Murkowski Concedes AK Primary Race to Tea Party Candidate
In a major upset, Sen. Lisa Murkowski conceded her GOP Senate primary race Tuesday night to Tea Party Express favorite Joe Miller. Miller, a Fairbanks attorney, led by 1,630 votes after more than 15,000 absentee ballots were counted late Tuesday, a week after the election. "I don't see a scenario in which the primary will turn out in my favor," Murkowski said in her concession speech...CommentsAZ Border Sheriff: 'I Have About As Much Regard for the U.N. as I Do the Vermin'
(CNSNews.com) – Sheriff Larry Dever, whose officers patrol Cochise County along the border between Arizona and Mexico, said he finds it “amazing” that the U.S. State Department would refer the recently passed immigration law in his state to the United Nations Human Rights Council for review. “Well, it’s just amazing to me,” Dever told CNSNews.com. “Course, I have about as much regard for the U.N. as I do the vermin that hides in the rocks around my house here and reaches out and tries to bite me every now and then.” The Bush administration refused to join the U.N. Human Rights Council, citing lax membership criteria that allowed countries with poor human rights records to sit on the council, including countries such as China, Saudi Arabia, Libya, Russia, Cuba, Pakistan, Tunisia and Egypt...CommentsSupport for Obama's Pro-Abortion Health Care Program Drops Sharply in August
Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- Support for ObamaCare, the national health care program President Barack Obama signed into law that contains taxpayer-funded abortions, dropped sharply in August, according to a new Kaiser Health Tracking Poll. The results make it so one issue Democrats hoped to use to perform well in the upcoming elections will likely work against them. The Kaiser poll has support for the pro-abortion government-run health care program dropping 7 percent to just 43 percent. Opposition rose 10 percentage points to 45 percent --- the weakest showing for ObamaCare since Kaiser's poll in May...CommentsFL school board lifts Bible ban
A Christian law firm is declaring victory following a court hearing in Florida over whether a Christian organization should be allowed to distribute free Bibles on campus. Liberty Counsel appeared in federal court, seeking an injunction to immediately allow World Changers to hand out Bibles to interested students in Collier County schools during non-instructional time. Liberty Counsel attorney Horatio Mihet tells OneNewsNow the school board displayed an amazing change of heart at the hearing. "The Lord showed us great favor, and towards the end of the hearing the school board, I believe, saw the writing on the wall and did a complete about-face." Mihet reports that it "agreed that the distribution is constitutional and agreed to allow the Bibles to be distributed again in their schools"...CommentsFlorida Voters Back Pro-Life Candidates Rubio, Scott; Set Up Abortion Battles
Tallahassee, FL (LifeNews.com) -- Florida voters backed pro-life candidates for Senate and governor on Tuesday night and set up battles pitting pro-life and pro-abortion candidates against each other. In the gubernatorial race, pro-life Republican candidate Rick Scott defeated Attorney General Bill McCollum. And in the Senate race, pro-life former House Speaker Marco Rubio is now preparing to take on pro-abortion Gov. Charlie Crist and pro-abortion Rep. Kendrick Meek. Scott took 47 percent of the vote to 43 for McCollum in the Republican gubernatorial primary...CommentsObama Education Grants Politicized, School Choice Advocates Say
(CNSNews.com) - Politics may have played a role in the awarding of some Obama administration education reform grants, say pro school-choice groups that believe the reforms did not go far enough. Education Secretary Arne Duncan announced Tuesday that nine states and Washington, D.C. qualified for “Race to the Top” grants in the second phase of a program that rewards states for promoting charter schools -- public schools run by non-governmental entities, which tie teacher evaluation to student performance. With 18 states vying for a $3.4 billion pie, the department awarded grants to the District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Maryland, North Carolina, New York, Ohio, and Rhode Island. Only Delaware and Tennessee received grants in the first phase of the program...CommentsState Attorneys General Call on Craigslist to Drop Adult Services
HARTFORD, Conn. -- Craigslist should remove its adult services section because the website cannot adequately block potentially illegal ads promoting prostitution and child trafficking, attorneys general in 17 states demanded Tuesday in a joint letter. "Only Craigslist has the power to stop these ads before they are even published," Kansas attorney general Steve Six said in a statement. "Sadly, they are completely unwilling to do so." The joint letter acknowledged Craigslist faces the prospect of losing revenue if it were to remove the adult services section...CommentsAppeal in stem-cell decision revealing
A spokeswoman for Americans United for Life says it's obvious the Obama administration wants to circumvent the law and make federal funds available for research that requires the killing of unborn babies. U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder will appeal a federal court decision halting -- at least temporarily -- use of federal tax dollars for research on human embryos. Mary Harned, staff attorney at Americans United for Life, says news of the appeal this week was not big news to them. "President Obama expanded the availability of federal funds for researching human embryonic stem cells, and he expanded the ability for federal funds to be used for that type of research," says Harned. "So it doesn't surprise us that he would appeal an injunction by a federal judge preventing the use of federal funds for that purpose"...CommentsA 'faith or funds' tradeoff
WASHINGTON - More than 100 leaders of religious groups are urging Congress to reject legislation that would prohibit them from hiring only fellow believers if they accept federal funds. Barry Lynn, executive director of Americans United for Separation of Church and State, says taxpayers shouldn't fund religious charities that discriminate against nonbelievers in hiring. But officials from Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish groups argue that while they serve people of any religion, it's the shared faith of their employees that motivates and defines their mission...CommentsSen. Murkowski Trails Tea Party-Backed Candidate in Alaska Primary
A decorated Gulf War veteran was holding a narrow lead over Sen. Lisa Murkowski in the Alaska Republican Senate primary, as ballots continued to be counted Wednesday in what could shape up to be a stunning political upset. Polls taken before primary day had shown Murkowski, a two-term senator from an Alaska political dynasty, leading handily against the first-time candidate. But challenger Joe Miller insisted all along that the state's polling was unreliable -- as of Wednesday morning, Miller held a 2,000-vote lead. With 98 percent of precincts reporting, he had 51 percent and Murkowski had 49 percent. The number of uncounted absentee ballots, though, exceeded the number of votes separating the candidates...Comments
