House Votes to Impeach Federal Judge From Louisiana
A House Judiciary Committee task force charged District Judge G. Thomas Porteous Jr.
On August 25, 1994, Porteous was nominated by President Bill Clinton and confirmed by the United States Senate on October 7, 1994.
He has controversially ruled in several landmark cases against the state, including one 2002 case in which he ruled that the state of Louisiana was illegally using federal money to promote religion in its abstinence-only sex education programs.[2] He ordered the state to stop giving money to individuals or organizations that "convey religious messages or otherwise advance religion" with tax dollars.
He had previously ruled in 1999 against a Louisiana law aimed at banning the late-term abortion procedure known as partial birth abortion in a procedure known as dilation and extraction.[4]
The Muslim Brotherhood in the United States
The Muslim Brotherhood is one of the most sinister organizations operating inside the United States. It has established front groups that have achieved success in advancing the Brotherhood's goals, and yet little attention is paid to the activities of these front groups seeking to undermine the United States and its efforts to defend itself.
The stated intent of the Muslim Brotherhood in the United States is to conduct an "organizational jihad" in order destroy the U.S. from within. Last year the Hudson Institute published Steven Merley's The Muslim Brotherhood in the United States. 
It is an impressive research monograph with the following synopsis:
The leadership of the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood (MB, or Ikhwan) has said that its goal
was and is jihad aimed at destroying the U.S. from within. The Brotherhood leadership has also said that the means of achieving this goal is to establish Islamic organizations in the U.S. under the control of the Muslim Brotherhood. Since the early 1960s, the Brotherhood has constructed an elaborate covert organizational infrastructure on which was built a set of public or "front" organizations. The current U.S. Brotherhood leadership has attempted to deny this history, both claiming that it is not accurate and at the same time that saying that it represents an older form of thought inside the Brotherhood. An examination of public and private Brotherhood documents, however, indicates that this history is both accurate and that the Brotherhood has taken no action to demonstrate change in its mode of thought and/or activity.
Three-Story Washing Machine
Part of the reason we are in Dire Straights. The other is spending.
The Tax Foundation has published Record Numbers of People Paying No Income Tax; Over 50 Million "Nonpayers" Include Families Making over $50,000:
A record number of the 142 million tax returns filed in 2008 resulted in no tax payment, according to a Tax Foundation analysis of IRS data. That means the tax filers got back every dollar that had been withheld from their paychecks, and often more. Roughly 51.6 million tax returns, or 36.3 percent, were filed by such “nonpayers,” people whose exemptions, deductions and credits wiped out any federal income tax due.
A family of four earning more than $50,000 can have no income tax liability after taking the standard deduction and the child tax credit.
“Two records were set in 2008: the most nonpayers and the highest-earning nonpayers,” said Tax Foundation President Scott Hodge.
