Obama Takes His Rage to World Stage

David Limbaugh,  Why is The New York Times lamenting the souring of the personal relationship between President Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu instead of assuming Obama will subordinate his personal feelings to America’s national interest? Well, probably because they know he won’t. He’s a man scorned — and he’s getting more and more […] Continue reading →

Hillary Will be President Of Nothing

Kurt Schlichter,  The only people who should be afraid of Hillary Clinton running in 2016 are her fellow Democrats, and the only thing they should fear more than her running and losing is her running and winning. Hillary is a Lovecraftian monster, the Cthulhu of American politics who sleeps dreaming of victory, but she will […] Continue reading →

Foundations of Conservatism

OUR PHILOSOPHY  In the rough days ahead, and you and I know there will be such days, I hope that you’ll be like the mother of the young lad in camp when the camp director told her that he was going to have to discipline her son. And she said, “Well, don’t be too hard […] Continue reading →

A Speech and a President, Unbounded by Reality

Jackie Gingrich Cushman,   Enthusiastic, entertaining, energized and eminent, President Obama’s demeanor and delivery at the State of the Union belied his political reality. Unbowed, unbroken and possibly unaffected by the recent midterm Republican wave, Obama displayed his great skill by delivering an emotional teleprompter-driven speech that was a throwback to his first election. Varying tempo, […] Continue reading →
