US Representative Patrick Kennedy – who faces a Republican challenger and slipping popularity, according to a new poll – threw the Kennedys’ first stone at newly elected US Senator Scott Brown, calling his candidacy “a joke.’’ (Patrick Kennedy: 'Scott Brown is a joke')

The Rhode Island Democrat was the first of the Kennedy family to openly criticize the newly sworn in Brown, who succeeded the congressman’s father, US Senator Edward M. Kennedy. The younger Kennedy slammed Brown for pressing to be sworn in early, a move that Democrats believe was timed so that Brown could vote against President Obama’s nominee to the National Labor Relations Board.

“Brown’s whole candidacy was shown to be a joke today when he was sworn in early to cast his first vote as an objection to Obama’s appointment to the NLRB,’’ Kennedy told a blog for the congressional newspaper, The Hill, on Thursday. He suggested that a vote against the nominee would disappoint many of Brown’s supporters.

(Patrick isn't only  ripping  US Senator Scott Brown but all who voted for him. What a way to please the voters. This shows the Democrats are out of touch with most Americans.) 

 Well the 2010 Super Bowl is now history. Hats off to the  Saints. Better luck next time to the Colts. I picked the Colts and I am a  Colt’s fan so the game didn't go the way I thought it would go or the way I wanted it to go. I posted last Friday that I would be happy for whoever won the game and I am a man of my word so I'm very happy for the Saints and all of their fans.  I  hope this win will help the Saints and all of their fans and their city in many ways. I also believe the Colts will be back next year! Good job Saints.

Why are groups such as the National Organization for Women (NOW), the Feminist Majority Foundation, the Women's Media Center, and numerous "pro-choice" groups apoplectic over a Super Bowl commercial sponsored by Focus on the Family?
 
Clearly, the commercial's subject matter has propelled it to the front ranks of controversy in the days leading to the Super Bowl. Entitled "Celebrate Family, Celebrate Life," the ad purportedly (though none of the ad's critics have actually seen it) tells the story of Florida All-American and Heisman trophy winner Tim Tebow and his mother, Pam.

The "pro-choice" forces have been pressuring CBS to reverse itself and pull the ad. Why? I believe it's because this ad featuring Tim and his mother puts a dramatic human face on unborn children. It confronts people across the nation with the fact that every "problem pregnancy" involves not just a pregnant mother, but also a real, live unborn human being.

(The above is part of a piece written by Dr. Richard Land. Land writes the pro choice crowd is losing the battle for the hearts and minds of Americans because of  people like Tim Tebow. Instead of making their case why abortion is right they tried to stop the Super Bowl commercial from being played. I can't blame them. The only argument they have is it should be a right to kill children. That argument is starting more and more to  fall on deaf ears in  mainstream America.

By now, most Americans have heard about the famous Tim Tebow advertisement Focus on the Family will air during the Super Bowl. 

As most people know, Pam Tebow got sick with dysentery while on a missions trip to the Philippines and her doctors suggested she consider an abortion because of the medication she was taking while pregnant with Tim.

She refused, gave birth, and son Tim led the Florida Gators to a national championship and won the Heisman Trophy.

During a time with slightly less national attention focus on his family, Bob Tebow talked with Sports Illustrated about his son's famous birth story.

"Have you heard the story of Timmy's birth?" he told the magazine.

"When I was out in the mountains in Mindanao, back in '86, I was showing a film and preaching that night. I was weeping over the millions of babies being [aborted] in America, and I prayed, 'God, if you give me a son, if you give me Timmy, I'll raise him to be a preacher,'" he recalled.

"American Idol" producers are eager to hire Howard Stern to replace Simon Cowell as the show's tough-talking judge, sources tell Page Six.

An insider said that producers of the hit Fox show say Stern, America's highest-paid radio personality, is their top choice to take over from Cowell, who leaves at the end of this season. They approached the King of All Media after he repeatedly mentioned on-air that his exclusive Sirius XM Radio deal expires next January and he was open to other offers. Cowell was paid $50 million a year. (Howard Stern to Replace Simon Cowell on 'IDOL'?

(As a person of faith I believe all people can change but if Mr. Stern is still the same man who talks about  sick sex this is a bad move. This will end up costing this show viewers. I  don't watch  "American Idol" but I know people who do. I know at the same time because we live in a sick culture that this will help  this program  gain viewers. Of course Mr. Stern will have to clean up his act but how much because anymore anything goes on TV. This just might be another reason to give up  prime time TV  along with a reminder to pray for Mr. Stern because he is just a fruit of how sick our culture is.)

In expansive remarks at a law school in Florida, Justice Clarence Thomas on Tuesday vigorously defended the Supreme Court’s recent campaign finance decision.

And Justice Thomas explained that he did not attend State of the Union addresses — he missed the dust-up when President Obama used the occasion last week to criticize the court’s decision — because the gatherings had turned so partisan.

Justice Thomas responded to several questions from students at Stetson University College of Law in Gulfport, Fla., concerning the campaign finance case, Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission. By a 5-to-4 vote, with Justice Thomas in the majority, the court ruled last month that corporations had a First Amendment right to spend money to support or oppose political candidates.

“I found it fascinating that the people who were editorializing against it were The New York Times Company and The Washington Post Company,” Justice Thomas said. “These are corporations.”

The part of the McCain-Feingold law struck down in Citizens United contained an exemption for news reports, commentaries and editorials. But Justice Thomas said that reflected a legislative choice rather than a constitutional principle.
