Catholicity, Orthodoxy, and Lordship
Kucinich may see UFO’s and endorse socialism–two things I pray I never see–but he has been a strong voice from the start opposing this unconstitutional war. The three Democrats standing simply do not have the courage of a Kucinich when it comes to the war. They are too entrenched in Washington politics.
Kucinich…see you in 8 years.
Thompson withdrew from the race. Many hailed him as the front runner before he entered the race. However, his third place in South Carolina was too overwhelming for a candidate who invested so much in his high positioning in that state. Fox reports:
Thompson was the closest to a Constitutionalist in the Republican race, save Ron Paul. Unfortunately, his position on the war was the same as the other four neo-cons on the stage. Thompson also considered himself a Federalist. As a southern and more traditional candidate, he may be orchestrating a possible VP move should a more moderate Republican win the nominee. Perhaps some of his supporters will take Federalism seriously and embrace a true Constitutionalist and the only peace candidate, Ron Paul.
This may be the boost every Paulinian has been expecting. The significance of this positioning is that it places Ron Paul in a state of prominence on Sunday and Monday news program both on TV and on the radio. I realize he will not be the star of the beltway boys, but I do know that every time the Nevada chart appears people will see Paul’s name right next to Romney’s.
In South Carolina, Fred Thompson will end in third or fourth. Either way it is a defeat for the Senator who invested so much in South Carolina. The most recent news is that Thompson and his advisors will spend tomorrow thinking about their new strategy. Will he continue in the race and draw evangelical votes away from John McCain or will he drop out and endorse McCain?
Ron Paul benefits tremendously today. Since Thompson and Hunter (the only two Reaganesque) are technically out of the race, Republicans will have to re-consider their priorities. Will they continue to support–as Neo Con National Review did–Mitt Romney, who is more than willing to adjust his positions to whatever state suitable or will they finally open their eyes to support the champion of the Constitution: Dr. Ron Paul.
I will be in Monroe, LA on the 7th-9th of January. In light of my absence I have posted two posts on Calvin’s exposition of I John 1:9 and I John 2:2. These two posts will appear on the website on the 7th and the 8th of January.
On Drudge there are two prominent links that favor Ron Paul. The first talks about the new records reached by the gold standard. Yes, that ancient commodity that never loses its value. Thank you Dr. Paul for teaching us about a true currency system. The second link on Drudgereport poses the question: Ron Paul fundraising king? Paul’s remarkable $20 million fund-raising is far above all other Republicans and closer to Hillary Clinton’s imperial campaign.
Perhaps Drudge will also report on Paul’s strong placing in the Iowa caucus.
FORMER Pakistani leader Benazir Bhutto has been killed in a gun and bomb attack.
Babar Awan, Bhutto’s lawyer, said: “The surgeons confirmed that she has been martyred.”
A witness at the scene of the attack said he heard two shots moments before the blast.
The United States condemned the attack.
Police said about 15 people had been killed in the blast.
This is an early Christmas! Iran halted its nuclear weapons’ development in the fall of 2003, which means Bush’s dire talk about World War III was rubbish and the socialist dictator Hugo Chavez received a resounding “NO” from his people. Chavez will not be Venezuela’s dictator for another 50 years. It looks like his dream to become the next Fidel has ended. It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas!
I have written two papers that will be posted at the website. The first paper is a brief, but helpful exposition of Revelation 20:1-10. The paper offers some introductory remarks on the major eschatological positions and defends the Postmillennial viewpoint in the latter part of the paper. Part 1 will be posted on Friday and Part 2 will be posted on Saturday.
The second paper is an analysis of Abraham Kuyper’s first lecture entitled: Calvinism a Life System. The lecture is part of a larger six lectures series delivered at Princeton. The paper summarizes Kuyper’s famous lecture and offers some critical, but yet, overall positive analysis of the Kuyperian viewpoint. This paper will be posted in the span of three days: Monday (10th) through Wednesday (12th).
