Benghazi: politics or crime?

King Obama?

In light of this past week’s Congressional hearings relating to the Benghazi coverup and the death of American citizens, allegations of political manipulation of information have become moot. It is clear now that the factual altering of information slithering out from the Obama administration was not the result of fear of being ousted from the Presidency, but fear of being remanded to the penitentiary.

Military religious cleansing: more proof

Will this military religious activity be against regulations?

Earlier, J. Andrew Reid asked whether the soul of our nation was in jeopardy. He really was talking about military religious cleansing – in the United States Armed Forces. The last twenty-four hours have seen fresh proof of precisely the kind of military religious cleansing Reid warned about.

Soul of a Nation

A cross, a bible, and an ancient undergound symbol. Suddenly Democrats and Republicans have stark differences on what these symbols mean.

I do not know how many of you have been following the Obama administration’s systematic removal of religion, primarily Christianity, from the military but it is something that you should be aware of and concerned about. It is one more means by which they intend to deconstruct our society’s foundations. Religious values are what make our soldiers who they are. If you think I am wrong on this, if you think that removing God from the military will make no difference to our great society, I offer the following evidence substantiated by history to change your mind.

Doolittle Raiders: real superheroes

Looking around the auditorium, legends fill the room. A Tuskegee Airman subtly takes his seat in the crowd, and Medal of Honor recipient George “Bud” Day arrives in his wheelchair. Hundreds have come to honor three men standing onstage – the Doolittle Raiders.

Terror: Writing on the Wall

Boston Marathon Bombing Updates

Boston aftermath - and set-up

The Boston Marathon bombing story, or at least those parts of it that might suggest who did it, has changed radically. As a result, the people now have less confidence in their government, not more. This is not the result any government would want. Furthermore, the government might not want to admit, even to itself, who did the deed.

Department of Defense and fallen heroes

In our topsy-turvy-Alice-in-Wonderland-type of world, things often just don’t make sense – especially things in government. The Department of Defense reached new heights of absurdity when it denied awarding medals to those killed and injured by Nidal Hasan in the Ft. Hood massacre. Of course the DOD has denied the Purple Heart to others in the past, but never in an effort to protect the “rights” of our enemies.

Saddam Hussein had WMD after all

Saddam Hussein after his capture.

Ten years ago, the Grand Coalition of the Willing invaded Iraq and took it over. Eventually US forces found Saddam Hussein in a “spider hole,” brought him to trial, convicted him, and executed him. But they did not find the “weapons of mass destruction,” or WMD, they were sure Saddam Hussein had.

Coup d’état or playing with toys?

The Constitution. Did Lois Lerner waive her rights under this document?

Fresh perspectives arrive every week on the new toys the Department of Homeland Security is buying. That includes 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition and 2,717 Iraq War surplus light tanks. Is the Department simply acting like a child in a candy store? Or is the administration planning a coup d’état against the people?

Rand Paul goes to Washington

Senator Rand Paul in 2011

Senator Rand Paul did something the Senate rarely sees: actually talked at length about a matter of fundamental principle. He ended his filibuster of the confirmation of John Brennan as Director of Central Intelligence at 12:40 a.m. Today. But its effects will linger.
