Cross posted from New Zeal It is a central theme of this blog that Barack Obama was promoted to the presidency of the United States, by several Marxist groups including Democratic Socialists of America. While this sounds far – fetched to some, there is nothing new about socialists working inside the Democratic Party to put “their” candidates into very high positions. The late Millie Jeffrey was a leader in the United Auto Workers and an high ranking Democrat for decades.

Attorney General Eric Holder's decision to try Khalid Sheik Mohammed in a federal civilian court is inconsistent, indefensible and inexplicable. It is inconsistent with Holder's own decision to try Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri in a military commission. It is indefensible in light of the unmistakable intentions of the Framers of the Constitution. It is inexplicable by any prudential analysis of the national interest in dealing with an enemy like al-Qaida. Some strange ideological impulse -- rather than common sense and respect for the rule of law -- is driving the Obama administration to give special treatment to the perpetrator of one...

Christina Jeffrey for CongressSunday, November 8, 2009 CONTACT: Dan Cassidy (803) 546-4955 Jeffrey Denounces Pelosi-care GREENVILLE/SPARTANBURG, SC -- Christina Jeffrey, Republican candidate for Congress in South Carolina’s 4th Congressional District (Greenville/Spartanburg), today thanked the Republican delegation for voting against the Health Care Bill which passed the House with 119 Democrats voting “yes” while 39 brave Democrats defied the Speaker and voted “no”. 176 Republicans voted “no” and one voted “yes”. Dr. Jeffrey observed that:“The bill passed last night will cause the typical family of 4 with $105,000 per year in income will spend 20% of its pre-tax income on medical...

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security is planning to move several hundred Border Patrol agents away from the U.S.-Mexico border and will not secure a single additional mile of the U.S. border in fiscal 2010, according to the department's annual performance report. The document -- "Department of Homeland Security Annual Performance Report: Fiscal Years 2008-2010" -- was originally published by the Bush administration on Jan. 15 and was updated by the Obama administration on May 7. Excluding the border between Alaska and Canada, the combined length of the U.S. borders with Mexico and Canada is about 6,000 miles (with almost...

(CNSNews.com) - In a nationally televised primetime press conference tonight, President Barack Obama falsely claimed there are 47 million Americans without health insurance. This inflated claim of the number of uninsured Americans was even higher than the false claim of 46 million uninsured Americans that the president’s Council of Economic Advisers made last month. The Census Bureau says that there are only 35.92 million uninsured Americans and that this number includes 9.1 million people who earn more than $75,000 a year and simply choose not to purchase insurance. “This is not just about the 47 million Americans who have no health...

President Obama posed as a fiscal conservative Monday when he hosted a "fiscal responsibility summit." Close inspection reveals that what he is actually proposing, however, is a massive increase in government debt -- thus raising the already unsustainable burden of government that is certain to fall on our children unless the welfare state is somehow curtailed.

The most telling debate Barack Obama ever had was not with John McCain but Patrick O'Malley, who served with Mr. Obama in the Illinois Senate and engaged him in a colloquy every American should read. The Obama-O'Malley debate was a defining moment for Mr. Obama because it dealt with such a fundamental issue: The state's duty to protect the civil rights of the young and disabled. Some background: Eight years ago, nurse Jill Stanek went public about the "induced-labor abortions" performed at the Illinois hospital where she worked. Often done on Down syndrome babies, the procedure involved medicating the mother...

Last week, I wrote that Barack Obama, as an Illinois state senator, opposed a bill to define as a "person" a fully born baby who survived an abortion. Obama opposed this bill, I wrote, even after an amendment was offered to it that mirrored language included in a virtually identical federal bill that won a 98 to zero vote in the U.S. Senate after Sen. Barbara Boxer said the language in question protected Roe v. Wade. Obama, I reported, killed the Illinois bill by holding it in a committee he chaired, never calling a vote so it could be sent...

Barack Obama is the most pro-abortion presidential candidate ever. He is so pro-abortion that he refused as an Illinois state senator to support legislation to protect babies who survived late-term abortions because he did not want to concede -- as he explained in a cold-blooded speech on the Illinois Senate floor -- that these babies, fully outside their mothers' wombs, with their hearts beating and lungs heaving, were in fact "persons." "Persons," of course, are guaranteed equal protection of the law under the 14th Amendment. In 2004, U.S. Senate-candidate Obama mischaracterized his opposition to this legislation. Now, as a presidential...

While the liberal establishment may be conflicted over whether it wants Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama as the Democratic presidential nominee, there's no doubt which Republican it favors. John McCain is the liberal elite's go-to guy in the GOP. They believe he'll be there for them when they need him. That was the essential message of last week's New York Times editorial endorsing McCain for the Republican nomination. "With a record of working across the aisle to develop sound bipartisan legislation, he would offer a choice to a broader range of Americans than the rest of the Republican field," said...

Exclusive Interview: Huckabee on Education and School Choice By Terence P. Jeffrey CNSNews.com Editor in Chief December 28, 2007 (CNSNews.com) - Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, the Republican presidential candidate, told Cybercast News Service that he supports tuition tax credits for parents who send their children to private schools and that public schools ought to teach children, as per the Declaration of Independence, that there is a God and that our rights come from Him. Cybercast News Service Editor in Chief Terence P. Jeffrey interviewed Huckabee via phone about his views on education and school choice on the morning of...

First, quick recap for folks who don’t watch daytime TV. Dr. Phil has just wrapped up a four-show orgy of marital disaster on Jeffrey and his wife-for-now, Jennifer. To make a long story very short, Jeffrey is the ultimate control freak – filling their house and cars with cameras and remote-controlled listening devices, making wild accusations against her to her and to all friends and relatives. He even went so far as to give himself a fake vasectomy scar because, as he said, “Having another child has always saved out marriage before.” Suffice to say, watching this self-justifying egomaniac try...

Covert US group plots to isolate 'rising' Iran Farah Stockman, Washington January 3, 2007 A SELECT group of US officials has been quietly co-ordinating actions for nearly a year to counter the threat of a nuclear-armed Iran, including increasing the military capabilities of Arab allies such as Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain. The group, known as the Iran Syria Policy and Operations Group, is also giving covert help to Iranian dissidents and building international outrage towards Iran by publicising its alleged role in a 1994 terrorist attack in Argentina. Pentagon officials involved with the group intend to...

One brother gets jail, the other probation The brothers who owned The Station nightclub, where a fast- moving fire on Feb. 20, 2003, killed 100 people, have agreed to plead no contest to involuntary manslaughter charges, effectively ending the criminal prosecution against them. In exchange for their pleas, Superior Court Judge Francis J. Darigan Jr. has agreed to a sentence that calls for no jail time for one of the brothers, Jeffrey A. Derderian. Michael A. Derderian, 45, is to serve four years in prison followed by three years of probation. He also will have an 11-year suspended sentence, which...

Typical Demonrat or Democrat Ed Rendell the governor of Pa came to see the super bowl victory parade in Pittsburgh. I'm thrilled for the Steelers since I'm from Pittsburgh but not about known Eagles fan Rendell being there. I'm thrilled they won the big one but it's laughable Rendell showed up in black and gold to the parade. He must be learning from the best carpetbagger around Hillary Clinton on how to change loyalties with where you need the support the most. She was a loyal cub with a Yankee hat and now Rendell who is an Eagles fan shows...

I'm very angry because I'm sick and tired of what I see as deception and dishonesty within the literary community. It's been going on for far to long and nobody seems to want to pay attention to it or to care about it. I love my publisher which is Publishamerica and it's a first rate Publisher however I have seen firsthand with my own eyes individual authors that meet on discussion boards asking each other to do reviews of one anothers books that most always turn out to be four or five star reviews. These people then go on every...

This is a poem that can be found published in my new book of poetry published through Publishamerica called " From The Inside Out " and it shares my view on abortion that I hope I can also share with you good folks here. - See It’s Carried On - Freedoms have no boundaries like our hearts and like our minds. Freedoms they are endless and they have no ties and binds. But I question motives when they’re used to maim and kill. Can you take a life by drinking water and a pill. If your life’s in danger then...

Why Should Conservative Senators Support Miers? by Terence P. Jeffrey Posted Oct 5, 2005 George W. Bush, it is supposed, has a secret. It is not classified national security information, But whatever its substance, the President evidently found it so persuasive he decided to risk the Supreme Court on it. The secret is when and how—if ever—a middle-aged Harriet Miers made the long philosophical journey all the way from being an Al Gore contributor to being a constitutionalist conservative of such unshakable conviction that she merits lifelong appointment to a sharply divided Supreme Court by a President who promised he...

Eleanor Holmes Norton, Democratic delegate for the District of Columbia, went to the floor of the House last week, huffing and puffing that if Congress allows school choice in the Nation's Capital it will blow the doors off public schools nationwide. "If members vote for vouchers," she said, "they will send a signal to every private school, every organization of private schools, to every organization of religious schools, that this is the time to bring pressure to get the same kind of private school deal that the District of Columbia got." May Norton's nightmare come true. Public schools need competition,...
