My report from the Church Lady convention
I went to the Center For Arizona Policy Faith in Action Tour, featuring Dr. Del Tackett yesterday morning. I stayed through most of it and took some notes. Let me start by saying that the “non-denominational Bethany Bible Church is enormous. It’s a large campus with several buildings, including the spacious auditorium where the Tour [...]
Trent Franks wants to ban divorce and stop infertile people from getting married!
No, he doesn’t. But the creepy weird fetus fethishist dude who, inexplicably, is a member of Congress does think marriage is a “special area of the law that says we’re going to respect traditional marriage of a man and a woman because that is the launching pad of the next generation. Let’s face it; we [...]
Well, well, well, what have we here?

Before [...]

Yes, of course. Engaged citizens make for good governments. That’s the central idea behind the ninth annual Goldwater Institute Legislative Report Card, which takes into account 375 votes during the first session of Arizona’s fiftieth legislature. The result is a citizen-friendly tool for evaluating legislators’ votes against a simple, important standard: their impact on liberty. [...]
Let me help the Center for Arizona Policy define marriage.
It’s very important that I do this because I fear that they may be missing an important consideration in their quest to promote the sanctity of marriage in Arizona. The effort to redefine marriage to include same-sex couples will have an unprecedented effect on religious freedom. Those who don’t believe that don’t understand the nature [...]
