African Bishops Defy Obama’s Pro-Gay Bullying

African Bishops Defy Obama’s Pro-Gay Bullying by Thomas D. Williams, Ph.D. In the aftermath of President Obama’s pro-gay push in Kenya, a series of African bishops and other religious leaders have responded forcefully, reminding the President that the Church’s stand against homosexual acts is not going to change. During his visit, Obama condemned Kenya’s outlawing of homosexual acts as “wrong—full stop,” comparing Kenya’s policy toward gays to the treatment of blacks in the United States prior to the civil rights movement. “As an African American in the United States I am painfully aware of what happens when people are treated… View Article

This Week in Progressive Lunacy: Air Conditioning is Sexist

This Week in Progressive Lunacy: Air Conditioning is Sexist by Mark Tapson Good to know that the Washington Post is covering all the hot issues. Air conditioning and gender inequality, for example Petula Dvorak is a columnist for the Washington Post “who writes about homeless shelters, gun control, high heels, high school choirs, the politics of parenting, jails, abortion clinics, mayors, modern families, strip clubs and gas prices, among other things.” We don’t need to know that.

Sheriff’s Office in Missouri Puts “In God We Trust” Stickers on All Patrol Vehicles

Sheriff’s Office in Missouri Puts “In God We Trust” Stickers on All Patrol Vehicles by John S. Roberts It’s nice to see that not everyone wants to shun religion these days. For example, the Stone County Sheriff’s office in Missouri recently placed “In God We Trust” stickers on the back of all patrol vehicles. Missouri atheists, what are you going to do? Will you call the cops if you’re in a shady situation, or will you be stubborn enough to not dial 9-1-1? I’m assuming the latter, but I’m praying for the former. Gotta love it! Without Him, life has… View Article

Ukrainian-Canadian Scholar: ‘The West Does Not Want the Conflict in Ukraine Resolved’

Ukrainian-Canadian Scholar: ‘The West Does Not Want the Conflict in Ukraine Resolved’ An excellent and concise analysis. And a great point: How is Russia an obstacle to peace when it presents no demands of its own? Facts: Kiev is blocking the implementation of the Minsk agreements The West ignores this and its continuing human rights abuses by Mikhail Molchanov By this time, it should be obvious that the west does not want a conflict in Ukraine to be resolved any time soon.

Obama Plans New Executive Action to Keep Illegals in US By Courtney Coren The Obama administration is planning to expand a waiver program, a move that would allow even more illegal immigrants to gain legal status. This expansion is part of the executive action on immigration enacted by President Barack Obama in 2013, which created a waiver program that illegal immigrants could participate in if they had a spouse or parent who is a U.S. citizen. Under the 2013 action, such illegals could stay — rather than leave the country and be barred from returning for between three and 10… View Article
