Year: 2012

Behind closed doors, the nations of the world are negotiating a treaty — initiated by Russia and China — to regulate the Internet through the United Nations. There are only two reasons we know about these talks in the first place. One is through a WikiLeaks anonymous posting by a participant in the talks and […]

When a politician is in trouble, he usually falls back on what he knows best — the world he saw around him when he entered into political awareness as a young adult. That’s what seems to have happened to the Democratic ticket after Barack Obama’s disastrous performance in the Denver debate Oct. 3. So Obama […]

We had big fights over amnesty bills during the Bush Administration and Obama lacked the courage to bring the issue up even when he had an overwhelming advantage in Congress. Instead, he decided to implement a de facto amnesty: by refusing to enforce the law. The Department of Homeland Security’s 2011 Yearbook of Immigration Statistics was […]

Americans have lost confidence in their elected officials, the media, and the justice system – and that’s rational. “Stupid” came for a visit in America and: cases like this one prove it never left. A Detroit woman and her one-year-old daughter are being forced to live with a squatter in their own home until a housing […]

“Tainting the tea party movement with the charge of racism is proving to be an effective strategy for Democrats. There is no evidence that tea party adherents are any more racist than other Republicans, and indeed many other Americans. But getting them to spend their time purging their ranks and having candidates distance themselves should […]

October 12 marks the 12th anniversary of the bombing of the USS Cole. The grim milestone comes as President Obama faces mounting questions about his administration’s dereliction of duty during the murderous attack on our consulate in Benghazi, Libya. And it comes just a day after resurgent al-Qaida thugs pulled off the drive-by assassination of […]

After reading transcripts of Obama’s recent campaign stump speeches and watching his interview with ABC News’ Diane Sawyer, I am even more convinced he is every bit as clueless as he appeared in that fateful debate but also very deceitful. The money quote in Obama’s interview with Sawyer, who asked him what happened in the […]

Mitt Romney turned the tables on the president this week and is now spending more on television advertising in the swing states. Buoyed by a 64 percent increase in his television spending (vs. only 2 percent for Obama) Romney is spending $22.4 million on ads in Florida, Virginia, Ohio, Colorado, Iowa and Nevada compared to […]

According to Political Class pundits, the race for the White House was turned upside down by a single debate. The reality, however, is that a very close race shifted ever so slightly from narrowly favoring President Obama to narrowly favoring Mitt Romney. Either way, it remains too close to call. The difference is that voters […]

The hottest ticket on Broadway continues to be “The Book of Mormon,” a musical that pokes fun at the Mormon faith in particular and Christianity in general. It is also full of profanity and blasphemy. If there was a show called “The Book of Muhammad,” the Eugene O’Neill Theatre probably would have been burned down […]
