Conservative journalists have exposed the Obama administration’s attempts to politicize the National Endowment for the Arts. Andrew Breitbart’s website has detailed two conference calls in August aimed at recruiting artists to shill for health care “reform” and environmental legislation. However, it has been overlooked that an NEA official and numerous employees in Valerie Jarrett’s office … [Read more...]

Dancing with the Devil
September 21, 2006 By Ben Johnson
IF NOTHING ELSE CAME OUT OF YESTERDAY’S SPEECH AT THE UN, we now know what is on Venezuelan proto-fascist Hugo Chavez’s reading table. “Noam Chomsky, and this is one of his most recent books, Hegemony or Survival: The Imperialist Strategy of the United States,” he said, hoisting the tome aloft at the podium. “I will just leave it as a recommendation.” His Chomsky citation merely proves what … [Read more...]

The Fifth Column’s Return to Iraq
August 30, 2006 By Ben Johnson
TO FIND PEOPLE WHO HATE AMERICA AS MUCH AS THEY DO, the Fifth Column Left had to go halfway around the world to meet with Iraqi political leaders who call terrorism “honorable national resistance” and say foreign jihadists “are guaranteed Paradise” – and at least one of whom has ties to militia leader Muqtada al-Sadr. By the end of the trip, the American leftists would echo these … [Read more...]

To Fallujah, With Love
January 5, 2005 By Ben Johnson
Pillars of the Hate America Left, who have taken great pains to aid the enemy in every American military venture for 20 years, have just returned from Iraq, where they delivered more than half-a-million dollars in aid to “the other side”– with the full knowledge and consent of left-wing Congressman Henry Waxman, D-CA. Waxman has signed a letter allowing radical leftist Medea Benjamin and a … [Read more...]

“Charitable” Foundations: ATMs for the Left
March 2, 2004 By Ben Johnson
One of the unlamented developments of this election year is the Democratic Party’s retreat to the Left. Although the media claim the party's voters have learned their lesson by settling for the “electable” John F. Kerry, a cursory examination of the Democrats shows they remain animated by anti-Bush furor. The party rank-and-file may have decided they prefer the sing-song cadences of John … [Read more...]

America’s Fifth Column Goes to Iraq
July 28, 2003 By Ben Johnson
When the Left failed to prevent the American military from entering Iraq, it turned from protest to sabotage. Conducting illegal "direct actions" to disrupt everyday life, so-called peace activists organized illegal demonstrations to shut down key financial districts and tie up homeland security forces. While some tried to close Oakland’s seaport, others stormed military bases and called … [Read more...]
