After last Tuesday’s impressive showing by the GOP in the 2014 midterm elections, Republicans now control 68 of 98 partisan state legislatures, the highest in the party’s history
A recent Real Clear Politics analysis highlighted that on top of boasting the majority in both the U.S. Senate and U.S. House of Representative, Republicans currently control the governorship and both houses of the legislature in 23 states. That number could jump to 24 if Sean Parnell wins re-election in Alaska.… Continue Reading
Before the election, the Christian Emergency League challenged believers to not just vote for the lesser of two evils but only for those who deserve our vote. Those who deserve our vote must at least speak for the unborn and recognize God’s establishment of the family based on husband and wife. This we submit is a minimum.
What we see unfortunately in Illinois is that most voters in our state are not concerned with such when it comes to voting.… Continue Reading
The American people sent an unmistakable message to Washington, D.C.: Voters expect Republicans in Congress to listen and fight for the conservative agenda they ran on.
- Every single newly elected Republican Senator ran on the full repeal of Obamacare. In most competitive races it was the top issue. Over 40,000 ads against Obamacare were run on behalf of winning candidates. The Republican House and Senate must now keep those campaign promises and use reconciliation to send a bill repealing Obamacare to the President.

While Sandra Fluke and the “Abortion Barbie” – Wendy Davis were soundly defeated on Tuesday night and all over the country thrilling Pro-Life victories were taking place, Mammon and Moloch stole the show in Illinois. With Bruce Rauner’s victory in the gubernatorial election, there’s a new sheriff in town and he’s not partial to the unborn or to Biblical marriage.
Illinois was the cesspool that polluted the nation with Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Valerie Jarrett, and David Axelrod, all graduates of the Paul Alinsky School of Soft Insurrection.

It is time to vote!
You can find out what the candidates’ positions are on issues that matter to you and your family by visiting ILVoterGuide.com. It’s Illinois’ most detailed voter guide! Knowing what the candidates you vote for believe is critical, especially in the Illinois General Assembly, where only one or two votes can decide if anti-family policies get passed into law.

If it’s somehow racist and discriminatory to require identification as a condition for voting, then how is it any less discriminatory to impose similar conditions for air travel, mortgages, receiving or cashing government checks, or purchasing guns?
Voting is a crucial right—but so is the ability to purchase property or to keep and bear arms. The Democratic claim that black people don’t have equal access to identification is obviously false: black voting participation in crucial states actually went up after new rules requiring ID as a condition of voting.… Continue Reading

Control of the U.S. Senate is up for grabs on November 4, and illegal voters may tip the balance. Estimates are that more than 14 percent of non-citizens were registered to vote in the elections of 2008 and 2010, and that could now easily exceed the margin of victory in many tight Senate races.
Democrats typically win more than 80 percent of the votes cast by non-citizens, so votes cast by non-citizens produce a net bonanza of additional votes for Democrats.… Continue Reading

New polling shows that the “War on Women” theme with which Democrats hope to rally their female base seems to be flopping across the country.
In the crucial U.S. Senate race in Arkansas, women voters give GOP Senate challenger Tom Cotton a solid edge, joining their husbands and brothers and sons in rejecting the Obama agenda. In Colorado, where U.S. Senator Mark Udall has emphasized women’s issues so heavily that some reporters call him “Mark Uterus,” males and females give an identical and decisive edge to his Republican opponent, Corey Gardner.… Continue Reading

The Western world reacts in horror when some Third World Imam puts out a fatwa on a cartoonist or an author for merely challenging a point of Islam. We ask the “moderate” Muslim, why have you swallowed your tongue? Why aren’t you decrying this barbarism?
But when a lesbian mayor tries to enforce lavender Sharia against a group of Houston pastors for the crime of being Christian, where is the cry from the “homosexual community”?… Continue Reading
