http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2012/09/just_how_much_is_16_trillion.html The U.S. debt clock ticked up over 16 trillion early this morning. Just 10 months ago, I wrote that the clock had struck fifteen trillion. To put that in perspective, The United States government took the first 200 years of its existence to reach one trillion in debt. It has now taken less than […]
Some Love Lost: Dems Drop ‘Special Relationship’ Language from 2012 Platform The pro-Israel news wires have been abuzz over the excision of core pro Israel language from the 2012 Democratic Party Platform.

Good for the Connecticut Jewish LedgerThe irony is that the leftist rabbis were the first to attack evangelicals for interfering in politics. These rabbis have joined the general liberation theology movement….which has little to do with theology and much to do with an anti-Western mind set that puts global warming, abortion and gay rights in the forefront, while putting spiritual matters on the back burner.

Last week, the White House released a list of rabbis who support Barrack Obama’s re-election. Many of the points we made in our December 2009 editorial apply. Here are three quotations we used in that article:

State law, contract rules and constitutional provisions should apply. The American system should be based upon law, not clerical dictate. Republican convention delegates voted last week […]
http://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/3328/us-israel-strategic-cooperation Mark 2012, however, as the year the Obama administration took its most overt steps yet to tell the Arab and Muslim World the the US was severable from Israel. How much of what the US and Israel developed over the years was shared with countries overtly hostile to Israel? “I don’t want to be […]
