State of Denial

By Wayne Allyn Root

Obama’s speech last night wasn’t a State of the Union; it was a "State of Denial" - denial mixed with delusion. It was a state of addiction to spending. It was a modern day fairytale - in the middle of a Great Depression. It was a "Let's sing 'Kum-bay-yah' and hold hands, while we solve the world’s problems with money we don’t have” speech. It was insanity squared. Here’s how Obama solves problems: in the middle of a Great Depression, he wants to raise the minimum wage by almost $2 per hour. Delusional. Like a Saturday Night Live skit.

Celebrities Demand Action from Obama on Global Warming

However, he had in common with terrorists that he was a non-state actor and attacking civilians (including law enforcement officers and their family members) to create terror in the community - in this case using extreme violence, attacks on civilians and a public manifesto and using the predictable media spotlight - to try to shape public opinion and to force the LAPD to address his claimed grievances regarding what he saw as racism. And his stance of willing to murder others knowing it will likely end in his suicide, probably in “death by cop” are all hallmarks of terrorists that follow a murder/martyrdom mentality in behalf of their cause.

U.N. Dithers in Response to North Korean Provocation

By Joseph Klein

Once again North Korea has thumbed its nose at the international community, including its ally China, by confirming on Tuesday (February 12th) that it had conducted its third and most powerful nuclear test. "A third nuclear test has been successfully staged," the North's state-run Korean Central News agency said. "The nuclear test was conducted as part of measures to protect our national security and sovereignty against the reckless hostility of the United States that violated our republic’s right for a peaceful satellite launch."
