Obama’s Tear-jerking Story About His Uninsured Dying Mother was a Lie
July 14, 2011 By Ben Johnson
Despite our political and philosophical differences, one of the most touching and humanizing aspects of Barack Obama was his mother's tragic death of uterine and ovarian cancer in 1995. Obama frequently stated his self-employed mother spent her last days frantic, desperately trying to assure the insurance industry would not deny her coverage, instead of resting and preparing to meet her Maker … [Read more...]

July 9, 2011 By Ben Johnson

Voting Present: Obama Dithered 16 Hours Before Killing Bin Laden
May 5, 2011 By Ben Johnson
by Ben Johnson The media are salivating that Osama bin Laden's death will seal Barack Obama’s re-election. But detailed reports show that the process that led to the event Democrats are calling Obama’s greatest triumph should be tantamount to a disqualification for holding the nation’s highest office. Delving into the details reveals that Obama proved as weak-kneed and indecisive about … [Read more...]

“No Labels” Tries to Redefine Obama into the Center
December 14, 2010 By Ben Johnson
This author has reported extensively on the new faux centrist organization "No Labels" and its organizers' efforts to form a new, national third party in time for the 2012 presidential elections. After its kickoff event yesterday in New York City, it is clear the group is rendering yet another service to the president: It attempts to portray Barack Obama as a centrist. In a story today, … [Read more...]

RINOs Plan a Third Party
December 3, 2010 By Ben Johnson
Stung by a surging Tea Party movement, liberal Republicans and Democrats associated with Hillary Clinton are privately planning to form a “centrist” third party in time for the 2012 election. Political insiders believe if Barack Obama remains unpopular next year and the Republican nominee believes in small government conservatism, an independent run may be their best bet to keep the … [Read more...]

Obama Considering Rule by Executive Order in 2011
October 8, 2010 By Ben Johnson
This morning, political commentators are paying a great deal of attention to one of the Los Angeles Times’ stories about Barack Obama’s plans for a Republican takeover of Congress. Unfortunately, they are focusing on the wrong one. Most commentators spent the morning quoting the president’s remarks on a black radio program that a GOP-dominated Congress will result in “hand-to-hand … [Read more...]

The Washington Post Discovers Valerie Jarrett
September 29, 2010 By Ben Johnson
Dana Milbank has written an article for today’s edition of The Washington Post entitled, “Valerie Jarrett: The real center of Obama’s inner circle.” In it, Milbank properly writes no matter who replaces Rahm Emanuel as Barack Obama’s chief of staff, “the real power” resides “upstairs from the Oval Office, in the second-floor quarters of Valerie Jarrett.” However, Milbank omits … [Read more...]

Obama’s Defense Plan: “We Can Absorb a Terrorist Attack”
September 22, 2010 By Ben Johnson
“September the 11th for them was a bad day; for us it was a change of attitude” — President George W. Bush, 2006. Barack Obama has a unique response to terrorist attacks: America can “absorb” them. A new book shows the president exhibits blasé indifference to the prospect of American citizens suffering another 9/11 attack from Islamic terrorists but is highly concerned that he not … [Read more...]

Obama Threw “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” Case
September 13, 2010 By Ben Johnson
The voice of Terry Jones threatening to burn 200 Korans drowned out most other news last week, so some may be unaware that U.S. District Judge Virginia A. Phillips ruled Thursday that the military’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy was unconstitutional. Phillips, who was appointed to the bench by Bill Clinton, claimed excluding homosexuals from the military violated the First and Fifth … [Read more...]
