McConnell on Troop Funding

from: Blue Grass, Red State :

"Frankly, I'm baffled by the congressional Democrats' position in the whole troop-funding debate," he said. "Earlier in the year, they said that sending more troops to Iraq would lead to failure, then they approved the funds anyway. Now they say things are going well, and they want to cut off the funds that are needed to finish the job." more from Blue Grass, Red State

New Energy Bill Will cost Kentuckians more...


"CNN is carrying a story about an energy bill being pushed by liberals in the Senate. The bill would require states to increase the share of energy from "renewable" sources like wind and water.The problem with the bill is that while Western states have enormous capacity to produce renewable energy, Southeastern states don't. And artificially creating that capacity in the short term would require huge investments by our utilities. They'd then pass those development costs onto Kentucky families in the form of higher electric bills. That's the last thing the Commonwealth needs....." more from TeamMitch Blog

Anne Northup to chair Giuliani Kentucky Campaign

from On the Right:
"The Rudy Giuliani Presidential Committee today announced that former Kentucky Congresswoman Anne Northup has endorsed Mayor Giuliani for President. Northup will serve as Rudy’s Kentucky State Chair.

The Golded Compass Fraud

Golden Compass Movie, promotes atheism & is anti-religious...according to
"But buyer beware: Narnia it’s not. It’s the anti-Narnia. Instead of a Christian allegory, it’s an anti-Christian allegory. The author of The Golden Compass, Philip Pullman, is an atheist who despises C. S. Lewis and his much-beloved Narnia series. “I thought they were loathsome,” he said of those books, “full of bullying and sneering, propaganda, basically, on behalf of a religion whose main creed seemed to be to despise and hate people unlike yourself.”....from Mr. Brent Bozell at the Culture & Media Institute
"The media have played happily along in disguising Pullman’s religion-bashing. On NBC’s Today, weatherman Al Roker delighted in making The Golden Compass the fall book selection of “Al’s Book Club for Kids.” Pullman appeared on NBC to deny that he was really promoting atheism. He touted letting the reader decide what the author intended, in a “democracy of reading.” The closest he came to atheism was saying the book championed “open-minded intellectual curiosity.” If that sounds like a transparent dodge, it certainly was. He told the students asking questions to think of the Taliban in Afghanistan. But the menace in Pullman’s trilogy isn’t called the Caliphate, and its hideous monsters aren’t mullahs"
