Get out of the Bunker, Conservatives! 8 Ways to Go on Offense Post-Orlando

/0 Comments/in , /by

How is it that Democrats have succeeded, following a series of terror attacks here and in Europe, in focusing the discussion on the inanimate objects used by the Islamic terrorists instead of the Islamic terrorists themselves? How could they get away with such absurdity, especially given the fact that Europe has an even worse terrorist problem, despite having even stricter gun laws than what Democrats are promoting?

The answer, of course, is the same as with every policy and media narrative: Republicans not only let them get away with it, they help validate, legitimize, and consummate their narratives and premises. This week Republicans in the Senate plan to focus solely on gun policy, thereby solidifying the veracity of the Democratic narrative that the problem and solution of terrorism revolves around gun policy. Meanwhile, Republicans are squandering the opportunity to go on offense and cut to the source of our security problems. They have agreed to conduct votes today on two Democratic gun control measures and will respond with two gun amendments of their own. With the federal government preventing law enforcement from identifying Islamic terrorists in our communities, are Republicans not capable of ensuring that the legislative agenda reflects a truthful narrative?

Here are the top eight initiatives Republicans can push that either speak directly to the specific terror attacks that have occurred in recent years or address the long-term systemic security concerns:

1. Defund CVE: The responsibility for not catching the Orlando terrorist, as well as several of the most recent high profile Islamic terrorists, is rooted in the Department of Homeland Security’s Countering Violent Extremism (CVE) Agenda. Just before the terror attack, the Homeland Security Advisory Council (HSAC), which is run by Muslim Brotherhood officials, posted a CVE memo directing agents to overlook any terrorist ties to Islam. It went so far as to direct law enforcement to “reject religiously-charged terminology and problematic positioning by using plain meaning American English.” Preventing Islamic terror attacks begins with identifying the enemy. That cannot be done as long as there is a fifth column within our own government committed to erasing all connections to the trail of terror. It is this agenda that is ensuring that local law enforcement is not only kept in the dark concerning homegrown Islamic terror threats, they are strong-armed into ignoring those threats with their own resources.

2. Ban the Muslim Brotherhood: Following up on number one, banning the Muslim Brotherhood would change the entire discussion and redirect the national focus from the weapons to the actual terrorists. By designating the Muslim Brotherhood as a terror group, Congress would be able to audit every member of these counterterrorism councils at DHS, DOJ, and State and root out anyone with ties to their umbrella organizations. In addition to parsing out the firefighters from the arsonists within our government, banishing the Muslim Brotherhood would help stem the tide of Islamic violent extremism in our communities. ISIS has only been around for three years, yet thousands of Muslims have been radicalized in our communities for several decades. The Muslim Brotherhood is the source for much of that radicalization. They control the mosques, write the textbooks for Muslim schools, and serve as chaplains in the prisons. A complete ban of this group would go a long way towards empowering those Muslims who want to assimilate without fear of intimidation.

3. Pause Refugee Resettlement: With Obama stepping on the gas pedal of refugee resettlement, Republicans could easily change the narrative from gun control to protecting our sovereignty and security. Americans do not want more Islamic refugees from the most volatile parts of the world when there is no way to engage in short-term or long-term vetting of these families. In addition, with record numbers of migrants from the Middle East, the only way to properly assimilate those already here into patriotic assimilation is to pause, or at least reduce, immigration from those countries for at least several years.

4. Allow States to Block Refugees: As we’ve noted, Obama has not followed the legal requirement to consult with states before resettling refugees within their respective jurisdictions. Nonetheless, the broken court system has allowed Obama to get away with this violation of federal law. Imagine if Republicans would submit an amendment empowering states to veto refugee resettlement within their borders? A number of Democrats would be placed on defense, as the people always like to decide questions that pertain to the character of their localities on a local level.

5. Strip ISIS Fighters of Citizenship: Isn’t it amazing how Democrats, such as Sen. Joe Manchin (WV), decry due process for Americans when it comes to gun rights, yet every one of them have opposed Ted Cruz’s effort to strip citizenship from ISIS fighters AFTER being convicted through full due process? There are roughly 250 known Americans who have attempted to join up with foreign terror groups. The fact that they have not been tried for treason is unconscionable. Why Mitch McConnell won’t bring Cruz’s bill (S. 247) to the floor is beyond comprehension.

6. Build the Border Fence: The southern border is not only open to Central Americans seeking jobs and welfare, it is potentially open to those fleeing the Middle East and obtaining asylum. As I’ve noted before, the asylum loophole is perhaps a bigger problem than our refugee policy. There are signs of Middle Easterners making the trip to South America for the purpose of declaring asylum at our southern border. Just last week, Judicial Watch reported that one such asylum-seeker was caught at the border carrying documents detailing the region’s gas pipelines. Isn’t it time we finally complete the 800-mile double-layered fence? Democrats would be hard pressed to oppose such an amendment at a time like this.

7. Enact Visa-Tracking: Even Democrats say they support the implementation of an Exit-Entry visa tracking system at our ports, yet they have dragged their feet on implementation since 1996. In 2015 alone, 527,000 foreign nationals overstayed their visas. A number of them are from Middle Eastern countries. We know this because in 2014, ABC News reported that DHS lost track of 58,000 foreign students (just one of the many visa categories) who have overstayed their visas, of which 6,000 presented a “heightened concern.” America admits a tremendous amount of foreign students from the Middle East. This has remained one of the most glaring holes in our security apparatus. Why won’t Republicans make Democrats go back on their word and oppose a consensus amendment to implement the first half of a visa tracking system by October?

8. Concealed Carry: Finally, if Republicans are committed to playing follow-the-leader with Democrats and focusing on guns, why not go on offense and propose concealed carry reciprocity? As witnessed by surging gun sales, Americans are embracing guns now more than ever. We need to show the American people that we are not going to disarm them in the face of global jihad. We are going to protect and promote their right to defend themselves by passing legislation that will allow them to carry their legally-owned firearms not just in their states of residence, but in whatever state or territory they may travel to. And while they are debating gun policy, what better way to embarrass Democrats than by blocking Obama’s continuous release of gun felons from prison?

It is unfathomable for Republicans to allow Democrats to bring in record numbers of dangerous terrorists, ignore their activity domestically, allow their leaders to craft our counter-terrorism policies… and then focus on the weapons used by those individuals? They should be conducting vote after vote on this week’s spending bill highlighting the pro-terrorist agenda of this administration.

For goodness sakes, this is the Justice Department spending bill we are dealing with this week. Republicans should have one hundred amendments prepared dealing with the malfeasances of Obama’s [In]Justice Department, over and beyond terrorism related amendments. They should be shutting down Obama’s war on cops, his assault on North Carolina, the rationally motivated law suits, and much more. But all they want to focus on is playing defense on gun control?

Republicans will also have an epic opportunity to provide Americans with a bold contrast during this week’s House markup of the annual funding bill for Homeland Security. Republicans can shut down Obama’s amnesty agenda, implement requisite security reforms, and ban CVE and the Muslim Brotherhood from the department. But will they?

Bunkers are the final redoubt of the defeated. They stink like fear, death, and cowardice. Real men leave the relative security of fortified walls, march through the gates and engage the enemy on the plains in decisive battle. Unfortunately, the Senate GOP is led by cowards.

Obama’s Support of Radical Islam and the Rise of ISIS

/0 Comments/in , /by

The foreign policy for dealing with radical Islam pursued by Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton can best be described as the intersection of ideology and incompetence.

Obama’s “amore” for radical Islam began in 2009, soon after his inauguration, when he ordered his administration not to support the Iranian Green Revolution after thousands of brave Iranian democracy protesters rose up against the brutal Khamenei regime.

According to the Wall Street Journal: “Obama administration officials at the time were working behind the scenes with the Sultan of Oman to open a channel to Tehran. The potential for talks with Iran-and with Mr. Khamenei as the ultimate arbiter of any nuclear agreement,” one that would prove to be a national security disaster for the US. As it turned out, Obama’s Iran nuclear agreement only strengthen the hard-liners; since completion of the agreement, Tehran has stepped up arrests of political opponents.

In 2010, Obama ordered his advisors to produce a secret report, later known as Presidential Study Directive-11 (PSD-11), which concluded that the United States should shift from its longstanding policy of supporting stable but authoritarian regimes in the Middle East and North Africa to one backing, what Obama Administration officials considered groups such as the Muslim Brotherhood and the Turkish AK Party, now led by President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, as a so-called “moderate” alternative to more violent Islamist groups like al Qaeda and the Islamic State.

The Muslim Brotherhood was founded in Egypt in 1928 as a Sunni Islamist religious, political and social movement, whose fundamental goal remains Islam’s global domination and the implementation of Sharia. Although the Muslim Brotherhood uses political instruments more than violence, its radical goals are no different from al-Qaeda and ISIS.

It has long been suspected that Obama, not only supports the Muslim Brotherhood, but that his administration is infiltrated by the Brotherhood, including Hillary Clinton’s long-serving assistant, Huma Abedin, who has enjoyed an intensely close relationship with the Islamist organization for decades.

Therein rests the motivation for the policies formulated and actions taken by Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton in Egypt, Libya and Syria, all of which led to the growth of radical Islam in North Africa and the Middle East.

The Tunisian revolution in December 2010 and the rise of the Islamist Ennahda Movement in that country was quickly followed by the Cairo protests that began on January 25, 2011 under the direction of Egypt’s largest opposition group, the Muslim Brotherhood. The protests and associated violence led to the resignation on February 11, 2011 of long-time US ally, Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak. There are now a number of reports indicating the US cooperated with and attempted to sustain the influence of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, including an alleged Brotherhood agent inside the US Embassy in Cairo.

Violent regime change in support of radical Islam began in earnest on February 15, 2011, when a rebellion broke out in Benghazi, Libya against the authoritarian regime of Muammar Qaddafi. Toppling Qaddafi had long been a goal of Islamic militant groups, including al-Qaeda and the local Libyan al-Qaeda affiliate, the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group (LIFG), a key player in the anti-Qaddafi rebellion.

Within a few weeks of the outbreak of fighting in eastern Libya, Obama has signed a secret order authorizing a covert CIA operation to support Islamist rebel forces seeking to oust Libyan leader Muammar Qaddafi. Both inside and outside the Obama administration, then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was among the most vocal early proponents of using U.S. military force to unseat Qaddafi. Seven months and thousands of more unnecessary deaths later, in October 2011, after an extended military campaign with sustained Western support, Islamist rebel forces conquered the country and shot Qaddafi dead. Many will recall Hillary Clinton, on October 20, 2011, cackling to a TV news reporter over the death of Qaddafi: “We came, we saw, he died.”

Since then, Libya has been in a constant state of chaos, with factional infighting, no uniting leader and has provided a haven for ISIS and other Islamic terrorists; culminating in the September 11, 2012 attack on the US Consulate in Benghazi and the death of four Americans.

In released, but redacted emails, Hillary Clinton expressed interest in arming Libyan opposition groups using private security contractors. In an April 8, 2011 email to her then-deputy chief of staff, Jake Sullivan, Clinton wrote: “FYI. The idea of using private security experts to arm the opposition should be considered.” It now appears probable that, in 2011, at Clinton’s urging, Obama secretly approved the arming of rebels in Libya and, later Syria by the same method, via a third party, likely Qatar, who had brokered the sale of more than $100 million in crude oil from rebel-held areas.

The rise of ISIS can be directly linked to the power vacuum left after the premature withdrawal of US forces from Iraq in December 2011 and fueled by American abdication of a foreign policy in Syria, where we sub-contracted our interests to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Turkey. Not surprisingly, those countries pursued their own interests; the Saudis supporting radical Islamic Salafists, while the Turks and Qataris backed the Muslim Brotherhood.

By the summer of 2012, Turkey, together with Saudi Arabia and Qatar, had constructed a fully operational secret command and control center to facilitate communications and the movement of weapons to the Syrian rebel groups. The center in Adana, a city in southern Turkey about 100 km (60 miles) from the Syrian border, was set up after Saudi Deputy Foreign Minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Abdullah al-Saud visited Turkey and requested it. Adana is home to Incirlik, a large Turkish/U.S. air force base which Washington has used in the past for reconnaissance and military logistics operations. Adana is in close proximity to the Turkish port of Iskenderun, a major transit point for arms destined for the Syrian rebels.

It is important to note that Obama’s friend, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, is a Sunni Islamist, a vehement opponent of Syrian President Bashar al Assad and a fervent supporter of the Sunni Muslim Brotherhood.

Assad has placed emphasis on controlling northwest Syria, which safeguards his Shia-Alawite home region and his base of support, as well as securing the strategically critical coastal area containing the Latakia airbase used by Russian forces and the important port of Tartus – a situation that has largely left eastern Syria along the Iraq border open for Islamist exploitation.

A Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) report sent to Hillary Clinton and other administration officials in August 2012 and declassified in May 2015, stated that “the Salafist, the Muslim Brotherhood, and AQI (Al- Qaeda in Iraq, which became ISIS) are the major forces driving the insurgency in Syria,” and being supported by “the West, Gulf countries and Turkey.”

The report goes into detail about how the West was actively helping those opposition groups control the eastern border of Syria near the Iraqi province of Anbar and the strategic city of Mosul, both of which eventually came under control of ISIS.

The stupidity of Obama’s ideological and Muslim Brotherhood-centric policy in dealing with radical Islam is only exceeded by the galactic incompetence in which it was carried out, and has left us living in a more dangerous world.

Fears of a Hillary Clinton Presidency Is Driving Gun Sales Through the Roof

/0 Comments/in , /by

At a gun store in small town West Virginia, sales are booming in the wake of the most recent terrorist attack in Orlando.

“As dealers, we were already sitting very heavy on the AR-15s in anticipation of Hillary becoming president, and then the shooting happened and we’ve sold 16 just today. We sold 11 yesterday, we sold 6 the day before,” Tom Millay, president of Valley Guns II told Conservative Review. “We’ve also had a lot of people buying concealed carry weapons, at least a half a dozen in the last few days that are buying their gun for the first time.”

But Millay noted while the shooting has spiked sales over the last several days, what’s really driving the sales consistently is the prospect of a Hillary Clinton presidency.

“There’s the anticipation of a ban from Obama or Hillary that’s really moving people to buy the AR-15 style firearms,” he said.

The shop is even having a “Hillary Clinton Hot Buy” sale, encouraging customers to “get them before she does!”

“It was a calm before the storm waiting for Hillary to become president,” Millay told CR. “It’s building up and getting busier every day.”

So Hillary and Obama, a message from all gun shop owners: keep spewing your gun control rhetoric, it’s great for business! (For more from the author of “Hillary Clinton Is Driving Gun Sales” please click HERE)

Look What Else Obama Wants Banned After Orlando Attack

/0 Comments/in , , /by

In the week following the Orlando shooting, presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump sharply criticized President Obama for being unable to use the words “radical Islamic terrorism.” Obama, visibly agitated, said “calling a threat by a different name does not make it go away…There’s no magic to the phrase of radical Islam. It’s a political talking point.”

Now it seems the Department of Homeland Security wants to ban additional words that are normally associated with Islam.

In a proposal submitted this month by the Countering Violent Extremism Subcommittee, they recommended not using words like “jihad” or “sharia law.” The subcommittee concluded that these terms created an “us vs. them” mentality.

The Department of Homeland Security was also asked to use words that are more inclusive to the Muslim community. Words such as “American Muslim” rather than “Muslim American.”

This is all part of an attempt to combat extremism here in the United States. The department says this operation, which will cost $100 million, will involve hiring experts and developing new social media programs and technology to influence young people not to join terror groups.

“The department must reframe the conversation to reflect this reality and design a robust program around the protection of our youth, which must include predator awareness and an understanding of radicalization. In doing so, our citizens will be better equipped for this threat,” the report says.

The report also urges greater private sector cooperation, including with Muslim communities, to counter what is described as a “new generation of threats to the Homeland related to the threat of violent extremism.” (For more from the author of “Look What Else Obama Wants Banned After Orlando Attack” please click HERE)

Report: DHS Official Protected San Bernardino Terror Suspect From Authorities

/0 Comments/in , , /by

How is it that a federal official is allowed to impede a terrorism case and face no punitive repercussions? This is what happened in the case where U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services-USCIS (part of the Department of Homeland Security-DHS) supervisor Irene Martin restricted access to five armed DHS agents. The agents were sent in response to FBI knowledge that Enrique Marquez, the man who allegedly provided weapons to the perpetrators of the San Bernardino shooting, was arranged to have an interview (along with his wife, Mariya Chernykh) with Martin’s personnel the day after the actual attack.

At the time Marquez and his wife were likely under suspicion by immigration services for their fraudulent marriage. Authorities later described the intention of the two individuals noting, “They wed so she could obtain immigration benefits unavailable to her as a Russian citizen without legal status in the U.S.” Investigators assert Marquez in return received $200 per month to ‘marry’ Mariya Chernykh (sister to the wife of Syed Raheel Farook/older brother to one of the terrorists in San Bernardino shooting).

So, when federal officials went to USCIS to apprehend Marquez, Martin denied them access to the suspect. Fox News reports on the incident:

It is not clear what disciplinary action Martin could face, but the report last week faulted her for making agents wait more than 90 minutes before she gave them access to related files on the suspected terrorist, and then she dismissively ordered them to hand copy files, according to the federal report. Agents told building security they intended to arrest Marquez to prevent him from killing anyone, but Martin had them wait 30 minutes just to see her. When questioned by IG investigators later, Martin repeatedly changed her story and also contradicted what other witnesses said.

Feminist: Toddler’s Gator Death ‘Social Justice’

/0 Comments/in , , /by

On Tuesday night outside a Walt Disney World hotel, a 2-year-old boy was snatched by an alligator and dragged into a lagoon in front of his vacationing parents. The father, attempting to rescue his baby boy, wrestled the alligator in vain. Tragically, the toddler was found dead on Wednesday.

Upon the report of the gut-wrenching incident, a disgusting racist feminist known as “Brienne of Snarth” on Twitter felt the need to voice her reprehensible views on the matter. She didn’t care that the 2-year-old was killed in front of his family. After all, the father—suffering through undoubtedly the worst tragedy he will ever face—was a white male.Therefore, the toddler’s death was an act of “social justice,” according to the feminist.

Brienne of Snarth commented: “I’m so finished with white men’s entitlement lately that I’m really not sad about a 2yo being eaten by a gator bc his daddy ignored signs.”

The account has since been deleted, but journalist Paul Joseph Watson captured the tweet by screenshot:

Democrats’ Secret Playbook for Trump – Revealed!

/0 Comments/in , /by

It’s probably the most important document of the 2016 election – and now you can get it for free.

The internal research file compiled by the Democratic Party on Republican nominee Donald Trump was recently hacked, reportedly by Russian intelligence. More than 200 pages were stolen, detailing the exact lines of attack Hillary Clinton and the Democratic Party plan to unleash on the Republican nominee.

However, even this tale of international intrigue may be less explosive than the real truth. Donald Trump recently accused the Democratic National Committee of deliberately leaking the document. The real-estate tycoon and television star noted the Democratic Party has not apologized for allowing this secret data to be accessed and suggested they should . . .

The document contains a detailed examination of Donald Trump’s business record, political positions, and personal relationships. Going back decades, it’s an exhaustive analysis of those items Hillary Clinton believes will allow her to destroy the populist standard bearer of the Republican Party.

However, it also previews the attack lines the Democrats are likely to use in the campaign. For example, it denounces Trump’s “divisive and offensive campaign” and provides the exact quotes the Democrats believe supports this narrative.

Media Banned From Trump Summit With Christian Leaders

/0 Comments/in , /by

One of the largest gatherings of evangelical leaders in a generation will take place Tuesday here under the veil of a media blackout.

The guests of honor and the main speakers will be Donald Trump and Dr. Ben Carson – and it will not only be closed to the press, it will be sealed with tight security.

The event at the Marriott Marquis has some wondering whether the daylong program, titled “A Conversation About America’s Future with Donald Trump and Ben Carson,” offers what looks to some involved like the first glimpse of a possible 2016 GOP presidential ticket, as the presumptive nominee meets with as many as 900 Christian conservative leaders, including James Dobson, Ralph Reed, Penny Nance of Concerned Women for America, Tim Wildmon of the American Family Association, Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council, American Values President Gary Bauer and many megachurch pastors.

Many of those invited to the gathering were not early supporters of Trump. Some have still not endorsed him.

As Perkins said, “Many evangelicals did not support him. There are many out there that I think would like to, but there is some uncertainty. … Look, as evangelicals, Christians, conservatives in this process, we not only want to have influence but we also have to be a witness to the truth. And, so part of that is, ‘Alright, let’s have a conversation about these issues. Maybe you didn’t think through them.’ And I give him the benefit of the doubt that as a businessman who’s been doing other things, he’s not thought through these policies, and that’s why you’ll see him from time to time change his positions once it’s been explained to him.” (Read more from “Media Banned From Trump Summit With Christian Leaders” HERE)

Orlando Panics as Mall Incident Spurs Evacuation, Fears of Attack

/0 Comments/in , /by

An incident at an Orlando shopping mall on Saturday revealed the fear and panic Orlando citizens are currently experiencing beneath the very thin veneer of calm.

Deputies were called to the Orlando Vineyard Premium Outlets at about 2 p.m.

“Preliminary investigation reveals it was a fight and people panicked,” Orange County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson Rose Silva said in a statement. “It is still early in the investigation and deputies are sorting everything out.

The panic ensued because the disturbance morphed into a shooting on social media. Some media reports said chairs being knocked over may have sounded like shots to those closest to the disturbance.

Although there was no evidence of a shooting, the Orange County Sheriff’s Office put the open air mall on lockdown while they conducted a sweep. About an hour after the lockdown was imposed, the mall was reopened.

The incident added to frayed nerves of Orlando residents.

Orlando has been rocked recently, first by the murder of singer Christina Grimmie on June 10, and then by the Sunday massacre of 49 people in the nation’s largest mass shooting. Orlando was also the sight of the death of a 2-year-old Nebraska boy killed by an alligator as he waded in a Disney resort lagoon.

“Tensions are high right now,” said Douglas Dobbs, owner of the Dobbs Funeral Home in Orlando, noting the community consciousness as the funerals of the victims are starting to take place.

This Week Proves, Again, That Progressivism Is a Cult

/0 Comments/in , /by

I’ve always enjoyed revisiting the works of Greek philosophy. In no small part because though they were pagans, they were also critical thinkers.

There they were at the dawn of Western Civilization, drinking a runaway train of reality through a firehose with no intellectual roadmap to speak of, and nothing but their wits and a firm resolve to follow the truth wherever it leads. That takes courage. Casting aside the comfort of routine and intellectual malaise is no easy thing, and the Greeks, no doubt, had a penchant for wallowing in sloth and decadence just as much as we Americans do.

But they persisted. They stumbled. Sometimes they even drank poison and died. Sometimes they were wrong, other times they were excellent, but they were almost always serious about knowing how the world really works and why.

Which makes them the exact opposite of today’s progressives.

This last week, following the horror of Orlando, has been a greatest hits tribute to a disordered tribe jacked up on intellectual witchcraft. To claim progressives believe in unicorns would be flattering, compared to the actual buffoonery and obfuscation they have pushed on us from every progressive street corner like a bunch of meth dealers.

For example, a murderous rampage committed by a gay Democrat Muslim, through some godless and insane application of the transverse property, has been of course used to hang responsibility around the necks of Christians and conservatives.

Point of order: The most absurd thing about the progressive’s ‘Stop the Hate’ pleas are that nobody, and I mean nobody, does hate better than progressives. We are talking Sith-level hate. When they say ‘love is love,’ they mean ‘get to the back of the bus, you bigot.’ When they say ‘tolerance’ they mean ‘safe space for me, but not for thee.’

CNN’s Anderson Cooper, an open homosexual, thinks your tears for 49 dead people aren’t real if you’ve never tweeted about gay pride, and he will tell you so on the air. Because… journalism or something. I guess that means Cooper can’t really grieve for the Christians being crucified by ISIS because he rejects Jesus Christ as his Savior.

But wait, Sham Wow, there’s more.

A writer for the website Vox said he wants the president to “unilaterally ban people” from buying guns. And not to be outdone, Sen. Joe Manchin, a Democrat from West Virginia, said that “due process” is the main obstacle to stopping evil.

Yep, there goes that pesky Bill of Rights again. The Founding Fathers may as well have raised their hand and sworn an oath on a Koran the way they keep terrorizing us with their Sharia-like rules. I just knew something didn’t seem right about those dead old white men and all that “give me liberty or give me death” crap.

The New York Times thinks the Book of Romans in the New Testament calls for executing homosexuals. Because nothing says “homophobic” like the following prose (taken from — gasp! — the Book of Romans):

For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Lest you think these are just the excusable rantings of sad and frustrated people in the wake of a senseless disaster, think again and think hard. This is the era of bold-faced lies such as “how is my gay marriage going to affect you” and “if you like your doctor, you can keep him.” If progressives have proven anything in recent years it’s that they are accomplished liars.

They are coming for everything including the kitchen sink, and are doing so with all the intellectual rigor of that toddler you saw throwing a temper tantrum at the mall the other day. A gay Muslim Democrat may have done the killing here, but a Christian Republican NRA member is sure as hell going to pay for it.

In all fairness, though, the progressive bug has also infected some corners of Christianity itself with a sort of self-loathing and doctrinal delinquency. Catholic Bishop Robert Lynch of St. Petersburg, Florida, wrote in a national editorial following what happened in Orlando that “sadly it is religion, including our own, which targets, mostly verbally, and also often breeds contempt for gays, lesbians and transgender people. Attacks today on LGBT men and women often plant the seed of contempt, then hatred, which can ultimately lead to violence.”

These are the words of an idiot drunk on red herrings and false equivalencies. He should be ashamed, if not excommunicated. And as his penance, perhaps he should familiarize himself with a story out of Iraq that occurred last month.

A 12-year-old Christian girl was burnt to death in her home by members of ISIS, because her family failed to pay a religious tax on time. Yet what were the girl’s dying words to her mother?

“Forgive them.”

Cast the progressive devil out of your house, bishop. And the same to you, America. For if this little girl had the courage to follow the truth wherever it leads, even to her martyrdom, why on earth don’t you?
