Jihad is Forever
Islam/Jihad item by Alan Caruba

Americans greeted news of Osama bin Laden’s death with a celebration of the payback it represents for the deaths of nearly 3,000 Americans on September 11, 2001. As former Vice President Dick Cheney said on hearing the news, “Today, the message our forces have sent is clear—if you attack the United States, we will find you and bring you to justice.”

America’s Hands Out Society
Welfare State item by Thomas D. Segel

Living in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas is usually a joyful experience.  According to national studies it is one of the most pollution free areas in the United States.  There is year-round abundant sunshine.  The Gulf of Mexico splashes up on our shoreline.  We have a society that is enriched by the cultures of two nations and a hard working, loyal and dedicated workforce.  It is one of the best labor markets a company could find anywhere.  Added to all of these positive attributes is an abundance of kind, caring and friendly people.

‘Skyrocketing Gas Prices: A Crisis Too Good to Waste? ’
GreeenIsm item by John W. Lillpop

Most Americans see the devastating rise in gasoline prices as an ominous threat to their personal standard of living, prosperity, and basic ability to survive. Unfortunately, President Barack Obama and most liberal Democrats do not share that concern.

Pageantry, History, and Change
MSM/Media Bias item by Alan Caruba

Last week ended in pageantry that altered history in ways the whole world could take notice, vicariously participate, and absorb into the collective conscience. On Friday the heir to the British throne married and a former commoner became the future queen of England. The world rejoiced.

Time to Pull The Cloak of Invisibility Off Of Black Conservatives
Tea Party item by Lloyd Marcus

CNN traveled with us on the Tea Party Express, to approximately 40 rallies nationwide. I, a black conservative, opened each rally singing my “American Tea Party Anthem”. And yet, not I nor any of the other blacks on our team were seen in the CNN documentary; thus, causing viewers to conclude the Tea Party Movement is a “white thing”.

America’s Fate Under Chinese Hegemony:  a Review of Eamonn Fingleton’s ‘Jaws of the Dragon’
Trade Policy item by Guest: Ian Fletcher

The news has recently hit the press that China’s economy, measured on the purchasing-power basis that adjusts for price differences between nations, may surpass the U.S. in only another five years or so. Surprisingly, China has still shown no signs of morphing into the cuddly liberal and democratic nation, devoted to American ways from Coca-Cola to democracy, whose eventual appearance has been assumed by American policy for thirty years now.

The Special Candidate
Politics item by John LeBoutillier

There is genuine despair on the Right. More and more Republicans and conservatives see President Obama’s re-election as a disaster for the future of the United States – yet feel powerless to stop it unless we find a special candidate to unite the shattered Right/GOP/Tea Party Movement, win over independents and then defeat Mr. Obama.

Carbon and carbon dioxide: Clearing up the confusion
Climate Change item by Paul Driessen

Let’s restore common sense to our public policy debates on energy and climate…
We are constantly bombarded with information – much of it inaccurate, misleading, even deliberately so.

The Unshakable Appeal Of A Trump Candidacy
RINO's item by Christopher G. Adamo

If establishment Republicans have their way, the history of 1995 and 1996 will repeat itself, which portends that despite their enormous mid-term gains, Barack Obama will be reelected in 2012. While this is an appalling possibility to the mainstream of the country, those at the innermost circles of Republican hierarchy nevertheless seem determined to deny the American people a real alternative to the acceleration of government bloat and encroaching socialism from the political left. Thus they give credibility to the abhorrent and extra-constitutional actions of the Democrats and Obama since his inauguration.

Lawrence O’Donnel is the Biblically Ignorant One!
Taxes item by Doug Edelman

Since almost nobody watches Lawrence O’Donnell on MSNBC, it’s a pretty safe bet that you either haven’t seen his recent scriptural dissertation – or if you did, it was because someone shared it with you on Facebook!

‘Was W. Eligible to Serve as President?’
Satire item by John W. Lillpop

Listening to the likes of Bob Scheiffer, Chris Matthews, David Letterman, Whoppi Goldberg and other left-wing moon bats rant and rave about Donald Trump and his racism,one cannot help but wonder what the media would have been saying back in 2000 if President-elect George W. Bush’ birth certificate popped up as an issue.

New Sheriff in Town Ann Barnhardt:  Fearless against Islam and the Obama Syndicate
Interview item by Sher Zieve

A couple of weeks ago, a friend sent me a video of a lady who not only speaks up against the oppression of Islam and the Obama syndicate but, is not afraid to have her singularly articulate views placed before the entire world.  Therefore, I contacted her.  As you will see below, Ann is fearless.

Cuba and Geritol Communism
Communism item by Paul Ibbetson

Cuba, America’s little communist island neighbor to the south is doing a little bit of government restructuring. Fidel Castro has just finished the last stage of what has been an incremental step-down from power. In 2006, Fidel Castro handed over temporary power to his brother Raúl while the Communist dictator underwent a series of intestinal surgeries. In 2008, Raúl Castro was appointed as president of Cuba but the process was only recently finalized when Cuban President Raúl Castro selected José Ramón Machado as the second in command.

Importing Disaster: Demographic Changes Mean Democrat Future
Immigration/Border item by Selwyn Duke

At a gathering some years ago, I had a political conversation with a man who had recently arrived here from Denmark.  He was advocating his home country’s socialist system, which, of course, led to profound disagreement.  He was good natured and cordial, however, so the debate ended on a polite note.  Yet it also ended on an ironic one: When asked if he wanted to return home, his answer was no.

‘What’s a Widget Worth?’
Inflation item by Dr. Robert Owens

What’s a widget worth?  Who determines the price of widgets?  Is there an answer to the escalating cost of widgets?
