Obama&#8217; s First Choice for Joint Chiefs Chairman Criticizes Pentagon, Military for Forcus on China&#8221;</p>
<p>by Bill Gertz<br />
May 17, 2012</p>
<p>SNIP: &#8220;Retired Marine Corps Gen. James Cartwright, who was President Obama’s initial candidate to head the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said in a speech this week that the Pentagons’ new battle concept is “demonizing China.”</p>
<p>Cartwright also revealed that the recent $487 billion in defense cuts was planned long ago, and he said that at least an additional $250 billion in cuts will be made, on top of a possible automatic cut of as much as $600 billion later this year.</p>
<p>Cartwright, who lost out in the race for chairman of the Joint Chiefs amid criticism over his personal life, said the military will be forced to change strategy or “hollow out.”&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;Obama Forms Soros-Controlled Energy Council To &#8216;Fix&#8217; Thriving Natural Gas Industry&#8221;<br />
May 10, 2012</p>
<p>SNIP: &#8220;But to expedite this natural gas boom, President Obama just recently decided to form an interagency natural gas council run by Cecilia Munoz, a former community organizer with La Raza and White House bureaucrat with deep-ties to George Soros, the billionaire investor who made his fortune in currency trading throughout the world while bankrolling liberal political efforts. Munoz formerly led the OpenSociety Institute and the Center for Community Change, two organizations which are directly connected to Soros, MoveOn.org, ACORN, and other fringe groups with a long record of opposing the development of America&#8217;s oil and coal resources.</p>
<p>As if having a new council run by the far left was not enough, Obama continues to support major Democratic donors such as Soros by picking winners and losers in the energy through risky subsidies, through a bill known as the NAT GAS Act.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;Hill GOP wants answers on Hezbollah leader tied to soldiers killings, set for release&#8221;<br />
May 17, 2012</p>
<p>SNIP: &#8220;Republicans on Capitol Hill are furious over the Obama administration’s handling of a purported Hezbollah commander, who was connected to the killing of five U.S. soldiers in 2007 and now is set for release by an Iraqi court.<br />
The most recent GOP lawmaker to express frustration and to demand answers from the administration is Florida Rep. Allen West, who on Wednesday sent a letter to President Obama questioning why Ali Musa Daqduq was turned over to Iraq in December 2011.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;Pelosi: No to Provision Protecting Chaplains From Being Ordered to Act Against Faith: &#8216;It&#8217;s A Fraud&#8217;&#8221;</p>
<p>By Elizabeth Harrington<br />
May 17, 2012</p>
<p>SNIP: &#8220;(CNSNews.com) – House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said she stands with the White House in opposing a provision in the House defense authorization bill that would prohibit anyone in the military from ordering a chaplain to act against his or her &#8220;conscience, moral principles, or religious beliefs&#8221; or against the religious beliefs of the denomination to which he or she belongs.</p>
<p>Pelosi described the conscience-protection provision as a “fraud.&#8221;"</p>

<p>&#8220;Obama Drops His Name Into the Other Presidential Biographies&#8221;<br />
by Seth Mandel<br />
May 15, 2012 9:08 am</p>
<p>SNIP: &#8220;Many of President Obama’s fervent devotees are young enough not to have much memory of the political world before the arrival of The One. Coincidentally, Obama himself feels the same way—and the White House’s official website reflects that.</p>
<p>The Heritage Foundation’s Rory Cooper tweeted that Obama had casually dropped his own name into Ronald Reagan’s official biography on www.whitehouse.gov, claiming credit for taking up the mantle of Reagan’s tax reform advocacy with his “Buffett Rule” gimmick. My first thought was, he must be joking. But he wasn’t—it turns out Obama has added bullet points bragging about his own accomplishments to the biographical sketches of every single U.S. president since Calvin Coolidge (except, for some reason, Gerald Ford). Here are a few examples:&#8221;</p>

&#8220;KUHNER: Obama&#8217;s Homosexual America<br />
President embraces liberal goal of ending marriage and societal stability&#8221;</p>
<p>Opnion Commentary by Jeffrey T. Kuhner &#8211; The Washington Times</p>
<p>SNIP: &#8220;For decades, liberals &#8211; aided and abetted by the popular culture &#8211; have been bringing homosexuality into the mainstream. It is slowly being promoted in public schools and constantly being glamorized in television shows and movies. The more the homosexual agenda is spread, the more militant its advocates become. They no longer want toleration. They seek full social acceptance. Once marriage falls, only one institution will be left standing in their way: traditional Christianity. The ultimate aim of the radical left has been to destroy religion &#8211; especially Western Christendom. Once a religion dies, so does the culture and civilization it spawned. America is at a crossroads, enmeshed in a cultural war with homosexual advocates like Mr. Obama who are determined to strike at the very nexus of our civilization.&#8221;</p>

&#8220;Mamas, Don&#8217;t Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be &#8216;Julia&#8217;&#8221;<br />
By Michelle Malkin<br />
May 4, 2012</p>
<p> SNIP: &#8220;Quick, hide under the covers. The nation&#8217;s storyteller, Barack Obama, unveiled a frightening new fable on the Internet intended to scare women away from supporting fiscal conservatives in November. But as is increasingly common with Obama&#8217;s social media propaganda initiatives, &#8220;The Life of Julia&#8221; immediately flopped.  Why? Because 1) self-sufficient women voters aren&#8217;t as sheeple-ish as Democratic strategists make them out to be, 2) conservative activists are overtaking Obama&#8217;s zombie army online, 3) non-delusional Americans don&#8217;t want cradle-to-grave utopians turning their country into the next Greece or Spain, and 4) responsible grownups are getting sick and tired of radical Saul Alinsky-style tall tales from the progressive Pied Piper.&#8221;</p>

<p>If I Wanted America to Fail, I’d Ban Kids From Farm Work</p>
<p>by Sarah Palin on Wednesday, April 25, 2012 at 11:27am ·</p>
<p>The Obama Administration is working on regulations that would prevent children from working on our own family farms. This is more overreach of the federal government with many negative consequences. And if you think the government’s new regs will stop at family farms, think again.</p>
<p>My family is a commercial fishing family, and commercial fishing in Alaska is much like the family farm (but the year &#8217;round farmers no doubt work harder than we do!). I guarantee fishing families wouldn’t stand for this nonsensical intrusion into our lives and livelihoods, and, as a former 4-H member, I don’t believe farm families will either. Our kids learn to work and to help feed America on our nation’s farms, and out on the water.</p>
<p>Federal government: get your own house in order and stop interfering in ours.</p>
<p>- Sarah Palin</p>

<p>&#8220;The Miss Universe Organization today follows institutions that have taken a stand against discrimination of transgender women including the Olympics, NCAA, the Girl Scouts of America and The CW&#8217;s America&#8217;s Next Top Model,&#8221; said GLAAD&#8217;s senior director of programs Herndon Graddick.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>-from The Bible: John 15</p>
<p>1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.</p>
<p>2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.</p>
<p>3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.</p>
<p>4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.</p>
<p>5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.</p>
<p>6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.</p>
<p>7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.</p>
<p>8 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.</p>
<p>9 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.</p>
<p>10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father&#8217;s commandments, and abide in his love.</p>
<p>11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.</p>
<p>12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.</p>
<p>13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.</p>
<p>14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.</p>
<p>15 Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.</p>
<p>16 Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.</p>
<p>17 These things I command you, that ye love one another.</p>
<p>18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.</p>
<p>19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.</p>
<p>20 Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.</p>
<p>21 But all these things will they do unto you for my name&#8217;s sake, because they know not him that sent me.</p>
<p>22 If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloak for their sin.</p>
<p>23 He that hateth me hateth my Father also.</p>
<p>24 If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.</p>
<p>25 But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.</p>
<p>26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:</p>
<p>27 And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.</p>
