Last week GOP senatorial candidate for Missouri Todd Akin found himself at the center of a media firestorm due to a very inappropriate choice of words he made. He had been questioned about his prolife position on abortion policy, with particular emphasis placed on […]

The plight of the Copts
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHvQXfGUBCs&feature=player_embedded] The video above shows raw emotional pain. I could have chosen worse, but I wanted only to convey the distress our brothers are in without exalting the power of the enemy. As it is, it is hard enough to take. The two year […]
If I wanted America to fail…
I continue to pray that America will not be fooled again. God have mercy.
Voodoo morality: Obama offers a meaningless compromise
President Obama has come out with his glorious “compromise” regarding his health care regulation that would force religious institutions to pay for contraceptive and abortifacient coverage for their employees. And what solution has The Smartest Person In The World come up with? That the […]
A most illiberal decree
The latest depredation of the Obama administration involves a health care regulation that will force all medical insurance plans to provide full coverage for drugs and procedures which can take the life of an already-conceived human being. This is exactly what we warned the […]
The ugliness begins
One very ugly story today in the Guardian. It’s ugly in two ways: first, for the story that is told, and second, for the way that story is told. The story is that minorities are alleging a massive attempt to deprive them of the […]
The state of our presidential politics
I tuned in for no more than one minute of the Republican presidential debate this Tuesday, before turning it off in disgust. The bickering and infighting had reached the level of a circular firing squad. Enough. I’m going to make some rather plain statements […]
“Birth control” –and abortion – for all, underwritten by all, like it or not
In the latest depredation by the Obama administration, Health and Human Services is proposing radical new regulations that would require private insurers – even those covering religious institutions such as churches, schools and hospitals – to fund contraceptive services with no charge or co-pay […]
Bernard Nathanson, rest in peace
I just learned with sadness of the passing of Dr. Bernard Nathanson. Nathanson’s life was a bit reminiscent of that of Paul of Tarsus. In the early 1970s, he pioneered the ushering in of unlimited abortion in the United States. As this compelling and […]
A revolution of moral sanity
There is a moral revolution going on in this nation, and entrenched interests are doing their best to suppress it. Nancy Pelosi called the gathering TEA (“taxed enough already”) movement “astroturf”, meaning it was fake grassroots financed by dark conservative sources. But if you […]
Where is America?
At this point, I’m wondering what America stands for. And I suspect I’m not alone.We have a brutal dictator, who also happens to be criminally anti-American, at the first time in four long decades vulnerable to overthrow. We see him using mercenaries to cut […]
Said Musa, guilty of Christianity, to be hanged within days
Our friends the Afghanis are set to hang a Christian brother for the dread crime of turning away from Islam, which he did eight years ago. We have spent precious blood, much toil, and a whole lot of money to bring this nation out […]
Watching and praying
As we watch world events, we need to dwell in the peace of Christ.
Can we inaugurate him tomorrow?
I’m watching the keynote speech to the annual conservative CPAC event, given this year by Rep. Allan West of Florida. And man, he is hitting the right buttons. The Left came against West in spades last fall, because they fear him. West is that […]
