American Minute from William J. Federer
The Korean War started JUNE 25, 1950.
Communist North Korea invaded South Korea, killing thousands.
General Douglas MacArthur was given command of the U.N. Forces and after a daring landing of troops at Inchon, MacArthur recaptured the city of Seoul.
Political involvement prolonged the war, resulting in high casualties.
President Truman stated in his 1952 Christmas Message:
“Our hearts turn first of all to our brave men and women in Korea.
“They are fighting and suffering and even dying that we may preserve the chance of peace in the world.”
Truman continued:
“Let us remember always to try to act…in the spirit of the Prince of Peace.
“He bore in His heart no hate and no malice – nothing but love for all mankind.
“We should…follow His example…
“As we pray for our men and women in Korea…let us also pray for our enemies…
“Through Jesus Christ the world will yet be a better and a fairer place.”
General Douglas MacArthur led the United Nations Command in the Korean War from 1950 to 1951.
He made a successful landing at Incheon, deep behind North Korean lines, and recaptured Seoul. To the Salvation Army, December 12, 1951, General Douglas MacArthur said:
“History fails to record a single precedent in which nations subject to moral decay have not passed into political and economic decline.
“There has been either a spiritual awakening to overcome the moral lapse, or a progressive deterioration leading to ultimate national disaster.”

IRS Axe Man Cometh
Like many conservatives, I once thought Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) was a solid, reliable conservative. Then he joined with the so-called "Gang of 8" in crafting a sellout amnesty proposal that Rubio and some others still claim isn't amnesty even though it clearly is. Now his liberal illegal immigration record in the Florida legislature is coming to light, and some things are suddenly becoming more clear.
Dr. Anthony Levantino is a New Mexico doctor who previously performed 1,200 abortions. After his own daughter died in a tragic accident, he began a process of self examination. He now realizes the truth about abortion.
Have you ever wondered why the RINOs--who despise the Tea Party and the icky conservatives who make it up--suddenly care about the fact that the IRS harassed Tea Party and other conservative groups? If you haven't, you should.
A good clip on multiculturalism from Thomas Sowell, explaining why culture is not to blame for disparities in income, education, or crime rates.
May 23, 2013 was a sad day for the Boy Scouts of America (BSA), and another tragic day for an America in decline. The Scouts' corporate-driven leaders in their folly put sexual morality up for a vote, and when it was all over, the Scouts as we once knew them -- a God-fearing, wholesome organization -- were finished.

"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 |
