THE PRESIDENCY
OBAMA'S STEM CELL LIE- There is a huge difference between adult stem cells and embryonic stem cells. Adult stem cell research has provided real cures for real illnesses. I have met and shaken hands with a man who had all his Parkinson's disease symptoms relieved by adult stem cell treatment. On the other hand, embryonic stem cells have provided no cures and have actually caused injury. The embryonic stem cell "science" is obsolete and there is just nothing there that will ever help anyone. Why then did President Obama begin taxpayer funding of this obsolete science? He claimed he did it to cure five illnesses he listed, but it was adult stem cells that have yielded the cures in all five areas. Is Obama just flat out ignorant on the subject, OR is he satisfying the pro-death lobby in the Democrat party that wants to play with embryos to prove they are just cells and not real people? If that is the case perhaps Obama should invite a snowflake baby to the White House. Snowflake babies develop from embryos adopted from suspended animation. Read US News, "Why Embryonic Stem Cells are Obsolete."

ARCHBISHOP HITS SEBELIUS NOMINATION - There is an angry reaction from the Catholic Church to President Obama's selection of Governor Kathleen Sebelius to head Health and Human Resources (HHS). "As a Roman Catholic, her appointment [as Secretary of Health and Human Services] is the source of the greatest embarrassment because she has publicly and repeatedly betrayed her Catholic Faith..." said Archbishop Raymond L. Burke. Read more

Meanwhile, yet another woman has been rushed to the hospital from the abortion clinic in Kansas run by George Tiller, whom Governor Sebelius honored at the governor's mansion with a party. He also faces criminal charges for late term abortions. Read more

THE CONGRESS
BROWNBACK TO CLINTON: IRAQI CHRISTIANS NEED HELP - Former Senator Hillary Clinton, who is now Secretary of State, is receiving numerous letters from congressmen and Senators about her human rights policy. I previously reported on a letter to her by Congressman Wolf, and now Senator Sam Brownback has also written her a letter concerning Iraqi Christians. Apparently the Obama Administration has no interest in human rights, and has dispatched Hillary Clinton to China and the Middle East to borrow money for the President's agenda. You read that right: Hillary Clinton has asked the Chinese and the Saudis to please continue to buy U.S. Treasury bonds so Obama can spend and spend and spend. Meanwhile people in China and the "Muslim world" suffer repression, as Obama and Clinton look the other way. See Brownback letter.

WOLF HOUNDS THE FBI - During most of the Bush Administration, the FBI turned for advice on "Islamic issues" to a group with terrorist ties, the Council on American-Islamic Relations. Then, there was an investigation of American fund raisers accused of funneling money to Hamas. This case resulted in criminal convictions, and CAIR was listed as an unindicted co-conspirator. The FBI claimed it was severing its ties to Council on American-Islamic Relations, but it appears that may not be the case. Congressman Frank Wolf (R-VA) is demanding answers from the FBI, and all he is getting is the run around. What exactly is the FBI's relationship with this group? Read more

CONGRESSWOMAN WATERS TELLS THE TRUTH? - Can a liberal congresswoman like Maxine Waters actually tell the truth and expose the real agenda of the Obama/Pelosi regime? Waters, with a slip of the tongue, told oil executives exactly what the liberals (socialists) in the Congress want: the nationalization of the oil companies. View the video of her statement and you will be shocked. Please pass the link on for others to view as well. View here!

CULTURE AND RELIGION
REAGAN TRIED TO CONVERT SOVIET LEADER - An American whose job it was to take notes at a summit meeting between President Ronald Reagan and Soviet Leader Mikhail Gorbachev, recalled an attempt by our President to convert the Soviet leader from atheism. Rudolf Perina said, "Reagan thought he could convert Gorbachev, or make him see the light." The President used a story about how his own son was an atheist and how he would like to convert him to a view of faith. Read the full story in the Wall Street Journal.

INTERNATIONAL
HILLARY CLINTON IS BLIND TO ABUSE OF WOMEN - In Saudi Arabia, a 75-year-old widow was sentenced to 40 lashes with a whip and four months in prison for "mingling" with two young men, one of whom was her nephew, because they brought her some bread. Don't hold your breath waiting for Secretary of State Clinton or President Obama to say a word about this injustice. Instead Clinton flew to the Middle East to beg the Saudis to continue buying U.S. Treasury Bonds so President Obama can continue his spending spree. Read more

BRITISH MP KISSES GAZA STRIP GROUND - Just a few weeks after the cowards who run the UK government refused entry to Geert Wilders, a member of the UK Parliament appeared in the Gaza strip and kissed the ground while railing insults toward Israel. Sort of puts things in perspective, doesn't it? Because of the Muslim influence in the UK, the nation has become officially anti-Semitic and it would be wise for Jews to get out while they still can.
