Over the weekend, a headline from the Daily Caller caught my eye: “Conservatives Are Greatest Threat To Nation, Obama Suggests.” It was a look at some comments Barack Obama (or whatever his name is) made in an interview with New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman. So, I pulled up the Times column, “Obama on the World,” and braced myself for the usual outrage that accompanies reading most anything that comes out of Obama’s mouth. I wasn’t disappointed. Most of the column was Obama’s deflecting, blaming and making excuses for his disastrous foreign policy and declaring that Israel should learn to...

PHOENIX, Arizona (WNB) - Noted philanthropist Scooter Van Neuter on Tuesday announced the formation of an organization calling for President Obama to personally investigate the growing Ebola virus epidemic. The group, Americans For Obama Ebola (AFOE) demands the President visit the West African country of Sierra Leone in order to personally assess the situation. "While the President spends his time golfing and figuring out how to import more government-dependent welfare parasites, the world is being threatened with an epidemic of unimaginable proportions. We demand President Obama personally visit hospitals in West Africa to see for himself the toll this disease...

Listen to an audio version of this column We have seen that there is truly no outrageous lie Barack Obama (or whatever his name is) won't tell, and he lied yet again in a White House statement from July 27th in "honor" of the end of Islam's Ramadan holiday. In part, the statement reads: While Eid marks the completion of Ramadan, it also celebrates the common values that unite us in our humanity and reinforces the obligations that people of all faiths have to each other, especially those impacted by poverty, conflict, and disease. In the United States, Eid also...

The culture of death was given a win on Tuesday when a three-judge panel of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled against the 2012 Mississippi law that requires abortion “doctors” to have admitting privileges at local hospitals. Therefore, Mississippi’s last remaining abortion mill in Jackson can continue to practice its baby killing. The Jackson Free Press reported on Tuesday: The Jackson Women’s Health Organization was unable to obtain the privileges and challenged the constitutionality of the law in court and succeeded in obtaining an injunction against the law in federal court. The court only found the law unconstitutional...

I’ve seen few if any conservatives who can stay on point and stay on issue like Ryan Anderson of the Heritage Foundation in this video. [Here's the short 4:25 video exchange between the homosexual and Ryan Anderson. Spot on response by Anderson, worth watching!] In a forum, a homosexual man asks Anderson why he and his partner shouldn’t be able to file a joint tax return like married couples can. While most conservatives (if they can even answer this question at all, to their shame) fall back on circular arguments and “just because,” Anderson illustrates where the principle embraced by...

Listen to an audio version of this column In her Wednesday column, "Eyes on the Prize," Ann Coulter again weighs in on the Republican primary run-off here in Mississippi, and again, her assertions about Chris McDaniel and his supporters are wrong. I guess I shouldn't be surprised at what she says. After all, she has been a big supporter of Mitt Romney, Chris Christie and Mitch McConnell, none of whom would easily be mistaken for a "conservative." It seems all that matters to Ann Coulter is that an "R," not a "D," is the winner, no matter how liberal the...

Listen to an audio version of this column The chaplain of one of our local TEA Party groups shared with us a column he stumbled on, which was written just before the 2008 national election that saw a real-life Manchurian Candidate installed in our presidency. The column, by former White House staff economist and budget analyst Jim Simpson, was published September 28th 2008 at American Thinker, and is titled "Barack Obama and the Strategy of Manufactured Crisis." It's a lengthy essay that connects the dots of radical leftist – or Marxist, if you will – influence on Barack Obama (or...

This week marks the 70th anniversary of a plot whose success might well have spared millions of lives, while claiming that of history’s most infamous mass-murderer, Adolf Hitler. The elaborate conspiracy centered on Claus von Stauffenberg was the most well-prepared and organized attempt to put an end to Hitler, but it was scarcely the first. The number of serious attempts on Hitler’s life would fill a book and indeed have; Roger Moorhouse’s Killing Hitler (2006), for example, covers the ground of several such attempts from the moment Hitler came to power in 1933, at which time his security detail...

From behind a smoking sniper rifle high atop his ivory tower peers the secular-”progressive.” He surveys his many victims, strewn across the American landscape below and mockingly sneers, “War on Christianity? What war on Christianity?” He then resumes shooting, all the while insisting that those uncooperative Christians who scatter for cover behind the word of God and the U.S. Constitution somehow suffer from a “persecution complex” (the baker, the photographer, the florist, the innkeeper, the Christian school administrator, etc.). Though there are many, it is plain for all to see that abortion and “sexual liberation” remain the two principal...

Listen to an audio version of this column On Sunday afternoon, my husband and I finally set aside a little time to make a very rare visit to the movie theater to see Dinesh D'Souza's, America: Imagine the World Without Her. I know many clear-minded people have already written glowing reviews, but there's always room for one more big thumbs-up. A number of liberals have also written typically spiteful "reviews" in an effort to thwart attendance. But, as we fully understand, if liberals hate it, then we know it's probably good, and this is certainly true with America. From the...

There is no mainstream media report of this yet (that I was able to find). Pray for Israel! Please remove this post, Admin Moderator, if this is not appropriate. Gadi Adelman, host of America Akbar Radio, just posted (I shared on my page to keep it at the top): "URGENT! BREAKING AS I WRITE THIS... Israel is currently starting the ground invasion in to Gaza! It is currently 2am local time in Israel, they are shelling from the ground, small arms are being used and a reporter in Gaza just stated that he has seen Israeli Special Forces landing on...

RAMALLAH, West Bank (WNB) - A Facebook post by Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has apparently ignited bitter infighting between the PA and Islamic forces united with them against Israel. The post, intended to encourage the Islamic factions battling Israel, features a stylized image of three Islamic fighters with the al-Aqsa Mosque and Dome of Rock in the background. The conflict appears to be based on the fact the fighters are wearing colorful thongs and presumably gay. Shortly after the post appeared on Facebook, Hamas and Islamic jihad fighters attacked Palestinian Authority offices, providing Israel with a welcome lull in...

After reading Ann Coulter's all-out scathing attack on Chris McDaniel and grassroots conservatives yesterday, the question must be asked: what in the world has happened to her? Has her brain been mysteriously rewired by the political elite, like the vice-presidential candidate in Denzel Washington's remake of the Manchurian Candidate? First she takes a big fat fee to be the keynote speaker at a big pro-gay extravaganza, Homocon, then endorses Mitt Romney early in the 2012 campaign, and now she condescendingly attacks the Tea Party. With friends like this... Worse, her attack on McDaniel and his camp is wrongheaded and unprincipled...

Listen to an audio version of this column By now, you know that the God-hating Left has thrown itself on the ground in fits over the Supreme Court's modest Hobby Lobby decision. Last week, the Court, by a scary-thin, one-vote margin, simply affirmed that Christian business owners cannot be forced to pay for abortion-inducing drugs in their employee "health" insurance policies. Judging by the Left's nonsensical, hysterical reaction to the decision, you would think the end of all things had come. Illustrating this, we have seen a flood of absurd, lying reactions out of everyone from Hillary Clinton to the...

A rash of animal shootings by police officers nationwide has law-enforcement agencies running for cover amid growing public outrage that could force state legislatures to require greater accountability from men and women in uniform. Police in Utah shot a family’s dog while searching for a lost boy, prompting hundreds of pet owners to protest June 28 in front of the Salt Lake City Police Department headquarters. They carried signs demanding “justice for Geist,” a 110-pound Weimaraner shot by a city cop within the dog’s fenced-in back yard. The “missing” boy was later found sleeping in his home. State police in...

It's been a week since we witnessed here in Mississippi one of the most dastardly, corrupt Republican run-off election schemes we've ever seen. By now, you know much of the story. 42-year Washington incumbent U.S. Senator Thad Cochran was almost certain to lose the Republican primary run-off to conservative Mississippi State Senator Chris McDaniel. Cochran had already lost the first primary election to McDaniel, but sadly, McDaniel was just shy of the 50 percent of the vote needed to secure the win. So, former Mississippi Governor Haley Barbour, a close ally of Cochran, and his Democrat surrogates, went to work...

Back when the leadership of Boy Scouts of America bowed down at the altar of “Big Gay” by allowing openly homosexual boys into their ranks, we warned you that the militant homosexual activists would not be satisfied with this terrible capitulation. No, they wanted openly homosexual men to be allowed as troop leaders and other administrators. They’re still pushing for this. The latest in-your-face statement is being made this Sunday in New York’s homosexual “pride” parade. Here’s most of the press release issued Monday by the radical homosexual advocacy group, Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation. Read it and cringe:...

Listen to an audio version of this column We have seen in the past several years under the Barack Obama (or whatever his name is) administration a militant homosexual movement on steroids, running at warp speed. Many of us have been warning you that this movement is not what it seems, what it's being sold as to the American public. While its proponents claim it is simply about gaining "marriage equality" and "civil rights" for homosexual, "transgender" and other sexual deviants, that is not the case. At its core, this movement is about tyranny. It's about subverting the rights of...

WASHINGTON (WNB) - In response to Congressional demands that the "crashed" IRS hard drive containing Lois Lerner's emails be turned over for forensic analysis, IRS officials now claim the hard drive was last seen aboard Malaysia Airlines flight 370. "The hard drive containing all emails to and from Mrs. Lerner and several other employees malfunctioned and was being sent to a recycling center. Unfortunately it was being transported aboard Malaysia flight 370. If not for this fact, we would be more than happy to surrender the hard drive," said an IRS statement released Thursday morning. The statement included a photo...

Barack Obama (or whatever his name is) and his administration have become so blatantly lawless that non-zombie Americans are more furious than ever that no one in power will move to hold him and his collaborators accountable for their illegal actions against the United States. Many of us wear out our keyboards demanding action against him as we repeat the ever-expanding laundry list of Obama’s crimes against the Constitution and malfeasance in office. Meanwhile, mealy-mouthed congressional “Republicans” sit on their hands and allow him to get away with murder. Treason is on that laundry list. You don’t give aid and...
