THE PRESIDENCY
OBAMA ELECTION SHOCKER -
In the Kentucky Democratic primary, President Barack Obama lost a
majority of the counties. In Harlan County, in the heart of coal
country, Obama received just 26.2 percent of the vote. His opponent did
not have a name; the majority of counties voted for "uncommitted." With
help from the larger cites Obama did win the primary with 58 percent of
the vote; however, this was the third state in a row in which he
received less than 60 percent. In West Virginia a convicted felon still
in jail received 42 percent of the vote against Obama. The president
also received less than 60% in Arkansas. Does this matter? Read this.
Obama's weakness comes from more than his attacks on the coal industry
in these rural areas. His very public approval of sodomy is not welcome
in America's heartland.
OBAMA: MEN MUST BE ALLOWED IN WOMEN'S RESTROOM - The
Obama Department of Justice has ordered the University of Arkansas at
Ft. Smith to allow a male student to use women's bathrooms on campus.
Campus Reform reports that a male student who calls himself "Jennifer
Braly," and is in the process of raising money to pay for his
sex-reassignment surgery, filed a complaint with the Civil Rights
Division of the Department of Justice after the campus told him to use
gender-neutral bathrooms rather than women's restrooms. Read more
NEW AD POINTS TO MORE OBAMA VIOLATIONS OF RELIGIOUS FREEDOM -
The Religious Freedom Coalition has a continuing advertising campaign
designed to stop President Barack Obama's frequent attacks on religious
freedom. This weekend, an ad listing even more of Obama's egregious
insults to religious freedom was placed in the weekly edition of the New
York Times which is distributed in Washington, DC and mailed to all 50
states. See ad
CONGRESS
CONGRESS IN RECESS - The House and Senate are now in recess and will return May 31st. No votes will be taken on the 31st before 6:00 PM.
PROTECTING CHAPLAINS' RELIGIOUS FREEDOM - The
Obama Administration announced its opposition to an amendment included
in the House-passed version of the FY 2013 National Defense
Authorization Act (H.R. 4310) that provides specific conscience and
religious freedom protections for military chaplains and other service
members. The repeal of the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy in the
military last year raised concerns that service members whose religious
beliefs conflicted with homosexual behavior would face discrimination
and disapproval. If he cannot force Christian chaplains to approve of
homosexual behavior, Obama is willing to veto the entire military budget
bill.
RELIGION AND CULTURE
CHURCH LAWSUITS AGAINST CONTRACEPTIVE MANDATE -
Forty-three organizations have filed religious freedom lawsuits
opposing the HHS mandates. The University of Notre Dame, the
Archdiocese of Washington, Catholic Charities of D.C., and the Saint
Anne Home and Retirement Community are a few of the forty-three
organizations that filed lawsuits this week opposing the Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS) mandate that will force scores of
religious employers to provide health plans that cover services that
violate their religious beliefs.
THE REAL MANDATE ISSUE - The
Obama mandate on contraceptive coverage in insurance is not about
health care but the actual definition of religion. If the Obama
Administration wins, religion will be defined as something that is only
practiced inside a church on Sunday morning. Outside of the church
building, according to Obama, there is no religious freedom. All
religious organizations -- hospitals, soup kitchens, child care
facilities, or whatever -- must abide by all government directives, even
those that directly contradict the beliefs of the operators. The core
purpose of the Obama mandates is to destroy all religious adherence
outside of the church building itself.

FIND THE FRENCH FLAG - The
Socialist Party won the night and the new President of France is
Francois Hollande. The victors celebrated the night away waving flags of
the Ivory Coast, Morocco, Egypt, and the EU. Some are political party
flags and one says "vote left." Most of the flags are Palestinian,
indicating antisemitism, and the crowd is jubilant. Can you find the
only French flag in the photo? Large Photo Here
MORE "BLASPHEMY" ARRESTS IN PAKISTAN - Police
in Pakistan arrested a Christian, Sajid Inayat, and charged him with
"blasphemy" after he had an argument with some Muslims over a billiards
game in Punjab Province's Sheikhupura district. This adds one more to
the number of innocent Christians rotting in jail in Pakistan accused of
"blasphemy." Also this week there are no charges expected to be filed
in a home invasion in which five Christians, including children, had
their throats slit in the middle of the night by Muslims.
MORE PAKISTAN - Dr.
Shakil Afridi led Navy SEALS to bin Laden by setting up a fake
vaccination program that allowed him to take DNA samples from the
terrorist's children. He has been sentenced to 33 years in prison for
treason. Again ... the man who helped catch the terror mastermind was
sent to jail for treason against Pakistan. Meanwhile Pakistan is still
refusing to allow supplies to reach our troops in Afghanistan. According
to President Obama, this nation is an ally of the United States.
MODERATE MUSLIM INDONESIA -
No arrests have been made since 600 Islamists hurled bags filled with
urine and ditchwater at about 100 members of a church last week and
threatened to kill its pastor.
Police looked on as the mob attacked the Philadelphia Batak Christian
Protestant Church worshiping on the street in Bekasi, near Jakarta in
West Java Province, on Thursday (May 17), church attorney Saor Siagian
told Compass by phone. Read more
