What would you say if I told you the locks on your doors were a waste of time and money? After all, if you're like most people, no one has ever unlawfully entered your home. In fact, there's little evidence that anyone has ever tried. So why do you waste time installing and utilizing those silly deadbolts? If that argument sounds ludicrous, which it should, realize it is precisely the same argument being utilized by opponents of photo identification and other sensible election integrity measures being pursued by Republican controlled legislatures throughout the union. The Washington Post reported on the...

The Obama administration is considering it. The idea is to have the U.S. Citizen and Immigration Services (USCIS) just start handing out green cards to illegals. USCIS, a part of the Obama administration, outlines the ideas in a draft memo that includes the possibility of issuing green cards to tens of thousands who entered the country illegally. "In the absence of Comprehensive Immigration Reform, CIS can extend benefits and/or protections to many individuals and groups by issuing new guidance and regulations," the memo advises.

Like a detective on a trail, I'm all over this Ellie Light thing (still), the next tidbit I will point you to is the actual meaning of the name and the potential allusion to the Obama campaign symbol and a few other theories like the Cass Sunstein/Samantha Power possibility. As everyone knows by now, the 'transparency' of the Obama administration is an illusion, I think that this story is another (potential) determining factor of just that as well. I also read a report that Ellie Light has been featured in over 60 newspapers as of now. Readers have opined that...

Fearing a potentially devastating Democratic loss, the highly controversial Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) group and its affiliated organizations are gearing up to tip the scales and re-elect embattled incumbent in the hard-fought New Jersey gubernatorial race, sources tell Newsmax. "Acorn is heavily involved in Gov. Jon Corzine's get-out-the-vote operation, but is maintaining a low profile at the insistence of the Corzine campaign," Matthew Vadum, senior editor of the conservative Capitol Research Center think tank, tells Newsmax. "If Corzine manages to win reelection, he doesn't want the victory tainted by his close association with Acorn." Wall Street...

The U.S. Department of Justice seal bears a Latin phrase: "Qui Pro Domina Justitia Sequitur." The motto refers to the attorney general, "who prosecutes on behalf of Lady Justice." But under President Barack Obama's politically corrupt DOJ, Lady Justice is getting the shaft. To wit: Let's examine the uproar over Attorney General Eric Holder's decision to protect hate-mongering thugs who harassed and bullied precinct workers and voters on Election Day in Philadelphia. Oh, wait. There's been no uproar. Let me tell you why. Two weeks ago, in a highly unusual move, Holder dismissed default judgments his department had won against...

How is the current economic crisis affecting your vote? More likely to vote for McCain More likely to vote for Obama More likely to vote for a third party candidate No change

It was just after the 2000 GOP Michigan Primary, and George W. Bush was peeved. Apparently, a band of saboteur Democrats had switched flags and voted for Senator John McCain in the GOP nominating contest. As a result, then Governor Bush was forced into a harder and more protracted battle for the 2000 Presidential nomination. Governor Bush did something the Ohio Democrats of 2008 seem utterly incapable. He accepted that political parties indulge in all sorts skullduggery and that “politics ain’t beanbag.” He moved on in a way that no liberal in MoveOn.org is capable of, and continued his march...

FORT LAUDERDALE · Broward County prosecutors should investigate about 30 registered voters who attempted to cast ballots twice in last week's election, county officials said Friday. Members of the Broward County canvassing board, meeting to officially certify the county's election results late Friday afternoon, said they were concerned about voters who cast ballots by touch-screen voting machine at early-voting sites in the days before Nov. 2, then tried to cast paper ballots at the precincts on Election Day. Broward Elections Supervisor Brenda Snipes said she had spoken with representatives of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement about such voters. Earlier,...
