ALAN KEYES — When people apply Christ's injunction to "seek first the kingdom of God and His justice" (Matthew 6:33, Luke 12:31), they often construe it without regard for the context. So they reason as if His words are meant to establish temporal priority (do this first, then that, then that, etc., in sequence). However, considered in its entirety, this is plainly not the case. For Christ goes on to say "and all other things will be added unto you." Simply put, everything else is fitly taken care of once you tend to God's rule.... (more)

CLIFF KINCAID — The lack of coverage in 2008 of the embarrassing facts in Barack Obama's background, especially his deep personal relationship with a Communist by the name of Frank Marshall Davis, stands as a sensational example of how dishonest the national media can be when they are determined to elect somebody. If Obama's opponent, Senator John McCain (R-AZ), had been linked to a Nazi or a Klansman, the press would have jumped on the story, with endless follow-ups.... (more)

WASHINGTON TIMES — Hillary Clinton's Christianity, which she wielded as a political weapon in her 2008 Democratic presidential primary campaign, largely has been missing in this year's election. She hasn't hidden her Methodist upbringing, but scholars say it's not front and center. And where in the past she used it as a window into her character, this year she's deployed it as a debate tactic to push criminal justice reform and other policy goals.... (more)

ANDREW C. MCCARTHY — As David and Rich have already noted, the FBI-302 report of the interview of Hillary Clinton, along with the other notes of investigation released today, make for mind boggling reading. Most bracing is the fact that Mrs. Clinton had her server wiped clean sometime between March 25 and 31, 2015, only three weeks after the New York Times on March 3 broke the story of the server system's existence....

CLIFF KINCAID — Kristen Welker informed viewers of the NBC Nightly News that an "undocumented worker" was at fault in a terrible bus crash in Louisiana on August 28 that killed two people and injured 41 others. It is typical of the media to use that phrase when referring to illegal aliens. It is how the media try to condition people to accept their presence in the United States. After all, if these people are "workers," they can't be such terrible people. On the other hand, the word "alien" implies something foreign to the United States.... (more)
