There are reports that the FBI notified Attorney General Eric Holder months ago that former CIA Director David Petraeus’ name had surfaced in an investigation that ultimately uncovered what Petraeus has now admitted – his involvement in an extramarital affair. Holder never told the President. The White House says it first became aware of the […]
After the blame game, name calling, and infighting subsides, Republicans of all stripes need to come together for one common goal. To win the election in 2016 in order to salvage what will be left of this country. We need a new 21st Century version of Republicanism that is more palatable to single woman and […]
The New York Times is full of outrage at the Israeli Defense Force (IDF) for its surgical bomb strikes launched against a few buildings in Gaza that held offices and studios of several international media outlets. But in its report the “paper of record” forgot to add one little fact: four highly placed terrorist leaders […]
When I first came to Washington in 2008, I was told that the American people are instinctively conservative, but functionally liberal, which was why a public that wanted budget cuts refused to touch the major costs in the federal government. This is a sentiment I have heard many times since, but back then it was […]
The Israeli military is doing all they can to avoid civilian casualties in Gaza. Hamas is doing all they can to target civilians (Washington Post) A bus bombing Wednesday morning brought the Gaza conflict to central Tel Aviv, as intensified fighting between Hamas militants and the Israeli military raised doubts about the prospects of a […]
Remember when the United States was the country building world renowned landmarks like the Hoover Dam (1936), the Empire State Building (1931), the Golden Gate Bridge (1937), the Chrysler Building (1930) and the Willis Tower AKA Sears Tower (1973)? Notice the dates. We sure don’t seem to be building ’em like we used to, do […]
It seems like a fair question using Clyburn’s own reasoning. Assistant Democratic Leader and Representative from South Carolina Jim Clyburn does not like the kind of criticism Ambassador Susan Rice has been exposed to for the willful lies and manipulations she tried to sell America in the wake of the attack on our consulate in […]
Jim Geraghty is a really smart and insightful guy, but I have to respectfully disagree with the theme of his latest column. So why are Republicans so much less popular than their ideas? A ubiquitous accusation from their Democratic rivals, echoed by an allied media, is that Republicans lack empathy to the point of displaying […]
I’m almost at the mark! I’m so excited. : I just have one more jar of Ovaltine to drink before I’m able to send in my application for the James Clyburn Racial Code Word Decipher. : It’s going to be useful — as we all try to make sense of the various racial code wards that have […]
By John Hawkins TPNN Contributor The Left has turned colleges in America into propaganda factories that are just as geared towards cranking out liberal voters as educating students. In order for this system to be feasible, it requires rank discrimination against conservative professors for their political beliefs in positions where politics should be irrelevant. If: Teresa […]
In the aftermath of the re-election of President Barack Obama, conservatives searched the heavens and the earth for answers. Some suggested that Mitt Romney lost because Republicans didn’t reach out more to Latino voters; some suggested that Romney lost because his “get out the vote” system fell apart on Election Day. Romney himself said that […]
Few things can make you appreciate home like staying in a hotel. This includes not only low-budget, bare bones hotels but also sweepingly large and ornate luxury hotels. What many hotels seem to have in common are needless hassles. Since most people who stay in hotels do so while traveling, and stay only a few […]
Yikes, we’re headed toward a fiscal cliff! It will crush the economy! Or so the media and politicians tell us. The “cliff” is a series of tax increases and budget cuts that automatically go into effect Jan. 1 unless Congress acts. Will Congress act? It will! I see the future: The politicians will meet and […]
Chandler Osborn, 14, watched Fox News coverage of Hurricane Sandy last week and decided to take action. “Last weekend, me and my younger brother, Cooper, 7, did a fundraiser in Colorado Springs to help the people” affected by the storm, he told me. The siblings set up a table at the Colorado Springs Sugar Plum […]
President Barack Obama narrowly defeated Gov. Mitt Romney in the popular vote 51 percent to 48 percent. In the all-important Electoral College, the difference was larger, with Obama winning 303 electoral votes and Romney 206. Let’s not think so much about the election’s outcome but instead ask: What’s so good about democracy and majority rule? […]
President Obama has several stated ambitions for his presidency. He wants it to be “transformative.” He wants to unite Americans of all parties. He wants to build an economy from the middle class out (whatever that means), and he wants to help what you might call the domestic refugees of America’s economic transformation. Given the […]
The Democrats may obsess over race, fail to understand basic economics and be incapable of governing, but they have learned one key lesson that Republicans just can’t seem to grasp: Winning in politics is all about being on offense. It doesn’t matter how good your explanations are; if you’re spending all your time on defense, […]
PARIS — A colleague mentioned earlier this week how thankful he is that he can tell anyone who deserves it to go take a flying leap. (Actually, his precise words are unprintable, but you get the idea.) At first glance, such uninhibited opinion-sharing might seem rude and unacceptable, but upon further reflection, it becomes clear […]
Despite the breathless post-election “think pieces” that have drawn sweeping and deeply considered conclusions about the political drift of the country, at its core President Obama’s re-election is easy to understand. He essentially promised millions of middle and working class voters that if he were to be re-elected, they would receive benefits paid for by […]
The situation in the Middle East is quickly escalating. Israel continues to be targeted by terrorists, with nearly 300 rockets fired into Israel from Gaza in the past few days. The latest casualties: 3 Israeli citizens killed when one of the rockets slammed into their apartment building. A young child was also critically wounded. Now, […]
Owning: 5WPR, a leading US PR Agency which I started alone less than 10 years ago it has been constant hard work.: Nothing comes easy — and having President Obama it seems even harder to succeed, as this administration seems to embrace a class-warfare philosophy. For many like myself who need some motivation some inspirational quotes […]
Mitt Romney, who was a moderate governor of a blue state, with a moderate staff, running a campaign that seemed to be geared around avoiding social issues and being as non-offensive as possible, lost to Barack Obama. Didn’t we see this same movie in 2008, except with John McCain in the leading role? Well, here’s […]
Who says crime doesn’t pay? It certainly does if: you’re an illegal immigrant who wants to go to college in Massachusetts. Gov. Deval Patrick wants to allow some illegal immigrants to pay in-state tuition rates to attend state colleges and universities.A senior administration official told The Associated Press that Patrick will send a letter to […]
Despite that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has yet to resign and Barack Obama has yet to nominate Susan Rice to take her place, “progressives” have already diminished that debate and brought it to a new low. Rep. James Clyburn, D-SC claimed that Republican concerns about Rice being “incompetent” could be racially motivated.: In an […]
Barack Obama stopped in Burma, which he insisted as a “diplomatic courtesy” on calling Myanmar (perhaps pronouncing Pakistan Pahhhkeeeestaan no longer makes him cool enough for the UN), where he managed to repeatedly mispronounce the name of Aung San Suu Kyi, the Nobel winner who led the fight for a free, democratic Burma.: If that […]
Is this the latest salvo in the left’s war to implement a hyper-regulatory state? : Do Democrats see the United Kingdom as a model for their version of the surveillance society? : What on earth could Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-VT) be thinking coming up with legislation like this? : According to Declan McCullagh of C|Net, Sen. Leahy thinks […]
A new law that was originally meant to strengthen the privacy of your email was recently re-written to allow government more access to your private emails and other digital files. When H.R. 2471 went to the Senate, Democrat Senator Pat Leahy quickly rewrote the whole thing to allow federal policing agencies to have the power […]
CNN was gobsmacked over a county in Texas that saw an extremely low voter turnout for Barack Obama in the late elections. On the other hand the several counties in Ohio and Pennsylvania that had zero votes for Mitt Romney didn’t bother the cable Network at all. On Friday, November 16, CNN aired an “expose” […]
On May 23, 2012, Gallup released a poll that showed that people who identify themselves as ‘pro-choice’ was at a record low of 41%. Additionally, Americans who described themselves as pro-life, at the time, constituted 50% of the population. That nine point margin in America’s ongoing culture war has flipped. Pro-choice Americans are now 54% […]
