Christian Conservative Voices For America

America has been God's gift of freedom to the world because our government was founded on Judeo-Christian principals and the freedom of religious expression. No citizen, of any faith, should be misled by the "separation of church and state" red herring. Constitutionally, it is an utterly fallacious argument, perpetuated by the ACLU in their drive to eradicate any mention of God in public life and to stifle freedom of speech.

We intend to make RadiantCross.org a strong Christian conservative political presence on the internet, confronting the obscenity ridden Move On, Huffington Post and KOS style websites of the distant left on the most important issues facing our nation.

America has drifted into an economic, political, moral and spiritual decline, which has brought us to a critical turning point. And the tide cannot be turned without strong, united, Christian and conservative voices committed to promoting, and raising money for, issues and candidates that reflect the true economic, social and Christian values of our founding fathers.

"If not us, who? If not now, when?"- President Ronald Regan


 

 

 

 

 

Pro-life sentiment continues to build in America and feminists are fraying at the edges. Here Jehmu Greene, president of Women's Media Center, justifies, in rather unlady like fashion let's just say, WMC's tactics in suppressing Focus On The Family's "Celebrate Family, Celebrate Life campaign.

Jim Bunning Exposes The PAYGO Farce

 

PAYGO is already gone. Acronym for pay-as-you-go, PAYGO was signed into law only last week. The bill theoretically requires congress to offset non-discretionary spending with corresponding spending cuts or tax increases. Triumvirs Obama, Reid and Pelosi ballyhooed the legislation as proof of their commitments to fiscal responsibility in government.

Anyone can get religion, but conversions of this magnitude are bound to overwhelm most people's credulity.

Only the most gullible churchgoer, Ned Flanders perhaps, would accept this pious renouncement of sin at face value. Everyone else had good cause to assume that PAYGO was simply the latest style over substance announcement by which the Obama administration still vainly hopes to fool a few of the people for a week or two.

It didn't even last that long. KY Senator Jim Bunning exposed PAYGO for the farce that it is in less than a week. Read Jim Bunning Exposes The PAYGO Farce

Doctor's Orders

 

 

Barack Obama became America's 44th president by managing to fool enough of the people for just enough time.  By January 2010 no one was fooled, but a lot of voters who placed their "hope" in candidate Obama found themselves feeling just plain foolish.

President Barack Obama, however, couldn't care less. And nowhere is this more evident than in the president's attempt to resuscitate Obamacare and unleash it's evils upon America.

Thursday's Healthcare Summit was nothing more than a half hearted attempt to pull the wool back down over the eyes of an angry electorate, or at least intimidate republicans into putting their fingerprints on legislation designed to give government control over the cost and quality of, and inevitably access to, medical care in America.

Both objectives flopped miserably. but that hardly mattered. When all was said and done, Barack Obama made it clear he was the doctor and America might as well get used to it.

The Commission Made Me Do It

 

“These are tough times and we can't keep spending like they're not..."

Is Barack Obama angling for a Nobel Prize for Bold Faced Effrontery? Or does our president simply believe that the IQ of the average Joe in America is somewhere in the range of his bumbling, well below average Joe? Either way, Mr Obama's creation of a "debt commission" is yet another example of his Audacity Of Arrogance.

The purpose of this commission is "to try to restore reason to the fiscal debate and come up with answers". For a full year now, Barack Obama has turned "tough times" into sheer misery with his self-styled "economic policies". Massive spending bills, massive budget proposals, government interventions into the private sector, attempts to implement crippling health care and and energy taxes. Policies which defied all reason.

But policies that have served the president's purposes quite nicely. The stage is now set for Phase II of Obamanomics. Massive tax increases, which will be recommended by Barack Obama's new National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform. Read The Commission Made Me Do It

Saving Lieutenant Behenna

 

America has lost 5,300 American men and women in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Tens of thousands have returned home permanently disabled. But the men and women of our Armed Forces have suffered another type of casualty, of almost equal gravity and rarely mentioned. The loss of support of their own commanders, beginning with Commanders And Chiefs George W Bush and Barack H Obama, on down.

And perhaps the most disgraceful examples of this abandoning of our troops are the many prosecutions of our own soldiers on charges of "war crimes". Almost all of these charges arose from situations where the soldiers faced split second, life or death decisions in the midst of combat. 

Most of these cases eventually resulted in dismissal or not guilty verdicts. But careers have been ruined, reputations destroyed and families bankrupted by legal fees.

The case of First Lieutenant Michael Behenna, however, has

gone one egregious step further. First Lieutenant Behenna has been unjustly convicted, in spite of substantial exonerating evidence, of "murdering" a known Al Qaeda terrorist in Iraq. Read Saving Lieutenant Behenna

Bully's Pulpit

 

President Theodore Roosevelt referred to the White House as a "bully pulpit". "Bully", during that era, was popularized by Roosevelt as an adjective meaning "great" or "superb". And all presidents since have understood how to utilize the prestige of the superb platform that is the White House.

It has become increasingly clear, however, that President Barack Obama seems to have misinterpreted the adjective "bully" for a noun. Indeed, Mr Obama seems quite confused lately on not only his adjectives and nouns, but also on the facts. It is almost as though the president really doesn't care what anyone thinks. Which was exactly the impression Mr Obama gave when he publicly ridiculed members of the US Supreme Court during his State Of The Union address.

 

Associate Justice Samuel Alito rightly took offense to the President's using the SOTU to grandstand to his anti-everything base. The justices, Mr Obama knew, would just have to sit and take it, no matter blatantly the president distorted the facts. Justice Alito could clearly be seen mouthing the word "untrue".

And those who might have taken the time to note the expression on Alito's face, as he looked up at the president, should also have picked up on the word "bully". The noun. Read Bully's Pulpit

Feminists Fraying At The Edges

 

 

Pro-life sentiment continues to build in America and feminists are fraying at the edges. Their spokespersons are becoming unglued. It wasn't supposed to be like this. Not with Barack Obama in the White House.
 

On the contrary, the majority of American's now label themselves as pro-life, state legislatures continue to pass those common sense/decency restrictions that provoke feminist ire and pro-life/pro-family positions are receiving major media exposure.

 

And feminism's last hope for a major expansion of abortion in America, under the guise of "healthcare benefits", appears to be headed down the drain with Obamacare.

The pressure of these set backs is bringing out feminism's true colors as they resort to their traditional fall back position. Suppression of the truth and free speech. Read Feminists Fraying At The Edges

Abortion Is Not A Poverty Issue

 

 

In this article of our series on Bringing Christians Home On Abortion we will address a common position taken by pro-choice Christian organizations. Their overwhelming concern for the poor is considered to be a far more important Christian issue than abortion.

The gospels do recount Jesus' love for the poor and His admonitions to His followers to care for the poor. And all Christian denominations work to support the poor and to address the root causes of poverty. But Our Lord was equally concerned for the dignity of the poor and, without doubt, the fate of their souls. As in "Man does not live by bread alone".

Many, very well intentioned, pro-choice Christians have let themselves be led astray by the political argument that abortion is somehow a poverty issue. This "abortion benefits the poor" argument is, however, one which degrades women and families in poverty in the ugliest manner possible. Read Abortion Is Not A Poverty Issue

Bringing Christians Home On Abortion

 

The spring 40 Days For Life Campaign begins on February 17. During last fall's campaign the lives of 571 babies were known to have been saved. With pro-life sentiment escalating in America, even happier results are expected from this spring's endeavor which will be conducted in 163 cities across America.

Undaunted by the opposition of the most pro-abortion administration in the history of Roe v Wade, the pro-life community continues to work tirelessly to the win the war against abortion One Baby At A Time. The percentage of children saved from the abortion mills each year, however, still remains small.

But the 2010 elections offer the opportunity to begin stemming the tide of abortion on demand in a truly significant way.

 

Hundreds of thousands of children can be saved in the coming years through the initiation of another type of national pro-life campaign. Read Bringing Christians Home On Abortion

State "Interposition" To Roe v Wade

 

"Judicial Activism" has evolved into a commonly accepted practice in America's federal courts. Many liberal judges clearly feel empowered to create constitutional rights based upon their particular views of society's needs and ills. And the beginning of this corruption of our judiciary can be directly traced back to the 1973 Roe v Wade Supreme Court decision which created a non-existent right to abortion in America.

To anyone with a true understanding of the principals of the founding fathers, Roe v Wade is clearly unconstitutional because it denies an entire group of citizens, America's most helpless citizens, the fundamental right to life. But considering the current composition of the Supreme Court, and the political climate in Washington, Roe v Wade will likely stand for the foreseeable future.

So other paths must be pursued in defending the rights of the unborn, and a new avenue of attack was suggested by Rabbi Yehuda Levin during the 2010 March For Life in January.

Pro-Life Super Bowl Showdown

 

Pro-life sentiment continues to mount in America and the struggle to protect the rights of the unborn will take another major step forward on Super Bowl Sunday. 2007 Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow and his mother Pam will be featured in a 30 second commercial titled "Celebrate Family, Celebrate Life".

Sponsored by Dr James Dobson's Focus On The Family, the Super Bowl spot will cover Pamela Tebow's courageous decision not to abort her child against the advice of physicians. The child, Tim, turns out to have been born quite healthy.

The Tebow family hopes that the recounting of Pamela's decision will inspire women facing a similar dilemma to choose life for their children. But that can only happen if the ad actually runs as scheduled. Read Super Bowl Showdown

Abortion Incorporated 2010


Though it might not seem so considering events in Washington, 2009 was a better year for the pro-life community than it was for Abortion Incorporated, the radical hardcore abortion lobby.

President Barack Obama, backed to the hilt by a progressive democratic leadership in congress, did everything his newly acquired power permitted in making good on his campaign commitments to the abortion industry that spent heavily to place him in the White House.

Yet for the first time in those 36 years a majority of Americans polled consider themselves to be pro-life. America is rethinking abortion and the struggle for the rights of America's unborn is being won in hearts and minds across the country. But Americans will not be allowed to "choose" life without a fight. Abortion Incorporated intends to confront that escalating pro-life sentiment with the full force of the federal government.
