Gun Control - Second Amendment 2012-02-04T00:27:20+00:00 Bay St, Toronto, Ontario, M5G 1H1, Canada http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/44401 http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/44401#When:00:22:02Z Sacramento, Calif. - For the second consecutive year, the nation’s largest grassroots pro-troop organization, Move America Forward, is raising money for US Troops overseas with a special “FANTASY SUPERBOWL” drive to send care packages to troops in need serving in Afghanistan. Military 2012-02-04T00:22:02+00:00 Bay St, Toronto, Ontario, M5G 1H1, Canada http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/44378 http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/44378#When:22:34:39Z During the last presidential election, Catholics voted by a margin of 55-45% for the most pro-death President in history. Of course, he started out by covering up the crucifix at Georgetown before delivering a speech, so as not to offend Muslims or Atheists, proceeded to declare that “America is not a Christian nation,”, then bowed before a Saudi king. Therefore, should we be surprised when this secular humanist, pro-abortion President now attacks religious freedom by backing regulations which force Catholic hospitals—against their will and the tenets of their religion—to fund and or even perform abortions or risk sanctions and closure?

All too many members of the conservative media, including even some highly reputable ones, took his nonsense seriously.

He argued that Americans believed that wealth could be created while Europeans believed it could only be redistributed. Americans and Europeans would both answer “I do!” to the question “Who wants to be a millionaire?” The difference was that Americans believed it was possible, with the right combination of intelligence, hard work, a little luck and good timing, to become a millionaire. Europeans held no such illusions.

For instance, the way some writers try to fit American history into the mold of the Roman Empire – now we’re in the Imperial Era, with George Bush as our Claudius, and Obama as our Nero, mourning the lost days of the old Republic.

Of course a government mandate to buy a product is not a “free market” solution, it is a slave market solution. Using a government mandate may be a market based solution but there is nothing free about it. The purchaser isn’t free not to buy. The seller is only able to move the product through coercion and has to qualify with the government to be able to force-sell the product.

This report, “EPA Should Strengthen Records Management on Clean Water Act Section 404 Permit Notification Reviews for Surface Coal Mining,” delved more deeply into findings from the initial November 2011 OIG report requested by Senator Inhofe that confirmed that EPA, through its own actions, systematically slows the pace of permit evaluations in Appalachia. These findings were concerning enough to warrant the Inspector General to instigate this follow-up review.

Georgia law mandates that candidates meet constitutional and statutory requirements for the office that they seek. O.C.G.A. § 21-2-5(a). Mr. Obama is a candidate for federal office who has been certified by the state executive committee of a political party, and therefore must, under Georgia Code Section 21-2-5, meet the constitutional and statutory qualifications for holding the Office of the President of the United States. Id. The United States Constitution requires that a President be a “natural born [c]itizen.” U.S. Const. art. II, § 1, cl. 5.

Wexler served as then-senator Barack Obama’s chief booster in the American Jewish community during the 2008 presidential campaign. He appeared everywhere and said anything to convince the American Jewish community that the same man who sat in the church pews listening to Rev. Jeremiah Wright’s anti-Semitic vitriol for two decades, and listed among his closest friends and associates a host of Israel-haters as well as former terrorists, was the greatest friend Israel could ever have.

Those numbers are of course good news, another positive sign of recovery, and another clear indication of the enduring strength of the American economy and American economic system. But, really, so long after recession’s end, we should be doing much better — and would be but for President Barack Obama’s debilitating anti-growth policies. In reality, the economy is recovering despite — not because of — Obama’s policies. Make no mistake: 243,000 jobs is good, but we should be seeing numbers upwards of 350,000. America can and should do better.
