Print Charles C. Johnson Read Full Bio Young Obama, Wall Street Outsourcing Specialist While Barack Obama is keen to attack Mitt Romney for “outsourcing,” he ignores that his first job, at Business International Corporation (BIC), actually advised American firms on how best to outsource. Not only did Obama work for BIC, he actively seems to have chosen it. In fact, he worked for one of “the first research firms designed to provide information services for multinational firms,” wrote David Remnick in his sympathetic biography, "The Bridge" (p. 118). 19 Jul 2012 Meet John Hutchings: Lining Union Pockets with Your Money It’s no surprise that Hutchings seems to be quite pleased with the results of “Green Jobs/Green New York.” After all, he has a long record of pushing government spending toward the unions for which he works. In fact, he does so from the Broome County legislature, where he is chairman of the public works and transportation committee, as well as the public safety and emergency services committee. 18 Jul 2012 Why It Will Be Condi Rice I have followed the career of Mitt Romney since 1994. I have read every book about and by him, and I have studied every move he made in the land of my birth. This is why I am convinced Romney will choose Condi Rice for the vice presidency: Massachusetts history, inside baseball, tactics, and temperament. 13 Jul 2012 Obama Not So Post-Racial When Promoting Dreams in 1994: Stereotyped Blacks, Disliked His 'White Blood' Was Obama really post-racial, or was the media pulling a fast one on us? Let’s go straight to the source--o Barack Obama, circa 1995. In late August 1995, Obama sat for an interview with Monice Mitchell of the Hyde Park Herald for the promotion of his then-new book, Dreams From My Father. In the interview, far from his post-racial image, Obama stereotyped blacks and whites alike. 13 Jul 2012 Speech That Launched Obama's Career Took Place at Rally for Racial Preferences at Occidental One of the most fascinating things about Barack Obama's first autobiography, Dreams From My Father, is the material Obama deliberately left out in an attempt to establish his authenticity. Take, for instance, Obama's story about the formative political event in his life: his first political speech, given before an audience of students at Occidental College on February 18, 1981. Obama writes that the protest, which, he had planned along with his friends, was to expose Occidental College’s investments with apartheid South Africa. Yet student newspaper records from Occidental reveal that the protest wasn’t just about South Africa: it was also about increasing racial preferences for black and Latino students and faculty at Occidental--a history that has been utterly missing from Obama's political record. 25 Jun 2012 Like Obama, New Party Favored High Minimum Wage, High Corporate Tax, and Campaign Finance Reform Stanley Kurtz has revealed that Barack Obama was once a member of the New Party, a social democratic third party. When examining what the New Party once believed on wages, taxes, and campaign finance reform, it seems as if Barack Obama is carrying out their platform as president of the United States. 11 Jun 2012 The Vetting: Obama Decried 'Spread of Militarism,' Lauded Anti-Selective Service Group at Columbia Obama wrote that Students Against Militarism (SAM) “was formed in response to the passage of the registration laws in 1980.” Obama noted that the activists had “fostered awareness and practical action necessary to counter the growing threat of war.” That “awareness” and “practical action” went beyond mere protest, or encouraging students to break the law. SAM also wanted to break the military itself by sapping it of support—as Obama must have known from contemporaneous articles in the Columbia Spectator and from campus politics. 26 May 2012 Obama's 'Favorite Professor': Poor and Minorities Receive 'Little Benefit' from America That professor was Roger Boesche. Obama took two classes from Boesche—one on Nietzsche, the other on American history—and they apparently left quite an impression. But Obama’s “wonderful professor” had some rather odious views about the United States military, which contemporaneous accounts in the student newspaper of Occidental confirm. 26 May 2012 The Vetting: It's Obama, Not Ayers; Famous Photo Taken by Anti-Military Friend The photos above have been making the rounds on Facebook, in the blogosphere, and through email, purporting to be a snapshot of a young Barack Obama with Weather Underground terrorist Bill Ayers. Breitbart.com has authenticated that these are, in fact, photos of Barack Obama, but not of Bill Ayers, who is seventeen years older than Obama. The photo dates from Obama's time at Occidental College. 25 May 2012 Exclusive: The Vetting - Did Obama Have Lower SAT Scores Than George W. Bush? President Barack Obama is hailed by his supporters and the mainstream media as one of the most brilliant men ever to hold the office. However, his refusal to release his academic records, his admitted deficiencies as a student, and his frequent factual errors--even in his chosen field of constitutional law--have cast doubt upon his supposed genius. Now, Breitbart News has established that Obama's grades and Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) scores may have been even lower than those of his supposedly less capable predecessor, George W. Bush. 22 May 2012 Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Next
