Obama King Herod of His Day?
 By Judi McLeod

Someday it will go down as one of history’s most indelible ironies: the man who imposed birth control on Catholics was one without a valid birth certificate or any other kind of provable identity.

This is how future generations will read about how it all happened:


Catholicism and Freedom: A Moment of Truth
 By Daren Jonescu

The recent stand-off between the Obama administration and the Catholic Church is producing an effect that may prove to be more historically significant than the immediate battle over freedom of religion. A problem that has been growing within the Church for decades has finally burst into the light: the conflict between Church leaders and a significant portion of the flock on the subject of political freedom.


Obama includes Canada in his `King of World’ territory
 By Judi McLeod

imageCanadians, watching the Fundamental Transformation of the United States of America, from the safety of over-the-border observation, consider themselves too distant from the expanding Marxist policies of the President Barack Obama regime.

Even the many who worry about American friends losing jobs and homes would admit “It’s not like being there”.



I Will Love You Threescore More
 By William Kevin Stoos

image“Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her.” Eph 5:25

Years ago, I wrote a column in William Loeb’s Manchester Union Leader.  Although I would get some nice reader feedback now and then, I never really knew whether my column made any difference or whether anyone cared. But, as it often happens in life, now and then someone comes along who touches you in a very special way and makes it all worthwhile. John McVitty was a spirit-filled, elderly gentleman who was madly in love with Bessie—his wife of sixty years. He, more than any man I ever met, loved and adored his wife—whom he called affectionately, “Mommy.”


Man Up, Republicans!
 By Alan Caruba

image“I’m beginning to think Obama will be reelected”, writes a friend, a conservative and a Republican who is having grave thoughts about the narrowing GOP field of candidates. He is not alone as I hear similar thoughts from others.

As he put it, “Approximately 45% of the people think this idiot is doing a good job.”

There is a solid 30% of voters (and those who do not bother to vote) who are hardcore liberals, immune to facts and the reality of the destruction of both the Constitution and the economy being perpetrated by Barack Obama.


Unknown volcanes caused the Little Ice Age
 By Dennis Avery

Churchville, VA –Here we go again. Regular readers will remember that a couple of weeks ago Christopher Columbus was being blamed for the Little Ice Age (AD 1300 to 1850). Now, a new computer “study” announced that volcanoes caused the Little Ice Age! A research team led by Gifford Miller of the University of Colorado says eruptions of four volcanoes just before AD 1300 spewed huge amounts of sulphates into the air, which cooled the Arctic and “grew” the Arctic ice sheets and glaciers.


Just a Taste of a Second Obama Term
 By Doug Patton

First, he came for the General Motors bondholders, but the religious leaders were not GM bondholders, so they did not speak up. Then he came for the oil companies, but they were not oil company executives, and again they did not speak up. Next, he came for control of the nation’s health care system, and again they saw no threat — in fact, many of them supported his plan.


Why unions hurt the middle class
 By David A. Nace

For decades we have been told that unions help the middle class.  We have heard it from unions, from politicians that receive union contributions and from a sympathetic media.  However, when one examines the facts this claim is completely false.


The Liberal Uses of Race
 By Daniel Greenfield

imageRacism is about many things, but it isn’t about race. To understand the uses of race in American liberalism requires understanding its place in the political culture. When American liberals speak of race, they aren’t speaking in the genetic sense; what they are doing is clumsily piggybacking class onto race and adding one dubious construct to another.

The placement of racial politics at the center of liberal advocacy coincided with a growing national prosperity that seemed to be on the way to making class warfare of the old kind irrelevant. Previous liberal civil rights activity had been a subset of class, but class now became a subset of race. And both were a means of liberal self-definition as the people concerned with the plight of the downtrodden.


‘Agenders’ and Right Wing Conspirators
 By Dr. Ileana Johnson Paugh

A recent article in the Atlantic Monthly, “Is the UN Using Bike Paths to Achieve World Domination?” by Andrew Cohen, drew my intense attention. It was not because I particularly cared for the author’s writings. It was his vitriolic description of people who oppose ICLEI and the United Nations-driven “sustainability initiatives” regarding land use in the United States as “right wing conspiracy theories,” promoted by “Agenders.” 



American Politics, Freedom

Exploiting our general welfare
 By Online

The recent controversy over Obama’s attempted coercion and erosion of religious liberty reminded me of an essay Thomas Sowell wrote shortly after the oil spill. Sowell made the case that the U.S. is on the slippery slope to tyranny, cited the action by the Obama administration regarding compensation for the oil spill victims as an example. He wondered, “[j]ust where in the Constitution of the United States does it say that a president has the authority to extract vast sums of money from a private enterprise and distribute it as he sees fit to whomever he deems worthy of compensation? Nowhere.” And Sowell is correct. Just as Obama acted in such a manner then, his latest antics show that the slope is getting more slippery.

Healthcare Reform Violates First Amendment: Forces Abortion Insurance Mandate
 By Christian Newswire

WASHINGTON,  The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACT) violates the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment by forcing some individuals to personally pay a separate abortion insurance premium in defilement of their religious beliefs, according to “friends of the court” (amici curiae) filed with the Supreme Court by the Life Legal Defense Foundation, Bioethics Defense Fund and others.


The Death of Logic
 By Sarge

Where do we begin? Let’s start with the cosmological Big Bang Theory.

In pre-history, nothing came together with other quantities of nothing and so aggravated nothing it became excited and created an explosion of such colossal proportions the space dust came together as it split apart (?) and the universe was born.


Obama’s Continuing Assault on the Constitution
 By Heritage Foundation

With tens of millions of Americans watching, Barack Obama stood at the West Front of the U.S. Capitol on January 20, 2009, with his left hand on the Bible and his right hand held aloft, swearing to God and country that he would preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. Yet despite that pledge, President Obama has time and time again taken actions contrary to the principles of the founding document he swore to uphold, setting forth on a heretofore uncharted path of unconstitutionality that will fundamentally change the character of this Republic for the worse, not for the better.


Samuel L. Jackson: look beyond race, assess the man!
 By Lloyd Marcus

Are you as sick of hearing me talking about race as I am talking about it? For crying out loud, all I ask is that liberals please, please, please look beyond their emotions and Obama’s skin color and honestly assess the man. It is stunning that liberals still think I should be totally committed to supporting this man solely because he is America’s first black president and we share the same skin-color.


Obama: Violating Much More than Conscience
 By Rev. Michael Bresciani

In his latest show Gov. Mike Huckabee was seen interviewing a Catholic priest, as they spoke, the Governor said that since the Catholics have come under attack “we are all Catholics.” The audience accepted what he said and while they knew the Governor was not referring to some giant ecumenical switch to Catholicism he was stating the obvious. When the government suspends or denies first amendment principles to the church, be it Protestant or Catholic, we all tend to close ranks.


Down a Dark Alley
 By Michael Oberndorf, RPA

There is a serious flaw in the Constitution. It contains no recourse for We, the Governed, in case the entire government becomes unresponsive to our wishes, and consistently acts without our consent. This is the situation we are faced with, today.


Shariah’s Police?
 By Frank Gaffney Jr.

Over the weekend, a drama with potentially horrific consequences for freedom-loving Americans played out half-a-world away.


Is Speaker Boehner making a deal with the Obama Administration to stop Fast & Furious?
 By Sher Zieve

There is a story quickly spreading on the Internet advising that Speaker of the House John Boehner is making or has already made a deal with the Obama Administration to end Chairman Darrell Issa’s investigation of the DOJ’s Fast & Furious debacle. 

This investigation began when it was learned that the US Attorney General Eric Holder had ostensibly supported and been behind the supplying of US guns—including large numbers of assault weapons—to the Mexican drug cartel; the Sinaloa cartel in particular.


Canada
Nothing Says Poverty Like a Spa Retreat
 By Canadian Taxpayers Federation

WINNIPEG, MB: The Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) is calling on the Prairie Valley School Division (PVSD) today to explain why it is planning a 2-3 day spa retreat just after it discusses funding concerns with the Education Minister.

UN body at centre of Emissions Trading Scheme storm
 By Steve Milloy

As the salvos come fast and furious between those in the aviation industry for and against the European Union’s Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS), Roberto Kobeh Gonzalez has become the man caught in the crossfire.


Power and Weakness in Zion
 By Daniel Greenfield

The liberal deconstruction of Zionism begins with the Jews as the victims and ends with the Jews as oppressors. To understand their mindset it is enough to see a protest banner of the Star of David transformed into a Swastika paralleling the journey from concentration camp victim to concentration camp guard.


IER files comment on EPA’s proposed light-duty rule
 By Institute for Energy Research

WASHINGTON D.C. — The Institute for Energy Research filed a comment yesterday with the Environmental Protection Agency regarding a proposed rule to establish light-duty vehicle greenhouse gas emission standards.  Citing numerous fatal flaws in EPA’s proposed rule, IER opposes the rule in its current form and asserts that EPA should not regulate greenhouse gases from vehicles under the Clean Air Act.


Watching Pennies Pays Off
 By Canadian Taxpayers Federation

Home improvement experts say the key to laying down flooring is to take extra care with the first few rows of tile. If those first tiles are even a tiny bit out of place, the floor will seem completely crooked at the end. It’s all about taking care of the little things first—a good model for governments spending our money.


Lawfare - the Legal Warfare
 By Online

Islam is at war with the West, using unconventional weapons that keep Europe and America in ignorance or denial.  These were the WMDs (Weapons of Mass Destruction) that Islam had all along, but that we failed to recognize. 


Executive Guide to a Failed State’s (Greece) Fiscal Battle Drama: Part 1
 By Bob Parks

The Greek government’s problems are equivalent to an individual’s problems when he can’t pay his loans and can’t meet daily expenses. The Greek government can’t pay for its daily expenses, ignoring any payments of interest or due bond redemptions.
