The Never-Ending Lie About Compassion

I was watching a clip of D.L. Hughley Breaks the News, something I shouldn't do without taking medication. During the course of the show, the host repeated and the guest affirmed a lie that has been told by liberals about conservatives so often that people accept it as gospel, and I'm here to declare, "Enough!"



Mr. Hughley was interviewing Ron Reagan, the wayward son of Ronald and Nancy Reagan, about President Obama's recent decision to reverse the ban on federal funding for… Continue

Reuniting Old Friends

As we recognize Dr. Martin Luther King today, I wonder if conservatives and the black community can ever come together on common ground. I don't think it's healthy for the black community to be beholden to one ideology, and conservatives cannot hope to govern without greater black support. I think generational change will go a long way toward healing old wounds, but it's going to take a concerted effort by one side or the other to engage ceaselessly until change comes about. I think the burden… Continue

Conservatives Unaware

As a conservative Christian who happens to be black, I get a lot of questions from my conservative friends about why blacks are so beholden to liberal ideology and how a race that is so heavily faith-based can support policies and politicians that go against their religious beliefs. Given that I chose to follow a different path, I'm probably not the best person to answer that question but I'll give it a try.



Each of us has something about us that gets top billing in our lives.… Continue

Cowards in Glass Houses

I'm going to give Attorney General Holder the benefit of the doubt and assume his accusation that we're "a nation of cowards" for not talking honestly about race applies to all sides in the discussion. The reason people don't talk about it is that those who believe they're on the receiving end of racial inequity often resort to cowardly tactics to squelch conversation of any kind on the topic.



It is cowardly to issue a blanket condemnation of American society as inherently racist… Continue

Rotten Fruit

The Bible says, "By their fruits you shall know them." Unfortunately for millions of unborn persons who will perish because of legalized abortion and embryonic stem-cell research, far too many people who profess to stand up for them ignored this pearl of Biblical wisdom for a lie. This President who promised to chart a different path from his liberal predecessors and find common ground has proved to be what his past words and actions suggested he would be - an advocate of the murder of innocent… Continue

Thirty Pieces of Silver

To almost no one's surprise except the pro-life advocates who voted for him, President Obama today reversed the executive order prohibiting U.S. taxpayer money from going to international family planning groups that promote or provide information, counseling, or referrals about abortion services.



I am outraged that my money is now going to help pay for the murder of unborn children around the world, and there's nothing I can do about it. I'm offended at how little our President must… Continue

The Great Divider

As we approach the end of the 21st century's first decade, we are reaping the whirlwind brought about by one of the most deceptive and cunning politicians to come upon the scene in my generation. A man barely known outside of Illinois in the summer of 2004 is the President of the United States in 2009, becoming the leader of the world's most powerful nation through an illusion not unlike the Wizard of Oz, all the while deflecting attention from the man behind the curtain.



In him we… Continue

Message to the GOP: Fight Kos With Kos and Kendrick Meek With Dr. Marion Thorpe

Why Marion Thorpe offers the GOP its brightest and most electable candidate in the Florida race for US Senate





By Yomin Postelnik



Marion Thorpe is not only a great conservative candidate with a record of recruiting youth and minorities to the GOP. He’s also the only candidate who can dampen the enthusiasm that Democrats plan to build around Kendrick Meek for the US Senate. If Republicans want to keep the seat we need to begin fighting on the terms that Democrat… Continue
