DREAM Act cloture fails, 55-41 « Hot Air
Image via Wikipedia
DREAM Act cloture fails, 55-41 « Hot Air Thank God we got this one. I now no longer have a knot in my chest that made me feel like I was having a heart attack. If an ECG had been done on me earlier this morning before the vote it probably would have looked like this picture! Let's hope for a better legislative year in 2011. I don't think my poor heart can take another one like 2010. As for DADT, I am no fan of the repeal but it is a done deal now. It is time to sort out once and for all if gays will be able to serve openly and successfully in the military. Many of our finest troops are gay and they deserve a chance. But if this fails the damage to the military will be immeasurable. I hope our leaders realize this and are prepared to shoulder the consequences.

U.S. flight crew held by foreign authorities for 'insulting' Chavez
U.S. flight crew held by foreign authorities for 'insulting' Chavez Wow! Be careful what you say in foreign countries. Be sure you know and obey the laws, customs and courtesies of any country you visit. This would have been funny if it hadn't had such serious consequences. Venezuelan jails are probably not as nice as American jails either. Thankfully this crew did not come to any harm but it did cost the airlines.
It does make one appreciate the freedom of speech we have in our country. Think of how many people would be in jail right now just for calling the President crazy!

Food Safety Bill Heads Back To House Following Legislative Gaffe Personal Liberty Digest OOPS! So much for that trick! I am surprised they even paid attention to the Constitution at all. Do you think the House will change their minds about the enormous government control over our food supply once this bill is passed? I don't think so either. But we now have a chance to have our say again. Contact your house reps today and make your feelings known! Related articles

JPMorgan Chase Bank has a change of heart regarding Christmas Tree in Southlake - Fort Worth Christianity & Culture | Examiner.com
Image via Wikipedia
JPMorgan Chase Bank has a change of heart regarding Christmas Tree in Southlake - Fort Worth Christianity & Culture Examiner.com A follow up article to the JP Morgan-Chase Bank Christmas Tree fiasco. Looks like Chase is one bank that is learning about what happens when Christians stand up for their symbols and beliefs. I hope Christians take heart from this that we can make a difference when we stand up for our values and beliefs. We don't have to give in to other cultures and belief systems at the expense of our own. Now is the time more than ever for Christians in America and all over the world to decide what they believe, why they believe it and be willing to stand firm!Related articles

Chase Bank Orders Tree Removed - War On Christmas - Fox Nation
Image via Wikipedia
Orders Tree Removed - War On Christmas - Fox Nation A Chase Bank branch was ordered to remove a Christmas tree that had been donated by a local business patron, Antonio Morales of Bellagio Salon. The tree was ordered removed on the grounds that it might be offensive. Once people started to complain, the bank officials changed their story. Apparently they notified Mr. Morales that they would like to have the tree back but wanted to pay for it as it was bank policy not to accept gifts. He said no because it is his policy to donate trees. He donated the tree elsewhere. Kudos to Mr. Morales for keeping the spirit of Christmas! As for JP Morgan and Chase Bank, you just might be getting a very ugly Christmas present this year--the loss of many Christian customers who are fighting back in the war on Christmas.One of the commenters included Mr Morales' business address and suggested readers send Christmas cards thanking him for his gift and for keeping the spirit of Christmas. I think this is a great idea! Let's show him our support! Here is his address:
Antonio Morales
Bellagio Salon
521 W. Southlake Blvd.
Southlake, TX 76092
