I have an article in today’s American Spectator.

Last night I stumbled upon an article, A Case For Secession-Introduction,  (first of a series) on Gather.com and it struck me that the time may soon be approaching when one or two states will be called to step up for the rest of us in hopes of saving the Republic.  I’m not advocating for secession now; I’m just looking at the possibility with a little more interest. How such a move might shift our ‘government’ back to position where Representatives actually have to listen to and respect their constituents is a question that interests me.  What is clear is that with Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid in control, Democratic Members of Congress are currently being effectively bribed with earmarks, promises or threats to pass legislation America does not want. They are not listening.

As has been the case for many years, and especially most recently, the charge is that conservatives are falsely railing against a straw man in their observations and accusations leveled against the activities of liberals, and the Obama administration. Before I address this situation directly, let’s take a moment to look at what is meant by the term “straw man.”

Growing up, I always thought Jesus’ admonition in the Book of Matthew, “The poor you will always have with you,” wasn’t meant to be taken literally as a directive to ignore the poor, but that’s exactly what a prominent Roman Catholic charity believes.

Obama Enjoys A Choreographed Moment at China’s Great Wall
Obama walked down the last ramp by himself in a choreographed moment for photographers. White House aides were exultant afterward that “the shot” they had planned turned out perfectly.

Funny how NIMBY politicians and activists are so quick to volunteer other states to do tasks they’d think twice about should it happen near their homes…

OK, perhaps the president did not use those exact words, but that is the essence of what our terrorist-coddling, PC addicted ditherer said.

Consistent with his governing philosophy of accepting responsibility for nothing, President Obama is speaking out against soaring deficits as though he were an innocent bystander as reckless spending pushes America to the brink of being a third-world, failed state.

Other than the complete destruction of the U.S. economy, one sixth of which is generated by the healthcare profession, I cannot see any reason for the bill that Harry Reid is pushing for a Saturday evening vote in the Senate.

The US Senate, under the Teflon leadership of Harry Reid, is preparing to force us into the world of socialized medicine. Histories lessons of just how disastrous such a move can be are being ignored by the same politicians who claim they know more than we do. It seems interesting to me that these supremely wise…giants, as Henry Hyde called them, have the memory of a mayfly.

Bill Donohue of the Catholic League claims in a press release that President Obama has double-crossed the Catholic bishops on the matter of abortion funding in the health care bill. “The Senate has just completed its version, and it contains nothing like the language of the [anti-abortion] Stupak amendment” in the House bill, notes Donohue.

“We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America…”

You are an American.  The blood of heroes and patriots courses through your arteries and veins.  Millions of men and women have paid the ultimate sacrifice and many have been maimed for life so that you can stand free on a new continent, where freedom was born. 

Obama and his administration have been caught in another huge lie and, this time, it’s a doozey!  Remarkably, one of Obama’s own state-run media ABC News broke the story.  For months now, Obama and his various administration mouthpieces have been extolling the virtues of the dictator-in-chief’s “creation” of millions of new jobs!  With millions of verifiable jobs having been lost since Obama usurped the position of POTUS and hundreds of thousands more still being lost each and every month, anyone who still maintains the ability to think knows this was a lie.  And now another immense ObamaLie has been exposed.

The Canada Free Press (CFP) America’s Photo Gallery page is a place to come to in these quickly changing times.

Sound theology is being supplanted daily by the church’s drive toward a more social gospel. Fighting poverty, aids, hunger and homelessness are now considered more important than getting people saved. Are we on the right track?

Isn’t it wonderful!  Thanksgiving is here next week then Christmas will be on its way!  We have so much to be thankful for and celebrate,  especially those liberals and “special” people.  Given how special the far left is,  I tried to rewrite a few carols in honor of them.

US federal agents nabbed a 21-year old illegal alien wanted in Texas for murder attempting to escape back into Mexico.

America’s poet laureate Robert Frost claimed “good fences make good neighbors.” I know there are numerous interpretations of the phrase, but I currently find myself wondering about the meaning of his statement in light of today’s world.
