Dear American Jewish Community, By Netanyahu Playing Partisan Games with the GOP anti-Obama Hate Machine, he’s Just put Israel on the Wrong Side of History

Last updated on: March 12, 2015 at 5:34 pm By Frank Schaeffer

By allowing the Republicans to play dirty anti-Obama politics with Israel’s security, Netanyahu has done about as much as anyone could to play into the paranoid delusions of the extremist Muslims, Holocaust deniers, and anti-Semites everywhere. Netanyahu and the Boehner-enabled end-run around the American commander in chief might as well be advertised like this: A Great Day For Anti-Semites Everywhere! Speaker of the House and Prime Minister of Israel Conspire to Prove Delusional Paranoid Anti-Semites Right and Make it Look as if... Read more

CALLING ON ALL MEMBERS OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY TO WALK OUT OF CONGRESS WHEN NETANYAHU WALKS IN TO SPEAK: BOEHNER’S/NETANYAHU’S/ISRAEL’S INSULT TO AMERICA MUST BE ANSWERED

Last updated on: March 12, 2015 at 5:35 pm By Frank Schaeffer

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is to address a joint session of Congress in order to insult President Obama. Billionaire GOP donor, extremist Zionist Sheldon Adelson who cooked this bad idea up, Netanyahu and Boehner are the enemies of peace, of Jews of Israel and of America. With friends like these Israel needs no enemies. They seem bent on doing the impossible through their really bad idea to insult our president: They seem bent on turning all non-Republicans against Israel. Netanyahu and Boehner are turning...

HOME SCHOOL ABUSE “Dear Frank, I think there’s going to be an epidemic of homeschool abuse survivors in the next 10 – 20 years, if there isn’t one already…”

Huckabee On the USA: “It’s a humanistic, atheistic, even antagonistic toward Christian faith… Our basic, fundamental rights are being robbed from us”

Last updated on: March 12, 2015 at 5:35 pm By Frank Schaeffer

Mike Huckabee playing at Thomas Road Baptist Church in 2008 (courtesy Wikimedia Commons) According to David Edwards at Raw Story Mike Huckabee said on Thursday that if he was elected president then he would have “God’s blessing” to fight a so-called “secular theocracy” that had been imposed by atheists.

Pope Francis to Conservative anti-Contraception Catholics: Have SEX, BUT No More “breeding like rabbits!”

Last updated on: March 12, 2015 at 5:35 pm By Frank Schaeffer

According to the Religion News Service, Pope Francis he’s starting to chip away at the contraception ban. Ironic eh? Just as Wheaton College (a school that used to be evangelical) becomes anti-contraception, the Pope starts talking like evangelicals used to before they were hijacked by the loony Roman Catholic right. The Pope derided the idea that “in order to be good Catholics we have to be like rabbits” and produce litters of kids.” “No,” he told reporters on his flight... Read more
