Cover Stories, News Make Way for ‘Saint Obama the Pious’ By Judi McLeod Launched to an unsuspecting world from stage prop Greek columns in the summer of 2008 as The Messiah who could walk on water, Barack Obama revealed today all he has since done is for Jesus.
All that was missing at the National Prayer Breakfast, when he claimed that guidance for what he is doing to the Free World comes from above, were the Gregorian chants.
Occupying the Lunatic Fringe By Michael R. Shannon Recently outraged Internet theologians took umbrage at my refusal to join the effort to transform Jesus into a big government, liberal Democrat that supports the Occupy squatters.
One Dead Canary Coming Up! By Daren Jonescu A few minutes past midnight on Monday, January 21st, 2013, someone will give birth to the day’s first American baby. With any luck, that baby will have become the first American to see his first light of day in a post-Obama world. That’s the good news. Unfortunately, the celebration of that good fortune will have to wait a while. For there is also some bad news—some really bad, you’d-better-sit-down-for-this, maybe-you’d-like-to-reconsider-this-whole-being-born-thing kind of news: That baby owes $185,000. Before interest. And that figure, even if the baby is born under a most propitious star, will grow by $5,000 per year, at least until he, along with the other babies born that day, is old enough to rise up and take action to stop the avalanche.

Hollywood Urges Obama to Pardon Killer By Cliff Kincaid
On top of the campaign to pressure New York Governor Andrew Cuomo to release terrorist killer Judith Clark from prison, the far-left is asking President Obama to grant clemency to Leonard Peltier, an American Indian activist who was convicted of the execution-style murders of FBI Special Agents Jack Coler and Ronald Williams.
February 4 has been declared “International Day of Solidarity with Leonard Peltier,” who was sentenced to two consecutive terms of life imprisonment.
A Politician, or a Statesman? By Joseph Harris In today’s political society of corruption, the crying need of the hour is for people of real character and integrity to enter the arena as Jimmy Stewart did in the classic film, Mr. Smith Goes to Washington. In his innocence and simplicity, Mr. Smith believed his job in Washington was to accurately represent his constituents and support measures for the common good of all, with the Constitution as his guide. Mr. Smith arrived in Washington, not as a politician seeking personal gain, but as a statesman on a patriotic mission. Is your elected official a politician or a statesman? It is pretty easy to find out. See how he or she measures up below with these top ten contrasts, and then send a copy to them.
Muslim Firsters and Israel Firsters By Daniel Greenfield If you were to suggest in a public forum that just possibly Israel’s failure to reach a peace agreement with a terrorist organization, run by kleptomaniacs and homicidal maniacs, which still continues to applaud the murder of Israeli children, might possibly be due to the terrorists and not because of Israel, then, according to the consensus of the left, you are an Israel Firster.
The loudest knock on ‘Spooky Dude’s’ Door By Judi McLeod “Why is no one looking into George Soros?” Glenn Beck asked Richard Poe, celebrated co-author of The Shadow Party: How George Soros, Hillary Clinton, and Sixties Radicals Seized Control of the Democratic Party, on GBTV last Wednesday. “Why is this ‘class warfare’ on everybody else except for George Soros?”
“I think I paid a huge price for going after George Soros. But I ain’t dead,” Beck said, “Quite honestly, I thought that was an option.”
American Politics, Freedom ‘Loosers’ Of The Day By Bob Parks You listen to some of today’s young people and they way they speak of themselves and others gives off an air of superiority. However, while their spelling almost instantly gives them away (“loosers”), their job applications do not.

Black conservative at Newt party: where are the black people? By Lloyd Marcus I attended Newt Gingrich’s party at the Rosen Centre in Orlando last night. Over a hundred media outlets were there. Despite not winning Florida, the mood of Gingrich supporters was extremely upbeat; waving signs, “46 States To Go!” Gingrich’s speech was awesome! He talked about overturning Obama’s policies to which the crowd was elated. He did not mention Romney at all.
Jan Brewer’s photo with Obama By Phyllis Schlafly The now-famous picture of Arizona Governor Jan Brewer shaking her finger at President Barack Obama is both appropriate and deserved. In America, we don’t have rulers entitled to the deference and obsequiousness other countries show to their kings; our elected officials are ordinary citizens whom we are free to criticize.
Truckers oppose longer and heavier trucks provision in highway bill By Online Grain Valley, Mo., – Small-business truckers across the United States are speaking out against a provision in the proposed highway bill that would increase truck size and weight limits.

UFOs, Abortion, and the Novelist Who Poses with Typewriters By Rev. Michael Bresciani In a Wikipedia entry under ‘Frances Parkinson Keyes biography’ is found a finely preserved picture of the late Mrs. Keyes sitting at a typewriter. There is no paper in the typewriter and there is no paper to be seen anywhere in the room. Obviously the picture is posed, and because Keyes was the author of over fifty books, no one would think twice about the lack of paper in the photo.

Canada Conn Smythe left his mark on Toronto and hockey By Clare Westcott
Constantine sounds Italian…But his mother was English and his father came from Ireland. In fact they were married on the boat on their way to Canada. His only sister died at 12. His mother became a drunk and died at 38 when he was 11.
His dad worked as a reporter and often his beat was the old Woodbine racetrack. They lived modestly and moved many times from one place to another.

The “Revolutionary Parliament” and the New Governmental Order in Egypt By INSS On the eve of the first anniversary of Egypt’s January 25 revolution, the country’s first parliament in the post-Mubarak era convened its opening session.

For the first time in dozens of years, representatives elected in free and fair elections occupy the seats in parliament. Dr. Saad al-Katatni, a senior Muslim Brotherhood official, was chosen as speaker of the parliament.
Green Agenda Faces Existential Crisis: Green Subsidies No Longer Affordable By Online Across Europe, cash-strapped governments have come to the same conclusion: we can’t afford to prop up renewable technology. They are reacting accordingly. Subsidies for costly clean energy technologies, mainly solar and wind, are being slashed. With governments from Rome to Athens to London cutting basics such as pensions and healthcare, it is not surprising. Worries are increasing that Europe’s economic woes will claim yet another victim: the green agenda.—Danny Fortson, The Sunday Times, 29 January 2012
Forget Email, Have Business Class Video Calls on Any Device Handy By Online Imagine you’re in the United States, but you speak no English.

ANWR—Is President Obama Serious About Domestic Oil Production? By Institute for Energy Research In the State of the Union, President Obama touted a rise in U.S. oil and natural gas production. But he failed to note that oil production on the West Coast and Alaska is down. This means that the West Coast is importing more and more oil instead of using domestically-produced oil. President Obama admitted in the State of the Union that energy production creates jobs, so why isn’t he opening up new areas like the North Slope of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) for oil and gas production?
T. Boone Pickens on Natural Gas Prices: Pet Technologies More Important Than Consumers By Institute for Energy Research Recently T. Boone Pickens appeared on CNBC’s Squawk Box to discuss the virtual endorsement of the “Pickens Plan” that President Obama had given earlier that week. Amidst the repetition of sensible goals such as “developing our own resources” (that the Administration’s policies actually don’t achieve), Pickens made an offhand remark that is quite revealing of the mindset of those who want the federal government to centrally plan America’s energy sector. Pickens made it crystal clear that if the choice is between affordable energy for consumers, versus the development of newfangled technologies, he will vote against the consumers.
Winter half over: Green thumbs are twitching By Wes Porter Halfway through winter and down in the valley the willows are indicating spring is on the way. Twigs of our native black willow, Salix nigra, have turned orange, while those of introduced weeping willows, S. babylonica, from eastern Asia are a bright yellow. Just a minute there – didn’t you just say weeping willows are from eastern Asia? So why does the botanical name suggest they originated in the fabled Babylon?
