CatholicVote.com wants to run an ad for the Super Bowl that makes one, simple, honest point that every human can agree on. That’s what makes this ad so powerful. And that’s exactly why NBC rejected it. They claim that they are not interested in advertisements involving “political advocacy or issues.” Sure they aren’t.
March for Life Tens of thousands (perhaps more) showed up to march on Washington and demand real change. And even though the press every year largely tries to pretend it didn’t happen – it’s good. Front Page Blogma I was honored to have my book review of “The Fathers” (by Pope Benedict XVI) featured on [...]
Obama is set to sign an executive order today lifting the ban on U.S. federal aid for abortions. This is no surprise. Reagan originally put this ban in place in 1984. It essentially restricted organizations who receive U.S. funds from using that money to then perform or promote abortions with it. In other words, Reagan [...]
The battle lines are already forming as the pro-life and pro-family community brace themselves for the Obama administration. Last week the US Conference of Catholic Bishops released a letter to Obama with concerns for his proposed agenda. Looking to build on all of his campaign rhetoric of unity and coming together, they articulated some very [...]
I’m very proud of our country in a lot of ways today. In many ways we needed somebody to help us believe in ourselves again. We needed to believe that “Yes we can.” And it’s not a yes we can do this…or yes we can do that. It’s just this general sentiment that nobody seems [...]
President Bush has given one last shout out to all the babies in the womb. On December 18th, he recently signed into legislation a group of measures that are known as the “conscience rule.” Essentially, these measures further protect health care workers from being discriminated against for refusing to participate in the killing of other [...]
Sounds crazy, right? But it’s not as crazy as it sounds. Barack Obama made a promise to Planned Parenthood that “the first thing I’d do as President is sign the Freedom of Choice Act. That’s the first thing I’d do.” This is a top priority of his. And if congress can pass it, he has [...]
Is Barack Obama already breaking campaign promises? It appears that way. And he hasn’t even moved into the White House yet! At least Bill Clinton and George H. W. Bush waited a couple years before breaking their campaign promises on taxes. Barack Obama just ran a campaign against the Bush tax cuts and how they [...]
It’s easy to lose hope in a culture that continually challenges and contradicts our Faith. And in many ways it is our response to those challenges that build up our faith the most. But it’s also nice to often remember the many positive and good things that are happening in the world, too. So here [...]
Although this election did not go as many of us would have liked and did not go in favor of LIFE, I am still a person of great hope – hope in our country, our world, and most importantly our God. Now, as much as ever, it is important for us as Catholics, Americans and [...]
Charisma A rare personal quality attributed to leaders who arouse fervent popular devotion and enthusiasm. A personal attractiveness or ‘interestingness’ that enables you to influence others. Barack Obama Yesterday I talked about the historic significance of Barack Obama’s presidency. And certainly it is, indeed, historic. But the question has been and will continue to be [...]
