Another suicide bombing in Baghdad

According to CBS News/AP:

BAGHDAD - A suicide bomber detonated an explosives-packed car near a funeral procession in southeastern Baghdad on Friday, killing at least 32 people — half of them policemen who were guarding the march — in the latest brazen attack since the U.S. troop withdrawal from Iraq.

For years the America-hating Left said that all the killing in Iraq (and elsewhere in the Middle East, for that matter) was the result of U.S. intervention in their affairs. The U.S. is now gone, yet the Muslim-on-Muslim violence continues, just as it has since the days of Muhammad's earliest successors.

Oh, I know. The Left will predictably respond saying that Christian-on-Christian violence has also occurred since the days of Christianity's founder. They fail to understand, however, that generally speaking, those who commit violence in the name of Christianity are not following Jesus' example and are behaving in direct violation of his teachings. Those who commit violence in the name of Islam are following their founder's example and acting in direct obedience to his teachings.

Navy SEALS' daring rescue in Somalia

Kudos to the Navy SEALS for their daring rescue of two kidnapped aid workers in Somalia!  Kudos, too, to President Obama for authorizing the raid.

I can't help thinking, however, that if this had happened under President Bush the New York Times lead story would have been, "Bush administration invades Somalia illegally and kills nine Somali nationals."

Occupiers throw Bibles, urinate on the Cross

Members of the Occupy Movement throw Bibles, urinate on a cross, and steal money from a church! Such "brave" thugs. I'd like to see them throw or urinate on the Koran and see what happens! There would likely be riots all over the world and everyone from Barack Obama on down would be pontificating on their horrible hate crimes. But since this was done against Christianity, and by a group admired by Democratic politicians and the liberal media, the story will probably die out quickly and no one will mention hate crimes. After all, hate crimes is a category that can be used very selectively for political purposes.

Obamacare and freedom of religion

There is an Obamacare mandate that requires even religious (Catholic) organizations to provide coverage for contraception. I'm not Catholic and I don't have a problem with contraception, but a government mandate requiring religious organizations to violate their fundamental religious convictions is unconstitutional, unAmerican, and even tyrannical!

If the Obama administration had their way, not only would they force religious organizations to provide coverage for contraception in violation of their religious convictions, they would also force religious organizations to hire people whose behaviors are considered to be abominable to many Christians, and would force Christian hospitals, doctors and nurses to perform abortions in violation of their religious convictions.

Many Christians brush these things off because they are not immediately affected by such mandates. I would remind them of the words attributed to a German pastor under the Nazi rule of Germany:

First they came for the communists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist.

Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Jew.

Then they came for the Catholics,
and I didn't speak out because I was Protestant.

Then they came for me
and there was no one left to speak out for me.

Ron Paul's inconsistency?

To say that I'm not a Ron Paul fan would be a big understatement so I'm not posting this in defense of Ron Paul, but because MSNBC (of all places) has done an amazing job of showing the incredible bias and dishonesty of the Associated Press!

Educating future terrorists

Please take time to read this very short article about what our "ally," Saudi Arabia, is teaching its young people.
I understand that Palestinians teach their children the same things.

The Left sometimes argues that Islamic fundamentalists do not understand Islam. It is amazing to me how blind (not to mention arrogant and ignorant) the Western Left can be when they argue that the leaders of Saudi Arabia, Iran, Syria or the Palestinians do not understand Islam!

Fourteen bombs explode in Baghdad today

Fox News is reporting that fourteen bombs exploded in Baghdad this morning, this after the U.S. has pulled out of Iraq.

Didn't the liberals tell us that all this violence in Iraq was caused by the fact that the U.S. was there?

Romney, Gingrich, Bachmann, Santorum and Occupy

Mitt Romney has always seemed to be a relatively calm and reasonable candidate. Considering his recent barrage of what almost appears to be desperate attacks on Newt Gingrich, Romney must be feeling like his chances of the nomination could be slipping away.

Although I think both Romney and Gingrich would be light-years better than the President we have now, they are both enormously wealthy career politicians who tend to lead by sticking their wetted finger in the air to see which way the political winds are blowing. Not only that, but Romney's flippant offer of a ten thousand dollar bet leads to suspicion that Romney really has no idea what average American's go through.

If America really wants a President who is grounded on core convictions rather than on the changing tide of political winds (mixed metaphor), and who is more in touch with average people, I think the choice is between Michele Bachmann or Rick Santorum. Unfortunately, most Americans seem to have bought into the media nonsense and lies portraying Bachmann and Santorum as unstable, far Right loonies.

The fact that this nonsense has gained any traction at all demonstrates how far Left this country has gone in the last 50 years.  If you want to know where the Left will ultimately take us, just take a good hard look at the Occupy movement.  

Washington’s Regulatory Overreach

» Another Obama Donor Complains About Washington’s Regulatory Overreach - Big Government

Bestiality now OK in the U.S. military?

The Obama administration recently announced that they will use foreign aid to promote gay rights overseas! 

To the Obama administration, gay rights is apparently more important than true human rights such as freedom of religion, freedom of speech or freedom of the press (we keep giving billions of dollars to nations that regularly suppress these rights).

And speaking of homosexuality, in their efforts to support homosexuality in the military, the U.S. Senate recently overturned a provision in the U.S. Code of military justice that prohibits bestiality!  Apparently "alternative lifestyles" also includes having sex with dogs and goats now! 

What's next? Acceptance of pedophilia and incest as "alternative lifestyles"? Oh, I know--some will mock such an idea. But only 30 years ago the idea that homosexual sex would not only be accepted but promoted in our public schools, would have been considered outrageous. Until now, the idea that our Congress would allow bestiality in the military would have been mocked. And yet, here we are.

McDonalds turns the tables on San Francisco!

Remember when liberals used to rant against conservatives about how we can't legislate morality and how we should keep our laws out of the bedroom?

Now these same liberals use the law to legislate morality by regulating food! The liberals are apparently OK with facilitating sex and pornography for children but you are a hell-bound sinner if you give those children a french fry! Such is the morality of the Left.

But McDonalds has used the liberal's own laws against them and is turning a profit in the process! What a great lesson in the unintended consequences of well-meaning government regulations.

(Hat tip, Kevin I).

No more right to a fair trial

As I understand it, John McCain is supporting a "proposed amendment to the pending defense authorization bill that could allow American citizens who are suspected of terrorism to be denied a civilian trial."

Suspected by whom?

Just think how handy this would have been back in the McCarthy era! The President could have just declared all those Hollywood actors "terrorists" and have them shipped off to a military prison with no rights to a civilian trial.

President Obama could just have charges against TEA Party activists--or political opponents--trumped up in order to have them sent to Gitmo to be held without the right to defend themselves in civilian court.

Some future President could just determine that Christian fundamentalists are no different than Muslim fundamentalists and and are all suspect.

This proposal sounds as unconstitutional as it is scary!

New global warming e-mails released

Five thousand e-mails between scientists investigating global warming have just been released. According to Forbes,

Three themes are emerging from the newly released emails: (1) prominent scientists central to the global warming debate are taking measures to conceal rather than disseminate underlying data and discussions; (2) these scientists view global warming as a political “cause” rather than a balanced scientific inquiry and (3) many of these scientists frankly admit to each other that much of the science is weak and dependent on deliberate manipulation of facts and data.

Christian immigration denied

This is infuriating! Anti-Christian bigotry by Muslims and the Left is undermining the core of our civilization:

Murder of a gay boy results in 25 years in prison

This kid walked up to an openly gay classmate in his school and shot him in the head! He gets 25 years in prison and will be out by the time he's 42. The prosecutors probably got the best sentence they could get, but he should have received the death penalty.

We can disagree about the morality (or lack thereof) of homosexual behavior but there should be no disagreement about society having zero tolerance for murder--and in my opinion, only 25 years in prison for cold-blooded murder is too much tolerance.

"Occupy... Protesters Slash Police Officers"

'Occupy San Francisco' Protesters Brutally Slash Police Officers - Occupy Wall Street - Fox Nation:

"He's dictatorial, is what he is"

According to Real Clear Politics:

"That is arrogant," Paul said of Obama frequently using the executive order function as of late. "It is flaunting the Constitution and the whole principle of how we’re supposed to operate. The idea they can just do this and take over the legislative function and brag about it -- and Congress does nothing and the courts do nothing about it, it's very, very bad."

"He's dictatorial, is what he is," Rep. Paul said before the end of the interview.

I am certainly no fan of Ron Paul, but when he's right, he's right. Unfortunately, we have Democrats in Congress who don't care about the Constitution either. Ron Paul is right: this is "very, very bad."

Why is this lawlessness being allowed to continue? More importantly, why have prominent Democrats supported this movement?

Ron Paul wants to be friends with Iran

According to the Washington Post,

When asked on “Fox News Sunday” what he would do to deter Iran’s alleged nuclear ambitions, Paul said “maybe offering friendship to them.”

Ron Paul is apparently as absolutely clueless about the nature of radical Islam as Neville Chamberlain was about the nature of the Nazis.

Occupy protesters attacking police

According to Fox News:

Meanwhile, in Occupying events around the United States, police are mocked, screamed at, spat upon, confronted, pushed, knocked off motorcycles and loads more. New York confrontations resulted in hundreds of protesters arrested. While Occupiers attacked Oakland police with everything from “eggs” and “paint” to “feces” and “M-80” firecrackers, the bigger threat is a new tactic called “doxing.” It’s part of the culture that comes from hacker group Anonymous, which is one of the major organizers of the Occupy Wall Street protests.

Why do we allow our police to be treated like this? The vast majority of police are just men and women who are doing their jobs protecting us. Egging, throwing feces, spitting on or otherwise attacking police should be considered a felony offence with very serious consequences.

Many of these occupy people seem to be little more than self-centered, ignorant thugs. The really shocking thing is that so many prominent Democrats publicly support them!

The most open administration rejects Solyndra subpoena

According to the Washington Examiner:

President Obama's attorney sent a letter to Congressional investigators on Friday, saying the White House would not cooperate with a subpoena requesting documents related to its doling out a $535 million loan guarantee to now bankrupt solar panel manufacturer Solyndra.

Didn't Obama promise that his administration was going to be the most open administration in history? Another Obama lie?
