In the wake of a tabloid report alleging that he molested several underage girls while he was a teenager, reality-television star Josh Duggar said Thursday that he “acted inexcusably” and was “deeply sorry” for what he called “my wrongdoing.” The 27-year-old Duggar, a high-profile member of the evangelical Christian family that stars on TLC’s “19 Kids and Counting,” also resigned his post with the Family Research Council, a conservative lobbying organization. “Twelve years ago, as a young teenager, I acted inexcusably for which I am extremely sorry and deeply regret,” Duggar said in a statement posted on Facebook on Thursday....

High Crimes and Misdemeanors The U.S. Constitution provides impeachment as the method for removing the president, vice president, federal judges, and other federal officials from office.

Looks like it's legitimate, but I never saw this one before .... anyone ?

For the last 5500+ years, wedding ceremonies have been sacred—set apart as holy, and reserved only for those who qualify…one man and one woman. Since the beginning of time, it has been the absolute standard as a foundation of families, of our society, and of civilization as we know it. All civilizations that have violated that standard have eventually fallen, often with nothing left to show for their existence but rubble. As the rest of the world looked on in horror, all they had left were the hard lessons to be learned for their neighbor’s devastating mistakes. There is absolute...

St. Joan of Arc & the Truth about Snipers & Why Tyrants like Hitler Always Hate Them In recent days I have been amazed and sickened by some of the vicious comments I have heard directed at Chris Kyle, the soldier portrayed in the new movie American Sniper, and I felt I could help people better understand the truth about snipers and why they are so feared and hated by the kind of people making the negative comments.  In St. Joan of Arc’s army soldiers that functioned as snipers were as important to her military success as they are...

The gift of knowledge, given freely to each other BY each other, because you had the idea that this communication should be free, has made it possible for thousands of people to acquire the understanding and develop the determination to actually take part in being an American, and THAT became the thread to the fabric we've woven and present you with this scarf (which you'll never wear, because you live in Califotnia ... so we won't knit and send it)

The KinderGarden of Eden: How The Modern Liberal Thinks is my bestselling book considered definitive by many. It offers my "Unified Field Theory of Liberalism" which Bill Whittle declared has "forever changed and clarified" the way he views the world.

We have a president, not a king. Yet President Obama has decided to act like a king, using imperial powers to change the status of millions of illegal immigrants. This is bad policy, and it is bad law. Millions more illegal immigrants will flood across our unprotected borders, demanding the same status. That’s the bad policy. And the President enacted the bad policy by violating the Constitution’s separation of powers. That’s the bad law. At the ACLJ, we’re fighting in Congress—for secure borders, for the Constitution, and against President Obama’s imperial presidency. Join us: Sign the Petition: Stop President Obama’s...

The top congressional leaders from both parties gathered at the White House for a working discussion over the shape and size of President Barack Obama’s economic stimulus plan. The meeting was designed to promote bipartisanship. But Obama showed that in an ideological debate, he’s not averse to using a jab. Challenged by one Republican senator over the contents of the package, the new president, according to participants, replied: “I won.” The statement was prompted by Senate Minority Whip Jon Kyl of...

The Oak Ridge Boys sing a song called G.I. Joe & Lillie which is a tribute to Veterans with a very personal touch by singer Joseph S. Bonsall. The Oak Ridge Boys first sang the song while performing at the American Music Theater in Lancaster, PA, and the audience included his parents as well as forty other veterans from the Southeastern Pennsylvania Veterans Home. Joseph wrote the song to honor them and after they performed it that night there was not a dry eye in the place. If you’d like to read the book G.I. Joe & Lillie it is...

I stopped by the Chevrolet Dealership yesterday for a look at the new Silverado 1500 pickup. Just for fun, I took it out for a test drive. I wanted to sense that new "feel" before they become extinct. The salesman (a black man wearing an Obama "change" lapel pin) sat in the passenger seat describing the truck and all its "wonderful" options. The seats were of particular interest. He explained that the seats directed warm air to your bottom in the winter and directed cool air to your bottom in the summer heat. Feeling like messing with him, I mentioned...

YES on 1, TN is #3 in out of state abortions. Why Yes on 1 Who We Are YES on 1 is a community-based outreach to raise awareness of the proposed pro-life constitutional amendment slated for public vote in 2014.

Background Basic commonsense protections passed by the Tennessee...

Rick Perry’s potential 2016 GOP rivals on Saturday rushed to the Texas governor’s defense in the wake of his indictment on allegations of abusing his office. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), Gov. Bobby Jindal (R-La.) and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush all came out in strong defense of Perry, who on Saturday said he would fight the “farce” indictment. Cruz, who previously served as a top lawyer for the Lone Star state, blasted the prosecution as “politically motivated” and lit into what he deemed as the “sad history” of the prosecutors, a reference to previous legal efforts aimed at Texas Republicans.
