UTOPIA Have you read the April 14th edition of the Chairman's Report that features the Utopian philosophy that is destroying the United States and the rest of the West? Drawing on my own past experience growing up in a Marxist home, and exploring the literary example of Thomas More's Of the republic's best state and the island of Utopia I seek to explain why liberals are in such denial of reality. I urge you to print out copies of this edition of the Chairman's Report and to share it with others. Click here to read or print PDF.

THE PRESIDENCY

THE GREAT SATAN AND THE LITTLE SATAN - President Barak Obama has bought the big lie. I have heard the lie on numerous occasions as I have traveled on fact finding missions in Islamic nations. The lie is simply this: "We hate America only because America supports Israel's persecution of Palestinians. If America will allow a Palestinian state and 'return' Jerusalem to the Palestinians, then our hatred for America will stop." But wait: In virtually every Islamic pulpit in the world America is the "big Satan" and Israel is the "little Satan." If the "big Satan" turns against the "little Satan," will the "big Satan" suddenly be loved? Of course not. Islamic hatred for America has to do with the core belief in Islam that democracy is an apostate religion that must be destroyed. This is taught in Islamic schools from the capital of Saudi Arabia to the Islamic Academy just outside Washington, DC. The destruction of the "little Satan" is just a step toward the destruction of the "big Satan." But, Obama has bight the lie. He truly believes that handing over half of Jerusalem to Muslims will somehow make Osama Bin Laden love America, and that the Taliban will put down their guns. It is simple, liberal logic: when facing an enemy you just punch out your best friend in hopes that will make the bully leave you alone. After Israel, what comes next, handing over American Jews to Iran for punishment?

THE CONGRESS

NATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER - Congressman Randy Forbes (R-VA) has stepped forward as the flag bearer in the battle to defend the National Day of Prayer. Federal Judge Barbara Crabb recently declared the observance unconstitutional, declaring it as no different than recognizing "rune magic." Her opinion had nothing to do with the Constitution; it was obviously just secularist and anti-Christian bigotry on her part. Congressman Forbes held a news conference with numerous Members of Congress in defense of the National Day of Prayer which was created by an act of Congress. The press conference can be viewed on Youtube in two parts. Links to part one and part two.

CULTURE AND RELIGION

NATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER POLLS - Shortly after Judge Barbara Crabb found the National Day of Prayer to be "unconstitutional," a Rasmussen Poll showed exactly how far out of line she is with the mainstream of thought in the United States. According to Rasmussen just 28% of of adult Americans believe that there should be no National Day of Prayer and 60% believe strongly that there should be. Judge Crabb was appointed by President Jimmy Carter and her core beliefs are similar to the judges now being appointed by President Barack Obama.

INTERNATIONAL

PERSECUTION IN IRAN - Until President Jimmy Carter helped to overthrow the secular Western leaning government in Iran, Christians and Jews could live in safety there and practice their religion. There are virtually no Jews remaining in Iran and the persecution of Christians has increased virtually every year since the Mullahs took over Iran and established a state based on Sharia, or Islamic law. Read the latest news on the persecution of Christians in Iran.

HUMAN RIGHTS WATCH? - The Human Rights Watch (HRW) organization is raising funds in Saudi Arabia, which is a violator of virtually all human rights, by declaring that Israel is "low hanging fruit." To translate, the organization was telling rich Muslims they (HRW) could up their propaganda campaign against Israel in return for larger donations. Over the past years HRW has found nothing wrong with terrorist acts against Israeli civilians, but finds Israel's practice of defending itself a violation of Palisteian "rights." Read more
