God Isn’t Necessary, According to Stephen Hawking
Stephen Hawking states in his book “The Grand Design” that, given the existence of gravity, “the universe can and will create itself from nothing.” “Spontaneous creation is the reason why there is something rather than nothing, why the universe exists, why we exist,” he writes in the excerpt published Thursday in The Times of... »
Democrats’ Definition of Freedom and Liberty
The following is an excellent commentary on freedom and liberty from the perspective of the entitlement-drunk democrats and their unmotivated, give-me-something-for-nothing base. It is written by Scott Strzelczyk for American Thinker and is worth a read. The Democrats’ political endgame requires citizens to accept subsistence as the new definition of freedom. Democrats created a... »
The Cause of Earthquakes – Immodest Iranian Women
Ever wonder just why we are seeing so many horrible earthquakes. The answer may be blowing in the wind of Iran. Senior Iranian cleric, Hojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi told worshippers in Tehran last Friday that “Many women who do not dress modestly lead young men astray and spread adultery in society which increases earthquakes.” According... »

When Will This Administration Wake Up to the Threat of Terrorism?
Richard Cohen, an Op-Ed Columnist for The Washington Post, has written an article that reflects the concerns that many of us have about the competence and motivation of this administration’s efforts to fight terrorism. It is must reading, and should be required reading for President Obama and his national security advisers. The following is... »
Can Mark Kirk Win the Illinois U.S. Senate Seat?
Republicans are looking hungrily at the Illinois U.S. Senate seat once held by Barak Obama. With Scott Brown’s success in Massachusetts, Illinois appears to be another winnable victory for the minority Republicans. “The Illinois seat is going to be top of the Republican priority list, not for symbolic reasons that it’s Obama’s home state,... »
Tim Tebow Super Bowl Ad Protested By the Left
Focus on the Family has paid CBS $2.5 million for a 30-second Super Bowl commercial which will feature Tim and Pam Tebow. The background for the ad involves the time when Pam, pregnant with Tim, contracted a serious disease while on a mission trip in the Philippines. She was urged by doctors to have an... »
Bomb Iran?
“Air strikes agains are the only plausible option with any prospect of preventing Iran’s acquisition of nuclear weapons.” This is the studied opinion expressed in a New York Times Op-Ed piece written by Alan J. Kuperman, director of the Nuclear Proliferation Prevention Program at the University of Texas at Austin. He argues that incentives and... »
Charter Schools On The Increase
More than 5,000 charter schools are now operating in 39 states and the District of Columbia, according to the Center for Education Reform. The Wall Street Journal stated: “Considering that the first charter didn’t open until 1992, and that these innovative schools have faced outright hostility from teachers unions and the education bureaucracy, their... »
Taxpayer Dollars Encourage Human Embryo Destruction
The U.S. government has approved the first batch of human embryonic stem cells for researchers to use. President Barak Obama has now fulfilled a campaign promise and overturned the restrictions on human embryonic stem cell research imposed by former president George W. Bush.

Meet Marco Rubio
The National Review has christened him as a Reaganite’s answer to Barak Obama. Meet Marco Rubio, the rising star in Conservative politics. It is a name that you will hear often in the coming months, quite probably on into 2012. He is currently coming from behind to challenge Florida’s Governor Charlie Crist in the Republican Primary... »
Hasan Ties With al Qaeda
According to Reuters, intelligence agencies learned that Major Nidal Malik Hasan, a U.S. Army psychiatrist who counseled wounded soldiers, had contact with an Islamist sympathetic to al Qaeda Officials said the information had been passed to law enforcement authorities. This paragraph should be the headline in every newspaper as the admission of an unmitigated... »
Ft. Hood Was Murderous Hatred Unleashed
With all the PC BS bouncing off the walls, amplified by the pithy prouncements of Dr. Phil and other apologists, Major Nidal Malik Hasan’s massacre at Ft. Hood must be regulated to the same genre as the attacks of 9/11 – an act of Islamic fanaticism. Words escape most of us in our revulsion... »
Obama: All Tricks, No Treats
Halloween brings to mind tricksters, ghouls and goblins. For some reason, it makes me think of Obama, Reid and Pelosi. I ran across the following Halloween allegory written by William Tate at American Thinker and thought it worth sharing. “What treat would you like?” I asked the two costumed children at my door. “Thirty-eight... »
Is Obama Dismantling America?
Noted columnist Thomas Sowell has penned a piece for Creators that reveals the drift of many of the current activities of the Obama Administration. Entitled “Dismantling of America”, what he has written is both timely and somewhat alarming. The entire piece is must reading. His closing sentence poses a compelling question for all Americans: Nothing so epitomizes... »
ObamaCare Opposition Rising
One of the most profound comments about the health care and other major policy debates now taking place was voiced in Arthur Brooks’ recent editorial in the Wall Street Journal: “The choices will ultimately always come down to competing visions of America’s future. Will we strengthen freedom, individual opportunity and enterprise? Or will we... »
Limbaugh & Dunn Media Bias
First of all, I am no fan of Rush Limbaugh. I am often concerned that Limbaugh, Beck, Coulter, et al, are the only voices that are identified as speaking for the Republican Party. They aren’t – there are many out there that, although underreported, are articulating an intellectual conservative alternative to the current megalithic... »
ObamaCare Is The Solution?
Yesterday, a friend of mine sent me a tounge-in-cheek (I think) summary of the proposed ObamaCare legislation. It bears repeating: Let me get this straight. We’re going to pass a health care plan written by a committee whose head says he doesn’t understand it, passed by a Congress that hasn’t read it but exempts themselves... »
Shame On You, Mr. President
First of all, I disagree with the recent SNL parody which pilloried President Barack Obama for “doing nothing.” This was an attack normally reserved for the likes of Limbaugh, Beck, and Coulter, but this time, it came from a reservation allocated to the left. I say that I disagree because Obama has actually done... »
Iran Has Plans To Build Its Own Atomic Bomb
In spite of all the posturing and “pretend” agreements to ship enriched uranium to Russia, the fact is that Iran is obsessed with nukes and they will probably have one sooner more than later. A lot of evidence indicates that they are working full throttle to develop – and test their own nuclear bomb.... »
Vote For Ice Cream, Get The Cow
A friend of mine sent me one of those emails that you normally glance at and then reach for the delete key. This time, for some reason, I actually read the whole thing. It ostensibly came from a third grade teacher from the Nashville, TN area. I then did a cursory check with Snopes -... »
The Ten Cannots – William Boetcker
William John Henry Boetcker (1873–1962) was an American religious leader and influential public speaker. Wikipedia’s brief bio indicates that Boetcker was born in Hamburg, Germany, and soon after his arrival in the United States as a young adult, he was ordained a Presbyterian minister. He quickly gained attention as an eloquent motivational speaker, and... »
Are You Stimulated?
How many Americans can say that they have benefited from the government’s massive “stimulus” program? If you are one of the several of government agencies responsible for spending under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, you have enjoyed major increases in your budget that you are urged to spend. If you are among the many newly hired... »
Clunkers Math
A relative of mine who is a retired math professor just completed an analysis of the cost-benefits of the recent “Cash for Clunkers” program: A vehicle at 15 mpg and 12,000 miles per year uses 800 gallons a year. A vehicle at 25 mpg and 12,000 miles per year uses 480 gallons a... »
September 11, 2001 – Never Forget!
Stop for a moment in your busy day and pause in prayerful rememberance of the cowardly tragic attack and the horrible loss of life that took place on September 11, 2001. May God protect those in our military who even today are ensuring our protection and helping to preserve our freedom. Although healed, we... »
