Bill Clinton

Pretending To Love Jason Collins

May 1, 2013 By Kevin Probst 5 Comments

I suppose Monday, April 29, 2013 will go down in history as a great day for America. Jason Collins (right in above picture) came out of the closet to announce to the world that he is a homosexual. He has been depicted as a “hero,” a “trailblazer,” and as “our Jackie Robinson”. Kobe Bryant was one of the first to congratulate Jason for his courage. Michelle Obama was quick to announce her support for Jason: ”So proud of you, Jason Collins! This is a huge step forward for our country. We’ve got your back!”

Bill Clinton couldn’t help but bloviate on the controversial topic, declaring that Collins’ announcement was “an important moment for professional sports and in the history of the LGBT community.” In case you may have forgotten, this is the same president who signed into law the Defense of Marriage Act in 1996 while he carried on a secret affair with Monica Lewinsky. It was also Bill Clinton who signed the Don’t Ask Don’t Tell policy, which stated that an openly gay, lesbian, or bisexual service member would of necessity be discharged from the military.

Chelsea Clinton, a former classmate of Collins at Stanford University, tweeted her support: ”I am very proud of my friend Jason Collins for having the strength & courage to be the first openly gay player in the NBA”. Chelsea claims credit for helping her father finally ‘evolve to the truth’ about homosexuality.

Unfortunately, Bill Clinton represents the culture of America. What was once condemned as wrong is now not only tolerated; it is enthusiastically accepted. It is now ‘cool’ to be gay. Were we wrong then and now we are right, or were we right then and now we are wrong? Human nature does not evolve toward the truth; rather, it leans toward sin. The Apostle Paul described his natural struggle with sin in his letter to the Romans. (Romans 7:23-25)

Not to be outdone by the Clintons, Barack Obama weighed in on the matter through White House Spokesman Jay Carney: ” We view that (Collins announcement) as another example of the progress that has been made and the evolution that has been taking place in this country and commend him for his courage and support him.” I am reminded of another call Obama made to Sandra Fluke to support her as she clamored for free contraceptives. I also remember a call to the Occupy group that camped out on Wall Street to encourage their rebellion. I remember a “beer summit” in support of Harvard Professor Henry Gates, who made unfounded accusations of racism against a Cambridge police officer.

Please wait while I pause….still pausing….thinking….trying to remember. I can’t remember any calls to injured American servicemen. I do remember a vague empty promise to get to the bottom of the Benghazi incident. It certainly seems that we have a president who is more than eager to lend his support to divisive issues but feels little motivation to create patriotism and loyalty to the country he serves.

I know I’m going to get slam-dunked for what I am about to write. It always happens when I express my opinion on this issue. I don’t know Jason Collins personally. It seems I would like him if I did know him. Are those supporters of Jason Collins really expressing love for a friend? Among those of us in Christian circles, we like to refer to it as ‘tough love’. It is the determination to defend truth, even in situations where it generates pain. Someone needs to tell Jason Collins the truth about homosexuality, not because they hate him but because they love him.

While nearly everyone will commend Collins for his courage to declare himself a homosexual, few will commend ESPN’s Chris Broussard for having the courage to tell the truth. Who is a real friend of Jason Collins? Is it Bill or Chelsea Clinton? Is it Barack or Michelle Obama? They are jumping on the bandwagon for political exposure. They are like parasites leaching off of every individual who has found their way into the national spotlight. Jason, your real friend is Chris Broussard.

The sports analyst expressed his opinion of ESPN’s “Outside the Lines”: “I’m a Christian. I don’t agree with homosexuality,” Broussard said. “I think it’s a sin, as I think all sex outside of marriage between a man and a woman is. If you’re openly living in unrepentant sin … that’s walking in open rebellion to God and to Jesus Christ,” he added.

(Please wait while I applaud….clapping hands…feeling proud…stilling applauding the courage of Chris Broussard.)

Earl Fowlkes is the president and CEO of the Center for Black Equity, a group that supports black individuals who are gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered. He made a ludicrous attempt to compare Jason Collins with Jackie Robinson: ”…he will be a little, miniature Jackie Robinson.” The attempt of the homosexuals to hijack the Civil Rights Movement is outrageous. Martin Luther King fought for rights that were being denied to those of a specific skin color. Our race is predetermined before birth.

There is no scientific evidence that people are born gay. Sexual orientation is not written in our DNA; it is more about how we define ourselves. Ironically, Jason Collins has a twin brother who revealed that he was shocked when he learned his brother was gay. With no evidence to support a genetic cause, we have descended to the level of granting rights for certain behaviors. As you can only imagine, opening this Pandora’s Box will only lead to more confusion and controversy.

Chris Broussard is the lone voice crying in the wilderness. Homosexual behavior is a sin that distresses the heart of a holy God. If a holy God is to remain holy, he must one day administer justice for the sin of homosexuality. Broussard added more truth to the issue. He declared that all sex outside of marriage is sinful in the eyes of God. As Christians, we love Jason Collins. We love him enough to tell him the truth. We have all sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. (Romans 3:23) Christians, to whom forgiveness has been granted through the Savior Jesus Christ, want to share this good news with whoever is willing to believe.

Local Setbacks Vex GOP Governors Eyeing 2016 Race

May 1, 2013 By Breaking News 1 Comment

WASHINGTON — Republican governors are often seen as innovative policymakers and potential presidential candidates, but a few are struggling with political or ethical problems that might crimp their ambitions.

Two governors eyeing possible White House bids — Bob McDonnell of Virginia and Bobby Jindal of Louisiana — suddenly find themselves fending off critics and trying to shore up legacies they hope will withstand national scrutiny. Other high-profile governors run the gamut from maintaining solid popularity to being in danger of losing re-election next year.

Governorships can be springboards to the White House, as Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and others have shown. But the high visibility also can lead to painful falls.

McDonnell, who built an image as a competent problem-solver, confronted questions Tuesday about an FBI inquiry into gifts he accepted from a wealthy Virginia businessman. And Jindal, even in a Republican-dominated state, had to pull back his ambitious plan to replace Louisiana’s corporate and personal income taxes with higher sales taxes. His popularity has sagged lately.

The 2016 presidential election is far away, of course, and the GOP has plenty of possible contenders. They include current and former governors, such as Chris Christie of New Jersey and Jeb Bush of Florida.

Barack Obama: George W. Bush Fan Or Foe?

April 27, 2013 By Peter Brown Leave a Comment

Prior to being elected President, Barack Obama came across as a real outsider hoping to bring change to a failing system personified in one man: then-President of the United States George W. Bush. Indeed, much of the criticism leveled against Bush was valid. He and the Congress had started long and costly wars in Afghanistan and Iraq at a time when America could ill afford to be spending such amounts, given the precarious state of its public finances. Bush had made compromises with treasured civil liberties by passing the invasive Patriot Act and indefinitely detaining suspects at Guantanamo Bay. Some of these suspects at Guantanamo Bay had been tortured by the American authorities. George W. Bush had been a combination of the worst traits of Republicans and Democrats; he had combined the aggressive militarism and nationalism of Republicans, hated by many people worldwide, with the free spending ways of the liberal Democrats, leading to the worst public finances this nation had ever seen (that is, before Barack Obama’s presidency). He gave Obama a mess that unfortunately has been further complicated by Obama instead of cleaned up. Indeed, while many admired George W. Bush’s personal decency, as far as policy was concerned, many began to see Bush’s policies for what they were: disasters.

Many of these things should be no mystery to anyone after Obama rightfully criticized Bush over and over again in the 2008 campaign. It has been noted by some writers that Obama’s policies have been very oddly a continuation of much of what Bush’s policies were while he was in office. Of course, there have been differences as one would hope to see between a “conservative” Republican and a far-left Democrat, but the similarities have been uncanny. Obama has continued Bush’s interventionist ways and has compiled a record of spending that matches his largess.

That is why it was no surprise to see Barack Obama get up and roundly praise the man whom he had routinely condemned to get elected. To see him chum around with the former Presidents both left and right showed what a sham his criticisms of Bush had been. Bush was transformed from the almost devilish figure he had been to Obama in his early days to a man of “compassion and generosity,” a real example (in Obama’s eyes) of what a leader should be. It is clear that Barack Obama has joined the “world’s most exclusive club” and has forgotten the very reasons why he wanted to be elected in the first place. It was also no surprise to see George W. Bush praised by Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton in addition to Obama. Maybe this “conservative” President, this “Reaganite,” is a little more to the left than we had assumed. Maybe our current President is a little more of an insider and a statist than he appeared to be in order to get elected to the world’s most powerful office. Food for thought, at least.

Video: Obama’s Watergate

April 16, 2013 By Kris Zane 20 Comments

The story of what happened in Benghazi on September 11, 2012 has been narrated by a schizophrenic.

Or so it seems.

On September 11, 2012, four Americans were murdered in Benghazi: Ambassador Chris Stevens, Communications Specialist Sean Smith, and former SEALS Ty Woods and Glen Doherty.

For weeks, the Obama administration blamed a “protest turned violent” over an amateurish anti-Muslim YouTube video.

Susan Rice hit the Sunday news show circuit with this story—five news shows in one day!

Hillary Clinton crooned for the State Department hit parade, even co-starring with Barry Obama in a $70,000 commercial apologizing to “our Muslim friends in Pakistan” who were rioting and tearing apart their countries because they hated America so much.

And our own rock star President took his “protest turned violent” road show to the United Nations, delivering a long-winded speech about how evil it was for an American citizen to exercise his right to free speech by making the “anti-Muslim” YouTube video.

And as a cherry on top, they imprisoned the producer of the video for so-called “probation violations.” Where the producer of the video—Nakoula Basseley Nakoula—now is, God only knows. Obama probably whisked him off to some rendition camp in Karachi.

Well, it turned out that it was a terrorist attack, except no one seemed to know who told Susan Rice, Hillary Clinton, and the President of the United States that it was caused by a YouTube video.

It turned out that Obama was informed that the al-Qaeda-linked group Ansar al-Sharia had claimed responsibility for the attack within two hours.

It turned out from a series of hacked emails from Bill Clinton crony Sidney Blumenthal to then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton that Ansar al-Sharia attacked the consulate and CIA annex in retaliation for the CIA’s involvement in the Libyan civil war—on Muammar Gaddafi’s side. We also know from a Blumenthal February 16, 2013 email that the attack on the consulate was funded by our so-called allies, the Saudis.

And it turned out that Benghazi was a hub for funneling weapons and cash to the al-Qaeda-linked Syrian rebels.

But this only scratched the surface. There was something much more nefarious going on in Benghazi—if that’s possible—and the Obama administration wanted to keep a tight lid on it.

What was the Obama administration doing in Benghazi that was so top secret, in which the thirty odd survivors have been kept under lock and key, prohibited from speaking to Congress or anyone else for that matter?

We know from the recently published book, Benghazi: The Definitive Report, that Obama’s chief counter terrorism officer at the time, John Brennan—now CIA chief—had been secretly involved in the Libyan civil war. Through a secret black ops unit—operating not only outside the purview of Congress, but outside the purview of the Pentagon and the CIA—John Brennan, like an errant knight over his own fiefdom, conducted his secret war in Libya. And that was just one of the secret wars he was involved in. This while he was a lowly chief counter terrorism officer! Now that he’s CIA chief, it is hard to even imagine what this man, operating outside of the Constitution, is involved in!

Obama, like a fox guarding the hen house, promised the American people he’d get to the bottom of what happened in Benghazi and “bring the perpetrators to justice.” Not one single person has been “brought to justice.” And the result of his “investigation” was the so-called “Benghazi Accountability Report,” released on December 17, 2012, that didn’t actually find anyone accountable. The Report’s chief author was Islamic apologist Thomas Pickering, who is tied to the National Iranian American Council. He also hobnobs with leftist billionaire George Soros, sharing the Board of Directors table at the think tank International Crisis Group.

Congressman Frank R. Wolf is now calling for a real investigation—a “Watergate style” investigation, as outlined in House Resolution 36, sponsored by over fifty congressional members.

Further, on April 8, an open letter was sent to the House of Representatives, signed by seven hundred Special Ops veterans demanding House Resolution 36 be acted upon. The mother of Sean Smith, the communication officer murdered on September 11, has also supported the passage of House Resolution 36. They want answers: Why were no military assets sent to protect American lives? Why was the “stand down” order given? Why has Obama hidden the survivors? Why has Obama forbidden the survivors to speak to Congress? All in all, they are demanding that sixteen specific questions be answered—now, immediately.

Will the rogue Obama administration answer the questions, or will Obama and his cronies snub their noses at Congress and the public—again?

Will a Watergate-style series of hearings begin so America can finally find out what exactly the Obama administration was doing in Benghazi on September 11, 2012 that must be hidden at all costs?

Let us pull back the curtain and see what abomination Barack Hussein Obama was involved in.

Video: White House Civil War

April 13, 2013 By Kris Zane 3 Comments

What if the FBI was working against the President of United States?

What if it was the FBI, not a single agent as reported, but an agency-wide operation that was behind leaking information to the GOP establishment about David Petraeus’ affair with Paula Broadwell? What if it was part of an “October Surprise” to pile on top of the September 11 Benghazi consulate attack debacle in order to derail Obama’s chances of winning the 2012 election?

If a hacked email sent from Bill Clinton advisor Sidney Blumenthal to then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on November 12, 2012 is to be believed, that is exactly what happened. In an email released on April 5th entitled “Petraeus/October Surprise,” Blumenthal lays out the FBI plan and how Obama, the new “Teflon President,” came out of the debacle unscathed, while the GOP establishment crashed and burned. The FBI, hiding in the shadows, then successfully portrayed the operation as a single FBI “whistleblower,” instead of FBI head Robert Mueller spearheading the operation.

If true, America, there is a civil war going on within our own government.

Be afraid. Be very afraid.
