Saturday Shorts – 8-31-13

Random links of interest, concern or curiosity from the past week or so, that deserve at least a SHORT mention:

 
Year Five of Obama’s Foreign Policy Ineptitude ~ The Price of Appeasement and Tolerance in the Middle East ~ from Mark Alexander at the Patriot Post. Strange that our Nobel Peace Prize winning president has still not managed to bring about world peace in our time…
Although he is diligently working to eliminate the homeland threat of Tea Party “extremism” ~
 
Defense Department guide calls Founding Fathers ‘extremist’ ~

Under a section titled “extremist ideologies,” the document states, “In U.S. history, there are many examples of extremist ideologies and movements. The colonists who sought to free themselves from British rule and the Confederate states who sought to secede from the Northern states are just two examples.”

Oddly enough;

Besides a brief reference to 9/11 and another to the Sudanese civil war, the guide makes no mention of Islamic extremism.

Totalitarians of every variety must always rewrite history if they are to succeed in their ambitions.
 
Bring a Bible in your ‘Bug-out’ Bag ~ Especially if you’re one of those “extremists” that DoD is targeting ~

God, and only God, is both our Creator and our Salvation.
Obama is a politician, and a self-seeking Marxist one at that.

 
An American Satyricon ~ Excellent (as always) commentary on our morally bankrupt culture and its parallels with Rome, from Victor Davis Hanson.
 
Troubling Trends ~ The kids are heading back to school but what will they be learning this year? World Magazine looks at the latest developments in public school indoctrination; transgender politics, Darwinian groupthink, and hostility to Christianity.
Here’s more ~ Truth in American Education. Parents beware.
 
EVIL ON THE RISE ~ burning churches in Egypt ~

Bombing crosses in Oregon ~ Vietnam Veterans Memorial Damaged by Bomb Blast
