Democrats Moves To Outlaw Christianity
Lead Story by Matt Barber, BARBWIRE —
The mask is off. All pretense has been dropped, and the anti-Christian left’s boundless depth of hatred for individual liberty, our First Amendment and the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) is now on full display.
I wrote last week about the Supreme Court’s recent Hobby Lobby opinion, a rather tepid acknowledgement of every American’s non-negotiable right to religious free exercise (yes, that includes Christian business owners). I observed, among other things, that “the secularist left’s utter meltdown over having but a small measure of control over others wrested away is highly instructive.”
The meltdown continues. This week brings two new developments: 1) Democrats in Congress are readying a legislative “Hobby Lobby fix” that stands exactly zero chance of passing and would be struck down as unconstitutional even if it did, and 2) The ACLU, AFL-CIO, National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, Lambda Legal and a hodgepodge of other left-wing extremist groups have withdrawn support for the ironically tagged “Employment Non-Discrimination Act,” the crown jewel of homo-fascism, because the bill’s paper-thin “religious exemption” does not adequately outlaw the practice of Christianity.
The Hobby Lobby ‘Fix’
Addressing the high court’s Hobby Lobby decision on Tuesday, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., fumed, “We have so much to do this month, but the one thing we’re going to do during this work period – sooner rather than later – is to ensure that women’s lives are not determined by virtue of five white men.”
To which Justice Clarence Thomas replied, “Say what, honky?”
“This Hobby Lobby decision is outrageous,” continued Reid, “and we’re going to do something about it.”
Well, “do something about it” they shall try. TalkingPointsMemo.com reported on legislation Democrats introduced Thursday that would do away with religious liberty protections altogether:

They’ve stopped pretending, folks. This is about criminalizing Christianity. The Hobby Lobby decision has merely made secular liberals forget themselves momentarily. It’s blown back the propagandist curtain to expose their truly sinister aims. Hobby Lobby hasn’t put the “culture war” to rest. It’s taken a gavel to the “progressive” hornets’ nest.
Break out the popcorn and Jujubes. It’s about to get interesting. » Read Full Story...

Ex-Clinton strategist chastises Obama for ‘fool’s errand’ in Middle East
“It is absolutely intolerable that the United States would be sending aid to a government that is, at least in part, run by an organization dedicated to the destruction of one of our key allies. I don’t see how we provide aid under those circumstances,” he said..“Israel offered the Palestinians 97 percent of what they said they wanted at the end of the Clinton administration in 2000. They walked away because they’re not prepared to make peace. Those who burden Israel with the task of making peace singularly are completely off base.”...

Freedom Outpost —
The new leader of the Islamic State, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi (or as the Common Constitutionalists refers to him, "Bag Daddy"), has not yet given his support to Hamas, the group that has terrorist ties to the Council on American-Islamic Relations. Many are asking why he is not supporting Hamas' efforts to fight against Israel. According to an Islamic State spokesman, it's because they have their eyes on attacking America first..It's past time to be providing foreign aid to Muslim countries and being involved in the Middle East. It's past time to be coddling Islam in America and it is past time for Americans to stop being afraid of Islam and stand up to it and kill the ideology dead… as dead as the false prophet that started the Islamic ideology.» Congressman Stockman: Not Even Boehner Can Stop Lois Lerner’s Arrest
Tea Party News Network (TPNN) —
On Thursday, Congressman Steve Stockman announced that he and several colleagues filed an official resolution calling for the House Sergeant-at-Arms to arrest Lois Lerner, a key figure in the Obama IRS targeting scandal, for contempt of Congress. Congressman Stockman said in his announcement on Thursday that “Asking the Justice Department to prosecute Lois Lerner for admittedly illegal activity is a joke.” “The Senate or the president can’t veto it or interfere, and under the orders of the House, she would be arrested and brought to a jail. She has to respond,” Stockman said, explaining Lerner’s long history of persecuting conservatives, going back to her time working at the FEC...» Rep. Marsha Blackburn To Newsmax: Illegal Minors Pawns In Obama’s ‘Game’
Newsmax —
Thousands of illegal immigrant children who have been arrested for crossing the U.S. border are merely pawns "in a political game" by President Barack Obama, Rep. Marsha Blackburn charged to Newsmax on Saturday. "I find it just horrific that these children would be used for a political point," the Tennessee Republican said after touring a detention center at Fort Sill Army Base in Oklahoma. "I have a tremendous amount of compassion for these children who are in this situation right by themselves...» Our Military Has To Worry About The Enemy In The White House!
Gabe Zolna, YouTube —
Warning: Compassionate Language Might Be Offensive To Some Viewers. The Administration is cutting our Military back from 525,000 to 450,000 and they are blaming the cutbacks on sequestration. At the same time, Obama wants Congress to give him $3.7 billion dollars for the illegal children that have invaded our borders. About Gabe: The majority of my posted video's, are to try and highlight what is really going on with our criminal, and dysfunctional Administration. I have found that far too many American's are totally clueless about most of the current issues that will ultimately dramatically impact their, ours, and our future generations lives...» Abject Disdain For Our Military: Troops Get Pink Slips In Combat
Allen B. West —
There is stupid and then there is simply absurd. The Obama administration is sending pink slips to troops while they’re serving in a war zone. I remember being a young captain returning home after Operation Desert Shield/Storm and the decision was made to conduct a RIF (Reduction in Force). Officers were given a choice to voluntarily separate, which many did, or be involuntarily separated, based on performance reviews. But this decision came after the combat operation had ceased. Leave it to the Obama administration to do something so amazingly dumb it takes your breath away...» Hamas to Fleeing Palestinians: Back in Your Houses!
Israel Today —
Israel on Sunday gave the residents of northern Gaza several hours to evacuate the area ahead of an expected escalation of the Jewish state’s military response to ongoing missile and rocket fire that has effectively placed five million Israelis under siege. The goal of Israel’s telephone, leaflet and other media messages was to as much as possible avoid civilian casualties as it seeks to deal Hamas the kind of blow that will deter future flare-ups. But Hamas was unwilling to lose its most prized weapon in the battle against Israel: human shields. The group ordered the thousands of Palestinians who had already left the area to return to their homes immediately.» Obama To Mock Christianity By Honoring Apostate SBC Pastor At White House LGBT Pride Celebration
Obama loves to humiliate and belittle Christian values
Now The End Begins —
Christian News reports that an apostate former Southern Baptist pastor, who endorsed homosexuality in a recent sermon, has been invited to attend a ‘gay pride’ reception at the White House with President Obama. As previously reported, Danny Cortez leads New Heart Community Church in southern California. Earlier this year, Cortez surprised his Baptist congregation by declaring that he has accepted a pro-homosexual position. “This is a huge step for a Southern Baptist church!!” Cortez ecstatically wrote in a letter to a Patheos blogger. “So now, we will accept the LGBT community even though they may be in a relationship...» Judge Jeanine Pirro: Obama Deliberately Encouraging Illegal Immigration
Judge Jeanine Pirro tonight blasted President Barack Obama for the illegal immigration crisis, accusing him of attempting to change the demographics and electorate of the U.S From “Justice with Judge Jeanine”, July 12, 2014 » Video Source

The latest: a Trojan horse adding to a long line of scandals, screw ups, shocking stupidity, or maybe shocking shrewdness. Yes, a Trojan horse using children to advance his political party, his agenda and his legacy. As coyotes – human smugglers hired to bring children into the United States – deliver them by the thousands with the help of Mexico - a public health danger, a law enforcement nightmare and yet another tax burden is created, courtesy of Barack Obama.

Now you say, “Come on, these are babies! This is a humanitarian crisis.” And I say, “We all love babies, but most of the ‘babies’ coming here are between the ages of 14 and 17, and three-quarters of those 14 to 17-year-olds are males.” So much for that image of Border Patrol spending all their time changing diapers. And I've got more bad news for you: gang signs located at the holding facilities entice those male teens to join MS-13, one of the most violent gangs in the world...Border Security
