Perhaps you’ve heard about how the leftists are planning on using reconciliation to pass the healthcare legislation – and when we point out that it is an underhanded tactic, they try to justify themselves by pointing out that Republicans used the procedure when they were in power. Now folks, remember all that I’ve said – leftists are liars, they’re stupid, they’re evil. They really are. When a conservative does any of these things they’re only acting like a liberal. That’s it. Anyway, the would-be overthrowers of the American way (the leftists) are once again proven to be lying imbeciles when one considers that Republicans used it to pass measures that were overwhelmingly desired by the American populace (like tax cuts for everyone) while the typically anti-American leftists wanted Americans to pay more. Furthermore, tax cut type measures are consistent with the American way. Now, in our present day, the socialists want to rework approximately 20% of the American economy, fundamentally changing how life (and death) occurs in this Nation… and they want to do so with legislation overwhelmingly opposed by the populace. See the difference? If you can’t, you’re probably a liberal.

But to add insult to injury, the cowardly anti-American leftists are posed to “deem and pass” this healthcare legislation – in otherwords, “consider” it passed without actually voting on it! They trounce the will of the People, try to rework the framework of the American way of life, support everything and everyone who is opposed to goodness and normalcy, despise the Constitution, and dare to act indignant when us good Americans use rhetoric reserved for times when a People are underthe thumb of a despotic ruler? They’re cowards, they’re evil, their liars.

Good Readers -you simply must remember, with the Left there is no mercy, there is no kindness, there is no compassion. They use that language to trick you into putting them in power so that once IN power they can put systems and rules in place to disregard your will.

People - you must speak up. I know, I know, part of being conservative is being, well, conservative. And that means we just work hard and go home and mind our own business. But while you do nothing, they’re changing everything. As Reagan once said, “The people with the most to lose will do the least to prevent it.” Let’s prove the Gipper wrong, shall we! Let your voice be heard!

Events like this put into perspective our work in churches. Are we making disciples? We do not face similar threats to our physical harm in the U.S. but we do face a spiritual enemy who is eager to keep us flabby in the faith. Pray that our faith will be strengthened, too.

From the piece:

Funny. I have never read an AP piece about how others should cry for Christians who are subjected to-and therefore disenfranchised by-Darwin’s theory of evolution in public school. The piece does not bother to wonder why 1.5 million kids are being home-schooled in the first place. Must not be relevant that many, if not most, of the Christians home-schooling their children are doing so precisely because of the Darwinist slant in public education. Then there is the fact that many public schools just stink like three day old fish.

It ends with a story about a home-schooled kid who is not afraid to embark on a career in marine biology in spite of the field’s evolutionary bent. Mom even gets in an elbow at public school:

Nice shot, mom.

Some interesting articles about HCR:

• Politico explains that BO has not done that many events on health care since August. It just feels like it.
• The most perplexing question in my mind about HCR is why Democrats have this laser focus on a policy Americans clearly do not desire. They really must think the public is stupid. Gary Andres explains why the Dems think they have to pass it no matter the consequences.
• Conservative last hope lies in the hands of Democrats, too. The so-called “Blue Dogs” led by Rep. Bart Stupak are banding together to oppose Obamacare without language banning federal funding of abortion. Let’s hope they hold together. The 11 votes Stupak has counted might just be enough to kill this thing.
• Did Obama try to buy another vote by using the federal bench?

The bottom line: The Leftists don’t really care about medical care. They care about control over your life.

Listen to Reagan’s words… especially you people on the Left!

Listen HERE.

Anyway, this “jobs”bill is the least of our worries. The way this administration throws around trillion dollar bills, I’ll gladly settle for a mere $15 billion.

What should bother us is the fact that Obama is now proposing his own health care bill. Would you be surprised if I told you the bill would raise taxes by over $600 billion? Didn’t think so.

You may have noticed I am not blogging as much the last few weeks. Never fear! There is a great reason for that. I’m working on several posts that will establish a foundation for some of our conversation here about faith and politics. For instance, it’s obvious that some of us hold widely variant views of the world. So, I plan to define some of the perspectives and elaborate on mine especially on some foundational issues like the value and place of Scripture in our lives. So stay tuned. It will be worth waiting for.

In the meantime, check out these articles:

• The New York Times (of all places) has an excellent opinion piece today that wonders “Are There Secular Reasons?” If you have ever wondered why faith and reason seem to be opposites, read this article. When you finish it, you will understand that reason relies on faith in many ways including by “smuggling” in moral concepts. Good read.
• I found this article called “The Progressive Fallacy on Free Speech” in The Week last week. Will Wilkinson does a great job explaining the liberal view of the Citizens United decision by the Supreme Court and why they are so outraged by it. If for nothing else, the article is worth the read to get a clear idea of the opposing view. Wilkinson also gives the best explanation I’ve ever read about why that view is just plain wrong.

Happy reading!

Here’s the bottom line: President Obama didn’t call for the abolishment of the Gaming industry. He advised people to not blow their money when they’re saving for their future. This was sound advice on many levels (think of the people who would be empowered if instead of investing in the casinos, they invested in themselves!) but it is particularly prudent advice because the people most likely to blow their money at casinos are precisely those who do so to the detriment of their financial future. And while the former mob-lawyer Mayor wants to act indignant, I say so be it.

So, I’ll give credit where I think credit is due: Good advice to the common man, Mr. President!

Excellent question, Hugh. Click the link to read Hugh Hewitt’s take on Evan Bayh’s decision not to run or rather his disingenous reason not to run. Bayh had many opportunities to work across the aisle but didn’t. Actions speak louder than words.
