Second Amendment News Roundup for 5/20/08

Focusing on guns and politics, here is today's Second Amendment News Roundup:

Did you know that tax dollars are now being used to fund Muslim schools in this country, although it is against the law to do that for a Christian school or any other religious school? A news crew was attacked at one such Muslim school, and Michelle Malkin has the story:

Malkin also reports that U.S. Senator Bob Corker, R-Tennessee, has told the Tennessee GOP to 'shut up' its criticism of Michelle Obama's anti-American hate speech. Senator Corker, YOU shut up!:

Now go and read THIS from Say Uncle, in defense of the Tennessee GOP:

Tam comments on Google's attempt to get our health records. When it comes to Google, why am I not surprised? These are the people who agreed to squelch free speech so they could do bi'niz in Communist China:

Appalling! Note how the Secret Service is treating the men and women of the 82nd Airborne Division in getting them ready for a Presidential visit. Heartless Libertarian has the story (h/t to FreedomSight):

Born Again Redneck has SPLENDID news! An Oregon county has declared itself a 'U.N.-free zone!' This is a good idea for the whole country:

John Lott takes to the woodshed the so-called 'scientists' who believe in man-made global warming over their attempt at a 'sleight of hand' technique to explain why the earth will COOL over the next 10 to 15 years:

Mike McCarville reports that lots of folks in Oklahoma are laughing about a Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee staffer who was sent to Oklahoma from Washington to support Democrat Andrew Rice for the U.S. Senate. It seems the blogger made colossal errors that won't be helping Rice at all:

Hi,D. Martyn Lloyd-Morgan

"Did you know that tax dollars are now being used to fund Muslim schools in this country"
I could not verify this, can you help?

JMB,

The Muslim school in question, located in Minneapolis, Minnesota, is a Charter School. Charter Schools are funded with tax dollars.

And this not the only Muslim school getting such public funds. There are more.

But regarding the particular school in question, go back to Michelle Malkin's link provided above, and then click on her links. All the information is there.

My Bad, Thanks. I've placed a link to your post (Second Amendment News Roundup for 5/20/2008) on my sidebar.

No problem, JMB. And welcome to The Liberty Sphere.

Thanks for the link.
