Constitution 101:
The Meaning and History of the Constitution

Available to you, your family, your friends,
and all Americans.

Weeks One & Two Now Available - Sign Up TODAY!

Dr. Larry P. Arnn

Over the years, many friends of Hillsdale, those who never attended college here, have said to me: "Dr. Arnn, I wish I could take Hillsdale's Constitution course!"

In response to these requests, this past year, for the first time ever, Hillsdale College offered the "Introduction to the Constitution" lecture series at no charge. Frankly, I wasn't sure what sort of a response a course like this would have.

That's why I was excited to see that YOU and almost 200,000 other people from all over the United States registered for "Introduction to the Constitution."

Thank you very much for registering and participating. I hope you learned a lot from the series.

I was thrilled, not only by the response, but at what it indicates: Americans are willing and eager learn about the Constitution and to defend the principles of liberty that made America so prosperous!

And this re-awakening of national interest in the Constitution comes not a minute too soon.

Now, for the first time ever, Hillsdale College is offering a no-cost 10-week online Constitution course based on the class Hillsdale College students must complete for graduation:

"Constitution 101: The Meaning and History of the Constitution"

This course on the U.S. Constitution is available online at no charge to anyone who wants to understand and defend the timeless principles of liberty upon which our nation was founded!

I am proud to be teaching part of our NEW "Constitution 101" course and hope YOU will be one of my students again!

"Constitution 101" begins on February 20, 2012, and concludes the week of April 30. It will cover such topics as the Declaration of Independence and its connection to the Constitution, how the Constitution is structured to protect individual liberty and ensure good government, the crisis of constitutional government faced by Abraham Lincoln during the Civil War, and modern challenges to the Constitution during the "Progressive" era.

It is my honor to teach the first class, "The American Mind," and the final class, "The Recovery of the Constitution." All of the classes will be taught by Hillsdale College professors - the top teachers in their field and the same ones who instruct our students here on Hillsdale's campus.

 March 23rd, 2012, marks an important and unfortunate anniversary. It will have been exactly two years since President Obama forced his unpopular health care takeover onto the American people. Americans for Prosperity has educated the public about the dangers of government interference in the health care market for the past several years, and now the Supreme Court is set to hear arguments and make a ruling on that very issue. As you are most likely aware, the U.S. Supreme Court will be considering the constitutionality of several elements of the President's health care bill. This may be our best chance to overturn this offense against our health care freedoms. That's why Americans for Prosperity will be hosting a Hands Off My Health Care rally for free-market grassroots activists from across the country at the Supreme Court on March 27th. Details can be found below.

Dear Group:

Please join us and Americans for Prosperity - Pennsylvania as we ride to DC to tell the Supreme Court to STOP THE OBAMA HEALTHCARE TAKEOVER!

Help Principled Candidates Win

Campaign Training Seminar

March 16-17, 2012 ~ Harrisburg, PA

Voters today - perhaps more than at any time in recent history - are yearning for principled candidates committed to standing strong for the timeless values upon which our country was founded and standing stronger against the politics-as-usual establishment working to undermine those values.

The Winning Campaigns Training Seminar shows principled candidates, campaign staff, and grassroots activists how to run winning campaigns without compromising their values - with a special emphasis placed on running and winning primaries. You'll learn:

•   Secrets campaign pros use to develop winning strategies.
•   How to raise all the money you need to win even if you've never raised money before.
•   Keys to persuading voters in-person, through the mail, over the phone, and online.

Who should attend?
Current & future candidates, campaign staff and consultants, campaign volunteers, grassroots citizen activists.

What's the cost?
Nothing, it's free, but you must register in advance. A group of donors concerned about the political leadership in our state have generously underwritten the cost of the seminar.

True the Vote Projects Less Than Half of 1.5+ Million Walker Recall Petitions will be Eligible

Posted By James M. Simpson On February 29, 2012 @ 11:41 am In 2012 Election, Big Labor, Justice/Legal, Local Government, News, Politics, State Government, State Politics | 27 Comments

True the Vote ^[1] issued a press release yesterday ^[2] detailing preliminary results of their recall analysis. While the unions will likely get the approximately 540,000 petitions they needed to force a recall vote against Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker, hundreds of thousands of submitted petitions had problems. Following is the breakdown:

* Signatures that were partially marked through, illegible, possibly false, mismatched or otherwise compromised

The organization responsible for the recall is United Wisconsin ^[3], a PAC backed by the usual suspects: the National Education Association'sWisconsin affiliate ^[4], the American Federation of Teachers ^[5], AFSCME ^[6], a "progressive" group named One Wisconsin Now ^[7], and theWisconsin Democrat Party ^[8]. Well funded, the group used Cloward-Piven ^[9] swamping tactics to overwhelm the tiny Wisconsin Government Accountability Board - tasked with certifying the recall - with questionable petitions. Not surprisingly, GAB announced they would make only spot checks, claiming they didn't have the manpower for a full review.

But a full check was in order as many inconsistencies immediately appeared. The number of blank, incomplete, invalid and outright fraudulent petitions makes clear United Wisconsin's intentions. One Democrat even appears to have entered his brother's name four separate times ^[10]. His brother was against the recall. He also signed up his mother, other family members and possibly even neighbors without their assent or knowledge. The entire effort recalls the familiar Democrat battle cry: "Win, even if you have to sell your mother."

The big news here, however, is the massive, rapid response to assure the legitimacy of this recall, and the groundswell of support it received from all over the country. Partnering with Wisconsin Grandsons of Liberty ^[11] and We the People of the Republic ^[12], True the Vote ^[1] created an online platform for processing and checking the 1.5 + million petitions. A call went out and over 14,000 volunteers from 49 states responded to help input the data. They have so far analyzed over 91 percent of the records in 22 days! The system uses a triple-blind check to assure accuracy. Each petition has been independently reviewed an average of 2.67 times.

Everywhere I go I hear the same question from concerned Americans: "What can we do?" True the Vote has created the perfect answer, a system that allows you to pitch in from the comfort and safety of your own home. There is yet more work to do and they are still looking ^[13] for volunteers.

Vote fraud is the most important battle we have to face this year. Wikileaks has just revealed ^[14] that the Democrats engaged in massive fraud in 2008. 2012 will be worse. Now is the time to jump in ^[13].

We have an amazing opportunity before us today, to score a BIG WIN for taxpayers and small businesses...but we can't do it without your help!

Please click here to send an email to your Representative and tell him or her to vote yes on the prevailing wage reform bills before the House today!

At 1pm, our PA Legislators are voting to amend the prevailing wage laws that have long favored unions and hurt working families and small businesses!  

Could you please email your legislator right now and ask him or her to vote YES on two prevailing wage reform bills: H.B. 1329 ("Threshold") and H.B. 1685 ("Jobs Classification")?

Our politicians must not only hear from the unions...they must hear from YOU and I...the people who bear the burden of paying for these bills!

Here's a quick overview of the bills:

The "Jobs Classification Bill" will require Pennsylvania to define job classifications on public works projects. The lack of definitions has been used by some unions to attack and file frivolous grievances against small business owners, costing Pennsylvania jobs and tax dollars.

The "threshold bill" will end the artificially low estimated cost of total project from $25,000 to conform to the Consumer Price Index of the previous calendar year. The current amount was based on the 1963 Consumer Price Index and allowed prevailing wage to kick in at too low a threshold making it a costly endeavor for school districts and municipalities to fund minor projects.

Will you please ask your legislator to vote "YES" to H.B. 1329 ("Threshold") and H.B. 1685 ("Jobs Classification")? Don't miss this chance to score a win for the taxpayers and small businesses of Pennsylvania!

Thank you for all your hard work!

In Liberty and Solidarity,

RedState Morning Briefing

For March 2, 2012

1. RedState Gathering 2012

Registration for our 4th Annual RedState Gathering is officially open! I would like to extend exclusive, early bird registration and pricing to RedState Morning Briefing subscribers.

The 2011 RedState Gathering featured an all-star cast and schedule, highlighted by Governor Rick Perry announcing his Presidential campaign. Without a doubt, this year's RedState Gathering - double the length of last year's event and just weeks out from the Republican National Convention - will prove to be the best one yet.

The 2012 RedState Gathering will be held August 2-5 at the Omni Jacksonville Hotel in Jacksonville, Florida. With two full days of speakers and activities this year, the schedule will not disappoint. We will once again have an all-star lineup and I will share speaker commitments with you as soon as I am able.

One exciting announcement I am able to make is that Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal will be a keynote speaker.

Governor Jindal's unprecedented primary landslide re-election just months ago further supported the frequency of his name coming up in the 2012 vice presidential discussion. We are thrilled to have him at the RedState podium this year.

Also, after so many fine compliments the last couple of years about American Majority's training sessions, we're taking them from being a sponsor of the Gathering to being our partner.

As I have frequently said, American Majority provides some of the best grassroots training for conservatives anywhere in America. Adding an extra day to this year's Gathering, we're going to expand American Majority's training to make sure we're not just headed to Florida to listen, but to learn and mobilize for the fight against Barack Obama in November.

2. Andrew Breitbart, 1969-2012

It's always tough to lose a friend. It's exponentially tougher when that friend leaves behind a wife and four children, who will no longer have their husband and father in their lives, and who should remain in all our prayers.

Add to that just how huge a figure Andrew Breitbart had become in the conservative movement, and you will begin to understand just how big a loss we all suffered yesterday, when we lost a giant.

3. A Supernova Now Dark

There will be a number of posts from people on this site and others today about Andrew Breitbart. Editorially, you're supposed to have one post that everyone can rally around, but Andrew Breitbart was such a multifaceted fascinating renaissance man. We each have our own descriptions and stories of Breitbart.

When I first heard the news I thought it was another twitter hoax. But it sadly is not.

Andrew Breitbart was, in every room I ever saw him in, the brilliant bright light and ball of energy people gravitated to and fixated on. It is like a supernova has gone dark.

4. After the Fact, Romney's Supporters in Michigan Seemingly Rewrite the Delegate Rules

According to the Michigan Republican Party rules, each candidate who wins a congressional district will win a delegate per district. Romney and Santorum split the districts, so they each got 14 delegates. There are two statewide delegates.

The statewide delegates are divided based on a mathematic calculation for each candidate who gets over 15% of the vote. In Michigan, as Right Michigan explains, Romney and Santorum each got one.

So while Romney got just shy of 2% more of the vote than Santorum in Michigan, he and Santorum split the statewide delegates and wound up tied 15 to 15 in Michigan.

But the Romney camp cannot have that. This is Romney's home state. Romney has to win.

So last night, the Michigan GOP's Credentials Committee voted to take a delegate away from Santorum and give it Mitt Romney.

They claim this had all been decided back on February 4, 2012, but it is clear from the memo documenting that meeting that no one else read the delegate count that way.

5. The World Gets Newer And Braver Every Day.

Perhaps someone smarter and better than I should handle this latest moral outrage of the Secular Anti-Humanists. It deserves opposition greater than that which I could provide alone. However, if nobody protested maybe the very stones would cry out.

The United Kingdom once had a great and venerable institution of higher learning known throughout the entire world as The Oxford University. The school still exists; the greatness can no longer be attested to without vigorous moral dispute. They have financed research for an article entitled "After-birth abortion: why should the baby live?" written by Alberto Giubilini and Francesca Minerva. The abstract of this despicable work of Anti-Humanism follows below.

Hillsdale College is a private, coeducational, residential, liberal arts college with approximately 1,400 students. Founded in 1844, the College remains, in the words of its Articles of Association, "grateful to God for the inestimable blessings resulting from the presence of civil and religious liberty and intelligent piety" in our nation, and dedicated to "the diffusion of sound learning" that is "essential to the perpetuity of these blessings."

Hillsdale College is distinguished by its rigorous core curriculum, by its principled rejection of federal and state taxpayer funding, and by the pledge of its Board of Trustees to resists any attempts by the government to regulate its internal affairs.

Hillsdale College promotes the principles of liberty nationwide through its national speech digest, Imprimis, which has a monthly circulation of over 2 million, and through several outreach programs. In 2008, Hillsdale launched its Allan P. Kirby, Jr. Center for Constitutional Studies and Citizenship in Washington, D.C. The College will also launch the Hillsdale Graduate School of Statesmanship in fall 2012.

BLAME BUSH FOR EVERYTHING! Obama Administration Refuses to Man-up About Afghanistan

Ralph Peters 

Never has there been such a huge coalition of Israeli enemies as those arrayed against her in this international conference, including U.S. and European academics.

March 1, 2012     When will the
groveling end?    

When will the unseemly groveling end?

According to an AP story (below), "A senior Pentagon official apologized Friday to Washington-area Muslims for the burning of Qurans..."

Not just once, but multiple times.

One of those apologized to was Mohamed Magid, president of ISNA (Islamic Society of North America).

Let's all remember that militant Muslims defaced these Qur'ans in violation of sharia law. These jihadist enemy combatants were using the Qur'ans to pass messages to each other.

Scroll to the end of the article below and you'll be shocked to learn that one Muslim interviewed did not believe the latest apology was sufficient. No amount of groveling will satisfy, so enough already!

Wisse: Harvard's Latest Assault on Israel

Promoting the Jewish State's destruction at a school dedicated to 'democratic governance.'

 

Ruth Wisse..
Wall Street Journal..
28 February '12..





In 1948, when the Arab League declared war on Israel, no one imagined that six decades later American universities would become its overseas agency. Yet campus incitement against Israel has been growing from California to the New York Island. A conference at Harvard next week called "Israel/Palestine and the One-State Solution" is but the latest aggression in an escalating campaign against the Jewish state.

The sequence is by now familiar: Arab student groups and self-styled progressives organize a conference or event like "Israeli Apartheid Week," targeting Israel as the main problem of the Middle East. They frame the goals of these events in buzzwords of "expanding the range of academic debate." But since the roster of speakers and subjects makes their hostile agenda indisputable, university spokespersons scramble to dissociate their institutions from the events they are sponsoring. Jewish students and alums debate whether to ignore or protest the aggression, and newspapers fueling the story give equal credence to Israel's attackers and defenders.

Obama: "Son of Islam"?

by Raymond Ibrahim
February 27, 2012 at 4:00 am

http://www.stonegateinstitute.org/2891/obama-islam

According to Sharia law, if one's father is Muslim, one automatically becomes Muslim. "Most of the Muslims I know (me included) can't seem to accept that Obama is not a Muslim."

Many in the media are indignant with Reverend Franklin Graham, head of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. Invited on "Morning Joe" last Tuesday to discuss Christian persecution, Graham was asked whether he thought President Barack Obama was Christian or not. Although Graham concluded that Obama "has said he is a Christian, so I just have to assume that he is," he appeared skeptical, suggesting Obama's policies disagreed with Christian principles, thus earning the full ire of much of the fourth estate.

Graham, however, was absolutely right to say that, "under Islamic law, the Muslim world sees Barack Obama as a Muslim, as a son of Islam": according to Sharia law [Islamic religious law, which regulates all parts of a Muslim's life], if one's father is Muslim, one automatically becomes Muslim. The reason behind last week's church attack in Egypt, when thousands of Muslims tried to torch a church and kill its pastor, is that a Christian girl fled from her father after he converted to Islam: she did not want to be Muslim, and was rumored to be hiding in the church. This is not the first time in recent months that churches have been attacked on similar rumors.

In short, Sharia law's position is that anyone born to a Muslim father is a Muslim-with the death penalty should they seek to apostatize: the 34-year-old Iranian pastor sentenced to death simply for converting to Christianity is just the most visible example.

President Obama's 2013 Budget Delivers Tax Hikes, More Spending, More Debt

The President's 2013 budget, released on February 13, repeats the stale and unsuccessful policies of the past three years. The Administration's apparent vision is one of bigger government, more spending, higher taxes, and deeper deficits. At a time when runaway spending and swelling deficits must be reversed, President Obama increases both. Moreover, he neglects to deal with the biggest drivers of spending and debt: the entitlement programs. In his first post-debt-ceiling budget, President Obama appears to have offered an election-year campaign document, not a credible blueprint for addressing the nation's fiscal and economic problems. Heritage Foundation experts analyzed the President's FY 2013 budget, offering their insights on a wide range of policy issues in an "immediate-reaction roundup" blog. This Backgrounder is a compilation of their contributions.

Andrew Breitbart, Republican Jewish media mogul, is dead at 43 [VIDEO]

Posted by Jonah Lowenfeld

Andrew Breitbart, a Republican media mogul from Los Angeles has died. He reportedly collapsed while walking near his home in Brentwood shortly after midnight early Thursday morning. He died, of natural causes, in the hospital. He was 43 years old.

Breitbart, who once proudly called himself a "biased journalist," worked at the Drudge Report and the Huffington Post before starting his own family of conservative web-based media outlets. He is best known for publishing the damning photographs in 2011 that forced Anthony Weiner, then a Democratic congressman from New York, to resign.

Is this still America?

Control freaks assault the land of the free

By Dr. Milton R. Wolf

The Washington Times

Monday, February 27, 2012

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction," warned the late President Reagan. It's probably a good thing the Gipper hasn't been forced to witness what the current generation of authoritarian rulers has done to the land of the free and home of the brave.

Public schools in San Antonio have installed video cameras, not to monitor for foul play or intruders, but to spy on kids' eating habits. Federal food police in North Carolina have begun confiscating preschoolers' homemade lunches because they didn't meet U.S. Department of Agriculture guidelines. Aghast parents have noted that one 4-year-old's confiscated lunch of a turkey and cheese sandwich, banana, potato chips and apple juice sounds more nutritious than the state-provided chicken nuggets. But that entirely misses the point. In America, parents are free to give their kids pizza and pudding with Twinkies and Twizzlers, and the government has no right to intrude.

Under the sweeping powers of Obamacare, the state has forced Catholic institutions to choose between their God and their government by demanding that they violate their own beliefs and provide birth control to their employees. Their insulting rationalization? Most Catholic women are bad Catholics and don't follow the teachings of the church anyway. What's more, the government has deified itself to determine which organizations are Catholic enough to be exempt. What's next, mandated pork-chop night at the synagogues? Bacon should be a right.

Brace yourself; I'm just getting warmed up.

Armed federal agents of the Department of Education conducted a pre-dawn SWAT-style raid on the home of a Stockton, Calif., man. Read that again: The Department of Education has taken up arms against the citizenry. Meanwhile, federal Transportation Security Administration officials routinely grope our 6-year-olds and conveniently arrange that attractive women are subjected to their full-body porn cameras. Not even George Orwell's 1984 dystopian police state went that far.

So the same federal government that waved the white flag in southern Arizona by posting signs warning American citizens to avoid American soil - effectively surrendering an 80-mile swath of our border to Mexican drug cartels - at least has the wherewithal to secure your child's private parts.

But the heavy-handed authoritarians aren't finished harassing your kids yet. Police officers in Midway, Ga., closed down three girls' front-yard lemonade stand. Why? "We were not aware of how the lemonade was made, who made the lemonade, of what the lemonade was made with, so we acted accordingly by city ordinance." Well, at least the enterprise-crushing control freaks can't be accused of age discrimination.

Fortunately, the feds are concentrating on the most ominous threats against Americans: fresh dairy milk and the ruthless Amish farmers who push their addictive contraband. "I can't believe in 2012 the federal government is raiding Amish farmers at gunpoint, all over a basic human right to eat natural food," said one milk addict. Believe it.

Back to the Golden State. Los Angeles County control freaks made a quick about-face after declaring that throwing a football or a Frisbee on the beach would result in a $1,000 fine. So would digging a hole in the sand. Quick - confiscate those plastic pails! Control freaks in the California Legislature, you may recall, recently attempted to mandate the use of government-controlled thermostats in homes and businesses. Why not? President Obama, the control freak in chief, once decreed: "We can't drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times." Well, not with Democrats in charge, anyway.

Power-grabbing Democrats always promise if we give them the power to control our lives, they will use it only in times of emergency. Of course, emergencies are in the eye of the beholder, and dictatorial power for control-freak Democrats is like whiskey was for 20th-century comedian W.C. Fields: "Always carry a flagon of whiskey in case of snakebite and furthermore, always carry a small snake." Democrats will make sure there's a snakebite soon enough.

Our land of the free is under assault by control freaks, most of whom call themselves "pro-choice" but simply don't trust you to choose your own light bulbs, salt intake or home thermostat settings. They even want to regulate how much methane gas your cow can expel. One wishes politicians were as concerned with debt reduction as bovine flatus.

Reagan warned of freedom lost: "We didn't pass it on to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States, where men were free."

Regime in panic over possible demise of ObamaCare in Supreme Court

Mar 01, 2012 05:13 am | Coach Collins

by Doug Book,  staff writer

Though Nancy Pelosi responded with a glib "Are you serious" to a reporter's question about the Constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act shortly after the measure's passage, her leftist comrades in the Department of Justice are not being dismissive of the issue any more.

In August, the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled unconstitutional the "minimum coverage provision" or individual mandate which requires everyone purchase Obama-approved health insurance and penalizes those who do not.  Judges Frank Hull and Joel Dubina of the 11th Circuit ruled that such an arrangement exceeds the power of Congress to regulate "commerce among the several states," in this particular instance, commerce being the sale and purchase of insurance.

Obama's legal brain trust had perhaps hoped the powers of Congress under the Constitution's Commerce Clause would be enough to safely see ObamaCare through a flock of waiting appeals and into full operation. But Judges Hull ... Continue Reading:Regime in panic over possible demise of ObamaCare in Supreme Court

American Minute Feb. 29

Feb 29, 2012 05:13 pm | Coach Collins

By Bill Federer, staff writer

FEBRUARY 29 is Leap Day.

In 45 B.C., Julius Caesar replaced the calendars used throughout the Roman Empire based on the moon's cycles with a calendar based on the sun, having 365 days and a "leap" day every 4th year.
It was modified by Pope Gregory XIII in 1582 to omit leap days in years divisible by 100 but not divisible by 400.
This was done to keep the date Easter after the Spring Equinox and near the Jewish Feasts of Passover, Unleaven Bread and First Fruits. Protestant Europe did not adopt theGregorian reform till the 1700s.
England and its colonies waited till 1752, but by that time the calendar trailed the seasons by 11 days.
When America finally adjusted its calendar and the day after September 2 became September 14, there were reports of riots.
Another interesting event occurred on this day during Christopher Columbus' last ... Continue Reading:American Minute Feb. 29

Obama's "defeat train" picking up speed as it heads toward a cliff

Feb 29, 2012 01:13 pm | Coach Collins

By Kevin "Coach" Collins

 Since Friday Barack Obama's chances of reelection have dimmed considerably.

 The recent hits "Hope and Change Part II" has taken are not small and will cause even "true believers" to take heed.

Friday Democracy Corps told Obama and his advisors they should stop telling people the economy is either getting better or has actually fully recovered as some wild eyed liars have been saying. In very strong language Stan Greenberg the DC pollster said even the weakest Republican message on the economy gets a markedly better response from voters than any variation of Obama's "America is back" theme. 

  Yesterday a little reported Pew research survey revealed that Catholic voters are running away from Obama in large numbers. It noted that while Catholics in general had supported Democrats 53/37 in 2008 that advantage is now down to just 48/43, but more telling is that church going Catholics who favored John McCain 50/49 ...

Dying to be Green

Some 8,000 people die in the UK every year due to what is being called "Fuel Poverty", or more simply when it costs too much to heat your home. Naturally the left is already on the case, staging "Die-Ins" outside energy companies and demanding that carbon credits be used to make homes "super-energy efficient".

 

Left out of the equation is that rising fuel prices can in no small part be attributed to the environmental mania which is at the heart of the movement. It isn't oil and gas companies that are killing the elderly with high fuel prices, it's carbon mania and environmentalism. Energy companies are not run by saints, but they don't have an interest in making oil and gas prices out of reach of ordinary people. It's hard to sell home heat to the dead or the destitute. On the other hand environmentalists do indeed have that agenda.

When Obama's energy secretary communicates that he has no interest in lowering the price of gasoline, instead focusing on energy efficiency and clean energy, he's following the same inhumane line which has made it so expensive to drive a car or heat a home in Europe.

Talk of using carbon credits for "super-energy efficiency" is an admission that a movement using dead seniors as a prop is actually pushing to make energy use as expensive as possible and to reduce it as much as possible. The "Die In" crowd isn't for lowering energy prices, it's for adding more taxes that will benefit energy efficiency and clean energy experts.

Say what you will about energy companies but their business plan generally involves getting a product to market. The energy plan on the government side is to make energy more expensive and keep as much of it off the market as possible. The costs of their policies are not just a talking point, they are a grim reality.

The family that has to choose between feeding their children or being able to afford to drive to work or heat their home is not a talking point, they are the new Kulaks, the victims of ideological government policy that has no problem with watching people die so long as it gets its way.

COUNTDOWN TO VICTORY: 250 DAYS TO THE 2012 ELECTIONS


Goodbye, Andrew

Conservatives are mourning the unexpected passing of journalist Andrew Breitbart. I had the pleasure of speaking at a pro-life event with Andrew at CPAC. For many, Breitbart was a hero for the uncompromising way in which he fought back against the left-wing bias of the liberal media establishment. And, of course, Breitbart famously brought down Rep. Anthony Weiner, who repeatedly lied about his Twitter "malfunction."

According to his website, biggovernment.com, Breitbart recently published a new conclusion to his latest book, Righteous Indignation, which summed up his life well:

"I love my job. I love fighting for what I believe in. I love having fun while doing it. I love reporting stories that the Complex refuses to report. I love fighting back, I love finding allies, and -- famously -- I enjoy making enemies."

Obama refuses to declare Iraq war victory

President Obama continues his string of foreign policy gaffes, this time acting a bit embarrassed when asked if the Iraq war was a victory.

Why does Obama seem to be so indifferent and sometimes outright hostile (he also wants to reduce health benefits for those in the military) to our troops? Glenn has more.
