Printer-friendly versionParents' Rights Constitutional Amendment vs. U.N.'s Convention of "Rights" of the Child
Incredibly, the United Nations, instead of trying to broker peace agreements amongst the world's warring nations -- or dismantling the nuclear weapons programs of rogue nations such as Iran and North Korea -- is meddling once again in the affairs of the nuclear family and the Obama administration is trying to give them an assist.
Pro-family forces in America are fighting back. There is now a bill, authored by Congressman Pete Hoekstra, Republican from Michigan and co-sponsored by the Republican leader of the United States House of Representatives, John Boehner from Ohio, which will establish a Parents' Rights Constitutional Amendment (H. J. Res. 42.) The entire leadership of the Republicans in the House of Representatives are also co-sponsors. It now has 100 co-sponsors and gaining more every day as Members of the House find out about this commonsense pro-family legislation.
Leader Boehner's office reported that: "Recently the Administration has indicated that it would like the Senate to ratify the U.N. Convention on the Rights of the Child. In light of increasing government expansion into the private sector and individuals' lives - the desire to cede parents' rights to raise and nurture their children to an international panel in Geneva should not come as surprise...

Koh will undermine American sovereignty
Many of the cast of characters selected by Barack Obama to be members of his administration come from the extreme left-wing fringe of the Democrat Party. Obama's selection of Harold Koh to be his State Department's Legal Advisor best exemplifies this fact. Koh is a disciple of a radical belief called "transnationalism."
Transnationalists, such as Harold Koh, believe that Americans should be governed by foreign laws and the viewpoints of international organizations such as the United Nations. Indeed, former Supreme Court justice Sandra Day O'Connor actually referred to international law when making some of her decisions on cases before the Supreme Court. Others on the court believe likewise and so does Obama's first nominee to the Supreme Court, Sonia Sotomayor.
Harold Koh is so radical that he referred to America as being a part of the "axis of disobedience" because we do not kow-tow to foreign laws which he and his fellow left-wing ideologues advocate for this country. Obama's nominee to the State Department actually put us in this category with the likes of North Korea, Iran and Saddam Hussein's Iraq... (Read More)

Time for the GOP to adopt the "Schumer Doctrine" on judges
It seems that every time we have a contentious judicial nomination process, especially for the Supreme Court, a great fuss is made over not asking certain questions. More to the point, we're told that nominees should not answer questions that could disclose how they may rule on certain issues in the future.
Hogwash.
The problem with this notion is that the federal judiciary has grown ever more powerful over the years versus our other branches of government. Further, the Supreme Court is held to be the final arbiter of what the Constitution actually "means" at any given point in time - information that's surely useful to the people that document is meant to govern...

Join the campaign to save talk radio
Now that liberals have solidified their control over Congress and won the White House they're threatening to use their new political muscle to shut down talk radio as we know it!
They want to re-implement what is known as the "Fairness Doctrine", which is nothing more than a way for the federal government to demand that all broadcasters must give "equal time" to all points of view.
Their real target is talk radio - the one place in all of media where conservatives outnumber liberals. The place where many conservatives go to avoid the liberal bias in the mainstream media and find out what liberals are really up to.
They know that conservative talk radio is one of the biggest obstacles standing between them and being able to implement the rest of their radical liberal agenda. And they want to destroy it!
Americans must let Congress know loud and clear that they DO NOT want our airwaves censored for political content!

Take our American Values Survey - then pass it on
Given the changes in Washington, it is urgent that political leaders understand that America's Christian voters expect strong moral leadership in government. Leadership that respects and reflects our values - not attacks them at every opportunity.

We're surveying hundreds of thousands of conservative Christians nationwide, and we want to make sure your voice is included... (Read More)
