Hollywood Hatefest
Tonight's Hollywood Hate Bush Event provides a good opportunity to point you to a great Michael Medved piece on why those offended by Hollywood's products need to do less complaining and more creating.

Actually, both complaining and creating are necessary. If conservatives wish to take action, the best start would be to stop consuming the products which display these harmful values. With the availability of excellent free entertainment content screening sites like Focus on the Family's Pluggedinonline.com and the meticulous Screenit.com, both of which have detailed descriptions of content in hundreds of films, anyone one who pays for a ticket to a movie that offends him has no excuse. Channel deletion and V-chip technology on TVs are also helpful, but there is still plenty of harmful content even if they are used. Many parents elect to refuse cable service altogether and entertain themselves and their children with select videos and DVDs. Some extremists even use books.

If you would like to tell media outlets why you have stopped consuming their pernicious products, you can use this Townhall.com link to send an e-mail or letter.

Barbarians With Nuclear Weapons
Topic: Nuclear Terrorism

I thought it important to post this link now, even though the PoliticalDevotions.com site is still under construction. This Wall Street Journal essay by the editor of Commentary magazine
really demonstrates how our civilization exists at God's sufferance, and why, in an age of nuclear proliferation among rogue states, active citizenship is essential. It is a long piece and brings up many issues, so it violates the act-on-one-issue-in-ten-minutes premise of this site, but it's too important to ignore.

I will be adding a "Take Action" page to the site, but in the meantime, if you wish to express your views on foreign policy and homeland security you can follow this link to use a handy Townhall.com utility that allows you to write an e-mail or letter to nearly all your reps and the media in just one click.
