In time of need, Obama turns to Scripture
(Peter Lemiska) - Barack Obama's recent comments at the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington have caused a stir among conservatives in general, and particularly among Christian conservatives. The reason is clear. After first taking the opportunity to emphasize his Christian faith, he cleverly employed Jesus Christ as an ally in his political campaign for economic equality...

A beating and racial slurs -- but no hate-crime charges
(Selwyn Duke) - Ah, the left-wing capacity for rationalization knows no bounds. While we're told that even substantive criticism of Barack Obama is driven by the hatefulness the left has dubbed "racism," a racial attack by three black teenagers on two white men in Philadelphia this past Monday is, somehow, not...

Taking hostages: Tehran in 1979 - Cairo in 2012
(Alan Caruba) - As someone who vividly recalls the Iranian "students" who took our diplomats hostage in 1979 and the 444 days it took to get them back, the repeat of this by the Muslim Brotherhood in Cairo, putting 19 pro-democracy, non-government organization (NGO) Americans on trial on trumped up charges has an ugly repetitive feel to it...

Americans are better than who Obama thinks we are
(Lloyd Marcus) - Along with their ever-present accusation that anyone who criticizes or disagrees with America's first black president is a racist, class envy is the centerpiece of Obama's re-election campaign. It is extremely disheartening that the president of the United States believes he can win the votes of a majority of Americans by exploiting the sin of covetousness and hatred for the rich...

Courageously Catholic in the public square
(Judie Brown) - In these times of attack on our faith and beliefs, Catholics must have strong leaders leaders who will stand up for what the Church teaches. Yet this is not something that is uniformly seen throughout the hierarchy of the Church. In today's commentary, we read about some of the atrocities occurring right now in our country.

The Unbearable Wrongness of the Supreme Court’s Roe v. Wade
39 years ago, the Supreme Court delivered a radical, legally untenable, immoral decision. It has forfeited its entitlement to have its decisions respected, and followed, by the other branches of government, by the states, and by the people. Thousands of people at the March for Life in Washington, D.C., were commemorating the thirty-ninth anniversary of [...]

Planned Parenthood would appear to have won this latest skirmish in the abortion wars. The Susan G. Komen for the Cure foundation having first decided to withdraw future grants to the world's largest abortion provider, quickly retreated under a barrage of accusations, complaints and threats.

No fewer than 26 Democratic senators signed a letter to Komen saying, in part that, "It wou ...

Romney Should be Proud for 01/27/2012

It's as predictable as vultures at a carcass. When a wealthy Republican is running for office, the press will make his wealth a handicap. Recall that when George H. W. Bush was running in 1988, he was derided as a "preppy." George W. Bush was the undeserving scion of the ruling class. We were told never mind that he had succeeded in business on his own. Though John McCain had been a f ...
