What Freedom of Speech?

The Religion Police
The new threat to freedom of expression

On Friday, the UN Human Rights Council approved a resolution that calls on states to limit criticism of religions - specifically Islam. This is the tenth time such a resolution has passed at the UN's primary human rights body. Pakistan, on behalf of the Organization of the Islamic Conference, began introducing similar resolutions in 1999 arguing that Islam - the only religion specifically cited in the text - must be shielded from unfair associations with terrorism and human rights abuses.

The resolutions contain some very appealing language, steeped in standard human rights values such as dialogue, harmony, and tolerance - all good things.

But don't be fooled; the resolutions only give clever lip service to these values. In reality they are calling for laws and actions that prohibit dialogue by declaring certain topics off limits for discussion, leading to intolerance of any view that some Muslims may find offensive. For instance, criticizing the practice of polygamy or the greater weight given to the testimony of men over women in sharia law would be forbidden. Such laws that prohibit blasphemy, defamation, or the defiling of Islam already exist in many of the countries that support the defamation of religions resolutions. SOURCE...

Video Snoops Are Watching You!

A FURIOUS wife has called in divorce lawyers after spotting her husband’s car parked outside another woman’s house -- on Google.

She saw the Range Rover while using the internet giant’s new Street View service to snoop on a female friend’s home.

The hubby had claimed he was away on business, but his missus recognised his motor immediately because of its blinged-up hubcaps.

The love cheat is not the only husband trapped by Google’s controversial new 360-degree photo search which covers 25 cities and towns throughout the country.

Street View has triggered a stream of complaints from people caught on camera since its launch on March 20. SOURCE...

"White People with Blue Eyes"


Brazilian President Blames 'White People with Blue Eyes' for Economic Crisis
The President of Brazil, while speaking at a joint press conference with British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, took a curiously-phrased swipe at white folks:

Speaking in Brasília at a joint press conference with Gordon Brown, the UK prime minister, Mr Lula da Silva told reporters: "This crisis was caused by the irrational behaviour of white people with blue eyes, who before the crisis appeared to know everything and now demonstrate that they know nothing."

He added: "I do not know any black or indigenous bankers so I can only say [it is wrong] that this part of mankind which is victimised more than any other should pay for the crisis." SOURCE...

Two National Governments

"The idea prevails with some, indeed it has expression in arguments at the bar, that we have in this country substantially two national governments; one to be maintained under the Constitution, with all its restrictions; the other to be maintained by Congress outside and independently of that instrument, by exercising such powers as other nations of the earth are accustomed to... I take leave to say that, if the principles thus announced should ever receive the sanction of a majority of this court, a radical and mischievous change in our system will result. We will, in that event, pass from the era of constitutional liberty guarded and protected by a written constitution into an era of legislative absolutism... It will be an evil day for American Liberty if the theory of a government outside the Supreme Law of the Land finds lodgment in our Constitutional Jurisprudence. No higher duty rests upon this court than to exert its full authority to prevent all violation of the principles of the Constitution." -

Facsist Martial Law?

The United States of America and its citizenry has been assessed, warned, plotted against, and sold out by internationalists in government, business, and the banking industry. Its workforce has been decimated, its standard of living shredded and its working people made financial slaves through unjust taxation, socialist government practices, rules and regulations at all levels in society that would make any communist dictator grin with envy.

Our role as partners in governmental affairs has been reduced to a whisper that is not heard by any elected official anywhere -- with very, very few exceptions. Our representative government has become 535 regional dictators who live a life of luxury, self-importance and as arrogant master over the populace. The congress of the United States has carefully exempted itself from virtually all repressive laws they choose not to adhere to and have given themselves retirement pensions, health care and other perks, the rest of us can only dream of. They have become the Duma (Soviet Parliament) types who exemplify nothing other than crass selfishness at the expense of every American working citizen. CONTINUED...

The G20 Summit: Saving Globalisation... Again?
The World Today, Volume 65, Number 4

The world will be watching when global leaders meet in London on April 2. A decade ago, massive anti-globalisation protests spurred finance ministers, from the same twenty countries as those meeting in London, to declare that they would make globalisation more inclusive. Ten years later, what looks inclusive are the harsh costs of the financial crisis with unemployment, foreclosures and a sharp economic slowdown spreading across the world. The public is angry and afraid. Angry that governments let global finance veer hopelessly out of control. Afraid that governments are now impotent to deal with the consequences. SOURCE...

White House Special Handbook

White House Special Handbook, or How to Rule the World in the 21st Century

Here is the book the President of the United States turns to the first day he steps through the door to the Oval Office and closes only as he walks out for the last time. In fact, the strategies and mindset recommended in these pages are essential tools for capturing the Presidency, much less wielding it.

The author swears it s not a parody - and indeed, if it is, then life imitates art, for the international scene today is either a madhouse or the product of extraordinarily cynical techniques such as these, applied with cold cunning, by our nation s leaders. Which is it? Perhaps the next election will tell.
This is a book on practical political science and espionage. A rational, results-based handbook, it is destined to be a secret favorite of politicians, special services agents, CEOs and corporate boards for the next hundred years.

Inside the Revolution takes you inside the winner-take-all battle for the hearts, minds, and souls of the people of the Middle East. It includes never-before-seen profiles of the Radicals, the Reformers and the Revivalists. It explains the implications of each movement and the importance of each leader - not only through the lenses of politics and economics but through the third lens of Scripture as well. Today, wars and revolutions define the modern Middle East, and many believe the worst is yet to come.

* How real and serious is the threat of Radical Islam to American national security eight years after 9/11?
* Are there any Muslim leaders who oppose the violence of the Radicals -- and is there any hope that such leaders will come to power in key countries in the Middle East?
* What is God doing in the Middle East -- and is there any hope that Muslims will find faith in Jesus Christ?
* How can we as Christians help strengthen our brothers and sisters who love Jesus in the Muslim world, and how can we reach out to Muslims here at home?

The ACLU - Marxist?

Who is the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU)?

American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU)

AMERICAN CIVIL LIBERTIES UNION - ORGANIZATIONAL HISTORY

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) began its existence in November 1915, when a group of social workers, reform advocates, and academics organized a group called the American Union Against Militarism (AUAM) in response to the slide of the United States towards the European war.

In April of 1917, the National Committee of the AUAM was joined by a young sociologist from Massachusetts named Roger Baldwin. Baldwin organized a civil liberties bureau of the organization to defend the rights of socialists, pacifists, and other wartime dissidents who were coming under legal fire from the increasingly reactionary and authoritarian administration of Woodrow Wilson, fronted by his Attorney General, A. Mitchell Palmer.

The National Civil LIberties Bureau became a separate organization from the AUAM on October 1, 1917.

On January 20, 1920, the National Civil Liberties Bureau changed its name to the American Civil Liberties Bureau, the change intended to signal an expanded mission beyond the support of conscientious and political objectors to American military intervention in Europe. SOURCE... Marxist Web Site

The ACLU vs. America: Exposing the Agenda to Redefine Moral Values

As a result of the work of the American Civil Liberties Union and their war on America, we now live in a country where the church has been progressively silenced, parental authority has been undermined, children are less safe, and human life continues to be cheapened-both at birth and death. While the ACLU and its allies in the media have positioned themselves as the great defenders of freedom, they are in reality eliminating the freedoms of millions of Americans. Sadly, most Americans are unaware of the extreme positions of the ACLU.

The Credo of a Few


Like an EAGLE I choose to soar to the highest heights for a view unknown by the vast majority of others. I do not choose to be a common person. It is my right to be uncommon. I seek opportunity, not security. I do not wish to be a kept citizen, humbled and dulled by having the state look after me. I want to take the calculated risk; to dream and to build, to fail and to succeed. I refuse to barter incentive for a dole; I prefer the challenges of life to the guaranteed existence; the thrill of fulfillment to the stale calm of Utopia. I will not trade my freedom for beneficence nor my dignity for a handout. I will never cower before any master nor bend to any threat. It is my heritage to stand erect, proud and unafraid; to think and act for myself, enjoy the benefit of my creations and to face the world boldly and say: This, with God's help, I have done!

Provisions of "Share Our Wealth"

Every Man A King: The Autobiography Of Huey P. Long

"Share Our Wealth (Text) and "Barbecue Speech" (Video)

The key planks of the Share Our Wealth platform.

Long proposed a new progressive tax code designed to limit the size of personal fortunes. The new tax code would tax the first million dollars of wealth at zero. The second million dollars of wealth would be taxed at 1%. The third million at 2%; the fourth million at 4%; the fifth million at 8%; the sixth million at 16%; the seventh million at 32%; the eighth million at 64%; and the remainder at 100%. Income tax rates would be at 100% for all incomes over $1 million.

The resulting funds would be used to guarantee every family a basic household grant of $5,000 and a minimum annual income of $2,000-3,000 (or one-third the average family income). Long supplemented his plan with proposals for free primary and college education, old-age pensions, veterans' benefits, federal assistance to farmers, public works projects, and limiting the work week to thirty hours.

CONGRESS DISSOLVED? The PARTY Rules

Because the American voting public(?) has given, and is allowing a select few PARTY members the power to govern and control this nation, and without strong opposition from a significant portion of the population, it is therefore appropriate to declare Congressional representatives not in the "PARTY" as irrelevant, and to dissolve and re-align the leadership favorable to the PARTY and the welfare of its' members.

The PARTY now communicates directly with the people through the internet and the special interest groups geared specifically to shape and promote its' agenda and the needs of the people.

The PARTY is now holding a new kind of online town hall where it will answer the [selected] questions you submitted and voted on for the President.

Son of a Preacher Man

Rich is more than the son of a preacher, he's also the son of a prophet. In such times of economic distress, Rich's prophetic voice is most audible in the album's lead single "Shutting Detroit Down." Over a melodious driving tune that somehow soothes the grimness of his incendiary indictment of corporate greed in Middle America, Rich sings, "Because in the real world they're/Shutting Detroit down/While the boss man takes his/Bonus pay and jets on outta town."

Women God and the Golden Age

Man [has] become a lost and ruined creature. The golden age [has] passed away.

We must not lose sight of the fact that human society was first organized and held together by means of the gens (family), at the head of which was a woman. The several members of this organization were but parts of one body cemented together by the pure principle of maternity, the chief duty of these members being to defend and protect each other if needs be with their life blood. The fact has been observed, in an earlier work, that only through the gens (family) was the organization of society possible. Without it mankind could have accomplished nothing toward its own advancement.

Thus, throughout the earlier ages of human existence, at a time when mankind lived nearer to Nature and before individual wealth and the stimulation of evil passions had engendered superstition, selfishness, and distrust, the maternal element constituted not only the binding and preserving principle in human society, but, together with the power to bring forth, constituted also the god-idea, which idea, as has already been observed, at a certain stage in the history of the race was portrayed by a female figure with a child in her arms.

Although at certain stages in the history of the human race the evils, which as a result of the supremacy of the ruder elements developed in mankind had befallen the race were lamented and bewailed, they could not be suppressed. Man had become a lost and ruined creature. The golden age had passed away.

Liberty and Tyranny: A Conservative Manifesto

In the face of the modern liberal assault on Constitution-based values, an attack that has steadily snowballed since President Roosevelt's New Deal of the 1930s and resulted in a federal government that is a massive, unaccountable conglomerate, the time for re-enforcing the intellectual and practical case for conservatism is now. Conservative beliefs in individual freedoms do in the end stand for liberty for all Americans, while liberal dictates lead to the breakdown of civilized society -- in short, tyranny.

Who Killed the Constitution?


Who Killed the Constitution?: The Fate of American Liberty from World War I to George W. Bush
"Let no more be heard of confidence in man, but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the Constitution." - Thomas Jefferson

The United States Constitution -- the bedrock of our country, the foundation of our federal republic -- is . . . dead.

You won’t hear that from the politicians who endlessly pay lip service to the Constitution. It’s the dirty little secret exposed in this provocative new book. The fact is that government officials - Democrats and Republicans, presidents, judges, and congresses alike -- long ago rejected the idea that the Constitution possesses a fixed meaning limiting the U.S. government’s power.

In case you’ve forgotten, this idea was not a minor aspect of the Constitution; it was the document’s very purpose.

Why We Must Defeat Radical Islam

They Must Be Stopped: Why We Must Defeat Radical Islam and How We Can Do It

They Must Be Stopped is New York Times bestselling author Brigitte Gabriel’s warning to the world: We can no longer ignore the growth of radical Islam--we must act soon, and powerfully. Gabriel challenges our western and politically-correct notions about Islam, demonstrating why radical Islam is so deadly and how we can halt its progress.

Brigitte Gabriel speaks her mind:
I founded ACT! for America because Islamic militants have declared war on America. I know what this means. For years, I witnessed first-hand how brutally jihadists treat non-Muslims.

We are in for the fight of our lives and we must ACT! - before it's too late.

*Fundamentalist Islam is a religion rooted in 7th century teachings that are fundamentally opposed to democracy and equality.

*Radical Islamists are utterly contemptuous of all "infidels" (non-Muslims) and regard them as enemies worthy of death.

*Madrassas in America are increasing in number, and they are just one part of a growing radical Islamic army on US soil.

*Radical Islam exploits the US legal system and America’s protection of religion to spread its hatred for western values.

*America must organize a unified voice that says "enough" to political correctness, and demands that government officials and elected representatives do whatever is necessary to protect us.

Brigitte Gabriel has fearlessly faced down critics, death threats, and political correctness, and is one of the most sought after terrorism experts in the world. They Must Be Stopped is her clarion call to action. Gabriel thoroughly addresses the historical and religious basis of radical Islam, its frightening encroachment into societies around the world, and its abuses of democracy in the name of religion.

Alex Jones is modeling what every American citizen should be - refusing to bow down to these evil power mongers and neo-con "chickenhawks."

The End of Prosperity: How Higher Taxes Will Doom the Economy--If We Let It Happen

Customer Review:
Quite simply, I learned (and re-learned) more about economics and U.S. economic history from reading this book than I did in 4 years of college followed by a 25+ year business career which now includes being CEO of my own tax consulting company for the past 9 years.

Anyone who has ever built a business or had to work for anything will appreciate this book and how straight forward it presents what many politicians try to make very complex. Most all of us will work more productively if given the INCENTIVE to do so. We really DO want to be better off and live a higher quality of life while helping those less fortunate improve their situation as well. That,however is hard to do when more and more of the economic policies being put into play kill off our incentive and ability to start businesses, hire employees, buy assets etc. The excessive taxes coupled with restrictive government policies and crushing bailout debt being put into play make it difficult if not impossible to expand.

This book brings to mind an old but very intelligent saying from 1931 by Dr. Adrian Rogers, " You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."

Political risk is unpredictable, but it is easier to analyze and manage than most people think.

"I think it was pandering to the crowd but also insulting to American citizens who consider themselves to be patriotic, who obey the rule of law," said Oltman, who shot a video of the rally.

Common Sense and the Death of ...

Common Sense

In its time over 600,000 copies of Common Sense were circulated through the Colonies. Not one to be "politically correct" Thomas Paine's little book was key to starting a revolution we know today as the United States of America.

Quotes from within these pages:

"Of more worth is one honest man to society and in the sight of God, than all the crowned ruffians that ever lived."

"A long habit of not thinking a thing WRONG, gives it a superficial appearance of being RIGHT"

"The cause of America is in a great measure the cause of all mankind."

"The present time, likewise, is that peculiar time, which never happens to a nation but once . . . the time of forming itself into a government. Most nations have let slip the opportunity, and by that means have been compelled to receive laws from their conquerors."

The Death of Common Sense: How Law is Suffocating America

Distressing, disturbing, devastatingly detailed--this stunning examination of how modern laws are diminishing America exposes the drawbacks of rule-bound government, tells why nothing gets done, reveals the phony pretensions of law, and shows why well-intentioned laws have actually devalued rights. In short, The Death of Common Sense demonstrates how the buck never stops and how well-meaning laws are creating a nation of enemies.

"Government," Mr. Howard writes, "accomplishes virtually nothing of what it sets out to do. It can barely fire an employee. . ."

What would happen if women ruled the world?

Blending memoir, social history, and a call to action, Dee Dee Myers challenges us to imagine a not-too-distant future in which increasing numbers of women reach the top ranks of politics, business, science, and academia.

Web of Debt: The Shocking Truth About Our Money System and How We Can Break Free

EXPLODING THE MYTHS ABOUT MONEY Our money system is not what we have been led to believe. The creation of money has been "privatized," or taken over by a private money cartel. Except for coins, all of our money is now created as loans advanced by private banking institutions -- including the private Federal Reserve. Banks create the principal but not the interest to service their loans. To find the interest, new loans must continually be taken out, expanding the money supply, inflating prices -- and robbing you of the value of your money.

How CEO's and Politicians Looted the ...

The Best Way to Rob a Bank Is to Own One: How Corporate Executives and Politicians Looted the S&l Industry

The catastrophic collapse of companies such as Enron, WorldCom, ImClone, and Tyco left angry investors, employees, reporters, and government investigators demanding to know how the CEOs deceived everyone into believing their companies were spectacularly successful when in fact they were massively insolvent. Why did the nation's top accounting firms give such companies clean audit reports? Where were the regulators and whistleblowers who should expose fraudulent CEOs before they loot their companies for hundreds of millions of dollars?

Revival America - The 912 Project

In Memoriam - New York City, 9/11/01
Four planes had been hijacked. One would crash into the Pentagon one would be brought down in a field in Pennsylvania. Two would crash into the World Trade Center where thousands would lose their lives. No one could believe the devastation over which a single flag would rise in a place called Ground Zero.

The 912 Project
This is a non-political movement. The 9-12 Project is designed to bring us all back to the place we were on September 12, 2001. The day after America was attacked we were not obsessed with Red States, Blue States or political parties. We were united as Americans, standing together to protect the greatest nation ever created.

Rise and Fall of the American Empire

Colossus: The Rise and Fall of the American Empire
Acclaimed historian Niall Ferguson ranges across the entire history of America’s foreign entanglements and delves into all the dimensions of American power -- military, economic, cultural, and political. The result is a book whose conclusions are as convincing, and troubling, as they are original. Ferguson demonstrates that America has always been an empire in denial and shows the fateful consequences of its special brand of imperialism. He examines the challenges to the United States from its principal rivals, the European Union and China, and offers a compelling analysis of the connection between the country’s domestic economic health and its foreign affairs --the bottom line of imperialism, American style. Colossus is a peerless reckoning with American power that should be read by any thinking citizen of this unspoken empire.

Drugs and Users Threaten USA

DRUG CRAZY
02/04/2009: Mexico: A Fox News report cites the growing paramilitary style arms and training being received by members of drug cartels in Mexico, poised now at the U.S. border and creating chaos in Mexico. The violence is clearly threatening to spill over into the U.S.. "This is modern Mexico, where the leaders of the powerful drug cartels are armed to the teeth with sophisticated weapons, many of which are smuggled over the border from the United States. It is with this array of superior weapons that drug cartels are threatening the very stability of their own country. And it's why America's outgoing CIA Director, Michael Hayden, says violence in Mexico will pose the second greatest threat to U.S. security next year, right after Al Qaeda."
READ DETAILED SOURCE... - How?

In the past year, about 7,000 people have died - more than 1,000 in January alone. The conflict has become increasingly brutal, with victims beheaded and bodies dissolved in vats of acid.

"I think if they (drug lords) merge or decide to cooperate in a greater way, Mexico could potentially have a national security crisis," the defense official said. He said the two have amassed so many people and weapons that Mexican President Felipe Calderon is "fighting for his life" and "for the life of Mexico right now."

As a result, Mexico is behind only Pakistan and Iran as a top U.S. national security concern, ranking above Afghanistan and Iraq, the defense official added. SOURCE...

American Security and Warfare. Categories of Warfare Blurring
U.S. Must Maintain Conventional Dominance
By Donna Miles - American Forces Press Service

Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates article, titled "A Balanced Strategy: Reprogramming the Pentagon for a New Age," cited the need to ensure the United States is prepared to confront both conventional and unconventional threats as well as warfare that blends the two.

"The categories of warfare are blurring and no longer fit into neat, tidy boxes," Gates wrote. "One can expect to see more tools and tactics of destruction -- from the sophisticated to the simple -- being employed simultaneously in hybrid and more complex forms of warfare."

While other nations might not want to challenge the United States "fighter to fighter, ship to ship, tank to tank," Gates said, they are seeking other ways to undermine U.S. capabilities.

"They are developing the disruptive means to blunt the impact of U.S. power, narrow the United States’ military operations and deny the U.S. military freedom of movement and action," he said. READ ALL...

America's Decline Greatly Exaggerated

Is America really in serious decline?
By Steve Yetiv

Hardly a day goes by that I don't hear someone say so. Even President Obama captured this anxiety in his inaugural speech, pointing to a "nagging fear" that America's "decline is inevitable."

Of course, America's problems - from banking and debt crises to foreign security threats - are very serious. But, as bad as things are, here are six reasons why America's starring role on the world stage isn't over.

We've heard predictions of US decline before. Recall that Japan was widely heralded as the new power in the 1980s, with some wanting to write America's epitaph. Then Japan faced massive economic crisis in the 1990s, and America reasserted itself, as the Soviet Union fell.

At bottom, America's remarkable - and remarkably diverse - capabilities will ensure that today's crises are merely temporary setbacks. To paraphrase Mark Twain's joke about his own reported death, news of America's inevitable decline is greatly exaggerated. READ ALL...

China and the US Dollar

China makes US economy its hostage
"China may lead US economy to collapse dumping US dollar".

The US government theoretically could not be happier that foreign Central Banks are willing to finance its perennial budget deficits. However, this borrowing has reached a point where foreigners now control over 40% of the US national debt. Moreover, long-term US interest rates are market-driven, based on the buying and selling of US government bonds. In other words, the US has gradually ceded control of its long-term interest rates to foreign Central Banks, namely China and Japan.

Over the last 30 years, China’s economy has grown at an average annualized rate of nearly 10%. While this statistic alone is jaw-dropping, what is more impressive is the extent to which the nominally Communist country’s economy has become intertwined in the global economy. China now exerts enormous influence over the economies of virtually every country in the world, and a slight change in its domestic economic policy has the potential to send shockwaves rippling throughout the world. Nowhere is this more apparent-and frightening-then in China’s economic relationship with the United States, which is very much at the mercy of China when it comes to prices, wages, interest rates, most importantly, the value of the Dollar.

... if China suddenly decided to diversify its reserves, for economic and/or political reasons, it could potentially crash the Dollar and send US long-term interest rates skyward. READ ALL...

China 'worried' about US Treasury holdings

U.S. Insists China Fears Over Debt Unfounded
The U.S. is implicitly asking China, along with other nations, to buy more government debt to finance its $787 billion stimulus package and other crisis-related spending. That puts China in a bind: It is apparently wary of investing too heavily in dollar assets for fear they will lose value. But it also doesn't want to precipitate a dollar decline by appearing too pessimistic about U.S. prospects.

"We have lent a huge amount of money to the U.S., so of course we are concerned about the safety of our assets," Mr. Wen said in response to a question at his annual news conference. "Frankly speaking, I do have some worries."

"There's no safer investment in the world than in the United States," said presidential spokesman Robert Gibbs. READ ALL...

Falling Wages - Ageism

U.S. Job Seekers to Face Falling Wages, Experts Say
Labor experts say that after landing a new job, workers can expect lower pay because the downturn doesn't show signs of turning around. SOURCE...

Logan's Run
Ageism In the Workplace
We see all kinds of discrimination in the workplace and ageism is certainly one of the leading forms. One of the main problems with ageism is that it's often difficult to identify, particularly in large corporations. Unlike racism, sexism and other forms of discrimination, ageism is often committed on a case-by-case basis. SOURCE...

There is a growing capitalist bias against older workers. Until the 1980s, the contract between workers and corporate America was that the longer salaried employees worked for a company the more they were paid. But with international competition, corporate downsizing (coupled with the fact that "mature workers" are disproportionately represented in aging industries), and how with rampant change lifetimes of experience decreasingly lead to the accumulation of valued social knowledge, seniority has increasingly been replaced with meritocracy. Younger, supposedly better educated, workers are cheaper. They pose fewer problems of authority, as younger managers can feel threatened by older and more experienced subordinates. SOURCE...

Stem Cells Expermentation - Cloning?

The Boys From Brazil

What Obama's executive order on stem cells means
Scientists are also trying to create stem cells from custom-made embryos that are genetic copies of patients.

Isn't that cloning?

In a way, yes. The embryo is a clone, but it is destroyed long before it has the potential to grow into a baby. Stem cell researchers insist they have no interest in reproductive cloning, and Obama reiterated that such work was off-limits.

"We will ensure that our government never opens the door to the use of cloning for human reproduction," he said. "It is dangerous, profoundly wrong, and has no place in our society, or any society."

Obama decision on stem cells cheers scientists

Stem cells are typically derived from fertility clinic surplus that is destined for destruction.

Scientists focused on a new sense of freedom.

"On a personal level, it is an enormous relief and a time for celebration. ... Science thrives when there is an open and collaborative exchange, not when there are artificial barriers, silos, constructed by the government." - Harvard Stem Cell Institute co-director Doug Melton READ ALL ...

"It's important to stress that there were never any fixed hierarchies," said Schmuhl. "Instead, there were horizontal networks, which is typical of the science community. People don't tend to work alone, they work together -- drawing colleagues' attention to interesting cases, providing samples and so on. It always works like that, and that's how it worked in the Third Reich." SOURCE ...

Enshrined in the Hippocratic Oath is a commitment to "treading with care in matters of life and death." During the Third Reich, science jettisoned these principles in a bid to advance the perfection of the German race. SOURCE ...

Radical Education

One-Party Classroom: How Radical Professors at America's Top Colleges Indoctrinate Students and Undermine Our Democracy

"A professor’s job is not to tell students what to think; it is to help them to think carefully, critically, and for themselves. There is a legitimate place for the catechist, the preacher, the social activist, and the community organizer; but that place is not the university classroom. Professors who seek to indoctrinate their students violate a sacred trust. They should be forcefully challenged and publicly held to account. In One-Party Classroom, David Horowitz does just that. The book should provoke a discussion of the ethics of classroom instruction that is long overdue." - Robert P. George, McCormick Professor of Jurisprudence and Director of the James Madison Program in American Ideals and Institutions, Princeton University

"Definitive proof that, whether they succeed or not, thousands of professors go to work every day with the intention of indoctrinating their students in their personal political prejudices." - Candace de Russy, former trustee, State University of New York

"One-Party Classroom shows how far American universities have drifted from academic principles. The politicized courses described here are indeed among the worst cases. What is truly shocking is the unwillingness of university authorities to do anything about them." - Stephen H. Balch, founder and president, National Association of Scholars

"Reveals how political activists masquerading as academics dominate our liberal arts colleges. Regents and trustees need to become engaged in this important battle to restore academic rigor, standards, and accountability to our institutions of higher learning." - Tom Lucero, regent, University of Colorado

Abolishing White Race Culture

the making, remaking, and unmaking of whiteness

The goal of abolishing the white race is on its face so desirable that some may find it hard to believe that it could incur any opposition other than from committed white supremacists.

"The key to solving the social problems of our age is to abolish the white race -- in other words, to abolish the privileges of the white skin."

... entrench permanent race consciousness in everyone -- eternal victimhood for nonwhites, eternal guilt for whites. --

... its operative principle is simple: to break the power of whiteness in this country by encouraging people to renounce the wages of whiteness. --

"Make no mistake about it: we intend to keep bashing the dead white males, and the live ones, and the females too, until the social construct known as 'the white race' is destroyed not 'deconstructed' but destroyed."

What a stirring read! This book is a call to action for all those who feel that America needs change. I guarantee that you won't make it past the first few chapters without being compelled to act. We need more literature like this in our country to win the media war. Read and reread!
"A nation which does not remember what it was yesterday, does not know what it is today, nor what it is trying to do. We are trying to do a futile thing if we do not know where we came from or what we have been about." - Woodrow Wilson
If many of America's citizens have missed it, then let today's generation know now the mighty sweep of spiritual events in our heritage and the story of how, and when, and why "God shed His grace on thee."

AMERICA! AMERICA!
GOD SHED HIS GRACE ON THEE
AND CROWN THY GOOD WITH BROTHERHOOD
FROM SEA TO SHINING SEA!
- Katharine Lee Bates

For the support of this declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of the Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other, our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor.
- DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE


The fifty-six courageous men who signed that document understood that this was not just high-sounding rhetoric. They knew that if they succeeded, the best they could expect would be years of hardship in a struggling new nation. If they lost, they would face a hangman's noose as traitors.

Of the fifty-six few were long to survive. Five were captured by the British and tortured before they died. Twelve had their homes, from Rhode Island to Charleston, sacked, looted, occupied by the enemy, or burned. Two lost their sons in the army. One had two sons captured. Nine of the fifty-six died in the war, from its hardships or from its bullets.

Whatever ideas you have of the men who met that hot summer in Philadelphia, it is important that we remember certain facts about the men who made this pledge; they were not poor men, or wild-eyed pirates. They were men of means; rich men, most of them, who enjoyed much ease and luxury in their personal lives. Not hungry men, but prosperous men, wealthy landowners, substantially secure in their prosperity, and respected in their communities.

But they considered liberty much more important than the security they enjoyed, and they pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor. They fulfilled their pledge. They paid the price. And freedom was won. SOURCE...
Posterity -- you will never know how much it has cost my generation to preserve your freedom. I hope you will make good use of it.
- John Quincy Adams
"It is with humble gratitude to God that this book is lovingly dedicated to the memory of my godly father, with the prayer that God will raise up in our day a new generation of men, women, and young people who walk with God -- men and women who are committed, whatever the cost, to see His righteousness restored in the hearts, homes and institutions of our land. - Nancy Leigh DeMoss

"Sexting" Teen Suffers Loss of Pride and Life

Her teen committed suicide over ‘sexting’

March 6: 18-year-old Jesse Logan took her own life after a nude picture of her was passed around by e-mail. TODAY’s Matt Lauer talks to her mom, Cynthia Logan, and Internet safety expert Parry Aftab about the dangers of "sexting."

The image was blurred and the voice distorted, but the words spoken by a young Ohio woman are haunting. She had sent nude pictures of herself to a boyfriend. When they broke up, he sent them to other high school girls. The girls were harassing her, calling her a slut and a whore. She was miserable and depressed, afraid even to go to school.

And now Jesse Logan was going on a Cincinnati television station to tell her story. Her purpose was simple: "I just want to make sure no one else will have to go through this again."

The interview was in May 2008. Two months later, Jessica Logan hanged herself in her bedroom. She was 18. SOURCE...

A Disturbing Book Worth Reading!
It seems incumbent upon those of us, who share a conservative mindset and who love the founding principles of our constitutional government and our rich Judeo-Christian heritage, to be ever more well-informed and able to address these important issues in conversations with relatives, friends, and peers. Ignorance of historical and religious fact prevails in America, and after reading "The Trouble with Textbooks," you will better (and more disturbingly) understand why!

Critic Says Islamic Extremism Gets Whitewashed in American Textbooks, Education experts are warning that American textbooks present a biased and sugarcoated view of Islamic extremism, a trend that has parents worried about what's being taught in public schools. SOURCE...

Textbooks around the world are blatantly used as tools for propaganda. It is shocking to discover that history and geography textbooks widely used in America’s elementary and secondary classrooms contain some of the very same inaccuracies about Christianity, Judaism, and the Middle East as those in Iran.

The 500 problematic passages about Judaism, Christianity, Islam and the Middle East uncovered in the analysis of the 28 most widely used textbooks in public schools should evoke considerable concern on the part of Americans. History and religion are being distorted in schools in every one of the 50 states.

Reagan and Taxing "the Rich"

President Reagan's Personal Tax Stragegy

Reagan used to tell the story about how when he was a movie actor he'd make 2 pictures a year, which would take maybe 8-9 months, then lay on the beach for the rest of the year. The reason was by the end of the second picture he was in the 90% tax bracket, and it wasn't worth all that effort to get another 10 cents on the dollar.

It didn't hurt him, he said, as he made plenty of money anyway. But what it meant is that the cameramen, set designers, sound people, etc had to go out and look for part time work the rest of the year.

This experience was a primary factor in leading him to advocate lower marginal rates for top income earners. It helped average income earners too.

The Corner has a collection of emails from high earners that gives lots of detail about what many of them will do (with reference to Obama's tax policies). One example:

My wife and I are both Pediatricians. We own our own practice together. We have one PA and 7 other employees. We each gross about $200 K a year. We have 3 young children at home, 2 of which are not in school. We also employ an in home Nanny. My wife has been torn for years about not being at home for these children, which are our biggest investment in the future. We operate parallel S corperations as PC's, with a 50/50 ownership of the LLC that is our business. We file taxes jointly. After crunching some numbers concerning the President's tax hike proposals, I have come to the following conclusions. If the President's plan is inacted, we will do the following:

1. My wife will become a stay at home mother.
2. At least 3 of my 7 employees will be released.
3. The practice will downsize to a smaller office space, i.e. less rent.
4. The number of patients cared for on a daily basis will drop by 40%.
5. My wife will come out of the forced ER call schedule for good.
6. I will gross $249,999.00 a year, exactly.
7. The net income of our personal home will decrease by less than $10 K a year from where it would have been if we changed nothing.
