Obama’s Illegal Alien Aunti: The Rest of the Story
by Michelle Malkin

I hope Barack Obama remembered to thank George Bush on behalf of his illegal alien aunt this week. The lame-duck Republican president did the Democratic president-elect a generous — and dangerous — favor right before Election Day: Putting politics above homeland security, [...]

Agenda disappears from Obama Web site
Stephen Dinan
Tuesday, November 11, 2008
President-elect Barack Obama over the weekend scrubbed his transition Web site, deleting most of what had been a massive agenda for his first term that appears on his campaign’s site.

By BEN EVANS - 11 Nov
WASHINGTON (AP) — A Republican congressman from Georgia said Monday he fears that President-elect Obama will establish a Gestapo-like security force to impose a Marxist or fascist dictatorship.
“It may sound a bit crazy and off base, but the thing is, he’s the one who proposed [...]

For Russia’s Putin, knockabout with Obama is just the ticket
Still Russia’s dominant politician, Vladimir Putin can only relish the prospect of a new bout of Russian-US rivalry with American leader-in-waiting Barack Obama, say analysts.
While much of the world celebrated Obama’s US presidential win, a stony-faced Russian reaction was a reminder [...]

By STEPHEN OHLEMACHER

What Obama’s Victory Means for Racial Politics
Barack Obama’s election is both an astounding political victory — and the end of an era for black politics.
It is not even 50 years since a group of civil-rights workers challenged racial segregation on interstate bus travel. In 1961, a scared group of young Freedom Riders got on a [...]

Media Defeats McCain?
by Brent Bozell III

It made the gooey 1992 Clinton campaign look like a fistfight [...]
