High school students strike back at ACLU and political correctness

Thankfully in America, there are still young Americans who are not afraid to strike back at the left-wing's political correctness movement. And a great example of this occurred last Saturday when several hundred graduating high school seniors stood in protest during their graduation ceremony at Pace High School in Santa Rosa County, Florida because the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) had filed a lawsuit against the high school administration claiming the principal and some teachers supported religion.

What these courageous hundreds of graduating high school seniors did was to recite the Lord's Prayer during their graduation ceremony. Some of the students carried the protest further by painting a cross on the top of their graduation caps. The ACLU and judges legislating from the bench should not be allowed to undermine religious freedom and the First Amendment rights of Christians in America. Unfortunately, the school district had agreed to a consent decree which prohibited school district employees from being involved in religious activities or offering prayers at school functions...

Fairness Doctrine by another method

Acting Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairman and former Democrat appointee to the FCC, Michael Copps -- who has, in the past, been supportive of tough broadcaster fines for violation of indecency laws -- recently came out and stated that the so-called "Fairness Doctrine" is long gone and "it's not coming back".

As columnist Brent Bozell has pointed out to the acting FCC chairman and the other members of the FCC in the past, there are some very prominent power-brokers in Washington D.C. who have actually called for the return of this unconstitutional, anti-First Amendment policy. These include the Speaker of the House of Representatives - Nancy Pelosi, the House Majority Leader - Steny Hoyer, former President - Bill Clinton, Senate Majority Leader - Harry Reid, and a host of other left-wing Democrats...

Congressman Lamborn seeks to protect children by stopping "morning-after" pill distribution

It is outrageous that school-based health clinics are receiving American tax dollars to distribute the "morning-after pill" or as the abortion industry calls them: "emergency contraception." Colorado Republican Congressman Doug Lanborn has introduced a bill -- which has 40 original co-sponsors -- called the "Schoolchildren's Health Protection Act."

What is equally outrageous is the fact that before an aspirin can be given to schoolchildren, permission from their parents or guardians must be obtained. Yet, the "morning-after pill" -- what some call the "abortion pill" -- can be given to children without their parents knowing. These dangerous pills can induce chemical abortions... (Read More)

Save Talk Radio

The liberals have solidified control over Congress and won the White House - and now they're threatening to use their new political muscle to shut down talk radio as we know it!

They want to pass what is known as the "Fairness Doctrine", which is nothing more than a way for the federal government to demand that all broadcasters must give "equal time" to all points of view.

Their real target is talk radio - the one place in all of media where conservatives outnumber liberals. The place where many conservatives go to avoid the liberal bias in the mainstream media and find out what liberals are really up to.

And liberals want to destroy it... (Read More)

Republican opportunities in the Sotomayor nomination

When it comes to the confirmation process for Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor, Republicans have an opportunity to do something that would benefit both themselves and the nation. That is, they should use the process as a chance to hold forth on the meaning of the Constitution and the proper role of the judiciary in our political system and society.

Three main areas are ripe with opportunity for Republicans if they have the nerve to play hardball.

First, the notion that "empathy" should play any role in American justice... (Read More)

American Values Survey

Given the changes in Washington, it is urgent that political leaders understand that America's Christian voters expect strong moral leadership in government. Leadership that respects and reflects our values - not attacks them at every opportunity.

That's why we're conducting a massive survey of America's politically active Christians - so we can show the politicians and the media exactly where we stand.

We're surveying hundreds of thousands of conservative Christians nationwide, and we want to make sure your voice is included... (Read More)
