Get-Along Republicans Buckle on New START Treaty
The new START treaty, which limits the ability of the United States to defend itself, will be ratified by the Senate today — with the support of numerous Republicans. The hurdle for ratification seemed impossible at first: Reid would need to gain the support of nine Republicans. And really, what Republican in his right mind [...]
Janet Napolitano: We’re Working “24/7, 364″ to Keep Americans Safe
20. December 2010
Um, so, yeah. What? I was going to say something about wanting to know which day I should spend in my bunker but, really, it’s too depressing at this point. Ladies and gentlemen, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano.Your domestic security is in her hands. “What I say to the American people is that… thousands of [...]
Will Mike Pence Run for President? Or Governor?
20. December 2010
I honestly can’t read where he’s going with this. He’d do well pursuing either office — a staunch, electable conservative who can both give a speech and get things done. And he lacks a left-wing media-created caricature, unlike other potential candidates like Palin (she’s too dumb) or Huckabee (he wants a theocracy). If I had [...]
Three Inconvenient Truths About START
20. December 2010
Let Freedom Ring has an email out this evening pointing to the three most disastrous elements of the new START treaty. I’ve reworded some of them slightly to change them from “did you know” to pure statements but the content remains the same. 1) The New START will leave the Russians with thousands more nuclear [...]
Bigger Government: FCC to give itself power to regulate internet
20. December 2010
Constitution? What Constitution? Nothing stands in the way of ever-bigger government! WASHINGTON – The head of the Federal Communications Commission has enough support to pass controversial new rules that will prohibit phone and cable companies from discriminating against or favoring Internet traffic flowing over their broadband networks. More than a year after FCC Chairman Julius [...]
Brown Announces Support for Limiting American Defense
20. December 2010
Senator Scott Brown (R-MA) has announced his support for the new START treaty, which limits the ability of the United States to defend herself. He’s the latest get-a-long Republican to come out in favor of helping cement a foreign policy “accomplishment” for Barack Obama, no matter the cost to the country. Here’s his phone number: [...]
After Secret Session, Gregg Leans Towards Limiting American Self Defense
20. December 2010
Following a secret session for the United States Senate, Senator Judd Gregg (R-NH) has announced that he is leaning towards supporting the START treaty, which limits the ability of the United States to defend itself. Call Senator Gregg, and tell him that American weakness does not make the world a safer place. Tell him to [...]
Nina Totenberg: “I Was — Forgive the Expression — At a Christmas Party”
20. December 2010
So reviled is the hint of religion amongst the politically correct left that one must ask forgiveness for using the word “Christmas” rather than “holiday”. Amazing. Incidentally, Totenberg is a reporter for National Public Radio (NPR). You know, the same taxpayer-funded outlet that fired liberal Juan Williams for daring to possibly offend a Muslim somewhere [...]
Feds Want More Reporting for Rifle Sales
20. December 2010
The assault on the Second Amendment continues. If you can’t destroy the right to keep and bear arms outright, take it down bit by bit — death by a thousand cuts. And, of course, it begins in the name of making everyone safer. It’ll start in the border region under the pretense of stopping the [...]
Placing Obama’s Legacy Above National Security
19. December 2010
The Senate is moving quickly to ratify the flawed START treaty, which limits the ability of the United States to defend itself. Valid concerns and common sense amendments have been brushed aside by Democrats and a few get-a-long Republicans who say such moves could force negotiators back to the table. Wait. What? So apparently the [...]
