Go into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. – Mark 16:15

Tomorrow bloggers will unite in a hurricane relief day to blog and give to the charities of their choice. I’m asking my readers to donate to the Salvation Army. As you may know, the Salvation Army began as — and in many ways still is — a Christian organization. Read more of the history.

You don’t have to wait until Thursday to begin donating. You can donate money online here or send to PO BOX 4857 JACKSON, MS 39296-4857. You can also give clothing, food, and your time. Most of all, hurricane victims need your prayers.

Impeach George Bush…

in Bush Bad, Illegal Aliens

Because it certainly isn’t “news” to people with IQs higher than 80.

Islamofascists have exploited our lax immigration laws. Oh, no! Whatever.

The report provides newly compiled data on U.S. terror arrests to illustrate gaps (GAPS?) in the nation’s border security, visa approval and immigration systems. It was written by Janice Kephart, who served as counsel to the 9/11 Commission that investigated missteps leading to the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.

“The attack of 9/11 was not an isolated instance of al-Qaida infiltration into the United States,” the 46-page report found.

“In fact, dozens of operatives both before and after 9/11 – other than the 9/11 hijackers – have managed to enter and embed themselves in the United States, actively carrying out plans to commit terrorist acts against U.S. interests or support designated foreign terrorist organizations,” the report concluded. “For each to do so, they needed the guise of legal immigration status to support them.”(Emphasis added) (Source)

Here’s one lie in the story: “Tightening U.S. borders has become a top priority for Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff, who last week called immigration enforcement an issue of utmost importance.”

THIS is a First Amendment Issue

There’s a ruckus brewing in Gainsville, Florida, and black journalists from Washington D.C. to Boston are weighing in about something that’s really none of their business. But how fun would life be if we couldn’t comment on what somebody else was doing and saying? Howard University journalism [...]
