http://frontpagemag.com/2013/daniel-pipes/a-stew-of-anti-muslim-bile-and-conspiracy-laden-forecasts/print/ At 11:20 a.m. on Feb. 5, Lars Hedegaard answered his door bell to an apparent mailman. Instead of receiving a package, however, the 70-year-old Danish historian and journalist found himself face to face with a would-be assassin about one third his age. The assailant shot him once, narrowly missing his head. The gun locked, […]
http://frontpagemag.com/2013/arnold-ahlert/obamas-billion-dollar-giveaway-to-the-muslim-brotherhood/ In the past few weeks, Americans have been subjected to a barrage of doomsday predictions regarding the disaster that would befall us should the sequester come to pass. Many were rightly incensed, then, that last Thursday, only one day before the “devastating” sequester cuts were scheduled to kick in, newly appointed Secretary of State […]
http://frontpagemag.com/2013/dgreenfield/stalins-dead-hand/print/ Imagine if Hitler had ranked first in a current German survey of the greatest figures of history. While that did not happen, last year Stalin finished first among Russians in a Carnegie survey of the most influential figures of history, proving that people do not learn from history, they learn from the victors of […]
http://frontpagemag.com/2013/matthew-vadum/venezuela-after-chavez/print/ After a long battle with cancer, Barack Obama’s less media-savvy comrade Hugo Chavez is finally dead. Venezuela’s Vice President, Nicolas Maduro, announced that the communist tyrant died yesterday after seeking medical treatment from the quacks and bunglers laughingly referred to as the Cuban health care system. Hidden away from the public for months, Chavez, […]
http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/ Somewhere in the first half of Moscow on the Hudson, a bedraggled Robin Williams huddles on the luxurious first floor of Bloomingdale’s clamoring in an unconvincing Russian accent that he wants to defect. Standing between him and a furious KGB officer is a minimum wage store security guard in a red blazer. The KGB […]

Fred Upton (House Commerce Committee chairman) and Cathy McMorris Rodgers (House Republican Conference chairwoman). It is especially precious to find Rep. Upton […]

Putting politics over public safety: Brennan’s backing of Shariah could cost American lives
An ominous pattern has been developing, particularly of late: The Obama administration seems determined to subordinate public safety to political expediency. If a course-correction is not effected promptly, the result is predictable. Americans will be needlessly harmed and, perhaps, killed.
The most recent and obvious example was the release last week of hundreds of reportedly dangerous illegal aliens from federal detention. The rationale given was that sequestration-dictated budget cuts made their incarceration unaffordable. The White House has disavowed any involvement in this reckless decision. It was certainly in keeping, though, with President Obama’s erstwhile mantra that extremely dire repercussions — including the disruption of critical public services — would flow from a fiscal train wreck that he has refused either to acknowledge devising or to stave off.

In an interview with The Daily Caller’s Ginni Thomas, Andrew C. McCarthy, the former assistant United States attorney who successfully led the prosecutions of the 1993 World Trade Center bombers, painted a picture of borderline schizophrenic foreign-policy leadership in the Obama administration.
“Libya is probably the best example,” he said. “[Fomrer Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi] had been brought in from the cold by the U.S. government during the Bush administration, and the Obama administration actually stepped up the amount of aid that the U.S. was providing to Gaddafi’s regime. We counted him as an important counterterrorism partner, precisely because he was providing us with a lot of information about jihadists. … President Obama for whatever reason decided to pivot and side with the jihadists against Gaddafi.”
“It seems to me that even before the Benghazi massacre on September 11, 2012, the Libya policy was an unmitigated disaster for the United States, and things like Benghazi were entirely predictable

The now-retired Rodman normally relishes raised eyebrows at his outrageous appearance and behavior, both on and off the court, which he dominated throughout his illustrious career as a legendary rebounder.
