Cover Stories, News Diabolical American Propaganda Storm Fogs Republic as 2012 Race Ticks Down By Kelly OConnell All societies coexist with elements of propaganda, in one form or another. Most typically, politicians use propaganda in order to win over the credulous, while anathematizing their enemies. Yet, the level of propaganda now regularly encountered in the United States is truly staggering. For a recent example consider how Obama presents himself as godlike when in a 2008 speech he promised:
Santorum and St. Thomas Versus the Catholic Bishops By Daren Jonescu In a recent interview with Hugh Hewitt, Rick Santorum, a practicing Catholic, levelled some very harsh words at the Conference of Catholic Bishops. While siding with the bishops’ recent opposition to President Obama’s imposition of abortion upon Catholic hospitals, Santorum nevertheless stated bluntly that the Church “had it coming.” Not only was Santorum right in saying so, but his words ought to initiate a more open public debate among Catholics regarding their leaders’ consistent support of the political Left. The fundamental issue here is not abortion, but rather Christianity’s position on the proper role of government.
UK elderly are “wasting too many bedrooms” By Anna Grayson 
London, England-In yet another outrageous piece of social engineering from our coalition government, pensioners will be encouraged to downsize to smaller properties allowing local councils to rent their homes out as council houses and manage the tenancy.
Local authorities will ‘help’ older people move from their homes into ‘more suitable accommodation’. Grant Schapps, the Housing Minister, who is a conservative member of parliament claims the scheme will solve a so-called ‘housing crisis’ as well as creating a system that will ‘permit access to various sources of wealth’ that are currently not being used to pay for care.
Countdown to Zero in Tehran and Jerusalem By Daniel Greenfield 
There was a time when Israel did not deal with existential threats by urging the Americans to do something. That time was fairly recent. When Saddam decided he wanted to have his own nuclear reactor, fourteen Israeli Air Force jets put an end to his dream. The year was 1981.
The Reagan Administration supported a UN resolution condemning Israel which stated that it was in “clear violation of the Charter of the United Nations and the norms of international conduct” and which fully recognized “the inalienable sovereign right of Iraq, and all other States, especially the developing countries, to establish programmes of technological and nuclear development.”
A winter postcard By Anna Grayson 
London, England—When it snows in London, it’s a magical time. Last night it became more Switzerland than the city by the Thames. Any street or park that has even the minutest hint of an incline has a sled on it today. And the British are actually talking to one another in the street, even if it’s just to say ‘Oooch it’s cold today, but rather lovely’. ‘Lovely’ is a superlative for a Brit – it shows they are really happy. I can hear shrieks of delight coming from the kids in my street.
I’ve taken some pictures in my neighbourhood which I think will make some of you hardy North Americans smile. I can almost hear you chuckling ‘Snow – you call that snow? Why that’s a mere dusting of icing sugar on a strudel!’ That may be so, but it’s enough to shake off the mundane and steer even the most hardened Londoner into memories of childhood and stories of winter wonderlands. We were issued a level 3 weather warning (we only have 4) for this. I can hear another wallop of laughter from across the pond.
The Looney Tunes Version of the GOP Campaigns By Alan Caruba I have begun to think of the Republican campaign as a series of Looney Tunes cartoons being replayed again and again. They are filled with a combination of laughs and the fantastical, self-defeating violence of Wily Coyote trying to catch the Roadrunner
Rep. Herger is wrong about Agenda 21 By Henry Lamb To listen click here
California Representative Wally Herger offered an article on Agenda 21 which, unfortunately, reflects a lack of knowledge about Agenda 21 - shared by far too many elected officials. In the first instance, he said that Agenda 21 is a document developed at a U.N. Conference in 1993.
Hunnud Pussent By Jimmy Reed In reading and writing, I found rhyme and reason, but not in arithmetic. As best he could, my mentor, Jaybird, explained it. Although illiterate, he had been taught by life’s most demanding teacher: experience. His wisdom filled many gaps in my education.
President Obama and his administration’s misplaced concern By Jerry Philipson President Obama and his administration are concerned that Israelis may launch a unilateral attack against Iran’s nuclear facilities in order to destroy them and thus prevent the Iranians from attacking Israel with nuclear weapons in an attempt to obliterate the country and remove it from the face of the earth, as they have pledged to do many many times. Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta believes that Israel will attack within the next six months, possibly as early as April, because after that a successful unilateral attack will be much more problematic due to increased Iranian fortifications.
ObamaCare Abortions: Will Catholics Vote for Him A Second Time? By William Kevin Stoos During the last presidential election, Catholics voted by a margin of 55-45% for the most pro-death President in history. Of course, he started out by covering up the crucifix at Georgetown before delivering a speech, so as not to offend Muslims or Atheists, proceeded to declare that “America is not a Christian nation,”, then bowed before a Saudi king. Therefore, should we be surprised when this secular humanist, pro-abortion President now attacks religious freedom by backing regulations which force Catholic hospitals—against their will and the tenets of their religion—to fund and or even perform abortions or risk sanctions and closure?
American Politics, Freedom West Virginia Sheriff, Clerk Snared in Vote Fraud Investigation By Warner Todd Huston A Lincoln County, West Virginia Sheriff and Clerk are to plead guilty to charges of vote fraud in the 2010 Democrat primary after the pair were arrested during an election fraud investigation conducted by state and federal authorities.
A Beating and Racial Slurs – but No Hate-crime Charges By Selwyn Duke Ah, the left-wing capacity for rationalization knows no bounds. While we’re told that even substantive criticism of Barack Obama is driven by the hatefulness the left has dubbed “racism,” a racial attack by three black teenagers on two white men in Philadelphia this past Monday is, somehow, not.
The Legacy of Busing By Bruce Walker In the 2012 presidential nomination season, it is worth reflecting on that process forty years ago. In 1972, the Republican nomination was pretty much a slam dunk for RINO Richard Nixon. Contrary to what leftists would have us believe today, conservatives did not want Nixon to be president. Conservative Republicans supported Congressman John Ashbrook for the Republican nomination against incumbent President Nixon, and in the general election, another Republican Congressman, John Schmidt, ran as a third party conservative and more than one million conservatives voted for him in the general election.
Judge Malihi Decides Against Plaintiffs of Obama’s Georgia Eligibility By News on the Net DECISION
Plaintiffs allege that Defendant President Barack Obama does not meet Georgia’s eligibility requirements for candidacy in Georgia’s 2012 presidential primary election. Georgia law mandates that candidates meet constitutional and statutory requirements for the office that they seek. O.C.G.A. § 21-2-5(a). Mr. Obama is a candidate for federal office who has been certified by the state executive committee of a political party, and therefore must, under Georgia Code Section 21-2-5, meet the constitutional and statutory qualifications for holding the Office of the President of the United States. Id. The United States Constitution requires that a President be a “natural born [c]itizen.” U.S. Const. art. II, § 1, cl. 5.
Trump’s Paper Tiger Rebellion Against Conservatives By Daren Jonescu In the spring of 2011, Donald Trump threatened to start a revolution within the Republican Party, appealing to the naive among Tea Partiers by promising to take on President Obama as no one else could. All too many members of the conservative media, including even some highly reputable ones, took his nonsense seriously.
Obama’s Attempt to Reshape Capitalism By Al Kaltman In People of Plenty: Economic Abundance and the American Character, published in 1954, David Potter made a compelling case for the proposition that the United States is a nation whose national character has been shaped by the perception that there is limitless economic abundance. He argued that Americans believed that wealth could be created while Europeans believed it could only be redistributed. Americans and Europeans would both answer “I do!” to the question “Who wants to be a millionaire?” The difference was that Americans believed it was possible, with the right combination of intelligence, hard work, a little luck and good timing, to become a millionaire. Europeans held no such illusions.
Obama Speech at National Prayer Breakfast: Insincere Theological Farce By Rev. Michael Bresciani Glancing down at his notes every few seconds, Mr. Obama managed to get through what looked like the worst drudgery of his day at the National Prayer Breakfast.
Reclaiming Robin Hood By Tim Dunkin Maybe it’s just a personal idiosyncrasy, but one thing that annoys me greatly is when people draw misleading or overblown historical analogies to try to support some argument they want to make. For instance, the way some writers try to fit American history into the mold of the Roman Empire – now we’re in the Imperial Era, with George Bush as our Claudius, and Obama as our Nero, mourning the lost days of the old Republic.
A Free Market Solution By Daniel Greenfield In her article, Three Cheers for Romneycare, Ann Coulter insists that Romneycare and its mandate was a Free Market Solution. Of course a government mandate to buy a product is not a “free market” solution, it is a slave market solution. Using a government mandate may be a market based solution but there is nothing free about it. The purchaser isn’t free not to buy. The seller is only able to move the product through coercion and has to qualify with the government to be able to force-sell the product.
Fool me twice By Caroline Glick Former US congressman Robert Wexler is a man worth listening to. Wexler served as then-senator Barack Obama’s chief booster in the American Jewish community during the 2008 presidential campaign. He appeared everywhere and said anything to convince the American Jewish community that the same man who sat in the church pews listening to Rev. Jeremiah Wright’s anti-Semitic vitriol for two decades, and listed among his closest friends and associates a host of Israel-haters as well as former terrorists, was the greatest friend Israel could ever have.
Canada Ontario trailing the world…Again By Online NORTH BAY – Nipissing MPP Vic Fedeli says it’s time Ontario started paying attention to a growing global trend in green energy.
Recent CFP Columns Wind farms to wipe out California Condor By Online Save the Eagles International (STEI) issues a biodiversity warning concerning the California Condor. Having spent tens of millions of dollars of taxpayers’ money to recuperate the species, politicians are now allowing its habitat to be invaded by hundreds of wind turbines, of the kind that are killing 2,000 vultures a year in Spain (1). But if Spain has a population of 40,000 vultures, there are only 400 California condors, most of them likely to have close encounters with Kern County’s projected wind turbines at some point in their long lives - unless the birds are kept captive, as many presently are. The North-American Platform against Windpower (NA-PAW) and the World Council for Nature (WCFN) hereby join STEI in this warning.
Admission: Journalists are Liberals Not Interested in Facts and Truth By Warner Todd Huston Polk Award-Winning Rolling Stone writer Michael Hastings made a startling set of admissions on CSPAN, recently. Not only did he admit that most “journalists” are liberals, but he implied that they really aren’t interested in just reporting the facts of stories. Instead, he said, they are filled with a liberal “moralistic righteousness” and their goal is to “afflict” those they disagree with.
A Southern Black History Month Moment By Calvin E. Johnson Jr. The following story should be included during Black History Month.
A magazine article in 1989 caught my eye about a black child, a Confederate President’s First Lady and the Southern Presidential Family. The story was written by Gulfport, Mississippi freelance writer Mrs. Peggy Robbins and is entitled, “Jim Limber Davis.”
U.S. intelligence chief warns of cyber “Cold War” By Jim Kouri The U.S. House of Representatives and Senate should pass legislation to increase cyber security—in both public and private sectors—since the country is involved in a “type of cyber Cold War,” stated the U.S. Director of National Intelligence James Clapper on Thursday during a congressional presentation.
GUN CONTROL. . . . no right answers? By John Longenecker Think again, please.
Group stirs up Superbowl fever to support troops overseas By Online Sacramento, Calif. - For the second consecutive year, the nation’s largest grassroots pro-troop organization, Move America Forward, is raising money for US Troops overseas with a special “FANTASY SUPERBOWL” drive to send care packages to troops in need serving in Afghanistan.
IER Statement on Administration’s New Fracturing, Oil Shale Regulations By Institute for Energy Research WASHINGTON D.C. — The Obama administration released today a draft of new Interior Department regulations regarding hydraulic fracturing that are designed to impose yet another layer of bureaucratic obstruction to full-scale development of America’s oil and natural gas resources. Additionally, the administration released a plan to close public lands in Western states to oil shale development, effectively limiting access to a region that contain more than 1.5 trillion barrels of recoverable oil.
Mrs Tom Brady Models Mass-Murderer By Humberto Fontova At the São Paulo fashion show on July 15, 2002, supermodel Gisele Bundchen catwalked wearing a glamorous bikini consisting entirely of faces of Che Guevara, who rarely bathed and constantly reeked of “boiled liver” and “rotting fish” according to his early comrades and surviving victims.
