This is What Happens When You Makes Us Care
In Oregon, a baker got in trouble for not wanting to bake a cake for a gay union.
In New Mexico, a photographer likewise found herself on the wrong side of the law by not wanting to take pictures of a gay wedding.
In Colorado, a baker faces fines for not wanting to bake a cake for a gay wedding.
In each of those cases and the others that are out there, there was no proof that the business owners refused to serve gays. In fact, in more than one case they could show that they did, in fact, have gay customers.
But they did not want to provide goods or services to a gay wedding because of their religious beliefs. Instead of finding someone else, the gay couples involved ran off and complained to the government, which in each case is pushing the businesses.
In America, gay rights activists are making us care. . . . please click here for the rest of the post →

We all agree that Sen. Harry Reid must be dethroned. Even from a liberal perspective, he has completely destroyed the structure of the Senate by shutting down the open amendment process, thereby eradicating the most important difference between the upper house and the lower house of the legislative branch.
This year, we have the opportunity to vanquish Reid by defeating his liberal lieutenants in conservative states like Louisiana, Arkansas, North Carolina, South Dakota, and Alaska. However, if you think that our policy woes with Washington will change one iota if the current crop of Republicans lead the majority, you haven’t been paying attention. And if you buy into the bromide about not letting “purity tests” get in the way defeating Democrats, you are willingly blinding yourself to the reality that has played out over the past few years. . . . please click here for the rest of the post →
The Wrong Kind of Gay
There are local elections coming up in Washington, D.C. The Gay and Lesbian Activist Alliance has put out its ratings.
There are ten candidates for mayor. Nine of the ten returned the questionnaires to GLAA. Of the nine, only one of the candidates is gay.
It turns out that Bruce Majors, the only gay candidate running for mayor of Washington, D.C. also got the lowest score of all the candidates. . . . please click here for the rest of the post →
Ken Buck Wants Colorado to Choose a New Direction
Since the 2008 election, in which Mark Udall rode Barack Obama’s coattails all the way to the Senate, Colorado has had the unfortunate experience of having Udall represent the will of Washington back to those of us in Colorado, rather than represent the will of Coloradan’s to those in Washington. . . . please click here for the rest of the post →
The Burden of Truth
How are ObamaCare enrollments coming along? The correct answer is: nobody knows.
By this I mean no one who knows the answer with better than 75 percent accuracy is willing to say so in public. This week the Administration updated its official count to 3.3 million enrollments. This number is absolutely false, and everyone knows it. . . . please click here for the rest of the post →
