Backlash To Ryan Deal Grows

Is the Ryan-Murray budget deal going to die in the Senate? It’s entirely possible. The budget deal gets $6 billion of its “savings” by implementing cuts in military retirees’ pensions. Republican senators are not happy, and more of them are announcing that, because of the cuts, they will vote “No.” Veterans of Foreign Wars has come out strongly against the provision.

Democrats have a clear majority in the Senate, and most of them are for the deal. But if too many jump ship the legislation would require some Republican votes. Whatever happens tomorrow, the deal is unlikely to be a plus for Rep. Paul Ryan if he decides to compete in the 2016 GOP presidential campaign.

Here Comes Polygamy

We said it would happen and it has. Late on Friday a Federal District Court in Salt Lake City struck down a sizeable portion of Utah’s law that prohibits polygamy. The judge cited the same legal theories that have been used by the homosexual rights movement to weaken and attack the legal consensus that marriage is one man and one woman. The prohibition against incest will be the next assault of the revolution being forced on us by the cultural left led by Hollywood and the political left led by Barack Obama.

Over a decade ago, Dr. James Dobson and I predicted this outcome in the book we coauthored, Children at Risk. We were quickly labeled as fear mongering extremists. I will stick close to my phone waiting for apologies from those who attacked us.

If this breakdown in moral and social norms continues, it won’t matter what our marginal tax cuts are or the size of the budget deficit. Great nations don’t fall from only economic stresses. America’s leftist elites want to rip our nation away from Judeo-Christian values. If they succeed our “shining city on a hill” will just be another brothel.

I know this is a busy time of year, but the response to this morning’s appeal was so low we initially suspected we had a computer glitch. I pray that is not an indication that pro-family, pro-life conservatives like you have given up.

Some of you may feel exhausted after a grueling campaign. I know I do. But nothing ever gets better when good folks give up!

The good fight for family, faith and freedom continues. And we must fight harder than ever before!

Please let me know that you are still standing with us in this struggle. (And you can beat the taxman at the same time!)

Thank you, my friends!
