Oh what a tangled web is weaved….

Student Refusing To Praise Allah Quits School After Death Threats – (Video)

Isn’t choir considered an elective in school?  This kid should have the choice of dropping out any time he wants, although it’s the reason he’s dropping out that has this Colorado high school playing defense.  The song contains the phrase,  “There is no other truth but Allah.”  I wonder how the school would feel if the reason this kid refused to sing the song wasn’t because he didn’t want to praise Allah, but rather because he was raised as an atheist?   This morning FOX and Friends reported that James Harper quit school in Grand Junction after receiving death threats.

The Heart Of The Matter… The Billion Dollar Question To Sebelius

During the Senate Finance Committe hearing on the Obama administration’s budget for HHS, Senator Orrin Hatch (R-UT) asked Health & Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius “what religious or Catholic constituencies the administration consulted before announcing its changes to the contraception rule“.  

Her answer was “none”, not one.

So who did the White House and HHS’s Sebelius consult with before announcing one of the most sweeping national healthcare mandates against religous freedom.?  

Planned Parenthood Federation for America CEO Cecile Richards that’s who. 

It’s obvious where their priorities lay. 

Unsustainable Economics….

WASHINGTON, February 16—Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner today admitted under questioning from Sen. Sessions that the president’s own budget is “unsustainable.” Sec. Geithner made a similar admission last year, when he said that “with the president’s plan, even if Congress were to enact it and even if Congress were to hold it and reduce those deficits to three percent of GDP over the next five years, we would still be left with a very large interest burden and unsustainable obligations over time.”

Testifying before the House Budget Committee today, U.S. Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner told Chairman Paul Ryan the following: (more…)

Ron Pauls’ Pathway To Power ….

I have been reluctant to share this possibility, because I did not want to fertilize the seeds of the Paulbots….. but it is now time to share.

Let me be perfectly clear.   I do not believe for one second that Ron Paul actually wants to be President.   Everything throughout the course of his life, and everything he has said and done points to his desire to be “in control” but not actually being president.   Indeed, I would argue that Ron Paul is happiest arm-chair quarterbacking everything from a comfortable distance, but not actually being the executive decision maker.   It is how he has led throughout his political career.   He recoils instantaneously when told to “actually lead”, *it is not in his DNA.

*Note* If you hold a counter opinion feel free to provide substance to back it up.  I’m open to being convinced otherwise, but I just don’t see it. (more…)
