Government Pirates: The Assault on Private Property Rights--and How We Can Fight It
After years of hard work and saving, you finally own a home. But don't get too comfortable If government officials decide they want your property, they can take it for a wide variety of shady reasons that go far beyond the usual definition of "public purposes." The courts have allowed these injustices to persist. And there is nothing you can do about it not yet. Real estate developer and property rights expert Don Corace offers the first in-depth look at eminent domain abuse and other government regulations that are strangling the rights of property owners across America. Government Pirates is filled with shocking stories of corrupt politicians, activist judges, entrenched bureaucrats, greedy developers, NIMBY (Not-in-My-Backyard) activists, and environmental extremists who conspire to seize property and extort money and land in return for permits. Corace provides the hard facts about individual rights and offers invaluable advice for those whose property may be in danger. It is the one book that every property owner in America has to read. .

Neo-Conned!: Just War Principles: A Condemnation of War in Iraq
Refuting the myth that America's socially conservative thinkers, journalists, and commentators tend to support the war in Iraq, this text incorporates the opinions of some of the leading figures in America's conservative movement on why the decision to go to war and the continuing occupation of Iraq was and is the wrong course of action. Twenty-five articles by influential thinkers such as former presidential candidate Pat Buchanan, syndicated columnists Sam Francis, Joseph Sobran, Eric Margolis, and Charley Reese, leading economist Jude Wanniski, social critics Tom Fleming and Paul Gottfried, and religious figures Bishop John Michael Botean and the late Alfredo Cardinal Ottaviani make the case against the Iraqi conflict using conservative arguments on geopolitics, Christian morality, and common sense. Four detailed appendices on the war teachings of the Roman Catholic Church are also provided. .

The Condemnation of Little B.
"A narrative that crackles with tension and enormous empathy. . . . Extraordinarily powerful." —Publishers Weekly Through the story of a thirteen-year-old black boy condemned to life in prison, Elaine Brown exposes the "New Age" racism that effectively condemns millions of poor African-Americans to a third world life. The story of "Little B" is riveting, a stunning example of the particular burden racism imposes on black youths. Most astonishing, almost all of the officials involved in bringing him to "justice" are black. Michael Lewis was officially declared a ward of the state at age eleven, and then systematically ignored until his arrest for murder. Brown wondered how this boy could possibly have aroused so much public resentment, why he was being tried (and roundly condemned, labeled a "super-predator") in the press. Then she met Michael and began investigating his case on her own. Brown adeptly builds a convincing case that the prosecution railroaded Michael, looking for a quick, symbolic conviction. His innocence is almost incidental to the overwhelming evidence that the case was unfit for trial. Little B was convicted long before he came to court, and effectively sentenced years before, when the "safety net" allowed him to slip silently down. Brown cites studies and cases from all over America that reveal how much more likely youth of color are to be convicted of crimes and to serve long—even life—sentences, and how deeply the new black middle class is implicated in this devastating reality..

Rejoicing in the Lord Jesus in All Cases and Conditions: Together With Two Sermons, "the Hope of the Saints in Heaven" and "a Christian's Freedom from Condemnation in Christ" (Puritan Writings)
"I’ve got a wonderful feeling. Everything’s going my way." These words from the famous musical, "Oklahoma!" describe the basis for the feelings of most people—they can be happy and rejoice when things are going their way, but not in all cases and conditions In this book, the English Puritan Robert Asty reminds us that we are to rejoice in the Lord Jesus no matter what the circumstances are in which the Lord may place us. We place too high a premium on the condition of our bodies, and therefore place too low a premium on the salvation of our souls. But the Apostle Paul commands believers to rejoice in all things. The Lord Jesus is the ground of joy, says Asty, if we have a saving interest in Christ. As in so many Puritan writings, this book contains an abundance of encouragement and hope for believers. This book also contains two sermons that have not been included in any modern reprints. The sermons are on Colossians 1:5 and Romans 8:1..
