A special panel of federal judges has tentatively ruled that California must release tens of thousands of inmates to relieve overcrowding.
The judges say no other solution will improve conditions so poor that inmates die regularly of suicides or lack of proper care.
They say the state can cut the population of its 33 adult prisons through changes in parole and other policies without endangering public safety." Visit

Washington Times - Taxes trip up another Obama nominee
Washington Times - Taxes trip up another Obama nominee: "Labor Secretary-designate Hilda L. Solis on Thursday became the fourth senior administration nominee in a month to see their Senate confirmation slowed or scuttled over problems with their taxes.
A Senate committee abruptly canceled a confirmation vote on Ms. Solis after news reports that her husband, Sam Sayyad, had 15 outstanding state and county tax liens placed on his Los Angeles auto repair shop."

Washington Times - CBO: Obama stimulus harmful over long haul
"President Obama's economic recovery package will actually hurt the economy more in the long run than if he were to do nothing, the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office said Wednesday.
CBO, the official scorekeepers for legislation, said the House and Senate bills will help in the short term but result in so much government debt that within a few years they would crowd out private investment, actually leading to a lower Gross Domestic Product over the next 10 years than if the government had done nothing."

The Employee Intimidation Act -Grove City CollegeCenter for Vision and Values
The Obama administration will make every effort to pass a key piece of pro-union legislation. The bill has a misleading label: The Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA). In the interest of truth in advertising, the bill should be called, “The Employee Intimidation Act.” Why? Because one of the features of the EFCA, should it become law, would be to do away with traditional secret-ballot elections which are now used to determine whether or not employees in an enterprise want to be represented by a union" Visit:Grove City College - The Center for Vision and Values:

"Democrats may have eliminated provisions on birth control and sod for the National Mall in the 'job stimulus' -- but buried on page 147 of the bill is stimulation for prevention of sexually transmitted diseases!
The House Democrats' bill includes $335 million for sexually transmitted disease education and prevention programs at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.
In the past, the CDC has used STD education funding for programs that many Members of Congress find objectionable and arguably unrelated to a mission of economic stimulus [such as funding events called 'Booty Call' and 'Great Sex' put on by an organization that received $698,000 in government funds.]" Visit:

Hill Republican: Stimulus aids illegal immigrants
"WASHINGTON (AP) - The $800 billion-plus economic stimulus measure making its way through Congress could steer government checks to illegal immigrants, a top Republican congressional official asserted Thursday.
The legislation, which would send tax credits of $500 per worker and $1,000 per couple, expressly disqualifies nonresident aliens, but it would allow people who don't have Social Security numbers to be eligible for the checks." Visit:

Faith still at core of Warner's success
Faith still at core of Warner's success: "'If you ever really want to do a story about who I am, God's got to be at the center of it. Every time I hear a piece or read a story that doesn't have that, they're missing the whole lesson of who I am.' - Kurt Warner
Warner, who leads the Arizona Cardinals to the Superbowl Feb. 1st. discussed the role of his Christian faith in a January 9th article in the Arizona Republic. "During a visit to The Oprah Winfrey Show, Warner "basically had three sentences to say, so, in the middle one, I made sure I mentioned my faith, because how could they cut it out?" he said. "I went to watch the show on replay . . . and they cut it out!" Visit:
Faith still at core of Warner's success:(Editor's note: It seems God has placed Warner on a larger stage than the Oprah show!)

"The crowd packed on the west side of the Capitol grounds serenaded President Bush in mocking fashion when he took to the inaugural stage alongside Vice President Dick Cheney.
'Nah nah nah nah, hey hey, good-bye,' a section of the crowd chanted.
The crowd packed immediately below the podium received Bush in stony silence when he took his seat on the stage surrounding the podium" Visit:

"Card Check is the nickname for a legislative initiative that would remove from workers the right to a secret ballot when voting on whether or not to form a labor union at their place of employment. Currently, workers cast their ballots in secret. The rub here is that most of them vote against the unions, so the big labor bosses want everyone's vote to be cast in public by checking yes or no on a card and then signing their name. That of course opens the door for a wide range of intimidation and thuggery. Thus, it certainly will result in more shops voting to unionize, reversing a decades-long decline in union membership."

College OTR: Tim Tebow's John 3:16 Eye Black Causes an Unholy Controversy
Tim Tebow passed for 231 yards and ran for 109 more as his Florida Gators defeated Oklahoma 24-14 in the college football national title game on January 8. As the game's Most Valuable Player, he thanked his "Savior, Jesus Christ" while the Bible verse "John 3:16" was prominently displayed in white within his eyeblack. Tebow stated, "For me, everyday includes four things, "God, family, academics and football,in that order."
What has this to do with pro-life? Last year when Tebow won the Heisman Trophy, college football's highest honor, LifeSiteNews.com ran a story about his parents Bob and Pam Tebow. Mom Pam was apparently advised to have an abortion as medications she needed to treat amoebic dysentery would result in "irreversable damage" to her unborn child, Tim. 2007 article, "Mother of Heisman Trophy winner, Tim Tebow rejected abortion."
The following site contains the photo of Tebow and John 3:16 as well as a photo of Tim Tebow on a mission trip. Numerous comments follow the article.
"Many view Florida quarterback Tim Tebow as God, but apparently he doesn’t share that view. The son of missionaries and a devout Christian, Tebow often looks for ways to spread his faith. The most recent way was at the BCS championship game, where he wrote “John 3:16” on his eye black." Visit:
