“There is no question that there is a concerted effort to make this a political issue by some, and I join those who have called for looking into how is this opposition to the mosque being funded.”
~House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s comments on the proposed NYC mosque

Good, and let’s start with your cohort Harry Reid. For dissident Reid to speak out in opposition to the President deserves a bit of investigating. What about looking into how the mosque itself is being funded. The Imam Feisel Abdul Rauf is currently on a fund raising tour of the middle east payed for by the State Department with taxpayer money.

The GOP does not need this issue to disparage the Democratic party, the Democrats are doing enough damage to themselves with Pelosi leading the charge with her inane rhetoric. How about we launch an investigation into those that voted for Nancy Pelosi. It defies logic and common sense how anyone in good conscience could vote for this woman. Is this the best that San Francisco has to offer?

Conservatives can only hope that House Speaker Pelosi will speak frequently between now and November.

“It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and Bible.”
~George Washington

“God who gave us life gave us liberty. Can the liberties of a nation be secure when we have removed a conviction that these liberties are the gift of God? Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just, that his justice cannot sleep forever.”
~Thomas Jefferson

“We have staked the future of all of our political institutions upon the capacity of mankind for self-government… according to the Ten Commandments of God.”
~James Madison

“The Bible carries with it the history of the creation, the fall and redemption of man, and discloses to him, in the infant born at Bethlehem, the legistlator and savior of the world.”
~John Quincy Adams

“I believe the Bible is the best gift God has ever given to man. All the good of the Savior of the world is communicated to us through the Book.”
~Abraham Lincoln

“There is no national security but in the nation’s humble, acknowledged dependence upon God.”

“The church must be reminded that it is not the master or the servant of the state, but rather the conscience of the state. It must be the guide and the critic of the state.”
~Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr.

“One of the great strengths of the United States is we do not consider ourselves a Christian nation or a Jewish nation or a Muslim nation; we consider ourselves a nation of citizens who are bound by ideals and a set of values.”
~Barack Hussein Obama – In a speech during the Turkey Leg of The 2009 European Patronizing and Apologetic Tour

Will the President feel the need to repeat this statement from now on during every overseas visit only inserting the predominant religion of that particular country for the sake of appeasement?

And why wouldn’t he? What better political capital than to have a staunch supporter of abortion and homosexual marriage speak at the world’s most premier Catholic institution of higher education. The fact Notre Dame would even contemplate having him at the school, let alone allow him to speak his anti-Catholic views, is absolutely egregious. All Christians should be outraged.

Since the announcement was made Tuesday, an online petition has been formulated in protest addressed to Father Jenkins, President of the University of Notre Dame. Thus far, over 140,000 signatures have been collected.

House Speaker Pelosi visited the Pope this week trying to portray the good Catholic when in fact she is a staunch pro-choice advocate and caters to the pro-abortion crowd. This did not go unnoticed by the Pope and his message was clear when he spoke of the church’s teaching “on the dignity of human life from conception to natural death.”

How do any good Catholics reconcile themselves after voting for Obama yet support pro-life doctrine? Barack Obama has lifted the ban on exporting funds to other countries for worldwide abortions. This has to create a conundrum and personal inner turmoil when the faithful face their priest during weekly Mass knowing they had a hand in this policy. One can only assume the confessional line was long after this past election.

‘Lord, in the memory of all the saints who from their labors rest, and in the joy of a new beginning, we ask you to help us work for that day when black will not be asked to get in back, when brown can stick around… when the red man can get ahead, man; and when white will embrace what is right.’

While white Christian pastor Rev. Rick Warren tiptoed through his invocation in order to avoid offending non-believers, Lowery had no problem insulting a demographic which overwhelming contributed to his man’s victory. This isn’t the first time Lowery’s remarks have stirred controversy. During the funeral for the widow of slain civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Lowery openly criticized George W. Bush for his actions even though the President was in attendance paying his respects. Lowery’s comments at the inauguration were just another sign of the tolerance for reverse racism in America and the ‘change’ an Obama Presidency is sure to bring.

A quick examination will allow us to view Jesus’ positions on the hot-button issues.
Abortion – OK, let’s put this one to bed. (Bad choice of words) Jesus would not, I repeat, would not, agree with abortion. Pro-life or -choice, I believe we can all agree on this one.
Iraq War – Jesus was opposed to violence. He said so in the Garden of Gethsemane. “Put your sword back into its sheath, for all who take the sword, will die by the sword.” (Matthew 26:52)
Taxes – Look, even Jesus realized you had to pay your taxes, it was your debt to God in which he was more concerned. (Matthew 22:15-22).

While Republicans tend to boast the majority of the Christian base, liberal Christians, believe it or not, do exist. As a Christian, I obviously believe Jesus Christ is above petty politics, this article was purely for entertainment. However, the subject has drawn attention by bloggers. Check it out:
