June 5, 2009

June 5, 2009 - Washington, DC Obama says America is large Islamic nation / Obama gives OK to threaten voters / Obama "saves" GM with 18,000 more layoffs / Florida students rebel against ACLU / Muslim man forces 12 year old girl in Christian area to marry him / Iraqi Christians still need help PETITION TO HILLARY CLINTON ON IRAQI CHRISTIANS - Read and sign the Internet petition to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. The petition urges Clinton to direct our embassies to assist Christians who have fled Islamic terror in Iraq. The petition is located at www.iraqichristianrefugees.org. THE PRESIDENCY OBAMA GIVES OK TO THREATEN VOTERS AT POLLS - Last November three Black Panthers with billy clubs threatened voters in Philadelphia with violence unless they voted "the right way." The Justice Department had won two cases against the Black Panthers in court; however, when the Obama Administration took over, the Justice Department ordered that the case be dropped. If the three men had been members of the KKK, I am very sure the Obama Justice Department would be seeking life in jail for them. Apparently justice is not blind to race in the Obama Administration. Read more OBAMA CLAIMS AMERICA IS A LARGE ISLAMIC NATION - During a French TV interview Obama said: "I think that in the United States and the West generally, we have to educate ourselves more effectively on Islam. And one of the points I want to make is, is that if you actually took the number of Muslims Americans, we'd be one of the largest Muslim countries in the world". Of course this is untrue. Muslims claim eight million in the USA and that is blatantly false because they claim all Arabs even though most Arabs in the USA are Christians who fled the terror of Islam. Read more DESTROY THE COMPANY TO SAVE IT - This week the Obama Administration forced General Motors into bankruptcy. The original idea to save GM and Chrysler was to keep American manufacturing jobs. The day GM filed for bankruptcy, 18,000 employees were permanently fired. The Obama GM will import small cars from China next year. In addition the Obama run Chrysler shut down the plant that makes motors for Chrysler cars and moved it to Mexico. And of course Chrysler is being merged with an Italian company that will cut even more American jobs. Our tax dollars at work to save American jobs? The bond holders received 10 cents on the dollar under the Obama bankruptcy plan for GM and Chrysler. The bonds are held for the most part by municipal and other pension funds. Obama saved the companies by moving the jobs overseas and destroying pension funds of the elderly. THE CONGRESS NO CONGRESSIONAL UPDATE THIS WEEK - As I am traveling and not on the Hill this week, there is no congressional update. CULTURE AND RELIGION STUDENTS REBEL AGAINST ACLU - About 400 graduating seniors at Pace High School in Florida stood and recited the Lord's Prayer during their graduation ceremony this last week. Many also painted crosses on their graduation caps. The rebellion against the iron fist of the ACLU occurred after a lawsuit to block any reference to religion at the graduations in the Santa Rosa County School District, Read more PLEASE HELP OUR CAUSE - The summer months are coming, a time when donations to non-profit organizations drop.

INTERNATIONAL MUSLIM MAN FORCES 12 YEAR OLD CHRISTIAN TO MARRY HIM - When I heard about this story and ran a Google search, I came up with several stories of 12 year old girls being forced to convert to Islam and to marry Muslims. One story was about an 80 year old man who forced a girl at gunpoint to convert. The most recent story is about a 12 year old girl in Pakistan who was forced to convert and marry a 37 year old Muslim. The police are refusing to assist the Christian parents because they say the girl has converted to Islam.
