From the right to abortion to “the separation of church and state,” the nation's courts seem to be in the habit of inventing new “rights,” entitlements, and emanations of penumbrae to justify their predetermined decisions. In that spirit, I propose a new legal doctrine: the separation of restroom and state. This novel concept is inspired by the Obama administration's decision to force … [Read more...]

Obama’s DOJ Promises To Keep Serving Muslim Interests
December 13, 2010 By Ben Johnson
Here’s a measure of just how subservient our present leadership is to American Muslims: Attorney General Eric Holder is reassuring Muslim groups that the Justice Department will continue persecuting prosecuting their enemies after they “raised concerns” the feds were unfairly targeting the Religion of Peace. The trouble, it seems, is that the Justice Department keeps arresting Muslims trying … [Read more...]

“Give Them the Wealth”: Obama’s Stealth Reparations
October 20, 2010 By Ben Johnson
More than a decade ago, American Indian farmers claimed the U.S. Department of Agriculture had discriminated against them for…more than a decade. National Public Radio reports the class action lawsuit’s lead plaintiffs, “George and Marilyn Keepseagle of North Dakota, had sought some $500 million in damages.” This week, Barack Obama’s appointed representatives managed to negotiate them … [Read more...]

New Proof of Perjury, Obstruction in Black Panther Case?
September 23, 2010 By Ben Johnson
A series of major new developments threaten to expose the full extent of the Obama administration’s role in dismissing charges against the New Black Panther Party, an investigation that could reveal obstruction of justice and perjury. Most significantly, Christopher Coates, who was head of the Justice Department’s Voting Rights section at the time and suggested the case proceed, will … [Read more...]

Mr. President, If You Support the Troops, Help Them Vote
September 1, 2010 By Ben Johnson
One of the president's aims in his address last night was to clean up his image as the community-organizer-in-chief, the president who refuses to wear a flag pin on his lapel or put his hand over his heart for the national anthem. He attempted to boost his patriotism by rhetorically hitching himself to George W. Bush In his address last night, Barack Obama said: This afternoon, I spoke to former … [Read more...]

August 18, 2010 By Ben Johnson

The Left’s Man at Commerce
December 5, 2008 By Ben Johnson
AT THEIR BEST, POLITICAL APPOINTMENTS are a function of accomplishment, expertise, or judgment. At their worst, they are the consolation prize of cronyism. With Bill Richardson’s appointment as Secretary of Commerce, President-elect Obama veered sharply toward the latter. Although he has little experience in the private sector, Richardson will helm the department most responsible for U.S. … [Read more...]

Now that a 2001 public radio interview has surfaced to confirm The One has plotted to redistribute middle class wealth since the beginning of his political career, the media are in overdrive to save their savior.
