Lessons of the GSA
Scandal vs. the Secret Service Scandal
The
national media is dominated at this moment by two gigantic scandals involving
the U.S. government. One involves the GSA - General Services Administration -
and their excessive spending on a conference in Las Vegas. The other involves
the U.S. Secret Service and their excessive behavior on a Presidential trip to
Columbia. Both scandals present valuable lessons about the way our government
operates. Let’s start with the GSA. This scandal is far more important and far
more indicative of how government operates. It illustrates that government
employees are addicted to spending taxpayer money. The GSA spending scandal
shows precisely why our country is bankrupt and over $100 trillion in debt and
unfunded liabilities. Why? Because government employees are spending OPM -
other people’s money. [more...]
Radical Islam &
Allegiance to the USA
By
Al Fadi
Can
a Muslim seek citizenship from a non-Islamic country? Can a Muslim soldier
maintain his/her allegiance to his non-Islamic country? Are Muslim citizens of
a non-Islamic country required to separate themselves and dissimilate? These
questions and more represent the reality of what the U.S. administration, current
and future, might face. This dilemma, although it existed for a long time, was
once again made more explicit through a religious decree issued by a Muslim
jurist: Dr. Salah al-Sawy, of the Assembly of Muslim Jurists of America (AMJA),
which can be read here. In this fatwa, the Islamic jurist,
Dr. al-Sawy, prohibits his fellow Muslims to freely seek the citizenship of a
non-Islamic country (i.e. the USA), calling it a form of apostasy (a crime
under Sharia Law punishable by death). His claim is based on the grounds that
such action by a Muslim is a show of disloyalty to Islamic laws and willingness
to obey non-Islamic laws, which is a clear contradiction of what Islam stands
for. [more...]
The Romneyconomy:
What Mitt Needs to Do to Win
By
Doug
Johnson
Romney
needs a clear plan to win against Obama. What he’s done in the primaries won’t
work for him in the general election. The Republican establishment feels that
Romney is the best man to beat President Obama in the upcoming election. Yet Romney’s
campaign has not showed us that they have a winning strategy against Obama. To
date, all they’ve really done is compete with other Republicans. They’ve done
so not by articulating a clear plan
to fix what ails America. Rather, they’ve grossly outspent their competitors
and used that money to beat them down with attack ads. If Mitt and his campaign
think they can win by doing the same to Obama, then they’re in for a rude
awakening. They need a clear plan to win. I recommend... [more...]
Talk and More Talk as
the Iranian Nuclear Bomb Ticks
By
Sarah
N. Stern, Founder and
President of the Endowment
for Middle East Truth (EMET)
There
is a very dangerous school of thought throughout the West that was succinctly
expressed to me a few years back by a State Department Official. “Talking,” he
said with a great deal of confidence, “is always
better than not talking. After all, what
harm can words do?” Plenty. After the' P5 plus 1 talks' (The United States, The Russian Federation,
China, Great Britain, France, plus Germany), adjourned in Istanbul last Sunday,
European Union Chief Negotiator, Catherine Ashton said, “The day-long talks at
an Istanbul conference center did not yield an agreement on specific curbs to
Iran’s nuclear program, but U.S. and European officials described the negotiations
as ‘constructive and useful’ and said a second round had been set for May 23 in
the Iraqi capital, Baghdad.” [more...]
