Judge Jeanne Perro gives it straight to the Boston bombers and their family. Here is a family that fled their country, were welcomed with open arms in America, sucked off the taxpayers through housing assistance, food stamps and welfare, enjoyed free education for their terrorists sons and yet according to their mom, it's Americans fault. Terrorists' mom goes so far to point out that her eldest son was friendly to everyone - even Americans. Well how nice that the terrorist was "friendly" to people in the country where he was receiving benefits. Yet, in the end, he was so friendly that he blew up Americans, left 4 Americans dead, men, women and children maimed for life. And someone now wants to talk about the "rights" of these terrorists?

One of our forefathers had some comments about gun control

"Arms discourage and keep the invader and plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property... Horrid mischief would ensue were the law-abiding deprived of the use of them."

- Thomas Paine

It's easy for the news these days to get you down. Well, until someone reminds you that it is all temporal.

"While our world is shaking and crumbling, we need to realize that one thing will never change, and that is God. He is the same today as he was ten million years ago, and will be the same ten million years from today."

- Billy Graham

Charlie Daniels wrote a beautiful blog post yesterday that provides encouragement to those of us in despair for America.

First Mr. Daniels echos what many of us fear:

I fear the rampant apathy and lackadaisical work ethic of the entitlement society will become so deeply ingrained in the coming generations that the nanny state policies of this president and others like him who are likely to be elected will gradually drain the wealth and the will of the population until the well is bone dry and the confusion and anger of those who are suddenly left to fend for themselves will overrun the streets of this nation resulting in chaos and bloodshed.

But then Mr. Daniels reminds us who is really in charge and reminds Christians that we already know how this will all turn out.

This earth with all its awesome military might, pompous politicians, mega-rich magnates and all the evil the powers of darkness can bring to bear are no more than a grain of sand compared to the indescribable power of the One who created the planets and flung them out across endless space, He who can part the sea and make the sun stand still.

Read the whole blog post, it's beautiful!

"Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch.

Liberty is a well- armed lamb contesting the vote."


-Benjamin Frank

For unto us a Child is born,
unto us a Son is given,
and the government
shall be upon His shoulder;
and his name shall be called Wonderful,
Counsellor, the Mighty God,
the Everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace.
(Isaiah 9:6)

"The dead cannot cry out for justice; it is a duty of the living to do so for them."

Charlie Woods, father of fallen ex-seal Tyrone Woods, speaks with Megyn Kelly since Mr. Woods learned that the US President and Secretary of State left his son to die after his son disobeyed orders to rescue US citizens at the Benghazi Consulate.

I hope Mr. Woods feels the love and prayers of hundreds-of- thousands of American citizens who indeed prize his son's service and heroism.
