5 hrs ago from  Breitbart Christianity   Religion Duck Dynasty Star: "This Is the Greatest Nation on Earth" As Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson travels the U.S. speaking on college campuses and to churches, a common refrain is that "this is the greatest nation on earth." Robertson also name checks some of his American heroes, especially "George Washington, John Adams, and Thomas Jefferson."  As the Daily Tribune reported, when Robertson spoke at Northeast Texas Community College he spoke of Washington as the "father of [our] country," and he quoted Adams as saying: "Statesman, my dear sir, may plan and speculate politically, but it is religion and morality alone which can establish the principles from which freedom can securely stand."  In quoting Adams, Robertson said he had paraphrased him a bit, but he made sure to tell his audience that when Adams referenced "religion" he meant "Christianity."

 SPEAKER.GOV 2 Minutes Ago President Obama Still Can't Keep the Facts Straight on Benghazi by  Brendan Buck One would think that after it was  reported  the administration purposefully misled the public about what happened in Benghazi, President Obama would have his facts straight by now.  Not even close.  Questioned at an abbreviated press conference today about his administration's public explanation of last year's terrorist attack in Libya, the president offered a response that doesn't jibe with the facts.  Rather than getting some candor from the president today, the American people heard only a number of baseless claims that require fact checking.   CLAIM: "The emails that you allude to were provided by us to congressional committees.  They reviewed them several months ago – concluded that in fact, there was nothing afoul in terms of the process that we had used." – President Obama (Press Conference, 5/13/13) REALITY: In fa...

 WND.COM 2 Hours Ago Terrorist super-axis to strike within U.S. by  Reza Kahlili Text smaller Text bigger Iran has given the go-ahead to operatives of three terrorist groups who have infiltrated the United States to carry out their missions, including what is expected to be a Mumbai-style attack on a hotel where innocent bystanders would be killed, WND has learned. A full report with many details of the missions has been passed on to U.S. officials and to a congressional intelligence committee. Three targets have been chosen within America for imminent attack and the terror teams have now cut communications with the operational center in Iran, a sign that they are moving ahead with the attacks, according to a high-level intelligence officer within the Islamic regime. The regime believes that if even one of the attacks occurs, the operation would be a success and that it won't be traced back to Iran due to the nationalities of the operators, he...

Monday, May 13, 2013 "The idea that this Tea Party targeting by the IRS is something somebody just discovered and only recently learned about is silly.  This was known years ago.  In fact, the IRS commissioner Lois Lerner has admitted that all this was going on as far back as 2011.

 AMMOLAND.COM 8 Hours Ago Open Letter to Governor Christie - Veto Gun Control Bills Letters to the AmmoLand Editor: Got something on your mind? Let us know and you can see it here. Trenton, NJ - -( Ammoland.com )- Dear Governor Christie: PLEASE VETO the gun control bills that the NJ Senate is planning to pass this Monday. These bills represent the biggest rush to judgement ever put together by a legislative body. If you allow these things to go through you will get worse press than what Cuomo got in NY for their rushed mess. You will look like a bigger fool than Nancy Pelosi as you will have approved something without fully knowing what is in the bills. These things are written with contradictions in them and violate our rights. Just take a look at the new requirements for Firearms ID's and purchase permits. There is language in there that you must have an ID card and a pistol purchase permit to purchase ammunition, why would you need a permit to buy a handgun to only purchase ammu...

 NRAILA.ORG 9 Hours Ago Colorado: 2013 Session Adjourns After Historic Assault on Your Constitutional Rights Colorado's 69th General Assembly adjourned last Wednesday after a historic legislative session.  Unfortunately, the historic actions by majorities in both legislative chambers and Governor John Hickenlooper (D) will severely punish responsible gun owners and sportsmen in the Centennial State. Anti-gun legislators championed the passage of the most onerous and restrictive legislation in Colorado's history, and Governor Hickenlooper didn't even blink when he signed away your rights .  Because of these misguided and arbitrary efforts, the following laws take effect on July 1: Unless possessed before July 1, all magazines with a capacity of greater than fifteen rounds and all magazines with a removable floor plate will be illegal. All firearm purchases will be subject to an additional fee ("gun tax") to fund the duplicative and failing Colorado B...
