The rare and cringe-worthy appearance of a 70’s inspired feminist is visible these days only along the sidelines of a Pro-Life March; screeching anti-Life diatribes through a bullhorn. Feminists have rigorously dedicated themselves to the crusade of abortion on demand. Consequentially, feminists have become an irrelevant factor on a range of issues in the national debate, all because of their death grip on this solitary platform. for more click here

President Obama recently offered a nice little sermonette on “shortcuts.”

Asked about his decision to release the “torture memos” and ban waterboarding, Obama said: “I was struck by an article that I was reading the other day talking about the fact that the British during World War II, when London was being bombed to smithereens, had 200 or so detainees. And Churchill said, ‘We don’t torture,’ when … all of the British people were being subjected to unimaginable risk and threat. … Churchill understood, you start taking shortcuts, over time, that corrodes what’s best in a people. It corrodes the character of a country.” for more click here

The April 23 Associated Press story “Rights groups cry Gaza whitewash” was a shoddy piece of reporting, never even mentioning the so-called “human rights activists” who criticized the conclusions reached by meticulous investigators from the Israeli military.

Just a few days ago, not many Americans knew about Daniel Hannan, a Conservative member of the European Parliament. However, after a three minute speech on March 24 in which he confronted British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, Hannan has become an international sensation. His YouTube video “The devalued Prime Minister of a devalued government” is already an internet success. It has become the most viewed political speech faster than any other in internet history, with almost two million views in its first week, and it has been the number one viewed video for several straight days. As a principled politician, Hannan has been widely praised by conservatives in the United States and was recently featured on Fox News, the Drudge Report and various important conservative radio talk shows, including the Rush Limbaugh Show. for more click here
