The Washington Blade which identifies itself as “America’s leading gay news source” reported on Monday, July 30, that the Democratic Party platform had approved the language of “pro-LGBT positions” to be included in the party’s platform. LGBT stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender for those […]

It’s already an anomaly in the business world because of a “closed on Sunday” policy, but the Chick-fil-A restaurant chain finds itself in the middle of a controversy over same-sex marriage that it didn’t create.

The Foundation “To take from one, because it is thought his own industry and that of his fathers has acquired too much, in order to spare to others, who, or whose fathers, have not exercised equal industry and skill, is to violate arbitrarily the first principle of association, the guarantee to everyone the free exercise […]

By Alan Caruba ~ Mexico has always been seen as somewhat entertaining in American culture. In films from the midpoint of the last century, Mexicans were either buffoonish, but evil cutthroats or amusing sidekicks. For years Mexico was a vacation destination for Americans. Not any more. Today and in a growing crescendo for many years, […]

The “Worst President Ever”

July 29, 2012 by

2

By Alan Caruba ~ You have to know how poorly Barack Hussein Obama has performed in office when the phrase the “worst President ever” has already become a cliché.

By Ken McIntyre ~ While big-city mayors crow like roosters to demonstrate who’s toughest on “Chick-fil-A values,” shredding constitutional free speech guarantees as they strut for the media, Heritage’s Jennifer Marshall helpfully shines some light on the chicken franchise’s impressive work to strengthen families. Of course, Chick-fil-A President Dan Cathy wasn’t making a speech or […]

BFD: A Biden Fabulist Dud

July 28, 2012 by

0

By Michelle Malkin ~ Vice President Joe Biden, America’s textbook Beltway barnacle, still labors under the illusion that he is America’s middle-class Everyman. And now, he’s gone and dragged his adult children into the land of Democratic make-believe. This is a BFD: a Biden Fabulist Dud. As usual with White House class-warfare demagoguery, reality doesn’t […]

July 28, 2012 by

0

By Andrew Bolt~ Several Leftist stupidities collide to put at risk Victoria’s power supplies. First stupidity is to give in to the religious green paranoia of carbon dioxide.

July 27, 2012 by

By Michelle Malkin ~ It’s one thing for Hollywood moppets and television Muppets to protest Chick-fil-A over the fast-food chain president’s support for traditional marriage. They’re private citizens and entities. But when an elected public official wields the club of government against a Christian business in the name of “tolerance,” it’s not harmless kid stuff. […]
