Ann Barnhardt: Fearless, Peerless Warrior Against the Cultural Jihad Once again a mere flicker–in this case burning a copy of the Koran in Florida–has ignited the inferno of deeply seated infidel-hatred that pervades the contemporary Muslim world, precipitating violence, death,
There is no escaping the pro-union tone included as part of some of the advertising material President Obama’s labor attorneys have placed on Google. That should be a no go for anyone serving on the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB),
The Coffee Party is at it again. Desperately seeking a raison d’etre other than NOT to be the Tea Party, the Brew Crew has just issued a Congressional chain-letter which it hopes its tens of followers will co-sign. Pulling no

We’ve already seen the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in illegal and extraordinary fashion commandeer control of the Internet – so as to then impose the ridiculous notion that is Network Neutrality. Which remains a solution running around looking for a
A Lebanese-American professor described the deteriorating situation of Christians in the Middle East, now complicated by revolution and Islamism, in a speech Thursday for the Westminster Institute. For a community that has always walked a fine line between politics and

There is a new divide by which we define ourselves: Those who suck in the acrid smell of jihad in the Middle East, pronounce their hallucinations “Arab Spring,” crave more … and those who don’t. Among those of us who
So according to some handy-dandy researchers, too much consumer choice is bad for society. Their explanation: thinking about so many alternatives makes you less likely to support policies that help people. According to a Science Daily scribe, who seemed somewhat
When it comes to the Make-Believe Media, some news is more equal than others. And it’s not just a numbers racket. So when do the numbers justify news coverage? Six hundred people at a New York AIDS rally make the

In a sea of perpetual turmoil that is the Middle East, the US holds few real cards. Our options are few and our choices even fewer. That is why, much to our criticism, we’ve had friendly relations with dictators and
As the war against for-profit schools drags on, several organizations continue to cry wolf in the hopes of landing the final blow to the resilient colleges. One of the biggest players in recent battles has been the New American Foundation.
“Texas Budget Could Cost 600,000 Jobs.” Wow! Red Alert! Red Alert! If you pull up CNN you will be treated to this sky-is-falling bullet point headline of doom regarding the $83.8 billion budget that will go before the Lone Star
Over the past month, Google made waves with the announcement that it has tweaked its search algorithms to penalize ‘content farms.’ These are “low quality sites whose main goal is to attract search traffic by piling up (mostly) useless content.”
Boy, them Googlers Act Fast. Climate ‘skeptic’ website ICECAP posted this item noting Google’s latest gambit in global warming activism, which includes bringing on board as an advisor an academic whose name and address pop up with some frequency in
As many of you know, I recently filed a lawsuit against the New York Times. Therefore, I will not comment on their having falsely stated as fact that I was involved in planning the very attempted far-left firebomb attack on

Google “demise of journalism” or some variation of the idea and those clever little spiders the Google gurus generate will find nearly a million websites for you to check out. You’ll read about J-schools closing, newspapers struggling and media departments
The wisdom of intervening in Libya’s internal civil war is for others to judge, but what is obvious is that it is but another incident in a long, long list in which America has intervened on behalf of its European
On Saturday, there were two major themes in the news. One: The U.S. took the lead in the military attack on Libya, launching 110 Tomahawk cruise missiles against Gaddafi’s missile and communications sites. Two: U.S. officials stumbled over themselves to
The following quotes are taken from my email exchanges with Jim Shankman of Madison, Wisconsin, the individual who has admitted to writing a vicious screed directed at blogger Ann Althouse and her husband, Meade. All bold type used for emphasis
This past week was particularly ridiculous in terms of MSM ignoring major stories involving leftist violence and voter fraud. To highlight what the media is taking great pains to ignore (because it involves progressives), we’re debuting a new feature here
Three questions for you. Do you think of Republicans and the Tea Party as dangerous, violent extremists? Do you think the Wisconsin protests over GOP Governor Scott Walker’s move to strip public sector employees of collective bargaining were peaceful? Do

Unmanned aerial assets are a real treat in the war on terror. They are cost efficient (roughly at $4 million respectively), stealthy and accurate at virtually no human costs on our end. They can survey from 6,000 to 20,000 feet
An emergency meeting of the Arab League on Saturday passed a unanimous resolution demanding a no-fly zone over Libya, to protect the civilians in Libya, at the time of a “very bloody situation.” The Telegraph quotes the official statement as
Just like in Watergate, where the initial players tried to write-off the scandal as a “third-rate break-in,” the bigger story lies in the power wielded by executives trying desperately to cover their tracks and pretend they didn’t do something extraordinarily

Fellow contributer here, Jim Hanson, beat me to the punch on Russia’s military buildup. While true they are making efforts to modernize their military, mostly comprised of old Soviet era equipment, they still have a lot of making up to
Apparently, President Obama likes to ignore his advisors. Either that or some agencies in Washington missed the President’s speech when he said he wanted job creation to be his number one priority. You see, one would think that, if the
Hamas has been quite busy lately. Last week, after 2 years of relative calm, a long range Grad rocket exploded in Beer Sheva. The rocket landed in a courtyard near a villa at about 8.45 p.m., causing extensive damage to
