Today the "Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act" (HR 1797) authored by Trent Franks (R-AZ) passed the House by a vote of 228-196, mostly along party lines. LifesiteNews has more commentary and the roll call. There was some "crossing of the aisle"on both sides. I regret that Eric Cantor decided to add the usual "rape and incest" canards to the bill, in essence denying the right to life for those so conceived.
The Messiah Most Miserable has threatened to veto the bill should it reach his desk, uttering some nonsense about "trampling". Meanwhile it is he who has trampled all over unborn children by opposing partial birth abortion bans, smooching up to Planned Parenthood, etc etc.
Harry Reid will most likely never let a comparable bill get to the Senate floor. This is why we must change the composition of both Congressional houses in 2014 - and that means GOP leadership.

Some Religions Are More Equal Than Others
How Orwellian the Obama regime has become. We hear now that the Department of Justice (of AP-email-snooping infamy) is rattling its saber against those of us who dare question the portrayal of Islam as a "religion of peace". DOJ official William Killian said that federal civil rights laws can be violated by those who post "inflammatory documents aimed at Muslims" on social media. Only these Minions Most Mindless know what constitutes "inflammatory" in their (excuses for) minds.
So if I link to the article about the Muslim who murdered and beheaded two Coptic Christians in Jersey City, am I being "inflammatory"? How about if I link to this interview of an Egyptian Muslim cleric who gives pointers on how to properly beat one's wife? (By the way - where are all the feminists? Why, oh why, aren't they in an uproar over this?)
Well, speak I will. This is still the United States of America, where there is at least still some lip service paid to the Constitution - for now. Go to this Breitbart article about last week's Congressional hearing regarding the DOJ misadventures. Trent Franks is questioning Thomas Perez, Assistant Attorney General of the DOJ Civil Rights Division.
This "inflammatory" nonsense is simply a ploy to get good people to shut up about the obvious encroachment attempt by adherents to a violent ideology. By the way, if Islam is truly a "religion of peace", would someone please point me to the links where mainstream muslims denounce their misbehaving brethren for beating women, blowing up the Boston Marathon, 9/11, etc?

Video Of DC's Rally This Past Friday
Below is video from the Stand Up For Religious Freedom rally last Friday in DC, within view of the Capitol. All the speakers are to be thanked for their time, but Father Proporsky, the first speaker, fell into a bit of a booby trap at the 4:00 mark. He extolled a poster of Norman Rockwell's entitled "Freedom To Worship". It's true that in the 1940s there was no thought of relegating First Amendment religious rights to "worship" only, but there most certainly is an insidious effort along those lines now.
At around the 30:00 mark, listen very closely to the former POW. He makes the point that those who propose a "new world order" must crush religion, for such a government cannot brook a higher moral/social order than itself. I've never supported such a cockamaney notion and have long said that the United Nations should be abolished with all haste and without ceremony.
I also point out Trent Frank's comments at the 45:00 mark. He's quite correct in saying that if Obama wins in November, then all hell (I mean that literally) will break loose. That means we get behind the GOP nominee - now!
The clip will now follow this jump break.
