President Obama’s decision not to release the Osama bin Laden death photo is alarming. You had CIA Director Leon Panetta just yesterday saying that the photo would eventually be released. War is a dirty business, and in the Arab world especially, the rumor mill has always run rampant. Not releasing the photo will only heighten […]

All Americans are rejoicing this week upon the news that Osama bin Laden has been killed in a daring mission by a United States Special Forces team. It has been nearly ten years since the September 11th terrorist attacks claimed the lives of nearly 3,000 people on American soil, and justice has been served to […]
Great article by Jed Babbin on how President Obama is trying to skirt Citizens United v. FEC and politicize the federal contracting process: Congressional Dems responded with an effort to overturn the Citizens United decision legislatively with the so-far un-passed “DISCLOSE” Act, which would have restricted undisclosed donors who aren’t unions and other reliable sources […]
As the world was focused on a royal wedding this past weekend, in Vatican City the blessed Pope John Paul II was beatified in front of 1.5 million people from all over the world. The last step before sainthood, beatification is bestowed on the holiest of people and marks the day that he or she […]

This week President Obama’s campaign manager Jim Messina gave a sneak preview of their 2012 campaign strategy. Messina noted that because of Citizens United v. FEC, the 2012 election will be different than the 2008 election. Messina warned of the dangers of Republican aligned Super PACs dominating the election cycle. He didn’t mention that a […]
The Las Vegas Review Journal editorial board makes the case that President Obama pushing the failed DISCLOSE Act through Executive Order will have the effect of punishing his political enemies: In a partial dissent in Citizens United, Justice Clarence Thomas argued the First Amendment protects all speech, including anonymous speech. “I cannot endorse a view […]
The argument that President Obama is being treated unfairly or differently than previous presidents when it comes to the voluntary disclosure of non-public records is absurd. This false narrative is simply an attempt to distract from the indisputable fact that the President and his team handled this entire sorry episode like a pack of amateurs, […]
John Yoo and David Marston defend the right to free speech from government fiat: Having failed to undo Citizens United by legislation, Mr. Obama apparently believes that he can veto the Supreme Court by naked presidential fiat. But before the administration barrels through with this attempt to suppress corporate political activity, it would do well […]
Now that the birth certificate debacle is out of the way 2.5 years into his presidency, Mr. Obama should release his college records – including the 1983 thesis he wrote at Columbia entitled “Soviet Nuclear Disarmament.” I started asking for this document in 2008, but few in the mainstream media thought it was relevant. Maybe […]
