Washington Times: Obama, The Leaker In Chief

When politics trump national security.    President Obama takes umbrage at the idea that a spate of leaks of highly classified national-security information is somehow purposefully intended to bolster his leadership credentials. His resistance to an independent investigation will only make things worse for him. The Obama White House is leaking   ... MORE

Phyllis Schlafly: Obama Lunges Toward Global Government

His second term could take us over the cliff.   One of the biggest issues in the November election is whether we will continue or stop President Obama's move toward restricting U.S. sovereignty and rushing down the road to global governance. One would think that the obvious failure of the European Union and disdain for the euro would put  ... MORE

Michael Flood McNulty: Obama Wants UN Gun Control

A backdoor attempt to impose gun right restrictions.   Kansas Senator Jerry Moran introduced legislation to prohibit the Obama administration from negotiating away our gun rights as part of the UN Arms Trade Treaty (ATT). The ATT is a backdoor attempt to impose massive restrictions on U.S. gun rights.  While negotiations on the treaty are ...

Lucy Steigerwald: Almost Free To Discuss Ending Drug War

Latin American leaders talk drug legalization. Will Obama join in? On Friday in Cartagena, Colombia, leaders from North, South, and Central America and the Caribbean will gather for the Summit of the Americas. There’s no official agenda, nor is there much word as to what definitely will be discussed beyond freer trade and "civil ... MORE

Isabel Otero: The Ozzie Guillen Political Correct-Mess

The thought police ticket the Marlins' manager.   Lately those in the public eye seem to have reverted back to Cold-War memes where someone, most prominently Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, can call Russia our "No. 1 geopolitical foe." I am not sure if this is nostalgia or a sincere attempt to find something to argue about. This week, it  ... MORE

Eliza Krigman: U.N. Seeks Power For Internet Regulation

What will be America's response to Russia and China? Faced with the prospect of United Nations regulation of the Internet, the United States has yet to appoint a leader for an upcoming battle with other countries over Web management. Less than a year from a historic treaty negotiation that will redefine international agreements on Internet management, the   ...

Jacob Laksin: Obama's World Bank Pick Hates Capitalism

The president shows his true colors.   Imagine if President Obama appointed radical Noam Chomsky, who has denounced capitalism as a “murderously destructive catastrophe,” to head up a committee on economic growth. That’s less of a stretch than it may seem, considering Obama’s nominee to head the World Bank, current Dartmouth College  ... MORE

Steve Chapman: Toward The Conquest Of World Poverty

Even communist eventually have to make peace with reality. Progress can often be defined as the stuff that happens while humanity is preoccupied with everything that is going wrong. On the surface, the first decade of the 21st century looks like an ugly parade of terrorism, war and economic convulsion. But in one important sense it stands as   ... MORE

Infowars: FEMA Training Camp Activity In Missouri

"Incredible activity" at civilian internment facility. An anonymous source, going by the name of Sam, has sent photos to Infowars.com of a FEMA training camp located at Ford Leonard, Missouri. Sam will talk with Alex Jones on his nationally syndicated radio show today. Sam was contracted to work at the camp. He describes it as a “civilian inmate training ... MORE

Neil Snyder: A World Tax? Keep Your Eyes On The Internet

A compelling reason not to elect Obama.    The United Nations is finally moving toward the creation of a world tax. "No one should live below a certain income level," stated Milos Koterec, President of the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations. "Everyone should be able to access at least basic health services, primary education, housing, water       ... MORE

John Stossel: Policing The World


Can a debtor nation afford to police the world? With an election approaching and at least some Americans upset about irresponsible spending, the president has finally expressed a political interest in cutting something. He says the Pentagon will spend "only" $525 billion next year. That's slightly less than the current $531 billion. A cut is good, but this will barely ... MORE

Wendy McElroy: To Serve And Protect -- The State

Protect yourself, because the police are paid not to care.  Last month, an international rights tribunal slapped America across the face through a showcase ruling that has no legal force. The Inter-American Commission on Human Rights found that Jessica Lenahan could sue the Castle Rock, Colorado, police department for its refusal in 1999 to enforce a restraining order ... MORE

Gene Healy: "Mission Accomplished" in Libya?

The Obama Doctrine is nothing to celebrate. Mission accomplished! As Libyan rebels took Tripoli last week, liberals practically draped that banner across the nation's op-ed pages. Now was the time for all good men to come together and praise a famous victory. In Newsweek, liberal columnist Michael Tomasky pronounced Libya "completely the right thing to do," ... MORE

Steve Chapman: The Obsolete Allaince

 Has NATO outlived its usefulness? Defense Secretary Robert Gates went to Europe recently to announce that the North Atlantic Treaty Organization may have a "dismal future" and that before long, American leaders "may not consider the return on America's investment in NATO worth the cost." Why does he make that sound like a bad thing? "Watch out! We may have to stop ... MORE

Clinton: Obama Will Ignore Congress On Libya War

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton told a classified congressional hearing that the Obama regime would ignore Congress if it tried to rein in the unconstitutional war in Libya, but that the administration would send press releases to lawmakers, according to news reports. When Rep. Brad Sherman (D-Calif.) asked Clinton during the briefing what the regime’s response would be to Congress exercising its constitutional  ... MORE

Ben Stein: We Have An Illegal War

What will tomorrow bring from this third-rate crowd?
Okay, kids. Now, let's see where we are today in the wacky, mad, wonderful world of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton playing at war and diplomacy. When we last looked in, Hill and Barack had just junked the U.S. Constitution and gone to war at the order -- not of Congress but of the United Nations Security Council... But look.  ....  MORE

How politicians often disguise nothing as something to assuage public opinion.
