The AARP and American Medical Association supported H.R. 3692, the Affordable Health Care for America Act of 2009, but a careful analysis of the media coverage demonstrates that it was the U.S. Catholic Church that provided the winning margin. Yet, the liberal media are failing to raise the issue of the alleged separation of church and state.

Contrary to some media reports, the U.S. Catholics Bishops never opposed a national health care scheme. In fact, their main objection was to a provision for federal funding of abortion. Once that provision was eliminated, the Catholic Bishops embraced the bill.

Question: What do you call a Muslim who has Palestinian roots that commits an act of terrorism?

Answer: A Muslim Palestinian Terrorist

After this act of terrorism by a Palestinian Muslim, the American citizens turn to the President of the United States, as they did on 9/11.  How did our President react?  President Bush was "silent" for two minutes mentally preparing for what lay ahead.  Karen Dixon puts it in plain English below:

Karen: Update, I just added another video response to the comments on this video. I'm a US Veteran - Democrat - citizen who is mad! During the Presidential address on Nov. 5, 2009, President Obama gave a shout out to his friend, and continued talking about his Native American meeting instead of addressing the nation in the tragedy that took place at Fort Hood. His action appeared like he was at a roasting or awards ceremony. At 5 pm we needed a leader, not a politician.

Particularly in times of crisis and uncertainty, few in the conservative blogosphere have the insight as well as the perspective that Mark Steyn does.
A beacon for us is yesterday's Steyn post on National Review on line "Shooting Raises Fears For Sanity Of Entire Western World" here.

Political Correctness Run Amok in Our Thought and Talk

Columnist Steyn recalled his last December's post about the Bombay bombing "Silence=Acceptance: Rabbi Holtzberg was not murdered because of a territorial dispute over Kashmir or because of Bush's foreign policy"  - -

The international "left" led by the Chicago Cabal currently engaged in a full frontal assault on all American principles, values and individual rights, fear only one thing.... The U.S. Charters of Freedom! That's because the Charters of Freedom are the ONLY thing standing in the way of total Global Socialist control of the Unites States of America...

They fear only one group... The American patriots who are willing to stand and fight for the Charters of Freedom!

But they aren't too worried yet, and that's why no matter how many patriots protest on the steps of Washington DC offices, they march full speed ahead in their efforts to ram 'Cap and Trade,' socialized medicine, amnesty for illegals and global climate scams down the throats of US citizens.
