Academic Freedom . . . Ah the Stench of Liberal Liberty!

Bowdoin College in Maine has joined the slowly-but-surely expanding list of institutions of higher learning that now define "freedom" in terms of tyranny and tolerance (so-called).

Thanks Candice Cameron Bure . . . For Nothing

Candice Cameron Bure, of childhood stardom, has been an outspoken believer in Jesus Christ for decades now. She has published books, and is respected among conservative Christian circles.

Where Your Treasure Is . . .

President Obama just made public his new budget proposal. I'm not an economist.

They now accept boys who are active homosexuals, but do not allow adult leaders who are active homosexuals to serve. But, if we have learned anything from our US Military, we know where this journey is going to end.

Will the Boys Follow the Girls?

I just read an intriguing article on the "surprising" success of the American Heritage Girls (AHG). The organization was founded 17 years ago by Patti Garibay after she became disgruntled by the Girls Scouts of America's obvious turn towards secular-liberal and even godless causes.

Media Bias

Hey, did you catch what made the nightly news a few days ago on NBC, CBS and / or ABC? Apparently there was a massive pro-gun control protest in Washington, D.C. Massive anti-gun forces rolled out for it and these three big news networks made sure their camera's were rolling.
