Either Stupak Got Duped....


Or he was pressured and THREATENED by the ObaMAO THUGS to change his "NO" vote to a "yes." Take a look at this press release from the National Right To Life organization:



STATEMENT BY THE NATIONAL RIGHT TO LIFE COMMITTEE
ON ABORTION "DEAL" ON HEALTH CARE LEGISLATION


WASHINGTON -- (Sunday, March 21, 2010, 6 PM EDT) -- In response to today's announcement regarding an agreement between Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mi.) and President Obama on the pending health care bill (H.R. 3590), the following statement was issued by the National Right to Life Committee (NRLC), the federation of right-to-life organizations in the 50 states:



The National Right to Life Committee (NRLC) remains strongly opposed to the Senate-passed health bill (H.R. 3590). A lawmaker who votes for this bill is voting to require federal agencies to subsidize and administer health plans that will pay for elective abortion, and voting to undermine longstanding pro-life policies in other ways as well. Pro-life citizens nationwide know that this is a pro-abortion bill. Pro-life citizens know, and they will be reminded again and again, which lawmakers deserve their gratitude for voting against this pro-abortion legislation.



The executive order promised by President Obama was issued for political effect. It changes nothing. It does not correct any of the serious pro-abortion provisions in the bill. The president cannot amend a bill by issuing an order, and the federal courts will enforce what the law says.



To elaborate: The order does not truly correct any of the seven objectionable pro-abortion provisions described in NRLC's March 19 letter to the House of Representatives, which is posted here: www.nrlc.org/AHC/NRLCToHouseOnHealthBill.pdf

.

Regarding Community Health Centers (CHCs), NRLC has documented the problem created by H.R. 3590 here: www.nrlc.org/AHC/NRLCMemoCommHealth.html.
Prof. Robert Destro, a professor of law and former dean of the Columbus School of Law at the Catholic University of America, and an expert on abortion-related litigation, has sent lawmakers a letter explaining why the bill opens the door to direct federal funding of abortion in Community Health Centers: www.nrlc.org/ahc/DestroLetterToStupakOnCommHealthCenters.pdf

.
Prof. Destro clearly explains why it is the statutory language that will govern.



Regarding the new program to provide tax credits to purchase private insurance, the executive order merely tinkers with the formalities of a bookkeeping scheme under which federal subsidies will pay for plans that cover elective abortion -- a break from the longstanding principles of the Hyde Amendment.



The order does nothing at all to mitigate the other abortion-related problems described in the NRLC letter, dealing with bill provisions that create dangerous regulatory mandate authorities, revise Indian health programs, and create pools of directly appropriated funds that are not covered by existing restrictions on funding of abortion. Nor can the order correct the omission from the pending legislation of the necessary conscience-protection language that had been included in House-passed health care legislation last November (the "Weldon language").



For additional information regarding the abortion-related components of the legislation, and NRLC's assessment of the gravity of these issues, please refer to the March 19 letter linked above, and other materials posted on the NRLC website at www.nrlc.org/AHC/Index.html.

RINO Arnold at it Again!

I am currently reading Glenn Beck's "Arguing With Idiots" book. So far, it has been quite the eye-opener to the schemes of the leftist lunatics in this nation who use lies, distortion, and political expediency to promote their evil, unnecessary, expensive, degrading, immoral, and downright dangerous agenda.

Received the following email from SaveCalifornia.com:

SaveCalifornia.com issued the following news release on Sunday night, Oct. 11, 2009, in the final hours of bill signing by California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger:

Schwarzenegger Signs Bill Indoctrinating Students to Support
Dangerous, Ineffective, Unethical Embryonic Stem Cell Research

Sacramento -- SaveCalifornia.com, a West Coast pro-family, pro-child organization, is appalled that Governor Schwarzenegger has signed a bill authorizing new curriculum to teach schoolchildren the lie that embryonic stem cell research heals people (it doesn't), that it doesn't harm people (it has caused tumors and cancer in patients), and doesn't kill human beings (it does, by destroying human embryos).

"By signing SB 471, curriculum will be created to teach children that embryonic stem cell research is good, helpful, harmless and ethical, when just the opposite is true," said SaveCalifornia.com President Randy Thomasson. "It's absurd for the Legislature and the Governor to continue putting money the state doesn't have, plus valuable classroom time, into California's $3 billion failed experiment on embryonic stem cells. Embryonic stem cell research hasn't produced a single effective treatment, but instead has caused tumors and tissue rejection. It's wrong to lie to children about this."

"The State of California should instead support research in adult stem cells and cord blood stem cells, which are successfully treating more than 70 conditions, ranging from Parkinson's disease to spinal cord injuries to blindness," continued Thomasson. "Dr. Oz says the stem cell debate is over because induced pluripotent stem cells are healing diseases without harming anyone, while embryonic stem cell treatment hasn't healed anyone but has caused cancer and tissue rejection. Morally-acceptable induced pluripotent stem cells, manipulated to behave like embryonic stem cells, have solved the rejection problem because these stem cells are taken from a patients own body."

Research at UCLA using adult stem cells has produced rehabilitative cells without the destruction of human beings. This is worth celebrating, not ignoring.

Earlier this year, it was announced that British and Canadian scientists have discovered a way to produce an almost endless supply of stem cells that could safely be used in patients and research, without any need to destroy human embryos. The cells are made from a person's own skin, carrying the person's own DNA, thus preventing future rejection by the immune system. This is much better than unhelpful and hugely expensive embryonic research.

See adult and cord blood success stories

VIEW Dr. Mehmet Oz explaining to Oprah Winfrey and Michael J. Fox that "the stem cell debate is dead." Dr. Oz says using embryonic stem cells is dangerous and without success, unlike the safety, ethics, and effectiveness of adult and cord blood stem cells:

Text of SB 471


I distinctly recall that Michael Fox was a huge proponent of stem cell research in his call to find a cure for Parkinson's disease (from which he suffers). He bashed President George W. Bush for not being willing to federally fund embryonic stem cell research; except for the 53(?) lines that were released. Bush reasoned that those lines would have ultimately been destroyed anyway. How the celebrities got on the bandwagon ridiculing Bush for this, (and, quite frankly, EVERYTHING!) simply because the President refused to allow the use of taxpayer dollars to fund the killing of embryos for helping to find a cure for various adult diseases. As far as I know, private funds for such research has not been stopped.

Now, we find out the truth. The truth is that adult stem cells and umbilical cord blood research is far more promising towards the end result of finding cures for disease. We must ask ourselves, WHY DOES THE LEFT STILL WANT TO KILL EMBRYOS FOR RESEARCH WHEN IT IS ALREADY OBVIOUS THAT EMBRYONIC STEM CELL RESEARCH HAS FAILED? Does anyone know the answer to that question?

And now, RINO Arnold is perpetuating the lie through signing a bill to allow the teaching of embryonic stem cell research in schools!

We have a liar bogus POTUS and also a governor who signs lies into law. What an ugly and terribly sad situation we are living through in our nation today - especially for our children.

THE Best "Choose Life" Ad EVER!

The person that came up with this ad idea is a genius! Hard for ANYONE to argue against it! Best pro-life message I have ever seen. It is an illustration of one of my favorite sayings - Choose Life, Your Mother Did!

I have been asked by some Obama supporters whether or not I would be willing to pray for Obama. I do pray. I pray that he will come to the authentic realization that he is a sinner, desperately in need of the Savior, Jesus Christ. I pray that he will be GENUINELY born again in Christ through confession and repentance for his sin. I pray that he will one day kneel, at the foot of the Cross of Christ and acknowledge Christ's sacrificial death for his sins. I pray that he will ask the Lord to forgive him, and cleanse him of that sin. I pray that he will ask Jesus Christ into his heart as Lord and Savior of his life. I pray that through the power of the Holy Spirit, and in his renewed life and ongoing walk with Christ, that the sanctification of his heart will occur and that Obama will turn away from his evil ways and terrible policies.

I pray that he will realize the error of his pro-death-to-babies policies, and change his mind about them. I pray that he will choose life - his mother did.

Imagine the Potential

*******
Update: 1/30/09 -

My friend Neil over at Eternity Matters has placed this video in a post called A Great Day For Life! My comment there:

Even though I still think that Obama is not a natural born citizen, and therefore, ineligible to be POTUS (unless his real father is someone other than Obama Sr.), this video makes two reasons why I can see God's hand in the election.

The first reason is because so many of the blacks and hispanics in California who voted for Obama, also voted to pass Proposition 8.

The second reason is because this video is getting around and I pray that millions will see it and lean them towards the pro-life position for the unborn.

These are two issues that many, many Christians have been praying about for years.

Despite Obama's overt support for homosexual indoctrination and causes, he has, inadvertently and ironically, also had an impact for the Christian, pro-traditional family, pro-biblical marriage issue (via passage of Prop. 8 in CA) that marriage should always remain as the union of one man and one woman.

Despite Obama's overt and lethal pro-death-to-babies-in-the-womb worldview and policies, it has led to a video so powerful for the pro-life cause (starring him!!) that he is also, inadvertently and ironically, having a huge impact for pro-life causes!

Only God could accomplish such a feat! Praise Jesus!!

What is Ahead for America?

The title of this post is a question on many minds as we are about to witness the inauguration of the 44th president. I had sincerely hoped that it would have been ANYONE other than Barack Hussein Obama. I had sincerely hoped that one of the lawsuits against Obama to prove whether or not he has met the "natural born citizen" requirement for POTUS in Article II Section 1 of our United States Constitution would have been resolved by now. However, with the courts being closed this coming Monday and Tuesday, any decisions or hearing looming on the horizon will not be completed until after January 20th. It appears that only an act of God could change the course of this liberal licientious, Marxist socialist from taking office.

Early this morning, I found an absolutely awesome biblically based Christian website! It is called American Prophet.org. If you will notice, I have made it my "website of the week" and the link can be found at the top of this page in my sidebar. I would encourage everyone to go to that link check it out.

There are so many excellent articles at the site! It was difficult to choose just one for this post. However, I have settled on the one entitled, "Prophecy 2009 – What is Ahead for America" by Rev M. Bresciani.

The following is Rev. M. Bresciani's essay in its entirety:

Quote:

This article was birthed December 16, 2008 the day after the Electoral College cast their votes making Barack Obama the 44th President of the United States. I felt compelled and duty bound to say these things to anyone who has ears to hear. I have no doubt not many will listen but I also know that as each year passes I will gain hearers exponentially.

Although Obama isn’t the only key figure to watch, his presidency will set the stage for hundreds of events that will shake America. A shaking I generally predict will be the worst period in our entire history as a nation. He managed to skip over the eligibility question and has entered his administration with doubt hanging over it and its constitutionality. At this moment not many people care about that.

My first prediction is that those who have questioned his eligibility as a natural born citizen will not stop trying to uncover the truth at any time during his presidency. My second forecast is that a growing number of people who once supported Barack Obama will join that investigation in time. When the honeymoon period is over the truth may then come out, that will be one of the most confusing days America will ever be asked to face.

For the first part of 2009 it will be like a circle of happy children dancing around the Maypole with everyone in blithe anticipation for the next move Obama makes. In 2010 the tables will shift and by the end of his first term he will lose over half of his original support.

I can safely say not as a prediction but as a prophetic surety that his administration will not end without the greatest economic downturn in our history as a nation. In the end it will make the stock market crash of 1929 look like a boom time.

Trusted financial institutions will fold like a house of cards and the Fed will be helpless to save them. Consumer goods will start to disappear and gasoline will be the least of our problems. These things will begin in late 2009 and will take a few years to unfold entirely.

Those who hold a Jeffersonian or Deistic view of God, agnostics and atheists will always doubt that God exists or if he does that he bothers to intervene in the affairs of men. Here is America’s biggest mistake. God not only does guide every detail of history but he does not need a mighty nation to bring down a reprobate people. They are bringing themselves down.

Why would God diminish the economy? The answer is almost too easy. Firstly it is because our securities are what we all hold dear. The economy is always the talk of the nation and morality, abortion, the gay agenda and all else are made to take a back seat to the revered matter of Americas fiscal well being. When all the warnings have been ignored; judgment strikes at the very heart of a nation. Sadly most Americans today are convinced that the economy is the heart of the nation. I can safely say it is not nor has it ever been

Secondly it might serve well to grab a calculator and sit down for some quick math. The reason most often heard for an abortion in this nation is so the child will not be brought into a situation where the support may not exist. President Elect Obama is basing his promise to make abortion available to anyone at any time during their pregnancy as a first act in office on this notion. If he does a double term of eight years another twelve million babies will be aborted during his administration.

Add to the twelve million the fifty million already aborted at the rate of 4,000 per day since 1973 and you have a grand total of 62,000,000 human lives snuffed out to save a buck for moms who don’t think they can find the dough. Now let’s get out the calculators. The average cost of raising a child for a single parent in the U.S. from birth to four years in a public college is $190,000. Multiply that times sixty two million and the amount totals over twelve trillion dollars.

We talk about the national debt but no one thinks we are indebted to God. In fact we are. Economic collapse; yes about twelve trillion dollars worth. That is exactly what I predict the interest notwithstanding.

Wishy washy Christianity will also rack up a few deficits. This church that finds nothing more to preach about than earthly prosperity is a ragged bunch of spiritually starving positive thinkers who have become the greatest negative example of discipleship in American history. Jesus is about to spit the lukewarm water out of his mouth. Rev 3:16

Christian ministries will not only suffer from their own apostasy but major house bills and social trends will squeeze the true church to the point of open persecution. Conservative Christian organizations like ADF one of America’s top defenders of our rights and the rights of Christians and Churches started a 2009 budget projection at $8,000,000, compare that to the ACLUs $220,000,000 projection and you’ll get the picture.

You will see dozens of multilateral decisions made by this administration that will erode the sovereignty of the United States. The solid base of support for Israel will also begin to suffer.

Not once in my entire life have I ever so much as even guessed at whom in our world could be the Antichrist or the False Prophet described by the prophets of old and the book of Revelation. During the meteoric rise of Barack Obama I first began to think he may be the False Prophet who aids the rise of the EU ruler we will all come to know as the Antichrist. I am still watching that and I am not ashamed to say that it looks like more of a possibility with each passing day.

It should be noted that regardless of exactly who Antichrist or the False Prophet turns out to be the stage must be set first. Only the blind could not see that the stage is already set. Secular liberalism is a worldwide phenomenon that has reared its head with the age being inundated with demonic forces (Rev 16:13) most of them will be readily received after being offered by the leaders of the last days world leaders.

With abortion, euthanasia and the gay agenda leading the way the judgments will come long before those waiting with bated breath can see the first man wander outside of our own solar system in a man made craft.

Those leading the world in the last days are all believers. No not believers in the gospel but believers in their own secular agenda. The blank committed stares and almost childlike impassioned rhetoric seen in Hitler, Stalin, Saddam and Osama Bin Laden are prime examples of believers. They are always convinced that what they are doing is right. They are always wrong. They become extremely dangerous when a majority of people start to believe them.

If that is so then it is only the bad news before the good news. I am sure that near the end of my life or shortly thereafter every promise of the second coming of Christ will be fulfilled and he will be standing in person in the city of Jerusalem only moments after the end of the battle of Armageddon. Every army in the world will be gathered in the plains of Esdraelon approximately 55 miles north of Jerusalem and will meet their doom in that valley.

My life is nearly over and while it may last just a little longer than you can hold your breath you may not want to start a 30 year retirement fund.

There is nothing new here for me I have been forecasting these things for over three decades the only difference now is that they are unfolding right before my eyes.

Many people think they should grab their things a huge supply of food and head for the mountains. They are merely looking for a door or a way out of it all. Is there a door and what is the way out?

I will let two passages spoken by Jesus Christ answer that question and my best advice is that you take them very seriously.

“I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.” (Jn 10:9)

“For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it.” (Mk 8:35)

Regardless of the details of prophetic events Christ is still the “door” by which you can change your eternal destiny and direction. This proclamation has seen its peak of public acceptance and is now waning in general acceptance but it is meant for only one individual at a time. It is my prayer at the beginning of 2009 that the person who heeds this warning will be you. /quote
