Patrick Lencioni has an excellent word on the Health Care reform debates dominating the congressional agenda this summer. You need to read this and think about it. This is what we need to demand of our representatives and leaders. If they desire to lead us in a certain direction, then let them lead us [...]

Why the Govt Should NOT be in Healthcare: A Christian Perspective
John Mark Reynolds at Scriptorium Daily presents a well-stated position on why it is NOT a good idea for government to get more involved in health care. It’s titled, “Too Great a Good for Caesar.”
He followed it up with this: “Don’t Turn Citizens Into Subjects.”
They’re both good, check ‘em out.

Poor Is A Relative Term
Doug Wilson is always provocative about politics, church and society, and economics. He makes his points well.

Palin Power
Doug Wilson offers an interesting opinion on Sarah Palin’s continuing influence on the political discussion in the United States and a pretty good assessment of how the media establishment tries to handle those it does not like. I’m not pushing for Palin here nor have I settled on what I think of her, I’m just [...]

10 Questions for Obamacare
Following my recent posting on questions for the President’s proposed health insurance programs, a good friend, Mr. Stephen Sproull, sent me this link to a great editorial by Dennis Prager: “10 Questions for Supporters of Obamacare.”

Cash for Clunkers Junked
The much touted Cash for Clunkers is itself getting ready to get junked. What should we think about proposed massive programs like health care reform if “smaller” (there are still billions involved!) programs like this cannot be effectively planned and carried out?
By the way, the $1 Billion set aside for covering turned in clunkers, at [...]

Five Reasons to Not Support Obamacare
Ok. We’ve heard all sorts of stuff about President Barack Obama’s 2000-page health care bills, and a great deal of talk from Obama himself.

Salman Rushdie on Free Speech
This is the truth we need to acknowledge and live by in a free society:
An interesting witness to this point is Salman Rushdie, the novelist who was once put under a Muslim sentence of death because he had insulted Muslim sensibilities in his novel The Satanic Verses. Mr. Rushdie presents an argument that Christians must [...]

I Hope Father Jon is Right
Father Jonathan Morris, a blog on Fox News, claims that anecdotal evidence from the road is not aligning well with the polls we’ve all been seeing. I hope he’s right.

Obama the Radical Abortionist: I will not Yield
Did you hear the contorted rhetoric here? On the one hand Obama says: “culture wars are so 90’s” and on the other hand he states, “I will not yield.” So let me ask, how can there be culture wars unless there are two opposite sides? He is accusing pro-lifers of being [...]

Why I Cannot Vote for Barack Obama and other Pro-Abortion Politicians
I am a single-issue voter in this election. Like me, love me, hate me, I don’t care. So long as a politician affirms the practice of abortion I cannot vote for him or her based on other considerations. May God keep us from the day when we have no other option. The practice of abortion [...]
