Technically true…It was more than one. That is how Bill and Hillary lie.

Crosses on public property have been common in America throughout our history, and only recently have they been characterized as offensive as part of the cleansing of all things Christian from the public square.
In the early 1930s, San Francisco erected a 103 foot wide cross on city land atop Mt Davidson, the areas highest point. The monument was dedicated in an Easter Sunday ceremony in which President FDR participated by way of a telegram. The cross became a focal point for Easter Sunrise services for years to come and was also illuminated during the Christmas season. In 1990 a federal district court denied a petition by atheists to remove the cross, but in 1996 the infamous Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, in Carpenter v San Francisco, reversed the decision, holding that the sectarian religious monument could not be maintained on city property. The ACLU was elated and they were ready to get out the cutting torches and destroy the hated symbol.
City and county officials decided to sell the cross and the one-third acre tract of land surrounding it to a private entity at auction. It was a move that angered the anti-Christian groups, whose persistent objections demonstrated concerns far beyond church and state. City voters approved the auction and sale then lawsuits were filed claiming the sale was “fixed.” In 2002, the 9th circuit refused to invalidate the sale so the cross remained. There have been additional failed attempts to remove it since.
Eternal vigilance is ever needful or you can kiss your liberties goodbye.

The left only wants to take everything away from you, without consideration of the work that you do – and the contributions to the economy that you make.

After a little research and math I came up with some interesting numbers. Since opening day in 1962, Walmart has had about $8 Trillion in sales. The Walton family’s worth $150 Billion. Their net worth is only 1.8% of Walmart’s all time sales. The Average combined sales tax rate (state and local) across America is 6.44%. Fluctuation of tax rates aside, the numbers go to show that Walmart’s existence is responsible for funding our state and local governments with $512,000,000,000 ($512 Billion) or 341% of the Walton family’s net worth. The Walton’s are only making $0.36 (36 cents) every time you spend $20 at Walmart, while our state/local governments are making an average of $1.29 every time you spend $20.
Bottom line: Walmart has done more good for Government in sales tax alone than its done for the Walton family. #feelthejoe
I thought that was what it’s all about…the American dream..build a business and become successful. And I bet Sam Walton did more positive things for his community then bernie ever thought of. – Pastor Ward Clinton
Democrats are despicable

A whole lot of young voters don’t know what sort of scoundrels Bill and Hillary are. They never should have been in the white house in the first place and we sure don’t need to have them back there.

Not only was the murder suspect in the shooting of three young Muslim students in Chapel Hill, N.C., Feb.10 a vehement atheist, he was also a fan of the Southern Poverty Law Center, as The Weekly Standard pointed out Feb. 11. A quick trip to the Craig Hicks’s Facebook page reveals that not only was Hicks a fan of the SPLC, he was a self-described “militant atheist”- with numerous photos, memes and posts mocking Christianity. Some posts call God a sociopath and call Christianity a “pyramid scheme.” His other Facebook likes include the Neil DeGrasse Tyson television show “Cosmos,” famous British atheist Richard Dawkins, Bill Nye the Science Guy, Sarah Silverman, Friedrich Nietzsche, The Huffington Post, LGBT Ally groups and various other progressive fan pages. It is safe to say this is the same man as the Craig Hicks who appeared in court Feb.11, as Hicks’s personal photos match the appearance of the man who appeared in court yesterday. While Hicks’s lawyers blamed the violence on a parking dispute, friends and family of the three young people murdered had complained about Hicks’ intolerant and aggressive behavior towards them in the past. Hicks isn’t the first SPLC fan to turn violent. In 2012, the group’s “Hate Map,” which lists the addresses of various groups SPLC claims are right-wing extremists, inspired a gunman to enter the Family Research Council in 2012 and attempt to kill everyone in the building.
The media’s continued use of the SPLC as a legitimate and ethical source of information is just plain irresponsible. Besides the Family Research Council shooting, incidents of death threats against conservative organizations and Christian pastors have cropped up because of the group’s much cited “hate map.” Instead of pointing out criminal behavior, the SPLC is more responsible for inciting it. Yet the media continue to use them to bash conservatives, as CNN and The Daily Beast did recently. – Kristine Marsh
