House Republican Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy made history on Thursday by endorsing Rep. Liz Cheney’s primary opponent to represent Wyoming, attorney Harriet Hageman. “After spending time with Harriet, it is readily apparent she will always listen and prioritize the needs of her local communities and is focused on tackling our nation’s biggest problems,” McCarthy told The Federalist. “I look forward to serving with Harriet for years to come.” The endorsement from the party’s top lawmaker in the lower chamber comes after a long string of Cheney attacks on her colleagues and even her own constituents, resulting in numerous censures and...

For many years now, when I’ve looked at my digital clock, I’ve seen one time more than any other–9:11. Now there are a lot of possibilities on the clock. There are twelve hours, and there are sixty minutes. I’m no math guy, but isn’t that 1 in 720? The odds of seeing 9:11 more often than any other time are pretty high, I’d say...

Uploaded on Dec 13, 2011 Country music recording artist Dwayne O'Brien performed his song "We Remember" (available on the CD "Song Pilot" at www.flightsongrecords.mybigcommerce.com) at the annual convention of the International Council of Air Shows last December in Las Vegas, Nevada. And he produced this video to be projected on the screens behind him while he sang. We hope that you'll share this link widely with friends and family who appreciate America's aviation legacy and all that our country's airborne warriors have done to defend our country. Many thanks to Dwayne O'Brien for both performing his wonderful song and producing...

This is a very powerful ad video released by family members of the 9-11 terrorist attack victims. The ad obviously is against the Ground Zero Mosque. Progressive liberal Democrats such as Nancy Pelosi want to investigate anyone who opposes the Ground Zero Mosque, but not where the actual mosque funding is coming from. those who are against it. The board members of Keep America Safe, Liz Cheney, Bill Kristol and Debra Burlingame announce the release of “We Remember,” an ad featuring first responders and family members of the victims of the terrorist attacks of 9/11 who are speaking out in...

Yesterday we accompanied Mom and Dad to a September 11th memorial ceremony at Ground Zero in New York City. Mom and Dad met with Senator Obama and they accompanied New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg to the temporary memorial that exists in the middle of the construction site where the towers once stood. It was a day of somber reflection and remembrance.

There is a disturbing phenomenon creeping into the public debate about all things 9/11. Increasingly, Sept. 11 is compared to hurricanes, bridge collapses and other mechanical disasters or criminal acts that result in loss of life, with "body count" being the primary factor that keeps it in the top spot of "worst in the nation's history." Misremembering is as dangerous as forgetting. If we must know one thing, it is that the Sept. 11 attacks were neither a natural disaster, nor the unfortunate result of human error. 9/11 wasn't the catastrophic equivalent of a 3,000-car pileup.

Late on the night of July 18, 1969, a car went off a bridge on Martha’s Vineyard. With a young senator from Massachusetts, Edward Kennedy, at the wheel, the Oldsmobile sank into the water beneath the Dike Bridge. In a sequence of events that instantly became famous, Senator Kennedy escaped from the submerged vehicle and swam to shore. By 2:30 a.m. he had made his way back to his hotel in Edgartown, where he was sighted in the lobby. He made 17 phone calls to family members and associates. But not until 10 hours after the accident did he call...

The proud warriors of Baker Company wanted to do something to pay tribute To our fallen comrades.

When Americans wend their ways to the polls this November, they must not think about the trivial things — a credit card payment or the time spent waiting in line at airport security. Instead, Gen. Tommy Franks urged voters to remember Sept. 11, 2001, when they cast their ballots. That was the day when the United States "lost more than 3,000 people in the wink of an eye," Franks said Saturday night. The four-star general spoke to a crowd of hundreds as part of the Naples/Fort Myers Town Hall speaker series at the Registry Resort and Club. His speech, "The...
