Pope Francis Blesses Pro-Life Mass in Spain

On Sunday, Pope Francis delivered a blessing to a huge crowd of Roman Catholics attending an open air mass and rally in Madrid. The event was organized to show support for a recent proposal, made by Spain’s conservative government, to restrict abortions.  The

Phony Fact-Checker PolitiFact: We Didn't See It, So Walker Lied

The fraudsters at PolitiFact have struck again, this time at Republican Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker. In a phony fact-check published at The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, the left-wing fact-check site rates an anecdote in Walker’s new book “Unintimidated”  as “false” because no

New York Times: ObamaCare's More Expensive than Obama Claims

Like the rest of the mainstream media, The New York Times is right on-the-ball with its three-years-late vetting of ObamaCare. Monday the Times discovered that all this happy talk from Obama, Democrats, and, well, The New York Times, about “affordable”
