Barack Obama recently accused America of domestic terrorism against illegal aliens when he said:
“…communities are terrorized by ICE immigration raids, when nursing mothers are torn from their babies, when children come home from school to find their parents missing,…”
TOPIX:
With all due respect, senator, babies torn from their nursing mothers will not starve, and children who come home to find their criminal parents missing will survive.
Furthermore, ICE raids are a vital tool in the war against illegal aliens. We need a 1000 percent increase in ICE raids, regardless of the impact on nursing babies!

For political theatre, there is no denying that the speech Sen. Barack Obama delivered in Berlin drew a huge, adoring crowd and was filled with the kind of talk intended to impress, not just Berliners, not just Europe, not just America, but the entire world that a new leader has appeared on the scene to work miracles.
Chuck Todd, the NBC News political director summed it up best when he pointed out that the same speech could have been delivered by Sen. John McCain because its content was ideologically the same in many ways. The critical difference is that McCain is imbued with the values of a family that has fought to protect American values, American freedoms for generations.

Egad!
In their worse nightmares, John McCain and the Republican Party could not have imagined the doomsday scenario being played out at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
The current resident, a lame duck hawk, was given a six-month “Notice to Vacate” on Sunday, which means that he will not be around to muck up the works next January 20.

Just what is it with Op-Ed editor David Shipley at the New York Times?
How can an objective editor at a major metropolitan newspaper reject an Op-Ed submitted by the presumptive presidential nominee of the Republican Party? Especially since the NYT recently published a piece by McCain’s Democrat opponent?

Illegal immigration is a “hot button” issue all across America as elected officials seek to reverse the encroachment of America by millions of foreigners who come here in willful violation of our borders and laws.
More restrictive and punitive statutes are being codified into law at the state and local levels to discourage illegal migration in the first place, and to encourage illegals already here to get the hell out.

What I know about NATO, the North American Treaty Organization, you could put in a bug’s ear. Well, that’s not quite true. I do know the treaty was signed April 4, 1949. It was the result of Cold War fears that the Soviet Union represented a military threat to Europe.
A commentary by E. Wayne Merry that appeared in The Journal of International Security Affairs, “An Obsolete Alliance”, caught my eye. The author is a former State Department and Pentagon official who is now a Senior Associate of the American Foreign Policy Council.
Merry posed a question that had buzzed around in the back of my brain for a long time. Why is the United States still a member of NATO, an alliance that initially was intended to exist for twenty years, but whose life and mission has been expanding now for nearly sixty years? Since the Soviet Union collapsed in the 1990s and the Cold War is over, why does the U.S. or Europe need NATO?

No, not the movie just released stateside and already a box office mega-success!
We are talking about the real Dark Knight who answers to the name Barack Obama.
Obama has expanded his campaign act to the Middle East where he popped in on the troops in Afghanistan, and immediately took on the role of a huge favorite to many of the troops.

So, Speaker Nancy Pelosi believes that President Bush is a “total failure” does she?
With all due respect to the Gentle Lady from California, this president graduated from Yale with an MBA, served as Governor of the state of Texas, and was elected and re-elected to the most powerful office on the globe.
Most significantly, President Bush has prevented a repeat of the deadly terrorist attacks that cost nearly 3,000 Americans their lives on 9/11/01.
In the 2004 general election, 62,040,610 Americans voted to renew Mr. Bush’s contract for a second term.
Meanwhile, Nancy Pelosi earned a seat in congress by being elected in a San Francisco district that is among the most liberal and anti-American in all of America.
Ms. Pelosi rose to the Speakership in 2006 on the strength of votes cast by 148,435 San Francisco leftists.
Under the leadership of Ms. Pelosi and others, the Democrat-controlled congress presently has an approval rating of nine percent (9%), which is considerably less than George W. Bush’s dismal approval number.
In light of these facts, one must ask, “Just who is the ‘total failure’ Madam Speaker?”

Hence it is necessary to a prince, if he wants to maintain himself, to learn to be able not to be good.~ Machiavelli
Prologue: Machiavelli in the hood
Today’s column continues my review of Dr. Benjamin Wiker’s commendable opus, “10 Books that Screwed up the World and 5 Others that didn’t Help” (Regnery, 2008). My critique will be on the very prominent Italian philosopher Niccolò Machiavelli
(1469-1527) and review his famous treatise on political statecraft, “The Prince” (1513).
One of my earliest memories of Machiavelli was almost 20 years ago, in 1989. I was a law clerk for Che Ali Karega, a famous criminal defense attorney in Michigan. I have never met a man like Che either before or since. He appeared otherworldly to me.
