Borrowing context from the writing of Rev Billy Graham there is something to be learned from the direct confrontation of evil. The primary video of Democrat Rep. Alvin Holmes needs a backdrop reference.
(pg 64 Satan on the Attack) […] Revelation 12:10 speaks of Satan as “the accuser of the brethren”, and Ephesians 6:12 describes the “rulers, the authorities, the powers of the dark world, the spiritual forces of evil present in the heavenly realms.”
Although the warfare as described references the heavens, it is an obvious principle the primary endeavor is to destroy faith in the world.
From Isaiah 13:12-14 the objectives are outlined – though we can assign a collective disposition to current influence: “[they] work to bring the downfall of nations, to corrupt moral standards, and to waste human resources. Corrupting society’s order, [they] want to prevent the attainment of order and to shake the kingdoms of our God”.
Evil, and in a larger sense the influences comfortable with immoral manifest, has great power. They are cunning and clever, having set themselves against God and His people: (more…)
This undercover video is brilliant. James O’Keefe creates a sting where he is willing to finance an anti-fracking movie for Hollywood environmentalists. His approach is to use a fictitious character named Muhammad who will only finance the film under the agreement the film’s intent must be to undermine U.S. energy independence.
The Hollywood crew consisting of Ed Begley Jr, Mariel Hemingway, and producers Josh and Rebecca Tickell are totally willing to disguise the source of the funding, and they each agree to conspire to undermine the U.S. Energy Economy.
“I’m here to say on behalf of the president what I hope you already know: You can count on us. Period. We do what we say, and we mean what we say.”
Well, unless you’re talking about Iran (Green Revolution we let get wiped out), Egypt (where we hurried in the rise of the Muslim Brotherhood), Syria (and that whole “red line” thingy), Iran again (the sanctions lifted so they can have a nuke), Israel (the target of the Iranian nuke), Ukraine (they really didn’t need the whole Crimea thing), Canada (and that pesky on-again/off-again election year keystone issue), South Korea (as we watch N-Korea fire missiles at them). Other than that, you can count on us. Maybe…..
Hey now,… “if you like your country – you can keep your country”. “Period”.
(Via The Hill) Vice President Biden on Tuesday sought to reassure Romania that the U.S. would defend its borders amid concerns that Russia’s incursion into Ukraine could spread into other parts of Eastern Europe.
“I’m here to say on behalf of the president what I hope you already know: You can count on us. Period,” Biden said while touring a Romanian air base. “We do what we say, and we mean what we say.”
The borders of Romania, which, like Ukraine, is a former Soviet republic, lie less than 250 miles from Crimea, the peninsula annexed by Moscow earlier this year. (more…)
A Progressive Middle School in Rhode Island cancelled an Honors Night event to celebrate academic achievement because it rewards success, which they say is too “exclusive“.
The public calls them out – they reverse course, or well, try too, and fail miserably. Here’s the announcement and the walk back. You decide:
Dear Cole Families,
We would like to take this opportunity to notify you of a change to our annual spring events at Cole [Middle School]. Honors Night has been a longstanding tradition in our community — one that was created in the Cole Junior High School era.
Members of the school community have long expressed concerns related to the exclusive nature of Honors Night. Therefore, we have made the collective decision to recognize students during team-based recognition ceremonies and graduation. This will afford us the opportunity to celebrate the individual and collective successes of all students and their effort, progress, and excellence.
Additionally, our Cole varsity athletes will receive their medals and trophies at an after school ceremony.
Best wishes for a nice weekend.
Kindest regards,
Alexis Meyer and Dan Seger (Principal and Vice-Principal)
OK, you getting this? Because it’s too “exclusive” to honor the top performers they cancelled the event in favor of an ‘everybody equal’ ceremony.
What do they do next ? They tell everyone they didn’t communicate the change well enough. GASLIGHTING ALERT !
“Wedges are nice, but I prefer the modern spring look of current gladiator sandals. Well, as long as the buckles don’t contrast too much in the mid ankle“. No, no, no Clay… it’s veterans’ “scandals”, s-c-a-n-d-a-l-s… Not “sandals”…
When asked about the VA scandal Democrat Clay Aiken says he was not “privy to that stuff“.
“That stuff” being the open and public congressional hearing last week… I mean it’s not like Fort Bragg is in your representative district or anything. No, wha… wait…
Eight Charleston, South Carolina, High School Students arrested. The adult suspects ranged from 17 to 19 years old.

Here’s a local print media recap
…”Codified segregation of public schools has been barred since Brown. But in too many of our school districts, significant divisions persist and segregation has reoccurred – including zero-tolerance school discipline practices that, while well-intentioned and aimed at promoting school safety, affect black males at a rate three times higher than their white peers”…
– Attorney General Eric Holder, May 17th 2014 [Graduation Commencement Address Morgan University]
Question for PROGS: Then why grade ?
Within your ideological stupidity – If there is no differentiation between the assimilated drone mind that must be just as good as, but no better than, the standard deviation, then why even grade the kids? Might as well just pass out collective distribution diplomas.
CONNECTICUT – Middle School Cancels Honors Night – The notice was sent to parents over the weekend in an e-mail signed by School Principal Alexis Meyer and Assistant Principal Dan Seger.
Citing concerns about the “exclusive nature” of the annual honors night at Archie R. Cole Middle School, school officials have decided to scrap the tradition.
Instead, students who would normally be recognized at the annual spring tradition will be honored during team-based recognition ceremonies and graduation. (more…)
A Doctor’s Concern – The lawsuit stems back to an incident that occurred on May 22, 2011. A psychiatrist, Dr. Michelle Bentle, phoned police to report that a patient had expressed a suicidal thought during an outpatient appointment; the woman had received some bad news and privately expressed grief during a difficult appointment.
At approximately noon, Milwaukee Police were dispatched to search for Krysta Sutterfield, age 42 at the time, in order to forcibly detain her and commit her for a mandatory medical evaluation. In Wisconsin, the mere suggestion of suicide is grounds for forcible police detention.
Police had a description of Ms. Sutterfield’s vehicle but could not immediately locate her; police checked her garage and it was empty. Hours passed. At 2:45 p.m., Dr. Bentle notified police that her patient “had called her some minutes earlier stating that she was not in need of assistance and that the doctor should ‘call off’ the police search for her,” according to court documents.

WASHINGTON DC – Sounding a new aggressive tone, first lady Michelle Obama vowed in a private conference call on Monday to fight industry efforts at rolling back healthy school-lunch standards, an issue that could come up for a vote on Capitol Hill later this week.
The remarks to health activists were made in an off-the-record conference call at the beginning of a week of intense lobbying around proposed changes in the national school-lunch program, which sets standards for fat, sugar and sodium levels in food.
“I was thrilled that the first lady pulled advocates together this morning and sounded such a strong rallying cry to fight back against efforts to weaken the school food standards,” said Margo Wootan, who lobbies on Capitol Hill and elsewhere on behalf of the Center for Science in the Public Interest.
