Obama: Follow FDR–In This Case Anyway
The decision will make the war harder on us. It will almost certainly cause more Americans to be killed.~ Justice Antonin Scalia, “The Guantanamo Bay Cases” (2008)
If not Guantanamo, where?
One of Obama’s first acts as president was to fulfill his campaign pledge to shut down Guantanamo Bay prison camp for foreign terrorists who fought against, [...]
Geithner Presided Over Wall Street Collapse
Dr. Jerome Corsi (who has been a guest on The Conservative Beacon) points out in his latest piece for WorldNetDaily that there was one more significant point of criticism that should have been levied against Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner: He presided over–as the head of the New Work region of the Federal Reserve–Wall Street’s collapse.
As [...]
Liberals Are Liberals First
Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it and polarize it.
~ Saul Alinsky, “Rules for Radicals,” No. 13
We have all heard about how crazy liberals are. Conservative intellectual and radio host Michael Savage even wrote a book about this phenomenon, his 2005 New York Times best-seller, “Liberalism is a Mental Disorder.” Likewise, in 2008, Dr. Lyle H. Rossiter Jr., M.D., [...]
Obama Tries to Walk Through Window
Well I guess he isn’t Jesus after all…
Georgia Congressman Phil Gingrey Tells Rush Limbaugh to Back Off
It would appear that Barack Hussein Obama’s ascendency to the throne presidency has encouraged the liberal Republicans to attempt to systematically remove the conservative voices in the GOP.
First they want to get rid of Sen. Bunning (R-KY), then they lambaste Sen. DeMint (R-SC) for not playing the Party seniority game, and now one GOP Congressman, [...]
First Sen. Jim Bunning, Now Some Republicans Apparently Want Sen. Jim DeMint Out Too
Just last week I posted on a story from Politico about some Republicans wanting to dissuade Kentucky Senator Jim Bunning from running for re-election in 2010. The article claimed that some Senate Republicans fear Sen. Bunning can’t win re-election. Let me reiterate what I wrote in that post. These Republicans want him out not because his [...]
Nancy Pelosi: Call Government Takeover of Banks Nationalization or “Whatever You Want to Call It”
Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi knows the complete nationalization of the banking industry will be a tough sell to most Americans. So what’s her suggestion to make the sell less difficult? Well, here’s the answer she gave to the question of whether or not she thought nationalizing the banking industry was a good idea:
Well, [...]
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton Appoints Another Clinton Retread as “Climate Change” Envoy
Oh boy, more Clinton administration retreads. I don’t know about you but I am in awe of all of this “change” President Obama has brought to Washington.
This latest example of “change” is particularly troubling. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has created a new envoy–special envoy for climate change. (Notice how it’s not the special [...]
Obama Administration’s Transparency: We’ll Tell You What We Want You to Know
President Obama’s Press Secretary refused to acknowledge a U.S. predator drone strike in Pakistan. Ordinarily I wouldn’t make this a big deal because I understand the need for silence on some military actions, but after Obama campaigned on transparency in all facets of government, and after bragging on Wednesday about his executive order on the [...]
President Obama to Republicans: “I won” and Don’t Listen to Rush Limbaugh
Remember when President Bush responded to reporter’s question on his Iraq strategy as “I’m the decider?” Do you also recall the media and liberal outrage that ensued? I do.
Here we have President Obama, who hasn’t even been in office a week, dismissing political opposition with the not-at-all-unsportsmanlike or condescending response of: “I won. I will [...]
