For me it comes down to who do I trust will lead our country with Godly courage. That man is Rick Santorum. The COURAGE to do right. The COURAGE to trust the Lord. The COURAGE to call evil what it is. The COURAGE to recognize the spiritual battle and put on the full armor of God. Do you have the COURAGE to stand with Rick?

Father God, Lord of All Creation, Father of My Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I boldly approach your throne of grace right now and ask you to forgive me for looking to myself for answers instead of always looking to do and obey your will. Forgive us as a Nation for turning our back on you and I ask that you heal our land, Father God. Lord I pray a hedge of protection around Rick Santorum and ask that you lead and guide each and every step in this very important campaign for the Presidency of The United States of...

COLUMBUS, Ohio — White House candidate Rick Santorum on Saturday questioned President Barack Obama’s Christian values and attacked GOP rival Mitt Romney’s Olympics leadership as he courted tea party activists and evangelical voters in Ohio, “ground zero” in the 2012 nomination fight. Santorum, a former Pennsylvania senator known for his social conservative policies, said that Obama’s agenda is “not about you. It’s not about your quality of life. It’s not about your jobs. It’s about some phony ideal. Some phony theology. Not a theology based on the Bible. A different theology.” Obama campaign deputy press secretary Ben Labolt said Santorum’s...

Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum will speak on campus Monday night, Hillsdale College administrators and representatives from his campaign confirmed. Students have also invited Newt Gingrich, Ron Paul, and Mitt Romney to speak at what could be the college’s first presidential candidate symposium. At press time, their campaigns had not committed to the event. Santorum said he was looking forward to visiting Hillsdale to participate in the forum. “I am excited to share my vision for a brighter America, and the life experiences that have helped shape those positions,” Santorum said. The Hillsdale College Constitution Symposium, a coalition of students...

Herman Cain says he is headed to Israel for Glenn Beck’s Jerusalem rally in August. The Atlanta businessman and former pizza magnate announced his plans to attend the “Restoring Courage” rally on Beck’s Fox News show. “Speaking of courage, you’re going to be doing ‘Restoring Courage’ in Israel. I’m going to be there with you,” Cain said Wednesday. Beck, who appeared unaware of Cain’s plans to attend the event, shook the businessman’s hand, saying “Herman Cain, what a man.” The event is set to be a variation on Beck’s “Restoring Honor” rally last August. The admiration goes both ways: at...

Prayer Team for Rick Santorum take your post! Stand in the gap and put on your FULL ARMOR. The spiritual battle against Rick Santorum is about to get ugly......very ugly. Father God, in the name of your Son, Jesus Christ, I come before your throne of grace and seek your divine will and divine protection for Rick Santorum. Lord, I claim your promise that you will direct my path and make my path straight. Lead me and guide me as I desire to know and do your will.

Please post public prayer for Rick Santorum here. Friends, we are in a spiritual battle. Rick is not our God but I believe he will listen to Godly counsel. Father God surround Rick Santorum with Godly men who prayerfully seek your divine will. Lead him and guide his every step. May he be wise and humble, yet confident in doing what is right over what is popular. In the name of Jesus, my Rock, my Lord, my Deliverer.

If I am watching my House Proceedings correctly, I believe the CR (H.J 48) has passed the House. No one seriously thinks it will stall in the Senate. A lot of Republicans (44+) voted Nay. THAT IS A SIGNAL!!! NO MORE CR's!!!!

Protesters unhappy about proposed budget cuts march at the State Capitol building on Wednesday in Madison, Wisconsin. (CNN) -- This week's growing controversy about funding public education in Wisconsin is hardly an isolated incident, as 40 states are coping with budget shortfalls totaling $140 billion, which will threaten America's 14,000 school districts for the next five years, one analyst said Thursday. Concerns about funding kindergarten through 12th-grade systems were evident this week in Denver when big education's stakeholders -- the nation's two largest teachers unions, a superintendents group, a school boards group and federal education officials -- met to discuss...

Would you like your college education to be free? Sure, who wouldn't? Well, the people of Tunisia and Egypt are learning that whenever the government supplies something, it is never really "free." In Tunisia, "free" university education is guaranteed to anyone who passes the government's exams at the end of high school. Largely as a result of this, the number of Tunisians who graduated college more than tripled in the last ten years. This may sound like a good thing, but it has produced a glut of graduates. Fifty-Seven percent of young Tunisians entering the labor market are college educated....

What will happen Monday, history will record in less than 24 hours. The atmosphere is filled by suspense over the call for demonstration. Certainly the city is not calm. There were chants of "Allah-o akbar" across Tehran. People expect something to happen. Publicly, Mr. Karroubi and Mr. Mousavi have called for a demonstration in solidarity with the people of Egypt. Nobody thinks or believes this is about Egypt or will remain focused on Egypt. No wonder that their request has been rejected as illegal. Their advisers have announced that according to Article 27 of Iran's Constitution there is no need...

Representative Allen West (R-Florida) gave the closing speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) on February 12, 2011. Here’s what he had to say. He introduced an Army Sergeant, a veteran of Iraq, who trains those who guard the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. He talked about the difficult campaigns where Republicans won the House majority while having to contend with unreasonable accusations. He pointed out that he had been called “The Worst Person in the World” 5 or 6 times (presumably by Keith Olbermann), and then with a little smile he said “And he got fired for it!”...

Young Americans for Freedom (YAF) , a conservative libertarian group founded in 1960 at the estate of William F. Buckley, expelled Rep. Ron Paul, Texas Republican, from their advisory board on Saturday. The organization released the following statement on Saturday afternoon: The National Board of Young Americans for Freedom (YAF)—America's oldest conservative-libertarian activist group—has, per curium, voted to purge Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) from YAF’s National Advisory Board. YAF’s concern with Rep. Paul stems from his delusional and disturbing alliance with the fringe Anti-War movement. “It is a sad day in American history when a one-time conservative-libertarian stalwart has fallen...
