Apostate Jesters Blaspheme Holy Communion
- By Frederick Meekins

Given the “so what?” and “You better be quiet or its off to a reeducation camp with you” response I’ve gotten from even a number of so-called “Conservatives” regarding the Harry Potter craze and reports of Lois Lane’s out-of-wedlock pregnancy, I guess what I am about to describe is considered OK now as well.

I first heard of this listening to an episode of Kevin Swanson’s Generations Radio archived at SermonAudio.com. Doesn’t take a theological genius to realize that the Episcopal Church is a joke, but this is taking things to a whole new level.

On May 22. 2005, a so-called “Clown Mass” was held at Trinity Church in New York City where these buffoons made a mockery of the Lord’s Supper. With sodomites infesting the ranks of this harlot denomination, certainly puts the term “assclown” into an entirely different context…….

Our Lefties (The People Of The Slogan)
- By R.A. Hawkins

Reading Steve Vincent’s In The Red Zone has been an interesting experience. He offered some unfiltered Iraqi viewpoints that were quite refreshing. One of them was that the people don’t like our liberals either. They call them the people of the slogan. Those are the people that have some idyllic idea of how the world should work that differs from reality, and in ways that only they can explain. He said most of our reporters sit around in coffee houses and wait for people to give them information they can comment on. They usually stay in what is known as the Green Zone.

Steve was also present for a celebration that hasn’t been allowed since Saddam took over the country. That celebration was called Ashura. He managed to get a cab driver to take him for all of the festivities. He had some interesting notes regarding the celebration. He said that the Shia celebration was not an uplifting celebration at all. But he also said that it offered some interesting insights into the Arab mind. At the very end of the celebration he had to ask himself ‘Is this it? There is no uplifting spiritual message here? No thought of the sacrifice for things of the other world?’ He concluded that it was a celebration of misery and death. It was a reenactment of a slaughter from times past. He also mentioned that dying leaders have twice cursed the people for being impossible to rule. This is part of the Iraqi legacy. I suspect that observation may have been the reason for his murder…………..

Doctor Says -Don’t Leer At Me
- By Warner Todd Huston

Dr. Laura Berman, writer for the Chicago Sun Times and “sex therapist”, is mad at construction workers. In a recent column she rails about how she was treated as “eye-candy” by some construction workers on their lunch break as she was on her way to a store in down town Chicago.

Her column, a rant that is a throw back to the worst of the shrill NOW days of a Gloria Stienam during the tortuous 1970’s, is filled with so many poor me-isms that it shouldn’t be a surprise that it misses the bigger point. And like a typically overwrought feminist activist the only ones blamed are those eeevil men……..

Governor says we’re forced to live in a democracy
- By Michael M. Bates

Maybe the hairspray is seeping into his brain. Or perhaps he’s taking pills to boost his testicular virility.

Regardless of the reason, a few weeks ago Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich said something quite strange. Strange even for a Democrat.

It happened when he explained why he was spending up to $10 million taxpayer dollars on stem-cell research without state legislative approval. This was necessary, he claimed, because the General Assembly wouldn’t take action on the issue.

Of course, a possible reason the legislature did not was because the governor failed to propose stem-cell funding in his budget. Nor did he broach the subject in his state of the state address, when the governor outlines his initiatives. He found time in that speech, though, to mention he would officially declare September “Illinois Wine Month.” So we know he can prioritize……………….

We’re ALL Guilty Now Says Tennessee Supreme Court
- By Warner Todd Huston

The Tennessee Supreme Court has handed down a doozie of a decision as reported by the Knoxville News Sentinel (registration required). And, if it doesn’t end up casting all of humanity as the guilty party in any further case from this point forward regardless of the details of the case, then the system of jurisprudence in Tennessee just isn’t paying attention. It certainly is a tidy sort of final solution that should make every future case rather easy to adjudicate, I have to say. I mean, from this point forward, all any judge in Tennessee has to do is bang a gavel and say “Yer all guilty” and then retreat back to his chambers to watch the latest episode of “The People’s Court”………

The Downside of Perpetual Youth
- By Rudy Takala

Conservatives will often bemoan the degradation of American culture, perceiving that it is being destroyed by perverts and miscreants with low morals. And, despite decreases in juvenile crime over the past few decades, they’ll say that the nation’s youth are becoming more hopelessly immoral; perhaps because they play too many video games. Regardless, many people fail to understand why this is, and they unwittingly perpetuate the problem.

Recently, I attended a summer program on the campus of Yale University. Most people would probably believe that only intelligent, mature people can gain access to such a prestigious institution. Unfortunately, there can be as many irresponsible delinquents in voluntary summer programs as there are in public schools.

Males still didn’t care if they could be differentiated from animals, and they certainly didn’t care about academics. I asked a few people why they were interested in the program; their response was that it was a good way to meet girls………

If Iraq is So Bad, Why Aren’t We Pulling Out of Detroit?
- By Justin Darr

Antiwar protestors and car alarms have a lot in common. They are obnoxiously loud, get set off too easily, and alert you to situations far less serious than they sound. There is also one more; they are usually ignored by everyone around them because their noise never seems to end.

In an otherwise slow news summer, Cindy Sheehan, the soon to be forgot pawn of the left, has tried to fuel the antiwar cause through personalizing the losses of American troops in Iraq. So, every American soldier who has fallen in Iraq has a mother, there is a news flash. And, in yet another example of investigative journalism at its best, the main stream media has determined that most of these mothers have been devastated by the loss of a child in the War and wishes it had not happened. However, the left’s concerns for the mothers of the fallen and their propaganda that American casualties indicate a loosing war effort are disingenuous at best. They are far more concerned with embarrassing President Bush than portraying anything accurate about the War or giving the proper honor and support to the families of the fallen. ………….

Additional Thoughts Concerning The Despair Of Naturalism
- By Frederick Meekins

In trying to elevate himself by attempting to remove God from His rightful place upon the throne of the universe, man ends up far from elevating himself and instead finds himself ensnared to a form of despair and bondage far worse than anything that could be imagined under the yolk of Biblical Christianity.

To say that an individual possesses free will is to say that he has the ability to make decisions based upon some criteria existing beyond mere physical impulse.

However, materialistic evolutionary theory contends that this arena of the will does not exist as part of a deeper spiritual reality but is rather mere electrochemical response to physical stimuli with no higher reason or purpose…….

Heaven Sent (The Court Gets It Right, But The Activist Doesn’t)
- By R.A. Hawkins

The seventh circuit court of appeals just got one right. I was hoping that one day we would see some good come from all of these criminals studying law and suing the government.

It started with a prisoner that was not allowed to form an atheists study group because atheism was not considered a religion. After much deliberation the seventh circuit court decided that atheism is actually a religion. I guess they decided on the fourth entry for religions definition. I can’t say that I disagree with them on this matter either. The fourth definition is “A cause, principle or activity that is pursued with zeal or conscientious devotion.” The seventh circuit court decided that atheism is actually a religion.

Many of us have watched the train wreck of our society from the sidelines as atheism was treated as not being a religion. Now that it is considered a religion the playing field will be given a chance to be leveled. I hope this makes it all of the way to the hallowed halls of the Supreme Court so that it will become permanent…………..

“Borrow A Person” In A Swedish library?
- By Warner Todd Huston

We are so constantly inundated with examples illuminating how filled to overflowing with pop psyche nonsense and correspondingly little substance multiculturalism is that it seems almost superfluous to keep bringing the subject up anymore. And just when we thought the multicultural gurus couldn’t get any more ridiculous the Swedes come along and show us that they can one up everyone in the center ring of the circus of “feels good”!

Dateline: Stockholm, Sweden (I always wanted to say that)

In Stockholm, like other big cities, you can go to the local library to find a book on plants, read the latest newspapers, borrow a nice CD to listen to or find an entertaining DVD to watch. But in Stockholm you can do so much more than that at your local library. Yes so much more. Now you can also “borrow” a person. That’s right, folks, you can have your very own person for a wonderful, instructive, meaningful 45 minutes.

So, here’s the deal: You can get your very own Muslim Imam, homosexual, gypsy or even a journalist all to yourself for a heart-to-heart chat so that they can dispel all your “prejudices” and “preconceived notions”. You can happily shed those ignorant notions that you’ve had the misfortune to have been saddled with all these many years, all in an effort to make society nicer.

Yes, you can “borrow” a person and see that you have been an idiot since birth and that homosexuals and Muslims are “real people” too!

Amazing isn’t it?……..

The Price of Censorship
- By Greg Stewart

As some of you might beware, Colorado Representative Tom Tancredo is seemingly on a crusade, if you will, against illegal immigration. In fact, one could say, that he has made it his “wedge” issue. A little more than a month ago, on a Florida talk show, as a guest, he advocated “hypothetically,” that American could or should use “the ultimate weapons” on Islamic religious sites. Essentially he was advocating the use of nuclear weapons. Let me say this, before the crazies come out of the woodwork, and remind me that he never used the words “nuclear” in his interview. This would be correct. However! Unless there is another “ultimate weapon” he was referring to, one can make the assumption he meant nuclear weapons.

At any rate, Colorado has been dealing with the rather outspoken representative for quite some time. But his contribution regarding the “illegal immigration” has spilled itself full force into Colorado politics. This is especially true since the unwarranted killing of an off duty Denver police officer — Donald Young. The assailant was an “undocumented worker” who was attending a wedding reception of a family member. He left the party and later tried to return, but was denied entry by the off duty officers hired to maintain order. According to reports by the Denver media, he then returned to his vehicle to obtain his gun, and went back to shoot the officers at the door from behind. Donald Young died. His partner was severely injured. … ………

Harry Belafonte: Still bananas after all these years
- By Michael M. Bates

So what do you do if your major claim to fame is as a singer and your last big hit was almost 50 years ago? If you’re Calypso has-been Harry Belafonte, you spend the last half century making a major league ass of yourself.

“Day-O” (The Banana Boat Song) was hugely popular in 1957. That year, it took $50,000 to snag Harry for make a television appearance. Elvis Presley was only receiving $40,000.

His celebrity gave Harry an opportunity. He has, he humbly told a graduating class, used his reputation as a singer “in the service of the human family.”

Make that the human family, anti-American division. In Belafonte’s universe, the United States is always to blame.

Harry speaks about peace and love and harmony. That’s often a red flag. People talking in those terms can be filled with a seething rage……………….

Respect For The Dead Or Fear Of What Lies Ahead?
- By Frederick Meekins

My brief comments regarding Stephen Jay Gould’s family suing over his death from cancer at the hands of inept doctors generated a greater response than anticipated, once again proving the role played by evolution as a fault line in the ongoing battle of values dividing much of America. Yet despite the emotional responses Darwin’s theory continues to evoke, those seeking to escape the implications of a universe created and sustained by God continue to formulate arguments in defense of their position that even a Neanderthal could see through.

One response chided me as a soulless individual for supposedly “speaking so ill of the dead” for pointing out the inconsistencies of materialists seeking compensation for the loss of a loved one since by definition that worldview has no objective standard upon which to base right or wrong with human beings ultimately of no more importance than the disease organisms doctors regularly seek to eradicate…….

Get Off My Honor: A Review
- By Rudy Takala

I recently finished reading Hans Zeiger’s new book, Get Off My Honor: The Assault on the Boy Scouts of America. It attempted to demonstrate, as most political books have done as of late, that a certain institution is being victimized.

The way we attempt to frame political debates in modern times is an amusing phenomenon to observe. People aren’t so interested in what’s philosophically right or wrong as they are in what factions are being most oppressed by other factions in society. From David Limbaugh’s Persecution to Ann Coulter’s Slander to David Brock’s The Republican Noise Machine, everyone wants to be a victim.

While the thesis of Get Off My Honor isn’t exactly an exception, the cases backing it are a bit more credible than those frequently used to prove the persecution alleged in other books. In the past decade, liberal assaults on the Boy Scouts have been more organized, more numerous, and strangely more viperous than their assaults on other conservative institutions. The Boy Scouts embody everything liberals hate, and liberals seem to believe that the mood of the American people is such that they’ll be more agreeable to regulating the Boy Scouts than other Christian institutions………

Dear Ron Paul (An Open Letter to Ron Paul)
- By R.A. Hawkins

During both of the Gulf Wars I have noticed you were always against the war. It may or may not surprise you, but I’m against all wars. The sad part is that sometimes there is no choice but to have a war. I have a suggestion for you based on some of the things you’ve brought up over the years. Even though I don’t agree with just about anything you say regarding geo-politics I think you’ve had some excellent suggestions regarding where we all live.

During the Republican revolution that occurred right in the middle of the first Clinton Administration there was a Contract With America. When the media began trumpeting the success of the Republicans pushing everything through I became suspicious. They did come close but the media gave them full credit for finishing the job. Why did they do this? Because to the average person on the street nothing noticeable had changed. The media gave the Republicans credit in order to be able to sit back and say, “Okay what are you going to do for your next trick?”…………..

Who Cares What Her Son Believed? Cindy Sheehan has an Agenda
- By Justin Darr

On April 4, 2004, Army Specialist Casey Sheehan died for his country and for what he believed. After enlisting in the Army in 2000, Casey Sheehan reenlisted for a second tour knowing full well that he could be sent to fight in Iraq. In late March, 2004, he was stationed with the 82nd Field Artillery Regiment as a mechanic. Despite the fact Sheehan was in a noncombatant position with the Army, in his first week on base, Sheehan volunteered to go on a dangerous mission into the heart of the Iraqi insurgency in Sadr City and was killed in action. These are the acts of a hero, not unlike thousands of others in the armed forces who sacrifice, and sometimes die, daily for our country.

While it has not been reported what Casey Sheehan’s views on the War in Iraq were, it is rather obvious that if he thought he was wasting his time, or participating in an immoral and illegal action, he would not have reenlisted. Nor, would he have placed himself willingly into the line of fire knowing full well the possible consequences of his actions. Casey Sheehan was a patriot who showed through his deeds the bravery and determination that can only come from a person who deeply believes in the cause for which he is fighting.

Well, somebody should let his mother know this, because Cindy Sheehan has decided to use her son’s flag draped coffin as a soap box to shout out her personal leftist beliefs that are completely contrary to those of her son ………….

THE BURNING OF ATLANTA 2005
- By Robin Mullins Boyd

Atlanta was burning again this past weekend. This time it was not Sherman marching through but it was Jesse Jackson and his comrades taking it to the streets. Staging a protest of a non-issue, the reauthorization of the Voting Rights Act provisions in 2007, was just a cover for more Bush bashing by the Progressive Caucus and the Liberals.

Playing the typical race card, Jackson and others blamed the Bush Administration for everything from segregation to slavery. The Bush Administration was attacked for its record on human rights, civil rights and economic rights. Did this crowd supply any facts to back up their claims? Of course not - facts to a Liberal are like Kryptonite to Superman………….

In Defense of a “Dogmatist”
- Eric Reikowski

Last week, I wrote a column entitled “The Lame Joke of Progressive Christianity,” and it appears that I’ve touched a few nerves. The said column prompted an immediate response article from two indignant writers who labeled me a “dogmatic fundamentalist” who is “giving Christianity a bad name.” They further stated that, in writing such a column, I have taken “the majority of Christians” as a joke.

I apologize. I had no idea that, in denouncing abortion, homosexual activity, and coerced redistribution of wealth, I was offending most Christians. I also was unaware that I had accused progressive Christians of vigorously campaigning to remove Christian symbols from the public square. I am pretty sure that I was referring to the ACLU on that one.

These writers claim that I am peddling an antiquated Christian theology that focuses on vengeance and judgment rather than on compassion and love. They insist I am making unfounded judgments about progressive Christians (even though the basis for such judgments comes straight from the progressives’ themselves) and they will refrain from stooping to my level. Yet, they turned right around and accused people like me of “rolling around in the Old Testament while not living life like Jesus would want them to.” Furthermore, “[I] am too busy quoting Biblical versus (sic) to listen to the words of beauty that the Son of God spoke in the Sermon on the Mount.” Apparently my critics don’t listen to them either considering where the lone Biblical passage I had quoted came from…………

Hiroshima anniversary drives peaceniks postal
- By Michael M. Bates

Last week marked 60 years since the United States dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima. Protests were held around the world with some of them condemning America for what happened in Japan in 1945, for what is happening in Iraq in 2005, and for everything in between.

Actor Martin Sheen, who is what passes for a conscience in Make Believe Land, was taken into custody at a no-nukes demonstration in Nevada. Unfortunately, authorities turned him loose.

A letter printed in the Chicago Tribune asserted: “No civilized nation could do what the U.S. did to Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. Most Americans still lack the morals to determine that such a hideous deed was a massive crime against humanity.”

The writer was at least partially correct: a majority of Americans think using the bomb on Hiroshima was the right thing to do. A recent Gallup poll didn’t match the 85 percent approval reflected in a 1945 opinion survey, but it still showed solid support among the public……………….

Dem Defense Dummies (They Did Show They’re Unlike Bush)
- By R.A. Hawkins

It will be interesting to see how the left will act in the next election. This last one was such a travesty that I still haven’t quit laughing. The Democrats were in such a rush to show they were different from Bush they had to do some intellectual gymnastics, which only their beloved acolytes could understand. What none of them realized is that they were showing their true colors. They still haven’t figured out that people are starting to see them for what they are.

If one were to look at the list of what Bill Clinton cut from our military one would be shocked. I’ve seen the list in the form of a “name the country that this military belongs to”. The list goes on and on naming weapons systems and personnel and ends with one of the most hard-hitting comments. It said quite plainly that the country doesn’t exist anymore. It turns out the list was what Bill Clinton and company got rid of. So I find it a little amusing that Hillary says we need to increase our troop strength. It is fun to watch them reinvent themselves though. The sad part is that liberal activists will do everything they can to make it easy for stupid people to vote too. That is the purpose of the motor voter bills and it was the purpose of the INS swearing stadiums full of new US citizens just prior to the 2000 election…………..
