THE PRESIDENT
SENATORS PRO-LIFE LETTER TO BUSH - This week 35 Senators sent a letter to President Bush urging him to assertively stand firm against any efforts by Congress to weaken current pro-life policy. It is very significant that only 34 Senators are needed to uphold a Presidential veto. Thus, if President Bush vetoes pro- abortion bills drafted by the Nancy Pelosi radicals in charge of the Congress the Senate can uphold his veto. The letter was organized by the office of Senator Sam Brownback. Click here for text.
THE HOUSE
NANCY PELOSI PAYS BACK GEORGE SOROS - Let's get honest: A handful of billionaires keep the Democrat Party funded. The leader of the pack is George Soros who uses various 527 groups, non- profit organizations and blind trusts to fund far left- wingers like Nancy Pelosi. The payback is radical Joseph Onek being added to Nancy Pelosi's staff as Senior Counsel. Onek was most recently the Senior Policy Analyst for the Open Society Institute which is atheist George Soros' main tool to destroy the Judeo- Christian heritage of the United States. The group supports euthanasia, abortion, legalization of drugs such as marijuana, opening the US borders to anyone who wants to come in and of course a pro- homosexual agenda for the public schools. Onek would be Pelosi's right hand should she become President through some disaster - think about it! Click here for longer story.
CHILD INTERSTATE ABORTION - Congresswoman Illena Ros- Lehtinen (R-FL) has reintroduced the Child Interstate Abortion Act (CIANA). The bill would make it a Federal crime to transport a minor across state lines to obtain an abortion for the purpose of evading a parental consent or parental notification law in the minor's home state. Over 30 states currently have notification or consent laws and some abortion clinics in neighboring states will actually advertise that parental consent is not needed if kids come to their states for abortions. The CIANA bill number is HR 1063 and already has 105 co- sponsors in the House.
THE SENATE
VIDEO GAMING RATINGS - U.S. Senator Sam Brownback reintroduced the Truth in Video Game Rating Act which would require a video game rating organization to review the entire playable content of a game before assigning a content rating. Brownback said, "The current video game ratings system is not as accurate as it could be because reviewers do not see the full content of games and do not even play the games they rate." As a result parents unwittingly buy children games that are far more violent and sexually explicit than they otherwise would. Click here for more information.
RELIGION AND SOCIETY
MALL SHOOTING VANISHES FROM NEWS - WHY? -- ABC, CBS, CNN, FOX and NBC interrupted their broadcasts on the night of Tuesday, February 13, 2007 to urgently convey the news that a gunman had shot a dozen people at a mall in Utah. The next morning the headlines read that five were dead and more could have died if a hero off duty cop would not have cornered the gunman. Then suddenly all the news of the shootings stopped on every major outlet. Why? It turns out the gunman was a Muslim doing his Jihad duty by killing innocent people at a mall. Most of those who died were in a card shop buying Valentines Day cards. Like the suicide bomber who blew himself up at the University of Oklahoma football game this story went silent except to note that some Bosnian Muslims could face prejudice as a result. The media forgot about the five dead and those severally wounded in the attacks.
WORLD CONFERENCE OF FAMILIES - The World Conference of Families will be held in Warsaw, Poland during May 11th through the 13th.
