D-day, the Six of June, is a date that the world forever remembers, as the beginning of the end of Nazi tyranny, and the beginning of a return to democracy. D-day, the Fourth of June, is a date that will also go down in history as the day we turned our backs on the only true democracy in the Middle East. The “D” here signifies the day that an American President “Delegitimized” the sovereign nation of Israel, the only nation in the world that we can count on as being our true ally. No region on Earth has been more...

The two films described below are available for watching in their entirety. Film #1. Under Fire: Personal Stories from the Scorched Summer...

If you ever want to make a quick buck, ask a liberal to define, "Conspiracy." About 98 times out of 100, they will define it incorrectly. For a group of people who use the term almost daily in reference to Obama's critics, you would think that they know what "conspiracy" means. As an "alternate question," ask them "How many people are needed to create a conspiracy?" If they give you any answer besides, "Two or more," they also lose . When you listen to how liberals talk about a political or government "conspiracy," what you hear are two, distinct definitions...

<p>A new proposal in Congress is threatening fines and jail time for what it calls "cyberbullying" – communications that include e-mails and text messages that "cause substantial emotional distress."</p> <p>The vague generalities are included in H.R. 1966 by California Democrat Linda Sanchez and about a dozen co-sponsors.</p>

Joel Simon of the Committee to Protect Journalists rightly says that bloggers are in the vanguard of the information revolution we're going through thanks to the Internet. The impact on things like political freedom and social tolerance is hard to measure, but it's safe to say that whether through websites, blogs, emails, Facebook or Twitter, more people are transmitting information and venting views than ever before. Authoritarian regimes have been unable to stop the march of media freedom, but they continue to try. And bloggers are in the crosshairs--sometimes literally. CPJ has just come out with a report called "The...

Obama's Campaign paid $688,000 THIS YEAR to attorney who threatened sanctions in eligibility lawsuit In a report filed Wednesday, April 15, Obama for America, the group that collected over $850 million in campaign contributions for Obama, spent nearly $9.5 million in the first three months of this year, including included $688,000 in legal fees to the firm of Robert J Bauer.

Soetoro, No. 08-2254. citing the disgusting...

If you are as sick and tired of the slobbering, liberal leftist media as I am, and at times wished you could do something about it, here's an idea: tell it to the Federal Communications Commission! But, tell it with the twist: in addition to listing your grievances against specific media outlets, be sure to mention their commercial sponsors by name. Then, contact the commercial sponsors and tell them that you and thousands of others like you, not only will boycott their products, but have lodged complaints against them with the FCC. THAT will get their attention. There's a specific...

Q: What do these four things have in common? Aliens from Outer Space Abominable Snowman Boogeyman in the Closet Barack Obama's Certification of Live Birth A: All of them are imaginary!   People say that Obama released a genuine copy of his actual Certification of Live Birth. He never did, and they are mistaken, misinformed, or misleading others if they do. People say that Hawaii confirmed this copy to be Obama's actual Certification of Live Birth. Hawaii never confirmed a request for, nor the printing of, this Certification of Live Birth. People say that Factcheck verified this image as...

By Scott FreeHAWAII [Roiders] - Federal and Hawaiian authorities have joined forces today in the search for little COLBEE who has been missing almost 10 months. COLBEE was last seen in Chicago in the company of her legal guardians. The hundreds of thousands lending their support to help find little COLBEE has been nothing short of phenomenal. Last week, one of the local dairies decided to put a picture of COLBEE on their milk cartons. However, since there were no usable photographs of young COLBEE, the BAU in Quantico sent one of their sketch artists to produce a picture of...

On Thursday’s The O’Reilly Factor, FNC’s Megyn Kelly filled in viewers on the current voter fraud controversy in Ohio involving ACORN, and Democratic Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner’s refusal to comply with a federal court ruling in spite of clear evidence of fraudulent voter registrations.

Time flies! From Reuters (02/18/09): The grandmother of California's newborn octuplets faces the threat of foreclosure on the house she has shared with her daughter and six of her grandchildren, property records revealed on Wednesday. According to a mortgage default notice filed last week with the Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder's Office, Angela Suleman is more than $23,000 behind in payments on her house in the Los Angeles suburb of Whittier, an agency spokesman said. The default notice was first made public when a copy of the document, giving Suleman three months to settle her debt in order to avoid foreclosure,...

It is not official yet, but you can bet on this happening. Thomas Perez, the current Labor Secretary for the State of Maryland, and former board director for Casa de Maryland, one of the most influential immigrant advocacy organizations in the country, will take over (literally) as the Head of the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). According to Wikipedia, CASA de Maryland is to Maryland politics what MoveOn.org is to national politics. CASA is affiliated with the National Council of La Raza, which is the largest Hispanic "civil rights and advocacy organization" in the United State. CASA has...

Lost among the language of Obama's "Economic Stimulus Package," aka "Welfare for Lobbyists," is a little-discussed provision to demand that every American submit to a government program for electronic medical records without a choice to opt out. The fact that this kicks HIPPA to the curb, not to mention all other right-to-privacy laws, including those under the FOIA, is bad enough. Having your medical records sold by GOOGLE to its advertisers makes this provision unconscionable. But, WAIT! There's more!" Towards the end of the article is this nugget:The Citizens' Council on Health Care has worked to publicize the issue in...

Before the election, and all throughout his campaign, Barack Obama claimed that "secrecy dominated government actions in the Bush administration," and that Bush "ignored public disclosure rules by invoking the state secrets privilege more than any other previous administration to get cases thrown out of civil court." Mr. Obama, no one, but you, knows more, and has done more, to abuse the legal system as a Presidential candidate and President-elect, to get cases regarding your Constitutional eligibility thrown out of court on technicalities, and not on their merits. Where is the openness you promised? Your Campaign website touted how you...

What is an Executive Order? Executive Orders (EOs) are legally binding orders given by the President, acting as the head of the Executive Branch, to Federal Administrative Agencies. Executive Orders are generally used to direct federal agencies and officials in their execution of congressionally established laws or policies. However, in many instances they have been used to guide agencies in directions contrary to congressional intent. Not all EOs are created equal...[a] subset of Executive Orders are those concerned with national security or defense issues. These have generally been known as National Security Directives. Under the Clinton Administration, they have been...

A ceasefire between Israel and Hamas seems imminent, although how long it will last is anyone's guess. One thing is fairly certain: even as the guns fall silent the charges and counter-charges of violations of international law will continue. Already the airwaves are full of talk that Israel's "disproportionate" response is a flagrant violation of international law. The Palestinian Authority has claimed, in addition, that Israel's actions constitute "aggression against the Palestinian people," and a "crime against humanity. "(See CNN's Jim Clancy's interview with the Palestinian Authority's Ambassador to the United Nations, Riyan Mansour, January 3, 2009). In this climate,...

Which part of "illegal" does the New York Times not understand? In an editorial that appeared on Christmas Day, "Getting Immigration Right," the Times made the following ridiculous statements: It’s way too early to tell whether the United States under President-elect Barack Obama will restore realism, sanity and lawfulness to its immigration system... If you uphold workers’ rights, even for those here illegally, you uphold them for all working Americans. If you ignore and undercut the rights of illegal immigrants, you encourage the exploitation that erodes working conditions and job security everywhere. This is why it is so important to...

If Barack Hussein Obama is allowed to take the Oath of Office, he will have done so by skirting around the requirements of Section 1, Article II, of the US Constitution. If the POTUS can ignore Section 1, Article II, then every citizen who is required to pay income tax under Section 8, Article I, and the 16th Amendment, should follow the lead of the President and skirt around those problematic provisions, as well. Obama's Presidency will not only be illegitimate ib Constitutional terms, but also illegitimate according to the Declaration of Independence, which proclaimed that "governments are instituted among...

America Online is conducting a new poll asking readers whether they believe there is any merit to the controversy surrounding Barack Obama's citizenship – and most respondents say "yes." With nearly 77,000 national votes in the unscientific survery, some might say the poll chart looks somewhat similar to this year's electoral map, except in orange and yellow. A full 48 percent of nationwide respondents believe people should be concerned about Obama's citizenship, 45 percent say the controversy has no merit and 7 percent of voters remain undecided. America Online is conducting a new poll asking readers whether they believe there...
