Nancy Reagan Endorses Iraq “Candy Diplomacy”

…from MoveAmericaForward.org:

A historic “candy diplomacy” program is being launched today that will provide U.S. Troops with 100,000 bags of the popular Jelly Belly gourmet jelly beans for distribution to the children and people of Iraq and Afghanistan.

The delicious candy treats made famous by Ronald Reagan are being sent over as additions to care packages for our troops, as part of a program called “Candy Diplomacy.” The innovative program is the result of a partnership between the nation’s largest pro-troop organization, Move America Forward, and the Fairfield, California-based Jelly Belly Candy Company.

Nancy Reagan said of her husband,

He would often break the ice in meetings by passing around his jar of Jelly Bellys. It had a way of putting a smile on everyone’s face and putting them in the mood to work cooperatively. I know the Iraqi and Afghani people will feel the warmth and goodness of the
American people when they get to try these treats.

Historic Support of U.S. Troops! (From the Front Lines)

…from Joe, of Move America Forward:

History is about to be made – and you can be a part of it. This June 26th, an unprecedented collection of patriotic leaders will be brought together – united by their shared support for the heroic service of the men and women of the United States military who are fighting on the frontlines of the war on terror. These leaders will come together to support the largest shipment of care packages to U.S. troops in history. In addition many will join with with our troops in Iraq & Afghanistan for an 8-hour Web-A-Thon (”From the Front Lines” from 4:00pm – Midnight, Eastern), to collect sponsorships for the largest single shipment of care packages to U.S. troops — in history. Ever.

The goal is to send the largest single shipment of care packages to U.S. troops in history. The shipment is scheduled to go out days before the 4th of July, as a gift from the American people to our military men and women – to thank them for ensuring that our nation remains safe and free. The entire effort is being organized by Move America Forward – the nation’s largest grassroots pro-troop organization. Individuals can sponsor care packages via the MAF website. Read more

Pay Attention to Barack Obama’s Theology

…Except for the hijacked terminology, there is nothing Christian about Obama’s heresy. Obama is a long time champion of what is known as “Liberation Theology,” an attempt to redefine Christianity in Marxist terms. In Liberation Theology, lip service is given Jesus Christ as our redeemer and savior, but first priority is given to the myth that the Christ taught liberating the poor and oppressed through political activism….(Abolishing Socialist Slavery)

Blogging While Female: 5 Conservative Women Bloggers Talk About Gender Issues And The Blogosphere

Personally, it has never even occurred to me to “go formal” when I do a radio show, nor have I ever worried about being considered “unserious.” That started my brain spinning like Speedy Gonzalez in a hamster ball: did Liz [Mair of the RNC Blog] and I look at the issue differently because we’re different people or because I’m male and she’s female? Are there lots of other little subtle differences between the ways men and women look at blogging that I hadn’t caught onto before?

[To find out] I reached out to a few of the more intriguing women on the right side of the blogosphere [Pamela Gellar, Rachel Lucas, Amanda Carpenter-pictured here, Ericka Anderson, and Michelle Malkin] and interviewed them about their backgrounds and gender issues. The results, as you’re about to see, are fascinating and in some cases, the abuse they have had to deal with is more than a little disturbing. Let’s start out with (…(John Hawkins: Right Wing News)

Hillary Clinton: A Question of Character

Her muse while a ninth grader was Reverend Don Jones, a Marxist who was later kicked out of Park Ridge United Methodist Church for advocating socialist views. He introduced her to a magazine called motive, which was published by the Division of Higher Education of the United Methodist Church. This was a magazine she would later be quoted in the 31 October 1994 issue of Newsweek as saying “I still have every issue they sent me.” She told the author of the piece in Newsweek that she treasured an article from a 1966 motive by Carl Oglesby called “Change or Containment”….(Sith Happens: Return of the Conservatives)
