Capitalist Excess? A Review of Michael Moore’s “Capitalism”
Love him or hate him, or his films, there’s no question about where Michael Moore stands ideologically: Left-wing, “progressive,” populist, socialist. In some ways Moore’s newest film, “Capitalism: A Love Story,” muddies the water. But in the end, all it really shows is that Michael Moore doesn’t actually know what capitalism is. Apparently, Moore thinks... »
Can Republicans Pander Their Way Into Leadership?
Is this the great Republican strategy to turn the country back from its current downfall? Do Republican “leaders” really believe that the outrage from middle America over the thuggish nationalization of industry, banking, and possibly the healthcare field by Obama and his minions can be channeled into a boost for the candidacy of a... »
Surprised by Disaster
In re Afghanistan, why, you might ask, is the world’s hugest, expensivest, most begadgeted military unable to defeat a few thousand angry tribesmen armed with AKs and RPGs? Easy: Character. The men running the war are mentally the wrong ones to do it. Think about this for a moment. Suppose that your boss at the lab... »
A DA’S Guide to Convicting a Man of Rape, Guilty or Not
Redmond Oregon is the type of place that people like to say that they are from. A sleepy town wrapped in the mountains of central Oregon with a population of around 15,000 souls. A town small enough not to have traffic congestion, but large enough not to be absent of good schools,... »
Liberalism Concocts “Bogeymen” While Ignoring Real Dangers
An epic battle is shaping up between the leftist federal government, and those peasants out in the American heartland who doggedly cling to the notion that the country belongs to them and their posterity. This contest promises to evolve into liberalism’s “Tet Offensive,” the outcome of which, they hope, will be a decisive victory... »
Danger: Food Supply Vulnerable to Terrorism
Imported food makes up a substantial and growing portion of the U.S. food supply and, considering the health and safety concerns of keeping American’s safe, Washington insiders seem oblivious to that part of protecting American citizens. To ensure imported food safety, federal agencies must focus their resources on high risk foods and coordinate efforts, according... »
“America’s Sheriff” Joe Arpaio vs. Obama Administration
Maricopa County (Arizona) Sheriff Joe Arpaio — hailed by many as America’s Sheriff — is under attack for cracking down on illegal aliens. The liberal-left politicians, activists and members of the news media are vilifying Sheriff Arpaio for his department’s immigration and crime sweeps in and around Phoenix. On Friday, government officials with the Homeland... »

“You never want a serious crisis to go to waste.” – Rahm Emanuel, White House Chief of Staff. On Monday, October 19, top talk show host Glenn Beck will expose President Barack Obama’s latest power grab: control of the Internet. The show (aired on Fox News Channel at 5:00 PM EST) is a must-see... »
Halloween Safety: Ten Tips to Protect Kids
Halloween is one of the most exciting times of the year for children, but sometimes the most hectic for parents. Nearly 94 percent of children between the ages of four and twelve participate in Halloween activities each year. The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) and the National Association of Chiefs of... »
Obama’s War Strategy Questioned by Terrorism Experts
On Thursday, President Barack Obama signed a law that will provide $7.5 billion in aid to Pakistan over the next five years. The funds are part of a comprehensive plan that recognizes the importance of confronting the root causes of extremism as well as extremists themselves, according to Obama. The new law will provide $1.5... »
2010: Not The Time For “Faux Conservatism”
In truth, conservatism must be solidly based in traditional Judeo-Christian morality if it is to be conservatism in any sense. So-called “fiscal conservatives” merely profess the ludicrous notion that they can confront liberalism’s resultant social rot at a far lower cost than that expended by the Democrats. »
Terrorists Attack and Kill Pakistani Cops
Terrorists attacked three security agency buildings in Pakistan today, including the Federal Investigation Agency headquarters and two police training centers in Lahore. In addition, a suicide car bomber struck in the northwestern city of Kohat, and a bombing in Quetta in the southwest of the country left more dead. There were five terrorist attacks in... »
Obama Administration Investigates Hero Cop
Secretary Janet Napolitano’s Department of Homeland Security reportedly stripped Maricopa County, Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio — also known as “America’s Sheriff” by many admirers who hail him as a hero — of his federal authority to arrest suspected illegal immigrants based solely on their immigration status. The federal authorities under President Barack Obama wish... »
Democrats Are Bad For Our Health
Alan Grayson (D-FL) has become the class clown of Congress, beating out some very heavy competition. How can anyone take a political party seriously that doesn’t do as much for itself? Grayson ruffled feathers and spread glee among the partisan flock a couple of weeks ago when he made this claim: “If you get sick,... »
The Nobel Committee Dishonors Itself
Even CNN was shocked. Even the Obama White House was shocked. “Only nine months into his presidency,” reported a baffled CNN news anchor this morning. “President Obama has won the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize. The announcement made jaws drop even at the White House.” When I first heard the news, I thought it was a joke. The... »
Europe Prefers A Presidency That Fails America
Surely, America could only succeed if Obama succeeds. This is the heart and soul of liberalism. But, like the rest of the liberal philosophy, it is fundamentally wrong. From the welfare state to the public school system to the various “family service” agencies that consistently peddle their poisonous anti-family agenda, it is liberalism itself... »
Conspiracy: Global Tax Next on Obama Agenda?
While the national battle over government-controlled health care is in its final stages, participation in a United Nations-run Global Poverty Tax is expected to come up for a vote in the US Congress any time soon, according to conservatives who fear it is a giant step towards handing over US sovereignty to the United... »
The Dollar at the Precipice
If you’ve seen the movie “Thelma and Louise,” you’ll never forget the ending: In the last scene, the two main characters head down a dirt road in their top-down convertible. The road dead-ends at a very high cliff. The last picture of the movie shows the car in a dramatic free-fall off the cliff. That ending... »
On Spreading a Meme…
Periodically, there will be a sudden flaring. A burning out if you will. A prominent MRA will throw up his (or, in some cases, her) hands and say “Screw it, this is going nowhere…what a bunch of whining do nothings!”. And with a flourish, that MRA disappears from the scene. Sometimes even for good. What that... »
A Teachable Moment on Communist China
When I first heard it, I didn’t believe it. Alas, it’s true. Last week, New York City’s Empire State Building was aglow in red and yellow. Why? To commemorate the 60th anniversary of the victorious revolution of the People’s Republic of China—i.e., the establishment of Mao’s Red China. (Click here for photo.) I’m not kidding. This... »
