The
Left Rewrites History
By
Joe
Messina
I was floored by a quote about the history of
Democrats on their national Web site. It read: "For more than 200 years,
our party has led the fight for civil rights, health care, Social Security,
workers’ rights, and women’s rights.” Is that how they really see history? If
that doesn’t scare you, and cause you to question pretty much every statement
out of their mouths, I’m not sure what will. Let’s just take a look at a few of
those claims. [more...]
The
Death of the U.S.-Egypt Alliance
By
Joseph
Klein
President
Obama’s misguided attempt to bend Egyptian political affairs in the Muslim
Brotherhood’s favor is unraveling the carefully nurtured military and economic
alliance between the U.S. and Egypt, which has served for decades to stabilize
that vital part of the Middle East. First, after throwing former Egyptian President
Hosni Mubarak under the bus, the Obama administration did everything it could
to portray the Muslim Brotherhood as a worthy organization committed to
democratic principles of governance. The U.S. was seen by many secular
Egyptians, including those who spearheaded the original revolution that led to
Mubarak’s overthrow, as helping to unfairly tip the scales in favor of the
Muslim Brotherhood’s candidates. [more...]
Have
Republicans Already Lost the White House?
By
Bill
Glynn
Republicans
may have already lost the White House in 2016 and may have to hang on just to
keep the House in 2014 which is in jeopardy. It's not media domination, rock
star politicians and the always on Democratic campaign mode; it's deeper,
inside the party and on the fringe. I love the Tea Party, but there is no
organization nationally to guide their alliance with the Republicans and
frankly many of them just do not want the Republican that can win an election
to win because they are not conservative enough. The string of
unelectable candidates that pushed easy wins aside for the Republicans is long
and will grow longer. The Tea Party is the spoiler now and they do not
realize how grave that is. With good intentions, they are now going to
force very good Republican leaders from races and chances to win a general
election and push into the general election those that will be thumped hard by
a Democratic opponent. [more...]
Obamacare: Smoke and Mirrors
Our
healthcare system has been the envy of the world with both clinical and
research innovation at the heart of its foundation. What made our system
exceptional was the fact that it was based on free enterprise. Doctors have
been free to practice medicine under the guidelines set forth by their
Hippocratic Oath and patients were free to seek treatment from physicians of
their choice. Initially it was very simple and affordable – the independent
private physician had both a moral/ethical and a fiduciary responsibility to
the patient. The doctor/patient relationship was sacrosanct and there was no
third party middle man. Since 1948, when the United Nations created the World
Health Organization, there has been an inexorable movement towards
centralization of the power to take decisions away from the individual and give
them to the government in the form of regulation and mandates. This model was
adopted readily by other countries and is the underpinning of socialized
medicine. The U.S. was notably the only western country to hold out. However, that
changed in1965 when Medicare was passed as part of the Social Security
amendments. Medicare was set up as a federal program that provided socialized
medicine for America’s seniors. [more...

Has
Pres. Obama Reduced American Prestige Around the World?
Has
the aimless Obama Presidency now reduced American prestige overseas? Are
foreign governments in Moscow, Cairo, Tehran and elsewhere laughing at the U.S.
instead of respecting us? Where is the Republican alternative? Who is up and
who is down for the 2016 presidential race? [more...]
