http://www.parentalrights.org/index.asp?Type=B_BASIC&SEC={B56D7393-E583-4658-85E6-C1974B1A57F8} I was just thinking that some people really may not know that much about the UNRC. Most homeschoolers know it all too well, and last year, I actually went to the UN website and took a look at the actual treaty myself. It is unthinkable to me that our gov't would give up so much, and yet, here we are on the threshold of such. It is so sad.

New satellite photos from Google Earth show in unprecedented detail the concentration camps in North Korea that the government of Kim Il Jong has consistently claimed do not exist. Previous satellite photos have shown only blurry images, but the new photos released by South Korea’s Unification Ministry allow a closer look at the sites, and disclose that they have grown in recent years, the Daily Mail reports. Amnesty International has compared the new satellite photos with others taken 10 years ago and confirmed that they have grown, branding them “hellish.” “The outside world certainly doesn’t know what’s going on and very little from the inside comes out,” said Am…

38th annual March for Life the biggest and most enthusiastic ever! As hundreds of thousands of pro-life advocatesmake their way to the Supreme Court today, they are focused on two key battles: combating the pro-abortion agenda of President Barack Obama and stopping taxpayer funding of abortions.
