Respect for Joe Lieberman

We are saddened to hear of the passing of Senator Joe Lieberman. While we did not always see eye to eye, we deeply respected his principled leadership, integrity, and tireless commitment to public service.

Once while in Washington DC with Vets for Freedom, Senators Lieberman, McCain and Graham were at a rally standing alongside this amazing group of veterans. While we’ve had differences of opinion with each one these men, there is no doubt that they supported the troops.

Senator Lieberman represented what would be nice to see in government once again, a member of Congress who could work through differences and “Do The Right Thing” for the country and not just a partisan lawmaker.

Our sincere condolences to his family. His legacy will not be forgotten.

Demand justice for the 5 babies slaughtered

Paul, I’ve been doing pro-life work for over 15 years, and the recent news out of D.C. has broken me all over again. 

After seeing an image of one of the five babies – a beautiful baby boy – nearly full-term, naked and dumped in a bucket as “medical waste,” possibly born alive and left to die… it is hard to comprehend the cruelty he endured. I keep thinking of my own two sons, especially my youngest, born just a few months ago. 

The pain is devastating. The abortionist responsible for their deaths is still at large and must be brought to justice to save future children. 

If you didn’t see my email last Friday or haven’t been aware otherwise… I’m referencing #JusticeForTheFive.  

The mangled bodies of babies were found by pro-life activists in Washington, D.C., labeled as “medical waste.”   

Update for you: The D.C. government is still refusing to take action to investigate the killing of these five innocent babies, some of whom may have been murdered in violation of state and federal law. Their inaction is inexcusable.  

We must do everything in our power to obtain #JusticeForTheFive and prevent abortionist Cesare Santangelo from killing more children. Crimes against children like these cannot be allowed to stand in our country.  

How you can help right now: Contact D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser to demand an autopsy and investigation into the killing of these five children: (202) 727-2643 

Here are some talking points for you:

The Medical Examiner is currently in possession of the bodies of five children who may have been killed through illegal abortion. 

The Medical Examiner must perform a full autopsy and make his thorough report known so the public can understand what happened to these children. 

Doctors who have seen pictures of these kids conclude that there may have been violations of the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act and the Born Alive Infant Protection Act. If true, these are serious federal crimes. 

Please ensure that after a full investigation of how these children died and if the abortionists violated federal laws, the babies be laid to rest with dignity and given a proper burial. 

Paul, your immediate action could make all the difference. 

The organization Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising (PAAU) confirmed in a press conference today that the bodies of the five infants were recovered from Curtis Bay Medical Waste Services outside Cesare Santangelo’s abortion facility in D.C. on March 25th when a driver gave the activists a box of aborted children set to be burned as medical waste. 

The bodies of murdered children are not medical waste. 

But it gets even worse… Curtis Bay’s website says it incinerates biomedical waste to turn it into “useful energy.”  

It’s absolutely horrifying to realize that precious babies are being killed and then burned and turned into electricity or other energy sources for homes and businesses. Every American must know these devastating actions are happening so we can wake up and end this real-life horror story.  We CANNOT let our country become a place where infanticide becomes normalized and where “doctors” can kill with impunity. 

We must work urgently to end abortion and make all violence against any innocent child, whether born or preborn, prohibited by law and firmly rejected by our culture.  

These five children deserve our collective mourning, they deserve swift justice, and they deserve a proper burial. 

Please take swift action by contacting D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser so that justice can be served and future children can be spared this brutality. Use the talking points above and call this number: (202) 727-2643 

Paul, your activism right now is critical. These precious children deserve justice, and the attention being given to them right now provides the opportunity to raise awareness to EVERY preborn baby in danger of brutal death by abortion or infanticide. 

We have no time to lose.

Thank you for joining us in this important, life-saving work. 

For life,

Breaking News: Comedy Legend Tim Conway Passes Away

 

For those of us who grew up in the 60’s and 70’s, Tim Conway is a comedy legend. Amy and I continue to watch and love old episodes of “The Carol Burnett Show”, and especially love the ones that Tim appeared in.

It was so funny to see Tim make his fellow actors laugh when they should have been in character during a skit. Harvey Korman could hardly keep a straight face in nearly every scene they were involved in on the iconic Carol Burnett show.

While the character Mr. Tudball was among our favorite characters, it was the “Oldest Man” that topped them all. Watch this short video clip of Tim Conway as the Oldest Man.

Amy and I are saddened by the death of one of our all-time favorites, and our prayers go out to his family, friends, and fans. May Tim Conway’s memory live forever, and what a blessing it is to still be able to watch him performing his craft.

Read the announcement of Tim Conway’s passing below this picture of Tim and Harvey.

Comedy legend Tim Conway, star of ‘The Carol Burnett Show,’ dead at 85

Tim Conway, the Golden Globe Award-winning actor who embodied several comical characters on “The Carol Burnett Show” including the Oldest Man and Mr. Tudball has died at age 85.

Conway died Tuesday morning after a long illness in Los Angeles, according to his rep Howard Bragman. His daughter, Kelly, told Fox News on Tuesday her father is “at peace now.”

“The love he gave us, and the laughter he gave the world will never be replaced, but will be remembered forever,” Kelly told us. “He is at peace now but I will miss him every second of every day until we meet again in heaven.

“We knew he would have to leave us someday, but that day came too soon. When he used to hear the song ‘Angel Flying Too Close to the Ground’ he would say, ‘I want that played at my funeral.'”

Conway’s longtime friend and fellow star Carol Burnett told Fox News, “I’m heartbroken. He was one in a million, not only as a brilliant comedian but as a loving human being. I cherish the times we had together both on the screen and off. He’ll be in my heart forever.

Holy Week – Good Friday

 Trial, Crucifixion, Death, and Burial on Good Friday

Good Friday is the most difficult day of Passion Week. Christ’s journey turned treacherous and acutely painful in these final hours leading to his death.

According to Scripture, Judas Iscariot, the disciple who had betrayed Jesus, was overcome with remorse and hanged himself early Friday morning.

Meanwhile, before the third hour (9 a.m.), Jesus endured the shame of false accusations, condemnation, mockery, beatings, and abandonment. After multiple unlawful trials, he was sentenced to death by crucifixion, one of the most horrible and disgraceful methods of capital punishment known at the time.

 

Before Christ was led away, soldiers spit on him, tormented and mocked him, and pierced him with a crown of thorns. Then Jesus carried his own cross to Calvary where, again, he was mocked and insulted as Roman soldiers nailed him to the wooden cross.

 

Jesus spoke seven final statements from the cross. His first words were, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” (Luke 23:34, NIV). His last words were, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.” (Luke 23:46, NIV)

Then, about the ninth hour (3 p.m.), Jesus breathed his last breath and died.

 

By 6 p.m. Friday evening, Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea took Jesus’ body down from the cross and lay it in a tomb.

 

Friday’s events are recorded in Matthew 27:1-62, Mark 15:1-47, Luke 22:63-23:56, and John 18:28-19:37.
