THE PRESIDENCY 

OBAMACARE SURVIVES AND THRIVES - To the shock and horror of conservatives and the Republican leaders, conservative Chief Justice John Roberts sided with liberals in support of ObamaCare. Even more surprising is that Roberts used a novel approach which gives the Congress the right to tax Americans for failure to purchase a product the government decides they should buy.

MY OP-ED ON THE THE OBAMACARE VICTORY - WND.com was the first news outlet to publish my editorial on the ObamaCare case. Rather than repeat criticisms of the Court decision done by others, I focused on the effect this will have on conservative election strategy, particularly in the light of the conservative Chief Justice handing Obama a victory. Read my editorial at WND.com.

CONGRESS 

CONGRESSMEN OBJECT TO AIR FORCE ATTACKS ON FAITH - Congressman Forbes joined Congresswoman Diane Black and Congressman Todd Akin in sending a letter signed by 66 Members of Congress urging Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta to investigate a pattern of hostility towards faith in the United States Air Force. Over the last year, the Air Force has repeatedly capitulated to pressure from outside groups to remove religious symbols and references to faith from the service. According to Congressman Forbes, "When viewed individually, any of these actions is concerning. But taken together, they highlight an alarming pattern in the Air Force that we do not see in the other branches of the military. Those who sacrifice so much for our nation must be assured that they need not leave their faith at home when they volunteer to serve." The letter calls on Secretary Panetta to issue clear Department of Defense policy guidance, consistent with our Constitution, to preserve the place of religious expression in the military at large. Read letter to Panetta
PRAYER CAUCUS DEFENDS LEGISLATIVE PRAYERS- Thirteen Members of the House of Representatives joined an amicus curiae brief to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit in support of legislative prayer. The Lakeland City Commission in Florida had a policy of inviting clergy to offer invocations at the beginning of its meetings. The Atheists of Florida sued, arguing that because most of the prayers were offered by Christian clergy, the prayers were "too sectarian" and thus violated the Establishment Clause. The brief submitted by the Members asserts that courts do not have the jurisdiction to delve into the inner workings of a deliberative body's meetings because of the constitutional separation of powers between the branches of government.

RELIGION AND CULTURE 

MUSLIM GRAFFITI AT WTC MEMORIAL - The NYPD Hate Crimes Task Force is investigating after the words "Allah Wakbar" were found written on a granite seat at the Sept. 11 memorial. A custodian found the graffiti, written in pink and black marker, on a seat in the plaza and investigators believe someone wrote the words that same day. The area is not in the view of any security cameras which means the Muslims who defaced the Memorial knew where to do so.

SUDAN: MORE CHURCHES DESTROYED - Authorities in Khartoum demolished two church buildings last week, days after confiscating three Catholic schools, sources told Compass. Officials from the Ministry of Planning and Housing of the local government authority on June 18 sent bulldozers that destroyed a church building belonging to the St. John Episcopal Church of Sudan, in the Haj Yousif area, an area source reported by email. A Catholic church building in the area was also demolished the same day. Read more
75% of PAKISTANIS HATE AMERICA - Three-in-four Pakistanis consider the United States an enemy country, a new survey conducted by the Washington-based Pew Global Attitudes Project indicates. The Pew survey, which was published on its website on Wednesday, said that last year 69 percent used to hate the US, but in 2012 the figure jumped to 74 percent. The survey also showed an exceptionally low regard for US President Barack Obama among Pakistanis. Read more

London has never been a particularly safe city except in tourist areas, but now gangs of Muslim men roam the streets raping non-Muslim women and beating homosexuals and other infidels. Stay away!

THE PRESIDENCY

OBAMA AND THE BOKO HARAM - After months of prodding by congressional leaders and groups such as the Religious Freedom Coalition, the Obama Administration has added leaders of the Boko Haram to a terror list, but not the organization itself. Obama' State Department still refuses to declare Boko Haram a Foreign Terror Organization (FTO), instead adding just three of its leaders, Abubakar Shekau, Abubakar Adam Kambar, and Khalid al-Barnawi to a list of known terrorists.

SPECIAL: Gay in the White House
GAY BASH AT WHITE HOUSE - Last Friday, a delegation of important gay people from Philadelphia made a trip to Washington D.C. as invited guests of President Barack Obama, for the first-ever gay pride reception at the White House. There, they danced to the sounds of a Marine Corps band; they dined on crab cakes and canapés; they hand-delivered letters from concerned citizens like this 18-year old who has had four people close to him gunned down, and they listened to noted rhyming raconteur CA Conrad. And some of them took advantage of photo opportunities to give the late President Ronald Reagan the middle finger. Read more

FORTNIGHT FOR FREEDOM - The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) recently called for a special "Fortnight for Freedom" from June 21-July 4 for people across the nation to become educated and engaged on the importance of defending our "first freedom." The event is a response to numerous threats to religious freedom, including the recent HHS mandate that will force scores of employers to provide health plans that violate their religious beliefs. Because religious freedom issues are essential to all, not just to one particular faith group, individuals of all faiths are being invited to join in this movement.

BOKO HARAM KILLS 80 MORE - After three more churches were attacked this past Sunday and 80 Christians in Northern Nigeria were killed, there was retaliation. Christians invaded Muslim areas taking revenge. This came after years of attacks in which thousands of Christians were killed, while the government forced Christians to just bury their dead and restrain themselves. Read more

THE PRESIDENCY
OBAMA'S GENERALS CELEBRATE GAY PRIDE MONTH - One day is set aside each year to honor those who died in the service or our nation, but Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta has set aside the entire month of June to celebrate acts of sodomy. Penetta declared June as "gay pride" month." In a video prepared for homosexuals in the military Panetta said, "Now you can be proud of serving your country, and be proud of who you are." John Paul Jones probably would have jumped ship had he known this was coming.

BARACK OBAMA AND ISAIAH - This past week President Obama visited Ground Zero and with a marker wrote on the wall of the new building: "We remember. We rebuild. We come back stronger!" Oddly this is eerily similar to Isaiah 9:10 (KJV) "The bricks are fallen down, but we will build with hewn stones: The sycamores are cut down, but we will change them into cedars." When Israel was attacked as a waning from God, rather than obey Him the leaders shouted that they would rebuild stronger. Obama says we will rebuild stronger, but with an army that allows sodomy. How does that work? Read more
OBAMA JOINED A SOCIALIST PARTY IN 1996 - During his run for the Illinois State Senate in 1996 Barak Obama addressed the New Party, a socialist party made up mostly of ACORN members. He spoke at a meeting of the New Party where he signed a "candidate contract" and joined as a member. Old internet documents from the party show him as a member, even reporting when he later failed to pay his dues. Read more

SENATORS SUPPORT DOMA - Senator Orrin Hatch (R-UT) today led a group of Senators who had supported the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) when it passed Congress in 1996, in filing a friend-of-the-court brief defending DOMA's constitutionality with the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. Joining Hatch are Sens. Saxby Chambliss (R-GA), Dan Coats (R-IN), Mike Crapo (R-ID), Charles Grassley (R-IA), Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Mitch McConnell (R-KY), Richard Shelby (R-AL.), and Roger Wicker (R-MS).

Current cosponsors include Rubio, Vitter, Manchin, Hutchison, Ayotte, Inhofe, DeMint, Landrieu, Blunt, Wicker, and Begich. Is your Senator listed here? If not please contact your Senator about the D-Day prayer bill
RELIGION AND CULTURE
KEEP THE POT, BUT HAND OVER THE POP CORN - Let's look inside the mind of a man who pays no attention to God at all, to see how this man thinks. Mayor Bloomberg of New York City has blocked the reconstruction of a church at Ground Zero while promoting the construction of a mega mosque. He wants to legalize "small amounts" of marijuana but outlaw "large portions" of popcorn at theaters. He also wants to limit the size of all soda drinks sold in New York to 16 onces (goodbye Big Gulp). Good comment on this issue here

DISNEY GAY DAY - Speaking of godless, on June 2nd Disney World held its annual sodomy day. (Advice: Don't let young boys go into the men's room during sodomy day at Disney unless accompanied by a family member.) The same week the Disney Corporation celebrated sodomy at its amusement parks, the company announced it would ban "junk food" ads from its children's TV shows. The Disney Corporation firmly believes that sodomy is good in kid's amusement parks but that Twinkies are bad for kids. A final question: Why do adult homosexuals want to go to Disney World anyway? Never mind, I know the answer to that question.

ARAB SPRING TUNISIA - Until 18 months ago Tunisia was considered to be the example of a "moderate" Islamic nation with tolerance for all. Then Baracck Obama and European leaders managed to back a revolt by Islamists against the secular government. Now Tunisia is a nation of strife and upheaval, with Islamist attacks on those who want to live a modern Western lifestyle. Read more

ARAB SPRING EGYPT - The Supreme Court of Egypt, which was appointed by the former secularist government, has dissolved the recently elected Parliament which was controlled by Islamists. Christians were encouraged and hopeful of the return of secularism. Islamists threaten to overthrow the military while calling the dissolved parliament a "coup." In reality Christians will suffer regardless, in a majority Islamic state.

ARAB SPRING LIBYA - Sidney newspaper headline: "Libya descends into militia chaos as hostages still held." there is not much in the news about the Libya that Barack Obama and EU leaders "liberated" but there is plenty of action there. The US Ambassador car was hit by an RPG, UN workers have been kidnapped and there is a full scale war going on in the south by different tribes. Yes ... This is what Barack Obama got a Noble Peace prize for at the beginning of his presidency.

FDR'S D-DAY PRAYER - Thursday, June 6th, marked the sixty-eighth anniversary of D-DAY, the invasion at Normandy. On June 6, 1944, President Franklin D. Roosevelt delivered a prayer for the nation. The House of Representatives recently passed the World War II Memorial Prayer Act (H.R. 2070), introduced by Prayer Caucus Member Rep. Bill Johnson, which directs the Secretary of the Interior to install a plaque or an inscription of the prayer in the area of the World War II Memorial in Washington, DC. Companion legislation has been introduced in the Senate (S.3078). President Roosevelt's prayer began:
"Almighty God: Our sons, pride of our Nation, this day have set upon a mighty endeavor, a struggle to preserve our Republic, our religion, and our civilization, and to set free a suffering humanity. Lead them straight and true; give strength to their arms, stoutness to their hearts, steadfastness in their faith." The contrast to Barack Obama is striking.Read full prayer here.

STOP CENSORSHIP DURING VETERAN BURIALS - On June 6th the House Veterans Affairs Subcommittee on Disability and Memorial Affairs held a hearing on H.R. 2720, introduced by Rep.

Culberson testified that he crafted the measure in response to religious censorship that occurred during veterans' burial services at the Houston National Cemetery in 2011. He said the measure would ensure an "absolute zone of privacy around every American that the government cannot penetrate-including the right to conduct a funeral in the way that you see fit between you and your God."

Report From Washington - June 1, 2012

OBAMA: gender selective abortions OK / Thousands of Muslims chant "Obama the Ape, we are all Osama" / Black pastors say same-sex marriage not a civil rights issue / No Sharia for Kansas and no straight sex for California / Learn more on Sharia law / More Muslim death threats against Geert Wilders / UK inmates forced to convert to Islam / New Islamic conquest of Egypt / Uncovered women spat upon

THE PRESIDENCY 

OBAMA: GENDER SELECTIVE ABORTIONS OK - Apparently President Barack Obama has never met an abortion he didn't like. Although virtually every European nation and Canada prohibit abortions done selectively by sex, Obama said he was against any law prohibiting abortions based on the sex of the child. With his support, Democrats defeated a bill in the House that would outlaw abortions for the purpose of sex selection. Undercover videos revealed, and Planned Parenthood confirmed, that it would abort children based on sex except in the four states where doing so is illegal. Read more

"OBAMA, OBAMA, WE ARE ALL OSAMA" - Thousands of Muslims gathered to address "Obama the ape" and chant support for Osama bin Laden. In our politically correct Western society, if an Arab Muslim calls a black man an ape, isn't it racist? No one in the liberal media, not even MSNBC has any problem with the constant racist comments from Islamic imams. Why is that? Read more and see video

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 past 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 

PRENDA VOTE - My good friend Congressman Trent Franks (R-AZ) introduced H.R. 3541, the Prenatal Nondiscrimination Act (PRENDA) after learning that Planned Parenthood would abort babies for the purpose of sex-selection. The bill was considered under suspension, requiring a two-thirds majority to pass. PRENDA failed to reach the two-thirds majority. The final vote of 246 to 168 was because of massive Democrat opposition. A total of 7 Republicans and 161 Democrats did not agree with most Americans, that abortions based on sex-selection are wrong.

NO SHARIA FOR KANSAS -A bill banning foreign laws, including Sharia Islamic law, from being used in Kansas to determine legal matters was signed by GOP Kansas Governor Sam Brownback recently.

NO STRAIGHT SEX FOR CALIFORNIA - The California Senate voted 23-13 in favor of a bill prohibiting counselors and therapists from telling young people it is possible to change same-sex attractions. The bill has sparked outrage from individuals who have overcome unwanted same-sex feelings sparked by childhood sexual abuse. It is also being opposed by Pacific Justice Institute, whose attorneys believe its blanket ban on certain types of counseling is unconstitutional. Read more

MORE DEATH THREATS FOR GEERT WILDERS - Police in Amsterdam have arrested the spokesperson of the Islamist group Sharia4Holland on charges of making death threats against the Dutch Freedom Party leader, Geert Wilders.

UK PRISON INMATES FORCED TO CONVERT TO ISLAM - Prisoners are under pressure to convert to an Islamic "gang" at a high-security jail, with non-Muslims in fear of violence just for cooking bacon, according to an official report. Muslim prisoners at the top security jail doubled in two years. Muslims represent around a third of all prisoners at Whitemoor Prison in Cambridgeshire. Prison guards said they had a policy of "appeasement" towards the powerful and growing Islamic population, particularly convicted terrorists who were feared to be recruiting future extremists.

Chairman's Report for June 1, 2012

THE PRESIDENCY
RELIGIOUS FREEDOM AD CAMPAIGN

The Religious Freedom Coalition’s advertising campaign warning of the Obama Administration’s threats to religious freedom began running on May 13th. The first newspaper to accept the ad was the Panama City News Herald. This newspaper is in the Panhandle of Florida, in an area that has a large military presence. Many of those living in the area fought for religious freedom in Iraq and Afghanistan, only to see Christians persecuted by the predominantly Muslim governments there.

The ad schedule moves south in Florida, around the Keys and then up the Atlantic Coast into North and South Carolina and then Virginia. We hope to be in Pennsylvania by July!

The ads will NOT appear in liberal big city newspapers. The purpose of the ads is not to fight with liberal editors, but to activate social conservatives to action to protect our precious religious liberty which is the foundation of all liberty. For that purpose the first national ad ran in the national edition of the Washington Times the week of May 21^st. (Ad is larger than shown here.)

One of our main goals is to encourage social conservatives to contact their congressmen and Senators to demand that Congress block President Barack Obama’s continued attacks on religious liberty with legislation such as that recently offered by Congressman Todd Akin (see below for details on Akin’s proposed legislation).

Another part of our agenda is to stop the flow of private U.S. dollars aiding Islamic terrorists who are killing Nigerian Christians.

The Religious Freedom Coalition wants activists to encourage Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to add the murderous Islamic Boko Haram to the State Department’s list of terrorist organizations. Christians are killed daily in Nigeria by the Boko Haram, while the Obama Administration allows this group to raise funds in the United States.

NOT AN ELECTION AD – Let me make it clear that our purpose is not to affect the outcome of the election. However, during an election year politicians listen. Now is the time that we can influence not only President Barack Obama but Governor Mitt Romney as well. Both of the presidential candidates have operatives who read everything in every newspaper to determine the “temperature” of the people. From the analysis of their advisers the candidates move from side to side changing policy to get elected.

If Barack Obama feels the heat, his Administration may back off its attacks on the Judeo-Christian heritage of our nation.

Although these ads mention Barack Obama and his attacks on religious freedom they send a message to Mitt Romney as well that social conservatives are not going to shut up, sit down and allow their beliefs to be sacrificed at the altar of the great god of secular government.

WHY THE ADS ARE WHERE THEY ARE

As you can see from the list at right, during May we ran eleven ads in eleven different Florida markets as our campaign began. The combined circulation of the newspapers we advertised in reached over 100,000 people for half the cost of one ad in the Tampa Tribune which has a circulation of 125,000. This does not count those reached by radio talk shows which featured segments about our ads.

Then there is the importance of the market, that is, the interests of those who live in these areas. We chose these newspapers because their readers are more socially conservative than those of the big city newspapers. We want to reach people who will pick up their phone and call congressmen. We want to reach concerned Americans who are fearful of the direction this nation is taking in policies toward the church, the traditional family and the core of religious liberty.

Florida is not our only goal! Our next targets are South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia and then Pennsylvania. If opportunities and funding become available the ads may appear elsewhere, as was the case in May when we were given an astonishingly low price to run a half page ad in the national edition of the Washington Times.

In addition to changing minds and hearts, we are recruiting more people to support the Religious Freedom Coalition’s efforts to protect religious liberty not only in the United States but for Christians in the Middle East as well.

CHAPLAINS MUST RECOGNIZE SAME- SEX MARRIAGE – President Obama has informed the Congress that he will veto the FY2013 National Defense Authorization Act because of an amendment added by Congressman Todd Akin (R-MO) that would allow military chaplains to refuse to participate in same-sex marriages. Obama said he would veto all funding for the military unless chaplains can be forced to violate their faith.

Rep. Todd Akin’s amendment to the FY2013 National Defense Authorization Act, Section 536 of H.R. 4310, states in part that no member of the armed forces may “direct, order, or require a chaplain to perform any duty, rite, ritual, ceremony, service, or function that is contrary to the conscience, moral principles, or religious beliefs of the chaplain, or contrary to the moral principles and religious beliefs of the endorsing faith group of the chaplain.” Barack Obama’s commitment to the homosexual activists who donate to his campaign is so great that he would endanger the entire nation in order to maintain the ability to order chaplains to participate in homosexual weddings — which, by the way, are illegal under federal law.

DOMA, the Defense of Marriage Act, is the law of the land. DOMA defines marriage as between one man and one woman and specifically states that the federal government will not recognize any other type of union. President Barack Obama, has ordered military personnel to arrange, permit and/or participate in same-sex marriages, even in states where same-sex marriage is constitutionally forbidden. As president, it is Barack Obama’s duty to uphold the law, not to order others to violate it. Once again Obama has our religious liberties under attack.

TAXPAYERS ARE PAYING FOR ABORTIONS – The Department of Homeland Security is paying all abortions performed on illegal aliens held in detention facilities. Congressmen Bill Huizenga and Dan Boren introduced H.R. 5646, the Homeland Security Respect for Life Act, which closes loopholes that allow taxpayer funds to be used for abortions for these illegal immigrants in detention. The bill mirrors language that is currently included in the annual Commerce, Justice, Science Appropriations bill which prohibits taxpayer funding of abortions for federal detainees, but not those under DHS jurisdiction. Please call your congressman about the Homeland Security Respect for Life Act.

BOKO HARAM LETTER TO CLINTON – The Religious Freedom Coalition continues to work to convince the State Department to add the Boko Haram to their official list of terrorist organizations. As mentioned in previous issues, Congressman Steve King, the chairman of the Homeland Security Committee, has made this request of Secretary Clinton. Congressman Trent Franks, who heads the International Religious Freedom Caucus, has lobbied the State Department as well. In addition, I have personally asked several Senators to write letters to Secretary Clinton to list the Boko Haram.

Why is this important? As of today, radical imams in the United States can actually raise money legally in their mosques for the Boko Haram and transfer those funds directly to these terrorists who literally kill Christians on a daily basis. If Clinton adds the Boko Haram to the State Department’s official list of terrorist groups, the Treasury Department must ban transfers of funds to them. Transfers of those funds then become a federal crime. Oddly Secretary Clinton has included on the terrorist list groups fighting for freedom and against the radical Islamic government of Iran – but she will not list Boko Haram, which has killed hundreds this year including in attacks on both Christmas Day and Easter against churches and church schools.

Is your congressman aware that the Boko Haram is not on the State Department list of terrorist organizations? Please call your congressman and ask.
