Ah, a British paper just pooh poohed the British victory at the Battle of Agincourt, saying that Prince Hal was not outnumbered 4 to 1, merely outnumbered 2 to 1.
Actually, the author misses the point, which is that the elite knights of France got slowed down by the mud and were massacred by ordinary British […]

Using a slight of hand and having his propaganda mill obscure what has been done, the Democrats and the Obama administration are planning to fund abortion in their health care bill.
The original “compromise” on abortion was a slight of hand that would force people to pay for abortion coverage themselves, similar to the way you […]

According to the Associated Press, Planned Parenthood plans to close five of its clinics in the state of Indiana in anticipation of a shortage in federal funding for the nonprofit organization. The clinics are located in Anderson, Franklin, Kokomo, northwest Indianapolis and Shelbyville.
The Indiana Family Health Council will begin distributing the funds for Title XX. […]

I have seen a growing number of liberal articles being printed which attempt to paint conservative Christians as hippocrites for opposing the healthcare reform bill. Let me first say that I am overjoyed that modern day liberals could take the time out of their busy day to find and crack open a bible, but am […]

But if we fail, then the whole world … will sink into the abyss of a new Dark Age made more sinister … by the lights of perverted science.

President Obama wants to get health care reform accomplished by the first week of August. Although there are many substantial issues which are unclear, central to the debate is the role of abortion as a covered benefit. While the nation has been focusing on health care, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg recently gave readers […]

The headline of an Opinion column written by JAMES KIRCHICK, in the latest Wall Street Journal (linked below) reads: “The Religious Right Didn’t Kill George Tiller.” Of course that’s an accurate statement but the underlying sentiment — the “story” in the piece — is that anti-abortion activists are completely blameless and that’s absurd.
When you use […]

Friday I listened into a conversation on the Laura Ingram radio show; she was interviewing a legal expert (also a Conservative Republican) and discussing Barack Obama’s stated preferences for his upcoming nomination of a justice to replace Justice David Souter who has announced he’ll be retiring at the end of this Supreme Court session.
Ms. Ingram […]

I am aghast that the so called “catholic Democrats” are dismissing Professor Glendon as a conservative.
Actually, she is not a conservative. Even the New York Times noted that she is considered one of the founders of the Communitarian movement, a group that has long been associated with the Democratic party.
So, what is a communitarian?
Well, in […]

One thing that can be said for President Obama, he certainly is making it difficult for the American Catholic Left to maintain its charade of being actually Catholic.
From the battle of Notre Dame, to the Bishop’s being exposed for directing millions in congregational contributions to ACORN, to the […]

Luckily for me, I retired from medicine just in time.
If the Obama administration has it’s way, I would be fired for not giving out abortion pills.
Because quietly, the adminstration has released a proposal to remove HHS regulations recently added by the Bush administration that reinforced the 1964 Civil Rights act that said companies could not […]

Only last week, David Brooks was praising President Obama, and actually cited the fact that he allowed Dr. Mark Dybul to stay as an example of Obama’s bilateral approach to government:
Dybul is one of those heroes one meets too rarely in government. He worked as an AIDS doctor in San Francisco in the 1980s and […]

From Churchill’s Parrot blog.
After years of unabashed advocacy of the DNC agenda, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops are now scrambling to prevent the Democrat Congress and the Obama Administration from making the most radical pro-abortion legislation in history, the law of the land.
Already stunned by Mr. Obama’s unblinking revocation of the Mexico […]

I guess I got out of the Federal government’s health system just in time.
Obama has stopped the implementation of protections for medical workers who oppose abortion.
It won’t get headlines, however: the headlines say “White House stops pending Bush Regulations for Review”

M.I.T. graduate Will Bradshaw is co-founder and President of Green Coast Enterprises, using innovative procedures to rebuild New Orleans homes devastated by Katrina. He is pro-life. He is voting for Barack Obama.
When Bradshaw describes himself as “pro-life,” he is speaking about an issue that goes beyond the simplistic code word that usually refers only […]

John McCain is depending on Palin power to generate the kind of grass roots swell that delivers an upset November 4Th. Even GOP insiders admitted prior to Palins selection, the party strategy was to sandbag downstream and retain as many house and senate seats as possible in the face of an inevitable Obama landslide.

Whether it is true or not, that several high ranking democratic party insiders and senior Obama-Biden campaign staffers are privately expressing a sense of growing anxiety over the popularity of Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin.

Ms. Steinem: That chromosome AK Gov. Sarah Palin and NY Sen. Hilary Clinton share is the same one that you and Palin - and all women - share as well.

After John McCain chose Sarah Palin as his Vice Presidential candidate and claimed to have known in advance that her 17-year old daughter Bristol was pregnant, I was having coffee with a Downtown Eastside friend and said, “What would Dr. Laura think?”.

As a liberal Christian I was content to blog about the need to debate Governor Palin’s conservative ideals and leave personality and character attacks at the door. At first glance she impressed me as one of the few evangelicals in national politics who actually seemed to practice what she preaches. I may utterly disagree with her politics but I can respect her sincerity and accomplishment for having stood up […]

Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson notes that Spike Lee has taken to “grandiloquently divid[ing] American history into two epochs, “B.B.” and “A.B.” - Before Barack and After Barack.” With John McCain’s selection of AK Gov. Sarah Palin as his running mate, Obama went from making history to being history in the span of 12 hours.

I am not sure if I was the only commentator, of a liberal bent, who welcomed John McCain’s securing of the Republican Party’s nomination for President.

Well, Nancy Pelosi put her foot into it. When asked on “Meet the Press” about abortion, she quoted St. Augustine out of context to prove Catholics once did not consider the fetus a full human, implying that her support of abortion on demand up until the fetus was partially born was moral, and the bishops […]

In a brilliant move clearly aimed at appeasing the Christian Far Right, John McCain stunned the political world by announcing that Bigfoot will be his vice presidential choice. The surprise announcement brought unified praise from Bush/Cheney Republicans, Pavlovian evangelical extremists, and knuckle-dragging pundits in what is being dubbed a bold political stroke.
Rush Limbaugh expressed mild […]
