In Congress, March 16, 1776

The Intersection of Church and State…

What was the mindset of our Founders less than four months before they signed the Declaration of Independence?

if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

2 Chronicles 7:14

What activity did our Founders do in unison, less than two months before they signed the Declaration of Independence?

Most people are familiar with the largest and most recognizable signature on the Declaration of Independence… that of John Hancock.

But most people are not familiar with a document he (and several others) consented to less than four months earlier…

Are You Better Off Now Than You Were Five Years Ago?

Five years ago, the Republicans controlled the House, Senate, and Presidency.

Unemployment was at 4.4%

The national debt was under $8.7 Trillion.

Then, in January 2007, the Democrats took control…

Know the Truth: Obama Confessed the Islamic Confession of Faith

For some reason, my comment #29 below is still sitting in moderation at Michelle Malkin’s site, but my comment #33 was released from moderation. I’m creating this post on my blog to provide the content of both comments.

  From one of the articles linked in this post:

  CIA-led drone attack kills terror leader Anwar al-Awlaki and Al Qaeda magazine editor Samir Khan in Yemen, in a strike that used two Predator drones and Hellfire missiles.

  Fact #1: These two, and many of the other Jihadists who have killed Americans both abroad and here on U.S. soil (think Nidal Malik Hasan), are Muslims.

  Fact #2: Not all Muslims are Jihadists, but all Jihadists are Muslims.

  Fact #3: A single honest recitation of the Shahada in Arabic is all that is required for a person to become a Muslim.  A conversion to Islam is meant to be a one-way process, both for the individual and their descendants.

  Fact #4: The TLC show discussed in this HotAir post shows an American Catholic male converting to Islam, by repeating the Shahada, so that he will be allowed to marry a Muslim female.  All that is required for his proof of conversion is his recitation of the Shahada in Arabic.

  Fact #5: The Muslim Call to Prayer (the Adhan) begins with repetition of the Shahada in Arabic.

  Fact #6: As of the time of this comment, not a single one of the 200+ comments on that HotAir thread mentioned the fact that the current resident of the White House has publicly recited the Shahada in Arabic.
  Yes, Barack Hussein Obama took Shahada

  Fact #7: Regardless of whether he believes it or not, he said it.
  And he knows what that means to the Muslim world.  He grew up in the world’s most populous Muslim nation (Indonesia).  He attended Koran study classes there.  He knows what the Shahada means, and that the Muslim world interprets his recitation of the Shahada as an indication that he is a Muslim.  They write off his English professions of “I am a Christian” as Taqiyya.  They know that he would not have been elected 7 years after 9/11/2001 if he had openly confessed to being a Muslim.

  His recitation of the Shahada in Arabic is all the Muslim world needs to know to believe that he is a Muslim.

  And the fact that he now occupies the White House brings even more seriousness to the Indonesian title of his book:

  Assault Hope: From Jakarta To The Whitehouse

  An American Expat in Southeast Asia says:

  The words “menerjang” (assault or attack) and “harapan” (hope or expectation) make sense when used separately, but used together, the term “menerjang harapan” makes no sense in Indonesian. But while the term makes no sense, it does however present a mental picture to the native Indonesian speaker, the imagery of a “hopeful assault” a “struggle for victory” or to put it more bluntly, a “jihad”, or as the Indonesians see it, Obama’s “jihad” for the Whitehouse. For the native Indonesian speaker, this figurative language creates a mental image whereas the translation of the book’s title can actually come to mean…

  “Jihad: From Jakarta To The Whitehouse”.

“It doesn’t matter. He’s the President of the United States. He’s elected.”

It doesn’t matter. He’s the President of the United States. He’s elected.

Spoken like someone who thinks that the U.S.A. is a Democracy, not a Republic.

A Republic is ruled by the Rule of Law.
A Democracy is ruled by the Rule of the Majority.

Governor Perry, when he says, “It doesn’t matter”, is saying that the Rule of Law doesn’t matter. And when Governor Perry says, “He’s the President of the United States. He’s elected.”, he is saying that what matters is the outcome of an election, not the Rule of Law.

Perry may as well be a Democrat. He sure isn’t a Constitutional Republican.

Frankly it’s alarming that he said “It doesn’t matter” whether or not the purported birth certificate for the President of the United States is real. In other words, it doesn’t matter whether or not the man holding the office of President of the United States is Constitutionally qualified to hold the office. It doesn’t matter if he is guilty of forgery, perjury, and usurpation of the highest elected office in this country. All that matters is that he won an election. (with significant help from ACORN)

We are not a Democracy.

We are a Republic, NOT a Democracy!

In Memory of My Friend & All of the Victims, Both Seen & Unseen

It’s been ten years since my friend, and thousands of other innocent people, were murdered.

It’s been three years since I wrote this post, and my feelings haven’t changed.

I post this today in memory of my friend and all of the victims of 9/11/2001, both those seen and unseen.
