Have you noticed how the Obama campaign has stepped up its class warfare rhetoric as we draw closer to Election Day? President Barack Obama constantly resorts to this tactic because he’s simply unable to defend his own record in office, as 23 million Americans are out of work or underemployed and the economy remains in […]

Stephen Moore, of the Wall Street Journal’s editorial board, reported Friday that the Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate from Arizona, Congressman Jeff Flake, has little support among some powerful big businessmen in Arizona: “In his razor-tight race for Arizona’s open Senate seat, Republican nominee Jeff Flake — a six-term U.S. congressman — recently met […]

President Obama, I’d like to follow up on my most recent column and ask you a few more questions, please. I am assuming you don’t dispute that our nation faces a very serious financial problem, with unfunded liabilities in excess of $100 trillion. I use the word “assuming” because I don’t remember you ever spending […]

Will President Obama announce a deal with Iran for a moratorium on the enrichment of uranium, in return for the dismantling of some international sanctions against the regime? And will the announcement be timed to appear just before the election? Reza Kahlili (the pseudonym for a former CIA operative in Iran’s Revolutionary Guards), the author […]

THOMAS: There is a lot of evidence of moral decline in America. What do you think is the chief cause of it? SEN. MCGOVERN: I think there’s deterioration in some areas in terms of the moral tone of our society, but not across the board. I think you can make a pretty strong case that […]

25 years ago, on another Monday in late October, the financial world seemed to disintegrate in a heartbeat. Though: the 205 point drop in the Dow last Friday (the technical anniversary of the ’87 Crash) was somewhat reminiscent of its 108-point drop on Friday, October 16, 1987, the real action in ’87 was on the Monday […]

Unlike the flotilla of a few years ago which caused so much damage to Israel, this time around Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu praised the Israeli military’s operation to seize a Swedish-owned ship attempting to break Israel’s naval blockade of Gaza. As Netanyahu said: “Their entire objective was to create a provocation and blacken Israel’s name. […]

This past Friday the State Department released internal docs showing that Chris Stevens, U.S. Ambassador to hell’s corridor in Libya, begged Obama’s boys in D.C. to ramp up security in Benghazi. And, as we all know now, he got nothing from the State Department but was allowed to be tortured and murdered by “democracy seekers” […]

Progressives are not having a good week. After a debate “victory” for President Obama, which amounted to simply being caffeinated because the bar was set so low after the first debate, his Libya lies are still haunting him. Yes, moderator Candy Crowley saved his bacon in the moment, but she ended up costing him by […]

You can take the President out of the hate filled church, but you can’t take the hate filled church out of the heart of the President. Now that things are getting tough on the campaign trail, Barack Obama is reaching out to his former spiritual mentor again. President Obama is getting so desperate about Romney-trending […]

Remember Cindy Sheehan? She started out as a sad story that made it into the spotlight – a woman who lost a son fighting overseas. Everyone felt sorry for her. Then she blamed Bush for her son’s death and while people started to get a little uncomfortable, they still understood. Then, the Left made her […]

How will this election be seen in history? Obviously, it depends on who wins. If Barack Obama is defeated, the irresistible comparison will be with Jimmy Carter. A one-term president was rejected after pursuing big government programs amid high energy prices and attacks on America in the Middle East. Actually, that’s not entirely fair to […]

There is a temptation to get lost in the weeds of when President Obama recognized that the Libya attack was, indeed, an act of terror. But the key point is that Obama treated the anti-Muslim YouTube video as a provocation for the attack as if they had a moral equivalency. Otherwise, why constantly mention the […]

Ze’ev Jabotinsky: was a Zionist prophet whose words should still be remembered: “A great commotion is currently afoot in Zionism, caused by the community of the seekers of peace, whose intention is to achieve (by way, of course, of preaching to the Jews alone) agreement with the Arabs. Frankly, it is difficult to avoid a feeling […]

While all national attention is focused — indeed riveted — on the seven to nine swing or battleground states, a major shift is taking place in the rest of the country: Voters are turning from President Obama and to Mitt Romney. In the forty states where the Obama campaign has not spread toxic negative ads […]

When he ran for governor of California in 2010, Jerry Brown traded on cryptic pledges — most notably, “no new taxes without voter approval” — that, like pronouncements by the oracle at Delphi, could mean whatever listeners wanted to hear. Most insiders figured that Brown wanted to raise taxes but was too cagey to tell […]

Very rare that someone from inside liberal New York media circles releases a hard-hitting book which urges people and companies to protect their brands. The Founder of: 5WPR, a top 25 US Public Relations agency recently released his first book, “For Immediate Release: Shape Minds, Build Brands, and Deliver Results with Game-Changing Public Relations” which has […]

After a wave of outrage stopped President Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton from signing the proposed UN gun control treaty (called the UN Arms Trade Treaty), the treaty advocates are back with a devilish new strategy. As we warned in “Here Come the Black Helicopters: UN Global Governance and the Loss of Freedom,” […]

It was arguably Ronald Reagan’s favorite joke. In one version, two kids — one an optimist, the other a pessimist — rush downstairs on Christmas morning. The pessimistic kid gets a new bike and weeps that he’ll probably break it soon. The optimistic kid is presented with an enormous pile of manure and squeals with […]

It’s funny to hear a woman whose entire political career was based on marrying the right man make this argument about women in the workplace – especially since she’s not very good at her job – but truth is still truth, even if: Hillary Clinton is the one saying it. “I can’t stand whining,” Clinton told […]

As you’re about to see, this cold blooded quote from Barack Obama… If four Americans get killed, it’s not optimal. –: Barack Obama ….inspired scathing responses on Twitter. Candy Crowley’s fact checking skills.: #notoptimal – Brittany(@iamBryttaknee): October 18, 2012 :  If I died for my country and the biggest reaction my prez had was to say it’s: #NotOptimal, I’d […]

After hearing a couple of conservatives RAVING about how funny Mitt Romney was at the Al Smith dinner last night……. 5)I’m glad to be able to join in this memorable tradition. And of course I’m pleased that the president is here. We were chatting pleasantly this evening as if Tuesday night never happened. 4) Campaigns […]

Liberal celebrities want all of the adoration that social media engagement has to offer — but none of the accountability that actual: engagement requires. For the Hollywood elite, it’s “do as they say, not as they tweet.” But actress and outspoken Obama campaign co-chair Eva Longoria learned a hard lesson this week on Twitter: Conservatives online […]

It was arguably Ronald Reagan’s favorite joke. In one version, two kids — one an optimist, the other a pessimist — rush downstairs on Christmas morning. The pessimistic kid gets a new bike and weeps that he’ll probably break it soon. The optimistic kid is presented with an enormous pile of manure and squeals with […]

I can only scratch the surface here, but the following are a few of the questions I would like to see President Obama answer in a debate. Mr. President, your confidante Valerie Jarrett once said: “There’s nobody more self-critical than President Obama. Part of the burden of being so bright is that he sees his […]

When 2012 began, the presidential race looked too close to call, but most analysts thought the Republicans had a good chance to win control of the Senate. The numbers were just too daunting for the Democrats. They had too many seats to defend and too many vulnerable incumbents. Now, 10 months later, the race for […]

“Congress has failed put in place a farm bill for the first time in more than 60 years,” says a reporter for station WBNG in New York State. U. S. Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack debates this however: “President Obama has a strong record of supporting America’s farmers, ranchers, and rural America. Today, agriculture is […]
