Recently, when it serves him well, the president has resorted to beating on Christians with ridiculously out-of-context scripture references. Well, Mr. Obama, I have one for you. “Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet...

A Different Rulebook
Monday, Mar 23, 2015

Another week of news cycle finger-pointing goes both ways. The left calls the right hypocrites. The right calls the left hypocrites. Then comes the “I know you are but what am I?” line. Do you feel like you’re back in high school with all of the drama? I took a parenting class years ago where the...

The Real JV Team
Monday, Feb 2, 2015

Talk about a “haunting comment.” This will go down as one of President Obama’s all-time. Can you imagine how thick the book of “Obama’s Greatest Faux Paus” will be? Or how many volumes? Do I need to list them all, or do we have them memorized as some of us do the Pledge of Allegiance? (Notice...
