Wade -- President Obama's White House issued a press advisory noting that the president would meet with Pope Francis on March 27.

Pope Francis Sends Prayers to March for Life

Matt Philbin
It’s been almost a year since Pope Francis began his pontificate, and the liberal media has hung on his every word, searching for evidence the head of the Church is an ideological, if not theological ally. The results have sometimes been ridiculous, as when Reuters called the Pope’s recent strong condemnation of abortion “a nod to conservatives” to placate their “criticism.”

Column: John Kerry, Jihad Coddler

The myth of the poor, oppressed jihadist never dies. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry is the latest Obama administration official to peddle this odious narrative. Cue John Lennon's cloying "Imagine," don your plaid pajamas, and curl up with a warm cup of deadly naivete. While meeting with Catholic Church officials at the Vatican in Rome on Monday, Kerry expounded on their "huge common…

Rep. Keith Ellison: Islamist Terrorists Struggle For Democracy Like We

Whatever the question, politicians have a way of working their issue of the day into the answer.  Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minnesota) took that tendency to new heights today.

Bill Maher Compares Disgraced Christie Aide to...Pope-Emeritus Benedic

Comedian Bill Maher compared Bridget Kelly, the former Christie aide connected to "Bridge-gate," to the Pope-emeritus Benedict XVI on Tuesday's Hardball.

CNN Spins Pope's 'Blunt Words' on Abortion as Reply to 'Conservative

Tuesday's New Day on CNN followed the lead of Reuters in giving ideologically-tinged reporting about Pope Francis's latest condemnation of abortion.

USA Today: Obama’s Contraception Mandate ‘Foolish,’ ‘Suspect

At least one government watchdog is learning to bark again. USA Today’s Opinion section dedicated “Today’s Debate” to religious freedom – or the fight over Obamacare’s contraception mandate.

Book: Christians Shown As ‘Hateful Stereotypes in Today’s Movies

This isn’t a new book, but now, finally released in soft cover, it’s every bit as important to Christians and pop-culture watchers it was in 2009. Because, as you might guess, the cultural atmosphere that produced Peter E. Dans’ “Christians in the Movies: A Century of Saints and Sinners” hasn’t changed much. Hollywood has turned its back on Christians in the movies – or rather – its decided…
