No holds barred from the New Jersey Governor: New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie told Kentucky Republicans on Saturday that President Barack Obama was “posing and preening” instead of working to resolve pressing issues facing the country. “He is the most ill-prepared person to assume the presidency in my lifetime,” Christie told some 600 Kentucky Republicans [...]

Fascinating happenings coming from many of the nation’s Catholics… God bless ‘em: Catholic archdioceses and institutions filed suit in federal district courts across the country Monday against the so-called contraception mandate, in one of the biggest coordinated legal challenges to the rule to date. Claiming their “fundamental rights hang in the balance,” a total of [...]

Mike at Cold Fury is about to walk us through the maze that is the liberal mind: Okay, let me see if I have all this straight. Bill Clinton, a white Southerner, was the first black president. Obama, an apparently straight guy, is the first gay president. George Zimmerman, a Hispanic, is a white guy. [...]

Via RealClearPolitics: “Whatever people think about this issue, we know it’s controversial, there’s no denying when a president speaks out for the first time like that, it is history,” co-host of ABC’s “Good Morning America” George Stephanopoulos said to Robin Roberts. And let me tell you, George, I’m getting chills again,” “Good Morning America” co-host [...]

The press, the same people who in essence gave us Obama, are attempting to convince us that they are hard pressed now to understand why the man isn’t more… transparent: The vice president said he is “absolutely comfortable” with same-sex marriage, committing the classic Washington gaffe of accidentally speaking the truth. This bit of straight [...]

Have you seen Obama’s Life of Julia ad? If not, click on the image and watch it. You have to be an idiot I think to find it credible but, given Obama’s history, perhaps he’s just playing to his base. Not sure. Ben Shapiro picks it apart a bit for those who are… well… slow: [...]

That’s the conclusion one easily comes to when they read something like this: In a series of dramatically conflicting developments on Wednesday, the Chinese dissident Chen Guangcheng left American custody under disputed circumstances, and what briefly looked like a deft diplomatic achievement for Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton turned into a potential debacle. Mr. [...]

Lloyd Marcus is doing the wondering from a perspective of wisdom we should all be considering: Most Americans desire a fair and just outcome of this tragedy. But, Lord help us if the evidence proves Zimmerman to be innocent. If Zimmerman is ruled not-guilty and allowed to walk, I foresee Rodney King-type riots in the [...]

The race baiters and race pimps, the gullible and the easily led, and the Obama administration in particular, aren’t going to be delighted by what Reuters has found out about George Zimmerman: On February 26, George Zimmerman shot and killed unarmed black teenager Trayvon Martin in what Zimmerman says was self-defense. The furor that ensued has [...]

The BBC brings us the story of US army chaplain and Catholic priest Emil Kapaun who is being considered for the Medal of Honor and for sainthood by the Church: On 2 November 1950, Father Kapaun made the decision that led to his death.

The question in my mind… is this the same thug culture that some have alleged Trayvon Martin to have been a part of? Color me curious: Jawan’s Girlfriend@WhatItDo_BooBoo “@xSimplyAniya: I think imma personally kill George Zimmerman ..anyone’s welcome to join (:” Leggggoooo ! 23 Apr 12 Reply Retweet Favorite @HeLoves_SexcNay I WOULD KILL DA SHYT [...]

The meme from some quarters is clear. The Vatican’s ‘war on women’ has now been unleashed on innocent nuns. The folks at Crooks and Liars provide the example of coverage coming from the left: During the Great Healthcare Debate of 2010, some brave and influential Catholic nuns stepped forward and stood up for Americans’ right to have [...]

That and more from Robert Avrech who notices the lack of interest in an event that can’t be used to foist an agenda on the gullible and the emotive: That’s because their outrage is only a tactic in the liberal war against Conservatives. Liberals are not really upset about Trayvon Martin’s death. They only view Martin as [...]

… to have reverse engineered the top secret aircraft: Gen. Amir Ali Hajizadeh, chief of the aerospace division of the powerful Revolutionary Guards, related what he said were details of the aircraft’s operational history to prove his claim that Tehran’s military experts had extracted data from the U.S. RQ-170 Sentinel captured in December in eastern [...]

Lots going on in the case today but the biggest news has got to be the release by ABC News of the following photo: He apologized to Martin’s parents, an apology that was promptly rejected by the family attorney. What is becoming clearer is that there needs to be lots of apologies put forth and [...]

LZ Granderson writes a weekly column for CNN.com and is a National Lesbian and Gay Journalists Association journalist of the year (which makes me wonder, how exactly do you prove to the association that you’re really a lesbian or gay… a home video perhaps? But I digress)… Granderson is also quite peeved at Mr. Nugent: Ted Nugent [...]

Yid with Lid: Tonight [Last night] at sunset begins a very solemn day on the Jewish Calendar, Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance day. It is observed on the 27th day of the month of Nisan, which marks the day when Allied troops liberated the first Nazi concentration camp at Buchenwald, Germany, in 1945. The full name [...]

Now it’s nearly two dozen call girls who were involved: Twenty or 21 women were brought back to a hotel in Colombia by U.S. Secret Service and military personnel in an incident last week involving alleged misconduct with prostitutes, U.S. Senator Susan Collins said on Tuesday. Collins was briefed by the director of the Secret [...]

Or maybe he simply cut himself shaving: Neighbors of George Zimmerman say he had bandages on his nose and head the day after he shot dead Trayvon Martin, supporting statements by the neighborhood watch volunteer that he was beaten in a confrontation with the black Florida teenager. The extent of Zimmerman’s injuries could be crucial [...]

And get “off the stage right now”. So says Dr. Boyce Watkins, Professor at Syracuse University and founder of Your Black World Coalition. An excerpt of his recent piece: I haven’t spoken with Rev. Al Sharpton in a few months. But if we were still speaking and he were to ask me what to do with the mother of Trayvon [...]

Patrick Kennedy confirms that which only the psychophants will deny… the Obama administration is corrupt: Access to the Obama White House is in direct correlation to the amount of money donated to the president’s reelection effort and the Democratic party, the New York Times reports today. The Times reports: “those who donated the most to Mr. Obama and the [...]

Andrew Malcolm is wondering what happened to the 2008 Obama: Has anyone seen Barack Obama recently? You know, the optimistic hopeful fellow with the charming smile who promised so many positive things four and five years ago, how he was going to change the harsh, partisan tone of our nation’s capital and bring the country together [...]

Mark Shea brings us to events taking place in Britain: Whipped Christians, timid about appearing “judgmental”, often capitulate to this sort of draconian post-Christian appeal to “judge not, lest ye be judged” and back down. However, as this video demonstrates, some Britons are beginning to get a little taste of what happens when watery post-Christian secularism, accustomed [...]

Bob Owens walks back his George Zimmerman is a murderer claim made just a few weeks ago: How naive that post now seems. The narrative created by the media at that time was one of an innocent life taken for no reason at all, by a much older, heavier, and racist man itching for a [...]

Ann Althouse on the country’s state in the wake of the Trayvon Martin shooting and the fact that George Zimmerman’s life is being publicly threatened by a hate group while Obama’s justice department is silent: Good lord, what an ugly place we are in right now. Who would have thought that in the last year [...]
