Dr Dobson responds to Barbara Walters, Whoopi and The View

Dr. Dobson Sets 'The View' Straight-Here Dobson's response!!! See my report on the Values Voter Summit below. Has nothing to do with racism. Actually many speakers were African American like Michael Steele, Bishop Harry Jackson, Star Parker, Kent Blackwell and probabily many more. I wonder why they didn't mention these reputable African American speakers and why did they make such a point of pointing out only Focus on the Family and not all the other reputable sponsors that had nothing to do with this and actually when found out took that booth away. The point was not to make a racist point but rather to point out how Obama waffles on issues. But either way it was taken down because of the concerns.

You will also, find an email where you can email Barbara Walters your concerns. Here is my Email:

Dear Barbara,

Out of an attempt to maintain good relations amongst the right and the left on the political spectrum I feel "The View" had gone overboard on creating a perception of Focus on the Family Action that was a false perception to your viewers and thus damaging relations amongst many in our politically diverse nation.

I just found out about this today so if your show has made a correction to this perception then great. Please do let me know by emailing me back.

If not then your show is doing just what your show doesn't want to do or at least I don't think so anyways. Maybe "The View" doesn't have good relations amongst conservative in mind and if that is why your show ended up the way it did then fine. What can I do it is your show and not mine and you can do what you like with what is your own?

However, if you are trying to maintain any objectivity and good relations toward conservatives then you may like to have a public correction of this misperception. What should have also been reproted on your show for balance sake and true perception sake is that this Values Voter Summit was in no way racist as evidenced by Bishop Harry Jackson, Star Parker, Michael Steele, Dr Alveda King (Dr Martin Luther King Jr's Niece!!!! at an event sponsored by Focus on the Family Action) and Kent Blackwell and probabily others all of which are African American. I think that is a very important point when one is relating racism to a political event and those sponsoring it.

I bet that if this were a liberal event that none of this would have been reported on your show or at least not without giving another side to the story like simply pointing out the many African American reputable speakers at the event.

Your show only hurts relations when your show did not report this situation fairly. I hope you come to find it within yourself to consider an apology or not even an apology just a simple update to present further facts about the Values Voter Summit.

If I were to watch that episode and that is all I heard of conservatives and the Values Voter Summit and Focus on the Family Action I would come to a very false impressions of these groups and when I found out about the false impression I would then be coming to a very true reality of liberal bias on "The View".

Please do respond to my email in some fashion. Thank you very much, TB

State by State Senate races getting tight for Colorado and New Mexico

New Mexico update:-Pearce closest he has ever been according to Rasmussen polls:

Also, Pearce lets TV audience know where Udall stood twice voting to not ban Partial Birth Abortion. A ban that was held up to be constitutional by the Supreme Court. So no constitutional excuses that this may overturn Roe vs Wade on this one.

07/25/2008 Rasmussen poll update-Pearce gains 3 percentage points from June poll but still well behind Udall. 59% to 34%.
08/20/2008 Rasmussen poll update-Pearce gains ground on Rasmussen Poll from last months Rasmussen Poll. 51% to 41% still in favour of Udall.
09/08/2008 Rasmussen poll update-Pearce gains ground now 51% to 44% but Udall still up.

Colorado update-Schaffer closest he has ever been according to Rasmussen polls:

Also, the Colorado personhood amendment gets endorsement by great, great grandson of William Wilberforce who said if William were around today he would be working on abolishing the abortion trade. Click above for more...

Arizona update:

There is not Senate race this year for Arizona but there are 3 congressional races and all I have been able to muster up so far is below"

Here is a conservative voter guide from Arizona Catholic Conference-it looks like the democrats running for all 3 position in Arizona failed to answer the survey while all Republicans did. This should tell you that Democrats in the congress in Arizona are not concerned with Values Voter Issues whereas Republicans are. So keep this in mind as you vote for you congressional politician.

McCain vs Obama in the polls

By the way McCain seemed to loose his lead and was down 5 points and then they tied and the last I checked Obama is up by 3 points in the polls and up in the electoral college by the 3 polling groups I know of. http://www.pollster.com/, http://www.fivethirtyeight.com/ and http://www.electoral-vote.com/.

Pro-Life

What ABC, CBS, NBC and PBS are sadly missing? Planned Parenthood removes offensive videos after we the people instead of YouTube have censored it!!!-A powerful 5 minute slide video recording Obama's own words in the Illinois Senate over the Born Alive Infant Protection Act. This is a powerful video plus more... Like Planned Parenthood taking down some nasty videos on their web site because of complaints and exposing of these videos to the public by "we the people" as opposed to censorship by YouTube.com (see how YouTube and Google are censoring "we the people" at Story of abortion Dr to Pro-life Doctor that will put you in tears and draws attention to facts that are largely missed in Big Media. and scroll down to You Tube, Google and Obama vs the unborn and The Christian Institute takes on Google and wins over ban on abortion ads!!!. Also, a great 24 minute interview with Dr Alveda King, Dr Martin Luther Kings niece who is a hero fo the unborn and the faith!!! She has great words of wisdom on this issue. Herself being one who had committed abortion but found grace and forgiveness in Christ!!!

Can we trust Factcheck.org on Gianna and Obama ads!!!-Jill Stanek documents how Factcheck.org needs some fact checking itself concerning Gianna Jessen and the http://www.bornalivetruth.org/.

Story of abortion Dr to Pro-life Doctor that will put you in tears and draws attention to facts that are largely missed in Big Media.-This was a very touching post for me!!! I was in tears over this issue but decided to post it though it may be graphic just so others may relate why this issue is so concerning to some. Check a video that was censored by YouTube and then check out a far more graphic video that was not censored by YouTube. The only difference is the one censored had Obama in it. Hmm? Also, check out videos censored by YouTube about Planned Parenthood. Hmm? Is this how YouTube and Google and Big Media want to go down in the history books as opposing efforts that the Great, great grandson of William Wilberforce supports .

Denver Post vs the legacy of William Wilberforce, other christians and the unborn-Great statement from great, great grandson of William Wilberforce as he endorses the Colorado Personhood amendment and the pro-life movement.

BornAliveTruth.org all over the news and Kansas Abortion Timeline as the first ever Attorney General to take on Planned Parenthood and Dr Tiller

http://www.40daysoflife.org/ -You can get on the email list for updates of this event. 7 babies have been saved in the first 3 days!!!

Religious Freedom

What Big Media doesn't want you to know about? Historic Sunday in Churches across the nation and 20 recent First Amendment Case Victories.-"The point of the Pulpit Initiative is very simple: the IRS should not be the one making the decision by threatening to revoke a church’s tax-exempt status. We need to get the government out of the pulpit...Churches were completely free to preach about candidates from the day that the Constitution was ratified in 1788 until 1954. That’s when the unconstitutional rule known as the ‘Johnson Amendment’ was enacted." Also, "20 First Amendment Victories in 4 months and most of those in just the last 2 months.."

I would suggest all if you have opportunity to watch or listen to in the back ground as you are working the Values Voter Summit (Click here to view video archives). You can watch the videos in parts by speaker.

Highlights for me of the summit:

Michael Steele had a great laid out logically and calm inspiring rational speech I was impressed with.

Joe Gibbs (ex Washington Redskin football coach) who also spoke at the Republican National Convention just about gives an altar call.

There was a womens panel discussing Palin.

Newt Gingrich had a great speech concerning Oil and Economy and the more political side but many other good comments.

Stephen Baldwin (actor) was great in his exposing of Hollywood and Entertainment industry. I was awestruck by how the advertisers for TV shows are going after the youth of America with horrible advertisements like one that uses Internet chat slang terms like OMFG in their advertisements. Powerful message!!!

Lila Rose who is the college student who took her hidden cameras into Planned Parenthood to expose deception at Planned Parenthood so much so that YouTube has censored their videos which you can find at http://www.liveactionfilms.org/.

Sean Hannity (who is on Fox and has his own talk radio show) had a great speech. A little slow at first but the second half of the speech was excellent exposing the Big Media explaining why FoxNews and talk radio are so successful.

Jill Stanek (the Christian nurse who testified before Obama concerning the Born Alive Infant Protection Act, Dr Alveda King (Dr Martin Luther Kings Jr's Niece) and Phil Kline (the first Attorney General to go after Planned Parenthood). These all were great speeches. Must hear speeches.

Alan Sears of ADF. They have beat the ACLU better then 3 out of every 4 times in religious liberty cases and are ready to take the IRS to court if they interfere with Pulpit Freedom Sunday (see above). This all inspite of having a fraction of the funding that the ACLU has!!! A very encouraging speech.

And much much more....

Introducing Gianna Jessen

Jill and Gianna vs Obama. Who really has the sleazy ad?-Check it out for yourself plus video interview of Gianna Jessen on Hannity and Colmes.

BornAliveTruth.org introducing Gianna Jessen, the first abortion survivor to be featured in new television ad. -"She weighed a mere 2 lbs at birth and the doctors said she would never be able to hold up her head, sit up, crawl or walk...Gianna doesn’t believe that her Cerebral Palsy takes away her life, but, rather, enriches it. . . she walks with a slight limp today and runs marathons. On April 30, 2005 she completed her first 26.2 mile marathon after running just over 7 hours and was presented with the coveted blank blank award! On April 23, 2006 she completed the London Marathon as well...Gianna understands the plight of orphans, being one herself. She was placed into the foster care system early on in life, eventually being taken into the loving home of a woman named Penny. Penny has been a mother to 56 foster children in her life. Gianna was later adopted by Penny's daughter, making Penny Gianna's grandmother. According to Gianna, Penny saved her life. Gianna is a Christian. Her life was given to her by the grace of God...Many Americans don’t realize it is legal to have an abortion throughout all nine months of pregnancy. After being burned alive for approximately 18 hours in the womb from the saline solution, Gianna was delivered alive in a Los Angeles County abortion clinic. Her medical records state, "born during saline abortion"...this is what caused her Cerebral Palsy. Gianna's travels and experiences have led her all over the world. Her life has been covered by many major news media outlets, including, most recently, the BBC News and World Radio, Sky News, and The Good Morning Show in England, reaching many people with a message of hope and conviction."...American Big Media where are you????!!!!! Would this not make for a great eye catching story of hope. I bet this has nothing to do with ratings but rather Big Media political bias. Where are you???"

JillStanek.com documents with actualy photo copies of Gianna's birth: Gianna Jessen's bonafides-"Today Politico's Jonathan Martin called Gianna Jessen a "self-proclaimed abortion-survivor," and ABC's Jake Tapper said Gianna "claims" to have survived an abortion. I suppose speculation is warranted. So in answer to that, here are documents proving Gianna is indeed an abortion survivor. The first is Gianna's birth medical record, indicating she was "Born during Saline abortion"...Next is Gianna's birth certificate, listing infamous abortionist "Edward C. Allred, M.D.," as the physician who delivered her. Allred is the owner of the largest group of independent abortion mills in the U.S. (click to enlarge)...Finally is an article written in April 1978, when Gianna was 10 months old. She was entered as an exhibit of sorts under an alias in the murder trial of abortionist William Waddill, who stood accused of strangling another saline abortion survivor. In reading the article, recall Jessen has the "gift of cerebral palsy," as she likes to say..". Click on link to view actual photos. Like I said before Jill Stanek is well documented. You almost have to be being up against Big Media. Here is a recent update to this post: "UPDATE, 4:40p:Based on the evidence presented in this post, Martin has removed "self-proclaimed" and Tapper has posted an addendum stating, "UPDATE: Jessen has posted medical records on her Web site to support her story," with a link to this website. Kudos to both for their willingness to reanalyze their stories when presented with new information."

Thank God for 527's for the sake of the unborn-Some responses to Big Media discussion of Gianna's new ad calling out Obama's record on Born Alive Infants Protections. "Obama's zealousness to defend Roe vs Wade and the right of a women to choose to abort when at the time Obama even supported partial birth abortion which now is banned and upheld against Planned Parenthood's (who has given Obama 100% record on abortion and no wonder)challenge at the Supreme Court (no thanks to Mr or Mrs Obama, see Partial Birth Abortion is an issue in NM Senate race...) may cost him many votes and may bring more awareness to a cause that opposes his presidency that being the cause of the rights to life for the unborn. If Obama loses and McCain wins then there is a great chance that a pro-unborn child judge may be elected to replace an anti-life judge and Roe vs Wade may finally be overturned."

BornAliveTruth.org!!! Well known Christian Musician admits homosexuality.-"If you are on the other side of this issue I suggest you check into a well documented pro-life blogger in Jill Stanek before you remain persuaded in your own persuasion. Or if you are concerned about this issue you need to subscribe to JillStanek.com feeds or visit her site daily.....I noticed her blog is number 7,688 out of over 3 million blogs out there in all categories (according to Technorati) and this issue is only going to bump her up more."-Update: Now she is at 7,035.

Partial Birth Abortion is now an issue in NM

Partial Birth Abortion is an issue in NM Senate race...-See video of quick 15 second ad. "HOW DID TOM UDALL VOTE ON PARTIAL BIRTH ABORTION?-Not to mention Obama opposed this ban and Michelle Obama opposed this ban (see Michelle Obama's partial birth abortion fundraising letter). In contrast, McCain supported the ban and the ban was opposed by Planned Parenthood all the way to the Supreme Court and the Bush appointed court upheld the ban on this procedure that no other country in the world allows!!!"

Pro-Life message under attack by YouTube and Google

YouTube Yanks Another Pro-Life Video, Clip Exposes Barack Obama on Abortion-"The video included information about Obama's voting record on abortion-related bills, but YouTube blocked the video yesterday.The video resembles a campaign commercial and deals with Obama's abortion record and the producer tells LifeNews.com he thinks YouTube specifically removed it because it was negative towards Obama.It contains one graphic abortion photo and a diagram of the partial birth abortion procedure...."There are lots of pro-life videos containing graphic photos which are allowed to remain, but they don't mention Obama," Claydon said...Earlier this month, YouTube came under fire for blocking an investigative video from the pro-life group Live Action exposing the racist donations Planned Parenthood accepted.In July, a short film by the pro- life Population Research Institute highlighting dishonest reporting from a pro-choice filmmaker was censored.YouTube eventually responded to criticism and restored both videos. Also, YouTube took down a video from Citizens for a Pro-Life Society showing an abortion center that was investigated for illegally dumping medical waste.ACTION: Contact YouTube with your comments at http://www.youtube.com/t/contact_usRelated web sites:The video is now located at - http://www.viddler.com/explore/kcfl/videos/4"

The Christian Institute takes on Google and wins over ban on abortion ads!!!-Many news articles and a video report available on this blog.

Big Media double standard again and again

Why so many questions on McCain's position on abortion and not Obama's? Big Media?-"until Big Media tackles this issue Big Media will continue to go down in the history books as a media that violated its own neutrality clause and fairness doctrine at the expense of the least of these the unborn with no argument of any kind for justifying its silence!!!...I would like to ask Obama one question myself. Mr Obama why do you think Big Media doesn't drill you on questions concerning your abortion voting history or justification for abortion rights as they do Palin and McCain on some tough issues on their side? Like for instance why no follow up questions like: Why did you call the National Right to Life liars when they documented and exposed your 4 year misrepresentation of your voting record on the Born Alive Infant Protection Act in Illinois?, When you agreed with the documents and further explained your position why did you not apologize to the National Right to Life for smearing their documented and well researched investigation?, If you do not believe life begins inside of the womb then what evidence do you point to for that position?, If you do believe life begins in the womb but don't wish to impose this belief on others then what about the obvious imposition of faith on the life of those you believe are living inside of the womb?, Do you believe God can truly bless your presidency if you are going to continue to be a 100 percent (by standards of Planned Parenthood and NARAL, See Testimony of Roe of Roe vs Wade and Testimony of co-founder of NARAL and Dr. of the largest abortion clinic in the world has a pro-life change of heart) supporter of rights that violate the first right of all that being the right to life?, Why do you support tax payers funding of organizations that provide abortions if you do not wish to impose beliefs on those who disagree with you and believe abortion is the shedding of innocent blood, not to mention your universal health care program would include coverage for abortions?, etc etc etc."

Arnold Schwarzenegger pulls lever for Parental Consent law in California vs Planned Parenthood who gives Obama a 100% apporval rating

Family Planner/Obama/Democrats vs Family/McCain/Parental Involvement. Religious Freedom issues and Faith Based aide to hurrican victims.-Tom Brokaw and Arnold Schwarzenegger discuss why parents should be informed if daughter is going to have an abortion.

http://www.yeson4.net/-"The problem In California, a girl under age 18 can’t get a tan at a tanning salon, a cavity filled, or an aspirin dispensed by the school nurse without a parent knowing. But a doctor can perform a surgical or chemical abortion on a young girl without informing a parent. The answer Proposition 4 will require a doctor to notify at least one adult family member before performing an abortion on an under-18-year-old girl."

“California’s deceptive Proposition 4: It says it’s about parental notification, but it’s really about attacking legalized abortion”-"Francesca Ratner has this commentary on the LA Times. She begins: Its back! Proposition 4 on the November California ballot — “Waiting Period and Parental Notification Before Termination of Minor’s Pregnancy"-Do we always have to here this excuse? If they are so concerned that Roe vs Wade is going to be overturned (which I believe will eventually) that Obama voted against saving babies who survived an abortion (see www.BornAliveTruth.org) at the advice of Planned Parenthood and if Parental Involvement is an attack on Roe vs Wade then maybe Roe vs Wade needs to be overturned!!!!

A Parental-Involvement Opportunity-"There’s solid evidence that well-designed laws can protect mothers and their unborn children...Political candidates who support legal abortion have been changing their rhetoric in recent years. Indeed, during the current election cycle, a number of pro-choice candidates, including Barack Obama, have expressed an interest in lowering the incidence of abortion...Four studies in peer-reviewed academic journals use time-series, cross-sectional data to simultaneously analyze all the enacted pro-life parental-involvement laws over an extended period of time. These studies find that these pieces of legislation reduce the in-state minor abortion rate by anywhere from 13 to 19 percent....This study analyzed the Texas parental-notification law that took effect in 2000. The authors found that the law resulted in statistically significant declines in the abortion rate in Texas among 15-year-olds, 16-year-olds, and 17-year-olds....The results indicate that parental-involvement laws reduce the minor abortion rate by 13 percent — a finding that is consistent with other research on the subject. However, state laws that require parental consent instead of parental notification are even more effective, reducing the abortion rate by an average of 19 percent....The regression model indicates that these laws reduce the minor abortion rate by 31 percent. Now only three states — Minnesota, Mississippi, and North Dakota — have enacted parental-involvement laws that require the involvement of two parents. However, the substantial abortion declines that have occurred in each of these states suggest that they are models that other states should follow.."

Big media stupendously uncritical of Obama's Tax Cut plan

"ABC: McCain Would Help 'Wealthiest,' Obama to Cut Taxes for '95%'-""Cut taxes on most households (95%)." That 95 percent is impossible since one-third of those who file with the IRS are "non-payers," people who end up paying no tax or get money back which exceeds their payments. Obama plans to expand the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and create other credits. For those for whom the credits surpass their tax obligation, those are not tax cuts, but spending hikes or federal giveaways akin to welfare."

To McCain, CNN's Chetry Forwards Canard Obama Cuts Taxes for 90%-"Obama plans to cut the taxes for about 90 percent of Americans? That figure sounds remarkably similar to the 95 percent figure Fox News Channel host Brit Hume shot down on Sunday's Fox News Sunday program: "Obama goes around claiming he's going to cut the taxes of 95 percent of the public, which is literally impossible" since "40 percent of American taxpayers don't pay any income tax."

Smith Tells McCain Regulation Might've 'Helped Avert Crisis'-"As far as responsibility for the financial crisis, McCain had pointed out earlier in the interview: "Actually, a little -- two years ago, I warned that the oversight of Fannie and Freddie was, was terrible, that we were facing a crisis because of it, or certainly serious problems...But the influence that Fannie and Freddie had in the inside the beltway, old boy network, which led to this kind of corruption is unacceptable and I warned about it a couple of years ago." In fact, it was Democrats who blocked Bush administration proposals to reform Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac in 2003. 2003 New York Times article that detailed efforts by Democrats to block reforms: query.nytimes.com"-See Media is not giving you the whole Mortgage Crisis story: Fannie and Freddie is Enron x 19/Microsoft Sized Monopoly/Leading Compaign Giver and Lobbyist."

Samuel L Jackson pulling the lever for Obama

Samuel L. Jackson Hopes U.S. Joins 'World Community' with Obama-"Actor Samuel L. Jackson came on Tuesday's edition of Live with Regis and Kelly to promote his latest movie, Lakeview Terrace, but couldn't resist getting in a plug for Barack Obama.

First a must see video arguing for a Values Vote from www.CatholicVote.com. (I am not a Catholic as you all probabily know but this is an excellent argument for a Value Vote. A must view.)

Also, note below that McCain this last week according to fivethirtyeight.com just passed Obama in the Electoral College polls and has continued to build his lead and also, that more Republicans in the polls have self-identified as Republicans and that even the congressional and senate races are now closer then ever before. I wonder if this has anything to do with the GOP making some excellent stands in the RNC and Palin. (See GOP Platform the most pro-family and pro-life in the history of the GOP!!!!) Which has almost unaminously excited the social conservative base of the Republican Party and social conservatives like James Dobson are now in the Republican boat. Notice Big Media is not reporting on this in any meaningful detail. This is big news even if it favors one party over the other and isn't that what Big Media has been saying about Obama and why so much attention given to him in his campaign. Well what about when it happens on the other side? Big Media!!!

Since McCain won the primaries to the social conservative grin, Big Media had reports that social conservatism was dead or not as influential in the Republican party as before. When my interpretation of McCain's win was largely because all the social conservative votes in the primaries were split amongst those who were appealing to social conservatives like Romney and Huckabee and so McCain won because we social conservatives were splitting up our votes. Social Conservativism is very much alive in the Republican party as it was in the primaries and now maybe even more so since McCain has earned the votes of social conservatives by his continued meetings with social conservative leaders before Saddleback (by the way unreported by Big Media) then his excellent showing at Saddleback (largely unreported by Big Media on the 4 Big TV networks) and then his excellent choice in a strong social conservative VP (inspite of Big Media over criticism in comparison to Biden and Obama which only added to the already perceived media as Big from the RNC) and then his excellent choice in allowing without arguments the GOP platform to be the most pro-life and family platform in the history of the GOP. I am not saying that the social conservative base is the majority of the Republican party but it is enough to make the election of a Republican president necessary and that is great news for conservative moral values in our country. The values that made America possible in the first place and has continued to allow America to be salt and light in America and in this world!!!

Now the concern will be what McCain will do after elected. It is pretty clear McCain is pro-life so I don't have to many concerns there except in Embryonic Stem Cell Research however, if he wants to be relected another 4 years I think he will be more likely to be convinced to stay away from that issue then would Obama. And the same goes for some of the other issues. I believe McCain believes that if he keeps the social conservatives on his side he will do better then if he doesn't so if he does have policies that violate a social conservative base then he will be more likely to consider not doing so. This is we the people at work checking and balancing our leaders and it only works if their is a number of social conservative voters out there. So get out your vote and even if you disagree with McCain on some issues we have to get the moral issues down right and even if you believe McCain is doing this to get elected we can still hold him more accountable then if Obama were elected. So our voice will matter in the McCain campaign as opposed to the Obama.

Our issues are not above McCain's pay grade as they are above Obama's!!!!!!!!!! McCain is not perfect but has indeed considered our concerns and in my opinion has earned our vote so lets let the Republican party know how important we are by rewarding McCain for his stance on these issues and get out to the voting booth like never before!!! Let's support this president by continuing to encourage him to make the right decisions!!! If we don't then what are we saying. We are essentially saying that even if a president makes the right values voter decision it will be at the expense of his political career. Let us never let a president who takes a stand as McCain has in appealling to his social conservative base pay for it. At least not from us....and encourage others to do the same for the sake of American Values. If McCain loses let it not be because we didn't do our job in getting out the vote for him!!!

Remember that God is in control not voters or any president but God does use people and presidents providentially to bring about His plan for history (Jesus is a perfect example of how God uses even terribly bad situations for His good. Even when the people are bad and the ruler is bad, God used them to bring about the cross of Christ and the greatest love ever displayed from a God to the world. Sometimes to get our attention God has to shake things up and calls us to look in the futuer for hope.). So all in good context let's see what God has ordained for November elections. Remember the congressional and senate races, also!!! Even if our candidate loses God calls us to the future and to trust in Him above any candidate anyways!!! We are in a no lose situation if we trust Him above all else!!!

Oprah Winfrey and socially conservative women

Florida women's group to boycott Oprah-"The Florida Federation of Republican Women are boycotting The Oprah Winfrey Show after the talk-show host refused to allow Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as a guest on her show before the election. FFRW also urges subscribers to the celebrity's magazine, O, to cancel their subscriptions. Cindy Graves, a vice president of FFRW, says Oprah Winfrey built her career catering to women and the advancement of women's rights. Now, Graves says Winfrey is alienating a large portion of her audience by refusing to interview Governor Palin before the election. "This [story] is...a women's issue, again, regardless of whether you support Governor Palin or you don't," said Graves. "And we feel as though that Oprah, bless her, has always been someone we respected and we were just so surprised and shocked that that would be her stance." In a press statement, FFRW president Linda Ivell says the decision not to bring Palin onto the show until after the election means the popular talk-show host is "sit[ting] out the greatest political moment in the history of Republican women since suffrage."-Oprah can do what she likes with her show and business. But if she is going to endorse Obama and then not allow, at the requests of her Oprah fans, to have Sarah Palin on her show definitely gives the appearance of political bias. Which just adds to the perception of many that Big Media is indeed Big.

Is Oprah Biased? Host Won't Interview Palin-"With almost 1,000 comments on her community message board dedicated to a possible Palin interview, Winfrey is already garnering strong reaction among her fans -- both those who are pleased with her decision and those who are not, such as Grossman-Green."

September 09, 2008: Polls show that Big Media journalist may be raising questions unequally and unfairly. Palin's testimony. Obama loosing moderate evangelicals.-Video of Palin speaking before her church in Alaska and more...Obama losing moderate evangelicals-"And now a story in today's Wall Street Journal: The moderate evangelical vote is slipping away from Barack Obama."

September 10, 2008: Update on Crystal Dixon. Biden and Obama on abortion getting Big Media attention. Should Sarah Palin be in Politics?-"White women have moved from 50-42 percent in Obama's favor before the conventions to 53-41 percent for McCain now, a 20-point shift in the margin that's one of the single biggest post-convention changes in voter preferences."

Biden and Obama are interviewed concerning positions on abortion in Big Media and Jill Stanek responds: "Biden, like Obama, attempted to make this a religious question. But it is much more than that. It is a scientific, medical, and constitutional question. When do science and medicine say human life begins? At conception. This isn't some vague concept. What about the Constitution? 35 years ago US Supreme Court Chief Justice Harry Blackmun wrote in the Roe v. Wade decision: "The appellee ... argue that the fetus is a "person" within the language and meaning of the 14th Amendment ... If this suggestion of personhood is established, the appellant's case, of course, collapses, for the fetus' right to life would then be guaranteed specifically by the Amendment." 35 years ago one could not watch human fertilization with a microscope or view early life with 4D ultrasound. Were personhood to be an issue before the US Supreme Court today, as Blackmun stated, the other side's argument would "collapse."

Palin had just gone thru a pretty tough interview with Charlie Gibson. I do wish that they had been equally tough on Biden and Obama concerning their position on abortion. See what follow up question Jill Stanek would have asked Obama: "I wish Brokaw's follow-up question had been phrased like this, "So your judgment is that the unborn are living human beings but you still think it should be legal to kill these living human beings?...Nevertheless, Obama still feigned ignorance, which begged the next question Stephanopoulos didn't ask: Why so avidly support abortion if you're not sure it may kill innocent human souls?" Also, see other questions that should be asked of Obama at: New Documents Revealing Obama's cover up on Born Alive Infant Protection,

JivinJ's Life Links 9-12-08-"Father Thomas Williams on Joe Biden's recent appearance on Meet the Press: The more serious problem for Joe Biden at this point is not the loss of his credibility as a Catholic, but as a person of conscience. When you say on national television that you agree with your Church that abortion is murder, but that you intend to support legislation that keeps abortion fully available, you leave voters wondering why you would support a right to what you consider to be murder...."

Should Sarah Palin be in Politics?-"There is concern and reservations over the candidacy of Sarah Palin as a vice-presidential candidate, and not all of it is coming from the political left.

September 11, 2008: 82% of voters who support McCain believe the justices should rule on what is in the Constitution, just 29% of Barack Obama supporteers agree!!!-The title is a little disturbing if reflective of Obama supporters and how the question for the poll was worded. Also, ACLU Donates $1.2 Million to Anti-Marriage California Proposition vs Local donors give $1.6 million for ban on gay marriage

September 12, 2008: Big Media missing gaps on the Economy, Iraq, Palin, the American People's view of Big Media, South Dakota ballot measure and more...-http://www.fivethrityeight.com/-Has McCain ahead in Electoral College Polls 272 to 266 on 09/11/2008 for first time since primaries that I am aware of on this site which I have been checking almost daily..."

Poll: Convention lifts McCain over Obama-"The Republican National Convention has given John McCain and his party a significant boost, a USA TODAY/Gallup Poll taken over the weekend shows, as running mate Sarah Palin helps close an "enthusiasm gap" that has dogged the GOP all year. McCain leads Democrat Barack Obama by 50%-46% among registered voters, the Republican's biggest advantage since January and a turnaround from the USA TODAY poll taken just before the convention opened in St. Paul. Then, he lagged by 7 percentage points....The convention bounce has helped not only McCain but also attitudes toward Republican congressional candidates and the GOP in general"

Gallup: Battle for Congress Suddenly Looks Competitive-"Gallup reports: “A potential shift in fortunes for the Republicans in Congress is seen in the latest USA Today/Gallup survey, with the Democrats now leading the Republicans by just 3 percentage points, 48% to 45%, in voters’ ‘generic ballot’ preferences for Congress.

The poll, conducted Sept. 9-11, showed McCain with 48 percent and Obama with 45 percent, which is not a statistically significant advantage."

Big Media missing gap on the Economy

Big Media may share with you the polls that show the Economy to be an important issue amongst voters but they won't show you how the polls describe how the voters want the Economy fixed....

Most Voters Say Encouraging Economic Growth is Key, but Big Government is Not the Solution-"Sixty-two percent (62%) of voters say encouraging economic growth in America is more important than closing the gap between the rich and poor, and the best way to do that is for the government to move out of the way....A survey conducted back in January found that 53% of voters said creating economic growth was more important, while 40% said that of reducing the economic class gap."

Maybe this is why McCain is gaining...

McCain Closing in on Obama on Economy-"In a Sept. 5-7 USA Today/Gallup poll, 48 percent of Americans say Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama can better handle the economy compared to 45 percent who say McCain can do a better job."

The War in Iraq and some interesting articles from a non Big Media perspective!!!

But check out these comments in the Pro-Life section of this blog I found on JillStanek.com

JivinJ's Life Links 9-10-08-"The logic of the modified pro-choice position reduces to, "I think it's wrong to kill my own children, but I don't think we should stop other people from killing theirs." Notice that this critique has nothing to do with whether abortion is right or wrong. That's a different question. I am simply pointing out that the modified pro-choice view deals itself a fatal blow. That is Biden's blunder, and the blunder of anyone else advancing such a foolish notion...."

Pro-Life: ERLC joins call for Bush to reverse abortion rules that assist Planned Parenthood-"The Southern Baptist Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission and other pro-life organizations have asked President Bush, in his final months in office, to change regulations that have enabled such organizations as Planned Parenthood to use federal funds to promote abortion as a form of family planning. For more than seven years, the Bush administration has failed to reverse rules instituted under President Clinton that removed the wall between abortion services and family planning clinics that receive Title X grants....."Regulations issued during President Reagan's administration made clear recipients of Title X funds may not "refer for abortion or combine family planning services with abortion services," the letter said. The U.S. Supreme Court upheld those rules in a 1991 opinion.The Clinton administration, however, eliminated the pro-life protections."
