SALT LAKE CITY 17 November 2009 An informed citizenry, it is often said, is the bulwark of democracy. The basic principles of journalistic integrity – objectivity in reporting, detachment from personal bias, and disinterested duty to the truth – are essential in facilitating public trust and civil discourse. All individuals and institutions, including churches, share [...] There are more histrionics on display in the two-minute trailer (see below)for the pro-gay-marriage ”documentary,” 8: The Mormon Proposition, than in all the episodes of Oprah I can remember seeing. Call me paranoid. I can’t help but feeling that we latter day saints are being set up for something. The Obama Administration is pushing forward with its agenda, which appears to include nationalization of banks, nationalization of the major players in the manufacturing sector, nationalization of health care, and the further liberalization of laws on [...] The same people who bombard us with ads for products that promise to prevent hardened arteries or encourage hardening elsewhere will soon be selling you Obamacare.“If you experience doubts about the plan lasting more than four hours, seek immediate help from Organizing for America.” “Reproductive choice has to be straightened out,” Ginsburg said. “There will never be a woman of means without choice anymore. That just seems to me so obvious. The states that changed their abortion laws before Roe (to make abortion legal) are not going to change back. So we have a policy that only affects poor [...] Gore admitted that it was difficult to persuade the public that the threat from climate change was as urgent as the threat from Nazi Germany. Republicans in the U.S. have, in recent years, turned ever more to the cost arguments against climate legislation. That’s made sense in light of the economic crisis. If Speaker Nancy Pelosi fails to push through her bill, it will be because rural and Blue Dog Democrats fret about the economic ramifications. Yet if the rest [...] Just before the election, Glenn Beck played this clip by a prophet, seer and revelator. 8 months later it seems the fruit is about to fall. Last November, Jay Pimentel began hearing that people in his neighborhood were receiving letters about him. Pimentel lives in Alameda, Calif., a small, liberal-leaning community hanging off Oakland into the San Francisco Bay. Pimentel, who is a Mormon, had supported Proposition 8, the ballot initiative banning same-sex marriage. And that made him a target. “Dear [...] Sperling said in prepared testimony that the administration believes compensation practices “must be better aligned with long-term value and prudent risk management at all firms, and not just for the financial services industry.” Asked if he had spoken to the President, Wright said: “Them Jews aren’t going to let him talk to me. I told my baby daughter, that he’ll talk to me in five years when he’s a lame duck, or in eight years when he’s out of office. … “I want to again remind you of your responsibility to preserve the righteousness of America. I have reviewed 4,000 years of history, declaring this to be a land of promise, chosen of the Lord for his special purposes. Now we must deal with America ’s future. The land must continue to remain strong and great [...] Beck said that the Republican party needs leadership, and he defines Huntsman as too moderate. “The Republican Party needs to stand for something and not “democrat lite” not “progressive lite,” said Beck Hey Gang, see what PRAVDA is saying about Barry, Harry and Nancy’s plan…. As more states take up the debate on same-sex marriage, some advocates of legalization are taking a very specific lesson from California, where The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints dominated both fundraising and door-knocking to pass a ballot initiative that barred such unions. While Americans have become increasingly likely to believe that the law should not discriminate against gay individuals and gay couples, the public still seems reluctant at this point to extend those protections to the institution of marriage. Public support for gay marriage appears to have stalled in the last two years, even as the gay [...] One might wonder what the heck a photo of gays has to do with a church burning down? The answer seems to be that the Washington Post doesn’t seem to think there is any time that isn’t suitable to attack the Mormon Church over its opposition to gay marriage. They turned this simple story of [...] “It’s a little strange to feel like we’re part of a grandfathered minority,” said Leanne Waldal, 38, wiping away tears after the ruling was announced. Waldal and her wife were married in Canada in 2007 and again in California in October. “I hoped they wouldn’t invalidate our marriage, but I would rather be part of [...] The movement toward legalizing same-sex marriage in New Hampshire has hit a bump. Gov. John Lynch, a Democrat, said last week that he would sign a same-sex marriage bill only if it included new language expanding protection for religious institutions that might object to same-sex marriage. On Wednesday, the state’s House of Representatives rejected that [...] According to Judge Sotomayor, if your state or city bans all guns the way Washington, D.C. did, that’s okay under the Constitution. Terrorist watch lists came under fire last month after a Department of Homeland Security report warned that right wing extremist groups may be expanding their membership in the midst of current economic upheaval. While the report stated that such groups were not believed to be planning any terrorist attacks, it went on to state they [...] This week, thousands of people are getting stimulus checks in the mail. The problem is that a lot of them are dead. Anyone, said T.S. Eliot, could carve a goose, were it not for the bones. And anyone could govern as boldly as his whims decreed, were it not for the skeletal structure that keeps civil society civil — the rule of law. The Obama administration is bold. It also is careless regarding constitutional values and is [...] Snyder noted “there are 90 million gun owners in the United States. That’s tens of millions more people than voted for Obama last November. They own 200 million handguns, rifles and shotguns. Sales of firearms and ammunition are soaring even during this suffering economy. Data from the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) [...] YouTube – Glenn beck This is The begining of The Civilist war. |
