Shari’a Is an Existential Threat to the West

Newt Gringrich’s speech to the American Enterprise Institute this week is exceptional in content, and because so few politicians are making this argument: The West is in a struggle not of its choosing. It is under attack, direct and indirectly, through stealth jihad. Newt gets it. We share his ideas. They must be shared with

You Know the West Is Dying When…

Place this news item in the category of “You Know the West Is Dying When…” The Daily Telegraph reports that there is now a “Burka Barbie.”  No doubt it will sell well in the Netherlands, the UK, and other Western countries with large Muslim populations.

Happy International Free Press Day: Support Free Speech and the Freedom of the Press

Happy International Free Press Day! Today marks the 4th anniversary of the publication of the Danish cartoons of Mohammed. It is a poignant occasion for those who love liberty, free speech and a free press (even if it often fails us). The Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE) has an interview with Flemming Rose,

Maureen Dowd Will Rue the Day

I do not read Maureen Dowd because there is no there there.  But recently I found myself compelled.  She proclaims the white man’s last stand in a column last week. No doubt, this smug opinion is welcome by Left and touted in the salons of Manhattan.  There is no recognition or acknowledgement of what it

A Tale of Two Shootings

The shooting of a security guard at the Holocaust Memorial on June 10 was a vile and disgusting act. Its perpetrator, if he survives, deserves to be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. Old Media coverage of the shooting has been extensive. The gunman was the Left’s favorite villain: a white supremacist.  It

Was it a way socialists (Reds) could celebrate the birth of their great leader under the guise of environmentalism (Green).  Earth Day as

Creeping Socialism Proves Santayana Right

Most people know George Santayana for his observation that those who forget the past are condemned to repeat it. In this case, the forgetting caused intentionally by the Left who want to separate Americans from their political principles in order to crush their liberties and enslave them to socialism. A Rasmussen poll from April 9,

How Shameless: The Continuing Story of Obama’s Illegal Alien Aunt

The backstory:  President Obama has an aunt (Zeituni Polly Onyango) who is living illegally in the United States.  Yesterday, she appeared before a judge in Massachusetts.  He postponed her hearing until February 2010.  The hearing was closed at the request of her lawyers in order to conceal it from the American people. It speaks volumes

Goodbye John Bull: Multiculturalism and Alliances

The bottom line is that Obama was rude to British Prime Minister Gordon Brown during Brown’s Washington trip this week.  The Daily Telegraph has the kicker here: The real views of many in Obama administration were laid bare by a State Department official involved in planning the Brown visit, who reacted with fury when questioned
