CNN Asks Catholic Bishop 'Why Not Get on Board' and Support Gay Marria
CNN's Kyra Phillips asked a Catholic bishop on Thursday "why not get on board" with dissenting Catholics who favor gay marriage. Given CNN's past support for LGBT causes, they clearly would not question the motives of a religious minister favoring gay marriage.

Lefties Accuse Kirk Cameron of Hate Speech for Christian Beliefs
There’s nothing the Hollywood left prizes more than the right to free expression. Just not Kirk Cameron’s free expression.

WashPost Book Reviewer Hails New Book With Loopy Theory on Biblical Bo
Far be it for the Washington Post to relegate its attacks on orthodox Christian faith and conservative religious practice to its "On Faith" feature.

Time's Meacham: Anti-Limbaugh Letter by Georgetown President 'Timeless
Jon Meacham has come down with a particularly virulent strain of Limbaugh Derangement Syndrome that is bringing him to the brink of insanity. How else could one explain the Time magazine writer hailing an anti-Limbaugh speech as "timeless" just like Jesus's Sermon on the Mount or Lincoln's Gettysburg Address?

"The American Conservative Union just came out" with their latest congressional scorecard and what do you know, retiring Sen. Olympia Snowe (R-Maine) has "the lowest lifetime conservative record [48.59, just left of center] of any Republican.
