On August 6, 2011, I wrote, “Just when you thought the US getting downgraded by the S&P was bad… The Taliban shot down a helicopter killing 31 (the deadliest attack on Americans in the entire Afghan war)… 25 of which were Navy Seals… 20 of which were from SEAL Team Six, the same group that [...]

President Obama is actually good at a few things. No, he’s not good at running the country. Nor is he good at managing a crisis. In fact, he’s downright terrible at being a Commander in Chief. But he is good at reading teleprompters. He is good at misinterpreting the U.S. Constitution. But where he really [...]

Between 2002 and 2008, the Left in America maintained a consistent assault against President George W. Bush which included a number of pejoratives, most notably calling him a “NeoCon.” Even my Democrat friends would look me straight in the eye and say, “Bush… that, that NeoCon!” And I would reply, “Wait! What exactly is a [...]

Obama’s reelection team sent the announcement to their supporters this morning via email, along with a snazzy campaign launch video titled, “It Begins With Us.” The video features real people from political battleground states North Carolina, Nevada and Colorado as well as a few others from Michigan and New York providing interviews about the upcoming [...]

What happens when America appoints a community organizer as Commander in Chief? Thanks to the election of Barack Obama, we now know. First, he breaks his campaign promise to bring Iraq troops home within a year. Next, he breaks his campaign promise to close Gitmo within a year. Then he isn’t even a month in [...]

HBO just can’t help themselves. Less than two weeks after the pay television giant announced Julianne Moore, 50, will play a 43 year old Sarah Palin during the 2008 Presidential election, the network announced its intentions to make another anti-GOP movie based on the 2008 Barton Gellman book, Angler: The Cheney Vice Presidency as well [...]

It is official, Obama, the Nobel Peace Prize winning President of an unprovoked country, has launched an attack on, Libya, a Mideast country. So much for that moral high ground Obama and the Democrats claimed with the U.S. invasion of Iraq. So much for Obama’s “extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples” [...]

You’ve probably never heard of Frank Buckles, but today may be a good day to learn his name. Buckles was born in Missouri in 1901. At the young age of 16, he represented himself as a legal adult in order to volunteer in the Army, just as World War I was raging on. Buckles [...]
