Where
would we be as a nation without the freedom of speech? After all, according to
the annual State of the First Amendment survey, it is by far America’s favorite
freedom and our most important right. In that survey, 47 percent voted for free
speech, compared to 10 percent for the next closest right, freedom of religion.
It is only appropriate that we dedicate a week to celebrating free speech.

Recently Crane Durham of American
Family Radio asked me to answer the President’s charge that by refusing to
raise the debt ceiling Congress is failing to do its job. The following transcript addresses this charge and the ridiculous
assertion that the systemic and pervasive failures which have accompanied the
recent shaky launch of the Obamacare exchanges are analogous to software
glitches on iPhone operating systems. Furthermore, we discuss whether
the President’s use of his rhetorical skills to attempt to exacerbate, rather
than calm, markets is a good example of leadership.

Sometimes liberals tell the truth
about themselves in the lies they tell about others.
CNN’s Fareed Zakaria is a sanctimonious elitist and a plagiarist besides.
Yet he
still has a worldwide audience via Global Public Square. And so his rantings do merit comment from time
to time, especially when they spread rabid anti-conservative propaganda to the
far corners of the globe that do not have anything like the Fox News Channel to
provide a mildly alternative perspective on U.S. affairs for an international
audience.

As we move forward amid a web of
strategic arguments over how to proceed, it is important to close this month’s
chapter with some clarity over what happened and what did not, what is true and
what is false.

Falling on Deaf Ears?—Why So Many Churches Hear So Little of the Bible
The sentence above comes from Mark Galli, senior managing editor of Christianity Today in an essay entitled, “Yawning at the Word.” In just a few hundred words, he captures the tragedy of a church increasingly impatient with and resistant to the reading and preaching of the Bible. We may wince when we read him relate his recent experiences, but we also recognize the ring of truth.
