It’s Baaackkk: ENDA!
Gay activist Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA) is a busy man these days. With a pro-gay President in the White House, Frank is certain that he can push through his favorite legislation, known as the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA). Frank has introduced H.R. 2981, the Employment Non-Discrimination Act of 2009.
The Man who Would Be God
A while back, I heard Obama bragging about his first few months in the White House. When he claimed he had done as much in that period as any president in history, my initial thought was that for the first time in his life he was being modest.

For instance, the Friday before last Bill O’Reilly had as a guest on his show Joan Walsh, the editor of leftist news site Salon.com.

Her thesis is that O’Reilly and, presumably, the rest of us who are passionately pro-life are culpable Tiller’s death. Read More... Email It...

They Are Dropping Like Flies
President Barack Obama wowed his fawning supporters this past week by killing a fly. Oh the dexterity. Oh the raw talent. Oh the humility as he calmly proclaimed, taking a tissue and scooping up fly guts, that he cleans up after himself. He even got props for being some Mr. Miyagi like sensei knowing the way to inner peace. Read More... Email It...
