Paling Campaign Speech in Johnstown, PA Gov. Palin gave a remarkable pro-life speech today in Johnstown, PA--one that deserves its own thread. It is a powerful, hard-hitting, emotionally touching witness to the pro-life cause delivered sincerely by a loving mother and determined leader. It's easily the best pro-life speech given by any politician this entire campaign. For those who want to get directly to her pro-life comments, that portion of the nearly 30 minute speech begins approximately at the 00:12:40 mark as she talks about children with special needs. From there she segues into the larger issue of abortion....

MISOGYNISTIC LESBIAN FEMINISTS RAGE OVER SARAH PALIN They started by burning their bras while cowardly men were burning their draft cards. Current exemplars have now burned and trashed their most fundamental philosophy that women are as good as or better than the male of the species. They are, of course, so-called “feminists” who have finally come full circle in their beliefs and are back to where they started, if not even worse off. The impetus, the catalyst, for feminism’s devolution is one Sarah Palin, Governor of Alaska and Republican nominee for the vice presidency of the United States. You would...

When 42,769 Freepers Join Together, Who Can Stand In Our Way? There was a poll question I alerted everyone one here to. As the case usually is, Freepers answered the sound of the charge and made a difference. There is no site on the Web that can brag about this kind of response from it's members. We come together in the hope that we can change that which we do not agree with. As was the case in this Poll on Intelligent Design vs Evolution, when we get together in mass we always make a difference. Imagine, In a just...

FIRSTHAND NEWS FROM MISSIONARIES IN OBAMA’S KENYA The following unconfirmed communication was received from Kyle-Ann Shiver of CommonSenseRegained.com: Dear Readers, This came in from a reader I know well…need to pass this on as well. The experiences recounted last week by Jerome Corsi in Kenya are confirmed by this earlier communication and should be heeded. [Corsi, author of Obamanation, was recently “detained” in Kenya for “political activities” relating to promoting his book: http://www.cnsnews.com/public/content/article.aspx?RsrcID=37221 and http://tammybruce.com/2008/10/jerome_corsi_deported_from_ken.php. That “detention” adds credibility to the letter from two missionaries in Kenya.] Celeste and Loren Davis are Missionaries in Africa and can shed some firsthand...

The attacks that we see across the Islamic world on non-Muslims by Muslims are once again on the rise in the USA. The Muslim attackers even told the gay man that he would be stoned to death in their country. Such a "peaceful" religion.

FARRAKHAN’S MESSIAH SPEAKS! I’m getting too old to be afraid of much, aside from high blood pressure and a high cholesterol count, but Louie Farrakhan scares the hell out of me. See this video of him waxing poetic and orgasmically enthused over an Obama presidency: http://www.worldnetdaily.com/?pageId=77539. (Please also see previous articles referencing Farrakhan: “Race in America,” http://www.genelalor.com/blog1/?p=476, “Obama’s Muslim Faith Outed, Again!” http://www.genelalor.com/blog1/?p=444, and “Black Reparations and Your Wallet,” http://www.genelalor.com/blog1/?p=174.) Less than affectionately known as Calypso Louie to Rush Limbaugh, Farrakhan is quite probably the most dangerous man in America, a title that will be passed to Barack Obama should...

John McCain asked us at the GOP convention to stand up and fight with him. We are fighting, but why isn’t Sen. McCain?I was encouraged when I saw the news of people at his events, filled with anger and calling for Sen. McCain to fight. But then today we saw him almost endorse B. Hussein Obama. Does Sen. McCain not understand our anger? We are not mad at Sen. McCain. Even those of us who don't agree with some of his political positions share an enormous respect him for the sacrifices he has made his entire life for our country....

Friday, October 10, 2008 Church of Scotland Backs Islamic Sharia law Courts Europe continues with its slow suicide, as they continue to bend over backwards for group of people who want to destroy them. All this is aided by Christian leaders. Earlier this year the Archbishop of Canterbury UK took a stand for the introduction of Sharia Courts into Britain which has lead to Sharia courts actually handing criminal cases instead of just civil cases. It is already been proven that Muslims in Britain are not happy with having their own courts along side British law, as they are preaching...

Folks I am going to do something I have never done, I am going to go back in the archives and revive a earlier post because I think it is absolutely crucial to read. With each passing day I am more convicted that my predictions are correct. Please, please, please take time to look at these links, consider your faith and make sure that you are believing in Jesus as the ONLY way to get you to Heaven. I believe we are at the end times and I believe that Obama is going to win this election and then turn...

This is a commentary on two articles about Obama, one from Mere Rhetoric and another from the WSJmore

Presidential nominee Senator Barack Obama (D-Ill) confided to a close group of Democratic supporters that it has been revealed to him that he is a “symbol of hope for all mankind.” “The world has been stumbling in the darkness,” Obama proclaimed. “I am the doorway to a brighter future. I am the light of the world for these troubled times.” In support of his claim, the Illinois senator told of how “everywhere I go, the children sing my virtues. They have a wisdom untainted by a corrupt society. It is a model for the rest of humanity.” Obama said he...

In yet another instance, a prominent and controversial figure claims that Obama is the messiah. Louis Farrakhan calls Barack Obama The Messiahwhen will people wake up to this? How can this man be ahead in the polls?

Why the name Hussein? Our new Commander in Chief will be the leader of the free world, head of the executive branch and will affect our laws. He is Head of State, making foreign policy decisions, and he will lead the U.S. military.The person who is voted into office on November 4th will do so during a time of great financial turmoil in our country. There are many decisions to be made about our relationships overseas. Therefore, I really do care to know everything about the candidates. I care about honesty, integrity, and character. We are molded by our experiences,...

The Supreme Minister of the Nation of Islam, the National Representative of Elijah Muhammad. An African American critic of American society. Farrakhan a neighbor of Barack and Michelle Obama on the south side of Chicago, and part time at a Nation of Islam farm in New Buffalo, Michigan declared Barack Obama as the Messiah in a video taped this year.

This is a follow up to yesterday's story U.S. Judge Allows 17 Muslim Prisoners to Roam Free on our Streets. Which can be read here. With a show of common sense the White House and the Justice Department have come out against having them from being released here. The prisoners are pro-Sharia detainees, who have even admitted that they under went weapon training in Afghanistan. I have just one question for the judge who ordered the prisoners to be released in our backyard

Seven years after the World Trade Center attack, as Jews around the world atone and fast, seeking forgiveness and a renewal of spirit, I sit at my computer with an uneasy feeling about the future of America and Israel, as well as my own personal financial situation. It surely is not the best of times. I am not a religious Jewish person, and have attended temple only sporadically since I was Bar Mitzvah'd many years ago. But I do pray, and I often join in with the prayers of my Christian FRiends here. I joined your prayers for the Lord...

Esther, a woman of deep faith, courage and patriotism. The Scriptures describe her as a woman raised up as an instrument God for a great purpose. I read the following email from my sister and wanted to pass it along to you: the incredible first person account of Mark Arnold from Lebanon, Ohio, and his encounter with John McCain and Sarah Palin. This past Tuesday, the McCain / Palin Bus came through a little town called, Lebanon , Ohio . The LORD allowed me to go to the Rally giving them a message that He wanted me to personally deliver....

I received a call from one of the leading members of my congregation. His teenage son had gone on an outing with friends to the beach. One of the young men in the car asked him to stop at the local AM/PM Mini-mart in order to buy a bag of ice. On the way out the door, the young man picked up a carton of beer and, upon entering the car said to my friend’s son, “Let’s get out of here. Step on it!” Not knowing what was happening, he complied. That evening my friend’s son had been arrested for...

Okay, I cannot take it any more. I have went off the deep end and have lost sanity. Or perhaps I am more sane than most. I consider myself a modestly intelligent man. What I am about to say will surely cause many of you to label me a "wacko." I don't care, I cannot take it any longer. Days after I warned that I may now be the crazy man standing on the corner, I am convinced that I am not crazy, rather, the rest of the world is. I believe that the United States is on the brink...

Over at the Weekly Standard, Willy Stern has some interesting theories (that are not connected to degree of religious observance) as to why Israel's Jews overwhelmingly support John Sidney McCain's quest for the American Presidency (Hat Tip: Hot Air).

U.S. District Judge Ricardo M. Urbina has ordered 17 Chinese Muslims to be freed from Guantanamo Bay and be allowed to take up residence within the USA. This must be some kind of liberal logic. We capture them on the battle field in another continent and then we allow them to roam free here. Sure sounds like a good deal for them, but not so much for us. Did it ever cross the judge's mind that they might not be so loyal to our country after being locked up for nearly 7 years?

Bogus or real propaganda (from the secret communist headquarters in 1919), the following rules for revolution suggest to us Americans that change may be right around corner of the upcoming election. Each requirement for revolution has already been met by the liberals’ socialist agenda. A. Corrupt the young. Get them away from religion. Get them interested in sex. Make them superficial, destroy their ruggedness. ( today’s culture ) B. Get control of all means of publicity and thereby: 1. Get people’s minds off their government. Get them interested in sex, books and plays (films and T.V. and music) and other...

For those of us who are starting to be more and more alarmed with Senator Obama, this video of him mocking the Bible does nothing to ease our fears.commonsensicalcat.blogspot.com

Great fears floating through the internet threads that we are in "end times" because of the worldwide financial crises. Not so. At least not according to everything I've read about the "end times." That won't happen until the temple in Jerusalem is (again) rebuilt. Worldwide financial collapse is also predicted as a portent of advancing the end times, but what is this current crises all about then? Well, in my own opinion, this current financial mess is a big fat warning to take a good look at ourselves and what we believe. If you've had thoughts running around in the...

Newly appointed UK Immigration Minister Phil Woolas has vowed to set limits on those migrating to the Kingdom. Mr. Woolas who in the past has angered Muslims by stating the Pakistanis are increasing the risk of birth defects by marrying their first cousins (obviously even giving Muslims good advice angers them) and that burqa wearing Muslim women could spark resentment throughout the UK has quickly been labeled by Muslims as an Islamophobe.

As I was listening to this morning's crushing stock market news, another headline picture jumped out at me. It looked like some sort of new science fiction movie, but it was just Pierre Cardin's new spring/sumer line. I like to look for connections, and I believe there is a tie between our economic free fall and our cultural free fall. I suspect fashion designers lunge at the outrageous to get attention, and my daughters assure me that no sane woman ever wears this stuff, unless they are getting paid for it, but the very idea of even proposing it seems...

"Palestinian" Savages - Arab Palestinian SvageryDealing with Savages... [July 19, 2008 ] Four times since 1948 the Arab countries have attacked Israel with the objective of exterminating every Jew who lived there.

Fear, if not conquered, will continue to repeat its vicious cycle. Moving the clock forward a few years, many may remember in 1999 during the time of Y2K that people became fearful about what would happen at the turn of this century. There were some who wrote books that fueled the spirit of fear in people. Today we can see that we made that turn into the 21st century, and our society did not go under as predicted. This does not mean there couldn’t be difficult economic times in the future, but those who live by faith in God’s Word...

DARFUR - ARAB RACISM & ISLAMIST OPPRESSION UN peacekeepers are needed urgently, but the key to lasting peace in Darfur is the overthrow of the Islamist dictatorship This is an edited version of Peter Tatchell's Comment Is Free article, published on The Guardian website, Friday 15 September 2006 After the horrors of Rwanda , Tony Blair and other world leaders promised they would never again allow genocide to happen. Despite these fine words, another genocide is happening right now in Darfur and the international community is failing to protect the victims. If these massacres were happening to white people...

We have all seen him, the gray-bearded scruffy looking homeless man that stands on the corner of every mid to large sized city in the United States with a sign that says "Repent! The end is near." We probably thought - crazy homeless guy, it sure is a shame that he isn't in a facility that can help him. But what if, what if, THIS TIME crazy homeless guy is right? What is worse, what if this time crazy homeless guy is you....or me. When my community organizing diehard Democrat aunt and uncle told me they were forsaking their party...

For years I have telling people in the United States to look towards the United Kingdom to see what is coming our way in regards to Islam. It is obvious that suing organizations in the name of their religion and obtaining terror literature are common plays out the Islamic game plan. Just about a week ago I reported about the UK Muslim who is suing a supermarket because he had to handle alcohol while working there. This past weekend Brooklyn Muslim Hisham Khaleel, 35 was busted with fake id's, terror literature and he has a past history of suing organizations...

I see it so often that someone logs onto a thread and proclaims it to be a waste of time that it begs the question: Why log onto the thread at all? Isn't it by definition a waste of time? We saw that a lot on Duncan Hunter threads, now on the certifigate threads. I'm sure there are some religion threads that would qualify. So I offer this thread where Freepers can log on and let other freepers which ones they consider to be a waste of time. Maybe at some point in time we'll have the capability to filter...

"This Is A War Of Destiny Between Infidelity And Islam." (Text Of Bin Laden's Audio Message To Muslims In Iraq, Posted On Jihadist Websites, 12/28/04) "Those who know nothing of Islam pretend that Islam counsels against war. Those [who say this] are witless. Kill all the unbelievers just as they would kill you all!" Islam Is Not a Religion of Pacifists (1942)-- Ayatollah Ruhallah Khomeini In 1996 and then again in 1998 Osama bin Laden issued two fatawa -- that Muslims should "kill civilians and military personnel from the United States and allied countries until they withdraw military forces from...

The UK Islamic group called Islam4UK has been holding lectures across the UK Midlands. Islam4UK is preaching for Muslims to bring violent jihad to the streets of the UK as their leader is the hate preaching exiled Omar Bakri Muhammad. One of the lectures was billed as “Kufr Laws to be Extinct”. The group was even so kind enough to lay out how a comparison chart showing the differences between the current UK law and the brutal laws that Islam will bring. This can be seen here.

“Fuhgeddaboudit! It’s Who You Know. Press On” (Philippians 3:4b-14)OK, let’s get this out of the way first. That part in today’s Epistle where it says, “Whatever gain I had, I counted as loss. . . . Indeed, I count everything as loss. . . .” No, St. Paul was not a Cubs fan! Just wanted to clear that up right off the bat. But now to more serious matters. . . . We just said, when we confessed the Nicene Creed, “And I look for the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come.” OK, so...

Islamic Ethnic cleansing in Luton Luton police are finally taking the ethnic cleansing of elderly and vulnerable white and black residents living within the Bury Park area of Luton seriously, so serious now that they are treating the investigation like a murder enquiry. This is nothing but pure religious hatred and racism aimed at non-Moslem residents who are currently living within a Moslem dominated area - Ethnic cleansing so Moslem's can buy up their properties. Video's of the elderly residents can be viewed here: Ethnic cleansing The DI investigating this crime has "STATED" their is no evidence to say these...

Leave it to Dolly Parton to find something in common with the governor of Alaska. In an interview with Extra that airs Friday (Oct. 3), Parton said, “I can relate to Sarah Palin. I always say we’re very much alike. Both small town girls. Both [sic] a Pentecostalism, and we both carry an AK-47.” I’m not so sure a country legend and an Alaskan governor are really bearing Russian assault rifles, no matter how pro-NRA Palin is. And I don’t know how truly Pentecostal Palin is anymore. But the important thing is, Parton has proven that she can connect with...

Which is the Most Dangerous? Filed under: Uncategorized — David @ 2:18 pm A few days ago, Salon.com ran an essay from Camille Paglia in which she presented her case for abortion. She proceeded with Nietzschean logic to assert that the pro-choice crowd must stop hiding behind solipist logic and admit that abortion is murder. It is clearly the assertion of deadly power of the strong over the weak. However, it is justifiable murder because it preserves a woman’s autonomy…in her own words: Hence I have always frankly admitted that abortion is murder, the extermination of the powerless by the...

Currently, they have driven my positives below 50% on the poll on the bottom of my website about how having Sarah on the ticket is affecting your vote. While having her on there may truly have changed some people's minds to the negative, I seriously doubt that 40% of the people visiting my website with good intentions would seriously say she has hurt their vote. So, I open up to all praying Freepers the opportunity to Freep my poll.

This might be an exercise in what the French call "shooting at the ambulance", or kicking someone when they are down. But here's a look at the French reaction to Sarah Palin. Like the Gallic adoration of Barack Obama, the French view of John McCain's vice-presidential choice has been simplified by the cultural filter. The personnage of Palin and the initial enthusiasm she generated were puzzling for a country that disdains displays of faith and moral certainty. Her convention joke about hockey moms being pitbulls with lipstick took a lot of explanation. In le Monde, the elegant Dominique Dhombres explained...

Prosperity Gospel helps bankrupt America Friday October 3, 2008 posted by Rod Dreher @ 1:51pm The foul, vomitous, from-the-pit-of-hell Prosperity Gospel, it turns out, played a role in the housing and credit implosion. From Time: While researching a book on black televangelism, says Jonathan Walton, a religion professor at the University of California Riverside, he realized that Prosperity's central promise -- that God would "make a way" for poor people to enjoy the better things in life -- had developed an additional, toxic expression during sub-prime boom. Walton says that this encouraged congregants who got dicey mortgages to believe "God...

He is focusing on the wrong book and shoveling a molehill when he should be scaling an entirely different mountain. In a piece over on NRO (a piece where he tries, unsuccessfully I think, to weld together two separate issues), Maxwell decries witch hunts, both literary and human. He brings up Christianity’s much bemoaned centuries of Inquisition, which included witch hunts—the most famous of which happened in Salem, Massachusetts. After this obligatory pilgramage to the Mecca of Christian-bashing, he notes that hundreds of women have been accused of being witches and suffered for it in modern-day Africa, and that the...

Rod Dreher, a self described "crunchy con" blogger has, over the last week or so, become a wildly ardent critic of Sarah Palin, actually going on morning tv and Larry King, who used him to demonstrate conservatives think Palin's unfit to serve... Slipped over the edge and revealed his own lack of belief in democracy for anyone but himself as well... He's calling for "an acceptable dictator" apparently be installed and then we leave Afghanistan, on his blog at beliefnet. With friends like this, conservatives don't need enemies. Other wacky statements like "Well, look, I can read the newspaper, and...

As a McCain supporter it pains me to say this, but Obama is far superior in one aspect to John McCain - getting out the votes. As a former community organizer and with connections to ACORN and other grassroot organizations you can bet that Obama's minions are many and they will be doing whatever it takes to get out the vote and put their spin on things to media outlets. That fact coupled with the fact that the majority of the mainstream media and the drive-by media is supporting Obama and it means those undecided voters or waivering Democrats are...

By Fjordman September 30 2008 The following essay is an amalgam of my previous online essays, among them Who Are We, Who Are Our Enemies — The Cost of Historical Amnesia, Why We Should Oppose an Independent Kosovo, Refuting God’s Crucible and The Truth About Islam in Europe. The Jihad, the Islamic so-called Holy War, has been a fact of life in Europe, Asia, Africa and the Near and Middle East for more than 1300 years, but this is the first history of the Muslim wars in Europe ever to be published. Hundreds of books, however, have appeared on its...
