It was Jan. 19, 2010, the end of a first year in office punctuated by terrorist plots and culminating in a brush with catastrophe over Detroit on Christmas Day, a reminder that a successful attack could derail his presidency. Yet he faced adversaries without uniforms, often indistinguishable from the civilians around them.</p>\r\n<p>“How old are these people?” he asked, according to two officials present. “If they are starting to use children,” he said of <a href=\"http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/organizations/a/al_qaeda/index.html?inline=nyt-org\" title=\"More articles about Al Qaeda.\">Al Qaeda</a>, “we are moving into a whole different phase.”</p>\r\n<p>It was not a theoretical question: Mr. Obama has placed himself at the helm of a top secret “nominations” process to designate terrorists for kill or capture, of which the capture part has become largely theoretical. He had vowed to align the fight against Al Qaeda with American values; the chart, introducing people whose deaths he might soon be asked to order, underscored just what a moral and legal conundrum this could be.</p>\r\n<p>Mr. Obama is the liberal law professor who campaigned against the Iraq war and torture, and then insisted on approving every new name on an expanding “kill list,” poring over terrorist suspects’ biographies on what one official calls the macabre “baseball cards” of an unconventional war. When a rare opportunity for a <a href=\"http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/subjects/u/unmanned_aerial_vehicles/index.html?inline=nyt-classifier\" title=\"More articles about unmanned aerial vehicles.\">drone</a> strike at a top terrorist arises — but his family is with him — it is the president who has reserved to himself the final moral calculation.</p>\r\n<p>“He is determined that he will make these decisions about how far and wide these operations will go,” said Thomas E. Donilon, his national security adviser. “His view is that he’s responsible for the position of the United States in the world.” He added, “He’s determined to keep the tether pretty short.”</p>\r\n<p>Nothing else in Mr. Obama’s first term has baffled liberal supporters and confounded conservative critics alike as his aggressive counterterrorism record. His actions have often remained inscrutable, obscured by awkward secrecy rules, polarized political commentary and the president’s own deep reserve.</p>\r\n<p>In interviews with The New York Times, three dozen of his current and former advisers described Mr. Obama’s evolution since taking on the role, without precedent in presidential history, of personally overseeing the shadow war with Al Qaeda.</p>\r\n<p>They describe a paradoxical leader who shunned the legislative deal-making required to close the detention facility at Guantánamo Bay in Cuba, but approves lethal action without hand-wringing. While he was adamant about narrowing the fight and improving relations with the Muslim world, he has followed the metastasizing enemy into new and dangerous lands. When he applies his lawyering skills to counterterrorism, it is usually to enable, not constrain, his ferocious campaign against Al Qaeda — even when it comes to killing an American cleric in Yemen, a decision that Mr. Obama told colleagues was “an easy one.”</p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2012/05/29/world/obamas-leadership-in-war-on-al-qaeda.html?_r=3&amp;partner=MYWAY&amp;ei=5065\">Continue reading at NY Times &gt;&gt;&gt;</a></p>\r\n</div>','',1,1,0,1,'2012-05-30 02:35:59',62,'NY Times','2012-05-30 03:19:00',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-05-30 02:35:59','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',2,0,119,'','',0,390,'robots=\nauthor='),(589,'The War on Baby Girls: Part 1 - Undercover in Texas ','the-war-on-baby-girls-part-1-undercover-in-texas-','','<p>Related articles:</p>\r\n<p>Front Porch Politics: <a href=\"http://frontporchpolitics.com/2012/05/undercover-video-reveals-planned-parenthood-endorsing-gendercide/\" title=\"Permanent Link to Undercover Video Reveals Planned Parenthood Endorsing Gendercide\" rel=\"bookmark\">Undercover Video Reveals Planned Parenthood Endorsing Gendercide</a></p>\r\n<p>Townhall.com: <a href=\"http://townhall.com/tipsheet/danieldoherty/2012/05/29/video_planned_parenthood_employee_urges_woman_to_seek_a_sexselection_abortion\">Video: Planned Parenthood Employee Urges Woman to Seek a Sex-Selection Abortion</a></p>\r\n<p>{source}<span style=\"font-family: courier new, courier, monospace;\"><br /><span>&lt;</span>iframe width=\"420\" height=\"315\" src=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/U2H3ZDnBtuw\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen<span>&gt;</span><span>&lt;</span>/iframe<span>&gt;</span><br /></span>{/source}</p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http://townhall.com/tipsheet/danieldoherty/2012/05/29/video_planned_parenthood_employee_urges_woman_to_seek_a_sexselection_abortion\"></a></p>','',1,1,0,1,'2012-05-30 12:51:17',62,'LiveAction.org','2012-05-30 13:15:00',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-05-30 12:51:17','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',2,0,118,'','',0,388,'robots=\nauthor='),(590,'Obama Administration Defies Supreme Courts Ruling On GPS Tracking','obama-administration-defies-supreme-courts-ruling-on-gps-tracking','','<p><img src=\"images/stories/fpp_logo.jpg\" border=\"0\" /></p>\r\n<p>In January, the U. S. Supreme Court ruled that the federal government attaching a GPS device to a citizen’s vehicle, without a warrant, to monitor the vehicle’s movements constitutes a search which violates the Fourth Amendment.  Now the Obama administration is <a href=\"http://jurist.org/paperchase/2012/06/doj-defends-warrantless-gps-tracking.php\" target=\"_blank\">informing</a> the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals that they are going to do it anyway because they have the right and the power to do so.</p>\r\n<p>According to the Obama administration the Supreme Court’s ruling did not specifically mandate obtaining a search warrant in all situations.  According to them that leaves a loophole in the ruling that they can use to mount a tracking device.</p>\r\n<p>The Wall Street Journal <a href=\"http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702303552104577438570632493222.html?mod=googlenews_wsj\" target=\"_blank\">reports</a>,</p>\r\n<blockquote>\r\n<p>The government maintains “that a warrant is not needed for a GPS search, as the Court…did not resolve that question,” a Justice Department spokeswoman said. Nevertheless, she said, the department has “advised agents and prosecutors going forward to take the most prudent steps and obtain a warrant for new or ongoing investigations” in most cases.</p>\r\n<p>The government’s awkward position—saying search warrants are not needed but advising agents to seek warrants anyway—highlights the unanswered questions about digital tracking techniques that remain in the wake of the court’s privacy decision in U.S. v. Jones in January.</p>\r\n</blockquote>\r\n<p>The government is claiming that a tracking device is not a search, yet wants its agents to get search warrants.  WSJ continues,</p>\r\n<blockquote>\r\n<p>Because of the way the government framed the argument in the lower courts—that GPS tracking wasn’t a search at all—the justices did not consider another Justice Department argument. In that argument, the government said that such tracking is a reasonable search that does not require a warrant, because police could accomplish the same goal through another method that requires no warrant—physically following a suspect’s vehicle around the clock.</p>\r\n</blockquote>\r\n<p>Judge Andrew Napolitano, no doubt, would see this as a violation of the Fourth Amendment.  According to Napolitano, the Founders “used the term <em>security</em>, which meant to them essentially the same thing as our contemporary understanding of privacy.</p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http://frontporchpolitics.com/2012/06/obama-administration-defies-supreme-courts-ruling-on-gps-tracking/\">Continue on Front Porch Politics &gt;&gt;&gt;</a></p>','',1,13,0,70,'2012-06-08 04:33:38',62,'Front Porch Politics','2012-06-08 04:42:58',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-06-08 04:33:38','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',2,0,13,'','',0,231,'robots=\nauthor='),(591,'Greek Neo-Nazi Beats Up A Female Communist On Live TV','greek-neo-nazi-beats-up-a-female-communist-on-live-tv','','<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 20px;\">The  video attached here is quite shocking.

The question is: Do you want a society where the people whose salaries you pay make more than those who pay them?<br /><br /> The Democrats will do anything the government unions ask, because (1) It\'s not their money they\'re spending, it\'s the taxpayers\'; and (2) Government unions reciprocate by making sure the Democrats keep getting re-elected.<br /><br /> Gov.

My sources tell me that Hezbollah terrorists are working overtime   behind the scenes to get their hands on Syria’s massive stockpiles of weapons of   mass destruction—chemical and biological weapons that the Assad government has   amassed. <br /><br /> In my New York Times best-seller <em>Beyond Iraq</em>, I detailed how Saddam   Hussein smuggled much of his WMD capacity into Syria before the war started. Now   the same strategy is being used again…and it will leave some of the most deadly   weapons imaginable in the hands of Israel’s most bitter enemies.

It would shake the establishment and pull together<br />conservative voters.<br /><br />If Romney, adopts this measure, HE would pull together the conservative<br />vote.<br /><br />Here is a little something else this would do...It would shake the Obama<br />campaign to its core.<br /><br />As soon as the 1,144 delegates are in hand, WHOEVER garners them either at<br />the convention or before...put this into motion.<br /><br />Rather than a leisurely march toward a VP nominee or a surprise VP<br />announcement like we got in 2008, vet the possible VPs NOW and stand ready<br />to announce the running mate in a nationally televised press conference the<br />day after the delegates are in hand.<br /><br />Make the VP choice...Allen West.<br /><br />Having Congressman West in the VP slot makes him a TRIPLE THREAT and a VP<br />who WILL redefine the role. Triple threat? As the Vice President he would<br />attend to the regular duties and be a heartbeat away from the presidency. A<br />Vice President West would also act as a second Secretary of State in<br />difficult diplomatic negotiations. AND...A Vice President West would work in<br />concert with the Secretary of Defense to realign our military and redefine<br />its role.<br /><br />Triple threat.<br /><br />Oh but this is just the START of the strategy!!!<br /><br />As soon as the nominee has introduced West as the running mate...THE NOMINEE<br />WOULD THEN INTRODUCE HIS SECRETARY OF STATE NOMINEE...<br /><br />John Bolton. As a former Ambassador to the United Nations there is nobody<br />with a better handle on the world\'s issues or more familiar with the<br />players. John Bolton is tough, straight forward and not likely to appease<br />ANYONE.<br /><br />Now, you have the nominee on stage, the VP choice and the Secretary of State<br />nominee...Let\'s not stop there.</p>\r\n','\r\n<p>Next to walk onto the stage...<br /><br />Sarah Palin...Nominee for Secretary of Energy.<br /><br />Palin\'s directive...Set us on the path toward energy independent in 10<br />years. Can you think of a better choice? Anyone more invested in that goal?<br />Anyone who is more knowledgeable or adept?<br /><br />I don\'t.<br /><br />Can you feel the ground starting to shake?<br /><br />Next out of the wings and onto the stage...<br /><br />The nominee for Secretary of Defense. Enter...General David Petraeus.<br /><br />As great as he was fighting a PC war...Imagine what he\'ll be like once he<br />and West have pressed the reset button on our rules of engagement. In<br />Petraeus we will have a Secretary of Defense whose mission will be to win.<br />PERIOD.<br /><br />Oh...I\'m not done yet.....<br /><br />Next up...The nominee for Attorney General...Pam Bondi.<br /><br />Bondi is a no nonsense fighter who has taken on the current administration<br />over Obamacare and WILL clean out the corruption rampant in that office<br />today.<br /><br />Okay, where are we? Who is now standing on the stage? The nominee...Allen<br />West...John Bolton...Sarah Palin...General Petreaus and Pam Bondi.<br /><br />How about a Secretary of the Treasury? We would need someone who has worked<br />for YEARS in the tax field who understands the overwhelming burden of tax<br />codes and who has, for years fought to restructure those codes.<br /><br />Welcome Michele Bachmann to the stage...The nominee for Secretary of the<br />Treasury.<br /><br />By now, fissures should be opening in the ground, rumbling coming from the<br />sky and the faint odor of brimstone should be in the air.<br /><br />We will need someone new...someone with new ideas to head up the Fed.<br /><br />Please welcome Ron Paul. Yes, I realize this, under Paul, will be a<br />temporary position; but somehow, I doubt Ron Paul wants to make a career of<br />running the Fed.<br /><br />Secretary of the Interior? Governor Bobby Jindal...COME ON DOWN!!!!!<br /><br />And finally...We need someone to head up the Department of Homeland<br />Security. We must have someone who understands the issues we face.<br />Someone who has worked in federal law enforcement. Someone who won\'t take<br />any crap from anybody.<br /><br />Please...a round of applause for...Sheriff Joe Arpaio.<br /><br />Feel free to substitute names...add your own choices, but these are mine.<br />The picks are only a part of the whole picture however. The impact is as<br />important as the names.<br /><br />Were the GOP nominee to do this...call a press conference and make such an<br />announcement...It would be unprecedented. Never before has a presidential<br />nominee entered the full on campaign with a fully assembled team.<br /><br />Can you even IMAGINE the shock-and-awe wave which would be sent through the<br />Obama campaign were the GOP nominee to do this?<br /><br />Think about it.<br /><br />From the word GO it would be unlike any previous presidential campaign.<br /><br />Instead of simply nominee X against Obama we would have Nominee X vs<br />Obama...Congressman Allen West vs Joe Biden...John Bolton vs Hillary<br /><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Clinton</span><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">...Sarah Palin vs Stephen Chu...General Petreaus vs Leon<br />Panetta...Pam Bondi vs Eric Holder...Michele Bachmann vs Tim Geitner...Ron<br />Paul vs Ben Bernake...Bobby Jindal vs Ken Salazar and Sheriff Joe Arpaio vs<br />Janet Napolitano.<br /><br />Think about that...Let that sink in...All campaigning at once. There would<br />be no way out for Obama as each and every key player on his team would be<br />exposed and held to account from the word GO. It would be a full on frontal<br />assault and Obama would have no place to hide.<br /><br />By adopting this proposal, Obama would be forced into a pot of boiling water<br />or into the fire. If he tried to rid himself of baggage he would be exposed<br />of running from his own record and that of the very people he\'s been<br />standing behind for political expediency. If he stays with them, he would be<br />forced to defend them. Boiling water or a raging fire...his choice.<br /><br />It\'s bold, brash and completely against the establishment business as usual<br />strategy.<br /><br />It\'s earth shaking.<br /><br />An entire assembled team of key cabinet positions...Each one a pitbull on a<br />T-Bone...hammering their liberal counterparts on every issue, every day,<br />from the word GO until November 6th, 2012.<br /><br />This is the third of my 3-part series this week. Yesterday\'s Standing on the<br />Right Principles and Tuesday\'s Inaugural Address comprising the other 2<br />parts.<br /><br />We will have to play the cards we\'re dealt with the GOP nominee, but tell me<br />THIS strategy wouldn\'t go a LONG way toward bringing the conservative voters<br />together. Tell me this strategy wouldn\'t pull in and appeal to independents.<br /><br />As voters, using THIS strategy, we would be voting for the whole team rather<br />than just the standard, business-as-usual Presidential 2-person ticket.<br /><br />SHARE THIS ARTICLE LINK FAR AND WIDE</span></p>',1,5,0,41,'2012-06-16 15:48:58',62,'Submitted by Helio Rodriguez','2012-06-16 15:51:34',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-06-16 15:48:58','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',2,0,1,'','',0,741,'robots=\nauthor='),(601,'Pipeline Blocked by Massive Clog','pipeline-blocked-by-massive-clog','','<p><img src=\"images/stories/keystone.jpg\" border=\"0\" /></p>','',1,16,0,73,'2012-06-16 15:53:22',62,'Submitted by Helio Rodriguez','0000-00-00 00:00:00',0,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-06-16 15:53:22','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',1,0,10,'','',0,646,'robots=\nauthor='),(602,'Obama Attorney’s Desperation Leads Him to Tell Florida Judge He is Not the Democratic Nominee','obama-attorneys-desperation-leads-him-to-tell-florida-judge-he-is-not-the-democratic-nominee','','<p>The case before Florida Judge Terry Lewis claims that Barack Obama does not meet the constitutional requirements for President of the United States.

Despite our screaming \"no\" from the rooftops, they forced Obamacare down our throats. Please forgive me for using the following crude saying, but it is very appropriate to describe what has happened. \"Don\'t urinate on me and tell me it\'s raining.\" Democrats say their mission is to give all Americans health care. The democrats are lying. Signing Obamacare into law against our will and the Constitution is tyranny and step one of their hideous goal of having as many Americans as possible dependent on government, thus controlling our lives and fulfilling Obama\'s promise to fundamentally transform America.<br /><br />I keep asking myself. How did our government move so far from the normal procedures of getting things done? Could a white president have so successfully pulled off shredding the Constitution to further his agenda? I think not.<br /><br />Ironically, proving America is completely the opposite of the evil racist country they relentlessly accuse her of being, progressives used America\'s goodness, guilt and sense of fair play against her. In their quest to destroy America as we know it, progressives borrowed a brilliant scheme from Greek mythology. They offered America a modern day Trojan Horse, a beautifully crafted golden shiny new black man as a presidential candidate. Democrat Joe Biden lauded Obama as the first clean and articulate African American candidate. Democrat Harry Reid said Obama only uses a black dialect when he wants.<br /><br />White America relished the opportunity to vote for a black man naively believing they would never suffer the pain of being called racist again. Black Americans viewed casting their vote for Obama as the ultimate Affirmative Action for America\'s sins of the past.<br /><br />Then there were the entitlement loser voters who said, <em>\"I\'m votin\' for the black dude who promises to take from those rich SOBs and give to me.\"</em><br /><br /></p>\r\n','\r\n<p>Just as the deceived Trojans dragged the beautifully crafted Trojan Horse into Troy as a symbol of their victory, deceived Americans embraced the progressive\'s young, handsome, articulate and so called moderate black presidential candidate as a symbol of their liberation from accusation of being a racist nation. Also like the Trojan Horse, Obama was filled with the enemy hiding inside.<br /><br />Sunday, March 21, 2010, a secret door opened in Obama, the shiny golden black man. A raging army of democrats charged out. Without mercy, they began their vicious bloody slaughter of every value, freedom and institution we Americans hold dear; launching the end of America as we know it.<br /><br />Wielding swords of votes reeking with the putrid odor of back door deals, the democrats landed a severe death blow to America and individual rights by passing Obamacare.<br /><br />The mainstream liberal media has been relentlessly badgering the Tea Party movement with accusations of racism. Because I am a black tea party patriot, I am bombarded with interviewers asking me the same veiled question. \"Why are you siding with these white racists against America \'s first African American president?\" I defend my fellow patriots who are white stating, <em>\"These patriots do not give a hoot about Obama\'s skin color. They simply love their country and oppose his radical agenda. Obama\'s race is not an issue.\"</em><br /><br />Recently, I have come to believe that perhaps I am wrong about Obama\'s race not being an issue. In reality, Obama\'s presidency has everything to do with racism, but not from the Tea Party movement. Progressives and Obama have exploited his race from the rookie senator\'s virtually unchallenged presidential campaign to his unprecedented bullying of America into Obamacare. Obama\'s race trumped all normal media scrutiny of him as a presidential candidate and most recently even the Constitution of the United States. Obamacare forces all Americans to purchase health care which is clearly unconstitutional.<br /><br />No white president could get away with boldly and arrogantly thwarting the will of the American people and ignoring laws. President Clinton tried universal health care. Bush tried social security reform. The American people said \"no\" to both presidents\' proposals and it was the end of it. So how can Obama get away with giving the American people the finger? The answer: He is black.<br /><br />The mainstream liberal media continues to portray all who oppose Obama in any way as racist. Despite a list of failed policies, overreaches into the private sector, violations of the Constitution and planned destructive legislation too numerous to mention in this article, many Americans are still fearful of criticizing our first black president. Incredible.<br /><br /><strong>My fellow Americans, you must not continue to allow yourselves to be \"played\" and intimidated by Obama\'s race or the historical context of his presidency. If we are to save </strong><strong>America</strong><strong> , the greatest nation on the planet, Obama\'s progressive agenda must be stopped.</strong><br /><br /><strong>Lloyd Marcus (black) Unhyphenated American, Singer/Songwriter, Entertainer, Author, Artist &amp; <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Tea Party Patriot</span><br /></strong></p>',1,5,0,43,'2012-06-23 16:20:18',62,'Submitted by Matt Krol','0000-00-00 00:00:00',0,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-06-23 16:20:18','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',1,0,1,'','',0,923,'robots=\nauthor='),(606,'Feds Jail New Mexico Family, Seize Everything They Own for Being Honest Legal Firearms Dealers','feds-jail-new-mexico-family-seize-everything-they-own-for-being-honest-legal-firearms-dealers','','<h3>This has got to be one of the grossest miscarriages of law enforcement that I’ve read about lately.<img src=\"http://godfatherpolitics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/rick-and-terri-reese-220x120.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"The Reeses\" align=\"right\" /></h3>\r\n<p>Rick and Terri Reese, along with their two sons Ryin and Remington ran a federally licensed gun shop in Deming, New Mexico.

He is meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Shimon Peres in Jerusalem. This is the question to which no one knows the answer: Why?</p>\r\n<p>My personal friend, Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman, with whom I recently had dinner in Jerusalem, met with Putin on December 7, 2011. Now I will tell you what transpired during that meeting. This information was not shared with me by Mr. Lieberman. Obviously, if he had done so in confidence, I would not be in a position to divulge this.</p>\r\n<p>Avigdor Lieberman is a Russian Jew and speaks Russian. He discussed with Putin the serious crisis with Iran and Syria. In the meeting, he said to the Russian leader: “You have the power to resolve the entire crisis in Syria and in Iran. China has agreed, behind the scenes, that if Russia takes the lead, it will follow suit.”</p>\r\n<p>This means that Iran cannot survive without the support of China and Russia. That support could end simply by Putin stepping on the world stage, and as Avigdor Lieberman said, “Being the savior of the world at this present moment.” I don’t like the comparison, but I understand what he meant.</p>\r\n<p>Putin despises both President Obama and Hillary Clinton. Mrs. Clinton has done everything to try to undermine and embarrass the Russian leader. On the other hand, Mr. Lieberman has done everything possible to build bridges with Putin—not because he agrees with him, but because he realizes the seriousness of the situation.</p>\r\n<p>The fact that President Putin is flying to Israel is extremely significant in view of the intelligence information I’ve just given you. You’ll not read about this in the press. Pray hard! If Putin takes the bait, then both the Syrian crisis and the Iranian crisis could end. If the Russian president can get the credit for it, a multitude of lives will be spared.</p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http://jerusalemprayerteam.org/email/2012/0623-2.htm\">Read online &gt;&gt;&gt;</a></p>','',1,1,0,1,'2012-06-24 02:20:49',62,'Mike Evans','2012-06-24 02:29:33',62,62,'2012-06-24 02:29:33','2012-06-24 02:20:49','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',2,0,110,'','',0,367,'robots=\nauthor='),(608,'A National Check-Up Part III The Political Crisis  ','a-national-check-up','','<table style=\"width: 423px;\" border=\"0\">\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td style=\"text-align: justify;\" width=\"396\">\r\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\r\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0px; font-family: Verdana,Geneva; margin-bottom: 0px; font-size: 11pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica, Calibri, Arial, sans-serif; color: #ff0000; font-size: 12pt;\"><strong>Special Bulletin</strong></span></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center; margin-top: 0px; font-family: Verdana,Geneva; margin-bottom: 0px;\" align=\"center\"><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica,Calibri,Arial,sans-serif; color: black; font-size: 11pt;\"><em>by Rick Joyner </em></span></p>\r\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0px; font-family: Verdana,Geneva; margin-bottom: 0px;\"><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica,Calibri,Arial,sans-serif; color: black; font-size: 11pt;\"><em> </em></span></p>\r\n</div>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" align=\"justify\"><span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: 10pt;\"> </span></p>\r\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\"><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica,Calibri,Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; font-size: 11pt;\"><img src=\"images/stories/OAKI-logo.png\" border=\"0\" alt=\"The Oak Initiative\" align=\"right\" />This is a brief on the third of seven main crises threatening our country.

In spite of all the blows that it has taken and the incomprehensible burdens our government has put on it, it is still chugging along. Even so, we should not presume that this will last. It is vulnerable and little is being done to lead it to a more stable and safe place. </span></div>\r\n<div><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica,Calibri,Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; font-size: 11pt;\">To a large degree, our economy is subject to the faith or doubts people have about it, evidenced by how just a little news can cause large swings in the stock market. This should cause all of us pause. Why is it so fragile? Why does it not have enough substance to stand on its own merit and strength? </span></div>\r\n<div><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica,Calibri,Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; font-size: 11pt;\">You can have an economy without a government, but you cannot have a government without an economy.

Rahimi told stories of gynecologists killing black babies on the orders of the Zionists and claimed the Bolshevik Revolution in 1917 was started by Jews.

They screamed “Christ-killers!” while he and his congregation burned to death.

When I personally confronted Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in New York City and asked him why he felt the way he did about the Jewish people he replied, “Have you read the Protocols?”</p>\r\n<p>He was referring to “The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion” a forgery printed in Czarist Russia more than 100 years ago that claims to reveal a Jewish plot to take over the world.

West disagreed.</p>\r\n<p>“But it <em>does</em> reflect the story I just told because it reflects a person that has studied political theory and ideology. I have a Bachelor’s degree and two Master’s degrees in political science, political theory, political ideology. And the thing is you have to be able to understand the two competing principles of philosophies of governance in this country,” Rep. West said.</p>\r\n<p>He continued:</p>\r\n<blockquote>\r\n<p>When you go back and you read the documents, the Declaration of Independence, the <em>full </em>declaration, the <em>full </em>Constitution, you’ll understand limited government, you’ll understand fiscal responsibility, you’ll understand individual sovereignty, free markets … strong national defense.</p>\r\n<p>But there are people on the other side, and you can call them whatever you wish, you can call it Communism, Progressivism, Socialism, Marxism, or <em>Statism</em> …They believe in creating and expanding an entitlement or welfare state.</p>\r\n</blockquote>\r\n<p>“And you can’t tell me that you’re not seeing that in the United States of America right now,” he added.</p>\r\n<p>Watch Rep.

It didn\'t matter that he had graduated from both Yale and Harvard, worked in business, ran a Major League Baseball enterprise, or successfully served as a Texas Governor before being elected to a second term with a recording-breaking 69% of the vote. He was forever branded the dim bulb and hick from Texas, out of his league in the Oval Office.</h2>\r\n<p>But that Barack Obama, he was the real deal - a Constitutional scholar, despite his never actually having performed as one. Obama was just another Chicago machine politician before being elected president.</p>\r\n<p>Given <a href=\"http://cnsnews.com/news/article/obama-thanks-those-who-have-defended-god-given-right-life\" target=\"_blank\">recent comments</a> he made from the White House, Obama\'s not much of a student of History, or human rights, either. \'\"In his remarks, Obama suggested that the Declaration (of Independence) was the first time the God-given rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness had been \"put to paper.\"\'</p>\r\n<p>While we may all love and embrace the recently celebrated Declaration of Independence, what Obama said of it simply isn\'t true. It\'s not even close.</p>\r\n<p>As it\'s primary author, Thomas Jefferson, acknowledged, the Declaration was never intended to be based upon original thinking ... or writing. It was meant to express the \"American mind,\" developed from and based upon centuries of thinking and writing, all of it well documented and commonly known.</p>\r\n<p>As Jefferson wrote in 1825, \'\"All its authority rests then on the harmonizing sentiments of the day, whether expressed in conversation, in letters, printed essays, or in the elementary books of public right, as Aristotle, Cicero, Locke, Sidney, &amp;c.\"\'</p>\r\n<p>What it simply was not is the first time the God given rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness were ever \"put to paper,\" as Barack Obama more than implied. So much for the notion liberals would have Americans believe, that we\'ve finally elected some genius who can make all their big government plans and schemes work, despite their having failed miserably every time they\'ve been tried by governments anywhere in the present, or past.</p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2012/07/07/So-Much-For-Obama-Being-The-Intelligent-One\">GOTO  Breitbart.com &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;</a></p>','',1,18,0,75,'2012-07-07 16:06:38',62,'Breitbart.com','0000-00-00 00:00:00',0,62,'2012-07-07 16:12:16','2012-07-07 16:06:38','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',1,0,2,'','',0,464,'robots=\nauthor='),(613,'A Tale of Two Kings','a-tale-of-two-kings','','<p><img src=\"images/stories/mikeevans.jpg\" border=\"0\" align=\"right\" />The current Prime Minister of Israel, Binyamin Netanyahu, and Republican presidential candidate, Mitt Romney, met in 1976. They have shared a friendship that has transcended time and distance ever since. Though they came from dissimilar backgrounds, Romney and Netanyahu were brought together by a new endeavor, the Boston Consulting Group. Each had been approached to act as a corporate advisor for the firm.  <br /> <br />Romney was a recent honors graduate from Harvard with dual degrees in law and business administration; Netanyahu, with an architecture diploma in hand, had just enrolled in the Sloan School of Management at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) to pursue a masters’ degree.</p>\r\n<p>How did these two men—one from a middle class Jewish background, the other a member of a wealthy Mormon family—form such a bond of friendship? When the two future politicians first met, neither Netanyahu nor Romney envisioned a relationship that would endure the test of time. Nonetheless, that chance encounter has led to four decades of personal camaraderie. Having gained age and experience, the men are now poised to lead two of the most prominent countries in the world.</p>\r\n<p>Though they were reared under vastly different circumstances, their views are quite similar on a number of issues. According to a quote from Romney in The New York Times, “We can almost speak in shorthand. We share common experiences and have a perspective and underpinning which is similar.” (To read my full take on this unexpected and important friendship, click here.)</p>\r\n<p>There is no doubt that Israel is under attack today.

This invitation comes following a visit from Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to Egypt last week.  <br /> <br />I am not surprised by the course events are taking. In fact five years ago I laid out the path the so-called “Arab spring” would follow. It’s the same pattern that we saw in Iran in 1979. There is first a revolution as people seek freedom and a greater voice in the government…and then a hardline Islamic regime takes power and crushes everyone who stands in their path.</p>\r\n<p>I remember well talking to the widow of the Shah of Iran. The grief that remained in her heart over the way her husband was betrayed and abandoned by the West, especially President Jimmy Carter, was still fresh. I have seen America betray our friends for the sake of appeasing our enemies before, and this story does NOT end well. It was interesting to me that even as Secretary of State Clinton was in Egypt to offer billions in American tax dollars to a government now headed by a radical member of a terrorist organization, her motorcade was pelted by shoes (a sign of intense disrespect in the Arab world) as she drove through Alexandria. We will not make these evil terrorists our friends by appeasing them. They still want to see Israel and America destroyed. </p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http://jerusalemprayerteam.org/email/2012/0717-2.htm\">View online &gt;&gt;&gt;</a></p>','',1,22,0,80,'2012-07-18 13:07:01',62,'Dr. Mike Evans','2012-07-18 13:21:29',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-07-18 13:07:01','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',2,0,11,'','',0,401,'robots=\nauthor='),(617,'With Iran Negotiations Failed, What Should the U.S., What Should Israel Do?','with-iran-negotiations-failed-what-should-the-us-what-should-israel-do','','<p>Perhaps you read last week in the Guardian or the New York Times the account of a former general of Iran\'s Revolutionary Guards who called supreme ruler Ayatollah Ali Khamenei\'s claims of a peaceful nuclear program a \"sheer lie.\"</p>\r\n<p>The former military man said in a letter that \"The inspectors of the International Atomic Energy Agency are fooling themselves if they believe that the nuclear facilities on and under the ground are only for peaceful purposes.\" He also asserted that Iran is paying Russia and China billions of dollars so that these nations will support Iran in its international nuclear negotiations.</p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http://www.factsandlogic.org/hotline_archive/FLAME_hotline_071712.html\">Read more  at FLAME &gt;&gt;&gt;</a></p>','',1,1,0,1,'2012-07-18 13:21:34',62,'FLAME','0000-00-00 00:00:00',0,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-07-18 13:21:34','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',1,0,106,'','',0,246,'robots=\nauthor='),(618,'Comparative Statistical Charts on the Obama Years','statistical-charts-on-the-obama-years','','<p><img src=\"images/stories/charts.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Charts on the Obama Years\" /></p>','',1,9,0,60,'2012-07-18 14:11:51',62,'Submitted by Carol Basset','2012-07-18 14:49:22',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-07-18 14:11:51','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',4,0,2,'','',0,114,'robots=\nauthor='),(619,'Comparative Statistical Charts on the Obama Years ','statistical-charts-on-the-obama-years-','','<p><a href=\"index.php?option=com_content&amp;view=category&amp;layout=blog&amp;id=60&amp;Itemid=122\"><img src=\"images/stories/experience.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Experience\" width=\"428\" height=\"253\" /></a></p>\r\n<p><a href=\"index.php?option=com_content&amp;view=category&amp;layout=blog&amp;id=60&amp;Itemid=122\">Click on image or here to view more charts &gt;&gt;&gt;</a></p>','',1,1,0,1,'2012-07-18 14:22:11',62,'Submitted by Carol Basset','2012-07-18 14:49:46',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-07-18 14:22:11','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',8,0,105,'','',0,306,'robots=\nauthor='),(620,'U.S. Bridges, Roads Being Built by Chinese Firms ','us-bridges-roads-being-built-by-chinese-firms-','','<p>{source}<span style=\"font-family: courier new, courier, monospace;\"><br /><span>&lt;</span>iframe width=\"420\" height=\"236\" src=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/fcPnDigSu2M\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen<span>&gt;</span><span>&lt;</span>/iframe<span>&gt;</span><br /></span>{/source}</p>\r\n<p>This video is the shocking truth that we Americans are being overlooked and forgotten.</p>\r\n<p>Does this arise enough disgust that in addition to letting everyone you know,  that you will actually take the time to WRITE and snail mail to the President, to both your Federal Senators and your local State Representatives?  It\'s time WE THE PEOPLE started to TAKE OUR COUNTRY BACK!!!!!</p>\r\n<p>(I-635 in Texas is being rebuilt  with underground tolls  from I-35 to I-45  and is contracted to a  CHINESE firm for over $5 billion.)</p>\r\n<p>Diane Sawyer reporting on U.S. bridge projects going to the Chinese....

Make no mistake, the implications are absolutely terrifying.</p>\r\n<p>“If I had been around with George Orwell back when he wrote ‘1984’ and I knew what I know now, he would have told me I was crazy,” Thor said, chuckling to himself before getting serious again. “Orwell couldn’t have predicted this.”</p>\r\n<p>Flashback to 1975, he explained, when Sen. Frank Church appeared on NBC’s “Meet the Press” and issued a dire warning about America’s invasive surveillance capabilities:</p>\r\n<blockquote>\r\n<p>“[America\'s intelligence gathering] capability at any time could be turned around on the American people and no American would have any privacy left. Such the capability to monitor everything: telephone conversations, telegrams, it doesn’t matter. There would be no place to hide.”</p>\r\n</blockquote>\r\n<p>That was based on the technology of the 1970s. We are now in the high-tech digital world of 2012 and as a result of the attacks on 9/11, the full might of the U.S. government’s surveillance capabilities has been unleashed on its citizens under the guise of “national security,” according to Thor.</p>\r\n<p>“Let me make this very clear: 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, our digital exhaust is being sucked up by the government,” he added. “It is being compiled on big server farms and it’s being analyzed by different computer programs, looking for any hint that you and I are up to no good.”</p>\r\n<p>In fact, the National Security Agency (NSA) has been compelling so much information on U.S. citizens that it actually outgrew its facility in Fort Meade, Md. and had to build a new facility outside of Salt Lake City to the tune of $2 billion, Thor explained.</p>\r\n<p>But that’s just the beginning.</p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http://www.theblaze.com/stories/author-brad-thor-dishes-on-his-new-book-24-hours-a-day-7-days-a-week-our-digital-exhaust-is-being-sucked-up-by-the-government/blacklist/\">Read More on The Blaze &gt;&gt;&gt;</a></p>','',1,13,0,70,'2012-07-23 13:51:42',62,'Posted on The Blaze','0000-00-00 00:00:00',0,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-07-23 13:51:42','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',1,0,11,'','',0,308,'robots=\nauthor='),(624,' Israel promises “heavy price” for those involved in Bulgaria attack  ','-israel-promises-heavy-price-for-those-involved-in-bulgaria-attack-','','<p><img src=\"images/stories/israel-80yb.gif\" border=\"0\" hspace=\"7\" align=\"left\" />My heart was broken by last week’s deadly attack on Israeli tourists in Bulgaria. So many times in Israel and other nations, I have knelt and prayed and wept with the families of terror victims. I have seen the deadly results of the hatred and anti-Semitism that drives the terrorists, and I am committed to do everything in my power to stop this ancient evil in its tracks.<br /><br />All of the signs point toward the involvement of Hezbollah and Iran in this attack. The suicide bomber reportedly had fake American identification and was apparently able to obtain a sophisticated explosive device capable of doing massive damage. Though it has not yet been confirmed, some sources say that the bomber had previously been held by the US at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba. <br /><br />Noting that Iran has been plotting and attempting terror attacks around the world on Jewish targets for the past year, my dear friend Prime Minister Netanyahu laid the blame squarely at the feet of the Islamic regime in Tehran. \"The time has come for all countries that know the truth to speak it,\" he said. \"Iran is the one behind the wave of terror. Iran is the number-one exporter of terror in the world.” <br /><br />Though this awful attack happened on the other side of the world, you and I have a very real role to play in response. We must not fail to pray for the protection of Israel and the peace of Jerusalem. We must support Israel in the public arena.

As a reminder, the Health Meter goes from <strong>1</strong> being the lowest and most dangerous, to <strong>10</strong> being the highest and healthiest. The Trend Arrow is for a quick reference rating with UP for getting healthier, DOWN for getting worse, and NEUTRAL for no change. These will be followed by a commentary to explain the ratings. <br /><br /><br /><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Media</strong></span> Present State (3) Trend UP<br /><br />If we were just judging this on the traditional, institutional media it would be a 2 with the trend going down. The reason for the higher rating with the positive trend is because the meltdown of credibility of the traditional media has opened the door wide for new media sources. These new sources continue to gain market share, especially those that are devoted to integrity and resist political bias. These are not only getting better at their craft, they are also bringing more accountability to all media. It is not surprising that \"alternative\" news sources are now the number one source of news and information for Americans. There are few countries in the world where their national news media is the main source of the people\'s news and information because of obvious bias. <br /><br />In the golden age of journalism, reporters and anchors were expected to keep their own prejudices out of the story, but now spin is the norm. As this has progressed the credibility of journalism has spun downward. This indicates an important fact traditional media has been slow to grasp-with all of the information sources available like the Internet, people are far more informed and independently minded, and journalists have lost their credibility as authorities to tell them what to believe. This is evidenced by how America remains a center-right nation in spite of the overwhelming spin of the left in traditional media.</span><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica,Calibri,Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; font-size: 10pt;\"><strong> <a href=\"http://www.theoakinitiative.org/oak-special-bulletins\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color: blue; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;\">...Read</a></strong></span></p>','',1,20,0,78,'2012-07-25 11:55:51',62,'Rick Joyner','2012-07-25 12:20:47',62,62,'2012-07-25 12:20:48','2012-07-25 11:55:51','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',2,0,40,'','',0,362,'robots=\nauthor='),(628,'Gingrich Stands with Bachmann: Investigate Muslim Brotherhood\'s Influence ','gingrich-stands-with-bachmann-investigate-muslim-brotherhoods-influence-','','<h1><img src=\"http://cdn.breitbart.com/mediaserver/Breitbart/Big-Peace/2012/07/25/bachmann-gingrich.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"390\" height=\"285\" /></h1>\r\n<div id=\"content_0_headlineimage_0_divImageShareStatic\">\r\n<div>\r\n<div>\r\n<div>Since first asking U.S. intelligence and security agencies to look into possible ties between Huma Abedin and the Muslim Brotherhood, the personal attacks on Rep.

That\'s why the media are so hot to get their hands on Romney\'s tax records for the past 25 years. They need something to \"pick through, distort and lie about\" -- as the Republican candidate says.<br /><br />Obama\'s usual campaign method, used in 100 percent of his races, has been to pry into the private records of his opponents.<br /><br />Democrats aren\'t going to find any personal dirt on the clean-cut Mormon, so they need complicated tax filings going back decades in order to create the illusion of scandal out of boring financial records.<br /><br />Romney has already released his 2010 tax return and is about to release his 2011 return. After all the huffing and puffing by the media demanding those returns, the follow-up story vanished remarkably quickly when the only thing the return showed was that Romney pays millions of dollars in taxes and gives a lot of money to charity.<br /><br />Let\'s take a romp down memory lane and review the typical Obama campaign strategy. Obama became a U.S. senator only by virtue of David Axelrod\'s former employer, the Chicago Tribune, ripping open the sealed divorce records of Obama\'s two principal opponents.<br /><br />One month before the 2004 Democratic primary for the U.S. Senate, Obama was down in the polls, about to lose to Blair Hull, a multimillionaire securities trader. But then the Chicago Tribune leaked the claim that Hull\'s second ex-wife, Brenda Sexton, had sought an order of protection against him during their 1998 divorce proceedings.<br /><br />Those records were under seal, but as The New York Times noted: \"The Tribune reporter who wrote the original piece later acknowledged in print that the Obama camp had \'worked aggressively behind the scenes\' to push the story.\" Many people said Axelrod had \"an even more significant role -- that he leaked the initial story.\"<br /><br />Both Hull and his ex-wife opposed releasing their sealed divorce records, but they finally relented in response to the media\'s hysteria -- 18 days before the primary. Hull was forced to spend four minutes of a debate detailing the abuse allegation in his divorce papers, explaining that his ex-wife \"kicked me in the leg and I hit her shin to try to get her to not continue to kick me.\" <a href=\"http://www.anncoulter.com/columns/2012-08-01.html#read_more\">Read More »</a></p>','',1,15,0,72,'2012-08-04 22:22:01',62,'Ann Coulter','2012-08-04 22:24:26',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-08-04 22:22:01','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',2,0,4,'','',0,977,'robots=\nauthor='),(640,'Disarming Americans?','disarming-americans','','<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"font-family: times new roman,times;\">The US Government armed Muslim fanatic citizens in and around Libya as rebels in order for them to kill people and <span id=\"IL_AD2\">break</span> things so they could to get their way. <a href=\"http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/americas-secret-plan-to-arm-libyas-rebels-2234227.html\">[1]</a></span></span></p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"font-family: times new roman,times;\">The US Government is arming Muslim fanatic citizens in and around Syria as guerrillas iin order for them to kill people and break things so they can to get their way.

A fierce battle erupted, with Democrats (and <a href=\"http://hotair.com/archives/2012/08/03/obama-democrats-suing-to-block-military-voting-in-ohio/\" target=\"_blank\">a few conservatives</a>) arguing that Obama campaign was simply trying to extend the military\'s privilege to everyone else. Regardless of the remedy they seek, Flynn points out, they are suing to end an exemption for military voters. It would not be the first time Democrats--who pretend, in their fight against voter ID, to want more ballot access--have tried to stop the military\'s votes from counting.</h3>\r\n<p>In 2008, for example, the State of Virginia (a critical swing state in 2012) had <a href=\"http://www.thenextright.com/soren-dayton/is-the-fairfax-county-va-registrar-suppressing-the-military-vote\" target=\"_blank\">failed</a> to send absentee ballots to members of the military on active duty in time for them to complete the ballots and return them before the election. When the campaign of Republican nominee Sen. John McCain sued to compel the state to count military ballots that had arrived after election day, the State Board of Elections--then run by Democrats, appointed by a Democratic governor--argued, effectively, that it could send absentee ballots to the military a day before the election and still be in compliance with the law.</p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2012/08/05/Democrats-Versus-Military-Voters-Not-the-First-Time\">Continue post at Brietbart.com &gt;&gt;&gt;</a></p>','',1,1,0,1,'2012-08-06 15:05:30',62,'Breitbart.com','2012-08-06 15:20:56',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-08-06 15:05:30','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',6,0,97,'','',0,286,'robots=\nauthor='),(642,'Official White House Pace Car','official-white-house-pace-car','','<p>The next time <a href=\"http://www.theblaze.com/stories/did-michelle-obama-and-jill-biden-get-booed-at-a-nascar-race-sunday/\">Michelle Obama speaks at a NASCAR event </a>she can bring her official pace car.</p>\r\n<p><img src=\"images/stories/obamacare_pace_car_420.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Obama Pace Car\" /></p>','',1,16,0,73,'2012-08-05 11:44:53',62,'Submitted by Tom Brake','0000-00-00 00:00:00',0,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-08-05 11:44:53','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',1,0,8,'','',0,388,'robots=\nauthor='),(643,'Conservatives Have a Secret','conservatives-have-a-secret','','<p>Excerpted from the above article.</p>\r\n<p><img src=\"images/stories/at_logo.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"The American Thinker\" hspace=\"7\" width=\"150\" height=\"45\" align=\"left\" />As many have noted, the declared goal of \"fundamentally transforming\" America clearly implies a basic distaste for America and Americans.

The principle of jury nullification compels citizen juries to rule on both the facts of a case, and the validity of the law being used in the case. The practice of jury nullification in judicial precedents comes through English common law dating back to the Magna Carta and before. It was widely understood that the power of citizen juries was to require the government to prove its case against a defendant, as well as the validity of the law in question. Without the leadership of the church and the enlightenment of the juries, this could not have had such effect.</p>\r\n<p style=\"MARGIN-LEFT: 0.5in\"><em>If a juror feels that the statute involved in any criminal offence is unfair, or that it infringes upon the defendant\'s natural God-given unalienable or constitutional rights, then it is his duty to affirm that the offending statute is really no law at all and that the violation of it is no crime at all, for no one is bound to obey an unjust law.\"</em> ~U.S. Chief Justice Harlan F. Stone, 1941-46</p>\r\n<p style=\"MARGIN-LEFT: 0.5in\"><em>If the jury feels the law is unjust, we recognize the undisputed power of the jury to acquit, even if its verdict is contrary to the law as given by a judge, and contrary to the evidence.</em> ~4th Circuit Court of Appeals, US v Moylan, 1969</p>\r\n<p style=\"MARGIN-LEFT: 0.5in\"><em>I know of no safe depository of the ultimate powers of society but the people themselves and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform them.</em> ~Thomas Jefferson</p>\r\n<p>Jury nullification was a common practice in our nation from the ratification of the Constitution until 1895 when the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that juries <em>were not to be informed </em>of principle of nullification by defense attorneys, nor were judges required to tell them about it. While the right remains, it has almost been forgotten since that time.</p>\r\n<p>It has been confirmed a number of times, and since that time it has become almost a safeguard that is hidden from the people. If a great treasure is hidden it cannot be used, but there seems to be a change in the wind.</p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http://www.theoakinitiative.org/oak-leaf-27\">Read entire post at Oak Initiative &gt;&gt;&gt;</a></p>','',1,20,0,78,'2012-08-08 15:40:12',62,'Lloyd Phillips - The Oak Initiative','2012-08-09 01:44:19',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-08-08 15:40:12','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',2,0,37,'','',0,273,'robots=\nauthor='),(648,'Look At What Allen West Did To Tick Off The Black Caucus!','look-at-what-allen-west-did-to-tick-off-the-black-caucus','','<p><img src=\"images/stories/allenwest.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Allen West\" hspace=\"7\" align=\"left\" />Rep. Allen West (R-FL) is someone I really like. I like that he says what he thinks and doesn’t mind if it ticks off the left. Apparently he made a nice gesture of providing free food for the Black Caucus. Instead of the Black Caucus being thankful that someone else provided food for them, they were offended. Why? Because what Rep. West sent them were Chick-Fil-A biscuits!</p>\r\n<p>Rep. Alcee Hastings (D-FL) said that it was a deliberate attempt to offend the members of the Congressional Black Caucus.</p>\r\n<p>“We have a rotation in the Congressional Black Caucus where every member provides the lunch one of the weeks when we meet,” Hastings told Huffington Post on Monday.</p>\r\n<p>“We have fried chicken. And we have catfish and BBQ. We do not have watermelon, although sometimes people will have fruit. We serve a full course meal with collard greens. We have Jamaican beans and rice,” he continued. “But West ”sent Chick-fil-A with biscuits. Ok?”</p>\r\n<p>“That was an ‘in your face.’ Every member of the Congressional Black Caucus that was there was offended,” he added.</p>\r\n<p>So let’s get this straight (pun intended, since the controversy over Chick-Fil-A deals with homosexual ‘marriage). Mr. Hastings and his Democrat colleagues are ok with chicken just as long as it isn’t chicken from Chick-Fil-A. they are such thin skinned, little people that they could not respond graciously and thank Rep. West for providing such wonderful food for their meeting. No, they had to go and get their dander up about what brand of Chicken was provided.<br /><br />Read more: <a href=\"http://freedomoutpost.com/2012/08/look-at-what-allen-west-did-to-tick-off-the-black-caucus/#ixzz230XMOGvo\" style=\"color: #003399;\">http://freedomoutpost.com/2012/08/look-at-what-allen-west-did-to-tick-off-the-black-caucus/#ixzz230XMOGvo</a></p>','',1,1,0,1,'2012-08-09 01:18:07',62,'Tim Brown for Freedom Outpost','0000-00-00 00:00:00',0,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-08-09 01:18:07','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',1,0,94,'','',0,298,'robots=\nauthor='),(649,'Gingrich: Sebelius Is “Waging War On The Catholic Church”','gingrich-sebelius-is-waging-war-on-the-catholic-church','','<p><img src=\"images/stories/newt.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Newt Gingrich\" hspace=\"7\" align=\"left\" />On Wednesday Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich said that Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius was “waging war on the Catholic Church.” His statement was in reference to the new mandate that health plans will be regulated to provide sterilizations, contraceptives and abortion-inducing drugs free of charge.</p>\r\n<p>“This secretary of HHS is a radical. She is waging war on the Catholic Church.

According to the lawsuit, Sebelius told NARAL “we are in a war” with institutions that, like the Catholic Church, believe both abortion and contraception are wrong.</p>\r\n<blockquote>\r\n<p>“Defendant Sebelius has long supported abortion rights and criticized Catholic teachings and beliefs regarding abortion and contraception,” the Catholic lawsuit states. “NARAL Pro-Choice America is a pro-abortion organization that likewise opposes many Catholic teachings. At that fundraiser, Defendant Sebelius said, ‘We are in a war,’ and criticized individuals and entities whose beliefs differed from those held by her and the other attendees of the NARAL Pro-Choice America fundraiser.”</p>\r\n<p>“She added: ‘Wouldn’t you think that people who want to reduce the number of abortions would champion the cause of widely available, widely affordable contraceptive services? Not so much,’” reads the lawsuit.</p>\r\n</blockquote>\r\n<p>Gingrich was asked how HHS was defining “work” in its policy on “welfare-to-work”. He responded, “I think this is part of what confuses some people in the media about the intensity of our reaction. George Orwell wrote a great essay called ‘Politics In the English Language,’ in which he said you could tell when someone is truly a scoundrel by the language they use to hide being a scoundrel. This secretary of HHS is a radical. She is waging war on the Catholic Church.

How are we (the police, the government) going to catch the murderer, drug dealer, rapist, thief, gun holder, if we are not given the extra power to go into their (civilians) homes, places of business, to get the evidence we need? It should be up to law enforcement and government officials discretion whether or not to enter into the home or place of business. The following people would be exempt from this law: The President of the United States, FBI, CIA, Homeland Security, Supreme Court Justices, Judges, and any and all law enforcement (state or local).<br /><br />Read more: <a href=\"http://freedomoutpost.com/2012/08/the-second-amendment-gone/#ixzz23F6hBAeL\" style=\"color: #003399;\">http://freedomoutpost.com/2012/08/the-second-amendment-gone/#ixzz23F6hBAeL</a></p>','',-2,15,0,72,'2012-08-11 13:07:11',62,'Lorri Anderson - Freedom Outpost','0000-00-00 00:00:00',0,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-08-11 13:07:11','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',1,0,0,'','',0,0,'robots=\nauthor='),(654,'Firm that Paid WH Advisor Linked To War Criminal','firm-that-paid-wh-advisor-linked-to-war-criminal','','<p><img src=\"images/stories/logo-foxnews.png\" border=\"0\" alt=\"FoxNews\" hspace=\"7\" align=\"left\" />A South African company in the spotlight for paying $100,000 in speaking fees to White House adviser David Plouffe is also in business with a Liberian official under U.N. sanctions for his ties to convicted war criminal and former Liberian dictator Charles Taylor.</p>\r\n<p>That\'s among the latest details to emerge on the connections involving MTN Group, a subsidiary of which paid President Obama\'s former campaign manager for engagements in late 2010, shortly before he joined the White House.<br /><br />Read more: <a href=\"http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/08/11/firm-that-paid-white-house-adviser-in-business-with-charles-taylor-tied/#ixzz23F90LM7R\" style=\"color: #003399;\">http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/08/11/firm-that-paid-white-house-adviser-in-business-with-charles-taylor-tied/#ixzz23F90LM7R</a></p>','',1,1,0,1,'2012-08-11 13:51:42',62,'FoxNews','2012-08-11 13:56:23',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-08-11 13:51:42','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',2,0,91,'','',0,351,'robots=\nauthor='),(655,'What Will It Take To Make Some Americans Wake Up?','what-will-it-take-to-make-some-americans-wake-up','','<p><img src=\"http://cnsnews.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/thumbnail/photos/Charlie Daniels7585.jpg\" border=\"0\" hspace=\"7\" width=\"75\" height=\"85\" align=\"left\" />I sometimes wonder how far some Americans are going to stick their heads in the sand and pretend that the policies liberals are putting in place will actually bring the American economy back to prosperity.

That one neighbor that’s not really paying attention, or that one person in your office that’s confused about how Barack’s tax plan will benefit . . . that individual.”</p>\r\n<p>The real knuckleheads are liberals who try the same failed policies over and over again and expect a different result.

Winston Churchill</p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">3. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.</p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">4. What one person receives without working another person must work without receiving.</p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">5. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.</p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">6. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.</p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">7. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them; and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that is the beginning of the end of any nation.</p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">8. “To compel a man to furnish funds for the propagation of ideas he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical.” ? Thomas Jefferson</p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">9. “You can’t tax business. Business doesn’t pay taxes. It collects taxes.” ? Ronald Reagan</p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">10. “There is no worse tyranny than to force a man to pay for what he does not want merely because you think it would be good for him.” ? Robert A. Heinlein (1907–1988), author of <em>The Moon is a Harsh Mistress</em> and<em> Starship Troopers<br /></em></p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">11. The power to tax is the power to destroy.” ? Supreme Court Justice John Marshall (1755–1835)</p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">12. “A democracy . . . can only exist until the people discover they can vote themselves largess out of the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidate promising the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that democracy always collapses over a loose fiscal policy —to be followed by a dictatorship.”</p>\r\n<p>If you can’t get these truths through your head, then you are a knucklehead.</p>\r\n<p><br /><br />Read more: <a href=\"http://godfatherpolitics.com/6558/michelle-who-calling-a-knucklehead/#ixzz23OGJwM00\" style=\"color: #003399;\">http://godfatherpolitics.com/6558/michelle-who-calling-a-knucklehead/#ixzz23OGJwM00</a></p>','',1,17,0,74,'2012-08-13 02:43:23',62,'Gary DeMar - Godfather Politics','2012-08-13 03:20:54',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-08-13 02:43:23','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',7,0,3,'','',0,455,'robots=\nauthor='),(659,'Police cameras quietly capture license plates, collect data','police-cameras-quietly-capture-license-plates-collect-data','','<p>Police in Minnesota and across the country are increasingly using small car-mounted cameras to scan thousands of license plates and pinpoint -- in real time -- stolen vehicles, suspended drivers and criminals.</p>\r\n<p>Those same cameras also record the time, date and location of every car they see and store the information.

This is why you often hear that we are a center-right nation. This is remarkable with about 85% of the media and 80% of educators being left-center or even further left. After we have been pushed hard to the left such as we have been recently, expect a hard push back to the right. When these trends become more and more extreme, they create very serious dangers, some of which we must understand to understand the times.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">About 30% of the people identify themselves as liberal or progressives in America, and about the same percentage identify themselves as conservatives. Usually, political battles are for the 40% in the middle. That middle can drift just a little in either direction and affect its outcome. Barack Obama won the election by about 6% of the vote, which means that if there had been just a 3% swing in the other direction, he would have lost. If you follow the public opinion polls during election cycles, you will quickly learn that a swing that small can happen in a day.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Other signs can be illuminating barometers of where a nation is. When the Cordoba Mosque was seeking support for building near the site of the 9/11 World Trade Center attack, 70% of Americans stated opposition to it. When the charges of Islamaphobia were spewed out by the media, the percentage opposing did not cave to the accusation, but rose further to 73% or 74%. This would be remarkable on any issue, indicating that the entire center and some of the hard core left even opposed it.

With the election now less than three months away, preventing war in the Middle East is outweighing all other considerations with Washington because of the impact on the economy. This is a tragic and short-sighted decision. Iran’s nuclear program is a threat to far more than just Israel. For the radical Islamic terrorist-sponsoring mullahs of Tehran to have these weapons of mass destruction is a lethal threat to the entire world. If the world and the US will not take the necessary steps, then Israel will be forced to do what is necessary to halt Iran’s evil work.<br /><br />My old friend Prime Minister Netanyahu will be meeting President Obama in Washington next month in what many observers believe is the last-ditch effort to prevent the horrors of open war that will fall on the Jewish people if they are forced to do what the world will not to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons.

But a slave owner benefits from the labor of the slave in the same way that people who believe it is right to tax the rich at a higher rate benefit from the labor and property of others that is not their own.</p>\r\n<p>This means that if an article reported that ‘A Majority of Americans Support Slavery,’ where is the foundational moral outrage to be found?</p>\r\n<p>Robert Ingersoll said it best:</p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">“Every man is dishonest who lives upon the labor of others, no matter if he occupies a throne.”</p>\r\n<p>Let me bring Ingersoll’s truism up to date:</p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">“Every man is dishonest who lives upon the labor of others, no matter if he gains the fruit of a person’s labor and property by majority vote.”<br /><br />Read more: <a href=\"http://godfatherpolitics.com/6664/a-majority-of-americans-support-slavery/#ixzz242lFVLek\" style=\"color: #003399;\">http://godfatherpolitics.com/6664/a-majority-of-americans-support-slavery/#ixzz242lFVLek</a></p>','',1,20,0,78,'2012-08-20 00:55:43',62,'Gary DeMar - Godfather Politics','2012-08-20 01:04:47',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-08-20 00:55:43','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',2,0,34,'','',0,265,'robots=\nauthor='),(667,'Michigan School District Lies to Christians and Jews Then Sells School Building to Muslims','michigan-school-district-lies-to-christians-and-jews-then-sells-school-building-to-muslims','','<p>There is no question that the Detroit suburbs have become the Muslim capital of America.

But now, Egypt’s president Mohammed Morsi, the virulent Muslim Brotherhood’s leader, is visiting Iran, which is the first time since the Camp David accords that the ties between the two countries have been reestablished.</p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Peace/2012/08/21/Netanyahu-determined-to-strike-Iran-before-elections\">Continue post on Breitbart.com &gt;&gt;&gt;</a></p>\r\n<p>More from Breitbart:</p>\r\n<h4><a href=\"http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2012/08/23/david-plouffe-iran\">White House Aide David Plouffe Takes Money Indirectly from Iran -- and Nobody Seems to Notice</a></h4>','',1,22,0,80,'2012-08-23 13:09:05',62,'Breitbart','2012-09-05 02:32:17',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-08-23 13:09:05','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',7,0,15,'','',0,411,'robots=\nauthor='),(675,'Will Obama Keep Power \'by Any Means Necessary\'?','will-obama-keep-power-by-any-means-necessary','','<p><strong>By</strong> <a href=\"http://www.americanthinker.com/stella_paul/\"><strong>Stella Paul</strong></a></p>\r\n<p><img src=\"images/stories/at_logo.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"American Thinker\" hspace=\"7\" width=\"313\" height=\"83\" align=\"left\" /> Let\'s go there: if Obama thinks he\'s losing, will he allow safe and fair elections on November 6?

I currently serve on both the Republican National Committee\'s Standing Committee on Rules and on the National Convention\'s Committee on Rules and Order of Business. <br /><br />I was Barry Goldwater\'s youngest elected delegate in 1964, I was honored to serve on President Ronald Reagan\'s White House Staff from 1981-1984, and I have attended every Republican National Convention Rules Committee meeting since 1972. My wife and I have contributed major donations to the Romney-Ryan campaign. <br /><br />These rule changes are the most awful I\'ve ever seen come before any National Convention. <br /><br />I\'m writing you today to urge you to join the growing effort to stop the worst-ever changes in this Rules Committee\'s Report and to vote in favor of amendments to Rules 12 and 15. The Minority Reports will restore important rights and protections which state parties and grassroots Republicans would lose under the Rules Committee Report as written. <br /><br />These amendments to Rules 12 and 15 are contained in Minority Reports supported by at least 25% of the members of this convention\'s Committee on Rules and Order of Business. <br /><br />It\'s rare for Minority Reports to come before our national convention, but the issues involved here are vital to the future of our party. <br /><br />I must tell you there is tremendous arm-twisting now to peel signers off of the Minority Reports. <br /><br />Finally, whether on Minority Reports or on voting down the Rules, it will require at least six states\' delegations to insist upon a roll call vote. <br /><br />I will not pretend that the deck is not stacked against us. <br /><br />But many state leaders, liberty-minded activists, and grass-roots conservatives are up-in-arms as word of this power grab spreads. <br /><br />Our convention will make this important decision Tuesday as some of our first work. Many folks skip these procedural sessions thinking nothing of importance occurs. <br /><br />This year, that is far from the truth. <br /><br />If the Rules Committee Report were to pass without adoption of the Minority Reports, it would amount to a power grab by Washington, D.C. party insiders and consultants designed to silence the voice of state party activists and Republican grassroots by:\r\n<p>*** <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Handing national party officials the power to change national party rules adopted by state and grassroots leaders at the Republican National Convention</span>. For generations, the prohibition of manipulated changes in the national Rules of the Republican Party between national conventions has served as one of the crown jewels of our party. It\'s a power grab which opens the door to many future power grabs.</p>\r\n<p>*** <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Stripping state parties in all states with binding primaries of the power of choosing who will represent their states as national delegates and alternate delegates</span>. This outrageous change would empower presidential campaigns to disapprove and remove delegates and alternate delegates selected by rules adopted by state Republican parties. Rather than grassroots activists who won delegate and alternate delegate slots by following state party rules, a large majority of positions would be handed to top donors of the winning campaign.</p>\r\n<p>*** <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Gutting the great and successful reform adopted in the current election cycle to stop the dangerous trend to front-load the selection of national convention delegates</span>. Our party would move again toward a national primary which would deny grassroots Republicans the opportunity to vet presidential candidates in a nomination contest of reasonable length. This reform must not be abandoned.</p>\r\nLike most of us delegates to this convention, I\'ve spent years gladly battling in the trenches for our Republican Party. <br /><br />And as the President of the Leadership Institute -- which specializes in training thousands of conservative activists, students, and leaders to fight for our country\'s future -- I can\'t tell you how disheartened I am to see these rules changes even considered. <br /><br />These rule changes would give good folks like you less of a say over our Republican Party in favor of insiders and consultants in Washington, D.C. <br /><br />At a time when Tea Party activists have re-invigorated our Republican Party -- leading to massive gains in the U.S. House, the Senate, and many state legislatures in the 2010 elections -- why would we want to discourage activism? <br /><br />Thanks to their efforts, you and I have a new generation of exciting conservative leaders in Washington, D.C., who -- in many instances -- were elected despite the opposition of establishment-backed opponents. <br /><br />Certainly this is not to say GOP leaders are always wrong. <br /><br />But history shows that our Republican Party grows when we welcome newly active participants and treat them fairly. <br /><br />Our Republican Party is strongest when we listen to the wishes of grassroots conservatives. <br /><br />Instead of strengthening our party, these insider power grabs will weaken it. <br /><br />For these reasons, I urge you to join the growing effort to adopt the Minority Reports when the Rules Committee Report comes up for consideration by the convention. <br /><br /><strong>Cordially,</strong><br /><img src=\"http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/cimages/8dbac5d3199a7199c9b1055e59e9e768/mortonsig.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"200\" /><br /><strong>Morton Blackwell<br />National Committeeman,Virginia</strong><br /><br />P.S. Some of the most important work of the convention will take place on Tuesday where you and I will be voting on rules that could fundamentally change our Republican Party for the worse. <br /><br />New rules will be voted on that have been designed to silence state Republican parties and Republican grassroots in favor of party insiders and Washington, D.C.-based consultants. <br /><br />The vote will take place at Tuesday\'s convention session, and I\'m counting on you join the growing effort to defeat these new rules. <br /><br />Please vote to adopt the Minority Reports on Rules and urge your delegation to call for a roll call vote on all Rules-related votes. <br /><br />This fight is too important for us not to make a stand. <br /><br /><a href=\"http://paracom.paramountcommunication.com/ct/9538604:12956433252:m:1:177854183:B2682209EF4F387FC67EADD818F408EB:r\"><strong>Please CLICK HERE to get the phone number for your state Republican Party headquarters.</strong></a> If you do not get someone live on the phone, please leave a message and call back first-thing in the morning.</div>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>',1,20,0,78,'2012-08-28 01:04:47',62,'Dudley Brown NAGR','2012-08-29 13:42:31',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-08-28 01:04:47','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',7,0,33,'','',0,577,'robots=\nauthor='),(615,'Ask Harry Reid About Chinese Solar Panels','ask-harry-reid-about-chinese-solar-panels','','<p><img src=\"https://eb9aa10c16-custmedia.vresp.com/be038d940e/TP_email2.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"TheTeaParty.net\" title=\"TheTeaParty.net\" hspace=\"0\" width=\"420\" height=\"65\" /></p>\r\n<table style=\"width: 420px;\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td width=\"5\" bgcolor=\"#091432\"> </td>\r\n<td width=\"640\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\">\r\n<table style=\"width: 420px;\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td align=\"left\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\"><br />Dear Patriot,<br /><br />OK, the uniforms the US Olympic Team will be wearing in the London Games were made in <a href=\"http://cts.vresp.com/c/?TheTeaParty.net/b3d110cf9c/c471d3b4f1/1ad39a3ff8/initiativekey=8ZYKPKD4EMCF\"><img src=\"https://eb9aa10c16-custmedia.vresp.com/b3d110cf9c/gadsden.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"gadsden\" title=\"gadsden\" hspace=\"3\" vspace=\"3\" width=\"167\" height=\"251\" align=\"right\" style=\"width: 167px; height: 251px;\" /></a>China.

The only exceptions to the rule are churches.<br /><br />Scores of other religious employers—including Catholic hospitals and Christian universities—objected to the rule, pointing out how it forces them to violate their conscience and their faith. As a result, in January the government announced it was revising the rule to create a so-called \"safe harbor\" for them: instead of being forced to comply in August, as all secular business owners were, they would have an extra year to find a way to make their faith coordinate with the mandate.<br /><br />Wheaton College, a Christian university in Illinois, didn\'t qualify for the \"safe harbor\" extension. So administrators sued the federal government, saying the mandate violates the First Amendment of the Constitution.<br /><br />And the federal government responded, not by backing away from the mandate, but by revising the rule yet again: Under a revision that took effect on Aug. 15, Wheaton College now qualifies for the deadline extension.<br /><br />As a result, the federal court that was hearing the case dismissed it last Friday, saying that because no one at Wheaton has yet been forced to violate their faith, no harm has been done.<br /><br />This is a brilliant piece of gamesmanship by the government. By revising the rule, the lawsuit disappears for another year—without a decision determining whether religious freedom trumps the edicts of federal health officials, and without dominating the headlines to remain in people\'s minds.<br /><br />The only problem is that the issue at the heart of the case can\'t be dismissed quite so easily. Either the First Amendment actually means something—including the public expression of one\'s personal faith—or it doesn\'t. And by punting the decision, the court has allowed a wrong to continue<a href=\"https://connect.focusonthefamily.com/aprimo/etrack.aspx?DSN=b9ca57b2fbe8cb42458807853387983f6a0f6be5ccdab113&amp;FORMID=73f001951d4db42565455b0f3282e685&amp;AUDID=762e0b4d1027e9c635494eb13059823c&amp;EMAILID=c0c6dcd8184f00d6c979114b87cd2710635947470a9cb178&amp;DECODE=1&amp;R=1ff778b315c61d38e0cdd0fb646ca951&amp;URL=http://www.focusonthefamily.com/donate.aspx?refcd=127106\"></a>.<br /><br />This then, is the heart of the struggle for religious liberty that is fast building to a crisis in our country.

The meeting was top secret. Only the ministers directly involved were part of it. Even their top aides were not allowed into the room. The group in the meeting is believed to have discussed the “zone of immunity,” the point at which Iran will be so advanced that a military strike will no longer be an option, as well as the worsening situations in Syria and Egypt.</p>\r\n<p>The briefings were conducted by the heads of Mossad (the intelligence agency), Shin Bet (the security agency), and IDF Military Intelligence.

Fourteen days ago President Obama issued an Executive Order that you should know about. This order gives an unprecedented level of authority to the President and the federal government to take over all the fundamental parts of our economy - in the name of national security - in times of national emergency.</p>\r\n<p>This means all of our water resources, construction services and materials (steel, concrete, etc.), our civil transportation system, food and health resources, our energy supplies including oil and natural gas – even farm equipment – can be taken over by the President and his cabinet secretaries. The Government can also draft U.S. citizens into the military and force U.S. citizens to fulfill \"labor requirements\" for the purposes of \"national defense.\" There is not even any Congressional oversight, only briefings are required.</p>\r\n','\r\n<p> </p>\r\n<p>By issuing this as an Executive Order the President puts the federal government above the law, which, in a democracy, is never supposed to happen.<br /><br />As President and Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces, he has the Constitutional authority to issue executive orders. And while similar orders have been made before by presidents from Eisenhower and Reagan to Clinton and George Bush – it has never been done to this extent.<br /><br />It is still unclear why this order was signed now, and what the consequences are for our nation – especially during times of peace. This type of Martial Law imposes a government takeover on U.S. citizens that is typically reserved for national emergencies, not in a time of relative peace.</p>\r\n<p><a href=\"http://kaygranger.house.gov/weekly-enewsletter-executive-order-you-should-know-about\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Read...</span></strong></span></a></p>',1,20,0,78,'2012-09-07 13:25:46',62,'Submitted by Matt Krol','2012-09-14 00:14:59',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-09-07 13:25:46','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',3,0,30,'','',0,515,'robots=\nauthor='),(694,'The Path of Life, Part 30 -- Kingdom Economics','the-path-of-life-part-30-kingdom-economics','','<p>Week 37, 2012</p>\r\n<div>\r\n<div><a href=\"http://morningstarministries.org/biographies/rick-joyner\" title=\"                                        Rick Joyner is the founder and executive director of MorningStar Ministries and Heritage International Ministries and is the Senior Pastor of MorningStar Fellowship Church.

The first is unity, and this is making unprecedented possibilities unfold for the church. Those with faith seize possibilities. Those who live by fear instead of faith get left behind. On His last night on earth, Jesus prayed earnestly for the unity of His people. We can be sure that the prayer of the Son of God will be answered. The body of Christ will come into unity.</p>\r\n<p>Benjamin Franklin exhorted the original colonies before the Revolutionary War in America to “join or die.” This is now true for the church. Those with the faith and confidence in their own calling and relationship to the Lord are building bridges with other parts of the body of Christ. Those who are too insecure to do this are fading away. We are in another “join or die” situation, but the positive of this implies, “join and live!” The blessings of unity are truly limitless even to the degree that whatever we ask of the Lord, it will be granted.  <a href=\"http://www.morningstarministries.org/resources/word-week/2012/kingdom-economics-path-life-part-30?utm_source=The+MorningStar+Ministries+eNewsletter&amp;utm_campaign=9688ba1e3f-eNewsletter_September_11+_2012&amp;utm_medium=email\">Read more &gt;&gt;&gt;</a></p>','',1,20,0,78,'2012-09-12 00:24:45',62,'Morningstar Ministries','2012-09-12 00:36:32',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-09-12 00:24:45','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',2,0,29,'','',0,456,'robots=\nauthor='),(695,'9/11/2012: American Killed, Consulate Burned, Embassy Overrun, U.S. Apologizes','9112012-american-killed-consulate-burned-embassy-overrun-us-apologizes','','<h2><a href=\"http://www.breitbart.com/system/wire/TX-PAR-PGW50\" target=\"_blank\"><img class=\"caption\" src=\"images/stories/contributor-80x100-dloesch.png\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Dana Loesch\" title=\"Dana Loesch\" align=\"left\" /><img src=\"images/stories/breitbart_logo.png\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Breitbart\" hspace=\"7\" align=\"left\" />An American has been killed</a> on the 11th anniversary of 9/11 as Islamist mobs attacked and burned the U.S. consulate in Libya.</h2>\r\n<blockquote style=\"margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px; padding: 0px;\">\r\n<p>A US official was killed and another wounded on Tuesday as an armed mob protesting over a film they said offended Islam attacked the US consulate in Benghazi, an official told AFP.</p>\r\n<p>Libya\'s deputy interior minister Wanis al-Sharef said: \"One American official was killed and another injured in the hand.

In response to this outrageous act of war, US Embassy officials in Cairo issued a cowardly statement condemning “the continuing efforts by misguided individuals to hurt the religious feelings of Muslims as we condemn efforts to offend believers of all religions.” Later another Islamic mob stormed the US consulate in Benghazi, Libya killing the US Ambassador and three other Americans. Most recently, another protest at the embassy in Yemen again breached security walls, but no US personnel were injured there.  <br /> <br />Why is this happening right now? The answer lies in our attitude toward the world and the threat of terrorism. On September 23, 1980, during the Carter-Reagan presidential race, I met with the head of Israeli intelligence, Isser Harel, who told me that America was developing a dangerous tolerance for terror. He said, “America has the power but not the will to fight terrorism. Terrorists have the will but not the power.” He further said all that would change with time because Arab oil could buy more than tents. Harel prophetically predicted that the first terrorist attack on American soil would be on New York City’s tallest building.</p>\r\n','\r\n<p> </p>\r\n<p>Today the same Liberal Left pied-pipers are playing the same song they played more than thirty years ago. Rather than believe that those who wage war against us are evil, they would have us believe that we are the evil ones for retaliating—or worse, preemptively striking to prevent danger to regional or world security. We see this mindset on display when a modern-day Hitler on steroids—Mahmoud Ahmadinejad—is invited to address the United Nations on Yom Kippur, and the Prime Minister of Israel cannot even get a meeting with the President of the United States.</p>\r\n<p>This attitude of appeasement is deadly. It places the United States, Israel, and all those who have not yet bowed to the will of Islamic sharia law in great danger. There is a literal life and death struggle taking place on the world stage today. And you and I must be more than spectators to these prophetic events.</p>\r\n<p>God has spoken an eternal promise of blessing for those who bless the children of Abraham.

The Iranian bomb constitutes an existential threat to Israel, not to America. So Israel has good reasons to suspect that the current US Administration is bluffing when it says that all options are on the table to prevent Iran from getting the bomb. The US badly wants out of the Middle East. The war in Iraq is over, and the war in Afghanistan will be over soon. The US does not want to be part of another war. </p>\r\n','\r\n<p>Many of the US Muslim allies in the region have been overthrown thanks to a US policy of supporting “human rights” groups, many of which are nothing of the sort such as the radical Muslim Brotherhood. We made this same mistake in Iran paving the way for Ayatollah Khomeini to come to power. Israel is now encircled by Muslim fanatics and even worse, a Muslim Hitler whose threats to exterminate the Jewish people are being ignored by the world. Once Iran goes nuclear, a trillion-dollar atomic arms race will begin in the Gulf oil states—with Russia being the contractor. This will bring about Armageddon in a decade for sure...Jesus said, “When you see these things, look up for your redemption draweth nigh!”</p>\r\n<p>I am not discouraged despite all of this. Today I want to challenge you to enlarge your faith and expect God\'s supernatural provision in your life. Genesis 24:1 says that Abraham was blessed in every way. I love that! What were his blessings?</p>\r\n<p>Abraham was very wealthy in livestock, silver, and gold. He wasn’t rich when God first called him, but he became rich because of the blessing of God upon his life (Genesis 13:2, Deut. 8:18). Abraham also had great favor. The people said to him, “You are a mighty prince among us.” God can supernaturally elevate you to places of favor and influence. Psalm 75:6 says that promotion comes from God.</p>\r\n<p>Abraham’s son was abundantly blessed. When Abraham died, he left everything to Isaac, but the Bible says that God blessed Isaac in his own right. In one year, he reaped 100-fold on his crops, and he became very wealthy. You can pass the blessings down, but God also has additional blessings for your children. He wants them to increase even more (Genesis 25:5, 26:12–14)!</p>\r\n<p>Abraham even received material blessings that he didn’t have to work for. Psalm 105:44 says, “Abraham fell heir to what others had toiled for.” We’ve got to get ahold of this! The Bible says the wealth of the sinner is passed on to the just (Proverbs 13:22)! God can bless you with things that you don’t even have to work for. Deuteronomy 6:11 says that He will give you houses that you did not build, wells that you did not dig, and vineyards that you did not plant.</p>',1,22,0,80,'2012-09-17 15:19:11',62,'Dr. Michael Evans','2012-09-18 14:17:20',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-09-17 15:19:11','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',4,0,4,'','',0,637,'robots=\nauthor='),(706,'Romney: \"Palestinians have no interest whatsoever in establishing peace,\"','romney-qpalestinians-have-no-interest-whatsoever-in-establishing-peaceq','','<p><span id=\"ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_article_control_lblTeaser\"><img src=\"images/stories/jerusalem_post.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"The Jerusalem Post\" hspace=\"7\" align=\"left\" />US Republican presidential candidate filmed at fundraising dinner saying Palestinians \"have no interest whatsoever in establishing peace,\" adding Iran would use nuclear capability to blackmail US. <strong><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"> </span></span></strong><a href=\"http://www.jpost.com/USPresidentialrace/Article.aspx?id=285410\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">READ</span></span></strong></a></span></p>','',1,1,0,1,'2012-09-18 14:23:14',62,'Jerusalem Post','2012-09-18 14:37:16',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-09-18 14:23:14','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',3,0,71,'','',0,325,'robots=\nauthor='),(707,'A Word About Freedom','a-word-about-freedom','','<p><img src=\"images/stories/OAKI-logo.png\" border=\"0\" alt=\"The Oak Initiative\" align=\"left\" />President Reagan once said, “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.

Miller, <em>PJ Media</em>, September 3, 2012</p>\r\n<p><strong>After a lengthy trial, an Israeli court</strong><strong> found that the death of International Solidarity Movement activist Rachel Corrie was an accident.</strong> Rachel Corrie\'s death was an accident, but it was not a tragedy. The tragedy is to be seen in the deaths of all the other Rachels — there are about a dozen of them — and the hundreds of other innocents who died at the hands of the people Rachel Corrie was trying to protect. Rachel Corrie was a willing and active accomplice helping people bent on committing mass murder. If her intended victims were not Jews, the world would not be beatifying her as some sort of saintly peace activist.</p>\r\n','\r\n<p> </p>\r\n<p>The entire Rachel Corrie episode is an encounter with the absurd. Corrie joined the anarchist International Solidarity Movement (ISM), which takes naïve leftists like Corrie and puts them in dangerous situations with the hope that their death or injury will make them poster children for the Palestinian cause. The ISM does not support a two-state solution. The only outcome it envisages to the Palestinian/Israeli conflict is the destruction of the Jewish state and, of course, with it, the Jews. The ISM makes no secret of its goals and aspirations. When Corrie signed on to go to the war zone known as Gaza and stand in front of Israeli bulldozers that were destroying tunnels and homes being used to smuggle and store arms and munitions designed to kill Jews, she knew she was helping mass murderers.</p>\r\n<p>Corrie stood in front of a bulldozer whose uplifted blade made it impossible for the driver to see her. She was simply too close to the bulldozer to be in the field of vision, like being too close to an SUV backing up in reverse. By the time Corrie realized that the bulldozer was not going to stop, she started moving backward and fell into a trench, which the bulldozer drove over causing her to be crushed by the falling dirt. Her death was exactly the kind of event the ISM wanted: an American student dying at the hands of a bulldozer operated by the Israeli Defense Forces.</p>\r\n<p><strong>Since her death, Corrie\'s activist, militant, and Israeli-bashing parents</strong> have transformed her death into a cottage industry. The Corries can be seen making the rounds of the liberal churches talking about the Palestinian cause and how the Israelis maliciously killed their daughter. For audiences predisposed to hate Israel and support the Palestinians as an oppressed people, the Corries and their \"martyred\" daughter comprise a saga that reinforces their jaundiced views.</p>\r\n<p>It is not just the liberal churches that venerate the Corries. Yasser Arafat, too, showered them with adulation for donating their daughter to the cause. Just as their daughter put her life at risk to help mass murderers, the parents stand for photo ops with people who speak of past crimes against Jews and openly boast of those they are about to commit.</p>\r\n<p>The Corries have learned nothing from their daughter\'s experience. Mrs. Corrie openly brags of two nieces who are active members of the ISM, and she hopes their activism will emulate her daughter\'s.</p>\r\n<p>Clearly, the Corries are trying to expiate their own guilt. What parents encourage their daughter to go into a war zone to stand before bulldozers that are trying to protect innocent people by destroying tunnels and buildings used to transfer munitions for suicide bombers? What parents encourage their child to join an anarchist organization that thrives on placing the naïve in harm\'s way while lusting after the inevitable and ensuing propaganda benefit from their death and injury? Did the Corries hate Jews more than they loved their child?</p>\r\n<p>It is as if through speaking engagements and appearance at cinema and stage performances about their daughter, the Corries have not only helped perpetuate the myth of Saint Rachel, the peace activist, but also absolved themselves of any responsibility for their daughter\'s death.</p>\r\n<p><strong>Rachel\'s parents filed a suit in Israeli court against the Israeli Defense Forces</strong> for being responsible for their daughter\'s death. Now, let\'s think a moment about this picture. Is there any other country in the Middle East, or in the world for that matter, where your daughter can stand in a war zone and have no expectation that harm will come to her? The ISM has sent no one to Syria to protect its citizens from the murderous Bashar Assad. The ISM has sent no one to Egypt to protect Christians and secularists from the murderous zealotry of the Muslim Brotherhood. The ISM does not stand in the streets of Saudi Arabia and campaign for an end to gender apartheid. The ISM is not standing in the streets of Tehran demonstrating against Iran\'s nuclear program. Only in Israel does the ISM believe it has a right to enter a war zone and interfere with a country\'s military operations. And only in Israel does it somehow have a right to go into court and sue the state for conduct that would earn it a bullet in most Middle East countries. To add insult to injury, it is Hillary Clinton\'s State Department that is assisting the Corries in this exercise in the absurd.</p>\r\n<p>I doubt if the Corries ever thought they had a case. The trial and the verdict were merely a means for the Corries to do what they do best — to mobilize the Israel-bashing left and its sycophants in the press to further attack the Jewish state. If an Israeli court ruled against the IDF, which it indeed has done in some cases, then that would have been a further testimony to the beatification of Rachel Corrie. And if, as predicted, the court ruled against the Corries, that would have provided a means to further push Saint Rachel into the headlines and for such rags as the Guardian to spill their anti-Semitic bile. Indeed, the Guardian condemned the verdict, calling it a further whitewash of the tragedy. The Guardian\'s Harriet Sherwood brought to her analysis the fatuous, progressive cliché about the cycle of violence, as if destroying a house that stores weapons and munitions for killing civilians is the moral equivalent of using those weapons and munitions to blow up a pizza parlor.</p>\r\n<p>It would seem to me that if you go out in a combat zone and stand in front of a bulldozer, especially one with its blade raised, maybe you\'re responsible for your own stupidity and the harm that comes to you. And, perhaps, the militant and activist parents who encouraged you to be there are also responsible.</p>\r\n<p><strong>What are the Corries due? They\'re due the same concern and compassion</strong> they have shown to the victims of the suicide bombers their daughter was enabling. To date, that has been nothing, not so much as an iota of regret, compassion, or condolence. And of the dozen or so Jewish Rachels that have been killed by suicide bombers, the leftist media has not found one worthy of the adulation that it has conferred on the naïve girl who stood in front of a bulldozer to enable mass murderers to carry out their operations.</p>\r\n<p>If the Corries want to comprehend who really is responsible for their daughter\'s death, they should start by first looking in the mirror and then convincing their nieces not to follow in Rachel\'s footsteps. Of course, we know that would be terribly unlike the Corries, for it would deny them the veneration they have discovered for themselves and which they so desperately need to give some meaning to the death of a daughter who sought to enable mass murderers.</p>\r\n<p><em>Abraham H.

The Vatican-inspired Crusaders deliberately murdered Jewish people during the Middle Ages. The Roman Catholic Inquisitions were directed against the Jews in Spain and elsewhere, leaving many dead or in prison. The pogroms of Russia and Eastern Europe forced Jews from their homes and left untold numbers dead.  <br /> <br />As evil as these anti-Semitic assaults were, they all pale in comparison to the Holocaust of World War II. Some six million Jews perished in “Christian” Europe, at least one million of them children. They were the victims of a cruel regime that had sprung up in the very land where Martin Luther sparked the Protestant Reformation. A full one-third of the entire Jewish race was wiped off the face of God’s green earth by Hitler’s Nazi forces. The utter horror of the hideous Holocaust, as revealed by the testimonies of death-camp survivors, cannot be overstressed.</p>\r\n<p>Too late, many Germans recognized the blessings that the Jewish people brought to their society before Hitler’s tragic rise to power. Jewish composers, scientists, doctors, teachers, writers, and others contributed their significant talents and intelligence to the land of Luther and were repaid with Hitler’s death chambers. American Christians should be the first to welcome the many contributions and blessings brought to this great land by our Jewish citizens.</p>\r\n','\r\n<p>During one of my first trips to Israel nearly three decades ago, I spent an afternoon with a brilliant Jewish scholar. He was researching and writing a book on the Spanish Inquisition. We talked for hours about his findings. Have you ever wondered why Columbus sailed in search of a new land in 1492? Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand had issued an edict of ejection regarding the Jews. It stated that every person of Jewish descent had to leave Spain or be executed. Jewish businessmen went to Christopher Columbus, an Italian Jew, and pledged to finance his efforts to discover a new land. They purchased the ships that carried Columbus across the ocean to the shores of what would become America.</p>\r\n<p>In 1776, when the 13 Colonies were fighting the British during the American Revolution, the colonial soldiers were poorly armed, starving to death, and on the verge of defeat. A Jewish banker from Philadelphia, Hyman Solomon, went to the Jews in America and Europe and gathered a gift of one million dollars. He gave the money to George Washington to buy clothes and arms to outfit the American troops. Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness were born on American soil as a result of that gift.</p>\r\n<p><img src=\"http://tool.donation-net.net/Images/Email/1032/us_one_dollar_bill_reverse.jpg\" border=\"0\" /></p>\r\n<p>To show his appreciation, George Washington had the engravers of the U.S. one-dollar bill include a memorial to the Jewish people over the head of the American eagle. Look closely. You will find 13 stars of the Mogen David, the Star of Israel. Around that star is the cloudburst of the glory in the tabernacle. Our God-fearing President, George Washington, decreed that there must be a memorial to the Jewish people for the contributions they made to further this nation.  <br /> <br />America has been blessed because she has blessed the nation of Israel (Genesis 12:1-3). But America is in danger of moving away from the place of blessing to the place of cursing. The land-for-peace deals of recent years have placed Israel and the Jewish people in grave danger.

Socialism and even communism have managed to survive in the ruthless Islamic political system as an alternative to full-fledged Shariah. The two ideologies blended together in the Baath Party in Syria, Iraq and socialist regimes in Egypt and Yemen. One major difference between the two ideologies is that Islam uses Allah, while socialism uses atheism, to fight the God of Christianity. Free democracies such as the United States are alien to Islam and socialists because they regard government as a servant to the people and believe that human rights are from God and not from government or Shariah.  <span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong> </strong></span></span><a href=\"http://www.wnd.com/2012/10/the-consequences-of-obamas-love-of-islam/\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>READ</strong></span></span></a></p>','',1,20,0,78,'2012-11-04 19:25:07',62,'Nonie Darwish -- WND','0000-00-00 00:00:00',0,62,'2012-11-04 19:38:19','2012-11-04 19:25:07','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',1,0,18,'','',0,538,'robots=\nauthor='),(772,'Vote','vote','','<p><img src=\"images/stories/Election_Day_Duty1.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Vote\" width=\"420\" height=\"340\" /></p>\r\n<p><img src=\"images/stories/president_obama_smoking_cigarettes.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Barack Hussein Obama\" width=\"122\" height=\"158\" align=\"left\" /><img src=\"images/stories/obey_obama.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Barack Hussein Obama\" width=\"104\" height=\"165\" align=\"left\" /></p>','',1,1,0,1,'2012-11-06 11:36:04',62,'NY Daily News','2012-11-06 11:48:19',62,62,'2012-11-06 11:48:20','2012-11-06 11:36:04','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',2,0,30,'','',0,462,'robots=\nauthor='),(773,'Communist Cuba\'s Support for Their \"Compatriot\" Barack Hussein Obama','communist-cubas-support-for-their-qcompatriotq-barack-hussein-obama','','<p>An email from a friend in Miami:</p>\r\n<p><em><strong>Subject:</strong> </em><strong><em>si esto no es prueba de dónde viene el señor, mejor es que nos vayamos a otro lugar</em>  </strong><strong> (<span>If this is not proof that the Lord is coming, it is better that we go to another place)</span></strong></p>\r\n<p><strong></strong> <em>Al leer esta portada del diario Granma, se me retuerce el estómago y me pregunto cómo hay compatriotas cubanos que todavía puedan votar por este hombre...qué más prueba de sus intenciones que esté respaldado por el régimen sanguinario y bochornoso de nuestra patria...</em>   (<span>Read this cover of the Granma newspaper, turns my stomach and I wonder how there are Cuban patriots who can still vote for this man...

As I’ve outlined in greater detail here before (<a href=\"http://www.forbes.com/opinions/2008/11/27/thanksgiving-economy-history-oped-cx_jb_1127bowyer.html%29\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Lessons From a Capitalist Thanksgiving</span></a>), the original colony had written into its charter a system of communal property and labor. As William Bradford recorded in his <em>Of Plymouth Plantation</em>, a people who had formerly been known for their virtue and hard work became lazy and unproductive. Resources were squandered, vegetables were allowed to rot on the ground and mass starvation was the result. And where there is starvation, there is plague. After 2 1/2 years, the leaders of the colony decided to abandon their socialist mandate and create a system which honored private property. The colony survived and thrived and the abundance which resulted was what was celebrated at that iconic Thanksgiving feast.   <a href=\"http://finance.townhall.com/columnists/jerrybowyer/2012/11/23/how_a_failed_commune_gave_us_what_is_now_thanksgiving\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><strong>READ</strong></span></span></a>  <img src=\"images/stories/townhalllogo.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Townhall\" hspace=\"7\" align=\"left\" /></p>','',1,20,0,78,'2012-11-23 13:45:04',62,'Townhall  --  Jerry Bowyer','0000-00-00 00:00:00',0,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2012-11-23 13:45:04','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',1,0,12,'','',0,595,'robots=\nauthor='),(788,'Barack Hussein Obama -

Bad News. A bill comes in the mail. A text. A news cast. A feeling forms in your gut. The feeling is hard to shake. </span></p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica,sans-serif; color: black; font-size: 9pt;\">I do not think that the person who lives by faith immediately dismisses evil tidings and seemingly insurmountable obstacles with a simple wave of the hand. The arrow stings when it strikes. For a brief period, darkness seems to overwhelm.</span></p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica,sans-serif; color: black; font-size: 9pt;\">But faith strikes a match. A tiny candle is lit. Soon, one candle after another brightens the dark place until it becomes a haven of light. Faith looks<em> back</em> before it can look <em>ahead</em>. Faith functions best when it goes back to the solid rock of Promise. As we repeat (preferably out loud) and meditate upon a sure word of God, more candles are lit in the midst of the dark moment which otherwise would churn our insides into a sea of anguish and hopelessness.</span></p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica,sans-serif; color: black; font-size: 9pt;\">It is exceedingly helpful to think about the times in your past when you know that God delivered you. Praise Him for those times and then allow faith to reason that He will do it again. Hope is given birth anew based upon the word of promise and the calling to mind of His faithfulness. This exercise of faith is not automatic. It must be actively renewed or else it will languish. Then faith and hope unite to dismiss the fear. Allow faith and hope to mature and go a step further and trample upon the lies that gave birth to the unbelief that inspired the fear!!</span></p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica,sans-serif; color: black; font-size: 9pt;\">Difficult circumstances demand this kind of faith. The process usually begins with the onset of anguished feelings. The candles are lit, one by one. As soon as possible, praise and thanksgiving must emerge so that the forces of heaven can be engaged which then cause the deception of fear to be trampled beneath your feet. Note: praise is like a piece of clothing that must be taken out of the closet and put on your body!!!</span></p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica,sans-serif; color: black; font-size: 9pt;\">Yesterday’s victory in this does not guarantee today’s success. The process must be re-visited anew when the arrow pierces afresh. Bad news, in all its varieties, shapes and sizes, is thus subjected to the ever watchful eye of Heaven’s Almighty Majesty: the Ancient of Days; Who has never been caught off-guard by bad news and Who never gets nervous about the future. This same One lives insides you and me. When we engage this incredible truth, our troubles, our bills, our impossible circumstances become a foot stool under His feet. </span></p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica,sans-serif; color: black; font-size: 9pt;\"><a href=\"http://johngelliott.com/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Go to JohnGElliot.com &gt;&gt;&gt;</span></span></strong></a></span></p>','',1,20,0,78,'2012-12-04 03:42:31',62,'John G.

We will not survive without radical surgery.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As I write this, there is a debate going on about the merits of the deal reached between the President and the Congress to avoid going over “the fiscal cliff.” The fact is that the deal they reached was itself a leap over the cliff. Every solution our government is coming up with now to solve our problems is only exacerbating them. Where has this madness come from?</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Once you miss a turn and take the wrong road, it will never turn into the right road. The only way to get back on the right road is to go back to where you missed the turn. There is a road to a secure, free, and prosperous future for every American, but we cannot continue going the direction we are now going and last much longer as a free people.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You can have the most perfect form of government, but still have bad government without good people in it. What has happened to us has not been the result of our form of government, but rather the removal of two main firewalls that our Founders put into place to prevent what is now happening to us. These firewalls were put in place to keep the kind of people out of the government who now have the reigns of every aspect of our federal government. It is not likely that those people will vote for anything that would remove them from government nor keep their kind out in the future, so there must be another solution. Before addressing this, we need to consider the firewalls that have been torn down, and consider how they can be restored.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Firewall Number One</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Founders warned that our form of government could only survive in the hands of a religious and moral people. The first firewall that was breeched, and the most important one, was the promotion of the myth of the separation between church and state. This is not in the Constitution and never was even implied the way that this has been defined in recent times. In fact, the opposite is true.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The First Amendment states simply that, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.” The prohibiting of prayer in schools, public places, or at public events, or the displaying of religious statements or symbols is itself unconstitutional because they are prohibiting the free exercise of religion as declared by the First Amendment.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Constitution also declares in the Tenth Amendment that, “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.” Many assume that federal law automatically trumps state laws, but that is not the case. State law trumps federal laws whenever they are in conflict with the exception of those powers specifically given to the federal government by the Constitution.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Because the South used the “states’ rights” as justification for slavery, it is still hard to even use the term, but because of this, the federal government has trampled all over the state’s rights ever since. A pushback is going to come.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Concerning the First Amendment, the states interpreted this to mean that only Congress was prohibited from establishing religion, which is obviously the case. This meant that the states could in fact establish religion, and many did. For example, for a time several states required one to be a Protestant to vote or hold public office. I’m not saying that was right, but in fact it was wrong as even these states came to understand, but it does show how the Founders interpreted the First Amendment with no protest from the federal government for well over a century.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Tyranny of the Minority</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I was watching Fox News when one of the anchors asked a guest if they were afraid that their position on a certain issue might offend someone. That revealed in a single sentence just how crazy political correctness has made us. One person can claim to be offended at something and rob millions of Americans of their most basic Constitutional rights. This has especially been the case with the free exercise of their religion, and Americans have passively let this happen with hardly a whimper. If we do not stand up to this tyranny now, our freedom will be lost forever.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Religious sentiment in America has remained fairly consistent throughout our history. About 90 percent of Americans claim to believe in God, and about 80 percent claim to be Christians. Yet even elementary students can now curse their teachers and get away with it, but if they use the name of Jesus, or Christ, except as a curse, or talk about God, they can be suspended from school. How perverted is that? How unconstitutional is that? Is it not time for Christians to stand up and pushback? If we don’t do this soon, one of the greatest gifts that was given to us by our forefathers and mothers, religious liberty, will be lost forever.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The damage to our country from this is the corresponding meltdown of morality and integrity. Morality and integrity is the glue that holds any people together, and this is the main reason why we are now falling apart.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Firewall Number Two</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The second crisis that the Founders warned that the Republic could not survive was when the people learned that they could vote for themselves the resources of the treasury. Entitlements and waste now has the federal Government spending almost twice as much as it takes in. The fiscal insanity of our present leaders was very much on display by the deal reached to avoid “the fiscal cliff.” The ultimate deal came out raising about forty-one dollars in new taxes for every one dollar of spending cuts according to The Congressional Budget Office. The President called this “a balanced approach.”</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">What this deal truly was is an even greater strangling of the American economy that is already struggling to breathe. Taxes are resources taken straight out of the economy. The mentality of “taxing the rich” more is to take more from those who obviously know how to manage their resources and give it to a government that has become the most incompetent entity on the planet in managing its resources. Managed efficiently, our federal government should only be about one-fifth of its present size, doing five times as much work at least five times as fast. Managed efficiently, we could cut the federal budget by 50 – 70 percent without even touching entitlements.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is not to imply that there does not need to be entitlement reform, but no one on either side of the isle will even mention the 800-pound gorilla in the room—government incompetence, inefficiency, and waste. How did we get to this place? By the federal government trying to do things the Constitution never gave it authority to do, seeking to justify almost everything under the “commerce clause.” It will never be able to do these things well, but will just keep making a mess of them like they have been.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In 2012, the International Monetary Fund released a report on the real debt of the United States that included future obligations, mostly entitlements, and estimated it to be over one hundred trillion dollars. The conclusion was that America could tax all of its citizens one hundred percent of their income and it would not pay for our obligations. Yet, through programs such as Obamacare, we keep dramatically increasing the obligations.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">No other organization could get away with the foolishness of our federal government and survive, and it will not survive it much longer either. The only thing that has kept us from collapsing the entire system already has been our ability to just print more money, but that will catch up with us soon. If we keep going in the direction we are now headed, we will go through, at a minimum, the collapse of our currency. It will take the greatest national leader in our history to get us through that and restore the Republic. Right now there does not seem to be such a leader on the radar.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Even so, we serve a King who can easily fix our biggest messes if we will turn to Him again. It would no doubt be easier if we did not have to go through an ultimate collapse, but even if we do, if we return to Him and call upon Him, He will save us. That is a promise sealed in canon Scripture.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Greatest Victory</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The biggest victories come in the biggest battles. The greatest victories come against the greatest odds. I’m often asked if I plan to leave the country since it is so obviously heading for catastrophe. I have never given that a thought. I will not leave my post. I have been blessed to live in the greatest country during some of its greatest times, and I will not abandon it through what may be its hardest times. If it goes down, I intend to go down with it, and I will still be thankful to have been an American.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As a Christian, the greatest fear that I have is to hear on that great Judgment Day that I was a watchman who did not sound the alarm or a shepherd who abandoned those I was trusted to watch over. To stand there on that day and hear, “Well done good and faithful servant,” is the main goal of my life. I think this should be the primary factor in all of our decisions. We have been given a charge to be salt and light. The greater the corruption and darkness, the more these are needed.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Our Founders laid their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor on the line for the country we were given. Throughout our history many have paid the full measure to preserve our liberty. We are again in need of those who will not just seek ways to preserve their fortunes, but know why they were entrusted with their fortunes and use them for a higher purpose. For those who are more concerned about their money than their country, I say let them go. They would only weaken us in the struggle now before us if they stayed.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Saving Democracy</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We are headed for martial law in America. What will follow will either be tyranny or a restoration of the Republic to the foundations that will not fail if we do not depart from them again. The critical issue will be who the marshal is.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Another critical issue will be whether those who were commissioned as officers, whether in the army or in any force, who took a vow to defend the Constitution from enemies both foreign and domestic, will keep their vow. Many, if not most, have to choose now between what is politically expedient and what is right. Soon many, and maybe all, will likely have to choose between what they vowed or treason against their country. To do the right thing will take extraordinary character, which those who would destroy us have been doing all they could to erode and have been very effective because the good have been silent. We need a lot of help from above to get through what we are now facing.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Our federal government is not just dysfunctional, but everything it does now to try to fix our problems only makes them worse. The train wreck has already begun. At this point, maybe only the first few cars in the front of the train have left the track, but all the rest will get there very soon. We are now too far and going too fast to avoid the derailing. However, the train can be repaired, and we can get it back on the track. We can never give up.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If the right leadership does not move decisively and fast when the rest of the train is derailed, democracy in America will be in jeopardy. If we have the right marshal, then this can be a reset—a Jubilee that restores our republic to the right foundations and sanity.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Could Obama be the right marshal? As he is now I don’t think so. He is the one who hit the throttle to speed up as we entered the train wreck. However, as Christians we always keep in mind that the Lord can change people. The Lord took the radical terrorist, Saul of Tarsus, who was the greatest enemy of the faith and turned him into the great Apostle Paul, the greatest champion of the faith.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To date, Obama has demonstrated the kind of leadership that is the foundation of tyranny, so I would never trust him without a radical change, but with God all things are possible. With a radical transformation like Paul went through, Obama could be in the best position of all to restore the Republic. I am not saying that he would have to become a raging conservative either, but he has aligned himself in many positions that the Lord calls “wickedness” in Scripture, and does at this time fulfill the definition of a wicked leader. Even so, every one of us would be the same without the grace that was given to us.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Obama could be in the position to be the greatest President we’ve ever had or the worst traitor. It is very likely that he will get the chance to be one or the other. Obama is our President, and I accept and try my best to obey the biblical command to pray for our leaders, not prey on them. That being said, if what is being done to us is found to have been intentional by Obama, others in our government, the Federal Reserve, or anyone one else, it is the highest form of treason.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Even if Obama became the greatest President we’ve ever had, what we are facing is beyond human remedy. One congressman admitted on the floor of the house just a few days ago that, “our real debt is eighty-six trillion dollars,” which is a little short of what the IMF said, but at least some are beginning to get honest. That’s a start, but we are in way over our heads, and only God can get us out of the box canyon we’ve entered. That is a good thing. If we look to man, there is no hope. If we look to God, we cannot help but to have more than hope—we can have faith.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Rebuilding the Firewalls</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Technically, America is not a democracy, but a republic. In a democracy, the people get to vote on what to do, but in a republic the people vote for representatives who decide what to do. The American Founding Fathers understood very well that democracy was impractical, so they formed a republic.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Founding Fathers feared the tyranny of the king, or the executive, as well as the tyranny of the mob, or the people unrestrained. They had witnessed firsthand the tyranny of a king, which was the reason for the American Revolution. The Founding Fathers had also witnessed the tyranny of the mob, or the people unrestrained, being made a very clear lesson for all by the French Revolution. They knew they had to establish a form of government that would resist tyranny from both directions—the government and the people.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To accomplish this, they established firewalls in the Constitution that would protect against the excesses from the left or right, the top or bottom, and they did this brilliantly. It has only been since the breech of these firewalls that we began to experience tyranny from both directions, which has landed us where we are now.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The House of Representatives were to be elected every two years in order to be the most direct representation of the people and was intended to be the main firewall to protect against the potential tyranny of the executive.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Senate, which was made up of senators appointed by the state governments, not elected by the people, was intended to be the firewall against the potential tyranny of the people. Senators were not to be accountable to voters so that they could hold back the excessive desires of the people, like voting for themselves the resources of the treasury.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">When the amendment was passed that made senators an elected position, this firewall was breeched and the fiscal slide began. We also had an almost wholesale trampling of the rights of the states by the federal government because the senators were no longer directly accountable to the state governments.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">No government made up of men will ever be perfect. No form of government on earth in this age will be perfect, which is why amendments to the Constitution were allowed. However, not all amendments were good ones, just as not all Supreme Court decisions were good ones. Some amendments need to be repealed, and some Supreme Court decisions need to be reconsidered. The Supreme Court has violated the Constitution as much any President or Congress.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Even so, no government ever devised so wonderfully accounted for our often-flawed human nature, releasing the best in us, while restraining the worst in us, like the U.S. government did in its original form. There was hypocrisy in our leaders, including our Founders, that tolerated things like slavery, but that was not the fault of our form of government. In fact, it was at least partially the result of our form of government that made the correction of this hypocrisy inevitable.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Abraham Lincoln said in 1858, “If we could first know where we are, and whither we are tending, we could then better judge what to do, and how to do it.” You can have an economy without a government, but you cannot have a government without an economy. Presently, there is no leadership or will in the people to make the essential changes to avoid an ultimate collapse of our economic system. Until such leadership and will emerges, we must plan to end up where we are headed, and that is a meltdown of the value of our currency and the crashing of our economy. This will result in martial law, at least for a time. If we get the right marshal, they will get the train back on track. If we get the wrong one, we can still rejoice because the kingdom of God is near. For now, there are three important questions we need to be asking:</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">What will this collapse look like?</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">How can we prepare for it?</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">How can the Republic be restored?</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">These are questions we will address in following Bulletins. We will also address some of the issues raised in this Bulletin with a little more depth.</p>\r\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\r\n<div>\r\n<div><img src=\"http://www.theoakinitiative.org/src/images/pdf-icon.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"PDF Icon\" style=\"width: 43px; height: 43px;\" />Printer Friendly Version <a href=\"http://www.theoakinitiative.org/src/pdfs/sb-1-2013.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"font-size: 13px;\">Special Bulletin 1-2013</a></div>\r\n</div>\r\n</div>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"> </p>','',1,20,0,78,'2013-01-04 02:11:39',62,'Rick Joyner - The Oak Initiative','2013-01-04 02:42:29',62,62,'2013-01-04 02:42:30','2013-01-04 02:11:39','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',4,0,5,'','',0,1485,'robots=\nauthor='),(803,'U.S. Marine’s Scathing Response to Sen.

They must enjoy gridlock, partisanship, incompetence, economic stagnation and avoidance of responsibility. And fewer people voted. As I write, with almost all the votes counted, President Obama has won fewer votes than John McCain won in 2008, and more than ten million off his own 2008 total. (Note: this was written the day after the election. The final results indicate that Romney exceeded McCain’s total by less than one million votes, while Obama received almost four million votes fewer than he did in 2008 – the first time in history that a president won a second term with fewer votes than he scored in his first victory. RSP)</p>\r\n<p>But as we awake from the nightmare, it is important to eschew the facile explanations for the Romney defeat that will prevail among the chattering classes. Romney did not lose because of the effects of Hurricane Sandy that devastated this area, nor did he lose because he ran a poor campaign, nor did he lose because the Republicans could have chosen better candidates, nor did he lose because Obama benefited from a slight uptick in the economy due to the business cycle.</p>\r\n<p>Romney lost because he didn’t get enough votes to win.</p>\r\n<p>That might seem obvious, but not for the obvious reasons. Romney lost because the conservative virtues – the traditional American virtues – of liberty, hard work, free enterprise, private initiative and aspirations to moral greatness – no longer inspire or animate a majority of the electorate. The notion of the <em>“Reagan Democrat”</em> is one cliché that should be permanently retired.</p>\r\n<p>Ronald Reagan himself could not win an election in today’s America.</p>\r\n<p>The simplest reason why Romney lost was because it is impossible to compete against free stuff. Every businessman knows this; that is why the <em>“loss leader”</em> or the giveaway is such a powerful marketing tool. Obama’s America is one in which free stuff is given away: the adults among the 47,000,000 on food stamps clearly recognized for whom they should vote, and so they did, by the tens of millions; those who – courtesy of Obama – receive two full years of unemployment benefits (which, of course, both disincentivizes looking for work and also motivates people to work off the books while collecting their windfall) surely know for whom to vote; so too those who anticipate <em>“free”</em> health care, who expect the government to pay their mortgages, who look for the government to give them jobs. The lure of free stuff is irresistible.</p>\r\n<p>Imagine two restaurants side by side. One sells its customers fine cuisine at a reasonable price, and the other offers a free buffet, all-you-can-eat as long as supplies last. Few – including me – could resist the attraction of the free food. Now imagine that the second restaurant stays in business because the first restaurant is forced to provide it with the food for the free buffet, and we have the current economy, until, at least, the first restaurant decides to go out of business. (Then, the government takes over the provision of free food to its patrons.)</p>\r\n<p>The defining moment of the whole campaign was the revelation (by the amoral Obama team) of the secretly-recorded video in which Romney acknowledged the difficulty of winning an election in which <em>“47% of the people”</em> start off against him because they pay no taxes and just receive money – <em>“free stuff”</em> – from the government. Almost half of the population has no skin in the game – they don’t care about high taxes, promoting business, or creating jobs, nor do they care that the money for their free stuff is being borrowed from their children and from the Chinese. They just want the free stuff that comes their way at someone else’s expense. In the end, that 47% leaves very little margin for error for any Republican, and does not bode well for the future.</p>\r\n<p>It is impossible to imagine a conservative candidate winning against such overwhelming odds. People do vote their pocketbooks. In essence, the people vote for a Congress who will not raise their taxes, and for a President who will give them free stuff, never mind who has to pay for it.</p>\r\n<p>That suggests the second reason why Romney lost: the inescapable conclusion that, as Winston Churchill stated so tartly, <em>“the best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.”</em> Voters – a clear majority – are easily swayed by emotion and raw populism. Said another way, too many people vote with their hearts and not their heads. That is why Obama did not have to produce a second term agenda, or even defend his first-term record. He needed only to portray Mitt Romney as a rapacious capitalist who throws elderly women over a cliff, when he is not just snatching away their cancer medication, while starving the poor and cutting taxes for the rich. Obama could get away with saying that <em>“Romney wants the rich to play by a different set of rules”</em> – without ever defining what those different rules were; with saying that the <em>“rich should pay their fair share”</em> – without ever defining what a <em>“fair share”</em> is; with saying that Romney wants the poor, elderly and sick to <em>“fend for themselves”</em> – without even acknowledging that all these government programs are going bankrupt, their current insolvency only papered over by deficit spending. How could Obama get away with such rants to squealing sign-wavers? See Churchill, above.</p>\r\n<p>During his 1956 presidential campaign, a woman called out to Adlai Stevenson: <em>“Senator, you have the vote of every thinking person!”</em> Stevenson called back: <em>“That’s not enough, madam, we need a majority!”</em> Truer words were never spoken.</p>\r\n<p>Similarly, Obama (or his surrogates) could hint to blacks that a Romney victory would lead them back into chains and proclaim to women that their abortions and birth control would be taken away. He could appeal to Hispanics that Romney would have them all arrested and shipped to Mexico (even if they came from Cuba or Honduras), and unabashedly state that he will not enforce the current immigration laws. He could espouse the furtherance of the incestuous relationship between governments and unions – in which politicians ply the unions with public money, in exchange for which the unions provide the politicians with votes, in exchange for which the politicians provide more money and the unions provide more votes, etc., even though the money is gone. How could he do and say all these things? See Churchill, above.</p>\r\n<p>One might reasonably object that not every Obama supporter could be unintelligent. But they must then rationally explain how the Obama agenda can be paid for, aside from racking up multi-trillion dollar deficits. <em>“Taxing the rich” </em>does not yield even 10% of what is required and does not solve any discernible problem – so what is the answer, i.e., an intelligent answer?</p>\r\n<p>Obama also knows that the electorate has changed – that whites will soon be a minority in America (they’re already a minority in California) and that the new immigrants to the US are primarily from the Third World and do not share the traditional American values that attracted immigrants in the 19th and 20th centuries. It is a different world, and a different America. Obama is part of that different America, knows it, and knows how to tap into it. That is why he won.</p>\r\n<p>Obama also proved again that negative advertising works, invective sells, and harsh personal attacks succeed. That Romney never engaged in such diatribes points to his essential goodness as a person; his <em>“negative ads”</em> were simple facts, never personal abuse – facts about high unemployment, lower take-home pay, a loss of American power and prestige abroad, a lack of leadership, etc. As a politician, though, Romney failed because he did not embrace the devil’s bargain of making unsustainable promises, and by talking as the adult and not the adolescent. Obama has spent the last six years campaigning; even his governance has been focused on payoffs to his favored interest groups. The permanent campaign also won again, to the detriment of American life.</p>\r\n<p>It turned out that it was not possible for Romney and Ryan – people of substance, depth and ideas – to compete with the shallow populism and platitudes of their opponents. Obama mastered the politics of envy – of class warfare – never reaching out to Americans as such but to individual groups, and cobbling together a winning majority from these minority groups. Conservative ideas failed to take root and states that seemed winnable, and amenable to traditional American values, have simply disappeared from the map. If an Obama could not be defeated – with his record and his vision of America, in which free stuff seduces voters – it is hard to envision any change in the future. The road to Hillary Clinton in 2016 and to a European-socialist economy – those very economies that are collapsing today in Europe – is paved.</p>\r\n<p>A second cliché that should be retired is that America is a center-right country. It clearly is not. It is a divided country with peculiar voting patterns, and an appetite for free stuff. Studies will invariably show that Republicans in Congress received more total votes than Democrats in Congress, but that means little. The House of Representatives is not truly representative of the country. That people would vote for a Republican Congressmen or Senator and then Obama for President would tend to reinforce point two above: the empty-headedness of the electorate. Americans revile Congress but love their individual Congressmen. Go figure.</p>\r\n<p>The mass media’s complicity in Obama’s re-election cannot be denied. One example suffices. In 2004, CBS News forged a letter in order to imply that President Bush did not fulfill his Air National Guard service during the Vietnam War, all to impugn Bush and impair his re-election prospects. In 2012, President Obama insisted – famously – during the second debate that he had stated all along that the Arab attack on the US Consulate in Benghazi was <em>“terror”</em> (a lie that Romney fumbled and failed to exploit). Yet, CBS News sat on a tape of an interview with Obama in which Obama specifically avoided and rejected the claim of terrorism – on the day after the attack – clinging to the canard about the video. (This snippet of a <em>“60 Minutes”</em> interview was not revealed - until two days ago!) In effect, CBS News fabricated evidence in order to harm a Republican president, and suppressed evidence in order to help a Democratic president. Simply shameful, as was the media’s disregard of any scandal or story that could have jeopardized the Obama re-election.</p>\r\n<p>One of the more irritating aspects of this campaign was its limited focus, odd in light of the billions of dollars spent. Only a few states were contested, a strategy that Romney adopted, and that clearly failed. The Democrat begins any race with a substantial advantage. The liberal states – like the bankrupt California and Illinois – and other states with large concentrations of minority voters as well as an extensive welfare apparatus, like New York, New Jersey and others – give any Democratic candidate an almost insurmountable edge in electoral votes. In New Jersey, for example, it literally does not pay for a conservative to vote. It is not worth the fuel expended driving to the polls. As some economists have pointed generally, and it resonates here even more, the odds are greater that a voter will be killed in a traffic accident on his way to the polls than that his vote will make a difference in the election. It is an irrational act. That most states are uncompetitive means that people are not amenable to new ideas, or new thinking, or even having an open mind. If that does not change, and it is hard to see how it can change, then the die is cast. America is not what it was, and will never be again.</p>\r\n<p>For Jews, mostly assimilated anyway and staunch Democrats, the results demonstrate again that liberalism is their Torah. Almost 70% voted for a president widely perceived by Israelis and most committed Jews as hostile to Israel. They voted to secure</p>\r\n<p>Obama’s future at America’s expense and at Israel’s expense – in effect, preferring Obama to Netanyahu by a wide margin. A dangerous time is ahead. Under present circumstances, it is inconceivable that the US will take any aggressive action against Iran and will more likely thwart any Israeli initiative. That Obama’s top aide Valerie Jarrett (i.e., Iranian-born Valerie Jarrett) spent last week in Teheran is not a good sign. The US will preach the importance of negotiations up until the production of the first Iranian nuclear weapon – and then state that the world must learn to live with this new reality. As Obama has committed himself to abolishing America’s nuclear arsenal, it is more likely that that unfortunate circumstance will occur than that he will succeed in obstructing Iran’s plans.</p>\r\n<p>Obama’s victory could weaken Netanyahu’s re-election prospects, because Israelis live with an unreasonable – and somewhat pathetic – fear of American opinion and realize that Obama despises Netanyahu. A Likud defeat – or a diminution of its margin of victory – is more probable now than yesterday. That would not be the worst thing. Netanyahu, in fact, has never distinguished himself by having a strong political or moral backbone, and would be the first to cave to the American pressure to surrender more territory to the enemy and acquiesce to a second (or third, if you count Jordan) Palestinian state. A new US Secretary of State named John Kerry, for example (he of the Jewish father) would not augur well. Netanyahu remains the best of markedly poor alternatives. Thus, the likeliest outcome of the upcoming Israeli elections is a center-left government that will force itself to make more concessions and weaken Israel – an Oslo III.</p>\r\n<p>But this election should be a wake-up call to Jews. There is no permanent empire, nor is there is an enduring haven for Jews anywhere in the exile. The most powerful empires in history all crumbled – from the Greeks and the Romans to the British and the Soviets. None of the collapses were easily foreseen, and yet they were predictable in retrospect.</p>\r\n<p>The American empire began to decline in 2007, and the deterioration has been exacerbated in the last five years. This election only hastens that decline. Society is permeated with sloth, greed, envy and materialistic excess. It has lost its moorings and its moral foundations. The takers outnumber the givers, and that will only increase in years to come. Across the world, America under Bush was feared but not respected. Under Obama, America is neither feared nor respected. Radical Islam has had a banner four years under Obama, and its prospects for future growth look excellent. The <em>“Occupy”</em> riots across this country in the last two years were mere dress rehearsals for what lies ahead – years of unrest sparked by the increasing discontent of the unsuccessful who want to seize the fruits and the bounty of the successful, and do not appreciate the slow pace of redistribution.</p>\r\n<p>Two bright sides: Notwithstanding the election results, I arose this morning, went to shul, davened and learned Torah afterwards. That is our reality, and that trumps all other events. Our relationship with G-d matters more than our relationship with any politician, R or D. And, notwithstanding the problems in Israel, it is time for Jews to go home, to Israel. We have about a decade, perhaps 15 years, to leave with dignity and without stress.</p>\r\n<p>Thinking that it will always be because it always was has been a repetitive and deadly Jewish mistake. America was always the land from which <em>“positive”</em> aliya came – Jews leaving on their own, and not fleeing a dire situation. But that can also change. The increased aliya in the last few years is partly attributable to young people fleeing the high cost of Jewish living in America. Those costs will only increase in the coming years. We should draw the appropriate conclusions.</p>\r\n<p>If this election proves one thing, it is that the Old America is gone. And, sad for the world, it is not coming back.</p>\r\n<p> <img src=\"images/stories/OAKI-logo.png\" border=\"0\" alt=\"The Oak Initiative\" align=\"left\" /><a href=\"http://www.theoakinitiative.org/oak-leaf-35\">READ ON THE OAK INITIATIVE &gt;&gt;&gt;</a></p>','',1,20,0,78,'2013-01-15 12:25:57',62,'Rabbi Steven Pruzansky','2013-01-15 12:32:33',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2013-01-15 12:25:57','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',2,0,3,'','',0,1304,'robots=\nauthor='),(805,'2013 The Presidential Inaugural Prayer Breakfast by Jonathan Cahn ','2013-the-presidential-inaugural-prayer-breakfast-by-jonathan-cahn-','','<p>{source}<span style=\"font-family: courier new, courier, monospace;\"><br />&lt;iframe width=\"420\" height=\"315\" src=\"<a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/1mhRBOKb_6I\">https://www.youtube.com/embed/1mhRBOKb_6I</a>\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;<br /></span>{/source}</p>','',1,20,0,78,'2013-01-29 19:46:45',62,'Submitted by Carol Bassett','2015-03-15 02:30:46',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2013-01-29 19:46:45','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',3,0,2,'','',0,869,'robots=\nauthor='),(806,'American Way: Hillary must explain why a second Clinton presidency would be good for America','american-way-hillary-must-explain-why-a-second-clinton-presidency-would-be-good-for-america','','<p><img src=\"images/stories/the_telegraph_logo.png\" border=\"0\" alt=\"The Telegraph\" width=\"200\" /></p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Americans know that Hillary Clinton wants to be their president, but beyond fulfillment of a personal ambition, she has yet to explain why she wants to be. </span></p>\r\n<div>\r\n<p>By Peter Foster, Washington</p>\r\n</div>\r\n<p>3:51PM BST 18 Oct 2014</p>\r\n<p><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><a href=\"http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/us-politics/11171582/American-Way-Hillary-Clinton-must-explain-bid-for-US-presidency.html\" target=\"_blank\"><strong><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\">READ</span></strong></a></span> </p>','',1,1,0,1,'2014-10-20 03:35:14',62,'Drudge','2014-10-21 13:06:15',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2014-10-20 03:35:14','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',5,0,14,'','',0,465,'robots=\nauthor='),(807,'The absurd claim that only Republicans are to blame for cuts to Ebola research','the-absurd-claim-that-only-republicans-are-to-blame-for-cuts-to-ebola-research','','<div><img src=\"images/stories/washington-post-logo-500x116.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Washington Post\" width=\"250\" height=\"45\" align=\"left\" /></div>\r\n<p> </p>\r\n<div><a href=\"http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/fact-checker\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Fact Checker</span></span></span></strong></a></div>\r\n<h1>\r\n<div><span style=\"font-size: small;\">By <a href=\"http://www.washingtonpost.com/people/glenn-kessler\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\">Glenn Kessler</span></a> October 15 <br /></span></div>\r\n</h1>','',1,1,0,1,'2014-10-20 03:47:39',62,'Drudge','2014-10-21 13:05:41',62,0,'0000-00-00 00:00:00','2014-10-20 03:47:39','0000-00-00 00:00:00','','','show_title=\nlink_titles=\nshow_intro=\nshow_section=\nlink_section=\nshow_category=\nlink_category=\nshow_vote=\nshow_author=\nshow_create_date=\nshow_modify_date=\nshow_pdf_icon=\nshow_print_icon=\nshow_email_icon=\nlanguage=\nkeyref=\nreadmore=',5,0,13,'','',0,321,'robots=\nauthor='),(808,'Is CDC Hiding Enterovirus Link To Illegal Alien Kids?
