Posted in Politics on July 21, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Recently Washington State passed SB 5688, legislation which redefines the word “marriage” as effectively having a legal meaning of anything the State calls a registered domestic partnership.
The ironic thing is that the text of the law itself actually affirms traditional marriage.
This is Section 3 of the bill, the first of many of nearly identical paragraphs being inserted [...]

The latest update on what the Obama Administration has planned for businesses:
Obama is calling for, “increased oversight of executive pay at all banks, Wall Street firms and possibly other companies…”
Marx’s class struggle at it’s purest. And effective government seizure of privately owned companies going on to boot. Not to mention plans for extensive use of the [...]

Not only have we threatened [...]
