With the Republican debates hopefully about over, a troubling trend has developed. What began as sharks smelling political blood in the water as President Obama’s approval ratings began to nose dive is turning into a case of cutting of one’s nose to spite the face. As the President continues to change the face of America through executive order, Republicans can’t agree to put some things aside for the common good. Media darling Mitt Romney is about as conservative as John Huntsman. In other words, not at all. There is no issue I can find on

The latest buzz in the media world has centered on the sexual scandal at Penn State. News of former defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky’s molestation of young boys has caused a ruckus. Though I’m not in favor of the actions Sandusky committed and believe them to be sinful, let me explore something with you. The allegations of Sandusky’s actions are horrific, if true. But I also find it ironic when the American rule of morality has come to be relativistic and our moral ruler is measured…

The world has watched intently over the past few months as predominantly Muslim countries from Egypt to Tunisia to Libya have overthrown long-time dictators. In the wake of these revolutions, much has been made about the dawn of democracy across the Arabic world. But is this really what is happening in the Middle East? One needs only look as far as to who is moving in to fill those voids of power to find the answer. The Muslim Brotherhood, a radical Islamic movement, responded to the overthrow of Muammar Gadhafi by calling on Libyans to

“Hope and Change” worked well for Barack Obama in 2008 but likely will not in 2012. With the nation’s confidence in itself at an all time low, there seems to be little hope. And about all that has changed is a worsening mood in this country due to a stillborn recovery and persistent unemployment. Because of this, the President has coined a new slogan, “We can’t wait!” The strategy is to place the blame for our economic woes directly on a Republican Congress that has held the majority for less than a year. To make

As unemployment continues to be problematic and the nation’s GDP falls, Washington has proven once again to be no friend of American enterprise. Two successful American manufacturers continue to be targets, not of international interests, but of the Justice Department of the United States. Henry Juszkiewicz, the CEO of Gibson Guitars, Inc., says Gibson is under attack from the Obama Administration Justice Department with accusations that the company broke the law. But the twist here is that the Justice Department isn’t defending American laws. Instead it is seeking to interpret and enforce the laws of

With unemployment still resting above 9 percent, some in Washington are pointing a finger back at the government as the main problem. House Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Fred Upton (R-Mich.) is publicly calling on President Obama to reign in the Environmental Protection Agency after a new report showed job creation continues to lag. “Millions of American jobs are in jeopardy because of the costly rules proposed or under development by the EPA, and that’s just one agency,” said Upton. “If this administration is serious about job creation and not just paying lip service, it should

Vice President Joe Biden is well-known for his off-the-cuff remarks and outright gaffes, so many assumed it was more of the same when he made a recent comment about not “second-guessing” China’s one-child policy. A little research however reveals that Biden was not speaking out of school about this subject. Steven Mosher, president of the Population Research Institute (PRI), had numerous discussions with then-Senator Biden on the topic of population control when they were working to establish Free Radio Asia in the early 1990s. The discussions between Mosher and Biden occurred when Mosher was serving

A nexus between terrorism and weapons of mass destruction would have the potential to unleash deadly attacks against innocent civilian populations that could dwarf the horrors of 9/11. Does such a nexus already exist? And are there terrorist groups out there right now planning to strike with devastating fury against those they see as their enemy? Nobody knows the answers to these questions for sure. While many talking heads are constantly sounding the alarm about this threat, it must be remembered that there is a whole cottage industry of terrorism “experts” out there who are

The U.S. electoral season is in full swing, even though the elections themselves aren’t happening until a November voting day that seems so far away. Still, that’s not stopping the politicians from running their mouths … or your family from running theirs. With the election still months off, what can you do when your home has turned into a campaign trail? It’s not about imposing your opinion on everyone, or about shutting down free speech in your home. Instead, keeping the peace during campaign season….

First came “Operation Fast and Furious,” in which the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the Justice Department orchestrated the transport of firearms across our borders into the waiting hands of drug cartels in Mexico. Now, we are learning that U.S. federal agents probably allowed the Sinaloa drug cartel to traffic tons of cocaine into the United States in exchange for information about rival cartels. The allegations surfaced in documents filed in a U.S. federal court as a part of the defense filings for Vicente Zambada-Niebla. A top lieutenant of drug kingpin
