Obama Plays Keystone Cops over Religious Freedom Attack

May 23, 2012   ·   By   ·   0 Comments

Catholic organizations across the country have filed more than a dozen lawsuits (in addition to those already filed several weeks ago) against the attack on religious freedom being perpetrated by ObamaCare.

As Jim Angle points out, when the Obama Administration launched this assault (remember the sneak peek “journalist” George Stephanopoulos gave us at the GOP debate?), they thought they were launching a war over contraception…not realizing they had the gun pointed backwards and were launching an attack on the First Amendment and religious freedom–the freedom that the earliest settlers of American left Europe and came here to get.

What a bunch of Keystone Cops! As stupid as it was, it makes perfect sense from this bunch of Marxist elitists. They hold anything under the banner of Christ in contempt and disdain, so I’m sure they thought they were going to paint a bunch of primitive Christian rubes as knuckle-dragging morons who want to stop women from having access to contraceptives…and in their arrogance they revealed themselves for the vicious enemies of religious freedom (and freedom in general) that many of us have long known them to be.

A number of misguided Catholics jumped onboard the ObamaCare bandwagon a few years ago when it was fighting for passage, due to the misunderstanding some Christians have about the role of the church and individuals to help people as opposed to the government doing such things for which it has no constitutional or moral authority. Most of those Catholics have by now seen that they were giving the scorpion a ride across the river…and now the stinger is out.

In his arrogance, Barack Obama has kicked a hornet’s nest…at a time when he least needed one.

DOJ on ‘Gays’: ‘Silence Will be Interpreted as Disapproval’

J. Matt Barber

The only thing this Obama White House seems to generate is scandal. Well, here’s yet another to add to the growing list. In addition to the Benghazi cover-up, IRS targeting of political dissenters and the illegal seizure of media phone records, whistleblowers within DOJ have contacted Liberty Counsel to express grave concerns over this administration’s latest attack on freedom. Our sources have provided Liberty Counsel an internal DOJ document titled: “LGBT Inclusion at Work: The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Managers.”

FrackNation: Setting the Record Straight

Bob Ellis

Looks like Zo and I have more in common than just conservatism. We both loved Battlestar Galactica (the old one) as kids, and thought Sheba was hot. But the frack they talked about isn't the kind of frack Alfonzo Rachel is talking about today: it's the fracking that produces more energy for us. I'm with him there, too. Zo discusses a film called FrackNation which dispels some of the anti-energy propaganda put out by the Left.

The Polls & What They Say

Carrie K. Hutchens

Polls, what do they tell us? Maybe a great deal and maybe only what a small group might think or wish those in power to think. But then... if one poll result doesn't agree with one's opinion... a search of the net will most likely turn up one that does. Amazing how that works.

‘Narcissist-in-Chief’ humiliates himself, yet again

Dr. Theo

When I saw the photo on The Drudge Report my reaction was the same as almost any other current or former member of the Armed Services—disgust. It reminded me of the Clintons who used uniformed military officers as servers to pass drinks and hors d'oeuvres at one of their White House gatherings.

"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the party over to the so-called moderates wouldn't make any sense at all." - Ronald Reagan, Nov. 10, 1964
