Van Jones was recently ousted from his White House position as the so-called "green jobs czar" after his admitted communism...

(Reuters) - The United States has dropped out of the "top 20" in a global league table of least corrupt nations, tarnished by financial scandals and the influence of money in politics, Transparency International said on Tuesday. Somalia was judged the most corrupt country, followed by Myanmar and Afghanistan at joint second-worst and then by Iraq, in the Berlin-based watchdog TI's annual corruption perceptions index (CPI). The United States fell to 22nd from 19th last year, with its CPI score dropping to 7.1 from 7.5 in the 178-nation index, which is based on independent surveys on corruption. This was the...

WASHINGTON — Democratic candidates across the country are opening a fierce offensive of negative advertisements against Republicans, using lawsuits, tax filings, reports from the Better Business Bureau and even divorce proceedings to try to discredit their opponents and save their Congressional majority. Opposition research and attack advertising are used in almost every election, but these biting ads are coming far earlier than ever before, according to party strategists. The campaign has intensified in the last two weeks as early voting begins in several states and as vulnerable incumbents try to fight off an onslaught of influences by outside groups. As...

Can an immigrant who resides legally in the U.S. on a work visa but who voted illegally in a presidential election year still become a naturalized U.S. citizen? Yes, actually. Especially if the Department of Homeland Security sends a letter instructing him to request removal from the voter rolls. That happened this summer in Putnam County, Tenn., where County Administrator of Elections Debbie Steidl says an immigrant who illegally registered to vote – and then voted – in 2004 is now seeking to become a U.S. citizen. Steidl says the man gave her a form letter from the DHS instructing...

Obama Justice Department outrages never cease. The politically charged gang led by Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. is more interested in helping felons vote than in helping the military to vote. Sen. John Cornyn, Texas Republican, has put a legislative hold on the already troubled nomination of James M. Cole to be deputy attorney general until the attorney general ensures full protection for voting rights of our military (and associated civilian personnel) stationed abroad. The senator is right to raise a ruckus. Mr. Cornyn co-authored a 2009 law mandating that states mail absentee ballots to military voters at least...

Exactly one year ago, ACORN threatened to sue former insiders who formed a whistleblower group aimed at exposing the misappropriation and co-mingling of funds that have been the subject of congressional investigations. In a letter dated June 11, 2009, ACORN’s legal counsel demanded that activists operating under the banner of ACORN 8 “cease and desist” in their use of the ACORN name and set a deadline of June 30, 2009 for compliance.

The bill to be introduced within weeks by Council members Ken Cockrel and Kwame Kenyatta will provide felons with the opportunity to compete for job placement with Detroit on an equal footing with law abiding...

You probably would not believe this if you did not hear it for yourself. On June 4th, Democrat Florida Congressmen Alan Grayson suggested “tracking down every single person who has said “Drill Baby Drill” and putting them all in prison…with Michael Steele” on the Stephanie Miller radio show: AudioCongressman Grayson may not actually believe in carrying out his idiotic comments literally. However, you have got to look back at when our federal government actually imprisoned thousands of AMERICAN CITIZENS during WWI and WWII – because of their race or because they spoke out against the government.
