The left is obsessed with skin color and genitalia.
Just stop taking federal money and tax exemptions. Is it really that difficult? And everyone knows Obama follows no God but rather sees himself as we identify a communist government.... Stupid article.
The above is the problem we face. This country already feels like a pressure cooker. Something is either going to snap, or we slooooowly fix this country and provide people with the chance to succeed again on their own with Government out of the way (an up hill battle that will take a couple decades at least). I don't see us having two decades with the debt we are in.
Why would BO be so obsessed with queers except that he is one?
Ha! It appears government money turns everyone into liberals.
The next President can take down his EO with a stroke of a pen, but won’t
Homos are the spearpoint of the agenda to criminalize Christianity.
The author needs to start from this premise, that Obama and his ilk are intent on criminalizing Christian beliefs,
and all his questions will be answered from there.
As for Muslims discriminating against homos, well, laws are meant to be selectively enforced by the elite who know better,
right?
They’ll just turn a blind eye to Muslims discriminating against gays, because, as I’ve stated, there’s another agend.
Which one?

Regarding not having two decades, I really like this example:
“Imagine a magic pipette. It is magic because every drop of water that comes out of it will double in size every minute. So the first minute there is one drop, the second minute there are two drops, the third minute four drops, the fourth minute eight drops and so on… This is an example of exponential growth. Now, imagine a normal sized football stadium. In this stadium you are sitting on the seat at the very top of the stadium, with the best overview of the whole stadium. To make things more interesting, imagine the stadium is completely water-tight and that you cannot move from your seat. The first drop from the magic pipette is dropped right in the middle of the field, at 12pm. Here’s the question: Remembering that this drop grows exponentially by doubling in size every minute, how much time do you have to free yourself from the seat and leave the stadium before the water reaches your seat at the very top? Think about it for a moment. Is it hours, days, weeks, months?
“The answer: You have exactly until 12:49pm. It takes this tiny magic drop less than 50 minutes to fill a whole football stadium with water. This is impressive! But it gets better: At what time do you think the football stadium is still 93% empty? Take a guess.
“The answer: At 12:45pm. So, you sit and watch the drop growing, and after 45 minutes all you see is the playing field covered with water. And then, within four more minutes, the water fills the whole stadium. This means that you think you are safe because it seems that you have plenty of time left, whereas due to the exponential growth you really have to take immediate action if you want to have any chance of getting out of this situation.”
I think we are in that situation but the doubling is every year, not every minute. And I think we are at around 12:47.
Picture of a big fat mistake.
They were on another tip of an iceberg at Murrieta.
They were going to send in force, but decided the “optics” would be against them.
The press reported Murrietta thinking that the public would be against those “nasty, racist Tea Party protesters”, but it didn’t work out that way.
Jarrett & company are probably already at work on “payback” for the good people of Murrieta.
Very good point.
Something is definitely afoot and the water is getting quite high (reference to my previous post).
The Church is not taking Federal money. The only thing that used to get some support was Catholic Charities, which actually had a lot of agencies in a lot of places essentially doing the work that local jurisdictions either couldn’t or wouldn’t do.
Many Catholics stopped contributing to Catholic Charities long ago, and actually, it’s come full circle, because now the “Catholic” in their name doesn’t get them money from Catholics but it also virtually excludes them from getting Federal money for a lot of the good programs they used to run (such as adoption, etc.) because the newer more orthodox bishops have forbidden them to adopt to gays and do many other things that they would otherwise be doing. This funding was not in the form of direct grants, but for running programs for the disadvantaged or persons in crisis.
It’s a bad thing in many ways; Planned Parenthood wanted the Church driven out of the adoption business so that they could tell girls there was no option to abortion, and as usual, PP got what it wanted.
Catholic Charities is barely Catholic. Subsisting on Obama money, while remaining open to private donations from the well meaning makes for odd bedfellows and possibly a fine slush fund operation.
Are charities a charity when propped up by government and serving its political interests?
Yeah, there was a column after Bunkerville wherein the leftist author just could not fathom “making the federal government back down”.
It was an interesting insight into the statist mindset.
It was as if some definition had been violated,
like making God “back down”. (yes, leftists substitute the state for God)
Just as Boehner has no plans to defund the Unconstitutional acts of Obama, it is likely that a future President, Democrat or Rino, will not cancel Obama’s EOs. These EOs will give them the same power as Obama.
Catholic Charities has no more do do with the Catholic Church than their name
That’s it.
