Texas Senator Ted Cruz is as beloved by conservatives as he is reviled by liberals in both the Democrat and “Republican” Parties. When Cruz came home to Texas last weekend, he was met by 750 Texans in San Antonio who gave him an 8-minute standing ovation. However, he received an even longer (13 minutes) ovation in Arlington on Monday.

Richard Viguerie at Conservative HQ examines the idea of starting a third party alternative to the RINO-led Republican Party-an idea that has been growing in popularity since the rise of the Tea Party movement four years ago, and even more popular now that the “Republican” leadership in congress has once again caved to Democrats in the fight against ObamaCare. Since even Sean Hannity expressed support for a third party recently, Viguerie felt it was time to address the issue-and rebut it.

What is REAL and REALITY today in American politics? Well… that a good question, but in all honesty who will really hear ETERNAL REALITY?? The common denominator however across the American political spectrum is the rejection of Almighty God’s Heavenly summons to repent and to be saved. Will the Left hear Almighty God’s Heavenly summons? NO… not at all. Will the Moderates hear?? No… they will not! They are confusion themselves. Will the conservatives hear? Tragically, the majority of them will not.

CitizenLink provides this report on Common Core educational standards, and some of the reasons why many people are concerned about them.
