THE PRESIDENCY
OBAMA AND ISRAEL - President Barack Obama walked out of a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to have dinner privately this past Tuesday night. The PM and his aides were directed out of the Oval Office to the Roosevelt Room, which is rather small, to wait and confer. After Obama finished dinner he summoned Netanyahu back to the Oval Office. The Israeli delegation, fearing that their conversations were being recorded, said little of importance to each other while waiting for Obama to dine. Obama further insulted Prime Minister Netanyahu by refusing to have their picture taken together. Obama has no problem doing cuddly smiling photos with Marxist dictator Hugo Chavez, and he even bows and gives hugs to murderous Saudi royalty who trample the rights of their citizens. Obama believes the anti-Semitic rhetoric of his pastor of twenty years, Jeremiah Wright who claimed that all the world's problems could be solved by forcing Israel to its 1948 borders. Once that is done, Obama naively believes, the fanatical attacks by Muslims on the United States will stop.  
OBAMA'S ABORTION ORDER - One day after a lavish White House ceremony signing his "health care reform" law, President Obama signed an executive order that he was forced to agree to, which bars federally funded abortions. The signing was behind closed doors and no photographs or media were present. As his self imposed deadline approached for the vote on the "Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act," President Obama was forced to cut a deal with pro-life Democrat Congressman Bart Stupak and his group. Even though Democrats hold a near 40 seat margin in the House, the bill passed by only three votes. Without the otherwise very liberal pro-life Stupak and his group the bill would not have passed. The Executive Order is actually meaningless. Codified laws (those passed by Congress) supersede executive orders. Read expert analysis by Congressman Tiahrt

THE CONGRESS
CHURCH SERVICE IN THE CAPITOL - On Sunday, March 21st at 11:00 AM, Members of Congress held a church service in Statuary Hall (the old House chamber) in the Capitol. Only members of Congress, their spouses and staff were permitted to attend. The church service was called by Republican leaders because Speaker Nancy Pelosi had demanded a Sunday vote for the "historic" Obama Care entitlement program. Members felt they would not be able to attend church in their home districts and still make it back in time for votes. Because the Chapel in the Capitol is far too small to hold the number of people that would be in attendance, the church service was held in Statuary Hall.

This was an historic moment. To my knowledge no church service has been held in the Capitol Building itself since 1868. It has been well over 150 years since the Capitol Building was used for a church service; however, from the time it was built until after the Civil War, weekly church services were held there. Congressman Randy Forbes, the founder of the Prayer Caucus, organized the service and officiated at it. My good friend Todd Akin led the singing of Amazing Grace.
 

OBAMA AND THE SUICIDE BOMBER MEMORIAL - Congressman Eric Cantor (R-VA) pointed to Obama's amazing double standard in his treatment of Israel. The congressman pointed out that during VP Biden's visit to Israel, the Palestinian Authority unveiled a statue to a suicide bomber who had killed 38 innocent civilians including 13 children at a market. Apparently Obama and Biden were perfectly OK with the public statue to this mass murderer being dedicated during Biden's visit. Yet they were bent on punishing Israel for building homes for Jews in their own capital city. Read Cantor's statement.

March 19, 2010 - Washington, DC

Obama shows the world how not to govern / Does Obama hate israel? / Hillary Clinton's anti-Israel tirade / Will Congress vote to pass health care, or vote to deem it to pass, or just pass to deem it? / Eric Cantor says Democrat leaders practice in a "malfeasant manner." / New powers, money and agents for the IRS / Huge victory for "under God" in the Pledge / Nigeria and the I-word / Iraqi Christian refugees
 
NEW MARCH CHAIRMAN'S REPORT NOW ONLINE- The March 3, 2010 Chairman's Report is now available online in PDF format. This issue contains information on persecuted Christians in Pakistan and Iraq. How Congress really works and why it doesn't. Click here for PDF version.
 
THE PRESIDENCY 
HOW NOT TO GOVERN - Criticizing your own nation abroad, while threatening your allies and coddling your enemies, is not a formula to successfully govern. President Barack Obama in early 2009 had a far left agenda that included socialized medicine, and at that time he had the popularity to pass his agenda through Congress. Instead of concentrating on his agenda, he went on one victory lap after another around the world, apologizing for America and thanking Islam for its contributions to our society. His latest victory lap was supposed to be to Indonesia to visit the madrassa he attended as a child. That trip has now been canceled because his agenda is failing in a Congress dominated by his own party. Obama's ego allowed him to believe that he was so loved, not only in America but worldwide, that anything he suggested would become law. Now he must claw and fight in Congress for every vote to save his "health reform" agenda by alternately threatening and bribing lawmakers. Regardless of whether there is a narrow win in the House this weekend for his health care agenda, Obama is badly wounded. There is political blood in the water and both sides can smell it. Republicans are eager for the battle they hid from just months ago, and Democratic congressmen are in hiding from their constituents.  
DOES OBAMA HATE ISRAEL? - During his early education at an Islamic madrassa in Indonesia, Barack Obama was taught the "evils" of the Jewish race. As a politician, even as a Senator, he attended a church where anti-semitism was preached from the pulpit. Some of it must have rubbed off, because he is insisting that Israel reduce itself to the size of a large ghetto and allow Palestinians who have not lived a day of their lives in Israel to become citizens and be allowed to vote. The terms for "peace" that Barack Obama has given to Israel would have the effect of ending its existence. With a straight face he then tells the world that Israel is "our closest ally." If this is how we treat our "closest ally," the member nations of NATO may want to turn to Russia as a partner.
CLINTON'S TIRADE AGAINST ISRAEL - Secretary of State Hillary Clinton called Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu on the phone and lectured him for 45 minutes because it was an "affront" to America that Jews would announce building homes in Jerusalem while Vice President Biden was visiting there. During the one way conversation she told the Prime Minister that in order to even hold "peace talks" Israel must agree in advance to stop all construction on any land that Palestinians claim. Israel must also agree to split Jerusalem in half so that Palestinians can have an Islamic capital there. Her last demand was for Israel to agree to allow the "descendants" of the "original" Palestinians to return to Israel to live. In essence Clinton demanded that Israel agree to destroy itself as a precondition to peace talks. Concerning the 330 rockets that have been fired into Israel from the Gaza Strip in the last year, Secretary Clinton had nothing to say. In her mind the Palestinian extremists can do no wrong and they are justified in their murderous actions by Israel's refusal to hand over Jerusalem to them. REALITY: Oil rich Muslim royal families hold so much of the U.S. debt that they can dictate our foreign policy. America has sold its soul to the highest bidder for cash, to pay for the entitlement programs that buy votes.

THE CONGRESS
DEEM IT PASSED? - I was no fan of Republican House Speaker Dennis Hastert. He took Newt Gingrich's Republican Revolution victory and turned it into backroom political deals that led to corruption and defeat for the GOP. Hastert had no real ideology; he was a pure politician. Speaker Nancy Pelosi, on the other hand, is an ideologue nutcase who is willing to corrupt the system far more than did Hastert to force her crazy Utopian view of the world on others. Apparently Obama's "health care reform" bill will not come to a vote at all. Instead Pelosi will call for a vote on an amendment that "deems" that it has already passed along with hundreds of pages of amendments that add even more costs, and cut even more from Medicare. Democrat Members of the House will then be able to tell their irate constituents that they did not vote for the unpopular bill; they just voted on an amendment that said it already passed. At all times keep in mind that liberals think that everyone other than themselves is stupid and that they must care for the "masses" with their superior intellect. The "masses," Pelosi believes, will not be able to figure out that those who voted to "deem" the bill passed really voted for the bill.
CANTOR FILES MALFEASANCE CHARGE - "Resolved, that the House disapproves of the malfeasant manner in which the Democratic Leadership has thereby discharged the duties of their offices." That is how the "privileged resolution" of Republican Whip Eric Cantor closed. Ten Democrats actually stepped across the aisle and voted not to table his resolution. Read resolution or see video of Cantor.
NEW POWER FOR IRS - While everyone else is concentrating on the cost of Obama Care, one committee took a close look at the IRS connection and this is what they found in the "health reform bill": * IRS agents verify if you have "acceptable" health care coverage; * IRS has the authority to fine you up to $2,250 or 2 percent of your income (whichever is greater) for failure to prove that you have purchased "minimum essential coverage;" * IRS can confiscate your tax refund; * IRS audits are likely to increase; * IRS will need up to $10 billion to administer the new health care program this decade; * IRS may need to hire as many as 16,500 additional auditors, agents and other employees to investigate and collect billions in new taxes from Americans. Read more.

CULTURE AND RELIGION
HUGE VICTORY FOR "UNDER GOD" - A little over two years ago I wrote The Pledge, One Nation Under God, which centered on the fight to remove "under God" from the Pledge of Allegiance to our flag. At the time atheist Michael Newdow had filed a new case in the 9th Circuit Court, claiming "under God" in the Pledge to be unconstitutional. It was assumed the liberal court would find for him as it had in the past.

Not only did the 9th Circuit rule in favor of "under God" in the Pledge, the ruling went beyond the Supreme Court's usual "ceremonial deism" argument to actually agree that it was a justifiable political statement. The Court agreed that "under God" tapped into the philosophy that "inalienable rights" came from a source beyond the state. Read Ken Blackwell's excellent article fully explaining the victory.

INTERNATIONAL
NIGERIA AND THE "I-WORD" - Last week I wrote about the newest massacre of Christians in Nigeria. Northern Nigeria is now completely dominated by hard line Islamic local governments that have implemented Sharia law. Islam is now reaching to take over and crush freedom in the Christian south. The major concern of the Obama Administration is to make sure Jews don't build homes in Jerusalem.

THE PRESIDENCY
NOTHING HAPPENED IN NIGERIA? - Journalists counted more than 500 bodies of Christians after a bloody attack by Muslims in central Nigeria. One mass grave in Dogo Na Hawa contains 332 Christians who were buried on Monday according to the Nigerian Red Cross. Although Nigeria is half Christian, it has a Muslim president. Officially the government police claim that only 109 died and say it was a reprisal for Muslim cattle being killed in January. Actually there were more than 300 Christians killed in January in the same area. President Obama has no comment on the massacre of Christians. Instead he is preparing for a trip to Muslim Indonesia where he is expected to make another speech thanking Islam for its great contributions to civilization.  
OBAMA'S MARCH OF FOLLY - Everything is being ignored at the White House to concentrate on forcing the Democrat Party controlled Congress to pass Obama Care. The threat of Iranian nukes has been forgotten, our allies are ignored, and the unemployment situation goes to the back of the bus. Obama has even delayed his apology tour to Indonesia by three days to concentrate on talking to members of his own party in the House to vote for Obama Care. Two highly regarded Democrat pollsters had this to say in the Washington Post: "Their blind persistence in the face of reality threatens to turn this political march of folly into an electoral rout in November." Read more of their op-ed.
THE CONGRESS
TEN COMMANDMENTS RESOLUTION COMING - The language for the new Ten Commandments Weekend resolution has been completed and was filed by Congressman Paul Broun (R-GA) today. Ron Wexler of the Ten Commandments Commission and I have been working with various congressional offices for weeks to prepare a resolution. Ten Commandments Weekend is the first weekend in May and will coincide with the May Day 2010, a day of repentance and prayer to be held at the Lincoln Memorial. Please contact your congressman and ask for his support  
HOUSE AT A DEAD STOP - Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi has canceled virtually all committee hearings to have her "team" work full time in getting the votes for taking over one sixth of the American economy with Obama Care. Not even in war time has the entire process of the House been nearly shut down to work on one bill. Democrats have over a forty seat majority and it is her own party that seems not to want to go along with her "march of folly" toward the cliff. Meanwhile the nation's business is being ignored.
"WE WANT PAID ABORTIONS" - Pro-life Democrat Bart Stupak, (D-MI) was told by committee Chairman Waxman that the leadership does want to fund abortion in a national health care plan. On a radio show Stupak recited a conversation between the two men: "I gave him the language. He came back a little while later and said, 'But we want to pay for abortions.' I said, 'Mr. Chairman, that's -- we disagree. We don't do it now, we're not going to start.' "'But we think (we) should,'" Stupak said Waxman told him. Read more

Speaker Polosi now thinks she has bought off enough congressmen to pass Obama Care without Stupak and his pro-lifers. She is scheduling a vote for next week.

CULTURE AND RELIGION
VICTORY FOR "IN GOD WE TRUST" - The decision by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, which ruled that the national motto, "In God We Trust," does not violate the U.S. Constitution, is a victory in the fight to halt the continuing destruction of our nation's religious heritage. This is a victory to savor considering the far left tendencies of the Court. Atheist Michael Newdow who brought the suit against the national motto, also lost a previous court battle against the words "under God" in the Pledge of Allegiance. The Pledge case remains in that Court.  
JIHAD JANE - A Pennsylvania woman known to authorities as "JihadJane" was charged in federal court this week with using the Internet to recruit jihadist fighters. She seemed obsessed with killing Lars Vilks, the Swedish cartoonist who drew the cartoon of Mohammed that caused riots in many parts of the Muslim world. Read more on Jihad Jane. Meanwhile seven more people were also arrested in Ireland for plotting to kill Lars Vilks. Great story on this in the London Times.

INTERNATIONAL
CHRISTIANS SLAUGHTERED IN NIGERIA -The Muslims came in the middle of the night and fired guns into the air. When the women and children ran from their homes they were slaughtered with machetes. Pregnant women, children and infants were not spared. President Bill Clinton sprang into action and bombed Christian Serbia for weeks when less was done to Muslims in that nation. Eventually, a part of Christian Serbia was taken to provide an independent Muslim nation in Europe. But, when Christians are massacred there seems not to be much interest in Washington, DC. Read more  
ISLAMIC TERROR COUNT - In the last seven days Islamic terror attacks (that we know about) have killed in the following countries: Iraq 59, Lebanon 1, Nigar 5, Nigeria 528, Pakistan 61, Somalia 46, Thailand 5, and Yemen 2. More were injured than killed. For more details go to http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/.

THE PRESIDENCY
FULL STEAM AHEAD -President Barack Obama took over the Oval office during one of the worst recessions in history. Rather than focus on jobs and the economy he plunged ahead with a radical leftist agenda. First he flew to the Middle East and apologized to Muslims for America. Then he flew to Europe and Asia and apologized for America. Then he hired as part of his personal staff people such as Van Jones that openly called themselves communists. He appointed radical pro-abortionists and cross-dressers to high positions and began his push to "fix" global warming and the "health care crisis." The result was 3,000,000 more jobs lost and a nation divided. His poll numbers are in the trash and Democratic elected officials don't want to be seen with him. His response? Push on with health care reform, the gay agenda and the Al Gore global warming religion. Our nation needs a president.  
IMMIGRATION "REFORM" NEXT? - President Obama has determined that he has "won" on health care. He has assured himself that he has the votes in the House after he promised the Progressive Caucus (the socialists) that if they voted for the smaller health care reform package that he would be able to pass a nationalized program later. He is moving on to immigration. The president's plan is simple: Legalize millions of illegal immigrants in hopes of securing the Hispanic vote in 2012.
OBAMA'S AL QAEDA LAWYERS - President Obama appointed Eric Holder to head the Justice Department because the two men are as one when it comes to ideology. Thus, don't expect any criticism from Obama over the hiring of lawyers who volunteered their time to defend terrorists held in Gitmo. Let me say that again: The Justice Department is hiring, for pay, ten lawyers who represented terrorists free of charge. It seems that these men are more aligned in thought with Attorney General Holder than with more mainstream members of the bar.

THE CONGRESS
HOW MAJOR HASAN WAS ALLOWED TO MURDER - Before Major Nidal Hasan murdered13 service members plus one unborn baby at Ft. Hood in November, he warned of what he was going to do. In advance he even presented a slide show explaining why it was required of Muslims in the military to kill their fellow soldiers in the name of Islam. He was ignored. The final report of the military said that over a dozen officers should be punished for failing to see that Hasan was becoming violent. This politically correct report did not once mention Islam or use the word terror. Men are being punished who did not report Hasan precisely because they feared the political correctness that infuses the military.

Ft.Hood is in Congressman John Carter's district. He has introduced HR 4267, the Military Whistle Blowers' Protection Act, that would allow members of the military to report individuals such as Nidal Malik Hasan without fear of reprisal. Make no mistake about this: If any of those now being reprimanded had actually stepped forward before the shooting and complained of Hasan's Islamic declarations, they would have been punished. That has to stop and it is the reason that Congressman Carter has introduced this bill. Please contact your congressman about HR 4267
 

NEW SCANDALS - Congressman Charles Rangel has finally stepped down as chairman of the powerful Ways and Means committee. He is involved in numerous scandals including failing to report income tax on property in Jamaica. Another Democrat House member, Eric Massa, has resigned rather than face further investigation over improper sexual conduct toward a male staff member. In 2004 the Republicans lost control of the House largely because of scandals. Democrats now face a duel problem: numerous scandals including those of the governors of New York and Illinois, plus the unpopularity of President Obama's far left agenda including nationalization of health care.
AWAY FROM CAPITOL HILL - I am currently in Naples, Florida at a meeting of the Council on National Policy and as a result do not have my usual Washington sources. While here, I have met with Senator Jim DeMint and Senate candidate Marco Rubio among others. I have attended various briefings that will assist me in my work on Capitol Hill. Next week's update will be expanded to include inside information on the current scandals on Capitol Hill.

OUR MIDDLE EAST PROJECTS - I have received numerous e-mails from individuals asking why I do not post information in these updates on certain of the projects of the Religious Freedom Coalition in the Middle East. The answer: I post as much as I can. I can't post photos that show locations of the faces of individuals. I can't post comments that would allow Muslims to learn the location of food distribution centers or education centers. To post material the way it is done by some organizations for work in places like Haiti, for example, would cause attacks on the facilities and perhaps even lead to the deaths of individuals. I can only post on the Internet what I feel will not endanger others.
