Barack Obama’s administration has just released a statement stating that any American soldier who openly professes his Christianity can now be subject of a court-martial and may even face imprisonment and a dishonorable discharge. That apparently also applies to military chaplains in in the military.

That statement was released to Fox News on the 6th of May:

Religious proselytization is not permitted within the Department of Defense… Court martials and non-judicial punishments are decided on a case-by-case basis.

Clearly, all this either stands or falls or what exactly is meant by “proselytization.” The Obama government realizes this. There has been specific talk about proselytization in terms of “coercion and the abuses of power to force religion on others”. Nevertheless, I doubt that this is really about literal coercion or abuses of power because American Muslims, both inside the army and activists on the outside, have been agitating for this policy.

In other words, any talk of Christianity, any wearing of crucifixes in public, or even the holding of a Bible, will have been — and has been — deemed “coercion and an abuse of power” by Muslims both within the Army and outside. In fact, Muslims in Muslim/Islamic countries believe that any outward showing of Christianity, from the wearing of crucifixes to the very existence of churches, constitutes the “abuse” of Islam (or Muslims).

Today’s story is mainly directed at those of you who follow the Christian faith, no matter what denomination you choose however; that doesn’t mean that those who do not, will not enjoy the piece. First of all I want to make it clear that I have led a pretty rough life, I am far from being a pious man and I am certainly not qualified to preach to anyone, so instead, I am just going to share some of my thoughts with you. We all have the right to do that and you can take them however you wish. To make my point, I am going to have to share an old story that my father once told me, most of you have probably heard it before, but hopefully you will enjoy my telling.

There once was a very religious man, he was at church every time the doors were open and participated in every activity. He prayed every day and worked hard to live a Christian life.

The man lived very close to a large river and suddenly one day, he saw that a storm was approaching. He watched the TV news which told him that there was surely to be flooding in his area and to evacuate immediately. The man prayed to God to protect him but stayed in his home with his family. The next day, his neighbor knocked on his door, when the man answered, the neighbor said they were leaving the area and he should do the same. The man replied “No, I have prayed to God and he will protect me and deliver me from this flood.” The neighbor quickly left.

Well sure enough, the flooding began and the road was soon under water. As the man sat on his porch watching, a boat came down the road, the man in the boat urged our Christian friend to get his family and come with him, he got the same reply “No, I have prayed to God and he will protect me and deliver me from this flood.” So the man in the boat moved on.

Soon, the entire first floor of the mans house was underwater. As he watched from a second story window, two men in a larger boat pulled up and urged the man to get his family and come with them, again, they got the same reply “No, I have prayed to God and he will protect me and deliver me from this flood.” So the two men moved on to save other people.

Eventually, the only part of the house that was not under water was the roof, so the man gathered his family there. It was not long before a helicopter came along and saw them, they helicopter hovered above them and dropped a rope ladder. Through a loud speaker, the pilot urged the man to come with them; they would take them to safety. The man looked up and yelled the same reply “No, I have prayed to God and he will protect me and deliver me from this flood.” So the helicopter moved on to save others.

Tragically, the waters soon overtook the entire house, washed the man and his family away and drowned them all.

As the man faced God, he asked…”Why Lord did you let this terrible thing happen to me? Why did you allow this to happen to my family? I have been a good loyal Christian have I not? How could you do this to my children?

God shuffled his feet and looked back at the man and gave this reply.

“Yes you have been a good man and a good Christian, so I gave you warning that the flood was coming, yet you did nothing. You prayed for help so I sent you a boat, yet you did nothing. You continued to pray so I sent you a second boat, yet you did nothing. At the last moments I even sent you a helicopter, yet you did nothing. What exactly were you expecting of me?”

Now think of this in today’s terms and you were the victim of one of the terrorist bombings, one we have already had or one of the many that are coming. Perhaps even your children will be victims. I wonder what Gods reply will be when you face him and ask how he could let this happen.

Maybe it will go something like this:

I put you in a land where you were free to worship me in any fashion you chose, but you did nothing and allowed those rights to be taken away. I gave you the right to speak freely and keep my word alive but you were afraid to offend others so you did nothing. I gave you the rights and means to arm yourself and fight to keep my kingdom on earth alive, but you were afraid and did nothing. You sat back and allowed that kingdom to be destroyed so why would I allow you into my kingdom in Heaven? As I said earlier, I am far from being qualified to speak for God, or to even know if this would be his reaction, but I do think about it enough to know that I am not willing to take a chance on it.

I plan on making sure that I do everything I can to keep myself from having to answer this question. I believe that I would much rather be faced with having to answer for having taken the lives of those who strive to destroy the kingdom on earth.

What would you rather answer for?

Gods answer to what you are praying for could be you. This could be our very purpose for being here, now, during these times. Will you pray and act, or will you pray and do nothing?

I don’t think I have to tell what my answer is to that question.

The last showing of The Longest Day ended at the Paramount Theater before midnight. After the lights had dimmed and the patrons filed out, their minds still filled with the sights and sounds of soldiers fighting and dying at Normandy, the eighteen-year-old girl who had stood behind the concessions counter handing them popcorn and sodas went home.

It was late at night when she began walking home from the bus stop, but crime rates in Phoenix, Arizona were only beginning the upward rise that would take hold in the seventies.

In 1963, the year that Lois Ann Jameson was walking home, there had been 222 rapes. Ten years later, that number would stand at 637. Today there are over 2,000 rapes a year in Phoenix; ten times as many. But one of those rapes would be hers. And it would lead to a new standard of protection for murderers and rapists.

Ernesto Miranda wasn’t famous yet. The days when he would be selling autographed Miranda warning cards were still ahead of him. For now he was only another son of Mexican immigrants, a tattooed felon working temporary jobs and a rapist on the prowl.

Miranda abducted the girl, drove her out to the desert and raped her. He was arrested, questioned and confessed to the crime. The rest should have been straightforward except that no one had told him that he was entitled to a lawyer. The head of the Phoenix office of the ACLU stepped in and the Miranda warning was born.

Miranda v. Arizona was part of a string of decisions by the Warren Court that had begun the year of Lois Ann Jameson’s rape. The decisions invented rights which not only obligated taxpayers to provide accused criminals with lawyers, but also made it impossible to question a suspect without his lawyer.

In the case of Lois Ann’s rapist, Justice Earl Warren, who proved to be a bigger threat to the Constitution than King George III, went beyond inventing the right to a government lawyer, to invent the rapist’s right to be told of a right to a government lawyer.

Warren inverted the Fifth Amendment to claim that the confession of a criminal who had not been told that he did not have to incriminate himself was a violation of the ban on self-incrimination. And he held that it should be assumed that all criminals did not know that they did not have to confess.

Fifty years after a concession stand girl was raped by a career criminal in the desert, terrorist bombs went off at the Boston Marathon. One of the perpetrators, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, lay in his hospital room telling investigators bits and pieces about the attack.

Dzhokhar’s older brother and mother had been on a terrorist watch list, the two brothers had reportedly been planning a second wave of attacks in New York City and the FBI had not ruled out the possibility of a third bomber due to the difficulty involved in detonating the bombs without a clear line of sight.

Even though Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was in no shape for a court appearance and investigators still wanted to continue questioning him under the public safety exemption of New York v. Quarles, a Federal judge barged into the hospital room to present the charges against him and read him his rights.

There was no urgent need for a US attorney and a federal judge to rouse a terrorist listed in severe condition and read him rights. Judge Marianne Bowler’s appearance in the hospital was a calculated attempt at aborting the investigation…continue reading at FrontPageMag

A study in contrasts

By FRED BARNES

Bush and Obama in Dallas, April 25, 2013
Newscom

President Obama is not known for his graciousness. But the occasion—the dedication of the George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum—called for kind words about his predecessor in the White House. So he said that if immigration reform passes Congress this year, “it will be in large part thanks to all the hard work of the president, George W. Bush.” Bush had “restarted” the drive to overhaul our immigration system seven years ago, Obama said.

Bush, always gracious, thanked Obama and wife Michelle for coming to the ceremony. “Unlike the other presidents here”—Jimmy Carter, George H. W. Bush, Bill Clinton—“he’s actually got a job.”

It was a pleasant interlude, nothing more, for the presidencies of Bush and Obama are quite different, as are the two men. True, Obama has adopted Bush’s policies on wiretaps, military detention of terrorists without trial, drone strikes, immigration, middle-class tax cuts, and a global war on AIDS. But the fact that Obama seldom acknowledges his reliance on Bush magnified his tribute to his predecessor’s role on immigration reform as a rare expression of gratitude by Obama.

A friend of mine has a test for leadership: Winners take responsibility, losers make excuses. Obama isn’t a loser, but he is a fountain of excuses. And this touches on a striking contrast between him and Bush. Obama blames Bush for much that’s gone wrong during Obama’s White House years. Despite press baiting, Bush has refused to criticize Obama on any matter.

One can imagine the self-discipline required to stay silent when Obama claims to have single-handedly prevented another Great Depression. In truth, the bank bailout during the final weeks of the Bush presidency foreclosed the possibility of a depression. All Obama had to deal with was a deep recession, which bottomed out five months after he took office and before his policies could have much effect…continue reading at the Weekly Standard

An interesting juxtaposition exists between April 29, 1909 and April 29, 2009 in the realm of budget history. On April 29, 1909, the world’s biggest Superpower, Great Britain, introduced the “People’s Budget”, which is famously noted for being the first budget in the history of Britain with the “expressed intent of redistributing wealth” among the British people. On April 29, 2009, the world’s biggest Superpower, the United States, passed its last operating budget, the first budget in the history of the United States with the expressed intent to run a trillion dollar deficit.

It took both a year and the threat of adding additional Liberal “peers” (seats) in Parliament by the British King to garner enough votes in Britain to actually pass the People’s Budget. This ultimately succeeded exactly a year later on April 29, 2010. Winston Churchill’s biographer, observed that this budget, which Churchill supported, was a “revolutionary concept”.

On the other hand, April 29, 2013 marks the fourth consecutive year of operating on trillion dollar deficits, while failing to pass a new budget for the people of the United States.

Of course, there have been budget attempts. President Obama submitted a budget late to Congress every year except for 2010. His last two budgets have been so outrageous, (so revolutionary?) that not even one Democrat either year would sponsor or vote for his budget proposals.

In 2010, the Democrat-led Senate choose not to offer their budget plan on the Senate floor. The GOP-led House of Republicans pass a budget for $1.2 trillion.

In 2011, the GOP-lead House passes a budget for FY2012, cutting $6 trillion in comparison to Obama’s budget, which fails 0-97 in the Senate. The Senate did not offer their own budget that year. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said that would be “foolish”, while Senator Schumer remarked ““To put other budgets out there is not the point.”

In 2012, the GOP-lead House passes a budget for FY2013, while Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid announces in February that the Senate would not consider a budget yet again. The House this time votes on President Obama’s $3.2 trillion budget, which fails 0-414.

In 2013, both the GOP-lead House and the Democrat- led Senate pass their own budgets for FY2014 — the first for the Democrats in four years. President Obama presents his budget 2 months late, totaling $46.5 trillion over the next 10 years without ever balancing. It is also noted for even more taxes on the wealthy to pay for more social programs, a generous helping of “wealth redistribution”. But nothing has been agreed upon by Congress.

So here we are, coming round to 4 years without an operating budget for our nation. We also now have yearly, trillion dollar deficits on top of the additional, higher taxes.  Many will likely observe that — to borrow from their British counterparts a century ago — this modus operandi for the United States is also a “revolutionary concept”.
