It's Been Kinda Quiet

Yes, I know it's been a slow couple of weeks. Mostly because I want to focus in on certain topics like abortion, attacks on Christianity/religious freedom, debunking evolution, etc. and well there hasn't been much to talk about lately.

A couple of things to keep your eyes on though:

1. There is talk of President Obama rescinding the "conscience" clause as it relates to abortion laws. This clause states that no doctor, nurse or health worker will be forced to provide birth control or abortion services if it violates their conscience for religious or moral reasons. I haven't written much about it because only a few articles have come out regarding this. But watch for it. No matter what President Obama says in regards to him wanting fewer abortions, he is a very pro-abortion person. We've seen this in his voting record, he has overturned the Mexico City policy, he's picked a equally pro-abortion person to head up HHS, and I do not doubt that he will rescind the conscience clause as well as sign FOCA into law. We'll see though.

2. Keep an eye on this administrations policy towards Israel. Israel is the only democratic nation within a very radical Islamic part of the world. Because of our long standing peace and friendship with Israel we've been able to calm much of the issues between Israel and all the surrounding nations that would like nothing more than to wipe Israel off the map. If we turn our backs on Israel I would expect hostilities to mount against them and I would not blame Israel, a nuclear nation, to defend themselves. Many people have doubted Mr. Obama's words that he supports Israel, but once again his actions are all anti-Israel. Most recently his pick for the top intelligence analyst post Charles Freeman. Many republicans are calling for the president to withdraw him as nominee for this position because of some very controversial statements Mr. Freeman has made in the past. He said the Chinese government acted too slowly to crack down on protesters in Tiananmen Square in 1989. Mr. Freeman has also criticized American policies supporting Israel. So keep an eye on how our relations with Israel go.

That's it for now...
