Benghazi lies: High Crimes and misdemeanors?

The strategic sense, once second nature to Americans steeped in Christian prudence, had many advantages. Since Christ identified the adversary as the Father of Lies, lying was to be expected, particularly from those whose life’s ambition focuses on “the kingdoms of the world and their glory.” (Matthew 4:8) This expectation of deceit meant that Christian [...]

As rights are unalienable, the battle for right can never be surrendered

“Conservative talk-show host Rush Limbaugh said Thursday that those who support same sex marriage have already won the culture war. ‘This issue is lost,’ Limbaugh said. ‘I don’t care what the Supreme Court does, this is now inevitable—and it’s inevitable because we lost the language on this.’”
In the last little while Rush Limbaugh has talked [...]

The Suicide of Self-government

[This is a comment from one of my Facebook readers,  with my reply. It  was occasioned by my last post entitled "Bullying 'bible thumpers', O'Reilly rejects God-endowed rights".]
THE COMMENT: The states should decide. It’s not a federal issue. Look at what has happened to the Bill of Rights every time Congress thinks they have a [...]

Why De Facto Government (Tyranny) is replacing the Constitution

In my WND column today I apply the logic of America’s founders to the Constitutional issue raised by Obama’s refusal to defend the DOMA signed into law during the Clinton era. Like the partial birth abortion ban from roughly the same period, the law may have been a political ploy, intended to provide cover for [...]

Restoring America’s principles: How 9th Amendment rights are key.

[For reference, this is my WND column, published last Friday]
The headline said “Meese promotes Returning America to Founding Principles.”
Former Attorney General Edwin Meese told CPAC 2013 attendees that the best approach for the country’s future is one that emphasizes returning to the original principles that built America, as opposed to the more powerful centralized government [...]

Rubio at CPAC: a Judas kiss for Declaration principle?

 Judas…drew near to Jesus to kiss him, but Jesus said to him, “Judas would you betray the Son of Man with a kiss? (Luke 22:48)
I read an article some months ago entitled “Marco Rubio: a politician of principle.” Its author quoted from a speech Rubio gave to the 2012 Susan B. Anthony list Gala in [...]

The GOP Farce Continues

“La Commedia è finita! The farce is ended.” So says the clown at the end of Leoncavallo’s famous Italian opera. The U.S. Senate has voted to confirm John Brennan as Director of the Central Intelligence Agency. Brennan is well known for his sympathy with the terrorism-infused Muslim Brotherhood, and his careless attitude toward the Constitutional [...]

Is this liberty’s greatest domestic enemy?

FOR THE LORD’S DAY
This week included Lincoln’s birthday. It is therefore a good context in which to consider the relationship between America’s liberty and its obligation to God. We find an allusion to this relationship in the thought Lincoln expresses in this passage, taken from his 2nd Inaugural Address:
If we shall suppose that American slavery [...]

A timely call to educate the militia- from December, 1999

[While working on the next installment of the series about the proper response to the Newtown massacre, I reread this article , which first appeared on WorldNetDaily (now WND).com on December 17, 1999. It stuck me that I could have re-posted it here on December 17, 2012, as a timely response to the tragic events [...]
