Random links of interest, concern or curiosity from the past week or so, that deserve at least a SHORT mention:
Catholic University Bans Catholic Group over Catholicism ~ Yes, you read that correctly. Gonzaga University, a Roman Catholic university in Spokane, Wash., has refused to allow students to organize a Knights of Columbus chapter on campus because… the group only admits Catholics 😯
Philadelphia abortion clinic horror ~ Kirsten Powers, the only truly thoughtful liberal on Fox News, is spot-on in this piece about the media’s deafening silence on the trial of abortion doctor butcher Kermit Gosnell ~
Let me state the obvious. This should be front page news. When Rush Limbaugh attacked Sandra Fluke, there was non-stop media hysteria. The venerable NBC Nightly News’ Brian Williams intoned, “A firestorm of outrage from women after a crude tirade from Rush Limbaugh,” as he teased a segment on the brouhaha. Yet, accusations of babies having their heads severed — a major human rights story if there ever was one — doesn’t make the cut.
The msm is happy to exploit the Newtown tragedy to advance gun control, but they don’t even mention the Gosnell trial ~ If Gosnell had shot seven infants with an AR-15, it would be national news: Rep. Chris Smith (on the U.S. House floor, April 11th)
More msm malpractice ~ Bozell: ABC, CBS, NBC ‘Deliberately Censoring’ Bad News on Obamacare. Brent Bozell, president of the Media Research Center, reports that a recent survey shows;
…two out of three Democrats now believe that Obamacare will hurt them or not help them. Overall, 78 percent of the American people now believe that Obamacare is going to hurt them, not help them. Only 15 percent of the American public believes that Obamacare is going to help them…
Who knew? Hardly anyone!
Bible Verses Obama Seems to Have Missed ~ Recall Satan tempting Jesus in the desert? (“For it is written…”) He’s fond of misinterpreting scripture also.
Vade retro me, Satana!
(Detroit) Archbishop Vigneron: Gay Marriage Supporters Should Refrain From Communion ~ Uh-oh Padre. Beware the intolerance of the politically correct gestapo.
Food Stamp Rolls in America Now Surpass the Population of Spain ~ Amazing eh? (Comparisons are always effective in understanding facts and figures.) And this article is two months old. It’s probably even worse now.
Banished! Historic ‘Don’t Tread On Me’ flag ~ When they start banning an historic symbol of American liberty, you can bet the country is pretty much finished.
The yellow Gadsden flag featuring a coiled snake and the phrase, “Don’t Tread On Me” is steeped in U.S. history dating back to its founding. It has been used by Marines and the Navy since 1775 and is often flown at Marine Corp bases and on Navy warships.
