The HinzSight Report

The Michigan Court of Appeals has unanimously struck down the Reform Michigan Government Now (RMGN) ballot initiative that many conservatives believe was a Coup d'Etat to take over Michigan government by the Michigan Democratic Party.

Nick at Right Michigan has the Conservative response.

The court was responding to a challenge brought by Citizens Protecting Michigan's Constitution, a group opposing the ballot measure. "This ballot proposal has clearly been ruled unconstitutional," said Tom Shields, a spokesperson for that group.

The LATimes reported yesterday that Russian General Anatoly Nogovitsyn, who is the Russian Deputy Chief of General Staff, has admitted that Russia is setting up permanent bases in Georgia, with no intention of abiding by the withdrawal agreed upon with EU President Sarkozy last week.

Nogovitsyn told reporters that Russia would be setting up 18 permanent checkpoints, eight of which are in Georgian sovereign territory, with no plans for withdrawal.

"The president ordered us to stop where we were," he told reporters. "We are not pulling out and pulling back troops behind this administrative border into the territory of South Ossetia."

New York Time endorses The Strongest Tribe by refusing to review it

Bing West, an Assistant Secretary of Defense during the Reagan Administration, recently returned from his fifteenth visit to Iraq. He told John McCullough, of WJR Radio's Frank Beckmann show, that everything has changed since the Surge began.

Yes, in essence, Obama symbolizes a charming little stand-in who lip-synchs the words of someone else’s voice.

Post Under: President Obama In November

In perusing the web this morning, I came across this headline, Obama's Campaign Admits Obama is a Muslim!!!!! My first thought was that I had somehow missed an important news story. So, I clicked on the site.

There I learned that during David Axelrod's August 1 appearance on Good Morning America, during which he "did" admit that Sen Obama had brought up the issue of race with his comments about not looking like the other presidents on the dollar bill, he also admitted that Sen Obama is a Muslim.

According to the quote on that website, Axelrod said:

What has been widely reported throughout the media and the internet is:

Quite a difference there. If Axelrod had indeed gone on to say "...half black Kenyan. A Muslim who is also half Hawaiian Christian white-boy," that would have been a gaffe worthy of widespread coverage.

The article on that site went on to claim that the link to Good Morning America is no longer available, and that the last two pages of the transcript from that program have also been scrubbed from the ABC website. A cover up and a Mainstream Media Conspiracy. What could possibly be better for Conservatives who just KNOW that the MSM is in the tank for Obama.

The only trouble is: IT IS ALL A LIE!

Lessons We All Could Learn

I first became aware of Yoani Sánchez and her Generation Y several months ago from a quick blurb on one of the news channels. Sánchez is a an amazing young woman. She is a voice of freedom coming to us from Cuba, one of the most repressive Workers' Paradises in the world.

Since hearing about Sánchez I have attempted to contact her on several occasions to ask permission to reprint some of her columns in their entirety. I have never had a response. This is hardly surprising however, considering the difficulty this young woman has to surmount just to post her thoughts on the internet.

Her website, you see, is blocked in Cuba.

The Russian people today are being told by their Pravda redux that the Russian war in Georgia is all a product of Vice President Dick Cheney and his attempt to defeat Barrack Obama in November.

The Times of London is reporting that the Kremlin has "dusted off Cold War" rhetoric to blame the United States for the Russian invasion of South Osettia and Georgia. The Russian Army that was massed for weeks at the border was apparently put there by Dick Cheney.

Originally published in and introducing Gamecock’s DeVine Law

The greatest and most blessed Land east (and west) of the Garden of Eden has needed continual healings of varying degrees since its founding. We became the last best hope of man on Earth, the arsenal of Democracy and God-given Liberty’s Shining City on a Hill because we sought and received healings of our Land via a Judeo-Christian prescription:

2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

Dr. Richard Land, President of the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC), prescribed that Scriptural anecdote for what ails America recently as a guest speaker at the First Baptist Church in Charlotte.

Dr. Land is a frequent guest on Meet the Press and other prominent television programs and probably the best “public Evangelical face” save for Reverend Billy Graham, who best refutes the secular left’s false caricature of Christians as wanting to “impose our views” on America.

The fact is that Christians, and especially those of the Evangelical variety finally joined more politically active Catholics, only became politically active in large numbers when five or more lawyers on the U.S. Supreme Court began imposing their views via their re-written, non-ratified by We the People Constitution on them beginning in the 1960’s and especially after the early 1970’s ruling that struck down anti-abortion laws in most of the states.

In a Rose Garden Press Conference this morning, President Bush announced that he will be sending Secretary of State Condi Rice to France to speak with French President Nicholas Sarkozy and then on to Georgia to speak with that country's president, Mikheil Saakashvili.

The president spoke of the ceasefire hammered out by Sarkozy between Russia and Georgia. He pointed out that while Russian Vladimir Putin stressed that it was not the intent of Russia to topple the Georgian government, that their actions did not match their words.

The president announced that the US Military would be carrying humanitarian aid to the people of Georgia by airlift, and that the US Navy would be standing by to provide additional aid as necessary. The president expressed hope that Russia would withdraw from Georgian territory and honor the ceasefire.

The president's words were meant to inform the American people, to allay fears on the world stage, and to make a point to the Russian leadership.

Please allow me to translate:

The Democratic and the Republican candidates for President have both weighed in on the issue of the Russian attack on the tiny country of Georgia, and there is a clear contrast in their approach to the situation.

In a statement issued over the weekend, Sen Barrack Obama spoke of negotiations from a neutral body. Sen John McCain spoke of mobilizing NATO into forming a peace-keeping force. The McCain approach stressed action, while the Obama approach stressed negotiation.
