Stupidity or Treachery?

President Barack Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder have the guaranteed conviction of Khalid Sheik Mohammed in the civilian trial to be held in New York City. This can only mean the “fix” is in: the trial is rigged. Obama and Holder have undermined the very concept of fairness they profess to uphold. There is [...]

The Shame of Obama and Holder

Two weeks ago Obama gave the green light to Attorney General Eric Holder to proceed with the trial of the five admitted 9/11 terrorists to be tried in Federal Court in New York City.

Tear Down This Wall!

President Obama’s refusal to make a timely decision (in itself a [...]

The administration’s “cash for clunkers” program [...]
