Get ready for Operation Smear Benghazi Whistleblowers. Capitol Hill hearings this Wednesday on the deadly 9/11 consulate attack by jihadists will feature […]

Live Free or Move

Forty-three million Americans moved from one state to another between 1995 and 2010 — about one-seventh of Americans. It’s good that we can move! Moving provides one of the few limits on the megalomania of state bureaucrats. Americans have moved away from high-taxed, heavily regulated states to lower-taxed, less-regulated states. Most don’t think of it […]

Words That Replace Thought

If there is ever a contest for words that substitute for thought, “diversity” should be recognized as the undisputed world champion. You don’t need a speck of evidence, or a single step of logic, when you rhapsodize about the supposed benefits of diversity. The very idea of testing this wonderful, magical word against something as […]

Honest Examination of Race

One definition given for insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results; it might also be a definition of stupidity. Let’s look at some cities where large percentages of black Americans live under poor conditions. Experiencing a violent crime rate of 2,137 per 100,000 of the population, Detroit is […]

Benghazi: Beginning of End of Obama

Americans can stand pretty much anything but not being lied to by their president. When Bill Clinton lied about his relationship with Monica Lewinsky, his personal favorability ratings dropped twenty points and never recovered for the duration of his presidency. As the Benghazi hearings unfold, it will become more and more clear that President Obama […]

Niall Ferguson’s blooper

At an investment conference last week, Harvard historian Niall Ferguson created a huge mess for himself. He glibly speculated that maybe because economist John Maynard Keynes was a childless, “effete” homosexual, he embraced a doctrine that favored immediate economic gratification. Keynes’ bon mot “in the long run, we are all dead” takes on new meaning […]

Will Tyranny Ever Come to America?

Last week, President Obama traveled to Ohio to speak at the Ohio State University commencement. There, he trotted out his new favorite line of attack against Second Amendment advocates: He said it is unpatriotic to believe in the possibility of government tyranny. Why? According to Obama, the Founding Fathers created our government. The American dream […]

Rachel Marsden: Is America about to checkmate Russia?

PARIS — As U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry meets with his Russian counterparts this week in Moscow to discuss Syria, much of the world is wondering what America’s endgame is.

Germany Under Pressure To Create Money

Currently, central banks around the world are walking in lock step down a dangerous path of money creation. Led by the Federal Reserve and the Bank of Japan, economic policy is driven by the idea that printed money can be the true basis of growth. The result is an unprecedented global orgy of currency creation. […]

Benghazi Truth Begins to Surface

To quote some Shakespeare, “at the length truth will out.” When it comes to Benghazi it would have come out at much shorter length if the media didn’t have to be dragged kicking and screaming to report on it, but in the end it will out all the same. We already know that US jets […]

NC House Votes To Return Many Gun Rights

This should drive Joe Biden nuts: instead of restricting the gun rights of North Carolina citizens, the NC House voted to extend them. (WRAL) State House lawmakers voted late Monday night to allow concealed weapons on college campuses, state property, greenways, bike trails, at sporting events and in businesses that serve alcohol. Proponents of House […]

Obama to College Students: You can TRUST BIG GOVERNMENT!

The greatest President of our lifetime was Ronald Reagan, who once said, “The nine most terrifying words in the English language are, ‘I’m from the government and I’m here to help.’” On the other hand, the worst President of our lifetime has been Barack Obama and he’s telling college students that they can trust big […]

Admiral DEFIES THE MILITARY BAN on Sharing His Christian Faith

Under Barack Obama, our military has begun infringing on the First Amendment Rights of soldiers to share their Christian faith. But not everyone in service is willing to lie down and take the crackdown on Christianity. At least one soldier is standing up for his faith. Faith in the military took center stage Thursday at […]

Dick’s Sporting Goods Sees Sales PLUNGE After Banning Guns

Dick’s Sporting Goods had a choice: It could serve its customers or it could serve the gun grabbers on the Left, who were demanding that Dick’s stop serving its customers. Dick’s Sporting Goods went in the wrong direction and now it’s paying for it. Last Christmas many Dick’s customers were sent one mean lump of […]

Bouncing Ball Politics

If you are driving along and suddenly see a big red rubber ball come bouncing out into the street, you might want to put your foot on the brake pedal, because a small child may well come running out into the street after it. We all understand that an inexperienced young child who has his […]

My Mom’s Advice for America (Part 1)

On Mother’s Day weekend 2012, many of you probably watched my 91-year-old mom, Wilma Norris Knight, being interviewed by a friend of ours, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, on his Fox News Channel show, “Huckabee.” WorldNetDaily also reported on her television special. If you didn’t catch it, you still can view the interview on my […]

Would Things Go Better With Koch?

“Mainstream media” are alarmed by reports that billionaires Charles and David Koch are considering the purchase of Tribune Company’s eight daily newspapers, including the Los Angeles Times. When Warren Buffett spent $344 million to purchase 28 newspapers, there were mostly sighs of relief from journalists glad to keep their jobs. However, reaction to reports of […]

“progressives” in The Media

The American mainstream media has long been sympathetic to the “progressive” cause. For decades they have made subliminal editorial decisions regarding their reportage in favor of “progressive” concepts and candidates. They, along with teachers, professors, Hollywood producers, screenplay writers and actors have slowly, carefully but consistently nudged American thought farther to the left. Case in […]

Soft Drink Mountain Dew Pulls Ad Over Charges of Racism

PepsiCo, Inc, owners of Mountain Dew soda, has pulled an online video ad after viewers complained of its use of racial stereotypes. The ad also seemed to be making light of violence toward women.

You Need to Spend Money to Waste Money

In order to spend wastefully to the point of collapsing our economic system, the government uses our money to enable still more spending. For example, A Washington group is criticizing the Senate immigration bill because it allows for up to $150 million for organizations to advertise citizenship opportunities and to help illegal immigrants sign up […]
