Report: Judge Says University Can Deny Course Credit to Christian Graduates Taught With Creationism Texts
Wednesday, August 13, 2008

Full Story Here

A federal judge has ruled the University of California can deny course credit to Christian high school graduates who have been taught with textbooks that reject evolution and declare the Bible infallible, the San Francisco Chronicle reported.

U.S. District Judge James Otero of Los Angeles ruled Friday that the school’s review committees did not discriminate against Christians because of religious viewpoints when it denied credit to those taught with certain religious textbooks, but instead made a legitimate claim that the texts failed to teach critical thinking and omitted important science and history topics.

Charles Robinson, the university’s vice president for legal affairs, told the Chronicle that the ruling “confirms that UC may apply the same admissions standards to all students and to all high schools without regard to their religious affiliations.”
________________________________________

So in other words the Judge affirmed that the college can pressure & blackmail students into accepting specific teachings as fact, by holding their college credits over their head like an Axe.

The assault on Christianity continues from yet another liberal college who has an ideological & political agenda. Keep sending your children to these schools if you want people, but just know that this is the kind of underlying hatred of Christianity & its teachings that you’re funding when you do.

One of the foremost experts on hurricane forecasting says he may soon lose funding due to his open skepticism about man-made global warming, according to a report in the Houston Chronicle.

Dr. William Gray, who once said that pro-global warming scientists are “brainwashing our children,” says that Colorado State University will no longer promote his yearly North Atlantic hurricane forecasts due to his views on “Global Warming.”

Gray sent a memo to the head of Colorado State’s Department of Atmospheric Sciences that reportedly read:”this is obviously a flimsy excuse and seems to me to be a cover for the Department’s capitulation to the desires of some (in their own interest) who want to reign in my global warming and global warming-hurricane criticisms,” the Houston Chronicle reports.

Interesting that the Science community is using the same exact techniques to harass Professor Gray, that Ben Stein describes in his movie “Expelled”. Expelled is a movie that reveals how the science community ostracizes any individual in academia who will not blindly go along with their big Darwinist, anti-intelligent design cult.

Now we are starting to see glaring examples of irrefutable scientific geniuses being treated the same way, by people with interests in big money grants to chase the latest scientific fads.

This was their excuse at a prestigious University? School officials denied that Gray’s stand on global warming was an issue, and said that they are cutting back on media support for his forecasts due to the strain it places on the school’s lone media staffer.

So you’re telling me that they can’t afford another media staffer to make sure the work of a world renowned climatologist gets published? Ya right… Come on people! Be real, Ok?

Keep in mind that all this Global Warming hysteria is a big part of the reason we are paying too much for gas! US citizens need to combat this on every front for the good of our economy.

Here’s the contact info for the Dean of the College of Engineering at CSU, Sandra Woods.

Office of the President of Colorado State University.

Please take the time to write the staff & especially the administrative staff of the University to tell them what your thoughts are on silencing the views of others in a free society. The atmospheric dept contacts can be found here.

Please be courteous in your correspondence. Who knows, maybe at some point these scientists will listen to reason, whereas “reason” is something they have a personal stake in preserving. Political ideologies change & fade like paint, but reasoning will always be there for us, if we listen for it.

Kudos to Larry King for breaking ranks with the rest of the liberal media, & asking Democratic Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi some tough questions on gas prices.

From her responses, including the current average price of gasoline, clearly she has a complete disconnect from the financial realities faced by those of us who do not have a personal government chauffeur. When responding to Larry King’s question on why the Democrats haven’t fulfilled their promise to “fix” gas prices, first she replies with the Democrat standard issue “It’s Bush’s fault” mantra, then she naively states that the current average price of gas is $2.56. King then corrects her saying “No, I think it’s $3.50 a gallon they’re saying now.” (Apparently King doesn’t buy his own gasoline either, or it’s inconsequential to him as well because of his high income; oo, like Nancy Pelosi he relies on others to tell him how much it is now.)

She goes on to reply “So it went down six cents.” Hmmm.. How did she get from $2.56, to Kings’ correcting her with his statement of $3.50 per gallon & then come out with “So it went down six cents….” ? Seems to me that the price went up from the figure she believed was right.. I mean as usual, she didn’t acknowledge the correction, so we have to go by her original quote. Because she (in her usual elitist & arrogant way) gave no explanation for being so far off, we can only assume that she really has no clue what’s going on.

It appears that the current leader of the United States Senate is both “mathematically challenged” (we’re talking about a Democrat here, so I have to be politically correct right?), & she has no clue what the American people are facing in the real world. You know, the world she DOESN’T live in?

All true.. Here it is in living color.. See for yourself:

“Mom, that deer is in the driveway again. She won’t budge, & just keeps staring at my headlights..”

Nancy Pelosi’s career as a leader in our country falls somewhere between tragic, & truly gut splitingly funny.

We knew to was coming, but I’m disappointed (so far) at the lack of counter opinions on many of the media/movie review sites.

I mean I know that this is due in part to the fact that most Conservatives have children to take care of, (because they didn’t abort them all) & because they have jobs they need to go to instead of having their hand out as a Liberal minion, or being one of those who spend their all time making sure the successful vote buying of the Democrats continues. I realize that these who collect welfare at the expense of those who are at work all day, do have more time to sit home & write more negative reviews on Ben Stein’s brilliant movie “Expelled”. However, we need to take time to defend truth, since these attackers are only interested in squashing it to protect their world views, their Government grants, & their welfare checks.

One thing that has been missed in the debate is this; How can you advocate liberal style “separation” of church & state, & then dutifully investigate intelligent design as a so called “scientist”?

The answer is, you can’t! Something has to give, or you don’t get any grant money. This is one of the reasons they hate the idea, & would rather stay in their little financial & ideological comfort zones!

The fact that these people don’t like the movie doesn’t bother me. What bothers me is the blatant lying they do while writing their reviews. Like one reviewer on Apple.com who said; “Darwin didn’t cause the Holocaust.” Nowhere in Stein’s movie does he say that Darwinism alone was sufficient to lead to the events. In fact, in the movie Stein himself says that though many of the principles of Darwin were believed by Hitler, he doesn’t think that was the only factor that led to the Holocaust. Other’s interviewed in the movie came to the same conclusion.

It is however undeniable that Darwin had elements of “Race purification” contained in his writings, & these principles were undeniably applied to humanity by evil men like Adolf Hitler, Saddam Hussein & others. He also exhibited signs of mental illness, had baldness, & was as genetically flawed as any of the people he suggested were genetically flawed, & therefore “disposable”.

What is amazing to me is how badly todays Scientists have turned on science itself, & traded in the principled questioning & searching for answers, for the protection of their own political, social or religious ideologies. For instance, like it or not, their atheism is a “faith” of sorts. It takes faith to believe anything that you weren’t around to see. Scientists & Darwinists can cry all they want but that’s a fact they can’t change no matter how hard they try.

Most notably in Steins movie, the flagship or Darwinism Richard Dawkins is cornered by logic itself, into admitting that Intelligent design is possible. On a comical note though, he feebly tries to save face for the movement by suggesting that a superior race of beings could have created the first cell & then disappeared. Yes, he actually suggested Aliens were possibly responsible, but yet he call those who believe in God delusional?

Huh? If they were superior to us or God, then where did they go? & where did they come from in the first place? What did they make the cell from?

Very disappointing showing by Mr. Dawkins to say the least. It was almost sad to watch him reduced to intellectual cannon fodder by Ben Stein.

In any case, you need to ignore the flood of leftist reviews that are trying to slander the movie, & silence it. (You know, those leftist champions of free speech & the media.)

Yes, they want to silence Ben Stein, & anyone who they don’t agree with. The movie stands on it’s own, & I’d encourage anyone to go see it & make up your own mind, instead of listening to fascist liberals who will go as far as to blatantly lie about it, to convince people not to go.

I do however also encourage you to look around the web & read their venomous reviews. Ask yourself why they are so angry? Why so viscous? What are they so afraid of? If the movie is so ridiculous & pointless as they claim, then why are they spending their time defending Darwin & attacking Ben Stein’s “Expelled” so veraciously?

It’s because they want to pontificate to you about what’s suitable for your viewing, & tell you what you should watch. Didn’t Hitler burn books? Create a state run media? Try to control the knowledge & communication?

Go see the movie while you live in a country where you can make up your own mind. Because if you don’t? There will come a day where the right you didn’t exercise, becomes a right you’ve lost.

~Dan Lee

Ben Stein’s new movie about the fascism in the science community, that bars free speech, & any questioning pf Darwinism, will be opening in theaters this Friday April 18, 2008.

Unfortunately Mr. Darwin will not be able to attend. He was apparently unable to figure out how to raise himself from the dead, unlike his arch nemesis, Jesus. (You may trace back the historical proof starting here, if you’re a true research scientist.)

This is a must see movie, & especially so for those closed minded atheists that are so fearfully attacking it. People always react violently to things they fear, or they run from it. It’s the fight or flight response. A panic attack of sorts you see.. Seasoned professional Therapists will tell you however, that you should face your fears to overcome them. So come on out all ye haters of creationism! Open your minds to the possibility that you really have been closed minded little trolls, who hide behind the faux premise that you are objective research scientists! Come see the movie! What can it hurt? After all, most of you feel that you know everything there is to know already right?

~Dan Lee

“The fact of evolution is the backbone of biology, and biology is thus in the peculiar position of being a science founded on an improved theory, is it then a science or faith?” ~ Charles Darwin

“Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.” ~ Albert Einstein

“The fanatical atheists are like slaves who are still feeling the weight of their chains which they have thrown off after hard struggle. “The fanatical atheists,” he wrote in a letter, “are like slaves who are still feeling the weight of their chains which they have thrown off after hard struggle. They are creatures who–in their grudge against traditional religion as the ‘opium of the masses’– cannot hear the music of the spheres.” That’s worthy of repeating: “They are creatures who–in their grudge against traditional religion as the ‘opium of the masses’– cannot hear the music of the spheres.” ~Albert Einstein

Well before I start, I want to say that I’m very sad for the families & victims of Seung-Hui Cho. It is one of those tragedies that none of us will ever forget.

However it’s also my responsibility to expose the truth wherever the gun hating leftist media in our country will not. The truth is, what ended up being a 1 against 32 slaughter, could have been much different if a few students & faculty were allowed to defend themselves against an attacker. Even a handful of trained & lethally armed security guards would have cut the carnage down significantly. Logic dictates that if a few responsible individuals trained to use a firearm were present, Cho would have been taken down, or at least chased off before he could kill more than perhaps 5 or 10 people. But all those things were against the “Campus Rules”. Rules that people like Seung-Hui Cho will never follow.

But on this day one year ago, Viginia Tech was a campus completely owned & operated for all practical purposes by Seung-Hui Cho. He was the rule of law. He was the purveyor of twisted justice in his own mind, & because he was the only one who had the firepower to enforce it, it went exactly how he planned it. He was judge, jury, & executioner.

Anti gun proponents like Thom Mannard, president of States United to Prevent Gun Violence, will tell us bold face lies by saying that; “What never really seems to occur is a real, thorough discussion on the fact that often the only common denominator in these tragedies is the use of guns. There is no other weapon that is legally available that can kill so many in such a short period of time. It’s amazing that more people don’t make that simple acknowledgment.”

What’s amazing to me Mr. Thom Mannard, is that you left out these other common demominators in these tragedies; The Immorality of the perpetrator(s), their Rage, their Malice, & often times their mental illness, substance abuse, & alcoholism.. Just a few little details you forgot to mention hmmm?

He also said this: “How many innocent victims must we lose on college campuses, in shopping malls, city halls and other public places before we say this is enough and start to discuss the role that guns are playing in all these tragedies,” Mannard continued. “We can no longer avoid the fact that guns are the common denominator in all these events, and that guns are the only type of weapon legally available in this country that can kill so many people in such a short period of time.

Oh really Thom Mannard? Here’s proof you are deadly wrong. A driver who wasn’t even trying to aim his car at anyone hit a crowd of people killing 8 of them instantly. Imagine if he was purposefully aiming it at a densely packed crowd of people?

New Hybrid vehicles have almost zero operational noise, making it a stealth weapon, even with the coming “noise makers” to protect blind pedestrains added to them. Those “safety features” will of course be easily defeated by crafty car owners & modders who are bitter over buying a car that could be quieter. One could drive a vehicle like that through or around barricades & take out 20- 30 parade goers or first night celebration attendees in a blink of an eye. That’s with out first loading the vehicle up with large metal gasoline containers wrapped with sheets of automatic nail gun nails, & igniting those when the perpetrator gets into the crowd. The car, the Gasoline, the nails, the automotive spark plug, & spark plug wire are all readily available to anyone who wants them. So only two conclusions remain, either Thom Mannard is a very naive soul, or he’s a liar with an anti-gun & second amendment agenda. Are we going to ban all Home improvement items too?

From the National the Centers for Disease Control:
In 2004, poisoning deaths exceeded those related to firearms by 2%; however, the difference increased to 7% in 2005, with 32,691 poisoning deaths compared with 30,694 firearm deaths. Motor vehicle traffic (MVT) deaths were the leading cause of injury death from 1999-2005, accounting for 43,667 deaths in 2005. From 2004 to 2005, MVT deaths increased 1%, firearm deaths, 4% and poisoning deaths, 8%. (1,2)

Much of the poisoning is related to drug abuse by the way.

Number of Death in Population by Motor Vehicles between 1999 & 2005: 268,732

So here’s my question to people like Thom Mannard. Since the U.S. constitution specifically guarantees our right to bear arms (most legal scholars believe the Supreme court will confirm & uphold that fact this summer), but the constitution does not specifically guarantee our right to own say a wagon or a horse, which is what they had back then when they wrote it, why then aren’t you trying to stop us from driving the automobile which is statistically proven to be more deadly than the gun?

A Podium Vs. a Gun

Erin Sheehan was a freshman last year when the shooting happened. She was overlooked by the gunman during the shooting because she “played dead”. After that, she had the unfortunate task of trying to keep him out, armed with only a piece of wooden furniture. She’s been quoted as saying the following:

“I tried to use a podium at the front of the classroom to block the door, because the gunman was shoving at the door and started firing through the door. We didn’t think we were going to be able to hold it.”

I strongly commend Erin for her bravery in trying to do at least “something” in the face of danger, but I think it’s safe to say that she was one of many fish being shot at in a barrel, & she was trying to protect herself by pulling only a wooden lid over it, instead of doing what we regularly have our police & military do when enemies attack, SHOOT BACK! This is because of the irresponsible & just plain neurotic demands by the liberal college administrations around the country, that students & faculty walk around in a fantasy world where gun bans will keep criminals from getting or using weapons. The truth is, he could have walked into that same classroom with a well constructed pipe bomb full of nuts bolts ect, & killed as many people. He could even have thrown one through the window, & then moved to another area to do the same. It’s not the guns that are the problem, it’s the break down of morality in a society that has submitted to liberal democratic rule, & principles, instead of the principles of the Republic it once was.

I’ve had guns at my disposal for a greater part of my life, but yet I’ve never come close to shooting anyone. However, you can bet that if I were near the college the day that Seung-Hui Cho was there & heard shooting & screaming, I would have hunted him down & shot him to stop him from hurting anymore people. Gun ban or not, my Pistol would have gone with me, & common sense & the spirit of the law would have at the moment overruled the “form” of the law.

This is not rocket science people. It’s common sense, & it’s not that hard to understand if you take the time to read through the facts that could save your life.

While wussey little college administrators are pontificating to the rest of us about what we can & can’t do to protect ourselves, they are putting peoples lives at risk to build a political reality for themselves. That would be a fascist state of rule where they can control the masses, & dangle your safety in front of you like a carrot in front of a cold hungry & scared little bunny who needs their protection to survive. Remember, when the nearest cop is 15 minutes away, most colleges will have you out in the open halls of a classroom, while the administrators are safely locked behind pass code/card swiped doors. How many college administrators, board members ect. were killed during the rampages at VT & NIU? None? e-mail me if I’m wrong & I’ll make the correction, but suffice to say it was significantly lower than the students they disarmed & marched out onto the front lines of the real world.

Well last year, they didn’t protect you, now did they? Yeah sure, leave it up to the Dean who always has the option of locking the thick hardwood oak door to his/her office, & hiding under their desk until police arrive with GUNS to save them. It makes me sick.. Weapons will never go away, nor will evil on earth. When will these people stop living a fantasy, & allow people to protect themselves from harm? The government, bureaucracies, & certainly your college administrators can’t protect you. I don’t think anyone can seriously argue that this has been conclusively proven over the last few years, at colleges & even high schools across America. ~Dan Lee

When I was a kid, (Not really all that long ago), it was not unusual for us to get a little bored in class, & then draw a picture of a little stick figure holding a gun, & shooting the proverbial “bad guy”. Our teachers then, whether they agreed or not, respected our first amendment right to express ourselves in any way we wanted to, as long as it wasn’t physically violent or disruptive. Now, if a child draws a picture of even just a gun, or even a squirt gun, you have fascist liberal teachers dragging children down to the principles office to suspend them.
That is nothing short of indoctrination into someone else’s political & social views, & these days if YOUR child doesn’t comply, they face punishments & sanctions.

Of course sane people know that a drawing of a gun, or a depiction of a violent act is not necessarily a bad thing, but rather for some kids a way to express & process what goes on in the world around them. I was one of those creative kids. As I was growing up, I was eventually in possession of real guns, & still do have real guns & ammunition, yet I’ve never even come close to shooting anyone.. Guns are no different than cars. If you point them at a person, & either pull the trigger or run them over, they may die. It’s that simple. Yet liberals try to demonize the possession of guns as they drive around in their deadly little silver boxes. Well like for instance Al Gore’s son, who was arrested in his Toyota Prius doing 100 mph, with pot smoke billowing out the windows. Clue: Pot smoke is bad for the environment, & even a Prius will cause pollution at 100 mph, but I digress..

The point is, children are being taught in public schools that guns are bad. Yet liberals leave cars alone, (even though they are one of the true leading killers of people in America & beyond) because they drive those themselves & at least at this stage, know better than to go there with the public. They are selectively wussifying our children, in order to indoctrinate them into their way of twisted thinking. Many schools are dropping playground activities like tag, dodge ball, ect.. because well.. “children could be hurt”, & even getting rid of grades claiming that the grading system only serves to damage their self confidence.

Meanwhile these are the same liberals who pump Yo MTV at little girls all day, & poison them into thinking that their looks & how much thong they can show above their low rider jeans determines their value. It’s no wonder that they send nude pictures to prospective boyfriends these days. Notice that in this story about nude picture sharing, it wasn’t school officials that discovered it, but rather a responsible parent. Only then did the school get involved in this case I’ve linked. That’s because school officials are too busy pontificating over kids who draw pictures of guns, or chase each other in the schoolyard playing tag. Besides, since we know that most teachers these days are either liberal, or imprisoned by the education policies OF liberals, how can such a vile group question the morality of students? No, they’d rather chastise them for the issues that mean the most to the liberal teachers unions. Things like Gay rights, Gun Control, & keeping those gang banging religious freaks &/or any of their doctrine completely out of the school. Oh, & you for sure better not take a call from your father serving in Iraq, because a liberal school teacher won’t have any of that either, since they don’t feel that he should be there in the first place..

There’s a war INSIDE our country people, & it’s only going to get worse if we keep electing Democrats into office. That’s the bottom line. Democrat politics are flawed by always going with the flow of even the angriest & senseless whims of any mob of activists that happen to fall together.

That is why our forefathers gave us a Republican governmental system, & not a Democratic one, because they new what turmoil that would lead to.

“Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch.”
“An empire is a despotism,” wrote Adams, “and an emperor is a despot, bound by no law or limitation but his own will.”

-John Adams

As you can see from things like Teachers Unions (for instance) Adams was right. They have no problem with imposing their own will on our children, & thus trying to cement their twisted form of government for our future into the minds of children. That’s why teacher’s unions hate homeschooling. They can’t get their grubby little ideologies into your kids heads if they can’t get to them. A Great Example Here. They do this by ensuring a liberal voting base through this devious form of systematic brainwashing. It’s vitally important for our survival as a nation, that you don’t let these people raise & wussify your children. After all, at some point these teachers actually have more time with them than YOU DO.

THAT fact, is some serious food for thought! ~Dan Lee

Lies from the Land of the Left

By Mrs. Deadken

As some of you know, I love discussing and reading books on science, religion and politics. I would like to share some of the more disturbing myths I have come across.

Lefty Myth #1: Hitler belongs on the far right of the political spectrum.

Hitler was a member and leader of the National Socialist German party. He believed in few personal rights, totalitarian government, was anti-gun, etc. which are opposite the right wing view of individual freedoms, small government, pro gun, etc. The further to the right you get on the political spectrum, the smaller the government. Therefore, anarchists would correctly be classified as right wing extremists - but not fascists. The real political spectrum:

Fascists-Communists-Socialists-Liberals-Democrats-Moderates-Republicans-
Conservatives-Libertarians-Anarchists
<---more government--------------less government--->

On a side note, and leading into my next category, although Hitler was baptized into the Catholic church as an infant, he was a self proclaimed atheist and evolutionist. Hitler often quoted Darwin and relied heavily on his evolutionary concepts to justify his war. The historian R. Hickman, in his book Biocreation, said: “Hitler was a firm believer and preacher of Evolution. In his book, Mein Kampf, Hitler clearly sets forth a number of evolutionary ideas, particularly those emphasizing struggle, survival of the fittest and the extermination of the weak to produce a better society.”

Lefty Myth#2: Evolution is based on scientific facts.

I will start by clarifying that microevolution (evolution within a species: dogs may range from Chihuahua to Great Dane, they can mate and produce viable offspring, but dogs always remain dogs) is an observable, empirical fact. However, macroevolution (evolution between species: a monkey evolving into a human) has NEVER been observed. Spontaneous generation of life, which is required to get the theory of evolution started, has NEVER been observed. Natural selection creating new types of organisms has NEVER been observed. The theory of evolution was NEVER proven by the scientific method and it is a FACT that it contradicts with laws of science (the Law of Biogenesis, the Law of Conservation of Matter, the 1st and 2nd Law of Thermodynamics, the Law of Entropy, etc.). The theory of evolution is believed by FAITH, thus making it nothing more than a pseudo religion masquerading as science. I would argue that many hold faith in evolution because it makes them feel morally comfortable. If we arrived from primordial goo, and God does not exist, we can all live by our own feel-good-agenda. By ruling out God, evolutionists can avoid His rules. I think the motivation behind many evolutionists is their personal moral preferences - because it’s definitely not the scientific evidence. As Molecular Biologist Michael Denton put it:”Evolutionary theory is still, as it was in Darwin’s time, a highly speculative hypothesis entirely without direct factual support, contradicts scientific laws, and very far from that self-evident axiom some of its more aggressive advocates would have us believe.”

Lefty Myth #3: Islam is a religion of peace.

I was tired of being told how peaceful Muslims are, yet hearing about them killing hundreds of thousands in Darfur, a million people in Rwanda, thousands in the World Trade Center, etc. Since the Liberal agenda was contradicting known facts, I once again decided to do my own research. I have been simultaneously reading The Koran, Understanding the Koran, and Facts on Islam. Here are some of my findings: The Koran contradicts history, science, the Bible and itself (I have exact verses, if interested). According to the Islamic scholars, Islam encourages lying and deception, known as “taqiyya” or “kithman”. There are four pillars, or stages, to Jihad, ultimately leading up to “Jihad of the Sword”. Meaning: Muslims are commanded by Muhammad to either convert or kill non-Muslims:”Kill those who join other gods wherever ye shall find them; and seize them, besiege them, and lay wait for them with every kind of ambush; but if they convert, and observe prayer, and pay the obligatory alms, then let them go their way, for Allah is Gracious, Merciful.” [9:5] This final stage (qital) seems contrary to Muhammads earlier, more peaceful teachings. However, the Koran makes it clear that wherever there is conflict, later revelations always trump earlier texts (see Sura 2:106; 13:39; 16:103). Therefore, according to Islamic jurisprudence, the fourth stage (convert or kill) is meant to be normative. Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world with almost 1.3 billion followers. In the U.S. alone Muslim numbers are growing by approx. 109% yearly (compared to Christian growth at approx. 5% and Judaism down -10% yearly) http://www.adherents.com/rel_USA.html.

Lefty Myth #4: Bush lied.

~The bi-partisan Senate Select Committee found Bush innocent of “lies”.
~Robb-Silvermann independent investigation found Bush innocent of “lies”.
Intelligence from CIA, M15 and several international intelligence agencies (ie: Russia) found that Saddam Hussein used and was actively pursuing WMD’s. Saddam repeatedly broke UN sanctions and denied UN weapon inspectors permission into Iraq. Saddam used WMD’s on the Kurds and Shiites, killing approximately 300,000. American and Israeli intelligence also know that Saddam continued to make and receive chemical/biological weapons as well as relocate them to Syria prior to the US invasion. Unfortunately, our biased media does not share this information with the American public. Check out these great links for more info on the WMD’s our media “forgot” to share with us:

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?

Lefty Myth #5: the media is not biased.

A couple of months ago, I finished reading the book Bias by Bernard Goldberg. He gives fact after fact, account after account, and lists amazing statistics on just how unabashedly Liberal-biased our media really is. There is so much info on the bias, I don’t even know where to start (please read Bernard’s book). I will quickly discuss two current myths in the media: the economy and the war in Iraq.
According to our mainstream news sources, every time our economy is great, we can thank a Democrat. Every time our economy is tanking, we can blame a Republican. Never mind the facts that point to the exact opposite (those silly facts). Here’s a great article on the subject:

http://www.investors.com/editorial/editorialcontent.asp
But the story that really drove home the bias was reading about the recent trip to America by prime minister of Iraqi Kurdistan, Nerchivan Barzani. After watching how “bad” the war was going on CNN, he panicked wondering what had happened in the days since he had left his country and stated “I even wondered if things had gotten so bad that I shouldn’t return”. Barzani eventually realized what was going on and has since warned “the news media’s coverage of the situation in Iraq is terribly biased. The news in the Washington Post, New York Times, in the network TV broadcasts, CNN International and Al Jazeera are equally bad in their coverage of the situation in Iraq”.

Which made me think about this quote:

“As of this writing 2,802 young Americans have been killed during three and a half years of war in Iraq. That’s roughly the same number killed at Iwo Jima during the first three and a half days of fighting against the Japanese. Every life lost was precious and every loss grievous to those who loved them. Unfortunately, our media intends to use every one of those killed to make their point. It’s a lesson they learned in Vietnam. On Feb. 27,1968 after a month of brutal fighting and daily images of U.S. casualties on American television, Walter Cronkite, then the host of the CBS Evening News, proclaimed that the Tet Offensive had proven to him that the Vietnam War was no longer winnable… It didn’t matter that Tet had been a decisive victory for the United States and South Vietnam. Today’s potentates of the press are trying to deliver the same message: that Iraq, like Vietnam, is un-winnable. One television network has gone so far as to broadcast images of U.S. troops being killed by terrorists - making Iraq the first war where Americans get their news from the enemy. The war in Vietnam wasn’t lost during ‘Tet 68′ no matter what Cronkite said. Rather, it was lost in the pages of America’s newspapers, on our televisions, our college campuses - and eventually in the corridors of power in Washington. We need to pray that this war isn’t lost the same way.” ~Lt. Col. Oliver North, US Marine Corps (retired)

In conclusion: question everything, be skeptical, get all sides of an argument before forming your own opinions. As the Bible states in 1 Thessalonian 5:21 “Test everything. Hold on to the good.” The truth is out there!

Bias: A CBS Insider Exposes How the Media Distort the News

How I entered college an Agnostic Liberal and left a Conservative Christian

By Mrs. Deadken

The following is an account of my SoCal college experiences…

During my first semester, I took a Political Science class and scored “flaming Liberal” on the entrance exam (I scored further left than anyone in the entire class). I also took a bunch of Sociology, Psychology, Science and Multi-cultural classes. In these subjects I was routinely told about the evils of America, Republicans and Christians. I was enlightened in my science classes about how God does not exist. I was informed that men are pigs (except possibly the progressive, sensitive, compliant ones that were bi-products of the feminist movement). I remember giggling in agreement when my professors talked about how archaic and ignorant Christians were and nodding in unison when they described how greedy and arrogant Republicans were. I would then bring this “superior intellectual knowledge” home to my high-school-sweetheart-turned-hubby Charlie, in hopes that I could sway him from his Conservative Christian views (oh yeah, our household was a barrel of monkeys during this time period). Charlie would ask me questions like, “Don’t you wonder why they aren’t offering counter points? What are they afraid of? What are they hiding?” I remember him so logically and lovingly providing the balance that my professors deprived me of. However, like so many naïve young college kids, I thought “how could my instructors, with all of their education and degrees, be wrong?” Class after class, semester after semester, I heard the same old stuff. But little by little, it didn’t feel so great to bob my head in unison. In fact, I secretly became ashamed. Even though I was a goody-two-shoes obsessed with my 4.0, I had always been somewhat of a rebel at heart. In jr. high and high school I was drawn to the “different” kids (for me it was the brainiac/skater/sci-fi/punk crowd). I really admired those that did not blindly follow the crowd, were willing to take a stand, stick-up for the underdog, etc. Suddenly, here I was in college, and somehow I had become part of the mass mob majority. I grew more and more skeptical, I began to see the importance of Charlie’s questions, and I wanted answers.

Really long story short… you can only be spoon fed a one-sided story for so long before (hopefully) you begin to question its validity. Out of my respect and admiration for my hubby, my need for balance, my love for the underdogs, etc. I started to do my own research. It is interesting, amazing, and life-altering the information that can be found outside of college. You might be familiar with some of my findings like: I learned that scientific theories (the ones trying to remove God) actually contradict with scientific laws – weird that my Science teachers never disclosed that FACT (for more lefty myths, see my blog: Lies from the Land of the Left). Anyway, some of you know my story from there… I am now a Conservative Christian living in SoCal – a REBEL once again! Woohoo! And… (just in case you didn’t know)… Ann Coulter and Jesus rock!!!

I realize that this was my personal experience. And, to be fair, the types of classes I took might partly explain why my professors were so biased: my BA major was in Liberal Arts (fyi: liberal meaning “the seven branches of medieval education”, not “Michael Moore”) with a minor in Sociology and my MA was in Education and Multicultural studies. As a side note, I do want to give a shout-out to my Calculus teacher and most of my grad school professors at Chapman University (private school, hellooo) for remaining fairly balanced – I now realize how truly courageous they were. I am now a public school teacher myself and I understand the enormous responsibility that comes with my profession. I know how students can blindly believe what they are told, so I must be as fair and balanced as possible. In my opinion, a lot of our kids are having a Liberal agenda shoved down their throats, and they are buying it hook, line and sinker. Unfortunately, I do not think my story is unique.

A California State appellate court says those who teach children in private must have a “credential”.

Parents who lack teaching credentials cannot educate their children at home, according to a state appellate court ruling that is sending shock waves of anger through California’s home schooling families.

We all know what’s behind the ruling. If the liberals in California can’t get at Conservative Christian children, how an they possibly brainwash them into accepting the gay lifestyle, teach them that their own country is evil & responsible for every problem the world faces, & teach them that the bible is a fairy tale, & evolution is fact? They can’t! & they are fuming over it.

So now they want to violate people’s constitutional rights by telling them they can’t teach their own children.

How then will they enforce this? Are they going to come into people’s homes & take the children away?

If this ruling in California stands, I for one think the gun industry will benefit greatly. The sale of assault rifles & other weapons needed to protect people from a rogue Government will have a tremendous spike once people feel the threat of government trying to take their children away, or forcing them into substandard public schools to have their minds sodomized, while violating their constitutional & more importantly God given right to freedom.

If any of you fools who think you have a right to tell other people what to teach their children are reading this, I implore you to think through this carefully. Because if you thought the wild west was bad, just start trying to take people’s children out of their homes to suit your political & social ideological agendas.

The results will be VERY, VERY deadly bad..

The second amendment gives us the right to bear arms. It also gives us the right to assemble militias to protect ourselves against evil people, & rogue governments.

Nowhere in the Constitution is it stated that the Government has the right to teach our children, or mandate the direction of their teaching, in any way.

It’s a very bad idea to start a civil war in our country, because there are people that will certainly fight it. Time for the rabbid leftists to back off, for the good of the nation as a whole. This threat against the very foundations of our freedom is something people are, & have been willing to fight for to the death if necessary. I don’t think there’s any need for us to go backwards & settle old arguments, but If you try to take children out of homes, or disrupt the lives of good people to force indoctrinate their children, it’s just going to get very, very ugly in this country. Remember I said it, & it was forewarned.. I hope they heed it, instead of pushing good people’s backs against the wall, & causing them to react to defend themselves. ~Dan Lee

Words don”t suffice, I mean words don’t even come close. You just have to watch this narrated McCain interview with Michael Reagan, which was the beginning of the end for McCain last time he wanted to play President of the United States. I had honestly forgotten how loony & frighteningly temperamental he can be, Until this:
