Christmas IS Jesus
By Dr. Rick Scarborough December 18, 2009

Christmas is here, in all its beauty and warmth. It saddens me to think that if Barack Obama got his way, Jesus would not be recognized as the reason for the season.

Earlier this month, White House Social Secretary Desiree Rogers disclosed that the First Family was planning a “non-traditional Christmas,” this year that would include choosing not to display the traditional manger scene.

Thankfully, because of the outcry from the public the plan was abandoned.

At the National Tree Lighting Ceremony at the White House, Obama proclaimed that Christmas is no longer a religious holiday. Rather, it’s “a tradition that has come to represent more than one holiday or religion.”

The question we must ask ourselves is why are only Christians being asked to sacrifice our holiday on the altar of sensitivity and tolerance? Do Jews feel guilty about celebrating Hanukah? Do the Saudis proclaim that Ramadan is “a tradition that has come to represent more than any one holiday or religion”? Why isn’t Obama asking other religions to give up celebrating their holy days?

COPENHAGEN – HYPOCRISY, INTIMIDATION, COST AND PUBLIC OPINION
By Dr. Rick Scarborough December 09, 2009

With the Copenhagen Climate Change Summit about to begin, a few observations are in order:

  • Fewer and fewer people believe in the myth of manmade global warming. The latest Harris Poll – taken before the Climate-gate revelations – shows that now fewer than 51% of Americans believe in what its proponents insist is scientific fact – down from 75% in 2001 and 71% in 2007. Not that public opinion matters to elites. (Despite the continuing drop in support for Obama-care, Congress seems determined to force it on us.) (more…)

BEWARE OF COPENHAGEN – GLOBAL WARMING A PRETEXT FOR GLOBAL GOVERNMENT
By Dr. Rick Scarborough December 01, 2009

As time goes by, more and more doubt is cast on the theory of man-made global warming, which the left treats as incontrovertible fact. To date, more than 31,000 scientists have signed a petition declaring that there is no conclusive evidence that the earth is getting warmer due to CO2 emissions from automobiles and industry.

Recently, a hacker exposed a scheme by pro-global warming researchers to hide studies that contradict the theory. The Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia in the United Kingdom is one of the most influential climate-change crusaders. Its research regularly shows up in reports of the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

AMERICA TAKES ONE MORE STEP TOWARD SOCIALISM – SENATE VOTES TO BRING HEALTHCARE BILL UP FOR DEBATE
By Dr. Rick Scarborough November 24, 2009

Obama-Care passed another perilous milestone Saturday evening when — on a strictly partisan vote (without one Republican supporting the measure) — the Senate voted to bring H.R. 3590, the federal takeover of U.S. health care, to the floor for amendment and debate.

URGE SENATORS TO VOTE NO TO ANTI-JESUS JUDGE
By Dr. Rick Scarborough November 18, 2009

Yesterday, the Senate voted (70 to 29) to end a filibuster led by Sen. Jeff Sessions on the nomination of Judge David Hamilton to the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals.

After 30-hours of debate, a final vote is expected tomorrow. His nomination must be defeated. Hamilton would be an unmitigated disaster on the Circuit Court.

David Hamilton is a judicial activist par excellence. By nominating him, President Obama is fulfilling his campaign promise to pick judges on the basis of “empathy” for interest groups favored by the left, rather than experience, objectivity or commitment to the Constitution and rule of law.

WHEN YOU MAKE A DEAL WITH THE DEVIL, YOU ALWAYS LOSE – Ban On Abortion Funding Promotes Obama-Care

By Dr. Rick Scarborough November 12, 2009

I am pro-life by conviction. Anyone who knows me very well or has followed my ministry will verify that fact. In 2006, I helped to register and educate concerned Christians on a stem-cell initiative in Missouri and a ballot question banning most abortions in South Dakota.

Still, I must say, I’m dismayed by the success of the right-to-life movement in passing the Stupak Amendment, which gave pro-life Democrats cover to vote for nationalized health care, which in turn passed the House of Representatives by a 3-vote margin on Saturday evening.

ELECTION DAY 2009 – MANY THINGS TO CHEER ABOUT

By Dr. Rick Scarborough November 6, 2009

Hours after the polls closed in Virginia and New Jersey, the Democrats and their media allies began to spin the results furiously, in an effort at damage control. For the left, there was a lot of damage to be controlled as unapologetically social conservatives were swept into office.  Looks like the big tent theory, so often advanced by the left as they advise the right, is collapsing.  Tuesday was big for principled conservatives and should encourage us all!

LATEST VERSION OF OBAMA-CARE: MORE COSTLY, CONFUSING AND OMINOUS THAN EVER

By Dr. Rick Scarborough November 4, 2009

 My friends, we are in for the fight of our lives – and our lives may literally depend on the outcome. Late last week, with the President’s blessing, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi unveiled the latest legislative version of Mr. Obama’s plan to destroy U.S. health care – the ironically misnamed Affordable Health Care for America Act (HR 3962). In response to criticism that the last bill was too long (weighing in at just over 1,000 pages), Pelosi responded with a bill that totals 1,990 pages –considerably longer than “War and Peace.” (more…)

RON BLOOM—THE LATEST MAO-CRAZY OBAMA OFFICIAL

By Dr. Rick Scarborough October 23, 2009

First there was Interim White House Communications Director Anita Dunn, who, in a June commencement speech, called communist mass-murderer Mao Tes-Tung one of her “favorite political philosophers” and cited the blood-drenched tyrant as an example of successful decision-making.

Now, another tape has surfaced of an Obama official quoting Mao favorably, while ridiculing the free market. (more…)

A MASS MURDERER AND MOTHER TERESA

By Rick Scarborough

What sort of person cites a man who murdered millions in cold blood as an example of how to get things done? Answer: interim White House Communications Director Anita Dunn.

On his FOX News show, Glenn Beck played a video of a June speech in which Dunn cited Mao Tse Tung and Mother Teresa on the need to make choices. She described the monster and the symbol of compassion as “two of my favorite political philosophers.” That’s quite a pairing. Given Mother Teresa’s avowed Christianity, had she lived in China under Mao, she too would have been murdered by his odious regime. (more…)
