Educators Face Jail for Praying

Some judges in America -- whether pressured by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) or not -- just lack commonsense. Such is the case with a federal judge, U.S. District Court Judge Margaret C. Rodgers, who was actually appointed by a Republican president

The case involves a northern Florida school principal and an athletic director who are facing criminal charges and up to six months in jail over their offer of a mealtime prayer according in the "The Washington Times" (August 14, 2009.) Pace High School Principal Frank Lay and the school athletic director, Robert Freeman, who go on trial on September 17th of course have the support of the local community...  (Read More)

I'm From the Government, and I'm Here to Help

Despite all the ruckus concerning town-halls lately, most of which is the ruckus made by liberals upset that conservatives are attending and expressing their opposition to Obamacare, we have been treated to some important, if accidental, moments of honesty and clarity.

For example, while conducting a recent town-hall meeting, Missouri Democrat Senator Claire McCaskill attempted to calm constituents upset over the proposed "reform" by asking "Don't you trust me?" The resounding "no's" reverberated throughout the room, along with many boos, which provides us with our moment of honesty.

So why don't voters trust the government or its representatives to "fix" the problem? Partially because they've gotten a better look at the proposed "solution" over the past few months, and the closer they look, the less they like what they see... (Read More)

Obama's End-of-Life Health Care Boards

Recently, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin received huge doses of criticism from left-wingers regarding her comments that Obama's "death boards" were "evil" and would make life and death decisions about individuals such as her son Trig, who has Down's syndrome. Even Rockefeller Republicans such as Fox News' anchor, Neil Cavuto, took her to task on his show yesterday by badgering a physician who was also concerned about such end-of-life boards. Indeed, Cavuto almost succeeded in getting her to condemn Governor Palin's remarks.

The problem for these Palin critics is that they have not read the statements of the key health care experts in the Obama administration who have said some truly frightful things or they have ignored such statements. Obama, himself, told an audience to look at the people he surrounds himself with if they want to determine how he will govern or words to that effect... (Read More)

Capitol Hill Update: Obama Dissing 1,700 Minority and Poor Children in D.C.

So much for freedom of choice in America. The president of the party which is rabidly pro-choice on abortion is not pro-choice when it comes to freedom of choice in education for some 1,700 black, poor and other minority children in Washington D.C. who could be eligible for the D.C. Opportunity Scholarship Program.

The program begun by President George W. Bush's administration in 2004 allowed up to 1,700 children to receive up to $7,500 to attend a non-public school just as Barack Obama's children attend a private school in Washington D.C. According to Wednesday's "The Washington Times," only children whose families have an annual income at or below 185% of the federal poverty guidelines may qualify for the vouchers.

The Democrats do not care what their most loyal supporters -- black Americans, 95% of whom voted for Obama last year -- think about their abolishing the scholarship program because their most militant left-wing fringe group, i.e. the teachers' unions, have demanded that the D.C. Opportunity Scholarship Program be eliminated... (Read More)
