Mexico Supreme Court Allows States to legislate that "life begins at conception".

Anti-abortion parties are seeing this as a win for the "right to life" campaign. The reality is -- at least the way the BBC is presenting it -- that the decision was based on the Court upholding the right of Mexican States to make their own laws on matters that are not regulated by the national government. But still, God has a myriad of ways He arranges for His Truth and Laws to impact us, and especially the lives of the children being conceived.

Number of Illegal Border Crossings Grows in Canada.

Great, I no longer have to drive down to Arizona-Mexico border to see armed Border guards on ATV's chasing illegals. Soon, I'll be able to catch the action on my next trip to Vancouver.

What I can't figure out is whether the increase in illegal immigration to the Great White North is due to:
a. They really prefer Canada and aren't willing to stay in the U.S. when they get in there illegally, or
b. The Americans are doing such a good job of chasing them, that they get confused and head north, or
c. The Canadians are doing such a bad job of keeping Canada's border safe, or
d. They still think the great Yukon Gold Rush is still paying off big dividends.


If Obama has his way, soon these won't be 'Mexicans' we'll be trying to stop, it will be 'American citizens who were born in Mexico' or maybe just good old American citizens who will do anything to escape a sinking ship.

But for now, let's get serious about Canada's illegal border crossings before they grow to the point we can't afford to stop them.

A Monumental Example of How Drugs Can Affect a Nation's Mind

As I read this account from the BBC this morning, I realized how trapped the world has become by its own making.  Here was a large protest against, of all things -- "the government's war on drugs" -- something that you would think all would welcome.  But not if you are a parent of teenagers getting killed because the military sent in by the government keeps killing the country's youth involved in drugs.  So what is a national leader to do?  It seems one cannot win.

We have failed as a society when we've allowed our freedoms to become our worst prisons; when we have allowed the devaluation of the family and God to be replaced by the pursuit of pleasure and the dollar; and when we step in, we find it is far too late for a solution that doesn't cost even more lives, if a solution can be found at all outside of the very things we discarded in the first place.

U.S. Federal Agents Give Mexican Criminals Guns So They Can Catch Them, Instead 100's Killed

CBS has brought out some incredible news today that expose some really bungled strategies of American Federal Agents. You won't believe this. I recommend you watch the videos on this. And then think about what's wrong with this picture?

Please share the blog with others who may find it of interest.

Noon Time (EST) Musings - January 15, 2011

Has Vladimir Putin been rather quiet lately, or is it just my imagination.  I wonder what the old boy (and further head of his country's secret service) has been up to lately?  Well, for starters, I just noted that BP and Russia have signed an arctic oil deal recently and there's some global concerns about that.

And you want to go to Mexico for a vacation because????  Even though there were 15,000 killings there in 2010 because of the drug wars going on.  Now the locals are thinking of trying new approaches like 'negotiating with the drug gangs".  That's comforting.

Chief Justice Roberts Jr. on the intention of what the Constitution authors intended for the Supreme Court: "The Framers were not the sort of people, having fought a revolution to get the right of self-government, to sit down an say, 'Let's take all the difficult issues before us and let's have the judges decide them.'  That would have been the farthest thing from their mind."  Amen to that.  Yet today liberals want the Supreme Court (when it is weighted with liberals) to do just that.  And for years they did just that knocking down every law they disagreed with.  And of course, the conservatives want the opposite.  Now with the conservatives in the majority, or so it seems, the liberals are crying foul.  I think Roberts is bang on.  Let's see what happens as he now oversees a conservative court.

Conservatives should be 'ogres'.  Writing in Fortune magazine recently, Roger Parloff says that Chief Justice Robert's humor and charm fooled liberals on his confirmation committee to support him and think he was really a moderate.  He quotes one Supreme Court advocate to say, "In Washington, people expect very conservative people to be ogres."  And Roberts wasn't coming across as one.  So he got confirmed.  My thoughts: a) hog wash  b) it's too sad that we conservatives are perceived that way.  And since most of us may happen to be Christians, it is even sadder.  So, one word of advice to us all: "Lighten Up!  But Don't Compromise."  In fact, somebody should make that a motto. 

Just musing.
