OBAMA RECESS APPOINTMENTS? - Senator Barack Obama vehemently opposed the recess appointments of President George W. Bush, as did Senator Harry Reid who now controls the Senate. Now both men believe that recess appointments are a vital way to "... keep government functioning." The Obama Administration has a staggering backlog of vacancies in key positions. Most of those vacancies have nothing to do with Senate "holds," but rather the lack of vetting candidates for appointment. REALITY: The Obama Administration has been so busy with a far left agenda of "health care reform," carbon tax," and forced unionization that filling jobs and fixing the economy has had little attention.

PAGAN AIR FORCE? - The new "worship circle" at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs represents nothing new. Wiccans and pagans have been part of the fourteen approved "religious groups" for more than a decade according to reports. Attention was called to the activities of the pagans and witches at the Academy because a cross was left at the pagan outdoor ritual site. About ten cadets and another thirty local servicemen participate in pagan or witchcraft rituals. The leader of the pagan group is Tech. Sgt. Brandon Longcrier, who moved the pagan center from a building to an outside venue last year. Doesn't it give you a warm, fuzzy and protected feeling to know that people in our armed services who believe in witchcraft have control of modern firepower, including nuclear weapons? One of these days maybe we can elect a veteran who is a gay witch to the Presidency.

$100 IN THE BANK COUNTS AS $1000? - Someone recently sent me this explanation of how the Federal Reserve Bank's fractional reserve system works: "If the reserve requirement is 10%, for example, a bank that receives a $100 deposit may lend out $90 of that deposit. If the borrower then writes a check to someone who deposits the $90, the bank receiving that deposit can lend out $81. As the process continues, the banking system can expand the initial deposit of $100 into a maximum of $1,000 of money ($100+$90+81+$72.90+...=$1,000)." In other words, about 90% of the money in "circulation" does not really exist. President Barack Obama wants to increase the phony money supply with yet another stimulus. An interesting site explains why it is mathematically impossible to pay off the national debt. Read more

CONGRESS SNOWED OUT - A second record blizzard hit Washington the day funding to stop "global warming" was to be discussed in the Senate. All hearings and votes were canceled. The amount of snow that has fallen on Washington, DC this season is a record setter. The previous record was in 1889. Washington has had more than 55 inches so far this season. Conservative Senator Jim Inhofe, who has fought the global warming religion for years in the Senate, made light of the issue and wondered aloud where Al Gore was hiding in the snow. Read more

LAST KENNEDY LEAVES CONGRESS - Congressman Patrick Kennedy (D-RI) made it official today: "... my life is taking a new direction, and I will not be a candidate for reelection this year." With those words he announced that more than fifty years of a member of his family holding office in either the House or Senate had ended. Because of his long record of substance abuse problems, and his absences from session while in rehab clinics, it is difficult to tell if his decision was personal or politically based. After the election of Republican Scott Brown in Massachusetts his seat was also looking vulnerable. Read more

SHELL OIL BEHIND ATTACK ON RELIGIOUS FREEDOM? - Royal Dutch Shell markets gas in the United States under the Shell brand. This Dutch company is making further inroads into "Islamic nations" because of the huge immigration of Muslims to the Netherlands. It is no surprise then that the Dutch government is trying to jail the leader of the second largest party in the European Union because he "insulted" Islam. The persecution of Geert Wilders is political and economic. The Dutch authorities want the revenue from the largest firm in the Netherlands and that is Shell. The government wants to shut up any criticism of Islam that it believes would reduce Shell's profits. The solution of the Dutch government in the Netherlands is to eliminate free speech to increase possible Islamic revenue and that, I believe, is the reason for the persecution of Geert Wilnders.

WESTERN CIVILIZATION ON TRIAL - The trial of Member of Parliament Geert Wilders is not an issue for just the Netherlands. It is not Geert Wilders that is on trial, it is Western civilization. If Muslims in Western nations can have people put in jail for "insulting" their religion, it is a statement of surrender of not only Christianity, but the secular West. More at NRO
