D.C. Same-Sex Marriage Recognition in Court
by Kim Trobee, editor

Family groups argue people in the District should have the right to vote on the definition of marriage.

A federal appeals court heard arguments today in a case that would stop the recognition of same-sex unions in the District of Columbia and give people the chance to vote on the issue.

The Court of Appeals is under no time limit, but a decision is expected sometime this year.

The D.C. City Council voted to legalize same-sex marriage in December, and pro-family groups have been turned down by the Board of Elections several times as they tried to put together a ballot initiative.

God and Sex
The Apostle Paul wrote a letter to the Church in Rome to explain the good news that God has reached out and offered salvation and life to all those who are separated from Him by sin. Salvation and restoration are available to all who believe. Paul starts the letter by demonstrating mankind’s utter separation from […]
Unlikely Partners: Chinese Province Teaches Focus on the Family’s Abstinence Curriculum
Despite the nation’s atheism and suspicious nature, China’s Yunnan education ministry has embraced Focus on the Family’s abstinence and marriage education materials, to help manage the country’s shifting sexual mores and skyrocketing divorce rate. Nevertheless, “safe sex” advocates, including the U.S. State Department, the United Nations and liberal sex grou […]
Pro-Life Group Calls for Family Values Plank in Republican Legislative Blueprint
The Susan B. Anthony List (SBA List) launched today its “Life Speaking Out” campaign to encourage House Republicans to add a family values plank to its economy-laden Legislative Blueprint – expected to be released after Labor Day. The 1994 “Contract with America”–which jumpstarted the “Reagan Revolution”–failed to include pro-life or “family values” legislat […]
USAID Uses Taxpayer Funds to Push Abortion in Philippines
The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) is using taxpayer dollars to marketing contraceptives and “family planning” services to the Philippines. With the assistance of the Philippine government, USAID will launch a marketing campaign that focuses on “increasing modern contraceptive use through demand generation,” and “repackaging or se […]

He is God – not “the goddess”
On July 25, 2010, seven lesbian-, gay- or transgender-identified men and women were welcomed into the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America in a “rite of reconciliation” and a “rite of reception.” The group, known as the Sierra Pacific Synod Seven, or SPS7 had been ordained or worked under the ministry of a group known as “Extraordinary Lutheran Ministries, […]

Dear Gov. Schwarzenegger: Please Do Your Job
It’s pretty much well-known by now that California Governor Schwarzenegger and Attorney General Jerry Brown have stated that they don’t intend to appeal Judge Vaughn Walker’s Prop 8 decision, potentially preventing any appeal. A lawsuit seeking to force the Governor and the Attorney General to defend the constitutional amendment was quickly dismissed without […]

ADVICE TO GOP CANDIDATES: AVOID ADJECTIVES, NOUNS ARE GOOD ENOUGH
There is no need, this year, to load up negative ads with adjectives painting your opponents as evil, big spenders in the thrall of the DC establishment. The simple facts of your opponents’ voting records are enough to defeat them. Just the facts, ma’am. Republican negative ad writers always delight in describing the Stimulus package […]
GROUND ZERO MOSQUE: THE REAL ISSUE
The proposed mosque near to ground zero is not really a religious institution. It would be — as many mosques throughout the nation are — a terrorist recruitment, indoctrination and training center. It is not the worship of Islam that is the problem. It is the efforts to advance Sharia Law with its requirement of […]
WILL HOUSE DEMS RISK A ROUT?
Published in the New York Post on August 18, 2010 With Republican prospects looking ever better for this fall, the House Democratic Campaign Committee and the PACs that follow its lead face tough triage decisions: Who will they fund? Republicans need 39 seats to take away the Democrats’ majority, so the temptation is to focus […]
THE TEA PARTY RESCUES AMERICA
For a decade, the left owned the streets. Subsidized by George Soros and energized by the Clinton impeachment in the 90s and the Iraq War since, it dominated the Internet and grass roots campaigning. Michael Moore’s movies – however misguided – enthused their ranks and catalyzed their efforts. ACORN worked to commit massive voter fraud […]
MICHELLE’S TRAVELS WILL TRIGGER BACKLASH
During the early Clinton years — 1993 and 1994 — the first couple vacationed in Martha’s Vineyard hobnobbing with celebrities and cruising on Ted Kennedy’s yacht. The result was that during each of the two summers, as they into the surf, so they dived in the polls. The last drop, after the summer of 1994, […]
A CONTRACT WITH AMERICA FOR 2010
Published on TheHill.com on August 9, 2010 My observations from the campaign trail are that this year’s elections will be a total and complete disaster for the Democratic Party. In fact, it will amount to the obliteration of an entire generation of Democratic officeholders. It will become very rare to find a youngish baby boomer […]
WHY WE NEED TO LET STATES GO BROKE
Published in the New York Post on August 10, 2010 Federal Band-Aids won’t cover the fiscal problems of such states as New York, California, Michigan and Connecticut forever. State bankruptcy and fundamental restructuring of state and local finance — and labor relations — is at hand. Take Connecticut. In the current fiscal year, $2 billion […]
STRATEGIC MEMO TO REPUBLICANS: DEPERSONALIZE THE ELECTION
The Democratic strategy for the 2010 elections is becoming apparent: Make each Congressional and Senatorial election a contest between two people and avoid a contest over the issues. Knowing that they lose over Obamacare, the economy, the stimulus, the secret ballot in union elections, and cap and trade, the Democrats are determined to convert the […]
THE COMING CATASTROPHE: STATE GOVERNMENTS
As Congress reconvenes next week to pass a $26 billion bailout of state and local governments entombed in their own deficits, we witness a foretaste of the crisis that will be the central event of the first half of next year: the collapse of state governments. As long as the Democrats control Congress, they will […]
WIKILEAKS AFGHAN PAPERS KILLING OBAMA
As we suggested in our recent column, the new Gallup/USA Today poll confirms that Obama’s ratings have collapsed as a result of the WikiLeaks release of Afghan War memos. Down from 46% in the most recent poll, Obama’s job approval has plunged to 41% — the lowest it has ever been in any major poll. […]
