Despite concerns on the right that the movie was serving as a political propaganda piece for Team Obama, in actuality, the movie is rather apolitical, playing it pretty much straight down the middle. The movie does its best to avoid political commentary.
...And because we are given a movie that is evenhanded (were or were enhanced interrogation- oh, okay “torture”- not part of the narrative? It was, whether you agree they were effective or even necessary or not), those on the left are none too happy. I don’t believe the movie really makes the case for a pro-EIT agenda. It presents

In recent years Christmas has gotten a bum rap.
It´s become cheapened, materialized, even defamed. And too many people have tried to secularize the holiday as well. They´ve wanted to take the "Christmas" out of December 25.
Perhaps the greatest horror is that

And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.” ~An Angel, Luke 2:10-12

From il Papa´s Christmas Eve homily:
The question of God never seems urgent. Our time is already completely full. But matters go deeper still. Does God actually have a place in our thinking? Our process of thinking is structured in such a way that he simply ought not to exist. Even if he seems to knock at the door of our thinking, he has to be explained away. If thinking is to be taken seriously, it must be structured in such a way that the “God hypothesis” becomes superfluous. There is no room for him...

"And unto you a child is born." With that promise Earth was given the promise of a light unto all men, a light that will lead us to our salvation if only we choose to accept that path. Even if you are not a Christian, even if you’re not especially religious, if you claim another religion or none at all, the path that Christ walked when he was born into this world is a path from which we all can all learn. It is one worthy of study and acceptance even if only as an example of a way to

Alright, kids, NORAD is once again tracking Santa´s progress across the world this Christmas season. If you kiddies want to find out where Santa is right this very minute, have mom and dad help you dial 1-877-446-6723 or visit NORAD´s Santa tracking website. The North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) has been tracking Santa since 1955, and it all started by accident.

Roland Martin wants us all to see the dead bodies of the victims of the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary school. He imagines that this is the only way stupid Americans can "get" the shooting. In a new editorial, CNN contributor Roland Martin wants to put on display the murdered children of Sandy Hook in some grisly panoply that he thinks will help America agree with his anti-gun agenda.

After Wednesday night´s CNN special, Guns in America, it has become clear that Piers Morgan is one thrown chair away from being the newest Jerry Springer. After he indulged his latest shoutfest and bout of name calling, Morgan has shown that he is no more serious as a commentator and interviewer than the syndicated tabloid talker.

It was a mixed message from the Old Media establishment at the President´s December 19 news conference about the newest "crisis" he is pushing. As Obama appeared before America to talk about the gun "crisis" and his decision to hand it off to Joe Biden, instead of asking about Obama´s gun agenda, the media deluged him with questions about the fiscal cliff.

Recently on CBS, Bob Schieffer generously bestowed a Harvard degree on actor Ben Afflack a degree in Middle Eastern Studies, no less. This would be a surprise to Mr. Affleck because the actor only attend a little college, never got a degree, and certainly never attended Harvard.

O HOLY NIGHT - wonderfully performed by Josh Groban.
This is truly my favorite Christmas song because it ain´t about Santa or toys or fighting Druids or Gaia worship or sparklies.
At its core, Christmas is a religious holy day celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ upon this earth. I´m puzzled as to why pagans, secularists, and anti-theists wish to indulge their hypocrisy by participating, however superficial or profane, in a Christian holy day - then denigrate and marginalize the very essence of the reason for the season, Jesus Christ.
Yet they´ll gladly pocket the holiday pay.
Oh, well. I´m tolerant.
Merry Christmas, anyways.

News that the Treasury Department’s Inspector General has opened an investigation to determine whether three solar companies inflated the cost of their work to increase the payments they would receive from the government should send shivers down the spine of the taxpayer-subsidized green energy industry.
...SolarCity is the most interesting of the names on the list. Its Chairman, Elon Musk, is an Obama supporter who has used taxpayer funds, not once, not twice but three times to enrich himself.

Was there anything about the Sandy Hook massacre the media got right on the day it happened? In their rush to be first, they ignored their obligation to be right. Nearly every detail they disseminated Friday was wrong, even down to the name of the killer.

Fr. Lemieux has words of wisdom for us all on this Christmas Eve:
Christmas for most people can become a frenetic time. Lots to do—decorating, cooking, shopping, traveling perhaps—and lots of activities and events: parties, meals, caroling, family rituals, maybe even the odd church service.
While that is the nature of festivity and as such is right and proper (if a bit fatiguing), it can get us a bit out of balance if we are not careful...

Guns did not place those children in harm’s way. The NRA did not place those children in harm’s way. Even the lunatic with the gun did not place these children in harm’s way…. Liberalism’s deadly fairy-tale of Gun Free School Zones placed those children in harms way.
The president and his children are protected by guns. Are our kids worth less?

This is a video vignette from the Barack Obama eulogy of Daniel Inouye at the Senator´s memorial service in Hawaii on Sunday.
It should come as no surprise that the focus of the President´s eulogy was not the Senator but was himself using the words me, my and I more than 50 times!

Gun free zones mean gun free for those who would abide by the law only and map out a killing zone safe for those who would illegally conceal a weapon and commit murder.
That is crazy.
What is it that liberals want? They claim they want an assault-weapons ban, a ban on high-capacity ammunition clips, and background checks on all gun purchases. I have no objection to any of them but the fact is together they would not have prevented Newtown. Not at all. Nancy Lanza’s weapons were legal. At close range her handguns were as lethal as the rifle. Adam Lanza
