Roman Catholicism Transcends Politics

Congressman,
What do you mean that the Pope's: "remarks transcended Catholicism?" The substance of Catholicism is that it is a universal faith and in public affairs promotes the common good by its very nature. There are narrowly focused religions that promote their aims exclusively and without regard for the common good and Roman Catholicism is no such public ideology. The founders of this country created the environment for the free exercise of religion based on Judeo-Christian principles. Roman Catholicism does not need to transcend itself but it is at the heart of the founding of this nation.

Several of those men who played key roles in the creation of the United States of America were Catholics. Chief among them were three members of the Carroll family of Maryland: Charles Carroll, the only Catholic signer of the Declaration of Independence; his cousin Daniel Carroll; and Daniel Carroll's brother John Carroll, who became America's first Catholic bishop. 
Charles Carroll of Carrollton (1737-1832) was the most illustrious and best-known of the Carrolls. He was the only signer whose property Carrollton was mentioned in the Declaration of Independence. 
At the time he signed the Declaration, it was against the law for a Catholic to hold public office or to vote. Although Maryland was founded by and for Catholics in 1634, in 1649 and, later, in 1689 after the Glorious Revolution placed severe restrictions on Catholics in England, the laws were changed in Maryland, and Catholicism was repressed. 
Catholics could no longer hold office, exercise the franchise, educate their children in their faith, or worship in public. With the Declaration of Independence, all this bias and restriction ended. Charles Carroll first became known in colonial politics through his defense of freedom of conscience and his belief that the power to govern derived from the consent of the governed. 
Daniel Carroll of Rock Creek (1730-1796) was a member of the Continental Congress (1781-1783), and a signer of the Articles of Confederation. He was a delegate to the Constitutional Convention and one of only two Catholic signers of the United States Constitution. (The other Catholic signer was Thomas Fitzsimons of Pennsylvania.) At the Constitutional Convention, Daniel Carroll played an essential role in formulating the limitation of the powers of the federal government. He was the author of the presumption enshrined in the Constitution that powers not specifically delegated to the federal government were reserved to the states or to the people. 
John Carroll (1735-1815), Daniel Carroll's younger brother, was educated in Europe, joined the Jesuit order, and was ordained a priest. During a period when the Revolutionary War was going badly, Washington asked John Carroll to join a mission to Canada to seek the support of the French for the colonies. Benjamin Franklin, Samuel Chase, and Charles Carroll of Carrollton were the others on the four-man mission. While it failed, it established a relationship with the French, much influenced by the Catholic faith they held in common with the Carrolls. It bore fruit years later at Yorktown, where the largely Catholic-financed French fleet cut off supplies to British general Charles Cornwallis, and Washington was able to force Cornwallis to surrender and bring the war to an end. 
John Carroll was an intimate of Washington. He wrote a prayer at the time of Washington's inauguration asking God's blessing on the president, Congress, and government of the United States a prayer still very much in use today. Out of gratitude for John Carroll's support during the war, Washington gave a modified version of the seal of the United States to the institution that is now Georgetown University, and that seal is still in use. 
Roman Catholicism in the founding of the United States contributed to the free exercise of religion enjoyed today by Muslims, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists, and others, including those of no faith; it is not a narrowly focused political ideology needing to transcend itself for political and public approval.
Respectfully,

Progressive Era

Progressive Era

Judge Andrew Napolitano explains how the progressive era was marked by a huge expansion of the federal government and its power to regulate the states and individual behavior. The Sixteenth Amendment to the Constitution, authorizing the federal income tax, gave the government increased control over our hard-earned money; and the Seventeenth Amendment, providing for popular election of senators, removed an important obstacle to federal control of the states.

Judge Andrew P. Napolitano, Fox News Senior Judicial Analyst, is a graduate of Princeton University and the University of Notre Dame Law School. He is the youngest life-tenured Superior Court judge in the history of the State of New Jersey. Judge Napolitano lectures nationally on the U.S. Constitution, the rule of law, civil liberties in wartime, and human freedom. He has been published in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, the Los Angeles Times, and numerous other publications. His weekly newspaper column is seen by millions every week. The Judge is the author of seven books on the U.S. Constitution, two of which have been New York Times best sellers. His most recent book is Theodore and Woodrow: How Two American Presidents Destroyed Constitutional Freedom.

Ian Hunter, BBC Radio 2, Russell Davies Interview

Post BBC Radio 2 - Ian Hunter the Art of Artists
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b085fykt

First broadcast 26 December at 23.00 - hour long programme - available for another 29 days on BBC i Player radio

Russell Davies interviews Ian and charts the musical family tree of the legendary Mott the Hoople front man from his time in a prize-winning skiffle band to being given All The Young Dudes by David Bowie - a song that saved the band from splitting up. Ian talks about how early life in a factory prepared him for the rock'n'roll life of hard knocks and how Barry Manilow of all people came to cover one of his songs.

It sounds like this was produced by the same team that produce Johnny Walker's Sounds of the 70s and from listening to the broadcast it was made recently. Ian mentions touring Europe in 2017

Robust Network

Creating Robust Networks for Even More Devices

A ubiquitous and powerful Wi–Fi network is now so important for students, that colleges like the University of California, Irvine are prepping for students that haven’t even arrived yet. As students bring more connected devices to campus — EDUCAUSE estimates 61 percent will have at least two — it has gotten even harder for universities to provide the bandwidth needed.
With a combination of network optimization, creative IT policies, and research to prepare for the incoming Internet of Things, universities are being proactive about creating the networks of the future.

1972 Election

Nationally, the election of 1972 is remembered for Richard Nixon’s decisive victory over the Democratic nominee, George McGovern. Nixon had been elected president in 1968 on a “law and order” campaign, winning the support of moderate voters who were growing wary of the pace of change, the increasing radicalism of activists, and the images of hippies and protesters on their television screens. What Nixon called his “silent majority” propelled him to victory, and continued to support him even as support for the war in Vietnam diminished.
McGovern, a liberal senator from South Dakota, called for an end to the Vietnam War and a guaranteed minimum income for the poor. He won the Democratic nomination despite opposition from the party’s establishment. Many states held primary elections for the first time in 1972, and McGovern did well in the primaries, where party leaders often had little influence. But the grassroots activists who had led his primary campaign couldn’t engineer a victory in the November election. Nixon carried every state but Massachusetts and won the popular vote by a margin of 60.7 percent to 37.5 percent.
Despite Nixon’s landslide, both houses Congress remained firmly in the hands of Democratic majorities. But in the South, there were signs of the change that would eventually give the Republicans a national majority.

Galaxy Moonbeam Night Site: Election

This episode of Galaxy Moonbeam Night Site finds the Galaxy guys looking at this election year. With the Presidential Election next Tuesday, we look at how campaigning has changed over the years, but also how it has remained the same. Nastiness in campaigning has been bad recently, but that has gone on for many years, even going back to the earlier years of this country. We also have a quick look at collectibles, from buttons and bumper stickers, there are some neat collectibles from election years gone by.  Join us as we wind down this election year on Galaxy Moonbeam Night Site, on the Galaxy Nostalgia Network.

The newest batch of John Podesta’s hacked emails released by Wikileaks shows Obama’s transition team kept lists of Muslim candidates for jobs in the administration:

https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/28660

An aide writes:
"In the candidates for top jobs, I excluded those with some Arab American background but who are not Muslim (e.g., George Mitchell). Many Lebanese Americans, for example, are Christian. In the last list (of outside boards/commissions), most who are listed appear to be Muslim American, except that a handful (where noted) may be Arab American but of uncertain religion (esp. Christian)."
Also notable, there was concern that some of the Muslims suggested would not survive media scrutiny, with one aide writing, “High-profile Muslim Americans tend to be the subject of a fair amount of blogger criticism, and so the individuals on this list would need to be ESPECIALLY carefully vetted.”

She continues, “I suspect some of the people I list would not survive such a vet — but I do personally know, at least in part, virtually all of the candidates in the 1st two categories (but I know very few of those listed for outside boards/commissions).”

This follows a pattern of the Obama Administration using race and religion to determine hiring, with other leaked emails showing potential political appointees being labeled with an F for female, B for black, H for Hispanic, and M for Muslim.
 Another Wikileaks release showed the Obama transition team keeping extensive lists of non-white candidates for administration posts.

UN Anti-Semitism

In a highly politicized move, the United Nations has again revealed its disdain for Israel by passing an outrageous resolution that ignores and rewrites Jewish history dating back to the Old Testament. Members of Israeli leadership called the decision, "absurd," and "shameful and anti-Semitic."

The passage of this resolution is anti-Semitic and historically wrong. Christians in Defense of Israel's resolve to make perfectly clear our support of Israel and the Jewish people is now of the highest importance.


Today, in a vote 24-6 vote, with 26 countries abstaining, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), passed a resolution which minimizes Judaism's links to its holy sites of the Temple Mount and the Western Wall, refers to them only by their Muslim names, and condemns Israel as "the occupying power."

The UNESCO resolution attempts to erase the Jewish connection and rights to the Jerusalem holy sites.

As reported by the Jewish Press, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was incensed by the audacity of the vote.
 
"Speaking at a Bible study gathering at his home, the prime minister urged the members of UNESCO to go visit the Arch of Titus, and 'see for themselves' which treasures were plundered during the destruction of the Second Holy Temple in Jerusalem 2,000 years ago.

'Today it took a ridiculous decision denying the connection between the Jewish people and the Western Wall. It's like saying that the Chinese have no connection to the Great Wall of China and the Egyptians have no connection to the pyramids,' he said. 'What's next?'"

"The Western Wall was referred to as Al Buraq Plaza in the resolution, with its Hebrew name, the Kotel, in quotation marks only. UNESCO didn't even bother to do that with the Temple Mount, referring to it only in Arabic as 'Haram a-Sharif' and Al Aqsa Mosque.' The move clearly promotes the site solely as one sacred to Muslims alone, denying any sanctity or connection to Jews or Christians."

Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Representative Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL) wrote:


"This resolution flies in the face of, among other things, science as recent archeological excavations, notably in the City of David, have revealed incontrovertible, physical evidence that reaffirms Jewish and Christian ties to the holy city of Jerusalem."
