THE PRESIDENCY
OBAMA: PIPELINE TOO DANGEROUS – We have all seen those haunting photos of starving kids in Africa that organizations such as Feed the Children use to raise money. Try to picture American kids looking like that. Most African poverty is caused by a lack of cheap energy. There is no power to drill wells; no power to transport water; no diesel for farming tractors; no gas for cooking; and no electricity to refrigerate and store food. An energy poor nation is a starving nation. By refusing to meet the energy needs of the American people, President Barack Obama and his leftist supporters are pointing the nation toward poverty and starvation. Obama’s refusal to increase Canadian oil imports by denying a permit for the Keystone pipeline is an epoch disaster for the American people.
SANTORUM’S SURPRISE – The day Gov. Rick Perry dropped out of the race, Fox News commentators said it was really bad news for Santorum because he would now finish last behind Ron Paul. The final polls showed Rick Santorum at 9%, but on election day he nearly doubled that, decidedly defeating Ron Paul. After the departure of Michele Bachmann and Rick Perry, the only consistent conservative left in the GOP primary race is Rick Santorum. Both Gov. Mitt Romney and former Speaker Newt Gingrich had supported the same medical insurance mandates as Barack Obama. Gingrich appeared in a TV ad with radical leftist Nancy Pelosi promoting “green energy.” As for Ron Paul, his foreign affairs views are to the far left of Barack Obama’s.
THE GINGRICH DISASTER – This update was released late Saturday to include the results of the South Carolina GOP primary. Newt Gingrich, riding high on his attacks on the media, received 41% of the vote. The problem with this is that Newt Gingrich’s views change literally by the minute and he has held far more positions on both sides of the issues than has Gov. Mitt Romney. Because I am a Washington insider and because I do know Newt Gingrich well, I can say with clarity that if he is the Republican nominee for president Barack Obama will win a second term and the Republicans will lose control of the House and drop seats in the Senate. During a second Obama term the pro-life movement will be crushed using Obama Care and the United States will become a welfare state. Religious freedom as we know it will end, with the government controlling who is hired and fired by the church and dictating what can be said from the pulpit.
RELIGION AND CULTURE
AMERICAN MUSLIM CHILDREN TAUGHT HATE – Muslim children attending mosques and Islamic schools are being taught to hate America, our government, our military personnel, and America’s non Muslim population. The following article identifies three significant mosques in America that are leading the way in teaching Muslim children to hate and to influence them to commit violent acts inside our country. The report prepared by Dave Gaubatz, a former federal agent, is astonishing. Read more
PASTORS ARRESTED IN NYC – Forty-three people including pastors were arrested in the Bronx on the 13th for protesting the ban on churches renting schools for meetings. New York City is the only school district in the nation that refuses to rent auditoriums to religious groups, but it will rent them to atheists and communists. Most congregations that rented space before the ban are minority evangelicals. Read more

INTERNATIONAL
DEATH TOLL RISES IN NIGERIA – The death toll following coordinated bomb attacks by the Boko Haram in Kano, Nigeria on Friday and Saturday is now over 162 officially, with bodies still in the streets. Kano is mainly Muslim and the largest city in the north. The Islamic terror group Boko Haram claimed responsibility, saying the attacks were in reprisal for the government refusal to release terrorists held in jail. Police and Christians were the main targets as Islamic violence sends that nation into a state of chaos. Read more
PAKISTAN SEIZES CHURCH HOSPITAL – United Christian Hospital in Liberty Chowk and other church property in Garden Town have been seized by local government officials in Pakistan. The province of Punjab has become a living hell for Christians as another church in Garhi Shahu has been desecrated and demolished. Secretary of State Clinton has nothing but kind words to say about Pakistan and our government gives that nation billions of dollars a year. Read more
EXTREME EGYPT – The final results are in, and Islamic extremists have won 75% of the seats in the new parliament. Previously the religious parties such as the Muslim Brotherhood were outlawed. President Barack Obama led the charge to have the secular government replaced during the “Arab Spring” that was supposed to bring freedom. What it may well bring is the total elimination of rights for women and religious police to enforce Sharia law upon all, including Christians.
