By Ken Blackwell (Archive) · Monday, May 31, 2010 What’s a dhimmicrat, you say? It’s not the same thing as a democrat. A dhimmicrat is a person who, while not Muslim himself, nonetheless clears the path for shariah law to be adopted and incorporated into otherwise free nations. One prime example of this would be [...]
By Burt Prelutsky (Archive) · Monday, May 31, 2010 Liberals like to use “military intelligence” and “compassionate conservatives” as prime examples of oxymorons, but I think better ones are “civil servants” and “tolerant liberals”. Best of all, though, is a friend’s contribution, “Larry King Live”. If there’s one form of animal life that irritates me [...]

Dionne Jr. Monday, May 31, 2010 Why is it that every Memorial Day, we note that a holiday set aside for honoring our war dead has become instead an occasion for beach-going, barbecues and baseball? The problem arises because war-fighting has become less a common endeavor than a specialty engaged in [...]

It’s hard because there’s no conclusive definition of poverty. Low income matters, though how low is unclear. Poverty is also a mind-set that fosters [...]
By Jackson Diehl Monday, May 31, 2010 What sort of international order does Barack Obama seek? Last week he gave a detailed answer: “One that can resolve the challenges of our times — countering violent extremism and insurgency; stopping the spread of nuclear weapons and securing nuclear materials; combating a changing climate and [...]
By Lt. Gen. Thomas McInerney Published May 30, 2010 FOXNews.com Shortly after the Civil War both the North and South started to recognize those warriors who died in the epic war of our time. Originally this day was called “Decoration Day,” in which all the graves of those killed in this struggle were decorated with [...]
May 31, 2010 TOKYO (AP) — Japan’s prime minister told his Chinese counterpart Monday that he strongly supports Seoul’s plans to bring North Korea before the U.N. Security Council for sanctions or condemnation for the alleged sinking of a South Korean warship, an official said. Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama said North Korea should be punished [...]
Published May 30, 2010 FOXNews.com In what is measuring up to be the biggest environmental disaster in U.S. history, the government is nearly helpless to stop the oil flowing from the Deepwater Horizon well that exploded in the Gulf of Mexico on April 20. The White House said Sunday that it expects the spill to [...]
May 30, 2010 From CNN Associate Producer Martina Stewart Washington (CNN) – A leading Democratic voice on military affairs has criticized members of his own party for the hurried way in which congressional Democrats and the White House are pushing through the repeal of the military’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy.
