House version of war spending bill, House Appropriations Chairman David Obey (D., Wisc.) didn’t include the funds, complaining that the administration has not yet developed a clear plan to wind down operations at Guantanamo and relocate the detainees, either abroad or in the U.S.
“When they have a plan, they’re welcome to come back and talk to us,” Mr. Obey said.
I have been concerned what they will do with the detainees. For sure, I can’t stand the thoughts of them coming here. No other countries will take them either.
The top Republican on the House intelligence committee, Michigan’s Pete Hoekstra, has asked the director of national intelligence’s ombudsman to investigate the Homeland Security report for “unsubstantiated conclusions and political bias.”
The senior Democrat of the House committee with oversight of the department said the report raises privacy and civil liberty issues. “This report appears to have blurred the line between violent belief, which is constitutionally protected, and violent action, which is not,” Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., wrote in a letter to Napolitano.
The department’s definition of left-wing extremism in the March 26 report includes a reference to violence, stating these groups that embrace anticapitalist, communist or socialist beliefs seek “to bring about change through violent revolution rather than through established political processes.”
