And so the veil of deceit lifts. The news media, so eager to proclaim Obama as the messiah during the election cycle, now turns on him and begins to devour him. What changed? In one sense, nothing. Obama’s promises of socialist changes are progressing. Universal health care, nationalization of manufacturers and banking, imposition of union [...]

It can be summed up in this little quote: Democrats are looking ahead to expanded power. New New Deal. Unfettered ability to impose government oversight, appoint activist judges, raise taxes, and spend whatever they want on whatever they want. I am so not looking forward to the next 4 years.

I stared writing about “Joe the Plumber” yesterday based on a story at the New York Post. Little did I know how huge the story was about to become. John McCain launched Joe the Plumber into the national spotlight during last night’s debate. My post was going to be about how Obama’s strategy results in [...]

The “separation of church and state,” such as it is, should keep the government from imposing a religion upon the people of this country. But regulations that squelch the speech of pastors? Can the US Government tell pastors what they can and cannot talk about? There is no law that I’m aware of that restricts [...]

I must be a target, then. U.S. presidential rivals Barack Obama and John McCain target religious voters on Saturday when as guests of one of America’s foremost evangelists they discuss faith in public life, AIDS, the environment and other issues. Neither of the candidates appeal to me from a spiritual conviction. McCain can be downright [...]

Go get’em, James Dobson. Obama had some very liberal interpretations of what the bible says, and simultaneously tried to minimize Christian influence in politics *and* say that all religious discussions are welcome. James is firing back against what he called a “fruitcake interpetation of the bible.” I love that phrase. News sources come from here [...]

Chasing the Wind is honored to host the 219th edition of the Christian Carnival II, the blogosphere’s best Christian writing. My comments on the post in italics after each entry, but I left the author’s original thoughts when he or she provided them. I included almost all posts I received; I excluded two from the [...]

Name one thing the US Government does exceptionally well. Pass legislation? Pork barrel politics, anyone? Hurricane Katrina recovery? Issue passports in time for your vacation? Assess property values? Public schooling? Social Security? IRS? Oversee accounting irregularities like Enron? Prosecute O.J Simpson and keep him in jail? Border security? Then why oh why would anybody possibly [...]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know I haven’t posted much. Been really, really busy. I still owe Jennifer my answers to The Eight. I’ll get to it, soon, I hope. I wanted to blog about how the Democrats are findng religion. Apparently it’s ok with The Media if the Democrats talk about their faith, but if [...]
