Bad news: Obama's pro-homosexual judge to get Senate floor vote

April 26, 2012 by Chaplain Gordon Klingenschmitt

New Petition! Demand the U.S. Senate OPPOSE and FILIBUSTER three bad judges nominated by President Obama, for their anti-Christian, pro-abortion, pro-homosexual rulings. Select, sign and we will fax all 100 Senators instantly (saving you time!)

Bad news: Obama’s pro-homosexual judge to get Senate floor vote

President Obama’s re-election campaign web-site just release his “Top 40 homosexual accomplishments” and boasted of being the most pro-homosexual President in history. Read Obama’s own list here. He lists two openly homosexual judges he got on the bench.

But Obama forgot all the other pro-homosexual judges he’s promoted, including Kagan and Sotomayor to the Supreme Court, and now, this week…

The Senate Judiciary Committee approved by voice vote Obama’s latest pro-homosexual judge, William J. Kayatta, for promotion to the federal bench. Only conservative Sens. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) and Mike Lee (R-UT) stood up and opposed Kayatta. But the good news is, a filibuster is still possible at the upcoming floor vote by 100 Senators.

William J Kayatta is an elitist who wants federal judges paid twice as much as U.S. Senators! The pro-homosexual Judge William J. Kayatta Jr. may soon be promoted to the First Circuit Court of Appeals, ruling over Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampsire, Rhode Island, and Puerto Rico.

Kayatta helped the ABA falsely claim Elena Kagan was “well-qualified” despite having no judicial experience. Sessions said one of the reasons he voted against Kayatta was because “Kayatta saw fit to give Kagen the highest rating despite her lack of substantial courtroom experience.”

Kayatta has displayed disrespect for the Constitution and favored activism from the bench throughout his career. He helped draft an argument to ban military recruiters from Harvard University because of his radical sexual view that the military was too anti-homosexual, and he advocated to bar all judicial elections because he prefers activism to public accountability. When Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) asked Kayatta whether “he supported the body of law that finds gun rights to be an individual right guaranteed by the Second Amendment,” Kayatta declined to discuss the issue because his own personal opinion conflicted with the Constitution. Kayatta will oppose the 2nd Amendment and gun rights for law-abiding citizens.

Unless WE act now and demand all members of the Senate stand up for the Constitution and vote NO or filibuster, Obama’s Kayatta will do real and permanent damage by misinterpreting the Constitution. We need 41 Republican Senators to FILIBUSTER so please call all 100 Senators today, or at least sign our petition and we will fax them automatically (saving you time!)

Please select here to sign urgent petition, and we will fax all 100 Senators (saving you time!) to OPPOSE and FILIBUSTER three bad judges to stop forcing their anti-Jesus, pro-abortion, pro-homosexual views on the American people.

Obama’s newest Judge: “American courts should be more like France, Italy.”

William Kayatta Jr. is known for his belief that judges’ pay should be doubled, more than Congressmen or Senators. He believes judges are the “the best of us, the brightest of us, the most fair and compassionate of us,” and raising their pay would make America “more like Europe.” Sadly, if American courts looked more like Europe, we would be ruled by elitists who create their own laws by activist judicial supremacy.

But a Quick look at some European legal systems reveals Kayatta’s ideal legal system:

1) Italian courts, according to Transparency International “was 63rd in its league table of integrity in public life, slipping eight places from the year before and coming second last in the Euro Zone and lower than Botswana and Namibia. According to Reuters “cases of corruption increased by 229 percent from 2008 to 2009,” in Italy.

2) French courts, according to The Economist, are “a clique of powerful men up to no good, linked by a potent mix of money, politics and business, and to close to the executive branch.” 72% of the French believe French courts are corrupt.

3) Spain placed just above Botswana on the corruption list but only by one point.

4) Greek courts placed 80th on the list.

Sadly, Obama’s Judge Kayatta who is “better than you” also believes Judges should never be elected, nor have to answer to the American people. He’s against Democracy. Most European courts (except the UK) don’t allow juries, rather Judges are lords and masters!

Now the shocker: Since 2008, when Obama’s judges began flooding U.S. courts, “The United States has dropped out of the ‘top 20’ in a global league table of least corrupt nations.”

Tarnished by financial scandals and the influence of money in politics, American courts are now ALREADY looking like Europe, falling to historic low scores on integrity vs. corruption.

Why should Obama’s Judge Kayatta be allowed to rule any American courtroom? Help stop him, by demanding 100 Senators unite to FILIBUSTER Kayatta’s nomination.

Please select here to sign urgent petition, and we will fax all 100 Senators (saving you time!) to OPPOSE and FILIBUSTER three bad judges to stop forcing their anti-Jesus, pro-abortion, pro-homosexual views on the American people.

Obama promotes pro-homose xual Judge who sought to double his own pay

Judge William J. Kayatta must be stopped. Please call your 2 Senators at 202-224-3121 to say “Oppose and filibuster 3 judges. Kayatta, Jesse Furman, and Michael Fitzgerald.”

JAG warns: “Kayatta takes the elitist view that Judges should be paid twice as much as U.S. Senators….Kayatta will not be satisfied with ‘just’ a: “100% raise from current compensation…” he wants more of our money for himself and his elitist friends. Kayatta…approved and edited the White Paper: “Judicial Compensation: Our Federal Judges Must Be Fairly Paid,” [which] report expresses the elitist view that judges should be paid more than Senators and Members of Congress because judges “are not supposed to be average.”…Kayatta also argues that judicial salaries must be doubled…

“Pursuant to Kayatta’s judicial philosophy, Judges may raise their own salaries by legislating from the bench. Kayatta wrote: “A case can be made that the Constitution requires a raise in judicial compensation to ameliorate the diminution which has occurred over time as the result of inflation.” [But he’s wrong, since] the Constitution prohibits judges from raising their own salaries…

“Kayatta was a member of the American Bar Association Standing Committee on the Federal Judiciary when that committee…rated Elena Kagan as ‘Well Qualified.’ Kayatta appeared before the Judiciary Committee to present the Kagan evaluation, and Senator Jeff Sessions took issue with Kayatta over that evaluation.”

“Sessions pointed out to Kayatta that…Kagan was grossly unqualified…”I found it difficult to understand how when she did not meet those qualifications that [Kayatta and] the Committee reached the highest rating for the highest court.”…

“Kayatta’s ABA Report Defends Kagan in Baring Military Recruiters from Harvard. Kayatta helped draft the ABA Report on Kagan that was submitted to the Senate. The report gratuitously raises and defends the issue of Kagan’s role in barring military recruiters from Harvard Law:

[Kayatta defended why] “Harvard Law School had a long-standing policy denying placement office services to any firm or organization that refused to hire students for reasons including known sexual orientation. [Kagan] enforced the policy…In other words…Dean Kagan demonstrated any type of bias that would cause us to question her integrity under our standards.”

[Kayatta complained about Christians who fired three activist pro-homosexual Iowa judges:] “In the wake of these developments, three Supreme Court justices in Iowa were ousted in 2010 after interest groups, most from out of state, spent nearly a million dollars to unseat them owing to the court’s unanimous ruling in a 2009 gay marriage case.”

[But JAG says Kayatta’s] “Paper does not address the fact that the Iowa judges’ ‘gay marriage’ case amounted to brazen judicial usurpation of legislative power. The voters properly exercised their legal ability to remove these errant judges. Without such remedies, the radical activism of judges – like the Iowa judges – would surely proliferate.”

BOTTOM LINE: Kayatta is clearly a pro-homosexual, activist judge who not only complains when Christian citizens vote-out activist judges, Kayatta wants to increase the power of activist judges to double their own salary and enforce pro-homosexual policies by legislating from the bench. KAYATTA MUST BE FILIBUSTERED!

Please select here to sign urgent petition, and we will fax all 100 Senators (saving you time!) to OPPOSE and FILIBUSTER three bad judges to stop forcing their anti-Jesus, pro-abortion, pro-homosexual views on the American people.

Stop Obama’s 3 Anti-Jesus, Pro-Abortion, Pro-Homose xual Judges. Take action!

The U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee is now debating whether to confirm three more left-wing judges nominated by President Obama, each of whom have a history of forcing anti-Christian, pro-abortion, or pro-homosexual views on the American people.

1) Our friends at the Judicial Action Group (JAG) warn: “Kayatta wants judges to have the power to increase their own pay – in fact he thinks the Constitution already gives them that authority….Kayatta was part of the wildly liberal American Bar Association panel who voiced approval for Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan’s nomination, even lobbying and testifying on her behalf. Now Obama is offering Kayatta a judgeship of his own.”

2) Activist Judge Jesse Furman once legislated from the bench to change the First Amendment to allow unprecedented erosion to freedom of religion and speech. Furman tried to ban a Christian organization from using public property. The Supreme Court emphatically shot him down, and not even the liberals on the bench supported him. The high court rebuked Furman’s idea that “to extend the school day for elementary school children by offering religious worship, instruction and indoctrination on public school grounds would result in an unprecedented erosion of Establishment Clause values that would reverberate well beyond this particular case.” Furman banned Christian kids!

Please select here to sign urgent petition, and we will fax all 100 Senators (saving you time!) to OPPOSE and FILIBUSTER three bad judges to stop forcing their anti-Jesus, pro-abortion, pro-homosexual views on the American people.

But the Supreme Court ruled kids are free to assemble for worship, firmly rebuking Furman’s anti-Jesus views. Furman had ruled that First Amendment Rights of free speech do not extend to Christians, “because they do not promote cohesion among heterogeneous democratic people.” He wrote in his official brief to the Supreme Court that all forms of traditional Christianity are intolerant because they label children as either unsaved or unsaved.

3) Nominee Micheal Fitzgerald is the fourth openly homosexual judicial nominee sent by Obama to a federal judgeship, after Ed DuMont, Paul Oetken, and Alison Nathan. Fitzgerald actively sought to ban members of military from Harvard University because of his radical support for homosexual military service. He helped lead the Harvard- Radcliffe Gay-Lesbian Caucus, an activist organization that fought to ban the military from Havard.

Fitzerald made phone calls and knocked on doors to personally help defeat Proposition 8 in 2008, actively trying to overturn the will of the California people who twice voted to define marriage as only valid between one man and one woman. Fitzgerald is or was also an active member of several radical leftist homosexual advocacy groups: Stonewall Democratic Club, Lesbian and Gay Lawyers Association of Los Angeles, Los Angeles Gay and Lesbian Center, and the “No on Proposition 8” campaign. He is a Homosexual activist and cannot be trusted to rule without bias on critical social issues,

Let’s take action to stop these three radical judges!

Please select here to sign urgent petition, and we will fax all 100 Senators (saving you time!) to OPPOSE and FILIBUSTER three bad judges to stop forcing their anti-Jesus, pro-abortion, pro-homosexual views on the American people.

Please call these 18 members of the Senate Judiciary Committee, at 202-224-3121.

Surprised? Romney Hires Openly 'Gay' Spokesman for Military

April 25, 2012 by Chaplain Gordon Klingenschmitt

Urgent Petition! Defend Military Chaplains. Demand Congress pass H.R. 3828 to protect chaplains religious freedom to oppose immorality, & troops’ conscience. Select here, sign petition, we will fax all 535 Congressmen (saving you time!)

Surprised? Romney Hires Openly ‘Gay’ Spokesman for Military

NOTE: **Set your alarm. If you’re awake at 6:20am EST Thursday, watch Dr. Chaps on “Fox & Friends” television, discussing the Air Force removal of Bibles from lodging rooms.

Surprise, surprise. (Don’t shoot the messenger, please.) Last week, just days after Rick Santorum quit the race, Mitt Romney hired openly homosexual “national security and foreign policy spokesman” from California, Richard Grenell to speak for the Romney campaign about military issues.

The Committee to Defend the Natural Family confirms what the Washington Post ignored:

“Grenell served through September 2008 in the Bush administration as a spokesman to the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations — and told The Advocate‘s Kerry Eleveld as he left the administration that it was his hope that New York would have marriage equality soon and that he would one day be able to marry his partner, Matt Lashey. The couple has been together 10 years. . . .

“Andrew Sullivan, who had endorsed Obama’s 2008 run, wrote of the news, ‘For Romney to have an openly gay spokesman is a real outreach to gay Republicans, a subtle signal to moderates, and the Santorum faction’s reaction will be worth noting.’

“Grenell is not just gay, but a gay activist who pushes for same-sex marriages,” says blogger Joel McDurmon.

[Dr. Chaps’ comment: No comment. I’m just reporting the news today. Don’t shoot me. But please let’s take a stand for our military, especially our chaplains, whose views will apparently not be represented by their new spokesman, should Romney be elected. We must energize Christian Republicans in the House to restore Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell. So please sign our petition and we will instantly fax all 535 Congressmen, saving you time!]

Please select here to sign urgent petition, and we will fax all 535 Congressmen and Senators (saving you time!) to PROTECT MILITARY CHAPLAINS AND TROOPS RELIGIOUS FREEDOM to oppose immorality, and co-sponsor and pass H.R. 3828.

2,000 Chaplains: Obama policy has “seeded hostility toward chaplains”

Our friends at the Traditional Values Coalition have sent an urgent warning about the Pentagon’s continued pressure against Christian Chaplains, to either endorse homosexual sin as normal or be silenced or punished.

“Right now, thousands of military chaplains are under threat from new regulations that prevent them from speaking out in any way against homosexuality and other sound Biblical teaching,” says TVC President Andrea Lafferty.

“Should our military chaplains be brave enough to preach or counsel one of our men and women in uniform contrary to the desires of the Defense Department, the new regulations repealing ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’ can ultimately ruin the careers of these military chaplains, up to and including dishonorable discharge — all because our chaplains refuse to compromise their consciences!

“So serious and dire is this threat that over 18 Christian denominations have reached out to Congress and urged them to reverse the Defense Department’s course. Some denominations such as the Catholic Military Archdiocese have threatened to remove all of their military chaplains, should Obama refuse to backtrack on his violations of our religious freedoms.”

TVC is not alone in their concern.

The Chaplain Alliance for Religious Liberty represents over 2,000 military chaplains, and recently wrote to the Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee:

“Unfortunately, recent changes in military and other policies have ushered into existence a seeded hostility toward chaplains that subscribe to longstanding, deeply-held tenets regarding marriage and sexual behavior. If this hostility toward the chaplaincy persists, and certain chaplains lose their endorsements because of their inability to teach and share with their fellow servants the full counsel of God, a constitutional crisis will emerge, as the military cannot function without the chaplaincy, much less a partial chaplaincy.”

Let’s take a stand for our chaplains’ freedom of speech, now threatened by the Obama Administration’s active policies of censorship and hatred of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Let’s petition Congress to pass this chaplain freedom bill…

Please select here to sign urgent petition, and we will fax all 535 Congressmen and Senators (saving you time!) to PROTECT MILITARY CHAPLAINS AND TROOPS RELIGIOUS FREEDOM to oppose immorality, and co-sponsor and pass H.R. 3828.

Chaplains risking “Treason” if they preach against Obama

My friend Chad Groening at OneNewsNow.com called me for an interview, and published an important article about President Obama’s persecution of military chaplains:

Chaplains risking ‘treason’ by Chad Groening – OneNewsNow

“A former Navy chaplain who was forced out of the service for praying publicly in Jesus’ name while in uniform says the Obama administration is clearly trying to censor military chaplains who dare to speak out against the pro-abortion and pro-homosexual agenda.

“The Obama White House opened a can of worms last week when it issued an edict requiring Catholic-affiliated agencies to provide medical coverage for employees’ contraceptives and abortions. The controversy moved to the military when Catholic Army chaplains were ordered not to read a letter telling parishioners that the Catholic Church ‘cannot and will not comply with this unjust law.’

“Gordon James Klingenschmitt, a former Navy chaplain who now runs The Pray In Jesus’ Name Project, further details how the mandate is affecting the military.

“‘The secretary of the Army said you have to line out some of the language, or else we’re going to charge the chaplains with sedition and treason for opposing the Obama administration,’ he reports. ‘Can you believe this? They are actually threatening chaplains with court-martial if they dare to preach against sin in their own church.’

“So Klingenschmitt is encouraging people of faith to contact their members of Congress and tell them to support the Military Religious Freedom Act (HR 3828) sponsored by Congressman Tim Huelskamp (R-Kansas), which would protect all members of the armed forces from having to compromise their religious and spiritual beliefs.

“Regarding the Catholic Church and contraceptives, President Obama announced on Friday that religious employers will not have to cover birth control for their employees. Instead, he said, insurance companies will be the ones responsible for providing free contraception. That supposed ‘compromise’ on the matter brought harsh criticism from conservatives across denominational and organizational lines.”

[Friends, we must take a stand to protect military chaplains First Amendment rights. Charges of ‘sedition’ and ‘treason’ if they preach against Obama, who must be stopped.]

Please select here to sign urgent petition, and we will fax all 535 Congressmen and Senators (saving you time!) to PROTECT MILITARY CHAPLAINS AND TROOPS RELIGIOUS FREEDOM to oppose immorality, and co-sponsor and pass H.R. 3828.

Obama threatens Chaplains: “You can’t preach against me in chapel.”

The Obama Administration has now directly threatened military chaplains with “sedition” or equivalent charges of “treason” if they dare to preach against Obama’s abortion policies during optional Sunday worship inside military chapels.

According to the Business Insider, an “emerging conflict between the Catholic Church and the Obama administration may have a new front: in the U.S. military itself.

“The Catholic Church is fighting mad about an HHS ruling that would have them buy insurance for things they consider sinful–contraception, sterilization and abortion.

“All the bishops in the country sent out a letter to be read in their parishes promising that the Church ‘cannot-and will not-comply with this unjust law.’

“Even Archbishop Timothy Broglio, who is in charge of Catholic military chaplains sent out the same letter.

“But after he did, the Army’s Office of the Chief of Chaplains sent out another communication forbidding Catholic priests to read the letter, in part because it seemed to encourage civil disobedience, and could be read as seditious against the Commander-in-Chief.

“More than one Catholic chaplain who spoke to us off the record confirmed that many chaplains disobeyed this instruction and read the letter anyway. [Risking treason charges.] Others sought further instructions from their Archbishop.

“Now after much behind-the-scenes bureaucratic wrangling, a new version of the letter will be read, one that was edited of the language about ‘unjust laws.’…

“A new statement issued this afternoon from Archbishop Broglio’s office acknowledged the interference this way:

“Archbishop Broglio and the Archdiocese stand firm in the belief, based on legal precedent, that such a directive from the Army constituted a violation of his Constitutionally-protected right of free speech and the free exercise of religion, as well as those same rights of all military chaplains and their congregants.

“Following a discussion between Archbishop Broglio and the Secretary of the Army, The Honorable John McHugh, it was agreed that it was a mistake to stop the reading of the Archbishop’s letter. Additionally, the line: ‘We cannot – we will not – comply with this unjust law’ was removed by Archbishop Broglio at the suggestion of Secretary McHugh over the concern that it could potentially be misunderstood as a call to civil disobedience. [The chaplains’ speech was censored by the Obama Administration.]

“It’s an issue that Catholic chaplains are taking very seriously in private.”

[Chaps Comment: It’s clear that OBAMA IS AFRAID OF CHURCH VOTE AWAKENING. Let’s take a stand for military chaplains rights, by petitioning Congress right now:

Please select here to sign urgent petition, and we will fax all 535 Congressmen and Senators (saving you time!) to PROTECT MILITARY CHAPLAINS AND TROOPS RELIGIOUS FREEDOM to oppose immorality, and co-sponsor and pass H.R. 3828.

Chaplains threatened, retaliated for Religious Views. Hero Congressman Steps Up.

It seems like common sense. Chaplains should be free to express their religious beliefs, and freely teach and counsel against immorality in our military. But after repeal of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell,” religious liberty of our military chaplains and troops is under attack.

Focus on the Family reports good news: “Late last week, Rep. Tim Huelskamp, R-Kan., introduced a bill aiming to protect chaplains and other members of the Armed Services who oppose homosexuality from being targeted for discrimination. It also seeks to keep military property from being used to perform same-sex ceremonies.

“In part, the Military Religious Freedom Protection Act (HR 3828) reads that ‘a service member cannot be denied promotion or other training opportunities for any sincerely held beliefs he has about the appropriate or inappropriate expression of human sexuality.’

“Though the First Amendment to the Constitution already protects those rights, Huelskamp said in a press release it’s necessary to shore them up with a law since the repeal of the military’s Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell (DADT) policy.

“Fundamental to the core of this nation is the protection of religious liberty,” Huelskamp said. “The Military Religious Freedom Protection Act will ensure that none of our men and women in uniform — including our chaplain corps — is asked to compromise their religious and spiritual beliefs. It will also protect the freedom of those in the military to express vocally the tenets of their faiths. And it will make certain that our military facilities are not used in contravention to the federal Defense of Marriage Act, which states that marriage is between one man and one woman only.

[CHAPS COMMENT: Military chapels in all 50 states must now be open to desecration.]

“Military installations exist to carry out the national defense of our nation, not to facilitate a narrow social agenda,” said Huelskamp.

“According to the Chaplain Alliance for Religious Liberty, the repeal immediately created a chilling effect on free speech among the troops and a ‘climate of fear’ for chaplains who didn’t know what their rights were in the new environment, especially when it came to addressing and speaking about homosexual behavior,” FOTF continued.

“In some cases, said Executive Director Ron Crews, chaplains “suffered retaliation, including having their careers threatened, for being ‘politically incorrect.'”

Let’s petition Congress to support this new bill…

Please select here to sign urgent petition, and we will fax all 535 Congressmen and Senators (saving you time!) to PROTECT MILITARY CHAPLAINS AND TROOPS RELIGIOUS FREEDOM to oppose immorality, and co-sponsor and pass H.R. 3828.

The National Organization of Marriage President Brian Brown wrote:

“In September, the Department of Defense issued two more memos, requiring all military facilities to be available for same-sex weddings and allowing chaplains to participate in same-sex ceremonies.

“Recognizing this growing threat to the religious liberty of our armed forces, Rep. Tim Huelskamp of Kansas last week introduced the Military Religious Freedom Protection Act (H.R. 3828). The bill does three things:

–Protects military chaplains from being forced to participate in any ceremony or function that is against their conscience or religious beliefs.

–Protects our men and women in uniform from being discriminated against because of religious beliefs opposed to same-sex marriage or homosexuality.

–Prohibits the use of military facilities for same-sex marriage ceremonies.

“But President Obama is refusing to do his job as President—picking and choosing which laws are worth enforcing. He refuses to defend DOMA in court and is actively undermining it at every turn. And same-sex marriage activists have been working to leverage the repeal of Don’t Ask Don’t Tell to harass and intimidate chaplains and other service members who are standing up for marriage.

“Tell your Congressman we need to protect the religious liberty of our armed forces—just like they put their lives on the line to protect ours. Tell your Congressman to co-sponsor the Military Religious Freedom Protection Act (H.R.3828) today.”

[Chaps comment: Folks, we must take a stand for our troops and chaplains. Let’s bury all 535 Congressmen and Senators in fax paper today.]

“But after he did, the Army’s Office of the Chief of Chaplains sent out another communication forbidding Catholic priests to read the letter, in part because it seemed to encourage civil disobedience, and could be read as seditious against the Commander-in-Chief.

“More than one Catholic chaplain who spoke to us off the record confirmed that many chaplains disobeyed this instruction and read the letter anyway. [Risking treason charges.] Others sought further instructions from their Archbishop.

“Now after much behind-the-scenes bureaucratic wrangling, a new version of the letter will be read, one that was edited of the language about ‘unjust laws.’…

“A new statement issued this afternoon from Archbishop Broglio’s office acknowledged the interference this way:

“Archbishop Broglio and the Archdiocese stand firm in the belief, based on legal precedent, that such a directive from the Army constituted a violation of his Constitutionally-protected right of free speech and the free exercise of religion, as well as those same rights of all military chaplains and their congregants.

“Following a discussion between Archbishop Broglio and the Secretary of the Army, The Honorable John McHugh, it was agreed that it was a mistake to stop the reading of the Archbishop’s letter. Additionally, the line: ‘We cannot – we will not – comply with this unjust law’ was removed by Archbishop Broglio at the suggestion of Secretary McHugh over the concern that it could potentially be misunderstood as a call to civil disobedience. [The chaplains’ speech was censored by the Obama Administration.]

“It’s an issue that Catholic chaplains are taking very seriously in private.”

[Chaps Comment: It’s clear that OBAMA IS AFRAID OF CHURCH VOTE AWAKENING. Let’s take a stand for military chaplains rights, by petitioning Congress right now:

Please select here to sign urgent petition, and we will fax all 535 Congressmen and Senators (saving you time!) to PROTECT MILITARY CHAPLAINS AND TROOPS RELIGIOUS FREEDOM to oppose immorality, and co-sponsor and pass H.R. 3828.

Chaplains threatened, retaliated for Religious Views. Hero Congressman Steps Up.

It seems like common sense. Chaplains should be free to express their religious beliefs, and freely teach and counsel against immorality in our military. But after repeal of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell,” religious liberty of our military chaplains and troops is under attack.

Focus on the Family reports good news: “Late last week, Rep. Tim Huelskamp, R-Kan., introduced a bill aiming to protect chaplains and other members of the Armed Services who oppose homosexuality from being targeted for discrimination. It also seeks to keep military property from being used to perform same-sex ceremonies.

Rep. Huelskamp

“In part, the Military Religious Freedom Protection Act (HR 3828) reads that ‘a service member cannot be denied promotion or other training opportunities for any sincerely held beliefs he has about the appropriate or inappropriate expression of human sexuality.’

“Though the First Amendment to the Constitution already protects those rights, Huelskamp said in a press release it’s necessary to shore them up with a law since the repeal of the military’s Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell (DADT) policy.

“Fundamental to the core of this nation is the protection of religious liberty,” Huelskamp said. “The Military Religious Freedom Protection Act will ensure that none of our men and women in uniform — including our chaplain corps — is asked to compromise their religious and spiritual beliefs. It will also protect the freedom of those in the military to express vocally the tenets of their faiths. And it will make certain that our military facilities are not used in contravention to the federal Defense of Marriage Act, which states that marriage is between one man and one woman only.

[CHAPS COMMENT: Military chapels in all 50 states must now be open to desecration.]

“Military installations exist to carry out the national defense of our nation, not to facilitate a narrow social agenda,” said Huelskamp.

“According to the Chaplain Alliance for Religious Liberty, the repeal immediately created a chilling effect on free speech among the troops and a ‘climate of fear’ for chaplains who didn’t know what their rights were in the new environment, especially when it came to addressing and speaking about homosexual behavior,” FOTF continued.

“In some cases, said Executive Director Ron Crews, chaplains “suffered retaliation, including having their careers threatened, for being ‘politically incorrect.'”

Let’s petition Congress to support this new bill…

Please select here to sign urgent petition, and we will fax all 535 Congressmen and Senators (saving you time!) to PROTECT MILITARY CHAPLAINS AND TROOPS RELIGIOUS FREEDOM to oppose immorality, and co-sponsor and pass H.R. 3828.

The National Organization of Marriage President Brian Brown wrote:

“In September, the Department of Defense issued two more memos, requiring all military facilities to be available for same-sex weddings and allowing chaplains to participate in same-sex ceremonies.

“Recognizing this growing threat to the religious liberty of our armed forces, Rep. Tim Huelskamp of Kansas last week introduced the Military Religious Freedom Protection Act (H.R. 3828). The bill does three things:

–Protects military chaplains from being forced to participate in any ceremony or function that is against their conscience or religious beliefs.

–Protects our men and women in uniform from being discriminated against because of religious beliefs opposed to same-sex marriage or homosexuality.

–Prohibits the use of military facilities for same-sex marriage ceremonies.

“But President Obama is refusing to do his job as President—picking and choosing which laws are worth enforcing. He refuses to defend DOMA in court and is actively undermining it at every turn. And same-sex marriage activists have been working to leverage the repeal of Don’t Ask Don’t Tell to harass and intimidate chaplains and other service members who are standing up for marriage.

“Tell your Congressman we need to protect the religious liberty of our armed forces—just like they put their lives on the line to protect ours. Tell your Congressman to co-sponsor the Military Religious Freedom Protection Act (H.R.3828) today.”

[Chaps comment: Folks, we must take a stand for our troops and chaplains. Let’s bury all 535 Congressmen and Senators in fax paper today.]

Hillary Clinton: "Forget Israel or Congress, I'm funding Palestine anyway."

April 14, 2012 by Chaplain Gordon Klingenschmitt

HOT PETITION! Sign to support PRO-ISRAEL H.Res. 297 and 271 which defends Israel’s right to defend her borders, and rejecting President Obama’s call for a return to the indefensible 1967 borders.We will auto-fax 535 Congressmen/Senators. We’ve already delivered 340,000 petitions for Israel. Can you help us reach 350,000?

Hillary Clinton: “Forget Israel or Congress, I’m funding Palestine anyway.”

In an act of open defiance of the U.S. Constitution, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton took direct aim against Israel this week, and bypassed Congress to violate U.S. law, by unilaterally appropriating $147 million of your tax-dollars to the Palestinians.

Secretary Hillary Rodham Clinton

The United States Constitution (art. I. § 9) says: “No money shall be drawn from the treasury, but in consequence of appropriations made by law.” (In other words, Congress, not Hillary has power of the purse.)

U.S. Law, quoted in a 407 to 6 vote last year for H.Res 268, says: “Resolved: That the House of Representatives…reaffirms the United States statutory requirement precluding assistance to a Palestinian Authority that includes Hamas unless that Authority and all its ministers publicly accept Israel’s right to exist and all prior agreements and understandings with the United States and Israel.”

Since the P.A. abrogated the Oslo Accords and sought independence unilaterally, the Palestinians are no longer eligible for U.S. tax dollars, period, under U.S. law.

Enter Hillary Clinton, who flauts both law and Constitution this week. National Journal:

“Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton is allowing U.S. funds to flow to the West Bank and Gaza despite a hold by House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairwoman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, R-Fla., a rare display of executive-branch authority that angered the key lawmaker concerned about protecting her congressional oversight role.

“A State Department official said that a letter was delivered on Tuesday to key members of Congress informing them of Clinton’s decision to move forward with the $147 million package of the fiscal year 2011 economic support funds for the Palestinian people, despite Ros-Lehtinen’s hold. Administrations generally do not disburse funding over the objections of lawmakers on relevant committees…

“‘The U.S. has given $3 billion in aid to the Palestinians in the last five years alone, and what do we have to show for it?’ Ros-Lehtinen said on Wednesday in a statement to National Journal. ‘Now the administration is sending even more. Where is the accountability for U.S. taxpayer dollars?’

“Ros-Lehtinen earlier said she was disappointed that the administration ‘would employ hardball tactics against Congress and threaten to send, over congressional objection, U.S. taxpayer dollars to the Palestinian Authority.'”

Where does Hillary seize power to violate federal law, and spend our tax money without Congressional approval?

And why does the Obama Administration continue to hate Israel? Let’s take a stand for Israel, and demand Congress defund the Palestinians until they recognize Israel.

SELECT HERE TO SIGN URGENT PETITION DEFENDING ISRAEL’S RIGHT TO PROTECT HER OWN BORDERS, NOT DIVIDE HER GOD-GIVEN LAND, AND REJECT PRESIDENT OBAMA’S CALL FOR RETURN TO 1967 BORDERS. (WE WILL AUTO-FAX YOUR PETITION TO 535 U.S. CONGRESSMEN AND SENATORS!)

War begins in Israel. Palestinians launch 80 rockets to kill more Jews.

YnetNews reports:

“The Israeli Defense Force estimates that over 80 rockets have been fired at Israel since Friday, 65 exploded in the south. A Home Front Command official said: ‘The Command’s instructions have proven to save lives and they should be followed. When an alarm is sounded or if there is an explosion – enter a safety area.’ Israelis are also instructed to avoid large gatherings of more than 500.”

Reports of 5 Israeli civilian casualties, including at least 1 fatality, came with reports the U.S.-built “Iron Dome” anti-missile system helped stop just 20 of the 80 incoming rockets.

The Israeli Defense Force took out a terrorist cell of 12 Islamic Jihad operatives, watch video here. As we reported last year, most Palestinian or Gaza rockets were built by Iran.

I’ve been warning for a year that President Obama’s lukewarm, milktoast, pro-Muslim stance would incite a war against Israel. The war has already begun. But will America stand by our closest ally? Sadly, no, President Obama will not.

But the U.S. Congress can over-ride and stand firm with Israel, if we petition them.

SELECT HERE TO SIGN URGENT PETITION DEFENDING ISRAEL’S RIGHT TO PROTECT HER OWN BORDERS, NOT DIVIDE HER GOD-GIVEN LAND, AND REJECT PRESIDENT OBAMA’S CALL FOR RETURN TO 1967 BORDERS. (WE WILL AUTO-FAX YOUR PETITION TO 535 U.S. CONGRESSMEN AND SENATORS!)

Netanyahu’s Speech on Iran

Friends, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gave perhaps the most important speech I’ve ever heard in the defense of Israel yesterday, at the AIPAC meeting. It’s not a very long speech, but it’s critical we all understand how to best help Israel, in light of President Obama’s weak and feigned support, and Obama’s call for patient understanding of why Iran must better explain why they need “peaceful” nuclear weapons. (Who is Obama kidding?) Please take time today, to watch this entirely.

Please watch Netanyahu’s speech at this youtube link and then let’s take action. We must FLOOD CONGRESS WITH PETITIONS TO DEFEND ISRAEL, right now. Please sign again if you haven’t in a while, by selecting here…

VICTORY: District Court Affirms Right of Chaplains to Offer Imprecatory Prayers, Grants TRI Request to Dismiss Lawsuit

April 5, 2012 by Chaplain Gordon Klingenschmitt

DALLAS, Texas—Attorneys for The Rutherford Institute have succeeded in getting a lawsuit dismissed against a chaplaincy endorsing organization that was being sued over allegations that a chaplain affiliated with the group solicited imprecatory prayers which the plaintiffs considered to be “terroristic threats.” The lawsuit, which defined imprecatory prayer as “prayers for the Lord to protect the weak and faithful from the strong and wicked,” sought to limit the content of prayers offered by chaplains who are approved by the Chaplaincy of Full Gospel Churches (CFGC). For more than 25 years, CFGC has carried out a service to the nation by endorsing military and civilian chaplains. In a ruling from the bench by state District Court Judge Martin Hoffman, the court rejected the allegation that prayers critical of plaintiff Mikey Weinstein by Gordon Klingenschmitt, a chaplain endorsed by CFGC, caused other persons to threaten and damage property of the Weinsteins.

“Thankfully, the district court recognized that if people are forced to stop offering imprecatory prayers, half the churches, synagogues and mosques in this country will have to be shut down,” stated John W. Whitehead, president of The Rutherford Institute. “Free speech is the last bastion we have in this country. You can’t censor or stifle speech based on speculation.”

In 1984, the Department of Defense approved the Chaplaincy of Full Gospel Churches (CFGC) as an endorsing agency for military chaplains. CFGC is also recognized by the Veterans Administration, the Federal Bureau of Prisons and many other federal, state, municipal, and private institutions and agencies that employ chaplains to minister in a variety of specialized settings. CFGC presently endorses more than 270 military chaplains/chaplain candidates and more than 180 civilian chaplains/seminarians. The lawsuit against CFGC and its founder, the late Jim Ammerman, was filed by Mikey Weinstein, the founder of the Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF). The lawsuit sought to penalize CFGC for imprecatory prayers offered by one of its chaplains, Gordon Klingenschmitt. According to the lawsuit, Klingenschmitt posted a prayer on his website urging followers to pray for divine protection for CFGC and for the downfall of MRFF, which has been actively seeking to have CFGC removed as an approved chaplain endorsing agency. Weinstein accused CFGC of conspiring to threaten him through the prayers of its supporters. In coming to the defense of the CFGC, Rutherford Institute attorneys noted that while CFGC has no control over the content of prayers offered by its chaplains, the content of one’s prayers is protected under the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Affiliate attorneys Shelby Sharp of Fort Worth, Texas, and Art Schulcz of Alexandria, Va., assisted The Rutherford Institute in its defense of the Chaplaincy of Full Gospel Churches.

Congressman: White House stonewalling Kagan's recusal from Obamacare

March 21, 2012 by Chaplain Gordon Klingenschmitt

HOT PETITION! Ask Congress to impeach Justice Elena Kagan if she refuses to recuse herself from hearing the Obamacare case NFIB v. Sebelius. Please select, sign, and WE WILL FAX your petition to all 535 members of Congress (saving you time!) We’ve already sent 96,000 fax petitions. Can you help us reach 100,000?

Congressman: White House stonewalling Kagan’s recusal from Obamacare

Today the Washington Times published a blistering article written by Congressman Lamar Smith (R-TX), demanding Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan recuse herself from hearing the Obamacare case NFIB v. Sebellius next month. Coincidentally, we have faxed nearly 100,000 petitions to all 535 members of Congress. So Rep. Smith wrote to us:

“…The Affordable Care Act became law on March 23, 2010, and legal challenges were filed almost immediately. At the time, Justice Kagan was serving as the administration’s chief legal adviser on challenges to federal law, especially Supreme Court challenges. It would have been her job to consult with and advise the administration on how best to defend the new law.

“Justice Kagan was nominated to the Supreme Court on May 10, 2010. What Congress and the American people want to know is what role then-Solicitor General Kagan played prior to her nomination.

“The House Judiciary Committee, along with its Senate counterpart, is the legislative guardian of our Constitution. As chairman of the committee, I have sought to make public the facts relating to whether Justice Kagan should participate in the Supreme Court’s consideration of this important subject. For eight months, I have sought information from the Justice Department regarding what, if any, role Justice Kagan may have played in discussions about the constitutionality and prospective litigation over the president’s health care law.

“Since July 2011, I have written Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. on five occasions requesting that the Justice Department provide relevant documents and emails and produce witnesses for interviews. But instead of working to quiet questions by disclosing the facts about Justice Kagan’s prior health care reform-related work, the department has been stonewalling Congress, fueling speculation that there is something to hide…

“The rules regarding recusal are clear. The current recusal law, enacted in 1974, bars justices from hearing certain cases in which they were involved as government lawyers. If Justice Kagan participated in legal or procedural discussions regarding the health care law challenge, she should be recused from ruling on the case. The intent of recusal is to prevent any personal or professional bias that may impact a justice’s decision…

“Instead of honoring its obligation to cooperate in congressional oversight, the department refuses to provide the requested information. At a hearing in December, I questioned Mr. Holder until he finally conceded the department has failed to assert any legal privilege justifying its noncooperation.

“The department has given no good, justifiable reason to deny this congressional request. The administration still refuses to release the relevant documents. This perpetual stonewalling is not just bad governing; it proves that the president’s campaign promises of openness and transparency were empty…”

You can read the Congressman’s entire letter here. But the Chairman has issued a cry for help, and we must answer that cry. Let’s bury all Congress in fax paper today. We must demand Congress impeach Justice Elena Kagan.

SELECT HERE TO SIGN PETITION, and we will instantly fax all 535 Congressmen and Senators demanding impeachment hearings if Justice Elena Kagan does not recuse herself from the Obamacare case NFIB v. Sebelius. (Saving you much time and postage!)

New lawsuit can force Kagan to recuse Obamacare, White House to release secret docs

Yet another public service lawfirm, Judicial Watch, has filed an important Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit to force the White House to release its secret documents, that prove Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan cannot remain unbiased when considering an Obamacare case in a few weeks.

The new lawsuit argues the Obama Administration continues to stonewall Congressional subpoenas for documents, and has now violated federal law by withholding public records to which public citizens are also entitled under the FOIA law.

“E-mails that previously were obtained by the organization suggest Kagan and her staff in the White House ‘may have participated in discussions pertaining to the legal defense of Obamacare,’ Judicial Watch told WND.com.

“Other records show then-Solicitor General Kagan commenting excitedly on the passage of Obamacare,” Judicial Watch reported.

“This is no time for the Obama administration to stonewall and obfuscate,” said Tom Fitton, the chief of Judicial Watch. “We hope the court will force the Obama administration to respond to our request in a manner consistent with federal law.”

He said, “The American people deserve to know how deeply involved Elena Kagan and her top deputies were in shaping the Obama administration’s legal defense of Obamacare. The integrity of the courts requires a full airing of those facts before she participates in ruling on a matter she may have helped prepare for litigation. There is more information at the Justice Department but clearly Eric Holder intends to run out the clock.”

Meanwhile the Supreme Court has ignored a motion to re-consider forcing Kagan’s recusal filed by our lawyer friend Larry Klayman of Freedom Watch, according to WND.com.

I leapt out in faith and spent $30,000 over 3 months on this campaign (but recovered only $18K), renting big email lists reaching millions of patriots (seriously I’m losing my shirt, so please donate here), but our emails have gone viral and we’ve already faxed 96,000 petitions to Washington DC. We buried in fax paper all 535 Senators, Congressmen, (and the Supreme Court too) demanding the impeachment of Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan. Let’s reach 100,000 today. It’s a team effort, and I’m grateful for your help.

SELECT HERE TO SIGN PETITION, and we will instantly fax all 535 Congressmen and Senators demanding impeachment hearings if Justice Elena Kagan does not recuse herself from the Obamacare case NFIB v. Sebelius. (Saving you much time and postage!)

Chief Justice Roberts: Stop Asking Kagan to Recuse Obamacare.

Your faxes have been noticed by the Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. After YOU helped fax over 83,000 petitions to Congress (with copies directly to the Supreme Court) demanding Justice Elena Kagan recuse herself from hearing the Obamacare case, Chief Justice Roberts came to Kagan’s aid by writing a letter defending the Court’s integrity.

Roberts wrote in his “end of year” report that we shouldn’t worry about Kagan’s bias, despite the fact she helped write, defend, and lobbied to pass Obamacare:

“I have complete confidence in the capability of my colleagues to determine when recusal is warranted,” Roberts wrote. “They are [Kagan is] jurists of exceptional integrity and experience whose character and fitness have been examined through a rigorous appointment and confirmation process.”

“The Supreme Court does not sit in judgment of one of its own members’ decision whether to recuse in the course of deciding a case. [Roberts won’t rebuke Kagan.] Indeed, if the Supreme Court reviewed those decisions, it would create an undesirable situation in which the court could affect the outcome of a case by selecting who among its members may participate.”

“If an appeals court or district court judge withdraws from a case, there is another federal judge who can serve in that recused judge’s place. But the Supreme Court consists of nine members who always sit together, and if a justice withdraws from a case, the court must sit without its full membership.”

“A justice accordingly cannot withdraw from a case as a matter of convenience or simply to avoid controversy. Rather, each justice has an obligation to the Court to be sure of the need to recuse before deciding to withdraw from a case.”

So Roberts won’t step in to tell Kagan to recuse herself. What do you think? I think we’re getting their attention. If Roberts won’t oversee Kagan, the U.S. Congress must.

Should Justice Kagan be trusted to “not recuse” herself, or impeached by Congress?

Four Senators demand Kagan recuse Obamacare. We demand impeachment.

After YOU helped fax thousands of petitions, four top-ranking Republican Senators agreed with us and demanded Justice Kagan recuse herself from the Obamacare case. In a letter signed by Majority Leader McConnell (R-KY), Whip John Kyl (R-AZ), Ranking Judiciary Grassley (R-IA), and Senator Mike Lee (R-UT), all four rebuked President Obama’s Attorney General Eric Holder, who has obstructed justice and blocked Congressional investigation of Kagan’s bias in the Obamacare case.

“Federal law requires recusal from a case if a judicial officer of the United States ‘has served in governmental employment and in such capacity participated as counsel, adviser or material witness concerning the proceeding or expressed an opinion concerning the merits of the particular case or controversy.’ 28 U.S.C. § 455(b)(3). In addition, a federal judge must disqualify herself from participating in a matter if her ‘impartiality might reasonably be questioned.’ Id. at § 455(a). It appears that former Solicitor General Kagan’s participation in the Obama Administration’s defense of the PPACA may satisfy both requirements for recusal,” the letter said. You can read the Senators’ full letter here.

Sadly A.G. Holder continues to stonewall Congressional investigations. “Unfortunately, your Department has rejected all Congressional oversight requests for information about her role in the Obama Administration’s defense of this law [Obamacare].” While Holder blocks any justice to help Obama, Kagan scored the touchdown by defending Obamacare, and now she acts as the “instant replay referee” to find no flags on her own play.

Her “impartiality” is obviously flawed, as the Senators point to a March 2009 email Kagan sent to DOJ Legal Adviser Larry Tribe concerning Obamacare: Entitled, “Fingers and toes crossed today!” Kagan emails, “I hear they have the votes, Larry!! Simply amazing.” [How impartial can she be when ruling on this law?]

Political analyist Dick Morris agrees: “As Solicitor-General, Kagan was the point person for defending the constitutionality of federal law before the Supreme Court. She was, in effect, the lawyer supporting the Health Care law. How can she now sit in judgment on it?” Morris has also delivered 19,000+ petitions to Congress, along with our 63,000+.

Can you help us reach 100,000 fax petitions to Congress? Please sign our fax petition.

SELECT HERE TO SIGN PETITION, and we will instantly fax all 535 Congressmen and Senators demanding impeachment hearings if Justice Elena Kagan does not recuse herself from the Obamacare case NFIB v. Sebelius. (Saving you much time and postage!)

85 groups + 96,000 petitions demand Kagan recuse Obamacare.

I have amazing news to report. We can stop Obamacare and many tax-funded abortions!

Now leaders of 85 groups represent millions of Americans (including me, Chaps, representing YOU) signed a joint letter to House Judiciary Chairman Lamar Smith (R-TX), as drafted by our dear friend Philip Jauregui, President of the Judicial Action Group, including a veritable “Who’s Who” of Christian and conservative activists, including Family Research Council, Christian Coalition, Eagle Forum, Concerned Women for America, and many tea party groups. You can read our full letter and list of 85 groups here.

The new letter explains we have a “basis to question the impartiality of Justice Kagan if she were permitted to prepare the defense of a case as an advocate and then switch roles and judge the defense of that same case as a justice.” [Chaps’ comment: Imagine going to court, and suddenly the defense lawyer takes over as judge? How unfair and biased! ]

“Attorney General Holder has failed to comply with your repeated requests [to subpoena Kagan’s records] and has characterized your reasonable requests to determine the facts in this matter as ‘unseemly.’ We disagree, and believe that it would be ‘unseemly’ for the system of ‘checks and balances’ to fail to operate in this landmark matter. Accordingly, we respectfully request that you immediately hold hearings to investigate the full extent to which Justice Elena Kagan was involved in preparing the legal defense of the PPACA during her former service as Solicitor General.” [Chaps wants hearings, impeachment!]

Friends, we fought against the pro-abortion funding provisions of Obamacare by faxing over a million petitions to Congress. We fought against Kagan’s appointment to the Supreme Court with nearly a quarter million petitions. We helped persuade 26 state attorneys general to join the lawsuit NFIB v. Sebelius to defeat Obamacare in court.

We’re now joining the final battle at the Supreme Court of the United States, to defeat Obamacare permanently, but one biased Justice Elena Kagan could decide our fate.

I need 10 or 20 folks to please donate $500 or $1,000 extra this week, just to break even. (If anybody thinks I’m getting rich here, they’re mistaken.) Help us help America!

Let’s take one final stand against Obamacare. Take action today…

SELECT HERE TO SIGN PETITION, and we will instantly fax all 535 Congressmen and Senators demanding impeachment hearings if Justice Elena Kagan does not recuse herself from the Obamacare case NFIB v. Sebelius. (Saving you much time and postage!)

Friends, our Supreme Court will soon decide if Obamacare and it’s pro-abortion tax-funding is Constitutional. Let’s take a stand today, and demand Justice Kagan recuse herself, or face impeachment hearings.

Florida Judge enforces Sharia Law over U.S. Constitution. Legislators allow it.

March 20, 2012 by Chaplain Gordon Klingenschmitt

Hot Petition! Stop Muslim Sharia and Foreign Law from enforcement in American courts by activist judges. Select here, sign petition, we will fax all 535 Congressmen and Senators (saving you time!) to pass H.R. 973 and protect our Constitution.

Florida Judge enforces Sharia Law over U.S. Constitution. Legislators allow it.

The Florida State legislature has failed to pass S.B. 1360, a law preventing Muslim Sharia Law from being enforced by liberal judges, especially one who hates the U.S. Constitution.

The American Thinker blog reports: “A controversy over the defeat of Florida legislation that would have restricted state courts from considering foreign laws as part of legal decisions has intensified. This is after a Tampa judge ruled that two opposing Muslim parties have their dispute settled under Islamic sharia law ‘pursuant to the Quran’ in spite of the fact that one Muslim group did not want to do this…and the Florida Appellate Court denied the petition to appeal the judge’s ruling.

“The proposed law, SB 1360, had been opposed jointly and lobbied against by both CAIR (The Council on American Islamic Relations) and the ADL (the mostly Jewish Anti-Defamation League) … American citizens must be allowed to question, without being called ‘Islamophobes’ or ‘bigots,’ the inherent threat of Islamic sharia ideology, disguised as only religious law, before it endangers our American society. The political correctness of this constitutional argument actually blinds one to the dangers of some Islamic laws…specifically those that pertain to women and children and the punishments rendered for breaking these laws…

“The ‘sinister’ fact is that Islamic ideology makes Muslim women and children powerless, intimidated by the obscene rules of a male-dominated society. Sharia law requires women to present practically impossible proof of their innocence, such as eyewitnesses to being raped. A woman who seeks justice for this crime, files for divorce, or desires child custody, or a child that strays into Western ways, has hardly any means to win in a sharia court…

“Caning and flogging in public are done in cases where a female is found guilty of a minor sexual infraction, and stoning to death for a wife’s adultery is common in the Muslim world. Amputation of a hand or foot is considered an appropriate price for thievery, while beheading, crucifying, and hanging are the recommended penalties for murder or blasphemy. Children can also be harshly treated under sharia law by being forced to remain in the custody of an abusive father after there is a divorce.

“Killing in the name of ‘family honor’ is an accepted form of Islamic punishment for a woman’s unfaithfulness or a Muslim child straying too far from the Islamic way…”

Pentagon bows to Sharia law. American Generals apologize to Muslim terrorists.

Multiple sources now confirm that top American Generals, under direct pressure from the Obama Administration, are attending Muslim mosques and apologizing for allowing Korans to be discarded and inadvertently burned in Afghanistan. No such apologies were issued when the Pentagon burned American Bibles in 2009.

The Afghani Karzai government now claims NATO is demanding American soldiers will be put on trial for buring Korans, (which reportedly contained secret code messages from terrorist prisoners.) “NATO officials promised to meet Afghan nation’s demand of bringing to justice, through an open trial, those responsible for the incident and it was agreed that the perpetrators of the crime be brought to justice as soon as possible,” says Karzai.

Four major apologies ensued. Last week 1) General John Allen, a Marine four-star commander of US Forces – Afghanistan, apologized, following 2) President Obama’s apology, which also inspired 3) My personal favorite is the HILARIOUS apology of this nice lady who appears smarter than President Obama.

Sadly, a fourth senior Pentagon official has kowtowed in cowardice to Muslim terrorists who killed American soldiers to avenge the “honor” of the mishandled Korans.

IINA reports: “A senior Pentagon official apologized Friday to Washington-area Muslims for the burning of Qurans at a military base in Afghanistan. Peter Lavoy, acting assistant secretary of defense for Asia and Pacific security affairs, said the military is investigating what occurred and that all 140,000 coalition troops in Afghanistan are being retrained in the handling of religious materials. Lavoy [pictured above] apologized multiple times during a brief speech during prayer services at the ADAMS Center in Sterling, one of the largest mosques in the country. ‘I come here today to apologize on behalf of the Department of Defense for the incident that took place in Afghanistan this week,’ Lavoy told worshippers, saying the burnings were done ‘unknowingly and improperly.’ Lavoy’s remarks at the suburban Washington mosque follow protests across Afghanistan over the burning of several Qurans at a U.S. military base.”

President Obama said he would punish any American troops who mistreated copies of the Koran: “I assure you that we will take the appropriate steps to avoid any recurrence, to include holding accountable those responsible,” said Obama. A witchhunt is now underway, to find and punish the American soldiers Obama blames for mishandling the Muslim book.

BOTTOM LINE: Has the Pentagon now bowed to enforce Sharia law, rather than the U.S. Constitution? Lavoy, Allen, and Obama should be investigated and removed for cowardice, and for violating their oath to the Constitution, which protects freedom of press, including the freedom to burn books (rather than kill people, as the Muslims do). Let’s petition Congress.

Muslim Judge in U.S. court: OK to choke people who mock Muhammad.

Meanwhile another American Judge Mark Martin, a Muslim, just ruled to enforce Sharia law instead of the U.S. Constitution in a shocking case in Pennsylvania. Get this:

An atheist joker Ernest Perce dressed for a Holloween parade as the Muslim false prophet Muhammed. While walking in the parade the atheist joker was jumped and beaten by an easily offended Muslim man, Talaag Elbayomy. A video camera and eyewitness policeman captured the assault and testified for the atheist victim, who was physically beaten by the Muslim attacker, right here in the USA.

The Muslim attacker was an immigrant who claims he did not know his actions were illegal, or that it was legal in this country to represent Muhammad in any form. He also testified that his 9 year old son was present, and the man said he felt he needed to show his young son that he was willing to fight for his Prophet.

But the U.S. judge was Muslim, so he threw out the video evidence, dismissed the eyewitness cop, lectured the victim for mocking Muhammed, and freed the violent Muslim attacker.

Watch the 2 minute ABC News story below, share widely:

The U.S. Judge said to the atheist: “I’m a Muslim, I find it offensive. But you have that right, but you’re way outside your boundaries or first amendment rights. This is what, and I said I spent about 7 and a half years living in other countries…In many Arabic speaking countries something like this is definitely against the law there. In their society in fact it can be punishable by death and it frequently is in their society.”

Let me get this straight. An American Judge enforces foreign Sharia law rather than the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution? And this is happening in America?

This is why Congress must pass H.R. 973, to stop Activist Judges from enforcing Sharia Muslim law rather than the U.S. Constitution and First Amendment. Let’s take action.

Congresswoman: Stop judges who promote Sharia and Foreign Law over Constitution.

Conservative Congresswoman Sandy Adams (R-FL) has taken a stand for liberty and to defend the U.S. Constitution and US law, by sponsoring a bill that stops liberal activist judges from enforcing Muslim Sharia law, or foreign laws, in American Courts.

Adams wrote an op-ed article explaining her bill, saying in part:

“Imagine waking up one Sunday morning and reading the headline in your local newspaper: ‘Supreme Court rules that the press can’t question the president,’ and imagine that their ruling cited international case law from nations like China or Cuba, where it is illegal to question the word of the executive branch. While this idea may seem far-fetched, it is a daunting possibility.

“Foreign law poses a very real threat to the American judicial system…Our Constitution laid the foundation for our nation’s judicial system, and referencing or using foreign law in American courts will lead to its erosion…

“That is why I have introduced legislation to protect our Constitution and federal court systems from this type of practice. My two-page bill, H.R. 973, simply states that ‘in any court created by or under Article III of the Constitution of the United States, no justice, judge, or other judicial official shall decide any issue in a case before that court in whole or in part on the authority of foreign law, except to the extent the Constitution or an Act of Congress requires the consideration of that foreign law.’

“Not only is using international precedent a transparent disregard for the Constitution, but it could be used to advance a judge’s personal political agenda over the best interests of the nation. Judges have a responsibility to interpret the laws of the land, not legislate from the bench, and the practice of referring to foreign law puts their underlying motives into question. There are three particular Supreme Court cases where judges have cited foreign and international precedent: Lawrence v. Texas, where the court overturned state anti-sod omy statutes; Atkins v. Virginia, where the court held against the execution of mentally retarded capital defendants; and Roper v. Simmons, where the court outlawed application of the death penalty to offenders who were under 18 when their crimes were committed. International and foreign laws were cited in all three cases by our Supreme Court justices in reaching their decisions, setting precedent for future rulings…”

[Chaps comment: Passing HR 973 could reverse Lawrence, and help ban sod omy!]

Please select here to sign urgent petition, and we will fax all 535 Congressmen and Senators (saving you time!) to Stop Activist Judges from enforcing Sharia or Foreign Law in American courts. Ask Congress to pass H.R. 973 today!

Adams continued: “Currently there are over a dozen states that have introduced legislation banning foreign law on the state level — including the state I represent, Florida…[it has] become a fixture of the confirmation process for Supreme Court justices. In her 2010 confirmation hearing, Elena Kagan was questioned by Senator Charles E. Grassley, an Iowa Republican, who asked if she thought international law should factor into a federal court’s decision-making process. She confirmed that she did, stating: ‘I think it depends. There are some cases in which the citation of foreign law, or international law, might be appropriate.’

“This kind of practice begs the question: Are we going to allow our court systems to dictate our policymaking process based off of foreign sources or are we going to go through the proper channels prescribed by our Constitution? We must remember that we have an American judicial system in place for a reason; it is based off of our country’s rich history and it is intentionally unique to our great nation. As we move forward as a country, we must work to protect it.”

–Rep. Sandy Adams represents Florida’s 24th Congressional District.

[Chaps comment: Let’s stand with Congresswoman Sandy Adams, and petition all 535 Congressmen and Senators to co-sponsor and pass her bill to stop Sharia in US courts.]

Federal Judge: Children must get access to explicit web-sites in school

March 15, 2012 by Chaplain Gordon Klingenschmitt

HOT PETITION! Stop Sen. Al Franken from homosexualizing public school classrooms. Stop mandatory pro-homosexual lectures to kids. Please select, sign, and WE WILL FAX your petition to all 535 members of Congress (saving you time!) to oppose and filibuster S.555 + H.R. 998 the “Homosexual Classrooms Act” aka Student Non-Discrimination.

Federal Judge: Children must get access to explicit web-sites in school

The Washington Times confirms Democrats #1 education priority is to homosexualize children in the classroom, by passing Senator Al Franken’s S. 555 and H.R. 998.

The bills “would be more appropriately titled the ‘GLBT Student Promotion Act,’ ” says the top lawyer for Concerned Women for America, Mario Diaz. “The aim of the legislation is not the protection of students. SNDA is a Trojan horse with the objective of promoting acceptance of GLBT behavior by eradicating deeply held [Christian] beliefs that proponents view as ‘homophobic.’ ”

Pro-homosexual Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa wants to re-write the Democrat National Committee platform to force homosexual ‘marriage’ in all 50 states, saying the issues should be put on the platform because “I think it’s basically who we are.”

President Obama wants homosexual ‘marriage’ but fears losing Christian votes. Obama openly supports the “Homosexual Classrooms Act” with allies like Sen. Al Franken (author of S.555) and openly homosexual Congressman Jared Polis (author of H.R.998). With Obama’s help now 38 Senators and 157 Reps. (195 Democrats total) publicly support turning our kids over to homosexual re-education.

In a shocking court ruling this week, a federal judge in Missouri ruled that school children must be given access to sexually explicit web-sites in school. The Judge agreed with ACLU lawyers that a school district’s custom filtering system “systematically allows access to websites expressing a negative viewpoint toward LGBT individuals by categorizing them as ‘religion,’ but filters out positive viewpoints toward LGBT issues by categorizing them as ‘sexuality.'” So the judge now blocks religious sites, to favor sex sites in school?

But thank God, Americans like the pro-family StopSB48.com group in California are fighting for the rights of Christian children in public schools. California law (SB 48) recently forced all public school textbooks to promote homosexuality to kids in school. But Christians in California are petitioning again to overturn that law.

If we lose the battle to stop S. 555 or H.R. 998, we will lose our kids in all 50 states. Homosexuals will have full control of classrooms, and kids. Let’s demand Congress stop Sen. Al Franken in his tracks, right now.

SELECT HERE TO SIGN PETITION, and we will instantly fax all 535 Congressmen and Senators (saving you much time!) to stop Sen. Al Franken’s “Homosexual Classrooms Act” and OPPOSE AND FILIBUSTER S.555 + H.R. 998 aka Student Non-Discrimination.

Al Franken gets more votes to Homose xualize Kindergarten Kids nationwide

Last month California became the first state to mandate all public schools, teachers, and textbooks must teach and promote “Gay History” lessons to kids. The bill passed last July went into effect in January 2012. Proud of their victory, homosexual activists are skipping state by state votes, and now plan to force their message on kids in all 50 states.

Sen. Al Franken (D-MN) has gained 5 Representatives and 2 Senators since last week, now with 155 House co-sponsors and 36 Senators supporting two truly demonic bills, S. 555 and H.R. 998. These bills violate public school children in all 50 states by requiring mandatory pro-homosexual lectures to kids of all ages (including kindergarten and 1st grade). Schools that decline will lose funding. Franken is gaining steam! We cannot let him win this battle for the hearts and minds of our kids.

We must win the fax war to petition Congress. If the church is silent, and homose xuals petition more than we, Congress may cave to their demands. We can’t let their side win!

Many Christians in California thought they would be able to “opt out” their children from pro-homosexual lectures, but sadly, because the lessons were considered “social science” and not “health education,” students were given no choice but to attend. Even worse, children who voice anti-homosexual views are labeled ‘bullies’ and can be punished (by grown-ups who bully kids into rejecting their parents’ faith.)

Religious Freedom is also under attack from the left. James Madison, a father of our Constitution, referred to the right of conscience as “the most sacred of all property.” Our kids will lose any right to their own conscience, if S.555 or H.R. 998 are passed. Christian kids will be punished, and publicly ridiculed by pro-homosexual teachers. This persecution will not only be legal, it will be required by law.

Bottom Line: If these bills make to Obama’s desk, they will effectively end First Amendment rights for our children, and “re-educate” kids to accept homosexuality starting in kindergarten. Kids will be encourged to find their “sexuality” in the 1st grade. If your child is approached by a pervert they could be punished if they respond in a “mean way.”

Let’s take a stand, to protect our kids from Al Franken’s abuse.

SELECT HERE TO SIGN PETITION, and we will instantly fax all 535 Congressmen and Senators (saving you much time!) to stop Sen. Al Franken’s “Homosexual Classrooms Act” and OPPOSE AND FILIBUSTER S.555 + H.R. 998 aka Student Non-Discrimination.

Al Franken: Minnesota should homose xualize marriage; all 50 states to re-educate kids.

Senator Al Franken (D-MN) made a video this week demanding Minnesota legalize homosexual ‘marriage’ and vote against a ballot initiative that would define Minnesota marriage as only between one man and one woman, this November. North Carolina will also decide in a similar vote this fall.

The controversial Senator is also the driving force behind S. 555 and H.R. 998 which would “re-educate” elementary school children in all 50 states to accept homosexual sin as normal, against the teaching of their parents’ faith. Both these bills are an attempt to give homosexuals and perverts protected status, and mandate pro-homosexual recruiting of kids in public schools (or else the school loses funding).

If either of these bills find their way to President Obama’s desk, make no mistake, Obama will sign them into law, forcing America’s children to be exposed to pro-homosexual ideas as early as kindergarten, and every year thereafter. These bills have 150+ co-sponsors.

The nagging question is, why? Why is Sen. Al Franken trying to force homosexuality onto your children? Remember that “all politics is local.” Franken needs homosexual money to get re-elected, and since most gays don’t tithe to churches, they will pay Franken’s campaign for re-election.

But thank God, both houses of the conservative Minnesota state legislature voted to let the people vote this fall, whether to ban ALL gay marriages in the state. Sen. Franken is trying to do an end run, around his own state legislature, by passing a federal law. Minnesota Christians have out-raised homosexuals in both money and volunteers, and right now traditional marriage shows a slight edge with 48% supporting “one man, one woman,” 44% against.

Liberals have already sued to try to force gay marriage in Minnesota. Labor unions and the NAACP are also funding homosexual marriage initiatives, despite opposition from many of their own constituents. Last week the President of the NAACP Ben Jealous said “LGBT and civil rights groups must unite and join forces for both movements to succeed.” Sadly, NAACP leaders have declared war on every Christian home in America.

Let’s protect kids in all 50 states, especially Minnesota, by demanding Congress oppose Al Franken’s “Homosexual Classrooms Act” and defeat S. 555 and H.R. 998.

SELECT HERE TO SIGN PETITION, and we will instantly fax all 535 Congressmen and Senators (saving you much time!) to stop Sen. Al Franken’s “Homosexual Classrooms Act” and OPPOSE AND FILIBUSTER S.555 + H.R. 998 aka Student Non-Discrimination.

Wash. Post mocks Christian hero opposing Al Franken’s Homosexual Classrooms Act

The Washington Post has run an opinion piece mocking the hero Christian Activist who is trying to stop Senator Al Franken (D-MN) from homosexualizing all public school children.

“Everyone’s favorite openly gay-hating Loudoun County supervisor, Eugene Delgaudio (R-Sterling), was up to more of his hijinks last week with an e-mail appeal…to protect America from two bills in Congress that would prohibit discrimination against students based on their sexual orientation.

“The bills, Delgaudio wrote, would ‘require schools to teach appalling homosexual acts…force private and even religious schools to teach a pro-homosexual agenda…ram through their entire perverted vision for a homosexual America….create a new America based on sexual promiscuity.'”

Delgaudio is a lone voice crying in the wilderness, and he needs our support to oppose Senator Al Franken’s agenda to “Indoctrinate an entire generation of American children with pro-homosexual propaganda and eliminate traditional values from American society. Their ultimate dream is to create a new America based on sexual promiscuity in which the values you and I cherish are long forgotten.”

Hero Delgaudio is leading the fight to stop H.R. 998 & S. 555, which already have 150 co-sponsors in the House, and 34 co-sponsors in the Senate, and still gaining support.

But villains like Sen. Al Franken are the main architects writing legislation to make it LAW that your children must be recruited by homosexual perverts in public schools.

Sen. Franken recently released a video in which he blames the high rate of suicide among homosexual teens on school bullying, by abusing these sad tragedies as his own propaganda tool. By spreading even more lies to more teens, Franken is ultimately causing more suicides.

Teen suicide is tragic enough without Senator Franken recruiting more kids into homosexuality, which causes depression, self-hatred, self-rejection and self-murder. The best way to stop teen suicide is to show confused teens there is hope and healing and forgiveness in Jesus Christ! Teens trapped in sin need Jesus, not liberal propaganda that promotes more sin and more depression.

But the bully Franken wants to de-fund any public school that won’t give his mandatory pro-homosexual lectures to kids, starting in kindergarten. If Franken wins, adult teachers will bully innocent kids into rejecting the traditional values of their parents. Your kids will not only be sexually “re-educated,” they’ll be told they can’t pray in school.

Franken’s plan will result in more teen suicides, not less. We must stop this! Let’s petition Congress to protect our children.

SELECT HERE TO SIGN PETITION, and we will instantly fax all 535 Congressmen and Senators (saving you much time!) to stop Sen. Al Franken’s “Homosexual Classrooms Act” and OPPOSE AND FILIBUSTER S.555 + H.R. 998 aka Student Non-Discrimination.

New State Law? Boys can use girls locker rooms. (Your state next).

In California a recently amended bill will soon allow boys to access the girl’s locker room, bathrooms as well to play and compete on girl’s sports teams.

Assembly Bill 266 has been amended to read: “A pupil shall be permitted to participate in sex-segregated school programs, activities, and facilities, including athletic teams and competitions, consistent with his or her gender identity, irrespective of the gender listed on the pupil’s records.”

“The promoters of this legislation are exploiting children’s gender confusion with their proposal to let each student choose the bathroom and locker room were they most desire to be,” said Karen England, Executive Director of Capitol Resource Institute. “Does anybody really believe it is a good idea for either the troubled or the tempted to be told it is up to them to decide whether they should use the boy’s or the girl’s bathroom?”

While gay, lesbian, and preverts are pushing this onto elementry school kids in California, there are over 140 Congress men in DC trying to do the same thing in every school across America, both private and public. Senator Al Franken and Homosexual Congressman Jared Polis have introduced S.555 and H.R. 998 the “Homosexual Classrooms Act” aka Student Non-Discrimination.

The Obama Administration would make it legal for homosexuals to recruit your children starting in the first grade, with mandatory classroom lectures that normalize sin. Educators will be required to ask your children if they are straight or gay starting in the 1st grade, and they will be able to help each child find his or her “chosen” sexuality. At an age when most kids don’t even know what sex is, they will be forced to endure pro-homosexual propaganda. Schools that decline will lose their funding.

The Liberals are fighting this battle on every front. Assembly Bill 266 in California started out as a common bill about sports education two years ago. Yet by adding an amendment to a two year bill the legislation avoids many of the hearings and public input requirements and much of the expected public opposition this would generate.

This is also true in DC, where Homosexuals are trying to push pro-gay bills on elementary children very quietly and without spotlight or attention. Your petitions to Congress expose their evil, and deny them any stealth ability. YOU shine the light on their dark sinful deeds.

SELECT HERE TO SIGN PETITION, and we will instantly fax all 535 Congressmen and Senators (saving you much time!) to stop Sen. Al Franken’s “Homosexual Classrooms Act” and OPPOSE AND FILIBUSTER S.555 + H.R. 998 aka Student Non-Discrimination.

Senator Al Franken bullies kids with “Homose xual Classrooms Act.” Take action!

While Barney Frank (D-MA) is retiring (thank God), his replacement Senator Al Franken (D-MN) and openly homosexual Congressman Jared Polis (D-CO) are pushing to attach the “Homosexual Classrooms Act” (aka Student Non-Discrimination) to recruit our kids.

According to LGBTQnation: “No Child Left Behind (2001), soon to be re-authorized after ten years in the updated Elementary and Secondary Education Re-Authorization 2011 (ESEA), made it out of committee in October 2011 without the bipartisan support it needed to include protection for LGBT students.

“When the ESEA is brought to the floor of the Senate in either December or January, there is a push to attach the Student Non-Discrimination Act, HR [998] (SNDA), to it.”

Christian activist Linda Harvey of Mission America warns “that such anti-bullying legislation is ‘using bullying prevention as a tool to force approval of homosexuality and gender bending on children, teachers and families.'”

Mandatory pro-homosexual recruiting lessons to grade-school children? Why?

71% of Americans oppose this bill. Then why do 148 Reps and 34 Senators Co-Sponsor these bills to make child abusing abomination federal law?

Al Franken’s bill is S. 555 and Jared Polis’ (the first openly gay man to be elected as a non-incumbent) bill is H.R. 998.

This legislation would make it not only legal for teachers to introduce to alternative and sexually perverse lifestyles, but in fact require them to introduce kids to homosexuality without parental consent.

This legislation would protect homosexual propositions and sexual advances as free speech. The legislation will EXEMPT homosexual students from any punishment if they initiate propositioning, harassing, or even sexually assaulting their classmates, as part of their specially-protected right to “freedom of self-expression.”

Any school that does not teach this pro-homosexual agenda will lose all federal funding.

What about private or religious schools? They would be forced too. Kevin Jennings, the President’s pro-homosexual “Safe Schools Czar,” stated that “every school, public, private or parochial has an obligation” to teach a pro-homosexual curriculum. Traditional values will be outlawed as “bigotry,” and speech by any Christian student will be silenced.

We need to fight this! If we don’t stand up and help put the fear of God into Congress, the Senate will attach this bill, and the President will sign it into law, very soon. Let’s petition.

SELECT HERE TO SIGN PETITION, and we will instantly fax all 535 Congressmen and Senators (saving you much time!) to stop Sen. Al Franken’s “Homosexual Classrooms Act” and OPPOSE AND FILIBUSTER S.555 + H.R. 998 aka Student Non-Discrimination.

Friends, our nation’s future depends upon whether we take a stand to protect children from pro-homosexual recruiters like Jared Polis and Al Franken. They’re recruiting public school kids aggressively now. Let’s take a stand today, and keep them out.

God Bless you, in Jesus’ name,

New lawsuit can force Kagan to recuse Obamacare, White House to release secret docs

March 6, 2012 by Chaplain Gordon Klingenschmitt

HOT PETITION!  Ask Congress to impeach Justice Elena Kagan if she refuses to recuse herself from hearing the Obamacare case NFIB v. Sebelius.  Please select, sign, and WE WILL FAX your petition to all 535 members of Congress (saving you time!)  We’ve already sent 96,000 fax petitions.  Can you help us reach 100,000?

New lawsuit can force Kagan to recuse Obamacare, White House to release secret docs

Yet another public service lawfirm, Judicial Watch, has filed an important Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit to force the White House to release its secret documents, that prove Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan cannot remain unbiased when considering an Obamacare case in a few weeks.

The new lawsuit argues the Obama Administration continues to stonewall Congressional subpoenas for documents, and has now violated federal law by withholding public records to which public citizens are also entitled under the FOIA law.

“E-mails that previously were obtained by the organization suggest Kagan and her staff in the White House ‘may have participated in discussions pertaining to the legal defense of Obamacare,’ Judicial Watch told WND.com.

“Other records show then-Solicitor General Kagan commenting excitedly on the passage of Obamacare,” Judicial Watch reported.

“This is no time for the Obama administration to stonewall and obfuscate,” said Tom Fitton, the chief of Judicial Watch. “We hope the court will force the Obama administration to respond to our request in a manner consistent with federal law.”

He said, “The American people deserve to know how deeply involved Elena Kagan and her top deputies were in shaping the Obama administration’s legal defense of Obamacare. The integrity of the courts requires a full airing of those facts before she participates in ruling on a matter she may have helped prepare for litigation. There is more information at the Justice Department but clearly Eric Holder intends to run out the clock.”

Meanwhile the Supreme Court has ignored a motion to re-consider forcing Kagan’s recusal filed by our lawyer friend Larry Klayman of Freedom Watch, according to WND.com.

I leapt out in faith and spent $30,000 over 3 months on this campaign (but recovered only $18K), renting big email lists reaching millions of patriots (seriously I’m losing my shirt, so please donate here), but our emails have gone viral and we’ve already faxed 96,000 petitions to Washington DC.   We buried in fax paper all 535 Senators, Congressmen, (and the Supreme Court too) demanding the impeachment of Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan.  Let’s reach 100,000 today.  It’s a team effort, and I’m grateful for your help.

SELECT HERE TO SIGN PETITION, and we will instantly fax all 535 Congressmen and Senators demanding impeachment hearings if Justice Elena Kagan does not recuse herself from the Obamacare case NFIB v. Sebelius. (Saving you much time and postage!)

Breaking: Supreme Court rejects demand for Kagan to recuse Obamacare

CNN reports “The Supreme Court has turned aside a motion from a political advocacy group that sought to argue that Justice Elena Kagan should not participate in the upcoming blockbuster appeals over the constitutionality of health care reform [aka Obamacare.]

“The justices denied the request from Freedom Watch without comment [last month]. Kagan herself did not get involved in this particular motion.

“The court’s brief order all but assures that the newest justice will participate in the late March arguments and eventually rule on the cases’ merits. Similar calls for recusal from other groups have been directed at Justice Clarence Thomas.

“Larry Klayman, head of Freedom Watch, wanted to argue the recusal issue himself as part of the three days of public oral arguments scheduled for March 26-28. There, lawyers for the Obama administration and a coalition of 26 states and private groups will separately plead their case on the health care law’s legal limits.

“Klayman said that while the argument request was denied, he still thinks Kagan should pull out of the debate.  ‘The justices work for us, and the Supreme Court is the people’s court, not the justices’ court,’ he said. ‘I hope that they will sober up and do the right thing and disqualify Justice Kagan from sitting on the Obamacare case, as she has a textbook conflict of interest given her involvement in the drafting of, and supporting, the legislation, while she was an official of the Obama administration at the Department of Justice.'”

[Chaps comment:  Today’s ruling is yet another example of Washington corruption at the highest levels of the U.S. Supreme Court, as Justice Kagan [pictured right–>] flagrantly thumbs her nose at the law she swore to uphold.  Four U.S. Senators agree with me, saying:  “Federal law requires recusal from a case if a judicial officer of the United States ‘has served in governmental employment and in such capacity participated as counsel, adviser or material witness concerning the proceeding or expressed an opinion concerning the merits of the particular case or controversy.’ 28 U.S.C. § 455(b)(3). In addition, a federal judge must disqualify herself from participating in a matter if her ‘impartiality might reasonably be questioned.’ Id. at § 455(a). It appears that former Solicitor General Kagan’s participation in the Obama Administration’s defense of the PPACA may satisfy both requirements for recusal,” the Senators’ letter said.]

We must continue to demand Kagan’s impeachment, and full hearings on her corruption.

Chief Justice Roberts:  Stop Asking Kagan to Recuse Obamacare.

Your faxes have been noticed by the Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court.  After YOU helped fax over 83,000 petitions to Congress (with copies directly to the Supreme Court) demanding Justice Elena Kagan recuse herself from hearing the Obamacare case, Chief Justice Roberts came to Kagan’s aid by writing a letter defending the Court’s integrity.

Roberts wrote in his “end of year” report that we shouldn’t worry about Kagan’s bias, despite the fact she helped write, defend, and lobbied to pass Obamacare:

“I have complete confidence in the capability of my colleagues to determine when recusal is warranted,” Roberts wrote. “They are [Kagan is] jurists of exceptional integrity and experience whose character and fitness have been examined through a rigorous appointment and confirmation process.”

“The Supreme Court does not sit in judgment of one of its own members’ decision whether to recuse in the course of deciding a case.  [Roberts won’t rebuke Kagan.]  Indeed, if the Supreme Court reviewed those decisions, it would create an undesirable situation in which the court could affect the outcome of a case by selecting who among its members may participate.”

“If an appeals court or district court judge withdraws from a case, there is another federal judge who can serve in that recused judge’s place.  But the Supreme Court consists of nine members who always sit together, and if a justice withdraws from a case, the court must sit without its full membership.”

“A justice accordingly cannot withdraw from a case as a matter of convenience or simply to avoid controversy.  Rather, each justice has an obligation to the Court to be sure of the need to recuse before deciding to withdraw from a case.”

So Roberts won’t step in to tell Kagan to recuse herself.  What do you think?  I think we’re getting their attention.  If Roberts won’t oversee Kagan, the U.S. Congress must.

Should Justice Kagan be trusted to “not recuse” herself, or impeached by Congress?

SELECT HERE TO SIGN PETITION, and we will instantly fax all 535 Congressmen and Senators demanding impeachment hearings if Justice Elena Kagan does not recuse herself from the Obamacare case NFIB v. Sebelius. (Saving you much time and postage!)

Four Senators demand Kagan recuse Obamacare.  We demand impeachment.

After YOU helped fax thousands of petitions, four top-ranking Republican Senators agreed with us and demanded Justice Kagan recuse herself from the Obamacare case.  In a letter signed by Majority Leader McConnell (R-KY), Whip John Kyl (R-AZ), Ranking Judiciary Grassley (R-IA), and Senator Mike Lee (R-UT), all four rebuked President Obama’s Attorney General Eric Holder, who has obstructed justice and blocked Congressional investigation of Kagan’s bias in the Obamacare case.

“Federal law requires recusal from a case if a judicial officer of the United States ‘has served in governmental employment and in such capacity participated as counsel, adviser or material witness concerning the proceeding or expressed an opinion concerning the merits of the particular case or controversy.’ 28 U.S.C. § 455(b)(3). In addition, a federal judge must disqualify herself from participating in a matter if her ‘impartiality might reasonably be questioned.’ Id. at § 455(a). It appears that former Solicitor General Kagan’s participation in the Obama Administration’s defense of the PPACA may satisfy both requirements for recusal,” the letter said.  You can read the Senators’ full letter here.

Sadly A.G. Holder continues to stonewall Congressional investigations.  “Unfortunately, your Department has rejected all Congressional oversight requests for information about her role in the Obama Administration’s defense of this law [Obamacare].”  While Holder blocks any justice to help Obama, Kagan scored the touchdown by defending Obamacare, and now she acts as the “instant replay referee” to find no flags on her own play.

Her “impartiality” is obviously flawed, as the Senators point to a March 2009 email Kagan sent to DOJ Legal Adviser Larry Tribe concerning Obamacare:  Entitled, “Fingers and toes crossed today!” Kagan emails, “I hear they have the votes, Larry!! Simply amazing.”  [How impartial can she be when ruling on this law?]

Political analyist Dick Morris agrees:  “As Solicitor-General, Kagan was the point person for defending the constitutionality of federal law before the Supreme Court.  She was, in effect, the lawyer supporting the Health Care law. How can she now sit in judgment on it?” Morris has also delivered 19,000+ petitions to Congress, along with our 63,000+.

85 groups + 96,000 petitions demand Kagan recuse Obamacare.

I have amazing news to report.  We can stop Obamacare and many tax-funded abortions!

Now leaders of 85 groups represent millions of Americans (including me, Chaps, representing YOU) signed a joint letter to House Judiciary Chairman Lamar Smith (R-TX), as drafted by our dear friend Philip Jauregui, President of the Judicial Action Group, including a veritable “Who’s Who” of Christian and conservative activists, including Family Research Council, Christian Coalition, Eagle Forum, Concerned Women for America, and many tea party groups.  You can read our full letter and list of 85 groups here.

The new letter explains we have a “basis to question the impartiality of Justice Kagan if she were permitted to prepare the defense of a case as an advocate and then switch roles and judge the defense of that same case as a justice.” [Chaps’ comment: Imagine going to court, and suddenly the defense lawyer takes over as judge? How unfair and biased! ]

“Attorney General Holder has failed to comply with your repeated requests [to subpoena Kagan’s records] and has characterized your reasonable requests to determine the facts in this matter as ‘unseemly.’  We disagree, and believe that it would be ‘unseemly’ for the system of ‘checks and balances’ to fail to operate in this landmark matter.  Accordingly, we respectfully request that you immediately hold hearings to investigate the full extent to which Justice Elena Kagan was involved in preparing the legal defense of the PPACA during her former service as Solicitor General.”  [Chaps wants hearings, impeachment!]

Friends, we fought against the pro-abortion funding provisions of Obamacare by faxing over a million petitions to Congress.  We fought against Kagan’s appointment to the Supreme Court with nearly a quarter million petitions.  We helped persuade 26 state attorneys general to join the lawsuit NFIB v. Sebelius to defeat Obamacare in court.

We’re now joining the final battle at the Supreme Court of the United States, to defeat Obamacare permanently, but one biased Justice Elena Kagan could decide our fate.

I need 10 or 20 folks to please donate $500 or $1,000 extra this week, just to break even.   (If anybody thinks I’m getting rich here, they’re mistaken.)  Help us help America!

Let’s take one final stand against Obamacare.  Take action today…

SELECT HERE TO SIGN PETITION, and we will instantly fax all 535 Congressmen and Senators demanding impeachment hearings if Justice Elena Kagan does not recuse herself from the Obamacare case NFIB v. Sebelius. (Saving you much time and postage!)

Friends, our Supreme Court will soon decide if Obamacare and it’s pro-abortion tax-funding is Constitutional.  Let’s take a stand today, and demand Justice Kagan recuse herself, or face impeachment hearings.

God Bless you, in Jesus’ name,

Chaplain Gordon James Klingenschmitt

Chaplains risking 'treason'

February 14, 2012 by Chaplain Gordon Klingenschmitt

A former Navy chaplain who was forced out of the service for praying publicly in Jesus’ name while in uniform says the Obama administration is clearly trying to censor military chaplains who dare to speak out against the pro-abortion and pro-homosexual agenda.

The Obama White House opened a can of worms last week when it issued an edict requiring Catholic-affiliated agencies to provide medical coverage for employees’ contraceptives and abortions. The controversy moved to the military when Catholic Army chaplains were ordered not to read a letter telling parishioners that the Catholic Church “cannot and will not comply with this unjust law.”

Gordon Klingenschmitt, a former Navy chaplain who now runs The Pray In Jesus’ Name Project, further details how the mandate is affecting the military.

“The secretary of the Army said you have to line out some of the language, or else we’re going to charge the chaplains with sedition and treason for opposing the Obama administration,” he reports. “Can you believe this? They are actually threatening chaplains with court-martial if they dare to preach against sin in their own church.”

So Klingenschmitt is encouraging people of faith to contact their members of Congress and tell them to support the Military Religious Freedom Act (HR 3828) sponsored by Congressman Tim Huelskamp (R-Kansas), which would protect all members of the armed forces from having to compromise their religious and spiritual beliefs (see earlier story).

Regarding the Catholic Church and contraceptives, President Obama announced on Friday that religious employers will not have to cover birth control for their employees. Instead, he said, insurance companies will be the ones responsible for providing free contraception. That supposed “compromise” on the matter brought harsh criticism from conservatives across denominational and organizational lines.
