When world leaders convene next week at the United Nations, all the Socialist superstars and totalitarian dictators will be in attendance. Chavez, Castro, Gaddafi, Ahmadinejad will all be welcomed in with open arms. However, Roberto Michelleti, the president of Honduras, will not be allowed in. Why? Because he represents a democracy that legally and rightfully [...]

Obama is acting ‘stupidly’ when it comes to Honduras

Doug Bandow, at American Spectator, has a great examination of the current stance the U.S. is taking toward the interim government in Honduras. From siding with Hugo Chavez and Fidel Castro in backing Manuel Zelaya, the deposed Honduran president who was properly removed from office for trying to illegally change the constitution, to threatening not [...]

How badly will Obama be treated?

Jay Nordlinger, in a recent Impromptus column, made some predictions about how Obama will be treated during his time as President: They say that “hate” is rearing its head, and that President Obama and the Democrats are the victims of it. Let me make a couple of predictions: I predict that the chairman of the Republican [...]

No respect for the dead

Andrew Breitbart lets us know that empathizing for a family’s loss doesn’t mean you can forget the truth when it comes to the lives lived by Teddy Kennedy and Michael Jackson. Death does not bestow sainthood nor does it cause amnesia. It doesn’t rewrite history and it doesn’t atone for wrongs. It is simply the [...]

What are they scared of?

An Idaho school is suing in an effort to use the Bible as a textbook. They were barred from using the Bible because Idaho law limits the use of religious texts, which causes me to wonder if they only limit Christian texts or do they limit texts from other religions. Normally, these “separation of church [...]

Three times is a pattern

Get caught advising a prostitute how to get a house and cheat on taxes…maybe it’s just a couple of bad apples. Get caught twice…coincidence. Get caught a third time…now we know there’s a larger issue at work here. ACORN’s workers seem to be routinely engaging in criminal conduct. This organization receives millions of dollars from [...]

There’s something to be learned here

A New Hampshire court has decided, against the mother’s wishes, to force a 10 year old home-schooled girl to attend public school. The parents are divorced and the issue arose because the father wants the girl to go to public school and feels she will lack socialization skills if she is home-schooled. However, the mother [...]

But Chavez wouldn’t lie, would he?

News out today that Hugo Chavez and Venezuela are getting help from Russia to start a nuclear program, supposedly just to supply energy to their country. Chavez says, “We’re not going to build a nuclear bomb, so don’t even bother us about that.” I’m sorry, but when he denies he wants to build a nuclear [...]
