Quick links, May 22. Includes Chris Kyle and the Duggars


Bill Passed: Texas Highway to be Named in Honor of ‘American Sniper’ Chris Kyle
 . . . "The Texas Senate passed House Bill 1187 designating a segment of U.S. Hwy 287 in Midlothian, as the Chris Kyle Memorial Highway." . . .

While Obama was quick to host alleged deserter Bowe Bergdahl’s parents at a Rose Garden ceremony that celebrated his release in a highly controversial prisoner swap, he couldn’t even pick up a phone and spend two minutes of his time to offer his condolences to the wife of a real American hero.


 Funeral procession for Chris Kyle in Midlothian, Texas.

The family handled the issue as Jesus instructed us to in the Gospels. If I was party to this and was aware it was handled with confession, sorrowful repentance along with hatred for what he had done accompanied by counseling, I would want to keep the issue within our family. We should be vigilant and constantly aware of the presence of temptation.
I see genuine sorrow on the part of Josh and his family, which I did not see in the Clinton sex scandals -the Clintons tried to destroy Bill's victims - nor in that of Anthony Weiner (to name just two). This in no way is to excuse Josh's actions, but to simply express sadness that modern morals have left our culture insensitive to sins such as this, in fact, not even able to understand the the term "sin". I believe that in the eyes of liberals Josh's most egregious "sin" is that of being a Christian and a conservative. 
The liberal media can now, as liberal reporter Carol Costello would say, just “sit back and enjoy” before angrily faking moral indignation.    The Tunnel Dweller

Bad decision: The move comes one day after the network decided to air a marathon of the show heavily featuring Josh (above with wife Anna and children Mackynzie, Marcus and Michael)
