Glorious Leader Gap: President Barack Obama - Not So Bright for a Harvard Law Grad

by John Drew

As a student of charismatic leadership, my antenna lit up when I saw all the chatter during the 2008 Presidential campaign regarding Barack Obama’s brilliance and genius. Since I’ve gotten to know some real geniuses, I think I’m in a good position to access his intellectual capacity. Based on my experience, I can report that Barack Obama is a non-genius. How do I know? Well, for one reason, one of my brothers is a genius. He’s tested out in elementary school with ...

Heartwarming Generally Isn't the Word to Describe Jamie Glazov's Articles

by David Swindle

They have more in common than just the family resemblance. My always-supportive friend and mentor Dr. Jamie Glazov has a must-read article today at FrontPage. Usually when I introduce one of Jamie's articles it's time to brace yourself for a horrific expose of Islamofascism or misogyny. Today's a bit different, though. Jamie has finally written the kind of piece I've been bugging him to do for months: the story of his family. Here's the beginning of it: One day, when I was nine years old, my father and I were ...

Lefties Squeal Like Stuck Pigs Over Liz Cheney Ad

by John R. Guardiano

The Left is in a swinish feeding frenzy over Liz Cheney's "Who are the Al-Qaeda Seven?" Internet ad. But far from discrediting Cheney and her ad, the Left instead has exposed itself. When the Left start squealing like stuck pigs, then conservatives know they've hit the bull's-eye. And so it is with Liz Cheney's magnificent and laudable Internet ad, "Who are the Al-Qaeda Seven?" [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIxg7LmlEQg] Who, indeed? And why don't the American people have a right to know their identities? These attorneys, after all, are on the federal dole. They now work ...

And the Oscar Goes To...Dalal Mughrabi, PLO Terrorist

by Jeanette Pryor

It is almost midnight, but I can’t sleep. I am haunted by their faces, by the thought that, thirty-two years ago, at this very hour, both Gail and Dalal were still alive. Gail was packing her cameras, checking that she had enough film and the right lenses. She would get up early so the beach would be empty. Too many people, and she wouldn’t get close enough to the birds. Dalal was also going to the beach, but she wasn’t going to take pictures of life in Israel, and ...

Frank Gaffney Needs Our Support In an Important Task: Getting the Right Back on Track in the Battle with Islamofascism

by David Swindle

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, we have a problem. Let's review the evidence: Exhibit A: Conservative icon Sarah Palin endorses Rand Paul for one of Kentucky's Senate seats. The son of notorious non-interventionist Congressman Ron Paul is on record as describing his foreign policy views as "very, very similar" to his father's. Exhibit B: Ron Paul wins the Straw poll at CPAC. (More a symbolic victory than a substantive one given that he netted the votes of less than 10% of CPAC attendees but never the less the ...

Another Look At FOX News' Hatchet Job On Geert Wilders

by John L. Work

Following the gang hatchet job on Dutch Parliamentarian Geert Wilders by two separate FOX News crews a few nights ago, FOX pulled down all the video footage from the internet – like it never happened. Well, it did happen. Jim Angle, Glenn Beck, Bill Kristol, Charles Krauthammer and A.B Stoddard all did the dirty work during two different shows. But, thanks to Gates of Vienna and Diana West, we can at least watch Beck going at Wilders one more time. First, let’s look at Beck’s six minute interview with ...

Eric Massa -- When My Enemy's Enemy Is Not My Friend

by Mark Meed

Mine is now the deciding vote on the health care bill and this administration and this House leadership have said, quote-unquote, they will stop at nothing to pass this health care bill, and now they've gotten rid of me and it will pass. You connect the dots. -- Eric Massa And what a set of dots they are. Eric Massa's recent "I-was-pushed" resignation, the immediate "he-was-pushed" patter-chorus that followed, and the emerging revelation that he has probably been pushing a lot more than that, provide multiple examples of why it's ...
