January 29, 2014, 04:00 pm Pelosi: Dems will insist on citizenship By Mike Lillis House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Wednesday amplified the Democrats' insistence that an immigration reform package include a pathway to citizenship for the nation's illegal immigrants. Some GOP leaders have embraced the notion of providing legal status to those residents, but Pelosi said such a strategy doesn't go far enough for House Democrats. "In our caucus, there has to be a path to citizenship," she told reporters in the Capitol. "To talk about legalization is to say that America is not the country we think...

I know this list has been printed before but it's important to know who the fight is against. Both Obama and Pelosi are or have been members of the Democratic Socialists of America. It is an outrage that the media doesn't cover a single fact about this organization or its goals! Hey Katie Couric!....How about some reporting on this?

The Democratic dominoes clearly are beginning to fall when Jon Stewart, the host of "The Daily Show," says, "I haven't seen results like this ever in [the Middle East]." As anyone who watches the Comedy Central "news" show knows, Mr. Stewart isn't a serious political pundit, but he is unabashedly liberal both on and off air. And since he commands a fairly large audience of mostly younger adults, he is perhaps as much an indicator of the liberal mindset as the New York Times. His comments came during a Tuesday night interview with former Clinton aide Nancy Soderberg, who was...

On New Year’s Eve 2002, who would have expected that a little-known Vermont governor named Howard Dean would become the Democratic presidential front-runner on the strength of 200,000 individual donors? Probably no one, not even Dean. The questions for the New Year are: Will Dean keep a steady hand on his candidacy, and will his vaunted grass-roots organization turn out the voters in the primaries? Likewise, who’d have thought that President Bush and Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist could take the Medicare issue off the table for 2004 by enacting a new prescription drug benefit? But is the issue truly...

Just a thought...If Weapons of Mass Destruction from Saddam Hussein WERE moved to Syria (where terrorist organizations can freely get at them) in the days and weeks before the United States Military moved into position to enter Iraq, who takes the blame for allowing it to happen?Bush, for not acting (against all of the domestic & world opposition) sooner?The United Nations, for unwittingly stalling operations in the name of pacifist solutions?Domestic (ie; Hollyweird) Activists, for raising hell over the operation in an effort to prevent action because they're such "important" people who deserve to have the final say-so over ELECTED...

The plain facts are shocking. Nine thousand families are currently homeless in New York City, the highest number on record. Indeed, homelessness is rising across the country as jobs vanish, incomes shrink and families are forced onto the streets. Meanwhile, George W. Bush is spending the astounding sum of $4 billion a month in taxpayers’ money to keep 146,000 U.S. troops in Iraq—troops who are being murdered on a daily basis, with over 70 dead American soldiers since the war ended on May 1 and no foreseeable improvement. This confusion of priorities is an embarrassment to this country and Mr....
