Members of the U.S. House today approved a plan to create a federal "hate crimes" plan that will provide special protections to homosexuals and others with alternative sexual choices. The vote was 249-175, and came despite intense Republican opposition to the creation of the privileged class. How did your Representative vote?

We're Outsourcing Food Stamp Jobs To India
Poverty in America is creating jobs for people overseas, says ABC News. The saga began when a Florida resident's hours working as a nanny got cut back when her boss' hours also got cut. She called a toll-free line to inquire about her food stamps and noticed that the call center obviously wasn't in the US.

Alan Keyes: Government Will Stage Terror, Declare Martial Law
Excellent article. It was what us anti-Obama people were warning about BEFORE he was elected in...this man is not just wanting to be President of the U.S. He wants to be the President of the known universe...or something like that. We are living in different times. Until the majority of Americans wake up and realize that, I will be "worried." Not worried like some might think, because my trust is in Christ, but worried for this country and for those who are not saved and do not have their Hope in Christ. Please...read this article. Small quote below link from the article.
http://www.truthnews.us/?p=2838
“It’s obvious that they will stop at nothing,” Keyes told attendees of a reception in Fort Wayne, adding, “We may wake up one day and there’s a series of terrorist attacks, the economy is paralysed….martial law will be declared everywhere in the United States and it won’t end until the crisis ends.”
Keyes said that Americans should be thankful if they even see another election in 2012, stating, “If we don’t wake up and work to see that it happens, we will not see another election.”
“The minute they think they can get away with it, they will end this system of government and that is their intention,” added Keyes, noting that everyone acting as if the time we are in was just “business as usual” reminds him of the attitude of politicians in the Weimar Republic when Hitler was rising to power or eastern Europe when the Communists were taking over after the second world war.
Keyes said that because the majority of people are decent-minded, they believe others will play by the rules when this simply isn’t the case, warning that this attitude will allow evil to take over before we can do anything about it.

Things That Make You Go GRRR
Copied from this article.
1. $11 Billion to $22 billion is spent on welfare to illegal aliens each year.
2. $2.2 Billion dollars a year is spent on food assistance programs such as food stamps, WIC, and free school lunches for illegal aliens.
3. $2.5 Billion dollars a year is spent on Medicaid for illegal aliens.
4. $12 Billion dollars a year is spent on primary and secondary school education for children here illegally and they cannot speak a word of English!
5. $17 Billion dollars a year is spent for education for the American-born children of illegal aliens, known as anchor babies.
6. $3 Million Dollars a DAY is spent to incarcerate illegal aliens.
7. 30% percent of all Federal Prison inmates are illegal aliens.
8. $90 Billion Dollars a year is spent on illegal aliens for Welfare and Social Services by the American taxpayers.
9. $200 Billion Dollars a year in suppressed American wages are caused by the illegal aliens.
10. The illegal aliens in the United States have a crime rate that’s two-and-a-half times that of white non-illegal aliens. In particular, their children are going to make a huge additional crime problem in the U.S.
11. During the year of 2005 there were 4 to 10 MILLION illegal aliens that crossed our Southern Border also, as many as 19,500 illegal aliens from Terrorist Countries. Millions of pounds of drugs, cocaine, meth, heroin and marijuana, crossed into the U. S from the Southern border. Homeland Security Report.
12. The National Policy Institute, “estimated that the total cost of mass deportation would be between $206 and $230 billion or an average cost of between $41 and $46 billion annually over a five year period.”
13. In 2006 illegal aliens sent home $45 BILLION in remittances back to their countries of origin.
14. “The Dark Side of Illegal Immigration: Nearly One Million Sex Crime s Committed by Illegal Immigrants in The United States.”
Total cost is a whopping… $338.3 BILLION A YEAR!!!
If this doesn’t bother you then just ignore this and keep paying taxes (that WILL increase), but on the other hand, if it does raise the hair on the back of your neck, then let others know and CONTACT your representative.

Is the Government Preparing Us for Censorship?
A great article by Tibor Machan. Click here for the link directly to the article. I have posted it here for you as well. So before I can't say it, I will say it today: "The idea of global warming is a scam. The government will use this to their advantage to either tax us for something that does not exist, nor needs to be taxed, or as Mr. Machan posits, will use global warming to eliminate free speech."
In a series of articles on climate change the villain is gradually being identified as, you should have guessed it, freedom of thought!
One Jon Gertner of The New York Times Magazine wrote the other day that “What makes CRED’s work [the Center for Research on Environmental Decisions] especially relevant ... is that various human attitudes and responses--How can there be global warming when we had a frigid January? What’s in it for me if I change the way I live?--can make the climate problem worse by leaving it unacknowledged or unaddressed. Apathetic and hostile responses to climate change, in other words, produce a feedback loop and reinforce the process of global warming.”
The idea that thought and speech are major obstacles to doing what is right isn’t new at all. As recently as the 1980s the one liberty that liberal statists could be counted on defending, at least in the United States of America, is the one spelled out in the First Amendment to the Constitution. Alas, this was challenged some time ago by Professor Catharine A. MacKinnon of the University of Michigan school of law, in her short but prominently published book, Only Words (Harvard University Press, 1983). In it the good professor argued that words do not deserve the legal protection afforded them by the Constitution since insults and put downs, including jokes, can injure people good and hard. And such injuries should not be protected. The victims would have to pay too high a price for the fact that the law treats such injuries as “only words.”
We have heard a good deal lately about how President Barack Obama is a pragmatists, how he eschews ideology. The most sensible rendition of this sound bite is that he refuses to be bound by principles and when it comes to something as vital as containing climate change, why not toss the First Amendment and censor those who show skepticism? Professor MacKinnon wasn’t recommending tossing the principle underlying the First Amendment, only suggesting that we should not be ideological about our embrace of it. Maybe the same should be expected from President Obama when it comes to a central elements of his political agenda, namely, to contain pollution.
This pragmatism isn’t across the board for Mr. Obama, of course. As with all loyal pragmatists he, too, is willing to stick to a select few principles and refuse to give them up even in times of emergency. Consider, for example, that according to the Obama & Co. there is never any excuse for using torture! I will not speculate on why in that instance pragmatism is inadequate--various suggestions present themselves and some of them aren’t pretty at all. Suffice it to note that Mr. Obama seems to be perfectly willing to toss jettison the principles of the free market--the right to private property, the right to enter into binding contracts, the right to due process. And here we have evidence that like minded folks, too, appear not to be very worried about banning certain kinds of inconvenient conduct such as speaking out against the doctrine--the ideology?--of climate change.
We should be prepared, I believe, for some movement in this direction. Apathy toward climate change isn’t tolerable, nor is skepticism. Leaving the climate problem unacknowledged or unaddressed would also count as something we ought not to tolerate--so if I speak out against recycling, for example, maybe I ought to be muzzled since not doing so will “produce a feedback loop and reinforce the process of global warming.”
Just as Professor MacKinnon’s abandoning of the First Amendment seemed to her fully justified, given how that Amendment made it possible to insult and intimidate women, so it should come as no big surprise to anyone that laws will be passed that prohibit global warming skepticism. Such dangerous conduct on the part of citizens must be arrested, or so some of the climate change fanatics could well believe now, quite seriously.

A Little Experiment and a Lesson For All
This makes sense. An economics professor at Texas Tech said he had never failed a single student before but had, once, failed an entire class. The class had insisted that 'socialism' worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer. The professor then said ok, we will have an experiment in this class on socialism. All grades would be averaged and everyone would receive the same grade so no one would fail and no one would receive an A. After the first test the grades were averaged and everyone got a B. The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy. But, as the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too, so they studied little; the second test average was a D! None were happy. When the third test rolled around the average was an F. The scores never increased as bickering, blame, name calling all resulted in hard feelings and no one would study for anyone else. All failed to their great surprise, and the professor told them that 'socialism' would ultimately fail because the harder we work to succeed the greater the reward, but when a GOVERNMENT takes all the reward away. . . none will TRY or SUCCEED.

Importance of being judgmental
Society is so hung up on being politically correct that we forget we are instructed to discern what is good and evil. Great article reminding us that we are at a critical juncture in this country; our forefathers gave us an excellent Constitution to help all of us live our lives, and we now must judge what our government is doing.

Who We Are Fighting
First, I want to be clear. I am posting this link not because I want to make you think that every Muslim would do this...but I do want you to know that any practicing, Koran-believing Muslim that wants "allah" to be pleased with them thinks this is okay. I say that because since September 11, 2001, we have not had any major group of Muslims come forward and denounce what is being done in their "religion's" name. Now I do think there are Muslims that claim to be Muslims and do not really know what they are talking about, just as there are people who walk around claiming to be a Christian and they do not know what they are talking about. Not every Muslim is a bad person based upon that last sentence. But any Muslim that does this type of thing, that condones this type of thing...yeah, they are bad. We are all "bad"...but it is Jesus Christ that saves us. We all need to be saved, but only Jesus Christ can save us. Muslims are worshipping the devil. Anyone in their right mind cannot actually believe that a God who created us in His image would want this done to another person.
http://islamizationwatch.blogspot.com/2009/04/video-taliban-slaughter-pakistani.html
Before you go to that link, let me warn you that I could not watch it all. I can't get the image out of my mind either and, actually, wish that I hadn't seen what little bit that I did see! But as people go on and on about what is torture and what is not, we need to keep in mind who we are fighting. Folks, no matter what "side" you are on, Democrat or Republic, Independent or none of the above, we are all Americans and these people want to destroy our way of life! We must come together as Americans and we must defeat this enemy. I will go so far as to say that all mosques in this country should be torn down and any Muslim that will not swear allegiance to this country and go through some sort of re-education against this ideology of hate (because it is not a religion), needs to go to a Muslim country and live their life there. And, if you think that is mean, or they don't want to go, then both should think why that is... I am so glad I am an American.
I praise God that He allowed me to be born in this country. I praise God that He sent His Son to die on the cross for my sins! To tell you the truth, I am so happy that salvation is a free gift...that all I have to do to be saved is to accept a free gift. Because honestly, if it was up to me...I'm afraid I would never be quite good enough, would procrastinate until it was too late to "do" whatever it took, would never quite make it. So thank you God for sending your Son to die for me...to die for the reader of this blog...to die for anyone out there who is willing to profess with their mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in their heart that God did send His Son for us.
If you don't understand who we are fighting and you did watch that clip...I don't know what will move you to understand that water boarding, as "rough" as it might be, is not torture. It is enhanced interrogation techniques. We are at war, and war is hell...well, not quite as bad as hell--but close enough for this world.

Why I care about Obama eligibility issue - David Kupelian
With the entire so-called "mainstream press" ridiculing those millions of Americans who still ask questions about Barack Obama's yet-unproven constitutional eligibility to serve as president, you might wonder why WorldNetDaily and Whistleblower persist, virtually alone in the major media, to cover this issue.

FBI Spied on TEA Party Americans
As peaceful as we all were, we were being spied upon as if we were terrorists! This country is not the great America any longer if this report is accurate. You have to read this article! http://homelandsecurityus.com/?p=2659
Christians in name only
These are crises of orthodoxy – what we believe – and are the core of other sequential crises of belief that have destroyed the common principles that were essentials in creating our constitutional republic. The nation that has produced the greatest good for the greatest number is teetering on the precipice of civil tyranny and moral anarchy because, foremost, we have rejected the only Source of freedom, His sovereignty of all of His creation and the absolute truth revealed in His Son and written word.

The Roman Road to Salvation
The Roman Road is a group of Bible verses from the book of Romans in the New Testament. If you walk down this road you will end up understanding how to be saved from your sins by Jesus Christ.
1. Romans 3:23 "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."
We all have sin in our hearts. We all were born with sin. We were born under the power of sin's control. Admit that you are a sinner.
2. Romans 6:23a "...The wages of sin is death..."
Sin has an ending. It results in death. We all face physical death, which is a result of sin. But a worse death is spiritual death that alienates us from God, and will last for all eternity. The Bible teaches that there is a place called the Lake of Fire where lost people will be in torment forever. It is the place where people who are spiritually dead will remain. Understand that you deserve death for your sin.
3. Romans 6:23b "...But the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."
Salvation is a free gift from God to you! You can't earn this gift, but you must reach out and receive it. Ask God to forgive you and save you.
4. Romans 5:8, "God demonstrates His own love for us, in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us!"
When Jesus died on the cross He paid sin's penalty. He paid the price for all sin, and when He took all the sins of the world on Himself on the cross, He bought us out of slavery to sin and death! The only condition is that we believe in Him and what He has done for us, understanding that we are now joined with Him, and that He is our life. He did all this because He loved us and gave Himself for us!
Give your life to God... His love poured out in Jesus on the cross is your only hope to have forgiveness and change. His love bought you out of being a slave to sin. His love is what saves you, not religion, or church membership. God loves you!
5. Romans 10:13 "Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved!"
Call out to God in the name of Jesus!
6. Romans 10:9,10 "...If you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead, you shall be saved; for with the heart man believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation."
If you know that God is knocking on your heart's door, ask Him to come into your heart.
7. Jesus said, Revelation 3:20a "Behold I stand at the door and knock, if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him..."
Is Jesus knocking on your heart's door? Believe in Him. Ask Him to come in to your heart by faith, and ask Him to reveal Himself to you. Open the Bible to the Gospel of John and read what God says about Jesus, about you, and about being born again. God will help you. He loves you.
You need to look for a local church where God's word is preached. The Bible says that we are to desire God's word like a newborn baby desires mother's milk. Aren't you hungry to know the truth?
Water baptism is one of the ways you first show that you have been joined to Jesus. This is an action, and actions will not save you. However, it is an act of obedience and a symbol of commitment.
The symbolism is this: When you go down in the water you show that You have been crucified and buried with Him, and when you come up out of the water you show that you have been raised to walk with Him in newness of life. (See Romans chapter 6)
You have been born again. (See John chapter 3)
Your body has become God's temple. Your heart is where He lives. Forgiveness is yours in Jesus. And you belong to Him.
You were sin's slave. But now you are a child of GOD!
8. John 1:12 "As many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name!"
1. Romans 3:23 "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."
We all have sin in our hearts. We all were born with sin. We were born under the power of sin's control. Admit that you are a sinner.
2. Romans 6:23a "...The wages of sin is death..."
Sin has an ending. It results in death. We all face physical death, which is a result of sin. But a worse death is spiritual death that alienates us from God, and will last for all eternity. The Bible teaches that there is a place called the Lake of Fire where lost people will be in torment forever. It is the place where people who are spiritually dead will remain. Understand that you deserve death for your sin.
3. Romans 6:23b "...But the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."
Salvation is a free gift from God to you! You can't earn this gift, but you must reach out and receive it. Ask God to forgive you and save you.
4. Romans 5:8, "God demonstrates His own love for us, in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us!"
When Jesus died on the cross He paid sin's penalty. He paid the price for all sin, and when He took all the sins of the world on Himself on the cross, He bought us out of slavery to sin and death! The only condition is that we believe in Him and what He has done for us, understanding that we are now joined with Him, and that He is our life. He did all this because He loved us and gave Himself for us!
Give your life to God... His love poured out in Jesus on the cross is your only hope to have forgiveness and change. His love bought you out of being a slave to sin. His love is what saves you, not religion, or church membership. God loves you!
5. Romans 10:13 "Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved!"
Call out to God in the name of Jesus!
6. Romans 10:9,10 "...If you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead, you shall be saved; for with the heart man believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation."
If you know that God is knocking on your heart's door, ask Him to come into your heart.
7. Jesus said, Revelation 3:20a "Behold I stand at the door and knock, if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him..."
Is Jesus knocking on your heart's door? Believe in Him. Ask Him to come in to your heart by faith, and ask Him to reveal Himself to you. Open the Bible to the Gospel of John and read what God says about Jesus, about you, and about being born again. God will help you. He loves you.
You need to look for a local church where God's word is preached. The Bible says that we are to desire God's word like a newborn baby desires mother's milk. Aren't you hungry to know the truth?
Water baptism is one of the ways you first show that you have been joined to Jesus. This is an action, and actions will not save you. However, it is an act of obedience and a symbol of commitment.
The symbolism is this: When you go down in the water you show that You have been crucified and buried with Him, and when you come up out of the water you show that you have been raised to walk with Him in newness of life. (See Romans chapter 6)
You have been born again. (See John chapter 3)
Your body has become God's temple. Your heart is where He lives. Forgiveness is yours in Jesus. And you belong to Him.
You were sin's slave. But now you are a child of GOD!
8. John 1:12 "As many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name!"

Islam Needs to Prove It's a Religion of Peace
Many Muslims seem to believe that it is OK to teach hatred and violence in the name of their religion, and at the same time expect the world to respect Islam as "a religion of peace, love and harmony." A recent film, "Fitna", by Dutch parliament member Geert Wilders has shed light on this issue.

A letter to the president ~ By Barbara Simpson
Barbara writes to Obama, and reads him the riot act about being "rude, crass, arrogant and impudent in your recent dealings with two major Catholic universities," not to mention his attempt to appoint Caroline Kennedy, who is pro-abortion, to be U.S. ambassador to the Vatican. (They showed some spine and refused the appointment.)

Why I care about Obama eligibility issue - David Kupelian
With the entire so-called "mainstream press" ridiculing those millions of Americans who still ask questions about Barack Obama's yet-unproven constitutional eligibility to serve as president, you might wonder why WorldNetDaily and Whistleblower persist, virtually alone in the major media, to cover this issue.
