THE PRESIDENCY
Hate America? Attend the DNC Convention – The Democratic Party is sanctioning a Muslim prayer event in conjunction with its nominating convention in Charlotte that will feature a radical Islamic leader who has called for the overthrow of the “filthy” U.S. government and establishment of Islamic law. “Jumah at the DNC” is being presented by the Bureau of Indigenous Muslim Affairs, or BIMA, from Aug. 31 to Sept. 1.

GOP Senator on Islamic immigration – In Tampa this week I spoke with a Senator who posed this question: “Why are we giving Iraqis refugee status after we installed a democracy there?” He said that 60,000 have come to the United States as refugees and most are on welfare and in government housing. Two of those in Kentucky were recently arrested for trying to buy Stinger missiles to shoot down airliners. One of those two had fingerprints that matched those found on an IED that killed US servicemen in 2005. He pointed out the Obama Administration has made it even easier for illegals to come to the United States not just from Mexico, but from all nations, including Iran.
Ads tell truth about Obama – The Religious Freedom Coalition has been conducting an aggressive campaign to stop the war on religious freedom being waged by the Obama Administration. During this critical year of decision the Religious Freedom Coalition will run advertisements in key newspapers asking Congress to curtail Barack Obama’s secularist agenda of radically changing our nation.

CONGRESS
Both Houses in recess – The House will reconvene on Monday, September 10th with the first vote occurring after 6:30 PM. Although the media would like to portray any recess as a “vacation,” that is far from the truth. Most congressmen work six days a week in their district offices, meeting with constituents. Each congressman has more than a quarter of a million people in his or her district, many of whom demand direct contact which they can’t get when the congressman is in Washington, DC.
New Report on hostility to faith in USA – The Liberty Institute, a nonprofit religious liberty law firm, was joined by the Family Research Council (FRC) in releasing The Survey of Religious Hostility in America, a valuable report that documents more than 600 incidents of hostility towards religion. The report focuses primarily on cases from the last 10 years and includes categories such as attacks on religious liberty in the public arena, attacks on religious liberty at the schoolhouse, and attacks against churches and ministries. The full report is available here.
79 Congressmen file briefs against HHS Mandate – A number of Members of the Congressional Prayer Caucus joined the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) in submitting amicus curiae briefs in 12 religious liberty lawsuits opposing the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) mandate that violates the religious freedom of scores of individuals. The briefs underscore America’s rich legacy of accommodating the religious beliefs and practices of its citizens, and explain that unless the mandate is altered or overturned, it will force many religious individuals and organizations to directly violate their religious beliefs. You can track all the religious liberty lawsuits filed against the HHS mandate here.

Afghanistan – “Friendly” killings of US servicemen – In the past two weeks at least nine Americans have been killed by their Afghan allies in what is known as “insider killings.” Members of the Afghan army, having been trained and armed by NATO forces, are turning their weapons in increasing numbers against their foreign allies, killing at least 40 NATO troops this year so far. My good friend Dr. Mark Durie discloses the real reasons for the killings and it is not “foreign spies.” Read more
