Monday, May 12, 2008More Obama Support for Liberal Judicial ActivismIn my Weekly Standard from mid-March, I showed how Barack Obama’s record and rhetoric on judicial nominations reveal him to be “a leftist partisan who will readily resort to sly deceptions to advance his agenda of liberal judicial activism.” In a softball interview with CNN's Wolf Blitzer last week, Barack Obama provided...

Miriam, a 9-month-old orangutan orphan who's learning how to climb a tree, almost scales past her trainer when I approach. For good measure, she starts to cry.

"How did the evangelical movement get so far off track? I wouldn't suggest that evangelicalism's recent obsession with political activism is the only factor, but I do think it's a major one. If the same energies and resources that were poured into failed political efforts had been channeled into evangelism instead, I'm convinced that would have been instrumental in producing more spiritual...
