A View from the Right Science, POLITICS, & Religion

The other day, I was in a brief online exchange with a Facebook friend, Eriku, that I thought y’all might find interesting. A fellow conservative and Newt supporter, Eriku is convinced that President Obama simply can’t win another term. He is very astute (at least, that’s what he keeps telling me (heh!)) and he was […]

Today, we learned that Barack Obama met again with Benjamin Netanyahu, where the President assured the Israeli Prime Minister that the U.S. has Israel’s back, should they decide they need to launch a preemptive strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities (though urging him to resist doing so). It’s quite a turnaround from Obama’s previous statements and […]

“There is no judicial supremacy. It does not exist in the American Constitution. Let me be clear: Judicial supremacy is factually wrong; it is morally wrong; and it is an affront to the American system of self-government.” Late last year, Newt Gingrich spoke at the Value Voters Summit, where he addressed the problem of judicial […]

“President Obama has taken us from $1.89 to the most expensive gasoline, on average, that we’ve ever had. They’re still not satisfied.” Today’s video is an address Newt gave earlier this month about “unleashing the American people” and taking advantage of the incredible natural resources we have in this country — both on land and […]

“We intend to change Washington — not accommodate it!” In my efforts this week to get Newt’s ideas & values in front of more people, I have posted here his speech to the Conservative Political Action Conference a few weeks ago. (Fyi, not surprisingly, there is some overlap with the “21st Century Contract with America” […]

“An adult document for adults.” Today’s video has the former Speaker of the House speaking in Des Moines, Iowa, where he introduced his current campaign platform — an updated version of the “Contract with America”. (The original was put together by Larry Hunter, Dick Armey, Gingrich, and a few others back in 1994.) I’ve heard […]

More people NEED to hear Newt Gingrich talk about his ideas and his vision for the nation. As great as he (usually) is in debates, he has to share the stage with the other candidates; plus, the debate schedule has slowed down. I find his solo talks educational and inspiring, filled with historical examples and […]

Let’s get right to it… In previous posts, I’ve explained how all evidence indicates that, when a human male and female conceive, the unborn zygote/blastocyst/embryo/fetus is not only a living, individual entity distinct from the woman — either biological mother or gestational surrogate — carrying it, but a fully human one, at that. (The same […]

“I am pro-life. I believe that abortion is the wrong choice except in cases of incest, rape, and to save the life of the mother.”    — Mitt Romney, in an op-ed piece in The Boston Globe (7/26/2005) In “The Pro-Life Position: Just One Question”, I argued that if the unborn is indeed a member […]

I wanted to post something before I go out of town for a few days. Not having time or desire to delve deeply into any one thing, I was hoping to still come up with something timely & interesting. (Note: I’ve got a couple more installments of “The Pro-Life Position” in the queue, but they […]
