During a National Press Club address on how to combat Islamists, Admiral James A. "Ace" Lyons (U.S. Navy, Ret.), former Commander-in-Chief, U.S. Pacific Fleet, said that under the administration of Barack Obama, the Muslim Brotherhood has infiltrated all of the National Security Agencies of the United States. (Watch video at link.) The 87-year-old, four star Admiral, who served the United States in the military branch of the Navy, told the National Press Club that "the transformation of America has been in full swing ever since 2008." "President Obama's 'no show' was an embarrassment for all Americans," he continued. "But it...

No matter how many self-strewn rose petals in Obama’s Conquering Hero Act of April 2011; no matter how elaborate the secrecy of his recent trip to Afghanistan to deliver a safe...

Who knew? The nuclear-freeze movement, an enterprise run from the Kremlin during the 1970s and '80s, is alive and well.
