THE PRESIDENCY
Obama’s FBI ignored warnings about Ft. Hood shooter – The FBI serves under Attorney General Eric Holder’s Department of Justice. That explains why the FBI was too concerned about political correctness to launch an investigation of Major Hasan, who later killed 13 service members in the 2009 attack at Fort Hood. Despite reading e-mails that indicated Hasan was an extremist, the FBI feared questioning a Muslim member of the military. Read more
Evangelical college joins Catholics in lawsuit – “Wheaton College does not, as Catholics do, view all forms of artificial contraception as immoral. But the list of required services includes “morning after” and “week after” pills that claim the life of an unborn child within days of its conception.” That was enough for Wheaton College to join a Catholic lawsuit on ObamaCare’s intrusion on religious liberty. Read more
Exposing Barack Obama’s attacks on religious freedom – The Religious Freedom Coalition’s advertising campaign to expose President Barack Obama’s attacks on religious freedom enters its third month. Newspaper ads have already run the length of Florida, and are running in North Carolina now.
CONGRESS
Congressman defends Chick-fil-A – The entire media establishment is attacking Dan Cathy for his on-the-record remark that Chick-fil-A is supportive of one man, one woman marriages. Congressman Joe Pitts (R-PA) stepped forward to defend the restaurant chain on Capitol Hill. Read his comments here.
RELIGION AND CULTURE
Video response to Islamic death threats – After a particularly vile death threat aimed at himself and other critics of Islam, Michael Coren has a few words to say about the erosion of free speech and other civil liberties in the West.

Olympics: husband and wife can’t share room – An Australian shooter, Russell Mark, said his wife Lauryn – a fellow competitor – has been told they must room separately during the Olympics. This is bizarre political correctness considering that same-sex couples who are not married don’t seem to have the same problem. My bet: If they were Muslims the accommodation would be made.

Pray for Victory – I have just returned from an extended Middle Eastern trip. During that time I visited facilities we support in Israel as well as Jordan and other areas. As part of the mission trip I visited not only with Christian refugees, but with some Muslims who had been combatants in Syria against the secular government. I learned that the prayers of Islamists are very different from ours. Islamists pray for victory; we pray for safety. Read more
The Syrian situation – As I write this I am looking at dozens of photos of churches in the Homs area of Syria that have been desecrated and destroyed by the “rebel” fighters that are supported by President Barack Obama and Senator John McCain. Without further comment I ask that you view this material and forward it to others. PDF document includes photos.
Vacation in a jihad camp? – Increasing numbers of Muslims in Europe are traveling to Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia and other conflict zones to obtain training in terrorist methods. Read more
