A Faith Based Prison A Christian faith based prison is awaiting state approval in Wakita, Oklahoma. This prison will house inmates serving their final 12 to 24 months in the system. A church group will be working with them and their families. Inmates will be taught how to become citizens again. Individuals from the church group will continue to mentor inmates in their ex-convict status. Read more here.
The End Benefits For a Man Given Domestic Chores and Activities Growing Up For a long time I worked in the same place with a male who was a part of the custodial department. He said because he cleaned for a living, he did not do housework at home. He had daughters and a son. He always defended not giving his son any way near the amount of household chores that were given to his daughters. I wonder what he would say about this tribute from Charles Martel to being assigned domestic chores and taught domestic activities while growing up!
Thoughts on the Late Ted Kennedy Sen. Kennedy was highly respected by people around me despite Chappaquiddick. One of my late aunts loved the Kennedy family and always thought Ted Kennedy would make a great president. But after Chappaquiddick (which happen a few days after I turned 18) during my Democrat years, Mary Jo Kopechne always came to mind whenever Ted Kennedy came up in the news.
I am seeing far more non tributes to Sen. Ted Kennedy than respectful tributes. Coming from a very wealthy family, Sen. Kennedy never had to worry about money and paying bills. I remember reading an article on his first wife Joan. She said that the Kennedy wealth allowed him to donate his senate salary to charity. Say what you want, you have to admit he was a tireless fighter for liberal causes. A viewer comment read on Bill O'Reilly's program said that he wished there were more conservatives in Congress with the fighting spirit of Sen. Kennedy.
Rifqa Bary Are you continuing to pray for 17 years old Rifqa Bary (She prefers not to use her first name Fathima)? Please keep her in your prayers. Her dependency hearing is on Sept 3rd. She must not be sent home to her father. Please check out the Atlas Shrugs blog for posts dealing with Rifqa Bary like this one.
She is now an apostate to Islam for converting to Christianity. Rifqa Bary says that Jesus Christ is her Savior. The Quran calls for the killing of apostates and she says her father must prove he loves Islam over her. I implore you to email the Florida Governor at charlie.crist@myflorida.com on behalf of Rifqa Bary. She needs to be emancipated from her parents.

Zo is now with Pajamas Media exclusively. They do not offer an embedding code for their free videos. Just click on the image (a video promo will appear first for a few seconds) to hear Zo on human rights as they relate to Iran in comparison to the United States.
We Americans really take our freedoms for granted! Zo also takes human rights further with current leadership attitudes toward the unborn and universal healthcare. Zo is so good. He hits the nail on the head every time. Just click on the Zonation image to view the video.
Zo just knows how to take it to the liberals. He hits the "it's okay for liberals to speak out on their positions and get paid for it, but not conservative people (especially concerning people of color). Conservative people get accused of being sellouts and opportunists. Well Zo sets them straight.

The Freedom From Religion organization is suing to stop the National Day of Prayer. The anti Christian/athiests groups are coming out of the woodwork. Go here for the "Save the National Day of Payer" site and view the video. Please sign the petition; I did.
Here is Vietnam veteran, Charles Ward of Real American Stories on war and freedom. Remember according to the origninal DHS report, he falls into being more of a threat to this country than foreign Al Quaeda type Muslim extremists.
Rev. Wayne Perryman's post at the FMJ blog (Freedom Magazine Journal blog, which is published by Facebook friend Eric M. Wallace, PHD) on Pres. Obama's controversial apologies and his denial of this country not being a Christian Nation.
If this was still going on in my neck of the woods, I would have to find some way to move.
