GOP Has 2 Years To Prove The Next President in 2016 Must Be A Republican
Christians and Jews had reason to cheer loudly at the outcome of the latest national voting sessions that took place November 04, 2014; now the work can begin to undo the damage and near destruction caused by Barack Obama's crusade to elevate the national status of Islam at the expense and standing of those two religions in America that I just named.

Terrorists Thrive on Deaths - Anybody's Except Fellow Islamists

It's early afternoon of Wednesday, October 22, 2014, in the neighborhoods of eastern Canada and the United States, mere hours from the late morning devastation of wanton murder, for what appears to have been just killing for the sake of killing in Ottawa, Canada, where a Canadian soldier and one of the guilty gunmen were the victims.

Why Do Most Democrats Oppose VOTER ID Laws? Cheating On Their Minds?

Why Do Most Democrats Oppose VOTER ID Laws?
In the past several years, elections, local, regional and national in particular have seen lawlessness at the voting polls in many areas of these once-squeaky-clean United States. And even when definite proof is available, such as the case in Ohio, where the number of votes for Democrats in the ballot tallies exceeded the total number of all eligible residents, Democrat, Republican, and all other voters registered in that area.

Obama condemns 'brutal murder' of British hostage Video emerges of ISIS beheading British hostage Alan Henning WASHINGTON - President Barack Obama on Friday strongly condemned the "brutal murder" of a British hostage by the Islamic State group. "Standing together with our U.K. friends and allies, we will work to bring the perpetrators of Alan's murder - as well as the murders of Jim Foley, Steven Sotloff and David Haines - to justice," Obama said.

Has Insanity Taken Over the Voters?

Has Insanity Taken Over the Voters?
There is literally no proof of ownership for any one person having first quoted the saying "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again but expecting different results," but because he was such a clever gent with words and many other worldly things, I'm inclined to give credit to Albert Einstein.

Once Again Our Islamist President Uses His Authority to Cut Military Pay

Once Again Our Islamist President Uses His Authority to Cut Military Pay
It's just not right for the President of the United States to be a lap dog for any foreign entity and even more so if that favored group is a terrorist inclined quasi religious gathering of foreigners who are anti-American at heart. This current occupant of our Oval Office fits that description totally.

Due To Rampant Fraud, Two Out of Three People Now Support the Third Person In The Obama U.S.

NOTE: If the threats and promises of our extroverted Muslim leader, one Barack H. Obama, regarding illegally bypassing Congress and the United States Constitution and using Executive Orders are allowed to be put into being, the exacerbated numbers of illegal aliens drawing on OUR government resources will slide further up much close to one on one. It could even be worse where we citizen taxpayers may even lose more ground and have to support more than one on one.

The Presence of the Attorney General in Ferguson Invites Racism

In an August 20, 2014 FoxNews.com article titled, "Holder Says He Understands Mistrust Of Police As Ferguson Protests Dwindle" and on that same date, "during his meeting at the FBI building in St. Louis, Holder told Ferguson community leaders that he has assigned the federal government's 'most experienced agents and prosecutors' to the investigation of a white police officer's fatal shooting of a black 18-year-old."

Why Do Black Leaders Have Preconceived Notions of Guilt When the Races Exchange Roles?

If at first you don't succeed, try - oops; not that one, but it's very close. The one I'm thinking of when I heard that the cavalry, in the form of two black leaders, not Black Panthers, although that group are certainly present at this roasting; but these warriors heard that a young black boy got shot by a white policeman during the riots in Ferguson, suburb of St. Louis, Missouri, and they're here to make sure some white cop gets not necessarily fair but equal treatment.

An Honest Judge Speaks About Obama and Our Government

Time after time our honesty-challenged news -- often called mainstream media -- highlights one judicial baron who is so in bed with the person for whom he hands down his decree or finding, always favorable to the recipient, that when a truly reputable justice speaks up it is as refreshing as a spring breeze.

Finally - Liberals Are Beginning to Protest Obama's Immigrant Decisions

Maybe Obama has overstepped his bounds of authority once too often. Judging by the size of a protest rally in, of all unexpected places, Boston, Massachusetts, which by one account, that of rally organizer Jeff Kuhner, host of WRKO's The Kuhner Report, put the number close to 10,000.

Democrats Led By Obama and Harry Reid Determined to Scuttle USA

It has been obvious for a long time, at least getting close to six years since the incredibly unfortunate date of January 20, 2009, when Barack Obama was illegally sworn in as our 44th president, though unchallenged proof of his eligibility has yet to be presented. Oh, yes, phony paperwork, badly handled and mismanaged, has been presented at times by the usurper himself, but it has always been exposed for the fraudulent state that it is in.

Forty-six Democrat Senators Want to Change our Laws Strictly for Politics

Forty-six Democrat Senators Want to Change our Laws for Strictly Politics
The impossible just got legs for a potential possibility; and not a good one at that. In a bare-faced political move, forty-six elected Democrats in our United States Senate; that's EIGHTY-SEVEN PERCENT of all Democrats, are willing to make a change to our most predominant, most revered and oldest established legal document, the United States Constitution, all for their desire for more political power in our government.

Now More Than Ever, Strict Term Limits Are Needed for America's Survival
