Iran, Hezbollah establish training base in Nicaragua
Trainees reportedly planning retaliatory attacks against US, Israeli targets in event of military strike on Iran
By Philip Podolsky September 6, 2012
Iran has established a training base in northern Nicaragua near the border with Honduras that is used by Hezbollah, Israel Radio reported Thursday.
Approximately 30 members of the terrorist organization reside inside the area, which is closed to locals. The Hezbollah men reportedly receive all their supplies from Tehran.
Sources estimate that the trainees are preparing for retaliatory attacks against US and Israeli targets in the event of a military strike on Iran's nuclear facilities, the radio report said.
The base also serves as a meeting point with organized crime and drug cartels for money laundering and weapons smuggling. Earlier this year, reports indicated Iran and Hezbollah's involvement in drug trafficking and other illegal activities in South America, through Iran's bases in Nicaragua and Venezuela.
According to the report, Foreign Minister of Costa Rica José Enrique Castillo warned of Iran's growing influence in Nicaragua and the resulting dangers to Latin America.

Fact-Checking Bill Clinton
by Dana Loesch 5 Sep 2012
Bill Clinton was off his game tonight in one of the longest nomination speeches in the history of humankind.
The former president began his DNC speech mocking the the very idea of self empowerment and individual success. After seeming to imply that he could work better with compromise than the man he was nominating, he launched into his trademark rhetoric:
In Tampa, we heard a lot of talk about how the President and the Democrats don't believe in free enterprise and individual initiative, how we want everyone to be dependent on the government, how bad we are for the economy. [...] We Democrats think the country works better with a strong middle class, real opportunities for poor people to work their way into it and a relentless focus on the future, with business and government working together to promote growth and broadly shared prosperity. We think "we're all in this together" is a better philosophy than "you're on your own."
Unfortunately for Clinton, the facts work against him. Under Barack Obama, more people than ever before have been reduced to government dependency. Offering meager entitlements in exchange for a chunk of self sovereignty is not only bad for the economy, it's antithetical to the spirit with which America was founded.

New Campaign launched by former CIA, Special Operations Members to combat leaks and politicization of National Security Info
Kicks Off Nationwide With Release Of Documentary Short Film Titled "Dishonorable Disclosures"
OPSEC Website: http://www.opsecteam.org/
Former CIA and Special Operations members are announcing the creation of OPSEC, a new nationwide public campaign to combat the spike in leaks and politicization of Intelligence and Special Operations missions that threaten their effectiveness and the safety of Americans who conduct them. OPSEC - short for Operational Security, meaning to eliminate or reduce the exploitation of critical information - will begin with the release of "Dishonorable Disclosures," a new documentary short film highlighting the problem from the perspective of those who have served in these critical positions. The film will also serve as the basis for a TV and online advertising effort.

"Intelligence and Special Operations members are angry and frustrated at how our work has been used for political advantage by officials across government, including President Obama himself who bears special responsibility as Commander in Chief," said Scott Taylor, chairman of OPSEC and a former Navy SEAL. "We want the American people to understand the cost of these leaks and politicization both on those who serve and on our national security and to hold those in positions of leadership accountable if it doesn't stop."
OPSEC is made up of individuals who served their country in the CIA, and Special Operations Forces (SOF) consisting of Navy SEALs, Army Special Forces, Marine Corps and Air Force Special Operations. It is organized as a 501(c)(4) nonpartisan public education campaign and is independent of any political party or campaign organization.
The campaign will begin with the release of "Dishonorable Disclosures," a documentary short film that views the impact of the increasing number of leaks on Intelligence and Special Operations missions, tradecraft, tactics and capabilities from the perspective of those who have relied on these tools to carryout similar missions and protect themselves and those they served alongside. The film will be shown at events in key states across the country over the next several months, including Virginia, Florida, Ohio, Colorado, North Carolina and Nevada. "Dishonorable Disclosures" can be seen here.
"Countless leaks, interviews and decisions by the Obama Administration and other government officials have undermined the success of our Intelligence and Special Operations forces and put future missions and personnel at risk," said Fred Rustmann, an OPSEC member and 24-year veteran of the Central Intelligence Agency. "OPSEC will carry a strong message across the country that it's time for President Obama and other administration officials to stop jeopardizing national security operations for political gain."
More information about OPSEC and news about the release of "Dishonorable Disclosures" can be found at http://www.opsecteam.org/.
 | Dishonorable Disclosures |
Former Special Ops officers from four separate branches of the military have joined ranks for one specific purpose - to remove Barack Obama from office.
And now they need your help to do it.
Dear Fellow American,
During World War II, they had a poster up in every defense plant and military base in America.
It didn't mince words; it told it straight --
"Loose lips sink ships."
Well, now our nation is saddled with a Commander in Chief who just doesn't seem to get that message. Or, if he does, he simply doesn't care.
Let me lay it on the line: Barack Obama's loose lips are doing worse than sinking ships - they're putting our entire nation at risk.
And if you and I don't get this man out of office, he's going to destroy our military, undermine every ally we have, and arm our enemies to the teeth.
All for his own sorry political purposes.
That's why I am asking you to join me now in helping the Special Operations Speaks (SOS) PAC launch a nationwide campaign to remove Barack Obama from office. Before it's too late.
Demand Congress Hold the Obama 'Leakers' Accountable http://specialoperationsspeaks.com/petition/petition-ptec
PS: Like most Navy officers, the date of June 15, 1985, is seared in my memory. That's the date Islamic terrorists hijacked TWA Flight 847 and brutally tortured Navy Seabee Robert Stethem to death. All he had to do was scream out for mercy, and he would have been allowed to live. But he refused to utter a sound. The pilot of Flight 847 later said, "He was the bravest man I've ever seen in my life." Bob Stethem's brother was a Navy SEAL; I know him. So, I know something of the stuff of which he was made. Warriors like him don't scream out, they don't beg for mercy, and they don't ask for help. And that's why my fellow former Special Operations officers and I are asking for your help on their behalf today. In 2008, when he was running for president, Barack Obama promised his leftwing supporters that if they helped him get elected, "I will slow the development of future combat systems." That's one of the only campaign promises he has kept. And it has placed our brave warriors in harm's way. Your gift of $25, $50, $100 - even $1,000 or more if you can possibly spare it - will help our Special Operations Speaks PAC bring an end to Barack Obama's war on the military. So, I urge you, please give as generously as you can. |
Please give your attention to this important announcement from the Senate Conservatives Fund. From time to time, we send you content on behalf of third parties we believe may be of interest to you and we believe this one deserves your attention.
Fellow Conservatives:
If you want to stop the massive growth of our federal government and save America's future, we must change the United States Senate.
Harry Reid and the Democrats control the Senate today and, unfortunately, we still have too many Republicans who lack the courage to fight for our nation's founding principles.
As a Senator who works each day to stop the massive spending, bailouts, and debt that are destroying our country, I can tell you that we desperately need conservative reinforcements.
This is why I founded the Senate Conservatives Fund back in 2008 and it's why SCF is working so hard today to elect a new group of leaders in 2012 who will fight to turn this country around.
Will you help change the Senate? The Senate Conservatives Fund has endorsed eight conservative candidates who will help strip Harry Reid of control of the Senate and fight the liberal policies that are bankrupting our country.
 | Josh Mandel Ohio |
 | Jeff Flake Arizona |
 | Richard Mourdock Indiana |
 | Ted Cruz Texas |
 | Deb Fischer Nebraska |
 | George Allen Virginia |
 | Tom Smith Pennsylvania |
 | Dan Bongino Maryland |
These eight candidates are unique in that they have conservative records, have earned support from the grassroots in their states, and have the courage to stand up for our values -- even if it means going against their own party's leadership.
These candidates support all of SCF's policy goals, including:
- Cutting spending to balance the budget
- Repealing Obamacare entirely
- Securing the borders and oppose amnesty
- Stopping corporate bailouts
- Banning earmarks
- Establishing term limits
- Defending the 2nd Amendment
- Protecting human life
The Senate Conservatives Fund is doing two important things to help its endorsed candidates win in November.
First, SCF is raising money for each of the candidates from donors all across the nation. Money alone does not win elections, but the lack of money can certainly lose them.
Second, SCF is running powerful TV and radio ads to counter the opposition and drive home our side's message of economic freedom and prosperity. So if you want to do something really meaningful and effective to save our country, please support the Senate Conservatives Fund and its endorsed candidates TODAY.
Help Change the Senate ... SCF makes it possible for you to donate directly to its eight endorsed candidates so they receive 100% of your donations. This is a very unique approach for a third-party group and it shows exactly how committed SCF is to helping these candidates. It's also why the POLITICO newspaper called SCF a "wildly successful small-donor fundraising machine." These are exceptional candidates who have overcome long odds to get this far, and now they urgently need your help to win in November. Time is running out and we must work together to send true conservative leaders to Washington this year. Thank you for doing what you can to help turn this country around. Sincerely, Jim DeMint United States Senator P.S. If we're going to save America, we must fire Harry Reid and change the United States Senate. Without a conservative Senate, we'll never stop the massive spending, bailouts, and debt that are destroying this great country.

Sept. 11, 2012: Come to Pamela Geller's Free Speech SION event at the UN Plaza in New York City
If you're anywhere near New York on 9/11, check out this invitation to attend Pamela Geller's FREE SPEECH event
SION to Hold International Congress and Media Workshop to Address Islamic Supremacist War Against Free Speech
The world's leading forces for freedom will be there. There is a suggested contribution of $36 per person. Register now, space is limited. September 11, 2012, UN Plaza Millenium Hotel, 3:00 pm - 7:00 pm.
Email: PamelaGeller@gmail.com to register.
NEW YORK: The first session of the International Freedom Defense Congress, the operating body of the human rights organization Stop Islamization of Nations (SION), will be held in New York on September 11, 2012. The principal focus of the Congress will be a media workshop pertaining to Islamic supremacist attempts to restrict the freedom of speech in the free world, and the smear campaigns against freedom fighters in newspapers and media institutions in the West.
"The objective of this first-of-its-kind workshop is to develop media-related mechanisms to address the smear campaigns," SION said in a statement. It will also address the media's double standard regarding Islam and other religions, as epitomized in March 2012 by the New York Times' running of an anti-Catholic smear ad and rejection of a SION ad telling the truth about Islamic jihad.
It said the workshop will discuss at length the reasons behind and the results of the Western media's offensive campaigns against freedom of speech and the truth about Islam, jihad, Islamic supremacism and Muslims, which it added still occur from time to time.
"The workshop will represent a quantum leap in media action, as it discusses, beyond rhetoric, the practical steps to address the phenomenon of the Islamic war against free speech," SION President Pamela Geller said. Fighting Back in the War on Free Speech Pamela Geller, March 18, 2012
Freedom fighters from all over the globe, journalists, intellectuals and academicians will be among the participants in the workshop, which will consist of brainstorming sessions to develop mechanisms for cooperation with external partners, and to develop an action plan to address the phenomenon of the Islamic war against free speech.
The organization noted that the workshop is of particular importance as it is the first ever to address the implications of Resolution 16/18 of the United Nations Human Rights Council, the stated goal of which is to "combat intolerance, negative stereotyping and stigmatisation of, discrimination, incitement to violence, and violence against persons based on religion or belief," but which is actually designed to restrict truthful speech about Islamic supremacism and jihad, so as to render the West mute and defenseless before the advancing threat of jihad and Sharia.
Resolution 16/18, which was adopted by the United Nations Human Rights Council in Geneva in March 2011, was backed by U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton at the most recent Istanbul Process Conference in Washington in December.
This is widely viewed as a significant step toward furthering OIC efforts to destroy the freedom of speech and impose Sharia blasphemy laws on the free world.
"We are holding this Congress on the eleventh anniversary of the day jihad came to America in order to strike a blow for freedom," Geller said.
SION President Geller is the author of Stop Islamization of America: A Practical Guide to the Resistance (WND Books) and The Post-American Presidency: The Obama Administration's War On America (Simon & Schuster). SION Vice President is the acclaimed author and Islam expert, Robert Spencer, author of the New York Times bestsellers, The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam (and the Crusades) and The Truth About Muhammad (both Regnery).
The SION Board of Advisers also includes Oskar Freysinger, a Swiss Parliamentarian and member of the Swiss People's Party (SVP), who won international renown for his leadership of the successful campaign against the construction of minarets in Switzerland; Cliff Kincaid, editor of Accuracy in Media (AIM) and a leader of the struggle to keep the jihadist propaganda network Al-Jazeera off American airwaves; Dr. Ashraf Rameleh, President of Voice of the Copts, an international organization standing up for the human rights of Coptic Christians and all religious minorities against religious bigotry and intolerance; Dr. Ali Sina, the renowned ex-Muslim author and founder of FaithFreedom.org; Dr. Wafa Sultan, the ex-Muslim human rights activist and author; the German pro-freedom activist Stefan Herre of Politically Incorrect; the Israeli author Dr. Mordechai Kedar; the Hindu human rights activist Babu Suseelan; Anders Gravers of Stop Islamisation of Europe (SIOE); and Canadian publisher and free speech defender Ezra Levant.
Speakers at SION's International Freedom Defense Congress will include Kedar, Rameleh, Sina, Kincaid, and Gravers, as well as Danish free speech advocate Lars Hedegaard; Italian human rights activists Magdi Christiano Allam and Valentina Colombo; English politician and freedom fighter Paul Weston; and renowned Muhammad cartoonist Lars Vilks. More speakers will be announced shortly.
SION stands for:
-- The freedom of speech - as opposed to Islamic prohibitions of
"blasphemy" and "slander," which are used effectively to quash
honest discussion of jihad and Islamic supremacism;
-- The freedom of conscience - as opposed to the Islamic death
penalty for apostasy;
-- The equality of rights of all people before the law - as
opposed to Sharia's institutionalized discrimination against
women and non-Muslims.

And this change to a conservative majority in Montgomery County is REAL. We have need of 130 volunteers to take part in this door-knocking effort for eight consecutive Saturdays to swing these 83 precincts. Why We Win In past elections held in Pennsylvania, the proof is in election results - so goes the Southeast, so goes Pennsylvania. And over the past 20 years of elections, Southeast counties; Philadelphia, Montgomery, Chester and Delaware have all gone Blue and Bucks county to Purple. However, in this 2012 election, we will win back Montgomery County for the conservative right. Why is our confidence high? Is it because of our organized, planned door-to door strategy? Yes. Is it our door-knocking plan - specific to targeting registered Independents in 83 swing precincts? Yes. How We Win In these swing precincts in the progressive parts of Montgomery county (closest to Philadelphia, PA), passed elections were won in 83 precincts by Democrats because of 2 votes and not greater than 119 votes; with both parties breaking even throughout the 450 precincts. Our organized, planned action brings our volunteers to visit these 83 precincts (or 1/5 of all precincts) - walk to talk to registered Independents and to place issues-based literature in their hands at their doors; for no-answers, an issue-oriented door hanger is used. We are in the process of finding funding for our project.

CLICK HERE to view Brigitte's special video invitation!
It is my privilege to invite you to a special event featuring Brigitte Gabriel, Founder and President of ACT! for America. This event is free and open to the public and will be held at the following:
Chestnut Assembly of God 2554 E. Chestnut Ave. Vineland, NJ 08360 Thursday, September 27th at 7 pm

Ms. Gabriel will speak on the rise of Islamic radicalism in your community and in our nation. Her story of survival as a persecuted Christian living in a bomb shelter for 7 years will have you captivated and inspired! She will share how the events of 9/11 compelled her to start ACT! for America, the largest national security grassroots organization in the U.S. The events over the past eighteen months have been a sobering wake-up call to America. Without question, the threats radical Islam poses to America have increased. Brigitte will discuss these threats to our security and our freedoms, such as...
- The growing threat of homegrown jihad, with the number of such jihadist plots skyrocketing over the past two years.
- How terrorists are exploiting our porous southern border, often working with drug cartels.
- The increasingly militant-and successful-effort by Islamists worldwide to suppress free speech and criminalize any criticism of Islam.
- The growing Muslim Brotherhood threat and how Islamic sharia law is creeping into America.
- How the history and doctrines of Islam are being misrepresented in public school textbooks and classrooms.

For a taste of what is in store for you, check out Brigitte's speech at one of our recent events: http://www.tennessean.com/VideoNetwork/1271237687001/ACT-for-America-founder-speaks-at-anti-Shariah-conference-in-Nashville You will hear first-hand how ACT! for America is successfully rolling back the tide of radical Islam...how we are winning legislative victories...how we don't have to live in fear or resign ourselves to the inevitability of the threats arrayed against us...and how we will prevail. I encourage you to forward this email to everyone you know. They may forward it to someone they know who may not only attend, but will invite others to come! We are sending this email to our members in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Maryland because we know from prior experience, that many people are not only willing to travel to hear Brigitte speak, but are willing to bring others with them. I know those of you who have heard Brigitte will agree-you don't want to miss this! It will be an event people will be talking about for a long time to come! Invite your friends and come join us in Vineland, NJ! We look forward to seeing you on September 27th. Yours for a Safe and Free America, Guy Rodgers Executive Director

Activate: How to turn the 2012 election from a close call to a mandate
Last night, Glenn focused on the importance of commitment. He was the first to admit, a lot of last night's show was something you had heard before - but it's important to start at the beginning and to make sure you know what you believe before you get put into action. And tonight, Glenn revealed ways for you to really get moving!
Tonight, the focus of the show was "Activate" - and it was all about the election and how you can make sure that one way or another - 2012 is a year for a mandate for or against the progressives. And if you think it doesn't matter just take a look at what is happening right now in Wisconsin. Progressives and unions are doing everything they can to make sure that Walker loses. It's a microcosm to what is happening around the country, and Glenn thought it was so important that he recapped it on tonight's show (in under three minutes!):

I have some very exciting news! Citizens United Productions has just announced an all rights distribution deal for our newest film Occupy Unmasked with Magnet Releasing, the genre arm of Magnolia Pictures, owned by Mark Cuban and Todd Wagner. Magnet is giving the film a limited theatrical release with VOD in late September to be followed by the DVD release. I've attached the full press release at the bottom of this email. While the Liberal establishment and mainstream media portray the Occupy Wall Street movement as organic and nonviolent, Occupy Unmasked reveals the sinister, organized, and highly orchestrated nature of its leaders and their number one goal: Not just to change government, but to destroy it. Led by hugely influential conservative visionary, the late Andrew Breitbart, Occupy Unmasked delves deep beneath the surface of the Occupy movement to show its dark anarchist roots. Behind the largely naïve students and legitimately concerned citizens looking for answers stand those who advocate the use of violence, black bloc operations, and intimidation as protest tactics - the same tactics they used during the anti-war protests of the 1960's, anti-nuclear weapons protests of the 80's, WTO protests of the 90's, and the IMF protests of recent years. Former leftists turned patriotic citizen journalists Brandon Darby, David Horowitz, Pam Keys, Anita MonCrief, Mandy Nagy, Lee Stranahan, and others take viewers into the Occupy camps around the country to see first-hand the truth of what is happening and who is at the heart of the movement. Exclusive footage and eyewitness accounts tell the story of the criminal activity and raw brutality in the camps - much of which has not been reported by the mainstream media. Directed by Stephen K. Bannon (The Undefeated, Generation Zero), Occupy Unmasked is an eye-opening look at a startling movement that could have a dangerous impact on the future of America. CLICK HERE TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THIS EXPLOSIVE FILM! Sincerely, David N. BossiePresident of Citizens United Executive Producer of Occupy Unmasked P.S. We continue to take pre-orders so be the first to own Occupy Unmasked on DVD by purchasing TODAY!
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Magnet Releasing to Distribute Andrew Breitbart Doc OCCUPY UNMASKED New York, August 6, 2012 - The Wagner/Cuban Company's Magnet Releasing announced today an all rights distribution deal for Citizens United Productions' documentary OCCUPY UNMASKED, one of the last projects featuring the late conservative icon Andrew Breitbart. OCCUPY UNMASKED was written and directed by award-winning director Stephen K. Bannon and produced by David N. Bossie. Magnet is giving the film a limited theatrical release day and date with VOD in late September. "This film is controversial, and that's exactly the reason we want to ensure it can find its audience prior to the November elections," said Mark Cuban, co-owner of Magnet. "I look forward to our partnership with Citizens United Productions and to getting this film out to the masses." OCCUPY UNMASKED takes viewers into the Occupy Wall Street camps around the country in New York, Los Angeles, Washington, D.C., Portland, Denver and Oakland for an up-close look at what's happened there and who's at the heart of the movement, documenting criminal activity and raw brutality in the camps - much of which has not been reported by the mainstream media. In addition to Andrew Breitbart, the film features journalists Brandon Darby, David Horowitz, Pam Keys, Anita MonCrief, Mandy Nagy, and Lee Stranahan. "I am proud to announce that Citizens United Productions is teaming up with Mark Cuban and Magnet to distribute OCCUPY UNMASKED, and elevate the film the Left does not want the American people to see," said Producer David N. Bossie. "This distribution deal will keep the groundbreaking work of the late conservative icon Andrew Breitbart alive for years to come." "As a dear friend of Andrew's, I could not be more thrilled that this deal got completed and all Americans will have an opportunity to see one of Andrew Breitbart's final pieces of work," said writer/director Stephen K. Bannon. "This film is important because it sheds new light on the myth of the Occupy Wall Street movement. I know audiences across the country will be startled by what we uncovered in this explosive documentary." |

When you think of the great presidential debates throughout history, there's Lincoln and Douglas in 1858, Kennedy and Nixon in 1960, and then there is Glenn's new live comedy stage show, Unelectable 2012. Since Glenn couldn't personally visit every city in America on his Unelectable 2012 tour, he has decided that the final show will be simulcast LIVE in movie theaters all over the country, probably one in your town! Watch Glenn drown in his own sweat while you relax in air conditioning, eating nachos and Milk Duds. This is an amazingly funny show, the kind of presidential debate that you'll never actually see because Glenn plays a candidate who tells the truth! Joined by the writers and performers of GBTV's sketch comedy show, The B.S. of A., many are saying it could be the funniest show Glenn's ever done, and it ends with an inspiring message that will have you on your feet full of hope. It's a night of fun the whole family can enjoy! With the election season we've got in front of us, this may be the only "funny-on-purpose" thing related to politics for years to come.

WHAT IS THE ROLE OF THE PEOPLE?
"In the United States, government requires not merely the consent of the governed. It rests ultimately on the ability of the people to govern themselves."
As the presidential election approaches, the choices before our nation have never been more critical. The final volume in the Understanding America series, What is the Role of the People?
, examines the great responsibility the Founders bestowed upon us, the American people.
The Founders built the United States on the fundamental principle that we have the right to govern ourselves. To govern effectively, we must ensure our society's continued virtue and freedom, and pass the inheritance of freedom on to each new generation.
Authored by Heritage Foundation President Edwin Feulner, this final volume in the
Understanding Americaseries explores how and why we must live up to our responsibilities in maintaining the Founders' vision. Learn more in What is the Role of the People?
For the full Understanding America series, visit heritage.org/UnderstandingAmerica. Don't miss these volumes:
What Is America's Role In the World? The United States' foreign policy exists, first and foremost, to defend the independence and interests of its people. But America also has a unique responsibility to uphold and advance the universal principles of liberty upon which it was founded. This volume provides insight into how the Founders' understanding of liberty shaped their vision for foreign policy. Read More
How Must America Practice Diplomacy? This volume in the Understanding America series examines how the principles of liberty that define America must also guide its practice of diplomacy. Read More
How Must America Balance Security and Liberty? America's Founders recognized that the nation's security and its peoples' liberty are not opposed. Rather, security is necessary for the flourishing of liberty. Since its founding, America has promoted security and protected liberty by pursuing policies that strengthen both. This volume in the Understanding America series explores the ways in which the Constitution's Framers sought to protect liberty, and shows that the goals of ensuring security and respecting liberty can and must be reconciled.

The Great Betrayal: Obama's Wars and the War in Iraq
Jul 18th, 2012
Daniel Greenfield's new Freedom Center pamphlet, The Great Betrayal: Obama's Wars and the War in Iraq, is an effort to understand the politics of the "war on terror" which has now reached a final punctuation point with the U.S. decision to speed its withdrawal from the battlefields of Iraq and Afghanistan (where success was once deemed so crucial to national security), and to practice an incoherent form of regime change in Libya while ignoring more serious threats in Syria and Iran.
The war on terror began, Greenfield shows, as an admirable bipartisan commitment soon after the tragedy of 9/11-an effort to transcend party lines not only to punish those who attacked our country but also to interrupt planning for further attacks and try to stop the international spread of the Islamic jihad behind the attacks. But the Democratic Party, with the honorable exception of a few individuals like Richard Gephardt and Joe Lieberman, turned its back on a war soon after authorizing it, and did so at a time when American troops were facing hostile enemy fire.
Although Senate Democrats on the intelligence oversight committee had been granted access to every piece of data available to the White House, they now accused President Bush of tricking them to secure their approval. In fact, their own about-face was entirely dictated by political considerations when a Sixties antiwar activist, Howard Dean, surged ahead in the Democratic primary polls and it appeared for a moment that Americans were on the side of retreat and capitulation.
Although regime change in Iraq had been official U.S. policy since Bill Clinton signed the Iraq Liberation Act of 1998, Democratic senators such as John Kerry who only months earlier had supported the war effort now launched demoralizing attacks on the American commander-in-chief and his troops in the field, stigmatizing it as "the wrong war in the wrong place at the wrong time." If the truth was the first casualty of their war against the Bush administration, the second casualty was the principle of bi-partisanship that had guided foreign policy debates throughout the Cold War, the principle that "politics stops at the water's edge." Now partisan politics trumped security.
The unrestrained attacks on the Iraq War as illegal and unjustified went largely unanswered by Republicans who failed to call the Democratic saboteurs of the nation's war effort to account or to decry the risk their cynical attacks posed to American servicemen and women on the battlefield. As Greenfield demonstrates, the Democrats' partisanship had consequences not only in Iraq but elsewhere in the region: the paralysis that resulted from their "anti-war" campaign led straight to the destruction of Lebanon and the installation of a terrorist army, Hezbollah, there as a regime within a regime. And it emboldened an overtly Islamofascist regime in Iran not only to supply the IEDs responsible for most of our troop fatalities in Iraq but also to proceed with a nuclear program aimed directly at Israel and the West.
The Great Betrayal shows that Barack Obama's abandonment of Iraq is a betrayal of all the Americans and Iraqis who gave their lives to establish freedom in that country. And the result of his policies in Afghanistan has been as disastrous. While the President presented his rationale for pursuing war there as the pursuit of al-Qaeda, after abandoning his "surge" (which resulted in two thirds of all America's Afghan casualties there and the resurgence of the Taliban allies of al-Qaeda), he blithely prepared for withdrawal as if national objectives had been met.

"Losing our Sons": Documentary looks at domestic Islamic radicalization and jihadization
Charles Jacobs at Americans for Peace and Tolerance announced today the release of a trailer for their upcoming documentary, "Losing Our Sons", featuring Melvin Bledsoe - father of domestic terrorist Carlos Bledsoe aka Abdulhakim Mohamed who gunned down US Army recruiter Pvt. William Long at an Army-Navy recruiting center in Little Rock, Arkansas in June 2009. Melvin Bledsoe testified at the House Homeland Security Committee hearing earlier this month.
The upcoming documentary discusses how Bledsoe was radicalized by the Muslim Student Association in Tennessee and sent to terrorist training in Yemen with the written recommendation of the imam of a Nashville mosque. It also discusses how the agents of radicalization in the Nashville Muslim community have been aided by collaborators in the establishment media, politics and the so-called "interfaith" community.

"BETTER THAN EVER"
(all times are eastern)
Friday 10-11pm "Veterans' Weekly Forum" - Rich Davis and David Bellavia

Pennsylvania Republican Senate candidate Tom Smith visited Philadelphia Wednesday to propose an economic recovery plan cantered on tax cuts and less regulation.
Smith trails incumbent Democrat U.S. Sen. Bob Casey in polls and money, though he's rich enough to put millions into his own campaign. About 85 percent of the roughly $8 million Smith's campaign has raised has come from his own loans and contributions.
At a news conference at the Crown Plaza Hotel on City Line Avenue, Smith said his conservative views are rooted in his experience. He grew up on a farm, became a coal miner, a coal company owner, and eventually a wealthy businessman.
He said his prescription for the economy is based on the simple premise that it's the private sector that creates jobs.
"Our economy is sick because over regulating, overspending, overtaxing big government is toxic to the American dream," Smith said.
Smith proposes big cuts in federal spending, and a tax reform that closes most loopholes and imposes a flat tax -- a single as-yet undetermined rate for all taxpayers. Smith said he would exempt the poorest Americans from the tax, but couldn't say what income level might qualify.
He said he also wants far less government regulation. He was asked if that meant he'd leave Wall Street investment bankers to do as they please. "Oh, absolutely not, I'm not proposing no regulations whatsoever," Smith said. "What I'm proposing and what this country and what business needs is reasonable regulations." Smith says he does favor repealing the Dodd-Frank law regulating the financial industry.

Hillsdale's New FREE Online Course: The Progressive Rejection of the Founding and the Rise of Bureaucratic Despotism
Available to you, your family, your friends, and all Americans. Begins September 4, 2012 - Sign Up TODAY! Dear Linda, In 2012 our Constitution is under assault like never before. Even as I write, self-described Progressives are working to subvert the Constitution to replace it with an ever more expansive and intrusive bureaucratic despotism. My name is Larry Arnn and I'm the President of Hillsdale College. You might have heard Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Mark Levin and other conservative radio hosts talk about Hillsdale College. The ongoing radical Progressive agenda poses a serious threat to the survival of free government in our great nation. At Hillsdale, we believe that a massive, nationwide education project to promote America's founding principles is the only way to defeat this Progressive agenda. As one of our most loyal supporters, you've been an important part of Hillsdale's effort to educate Americans on the importance of preserving our Constitution. That's why I want you to be one of the first to know about our brand new online course:
"The Progressive Rejection of the Founding and the Rise of Bureaucratic Despotism."
The first class begins on Tuesday, September 4 and the final one will occur during the week of the national elections in November. I hope you'll sign up immediately.
[Register for this new course right now.]
In this no-cost, ten-week course, you'll learn from members of Hillsdale's politics department faculty - some of the nation's top scholars on the Constitution - about the history of Progressivism and how the movement has slowly chiseled away at our freedoms over the past century. With Hillsdale's outstanding reputation as a leading academic institution, this course offers you a unique educational experience that you won't be able to get anywhere else. Earlier this year Hillsdale offered its first online course on the Constitution. And in doing so it made a major impact with more than 275,000 Americans registering for "Constitution 101: The Meaning and History of the Constitution." We expect our newest course - The Progressive Rejection of the Founding and the Rise of Bureaucratic Despotism - to attract even more attention. And I hope you will be one of the registrants! Here are the ten lecture topics for the course...

[Click here to register for our new online course: "The Progressive Rejection of the Founding and the Rise of Bureaucratic Despotism."]
Why is Hillsdale teaching a course on the Progressive movement?
Americans who believe in constitutional liberty and limited government need to understand what they're up against, so Hillsdale designed this course to teach Americans the history of Progressivism and how it continues to work to ignore and dismantle the U.S. Constitution. From its intellectual origins in the late 19th and early 20th centuries with Presidents Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson, to the massive government expansions under FDR's New Deal and LBJ's Great Society, to the third great expansion of big-government programs during the past three years, Progressives are making our country unrecognizable in comparison to the constitutional republic created by America's Founding Fathers. To understand fully this attack on limited government constitutionalism, and thus to know what is needed to stem the tide, take Hillsdale's new online Constitution course, which starts on September 4 and concludes the week of the national elections in November.
PLEASE GO HERE TO REGISTER NOW.
AND, like all Hillsdale online courses, it will be archived online so that you can refer back to the lectures or access them at your leisure. I have the privilege of delivering the first lecture, "The Founders' Constitution and the Challenge of Progressivism," and the final lecture, "Restoring Constitutional Government." 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.
[Go here to see the course's schedule and register]
I am proud, thanks to your past support and the support of many patriotic Americans, that Hillsdale College is teaching hundreds of thousands of Americans about the Constitution and its principles of liberty. This course is crucial for all Americans who want to understand the dangers confronting the Constitution and its principles today. I hope YOU will join us for this important course! As President of Hillsdale College, I have devoted my life to education, and in particular to teaching about the American founding, its underlying principles, and subsequent constitutional history. The last chapter in that history, covering the past century, tells a story about how the progressive movement has undermined the Constitution and replaced it with a bureaucratic despotism - if we are to recover the Constitution, that story must be understood. That is why we are offering this new course, free, to all Americans.
[Please go here to enroll in our new Constitution Course: "The Progressive Rejection of the Founding and the Rise of Bureaucratic Despotism" Today]
The more than 275,000 who signed up for our first constitution course last spring prove that Americans are willing and eager to study and defend the Constitution and the principles that made our country the most free and most prosperous in human history! I hope you will sign up for our new course and help continue this re-awakening of national interest in the Constitution.

"How Did Harry Reid Get Rich?" By Betsy Woodruff Originally posted August 15, 2012
"Try this thought experiment. Imagine that someone grows up in poverty, works his way through law school by holding the night shift as a Capitol Hill policeman, and spends all but two years of his career as a public servant. Now imagine that this person's current salary - and he's at the top of his game - is $193,400. You probably wouldn't expect him to have millions in stocks, bonds, and real estate."

RedState Morning Briefing
For September 7, 2012
1. A Recycled Speech of Failed Ideas and Many Straw Men
When you are in a tight race with your political opponent, you should not recycle a Jobs Act speech that failed to even persuade Democrats in Congress to pass your signature re-election initiative.
But that's what Barack Obama did. A day after Bill Clinton brought the house down, Barack Obama took to the stage and reduced, reused, and recycled old states of the union speeches that have failed him for four years.
It was boring. It was unoriginal. And it was filled with promises when he hasn't kept his past promises. Clint Eastwood's empty chair could have given a better speech than what Barack Obama offered up. And to think he wanted to give that in a stadium.
This was a safe speech you give when you have a lead. This was not a speech you give in a tight race. Don't believe me? Here are excerpts from his past States of the Union and Jobs Act speech. Lots of platitude, lots of rhetoric, little in detail, and a lot of worn out lines that have failed him before.
I'm honestly stunned he did this, particularly after Bill Clinton.
2. Barack Obama and the Rise of Ineptocracy
Bob Woodward is out with a new book, called "The Price of Politics." The first excerpts appeared today as Barack Obama prepares to accept the Democrat Party nomination for president. Woodward makes the best case possible as to why Barack Obama should be denied a second term.
As it turns out the fiasco of a vagina-based convention that denied God three times before the cock crowed - a convention that featured an adulterer and callous killer as its hero on the first night and an adulterous serial sexual predator as the hero on its second to prove just how serious they are about taking care of women - is really a fit metaphor for Obama's Administration. The DNC (or is it D&C) convention in Charlotte (bonus question: what is the airport code for Charlotte, NC) is a gathering of ineptocrats. Obama's Administration shows what happens when you put ineptocrats in charge of anything more complicated than a two-car funeral procession.
3. NLRB To Union-Busting Teamsters: Stop Harassing Organizers For Wanting Their Own Union
Union bosses who pretend they're fighters for the working class often are accused by their own employees of committing the same sins that they accuse employers of doing. Very often, when push comes to shove, union bosses become the worst kind of union busters there are-because they should know better.
4. Emails confirm Obama campaign adviser David Axelrod tried to intimidate Gallup
David Axelrod and the Obama campaign have some explaing to do.
The Daily Caller's Matthew Boyle reports that emails between senior officials at The Gallup Organization, show senior Obama campaign adviser David Axelrod attempted to intimidate the polling firm when its poll results found Mitt Romney leading President Obama.

If Al Qaeda is about to destroy New York and Los Angeles simultaneously with a selection of strategically positioned nuclear devices, like in 24 only way worse-Ms. Napolitano will describe the situation as "vibrant"-Color Code: Taupe. All of this is intended to show the Muslim world that the Obama administration will not "overreact" to terrorism the way the bad old Bush administration did.

A Reminder of just how are the racists.
With all the controversy over the Democrats removing God from their platform, not to mention the boo's when they put God back in. Here is a snippet of the Democratic Party Platform of 1860. It shows that the Democrat Party officially sponsored the perpetuation and expansion of slavery.
Democratic Party Platform of 1860
June 1860
(Breckinridge Faction)
Richmond, Virginia
Resolved, That the platform adopted by the Democratic party at Cincinnati be affirmed, with the following explanatory resolutions:
1. That the Government of a Territory organized by an act of Congress is provisional and temporary, and during its existence all citizens of the United States have an equal right to settle with their property in the Territory, without their rights, either of person or property, being destroyed or impaired by Congressional or Territorial legislation.
2. That it is the duty of the Federal Government, in all its departments, to protect, when necessary, the rights of persons and property in the Territories, and wherever else its constitutional authority extends.
3. That when the settlers in a Territory, having an adequate population, form a State Constitution, the right of sovereignty commences, and being consummated by admission into the Union, they stand on an equal footing with the people of other States, and the State thus organized ought to be admitted into the Federal Union, whether its constitution prohibits or recognizes the institution of slavery.
Resolved, That the enactments of State Legislatures to defeat the faithful execution of the Fugitive Slave Law are hostile in character, subversive of the Constitution, and revolutionary in their effect.

If a convenient time machine were to deposit a Roman citizen, circa 140 or so, in Charlotte, he would have no trouble understanding what was going on. Our Roman might not understand a word of what was being said, but he would be able to take one look at the garish costumes, the hysterical air of self-congratulation worn by men and women who have accomplished absolutely nothing in life, and the clownish theatrics and realize exactly what was going on. "Oh no, not again," would be the last thing he would think just before being lobotomized by a loose heel from Nancy Pelosi. If bankrupting the country, destroying its economy and using its legal documents to roll joints wasn't bad enough, the people responsible for all this thought it would be a fine idea to make their national convention about abortion and gay marriage. It was either that or any other random thing that will hit the right buttons on the sort of people who leave their buttons exposed to the air. The old Democratic convention looked like some music video director's idea of Olympus. The new one looks like the stage for a concert, something popular, noisy and lip-synched. Any minute now some musician who used to be a waiter two weeks ago before going professionally viral will slink out on stage and begin making mouth movements to recorded music while digital fireworks go off in the background. This is MTV politics designed by those who don't understand that MTV is over and that they're over. Their fifteen minutes are up and so are their four years. Cinderella won't marry the prince and spend another four years bankrupting the country. The trend that swept this mob into office is headed the other way and their desperate attempts to stay cool are as pathetic as they are hopeless. The Democratic National Convention is swarming with rabidly enthusiastic people who are hyped up about things in the way that only the professionally cheerful are. The message is that everyone is happy to be here, repeated at decibel volumes and with simultaneous sign language translation, which is the surest sign that no one is happy to be here at all. There's a moment in every party when no one knows anymore why they are at the party or what the point of the party is. The party is just there and they're there and they're doing their best to pretend to be having fun, but worryingly they're not sure what fun is anymore. There's just noise, balloons and lots of bright colors. Someone makes a speech and everyone applauds because it's the thing to do. And everyone stays because that's also the thing to do. That's the Convention in a nutshell.

A grudging compliment from our opposition On August 15th, the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC) held what it called on its website
|
a national town hall-style conference call on "The Real World Impact of Hate Rhetoric in America..."
|
One of the presenters on the telephone town hall was Wajahat Ali, one of the co-authors of a so-called "report" put out by the far left, George Soros-funded Center for American Progress, entitled "Fear, Inc.: The Roots of the Islamophobia Network in America." Towards the end of the hour-long call, Ali recommended eleven action items to combat what he calls "Islamophobia" in America. What he said in 23 seconds about ACT! for America was illuminating. Click here or the image below:
 | Ali: Muslims Should Copy ACT for America's Success |
We disagree with Ali's characterization that ACT! for America is an "anti-Muslim group," given our support for Muslim leaders and organizations that include people like Dr. Tawfik Hamid, Manda Ervin, and Dr. Zuhdi Jasser. But we appreciate his acknowledgment of our success! Ali's remarks echo what is contained in the "Fear, Inc." document, which devotes five pages to ACT! for America. Most of the five pages contain the typical propaganda and name-calling that groups such as CAIR and its enablers like the Center for American Progress engage in. But tucked away in those five pages are these statements:
|
But what makes Gabriel's organization unique is the sophistication with which it has applied its organizing goals. Gabriel's relationship with lawmakers is pivotal to her group's success. This dedication to cause over embracing the limelight speaks to the serious nature of ACT!.
|
When even our opponents grudgingly concede that we are successful, and why we are successful, none of us in ACT! for America should have any doubts that we are effectively pushing back against the threat of radical Islam.

Of course, the idea that taking guns away from law-abiding citizens will somehow reduce crime is patently ludicrous. A passerby at a school in San Antonio proved the opposite, in fact, when he saved a woman's life by merely [...]

DNC Platform Still Guts Pro-Israel Language
|
|
by Ben Shapiro
Despite yesterday's chaos on the floor of the Democratic National Convention in an attempt to restore Jerusalem and God to the Democratic Party 2012 platform, full pro-Israel language from the 2008 platform has not been and will not be restored. The current Democratic platform regarding Israel had a couple sentences restored yesterday:
Jerusalem is and will remain the capital of Israel. The parties have agreed that Jerusalem is a matter for final status negotiations. It should remain an undivided city accessible to people of all faiths.

Barack Obama has destroyed the Democrat brand name
Sep 06, 2012 06:13 am | Coach Collins
By Kevin "Coach" Collins
A few hours from now Barack Obama will accept his nomination to run for re-election before a wildly cheering crowd of hard core true believers. As everything else the Democrats do it will be a fraud. The people who coined the phrase "astroturfing", because the millions of TEA partiers who poured into Washington a few years ago scared them to the bone will be busing people in to make the place look full. Since we don't know where it will be "the place" is the best description of where he will speak. If as is likely they can't fill the football stadium they will move Obama's speech indoors to a place with fewer seats to fill.
On Tuesday morning, the first day of the convention, ABC radio aired an interview of a DELEGATE to the DNC who said she was unsure of what she would do in November!

By Bill Federer, staff writer
Just five days after Princess Diana was killed, Mother Teresa died SEPTEMBER 5, 1997. The daughter of an Albanian grocer, she joined an order at age 18 and began working in the slums of Calcutta. Starting the Missionaries of Charity, which care for the blind, aged, lepers, crippled, and dying, Mother Teresa stated: "I see Jesus in every human being. I say to myself, this is hungry Jesus, I must feed him. This is sick Jesus. This one has leprosy or gangrene...I serve because I love Jesus." Phyllis Schlafly wrote in The Power of the Positive Woman (NY: Arlington House Publishers, 1978): "Few women in history have ever known the career fulfillment that Mother Teresa has known. She is the Albanian nun who has made it her mission to minister to the poor and dying in Calcutta, India. The English scholar Malcolm Muggeridge, a convert to Christianity, ...

Obama's arrogance is no substitute for competent leadership
Posted: 06 Sep 2012 03:02 PM PDT
(Paul Mirengoff)
Four years ago, when Barack Obama stood in front of fake Greek columns before a massive outdoor crowd in Denver to accept his party's nomination for the office of president, millions of Americans expected him to deliver hope, change, and a brilliant presidency that would solve the nation's ills. Tonight, when he speaks to a much smaller indoor gathering in Charlotte, most of these people would settle for a competent presidency.
They haven't received that presidency so far, a point that Bob Woodward reportedly drives home in his new book "The Price of Politics." The book describes the 2011 showdown over the federal debt ceiling that nearly led to a default by the United States on its debt.

The Stark Backdrop to the Democrats' God Fiasco
Posted: 06 Sep 2012 09:25 AM PDT
(John Hinderaker)
The Democrats' serial bungling of the "God" and "Jerusalem" issues is being universally derided as an unforced error. And, of course it was. But it was not an error that occurred in a vacuum. On the contrary, these events-dropping any reference to God from the party's platform, and refusing, in effect, to identify Jerusalem with Judeo-Christian history, followed by the spectacle of a majority of delegates voting against reinstating God and Jerusalem to the platform-reflect, in a fundamental way, the nature of today's Democratic Party. It has been a truism for some years that religion is one of the chief fault lines of American politics. But consider these remarkable numbers from today's Rasmussen Reports:

Chronicles of Ineptitude, DNC Supplemental
Posted: 06 Sep 2012 08:23 AM PDT
(Steven Hayward)
This really is one of those Shatneresque "Captain's log-supplemental" moments. I had no idea when I was writing up my Chronicles of Ineptitude notice yesterday on the Fluke fluke that the DNC was exceeding even my lowest expectations in real time, with their ham-handed handling of the platform references to Jerusalem and God. It was obvious from the voice vote that there was nowhere near a two-thirds majority in favor of the motion, but convention chair Antonio Villaraigosa showed he has no grasp of Politics 101: when there's a close motion, the chair is supposed to rule firmly as the party bosses want and quickly move on. Instead he ignored Healey's First Law of Holes: if you're in one, stop digging. He had to be bailed out by a parliamentarian, who no doubt also whispered in his ear to ignore or rule out of order any motion for a roll-call vote, which was likely permissible under party rules (forcing a roll call that is). They'd have surely lost a roll-call vote on the platform language. And then lost New York, Connecticut, and Florida in November.

Thursday, September 6, 2012 To: Friends & Supporters From: Gary L. Bauer COUNTDOWN TO VICTORY: 61 DAYS TO THE 2012 ELECTIONS God Ekes Out A "Win" At Democrat Convention As we told you yesterday, the Democrats' platform is radical and hostile to Middle American values. The major media and Democrat politicians initially laughed at us for pointing out that God had been dumped from their platform. But by the end of the day, their hair was on fire as it became apparent that their moderate camouflage had been stripped away. There is no way that FDR, with his D-Day prayer, or Harry Truman, who recognized the modern state of Israel, or John F. Kennedy, with his tax cuts and willingness to stare down our enemies, would have any place in today's Democrat Party. Once it was clear the Democrats were on the verge of a major debacle, the left-wing media jumped into damage control mode. They rushed to assure us that Barack Obama had personally intervened to restore God and Jerusalem in the platform. Really? Then why didn't he intervene before last night? The Democrat platform was drafted last month in Detroit! So now we're supposed to believe that Obama really wanted Jerusalem recognized in his party's platform as the capital of Israel? Then why can't his State Department or his own White House press secretary answer the very simple question, "What is the capital of Israel?" By the way, the Democrats still fail to condemn Hamas, and they still fail to reject the Palestinian demand to swamp Israel demographically with millions of so-called refugees. We're also supposed to believe that Obama wants God back in his party's platform. But this is the same man who told Pastor Rick Warren that it was above his pay grade when Warren asked him at what point do babies deserve human rights. This is the same man who repeatedly voted to deny medical treatment to babies who survived abortions. This is the same man who twisted Scripture to justify men "marrying" other men. But I don't doubt that Obama did personally intervene yesterday. He had a four-alarm fire on his hands. The phones were likely ringing off their proverbial hooks from furious Jewish voters and black pastors who were already on edge before the convention began. No doubt they were livid as they learned that Jerusalem and God had been ripped out of the platform. So what did the Democrats do? What they do best -- they rigged a vote! Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, serving as the convention chairman, called for a two-thirds voice vote to amend the platform and reinsert the deleted language on Jerusalem and God. But it was clear God didn't have the votes. So Villaraigosa called for a second vote. Again, it was clear God didn't have the votes. So Villaraigosa called for a third vote. God still didn't have the votes, but this time the chairman overruled the delegates, many of whom booed and hissed. Let's be clear about this: They weren't objecting to language that Republicans use all the time and which is found in our Declaration of Independence -- that our liberties come from God. No, they were booing a simple reference to our "God-given talents." And, by the way, the same convention that booed God last night cheered Bill Clinton, and tonight they will cheer Barney Frank! My friends, I suspect God would have preferred to lose the vote. Why would He want to be in a platform of a party so committed to the destruction of His innocent, little unborn children? The Bottom Line: The Democrats Are The Extremists! Please don't miss the main point: At least half of the delegates pledged to Barack Obama do not believe Jerusalem is the capital of Israel. At least half of the delegates pledged to Barack Obama don't want to acknowledge God in their party's platform. What more should anyone need to know to realize that today's Democrat Party is a radical secularist party that bears little resemblance to the party that existed in recent years? Just consider the marriage issue. Their keynote speaker last night, Bill Clinton, signed the Defense of Marriage Act after it had passed the House of Representatives and the Senate by landslide, bi-partisan margins of 342-to-67 and 85-to-14. Just 16 years later, this president is refusing to enforce that law, wants it repealed and has embraced the radical notion of men "marrying" other men. And it's not just the delegates gathered in Charlotte. These folks represent many radicals who are burrowed into virtually every federal agency, who run every major union and who spin the news every night on most networks. They don't want God in the public square. They want abortion-on-demand and same-sex "marriage." But the American people do not! The Republican Party, Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan should make this assault on faith and values a constant theme, along with unemployment and deregulation. In every swing state that is up for grabs -- Colorado, Florida, Iowa, North Carolina, Ohio, Wisconsin, Virginia -- the people have voted to defend traditional marriage. Overwhelming majorities would be shocked that God lost three votes at the Democratic National Convention -- IF they know about it. And that is as much a failure of the GOP inside-the-Beltway establishment as it is media bias. NOTE: We will be transitioning to a new e-mail service in the coming days. The "End of Day" report will have a new look, and we want to make sure you don't miss it!

September 6, 2012 Marriage: The Greatest Weapon Against Childhood Poverty by Ken McIntyre
The collapse of marriage, along with a dramatic rise in births to single women, is the most important cause of childhood poverty-but government policy doesn't reflect that reality, according to a special report released yesterday by The Heritage Foundation.
Nearly three out of four poor families with children in America are headed by single parents. When a child's father is married to his mother, however, the probability of the child's living in poverty drops by 82 percent.
Senior Research Fellow Robert Rector provides a brief overview of each state with unique data and 14 charts per state, while also updating his years of related research in the special report titled "Marriage: America's Greatest Weapon Against Child Poverty." Heritage's study, including a slideshow on national trends, arrives a week before the U.S. Census Bureau's annual report on poverty, which is expected to show another increase.
"Policymakers on the state and national levels recognize that education reduces poverty, but they're largely unaware that marriage is an equally strong anti-poverty weapon," says Rector, a nationally recognized authority on the U.S. welfare system.
In Florida, for example, white families headed by single parents are five times more likely to be poor than those headed by married couples. In Illinois, the poverty rate for a single mother with only a high school diploma is 39.5 percent, compared with 8 percent for a married couple with the same education.
The rate of births to unmarried women-now four out of every 10 babies overall, five out of 10 for Hispanics, and seven out of 10 for blacks-has soared since the mid-1960s, when President Lyndon Johnson launched the War on Poverty. Births outside marriage are mostly to less-educated women-sadly, those with the least ability to support children.
While more Americans grow dependent on welfare, government fails to communicate the benefits of marriage even as it warns young people not to smoke, do drugs, have "unsafe" sex, or drop out of school. Rector calls this "tragic."
Well over a third of all single-parent families with children (37 percent) were poor in 2009. Only 6.8 percent of married couples with children were poor. Marriage reduces the probability of poverty for all racial groups.
Rector finds a silver lining: Most unmarried moms-and dads, too-do look favorably on marriage. "New policies should be developed that build on these attitudes," he says. Specifically, government should:
- Provide facts to at-risk youth about the value of marriage;
- Connect low-income couples with community resources that teach them the skills they need to build lasting marriages before having children; and
- Reform the welfare system to encourage rather than discourage and penalize marriage.

Medicaid Expansion's Creeping Costs to States Under the Supreme Court's ruling on the Affordable Care Act, states may choose to expand their Medicaid populations to include individuals below 138 percent of the federal poverty level, with the federal government picking up 100 percent of payments for the first three years and then rolling back federal payments. This structure is designed to be attractive to the states, since it appears to increase health coverage at little or no state-level cost. However, the expansion would be very expensive to states as early as 2019. In his fiscal year 2013 budget, President Obama has already proposed reducing the federal match rate on the expansion. Many states are already struggling with Medicaid spending. The blended rate proposed in the Administration's budget would make matters worse, costing states up to $3.4 billion a year. In his new paper, Heritage expert Drew Goronshowski explores the impact of a number of match rate reduction scenarios, providing state-by-state breakdowns for each. See the charts and full analysis >> State legislators cannot afford to be myopic when assessing the costs and benefits of expanding Medicaid. Aside from problems already apparent in Medicaid, such as patient access, states must also face uncertainty in how much the expansion will actually cost. The Medicaid expansion represents a giant increase in federal spending of $642 billion, according to the Congressional Budget Office. Instead of adding millions to Medicaid, Washington should reform the program. The Heritage Foundation's Saving the American Dream does just that. Explore the Heritage plan >>

Clinton Is Wrong on Welfare Reform
Last night, in his nationally televised speech, former President Bill Clinton said the charge that President Obama has gutted welfare reform was "a real doozy." Clinton, who vetoed welfare reform twice before signing the welfare reform law in 1996, echoed the Obama Administration and media "fact checkers," who have sworn that Obama's Health and Human Services Department (HHS) is actually trying to strengthen the work requirements of the law by doing away with them. The fact is that the Administration has gutted welfare reform, and Heritage has detailed reports on exactly how-and what the consequences will be. Heritage expert Robert Rector, who helped write the 1996 law, answered Clinton this morning in no uncertain terms:
The Obama Administration will put in mothballs the formal purpose of welfare reform-to reduce the number of people dependent on government benefits. The Administration will abandon the legislative performance goal that encourages states to reduce welfare caseloads. It will weaken the "work participation" standards that require some 30 percent of able-bodied Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) recipients to engage in work activities for 20 to 30 hours per week.
This week, the nonpartisan Government Accountability Office (GAO) also gave notice to the Administration that this type of law change must go through Congress. After Heritage's Rector and Kiki Bradley broke the story July 12 that HHS was gutting the work requirements by allowing states to obtain waivers, Senator Orrin Hatch (R-UT) and Representative Dave Camp (R-MI) asked the GAO to review the Administration's actions. Heritage legal experts Todd Gaziano, Robert Alt, and Andrew Grossman have already detailed why the Administration's actions are illegal-HHS has no authority to grant the type of waivers it is creating. The GAO told the lawmakers on Tuesday that the law changes should have been submitted to Congress. Last night, Clinton defended Obama's HHS, saying that it would waive the work requirements for states "only if they had a credible plan to increase employment by 20 percent and they could keep the waivers only if they did increase employment. Now, did-did I make myself clear? The requirement was for more work, not less." It may sound convincing, but Rector explains why this is a meaningless measure:
In the typical state, 1.5 percent of the TANF caseload leaves welfare and obtains work each month. Thus, any state can be fully exempted from the TANF work requirements if it raises the number of exits to 1.8 percent. This is a miniscule change. What will the other 98.2 percent of the caseload be doing? No one knows for sure. But one thing we do know for certain: They will be exempt from the federal "work participation" requirements established in the welfare reform law.
The 1996 reforms were an outstanding success. Poverty, especially among black Americans, dropped substantially. Employment of the most disadvantaged single mothers increased dramatically. These are not reforms that should be gutted. These are reforms that should be a signature accomplishment of the Clinton presidency. Unfortunately, he is repudiating his own accomplishment to cover for the Obama Administration. READ UP: Did Republican governors try to do the same thing the Obama Administration has done?

Progressives: Pro-choice on abortion, anti-choice on EVERYTHING else Well it turns out the Democrats do support small, limited government ...well, at least on one issue anyway. Reason TV interviewed Democratic delegates at the DNC this week to find out what exactly they mean when they say "pro-choice."
