Cover Stories, News 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. Read that as the elderly will have to raid their pension pots and hand over the equity in their homes - which they have spent a lifetime paying for – in order to put themselves into a care system which is notoriously unfit for purpose.
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?
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.
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.”
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.
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.
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.
American Politics, Freedom 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.
Job Growth Should Be Stronger By Heritage Foundation The Obama Administration and the nation have cause to breathe a sign of relief as today’s monthly jobs report shows 243,000 jobs were created in January. Those numbers are of course good news, another positive sign of recovery, and another clear indication of the enduring strength of the American economy and American economic system. But, really, so long after recession’s end, we should be doing much better — and would be but for President Barack Obama’s debilitating anti-growth policies. In reality, the economy is recovering despite — not because of — Obama’s policies. Make no mistake: 243,000 jobs is good, but we should be seeing numbers upwards of 350,000. America can and should do better.
Another Black History Month: the left’s favorite time of the year By Lloyd Marcus Alas, another Black History Month, or as the left likes to view it, their annual “Opportunity To Exploit Race Month.” It is the month in which liberals attempt to convince us that race relations in America have progressed very little since the days of police unleashing dogs on civil rights activists.
A Short Review of Obama’s Agenda By Alan Caruba What word describes a President who knowingly and deliberately decreases the nation’s access to energy by stopping an oil pipeline that will not cost the taxpayers a penny and will generate 20,000 jobs?
Tom Harkin’s whacky plan to nationalize private debt By Klaus Rohrich In the true spirit of winner-take-all class warfare, Senator Tom Harkin (D-IA), Chairman of the powerful Senate Health, Education, Labor & Pension Committee, suggested that the government force banks to write off bad mortgages, “especially…for the lower income.” Sure, why not? Obama screwed investors in GM and Chrysler with his autoworkers’ bailout. Why stop there? Let’s screw everyone with any assets, just to make sure that members of Harkin’s party continue to get reelected.
The Case of Dr. Chadwick and Useless and Expensive Regulations Gone Too Far! By Dr. Phil Taverna Regulations and laws are way out of control. And the more lawyers we have and the more government we expand the more regulations you will have and the more useless they become.
If We Don’t Win We Lose By Dr. Robert R. Owens America’s slide from the forefront of freedom to the swamp of collectivist social engineering didn’t start with the current manager of our decline and his Cavalcade of Czars. It didn’t start with President Obama’s favorite foil and arch-nemesis the man the Corporations-Once-Known-as-the Mainstream-Media love to hate, George Bush, the Younger. It didn’t start with the Bush-Clinton decade + 2 of continuous government growth, its thousand points of light or its thousand points of light or its Hillarycare.
Planned Parenthood vs Women: PP Getting Its Thug On! By Warner Todd Huston Recently the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Foundation announced that it was no longer going to be offering funds and grants to Planned Parenthood, the nation’s leading abortion mill operator. This decision has sent Planned Parenthood over the edge of both sanity and civility with a new fundraising letter that dispenses with its past staid talk about women’s healthcare and goes straight for thuggish threats of retaliation, finger pointing, and attacks on other women.
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 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.
EPA, IG and EPA confirm need for increased transparency in permitting process By EPW Blog Link to EPA OIG Report
Link to Press Release
Washington, DC - Senator James Inhofe (R-Okla.), Ranking Member of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works, welcomed a follow-up report released today from the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Office of the Inspector General (OIG). This report, “EPA Should Strengthen Records Management on Clean Water Act Section 404 Permit Notification Reviews for Surface Coal Mining,” delved more deeply into findings from the initial November 2011 OIG report requested by Senator Inhofe that confirmed that EPA, through its own actions, systematically slows the pace of permit evaluations in Appalachia. These findings were concerning enough to warrant the Inspector General to instigate this follow-up review.
Agenda-driven “science” at EPA By Online In December 2011, the Environmental Protection Agency released new Clean Air Act “National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants.” Once again, EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson touted the supposedly huge benefits of controlling emissions of mercury (Hg) and other air toxics from U.S. coal- and oil-fired power plants (or electric generating units, EGUs).
Palestine Poison Pill Paralyses UNESCO By David Singer Palestine’s admission as the 195th member state of UNESCO - in possible breach of UNESCO’s own Constitution - has become a very painful poison pill for UNESCO Director General Irina Bokova to swallow.
Silent classic, Sci-Fi classic, and Godly message come to Blu-ray By Jim Bray Three Blu-rays that have debuted over the past couple of weeks deserve mention, but for three very different reasons. One looks back, one looks ahead, and the third looks up for heavenly guidance.
