It is not surprising that abortion-on-demand advocates are clamoring over the latest effort to protect the right of conscience of health care providers, but the proposed regulation provides needed protection for health care providers without endangering patient health.   The United States Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) stated that the proposed regulation “would…

Senator McCain and Governor Palin should attend the Family Research Council’s Values Voter Summit this upcoming weekend. The event has featured many well respected speakers in the past including “Sean Hannity, Tony Snow, Dr. Bill Bennett, Newt Gingrich, Governors Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee, Senators Sam Brownback, Fred Thompson and Rick Santorum, Dr. Richard Land,…

A proposed regulationfrom the Department of Health and Human Services regarding health care workers’religious “rights” is already causing considerable controversy–and it should!  The Department placed the rule on displayAug. 21 for a 30-day public comment period. The comments will be reviewedbefore the Department puts forth a final regulation.   The regulation never should have been…

Next weekend, the far-right-of-center Family Research Council will convene (what else?) a far right conference in Washington DC.  They certainly want both McCain and Palin to show up.  Here’s the rub: will these candidates want to risk showing up at the conference?  This was the conference which, in the past, has held workshops in which…

Barry, I’m sure you really don’t want to go down the ‘experience’ road with this election.  Sarah Palin has a proven track record of success.  In his address to the Republican National Convention, former New York Mayor and presidential candidate Rudolph Giuliani said Sarah Palin “already has more executive experience” than Barack Obama and Joseph…

Governor Palin’s speech was seen by many observers, in pundit parlance, as a “homerun”.  Unknown a week ago, and after a pretty mediocre appearance with McCain last Friday, she gave a smart, snappy, unexpectedly direct speech which was partly done in “mom mode” and part in “attack dog” mode. The Republican delegates treated her with…

No matter if you are a Republican or a Democrat, no one can deny the fact that Sarah Palin, the Governor of Alaska and now the Republican Nominee for Vice President of the United States, gave a phenomenal speech at the Republican National Convention.  I was at the convention and felt the electricity in the…

I literally did see a rainbow over here in Ireland about the time an important case was being argued before the Supreme Court of Florida.  I did not find any leprechauns with or without pot of gold. However, here’s the prize as reported by Americans United’s Communications Department in a press release:   Americans United for Separation…

I’m sure we’ll debate evolution and intelligent design a great deal more as this blog continues.  I met a guy over in the “Emerald Isle” who posed a question more theological than legal, but I told him I’d blog in search of answers. I see that many of the right of center blogs are still…

It is unfortunate that Barry implies that Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin, and the millions of other Americans who believe that a creator designed human life, are anti-science while those who believe that human life randomly evolved from non-living chemicals through unguided, blind chance are “pro-science.”   Science is supposed to be a search for…
