Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness... Matthew 6 (We are to personally and individually seek FIRST the Kingdom of God AND His Righteousness ahead of all else including self and politics. This does not mean however we are to hide our Light or refrain from "reproving the world of sin." Imagine if the Christians who created our Republic did so.)
Tony Evans: Vote should reflect 'Kingdom values' A well-known preacher and Bible teacher says Christians must vote according to Kingdom values, instead of the world's values. Tony Evans recently released a four-part series on how Christians should vote. That series encouraged believers to vote for the party, platform, and person that best reflects the Kingdom of God.
"You have to put those three together and then align them to the Kingdom of
God...so some people are going to highlight certain issues, whereas they will be
different than other people, but still you're thinking Kingdom," he points out. Evans
points out that neither Republicans nor Democrats have a monopoly on Kingdom
values. That is why the Texas pastor says it is important for the body of Christ
to be united after the election, no matter the outcome.
"Our good deeds, along with our good words, will say more than our political
bantering. So if we can engage in something that is for the common good, but at
the same time does not compromise our biblical values, that is what we should be
engaging in," he continues. "[A]nd then we give reason for men to glorify our
Father who is in Heaven, because of the good work we are collectively doing."
Dr. Evans points to the
Church Adopt a School Initiative
which teaches churches how to partner with public schools -- an effort he says
has helped transform more than 60 schools in the Dallas-Fort Worth area and is
spreading nationwide.
Barack Obama “Values Tour” Not Representative of Real American Values - In response to the Barack Obama campaign’s new effort to reach values voters in battleground states the President of the Susan B. Anthony List offered the following statement: “Barack Obama knows his extreme record on abortion doesn’t resonate with everyday American voters, so now he’s trying to soften his image with a so-called ‘values tour,’” said Susan B. Anthony List President Marjorie Dannenfelser. “It is cynical – because religious language without the actions to support it is so transparently empty. If you can’t save one of the ‘least of these’ – a dying baby who survives an abortion – because you see it as a ‘burden,’ one wonders who is really at the heart of your faith. The great ME or the Great I AM.”
Video: Sarah Palin 700 Club Story David Brody - Friday on The 700 Club, my six minute TV piece on Sarah Palin aired nationally. You can watch it above. For all you Sarah Palin critics out there you’ll notice that while we mention some of the controversies surrounding her we really don’t get too much into it. Why? Because the piece set out to focus more on the sensation she’s created and the faith angle rather than other issues.
A Closer Look at Sarah Palin - By David Brody and Robin Mazyck (CBNNews.com) - Hers is a story of an overnight media sensation. Afterall, how often do you see a gun-toting, pro-life Christian, hockey mom of five from Alaska get tapped to be vice-president? Her fans see her as one of their own and that is music to the ears of the McCain campaign. She has single handidly changed the race for President.

Tell the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to defend conscience rights for health care workers. - Beat Planned Parenthood and Defend Conscience Rights September 18, 2008 | Refer a Friend HHS Secretary Michael Leavitt is proposing regulations to enforce current laws that protect the conscience rights of health care workers. Congress has passed three laws (Church Amendments, Coats Amendment, and the Hyde/Weldon Amendment) over the past 35 years protecting such rights; however, no regulations have ever been implemented. If issued, the proposed regulations would ensure that health care workers in programs that receive federal funds, including federal, state and local government programs, do not discriminate against health care workers who object to participating in such practices as abortion and sterilization. We need you to submit public comments to HHS in support of regulations to enforce current law because groups like Planned Parenthood have supplied thousands of comments to HHS opposing any regulations that protect doctors, nurses, pharmacists or others' conscience. The deadline for submitting a comment (which will be viewable by the public) is September 25, 2008.
Sign this petition and notify: No More Bailouts! President George W. Bush Your Congressperson Your Senators As a taxpaying American, I demand an end to the public bailouts of government-sponsored enterprises and private institutions. America's economic success is largely due to our free-market system, in which risk is a fundamental element. Some businesses succeed tremendously, some fail spectacularly. But they should do so on their own, not with the backing of millions of reluctant citizens' paychecks. If troubled institutions seek relief, they should restructure their businesses the way millions of families have had to restructure their budgets, rather than bellying up to Congress' trough. Bailouts that keep mismanaged organizations afloat delay natural corrections to unsound business practices. In the long run, bailouts do not "rescue" anyone because they stall the adoption of necessary reforms that would prevent future repeats of bad choices. Enough is enough. No more bailouts. Not with my tax dollars.
News and commentary (News & Commentary)
Philanthropy in free-market systems - Entrepreneurship. - Heritage's Center for Data Analysis has released an important new report on philanthropy in free-market systems. The report, compiled by Guinevere Nell, James Sherk and Paul Winfree, says that free enterprise works to the benefit of all people because it allows for charitable giving that helps everyone. "Believing that government redistribution of wealth is harmful for the economy does not signify supporting a society where 'You're on your own.' Free markets enable entrepreneurs to become very wealthy—and they often use this wealth to benefit others." Read more on Heritage's Insider Online blog. — David Talbot
Hensarling: “Now is the Time for More American Energy” RSC Chairman Slams Sham Democrat Energy Bill - "I think there are many draws [to Wicca], especially for women," Alupoaicei said. "About two-thirds of Wiccans are women. First of all, Wicca is a very community- oriented religion. As our culture becomes more and more isolated and busy, and as real relationships are replaced by texting, IM, etc., young people are starving for real relationships and true community, as well as for a powerful experience of faith. People want a supernatural experience.
Palestinians Man Phone Bank for Obama - For the past seven months, a group of students and young professionals has gathered nightly to phone U.S. voters and urge them to support Barack Obama in the presidential elections. This would not be at all unusual were it not for the fact that the callers are Palestinians living in the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip.
Sharia Courts Operating in Britain Recognised by British Law By Hilary White - (LifeSiteNews.com) - Rowan Williams, the archbishop of Canterbury and head of the Church of England, said he was shocked at the furor that arose after he told an audience earlier this year that he thought it "seems unavoidable" that some accommodation for Islamic sharia law would be implemented in Britain. However, Williams' statements evidently were prophetic, as a report in the Sunday Times has revealed that the Islamic law is already operating in Britain, not only in domestic disputes, but also in criminal cases.
Malpractice in Massachusetts: How Bay State Policy Undermines Health Reform - This three-year political deal was a promise with a heavy price tag — $200 million the first year, declining by $20 million each year thereafter. In spite of the reform’s intent, Bay State politicians — through a now-infamous “hold harmless” provision — sought to continue direct Medicaid payments with the sole intent of protecting the profits of their political friends. By continuing to pay out more than it should in direct subsidies to hospitals, Massachusetts is now in a $150 million budget bind that recently became the justification for new, unnecessary taxes on businesses. And in negotiations with federal officials over its waiver renewal, the state is asking for more federal money to help solve a budget problem it created entirely on its own. ...Now, no one questions the importance of serving hungry people on the streets of Boston. But that’s not what the Massachusetts health reform was about or what Medicaid dollars are for. BMC’s implication is that the city of Boston, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and the federal government will let people go hungry unless federal taxpayers are coerced to fork over more cash to its institution. Sure, BMC has made a considerable investment expanding its facilities in recent years. But what’s next, defending the payments as a means of mitigating the housing crisis? If Massachusetts politicians want to continue CHA’s and BMC’s special, direct subsidies with state and local dollars, that’s their choice. But they should have to justify it to their constituents. Federal taxpayers should not be required to deliver on the Bay State’s political promises.
ABC Highlights 'Anything but Helpful' Government Healthcare 'Mess' 'Good Morning America' reports on faulty Medicare hotline. - Being a healthcare provider is already difficult when your client base is made up of mostly seniors. But for Medicare the difficulties are even worse because it is a government agency and needs to operate in the midst of “repeated changes in executive management, cumbersome government procure ment and management rules and the vagaries of congressional oversight.” In a speech April 29, Secretary of Health and Human Services Mike Leavitt spoke at a Medicare forum at the Newseum saying, “Time is running out. Medicare is drifting towards disaster.” Leavitt said that the real problems will begin between now and 2019 when the Medicare Hospital Insurance Trust Fund is projected to become “insolvent,” because there is no backup plan to ensure hospitals keep getting paid after that. In 2005, The Heritage Foundation listed Medicare funding as one of their top 10 examples of government waste. “Medicare wastes more money than any other federal program, yet its strong public support leaves lawmakers hesitant to address program effi ciencies,” said a Heritage policy paper written April 4, 2005 by Brian M. Riedl. According to Riedl, Medicare paid as much as eight times what other federal agencies paid for the same drugs and medical supplies back then. After a study was conducted by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) comparing 16 types of medical equipment and supplies used by both Medicare and the Veterans Affairs (VA) health care program, it was found that Medicare paid an average of more than double what the VA paid for the same items.
ACORN Sprouts Voter Fraud – Group Has Ties To Obama Campaign - The Association of Community Organizations for Reform (ACORN), is, once again, involved in voter fraud across the country. ACORN is a socialist group that is an out-growth of New Left politics. The latest scandal involves voter fraud in Detroit, Michigan, where clerks across the state are reporting fraudulent and duplicate voter registration forms submitted by ACORN.According to the Detroit Free Press, the Michigan Secretary of State’s office is receiving complaints from all over the state. The Secretary has turned the phony applications over to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for investigation. ACORN has branches in 100 cities and claims 350,000 families as members. ACORN has a long history of engaging in voter fraud in all 50 states. In the 2006 election cycle, ACORN engaged in fraud in St. Louis, Missouri andKansas City, Missouri. In Kansas City, more than 15,000 registrations were questionable. Four ACORN employees had submitted these 15,000 fraudulent forms with fake names and addresses. ACORN workers have been convicted in Wisconsin and Colorado and investigations were launched in Ohio, Pennsylvania and Tennessee. ...In addition, when Obama was a community organizer in Chicago, he actually helped train ACORNstaff members. National Review author Stanley Kurtz published a detailed expose on the Obama-ACORN connection in May, 2008.According to Kurtz, Obama’s connection to ACORN is long and deep. “Obama not only sought and received the endorsement of ACORN’S political arm in his local campaigns, he recently accepted ACORN’S endorsement for the presidency, in pursuit of which he reminded Acorn officials of his long-standing ties to the group.” said Kurtz. One Chicago-based ACORN leader revealed these deep ties in “Case Study: Chicago – The Barack Obama Campaign” inSocial Policy. Writer Toni Foulkes says that Obama helped train a cadre of Chicago’s ACORN leaders. According to Obama: “I’ve been fighting alongside ACORN on issues you care about my entire career.” (Steven Malanga, “Organizer in Chief,”City Journal, Summer, 2008).

Income Redistribution: Patriotic taxes “We want to take money [from the wealthy] and put it back in the pocket of middle-class people,” Democrat vice-presidential nominee Joe Biden said in an interview this week on ABC’s “Good Morning America.” Talking about the “fundamental differences” between Obama/Biden and McCain/Palin, Biden said that wealthier Americans would indeed pay more taxes. “It’s time to be patriotic... time to jump in, time to be part of the deal, time to help get America out of the rut.” Memo to Joe: The forced redistribution of wealth is socialism, not patriotism. Also, your memory must be failing you. Bill Clinton raised taxes, resulting in lower federal revenue, while George W. Bush lowered taxes, resulting in higher federal revenue. As Barack Obama said in April, however, he wouldn’t raise taxes to increase revenue, but “for the purposes of fairness.” By which he means sticking it to “the rich,” a category that includes most of the small-business owners who generate the majority of our nation’s jobs. Biden released his tax returns this week. The unfortunate man is one of the poorest members of the Senate, having claimed a paltry $248,754 in income in 2007. What is likely more important is that his donations to charity average out to about $2 per week. Compared to the charitable giving of McCain (27 percent) and even Obama (five percent), Biden comes off as a cheapskate—at least with his money. Strange, but this story has somehow escaped Leftmedia analysis. Predictably, they just spit out some of Biden’s income numbers and then turned on GOP vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin, who has not disclosed her income tax returns. At least Biden’s $995 in charitable giving last year was more than Al Gore’s $353 in 1997. Liberals just walking the walk...
OBAMA: LUCIFER IS MY HOMEBOY by Ann Coulter - It's another election season, so that means it's time for Democrats to start uttering wild malapropisms about the Bible to pretend they believe in God! ...For the benefit of MSNBC viewers who aren't watching it as a joke, the whole point of the Declaration of Independence was to lay out the founders' breathtaking new argument that rights came not from the king, but from God or, as the Declaration said, "Nature's God," the "Creator." That summer, in 1776, Gen. George Washington -- a charter member of the founding fathers -- rallied his troops, saying: "The time is now near at hand which must probably determine whether Americans are to be freemen or slaves. ... The fate of unborn millions will now depend, under God, on the courage and conduct of the army." So Washington not only used the phrase "under God," but gave us one of the earliest known references to the rights of the "unborn." That's right! George Washington was a "pro-life extremist," just like Sarah Palin.
What
Obama didn't dispute in my book JEROME CORSI —
The
Obama campaign,
in its 40-page "Unfit for Publication" commentary, alleged my book,
"The
Obama Nation,"contains lies, but as
I
documented in a rebuttal published on WorldNetDaily on Sept. 7, there
is no substance to the allegations. Now the
campaign has failed to respond to my rejoinder, and except for some minor
changes that will be made in the next printing of the book, I assume the Obama
campaign agrees that my rejoinder arguments were convincing. Moreover, I assume
the Obama campaign took its best shot with "Unfit for Publication," refuting
every point in "The Obama Nation" that the Obama campaign considered false. The
result here is the chapter-by-chapter arguments from "The Obama Nation" that
were not disputed in "Unfit for Publication." Because the Obama campaign did not
even attempt to refute these substantive arguments, I now assume the Obama
campaign is conceding their truth.
Keep your eye on the ball: Obama is the issue
WES VERNON, RA ANALYST
— The number one issue in
this presidential campaign is Barack Obama and whether his ascension to the Oval
Office in January will be good for the United States. That is the question. And
the perfect documentation comes in the form of a New York Times bestseller
The Obama Nation... ssue #2: "Change" — the origin of a slogan - The
Obama slogan of "change" was not invented out of thin air. It was derived from
his experiences as an organizer for the Developing Communities Project (DCP) on
Chicago's South Side. Long before Obama was on the scene in the windy city, the
late iconic socialist agitator Saul Alinsky set the tone for community
"organizing" methodology for generations. Obama was hired for the job by one
Jerry Keller, an Alinsky disciple. As Corsi reports, "'Change' for Alinsky
invoked radical socialism and meant the redistribution of wealth. Obama means
the same, but by hiding the reference, he avoids having to be explicit about the
radical goal behind the theme." ...A direct quote from Alinsky in his Rules for
Radicals: "Let us not forget at least an over-the-shoulder acknowledgment to the
very first radical: from all our legends, mythology, and history (and who is to
know where the mythology leaves off and history begins — or which is which), the
first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so
effectively that he at least won his own kingdom — Lucifer." 
Saul Alinsky: the Puppet Master by Burt Prelutsky - Furthermore, has the MSM once mentioned the influential role that the late Saul Alinsky played in the lives of leading Democrats, and how he helped turned the party so far to the left that if men like Harry Truman and John Kennedy came back to life, they would assume the Soviet Union had won the Cold War? Saul Alinsky, who died in 1972, at the age of 63, was a Chicago Marxist. Among his many books was one titled “Rules for Radicals,” in which he explained to his acolytes, “The most effective means are whatever will achieve the desired results.” It took Alinsky 11 words to paraphrase Karl Marx’s far more succinct “The ends justify the means.” ...But it wasn’t just young Ms. Rodham who had a connection to the late, unlamented Saul Alinsky. Thirteen years after the Chicago radical died, a group of his most devoted disciples hired 24-year-old Barack Obama to be a community organizer in South Chicago.
Community Organizer In Chief By INVESTOR'S BUSINESS DAILY - Election '08: Barack Obama claims he worked for a "small group of churches" as a community organizer. In fact, he was hired by a radical Alinskyite group, and Saul Alinsky's own son has outed him.
Sojourning Socialists By INVESTOR'S BUSINESS DAILY - Election '08: Barack Obama has joined forces with a white socialist he calls a "good friend" — the Rev. Jim Wallis, founder of "Sojourners." He too believes in "liberation theology," sans the black nationalism. In fact, Wallis is the white version of Jeremiah Wright, sans the black rage.
The Audacity Of Socialism - Barack Obama has styled himself a centrist, but does his record support that claim? In this series, we examine Senator Obama's past, his voting record and the people who've served as his advisers and mentors over the years. We'll show how the facts of Obama's actions and associations reveal a far more left-leaning tilt to his background — and to his politics.
Indoctrination: "Mainstream" Media, Hollywood,& Education? - (Media, Hollywood, Secular Education) The good, the bad, and the ugly...Without a Heritage every generation starts over Will our descendants know moral virtue? The primary responsibility of education DOES NOT belong to schools. (Deuteronomy 6:5-7)
"A trained intelligence can do much, but there is no substitute for morality, character and religious conviction." President Calvin Coolidge
"Knowledge unenlightened by the truth of God is dark knowledge. We may have a B.S., an M.S., and a Ph.D., but without the Lord all we have is dark information. It may help navigate us in the world of darkness, but by itself will never lead us to the truth. Apart from the revelation of the Spirit of God, none of us could ever find our way into the light. Darkly educated people are like those whom Paul described to his young protégé', Timothy, as 'always learning but never able to acknowledge the truth.'" (2 Timothy 3:7) Rediscovering the Kingdom by Myles Munroe
Obama Ad Smears Rush Limbaugh: Rush Strikes Back Limbaugh reacted to the ads on Wednesday, telling his listeners: “I never said those things … We have this ad in which I am misquoted and impugned… “Even in the heat of the amnesty battle, I never said shut your mouth or get out. “What we have learned is that the usual suspects are behind this. The Media Matters types, the Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting types.” Limbaugh explained the context in which one of his alleged anti-Latino quotes was uttered. “The statement you're a foreigner, shut your mouth and get out, was made, I did say it, but in a parody of Mexican immigration laws in a Morning Update April 6th of 2006.
YouTube Yanks Video Exposing Obama's Abortion Extremism - Operation Rescue posts the video that YouTube does not want the public to see. A video exposing Sen. Barack Obama's extremist support for abortion that was produced by a Kansas pro-life group as been blocked by YouTube.com yesterday. The Kansas Coalition for Life, which partners with Operation Rescue on a number of pro-life projects, produced a video titled "Obama: WRONG Change for Children," which included information about Obama's voting record on abortion- related bills. YouTube sent the group a generic message indicating that the video was being blocked because it did not meet a "Community Guideline." "The video is in no way distasteful, pornographic or outside of the ordinary," said KCFL Director Mark Gietzen. "It does however make a strong point, and we feel that it was pulled ONLY because it makes a simple, clear statement about what Obama's change is all about." ..."Political censorship is the only remaining explanation for YouTube blocking the KCFL Obama video," said Operation Rescue spokesperson Cheryl Sullenger. "Apparently, it is allowable to criticize political candidates on YouTube, as long as you do not criticize Obama on his abortion track record. It is unconscionable for YouTube to engage in this kind of political censorship in the middle of a battle for the future of America. We have posted this video to our web site to ensure that it will be easily accessible." Operation Rescue encourages concerned individuals to contact YouTube.com and ask that they reinstate the KCFL video "Obama: WRONG Choice for Children."

"Politically Correct" - (Politically Correct with PC dictionary) Examples and results of Political Correctness which means using unrighteous deception which lack Biblical Moral Virtue. Remove the Light (Jesus) and darkness (politically correct secular humanism) inevitably ensues.
Barney Frank and the politics of family values - In Frank's mind, liberalism is tantamount to respect and compassion -- conservatism amounts to intolerance and self-righteousness. Barney Frank isn't just another liberal. And he is much more than just an openly gay congressman. He is a powerful legislator who happens to be chairman of the House Financial Services Committee. This makes Frank a central and influential player in government's response to the current mortgage crisis that has rocked our financial markets. The decisions that Frank, a Democrat, makes can put taxpayers on the hook for not just billions, but trillions of dollars. These are decisions that effect our pocketbooks but also our freedom. They influence the size and scope of government in the lives of every American citizen.
Brad Pitt's Homosexual Activism Peaks with $100,000 Donation against Authentic Marriage Amendment By John-Henry Westen - (LifeSiteNews.com) - Brad Pitt, an actor who for many epitomizes the lack of commitment to marriage, has once again taken a shot at marriage as the union of one man and one woman with a major donation to homosexual 'marriage' activists. Pitt announced yesterday that he is donating $100,000 to fight California's Proposition 8, a measure on the November ballot that would enable California voters to retain the definition of marriage as the union of one man and one woman.

Heritage Foundation scholar Joe Postell has helpfully rounded up resources for citizens to learn about the nation's highest law. September 17 is Constitution Day. On this date in 1787, 39 of the original 55 delegates to the Constitutional Convention signed the document that would eventually be ratified and enshrined as our fundamental law. Recently, many have observed the relative decline of civic knowledge among American citizens, and have taken steps to improve our understanding of our fundamental law, the limited government which it creates, and the basic liberties which it is designed to protect.
Study: Homosexual Lifestyle Strongly Linked to Depression, Suicide By Kathleen Gilbert (LifeSiteNews.com) - A new study in the United Kingdom has revealed that homosexuals are about 50% more likely to suffer from depression and engage in substance abuse than the rest of the population, reports Health24.com. After analyzing 25 earlier studies on sexual orientation and mental health, researchers, in a study published in the medical journal BMC Psychiatry, also found that the risk of suicide jumped over 200% if an individual had engaged in a homosexual lifestyle.
