Clinton’s “inclusion policy” has brought in spies, and this is how she plans to soften the Muslim Brotherhood?  Clinton’s use of oxymoronic formulas to combat terrorism is worse than the moronic path taken by the likes of Jordanian doctor and double agent Humam al-Balawi -- he killed his enemies, seven CIA agents, while we bolster the confidence of ours.

Huma Abedin was never properly screened, and unless this darling of Hillary Clinton answers some tough questions, the issues we set forth regarding the failure to screen her makes for an ironclad case.

Reports that the Republican Party of Kentucky is considering a proposal that would put off the election of party leadership one year until 2013 has caused an uproar among members of the Tea Party, many of whom perceive it as a way to prevent Tea Party candidates from getting elected to the party leadership.

At the Daily Caller:

They weren’t wearing face paint, but they said they felt like they were in Braveheart.

More than 50 Tea Partiers, many from Utah, stormed the offices of the National Republican Senatorial Committee here in Washington on Monday to protest the organization’s support of Republican incumbent Sen. Orrin Hatch.

According to Newsmax, a "surging" Michele Bachmann":

Plans to announce [today] her candidacy for president from her birthplace of Waterloo, Iowa.

And, in an exclusive interview in the latest issue of Newsmax Magazine, Bachmann said that Washington is a “corrupt paradigm” of government that she’ll change as president.

“I think it is because of the corrupt paradigm that has become Washington, D.C., whereby votes continually are bought rather than representatives voting the will of their constituents. . . . That’s the voice that’s been missing at the table in Washington, D.C. -- the people's voice has been missing. The lobbyists have been here,” Bachmann explained.

As proved by his embarassing, disrespectful performance at Fort Drum yesterday, Barack Obama is a phony not fit to award the Medal of Honor.

Got questions? Ask SSGT Russ Vaughn, 101st Airborne.

But Michele Bachmann is:

A new presidential poll by Zogby International has U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann ranked as the leader of the pack of Republican hopefuls, far ahead of the men seeking to oust Barack Obama from the White House.

The online survey of 998 likely Republican primary voters conducted June 17-21 has the Minnesota congresswoman collecting 24 percent of the vote, with businessman Herman Cain and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney in a virtual tie for second at 15 percent each.

Question is: Where are those wheels rolling? Michelle Maklin writes:

The former Utah Republican governor and Obama ambassador to China is the answer to an election-year problem that doesn't exist.

The quadrennial "problem," in the minds of Beltway GOP strategists and liberal media chin-pullers, is that the Republican Party isn't moderate, civil, self-critical or inclusive enough.

Huntsman is the latest no-labels flavor of the month, a straw man of the same people who have spent the past year smearing entitlement reformers as senior citizen-killers, budget hawks as Hitler's spawn, border-security activists as racists, and leading GOP women as sluts, nuts and bimbos.

Malkin concludes:

McCain's Straight Talk Express ran out of gas when his former media paramours inevitably turned against him -- and his gambit to out-big government the Democrats blew up in his two faces. So it will be with McHuntsman and his campaign wheels to nowhere.

In this video, the presidential hopeful from Minnesota also explains how Obama "has failed the Hispanic community." For more on this, see Terry Jeffrey's report at CNSNews.com.

NBC vs. Facts, Truth, & God: By twice censoring the words "Under God" from the Pledge of Allegiance during coverage of the 2011 U.S. Open, the closed-down, extremist agenda of the formerly mainstream media demonstrates yet again its radical post-American, and yes, anti-American agenda.

You can watch the cult in action at YouTube.

Fortunately, as WND reports, "The omission did not go unnoticed," and later during the broadcast, NBC "apologized."

Yes, a free people notices, and, under God, revolts. That's the American Way (for more information, please consult the Declaration of Independence).

Question is: Are there any free people still working at NBC?

Hat tip: American Thinker

When Gov. Rick Perry of Texas "wrapped up" his speech at the Republican Leadership Conference in New Orleans earlier today, "activists rang the rafters with chants of 'Run, Rick, Run!'"

File Under "Test Everything": 

A Christian ministry's decision to expose as "false teachers" several celebrity ministers it believes are corrupting biblical teachings has prompted a rift, with Jack Van Impe Ministries dropping plans to work in the future with Trinity Broadcasting Network, where it has broadcast for more than two decades. . . .

The dispute arose over the issue of advocating for "Chrislam" and other efforts that are designed to find "common ground" between Christians and Muslims. TBN declined to air one of Van Impe's programs that contained sharp criticisms of leaders such as Rick Warren of The Purpose Driven Life fame and Robert Schuller.

From Jason Mattera at Human Events:

Rep. Michele Bachmann really impressed while Gov. Tim Pawlenty passed up the chance to hit Mitt Romney hard over his health care law in Massachusetts, which many say was a precursor to ObamaCare.  So said Donald Trump, in an exclusive interview with HUMAN EVENTS, reacting to the first major Republican Party presidential debate.

"When candidate Obama showed up, I realized that I had heard his typical stump speech every single day of my old Soviet life from big and small Communist bosses -- the same structure, the same cadences, the same bogeymen, the same demagoguery, the same targets," writes Luba Sindler in "Confession of a Reluctant Tea-Partier" at American Thinker.

"A new study has demonstrated that 80% of mosques right in this country are teaching jihad warfare and Islamic supremacism," writes Robert Spencer.

LifeSiteNews.com reports. And here are video excerpts of Cain's speech at the recent Faith & Freedom Coalition conference in Washington, D.C.

"Aides to GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney say he won't compete in the Iowa Republican Straw Poll in August, an event he spent more than $1 million to win four years ago," reports AP.

"A political pundit and former member of the Reagan administration says a purging of conservatives by the two Bush administrations has resulted in 'moderates' controlling the GOP -- and ultimately resulted in the election of Barack Obama," reports OneNewsNow.

"As conservatives wonder who will emerge as their standard-bearer to secure the 2012 GOP presidential nomination and make Obama a one-term president," states OneNewsNow, "the closest thing to a frontrunner is former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, whose record, particularly on social issues, has not been so conservative."

The only political hope for freedom in America is that of a Constitutional-Declarational renewal, which will not come from compromised Republicans or from out-of-the-U.S.-mainstream Democrats, whose philosophy is at war with the founding principles of human freedom.

"The New York politician leading the charge for true marriage in the state says he has faced death threats and a barrage of hate calls as a result of his stand," reports LifeSiteNews.com.

"I continue to be the target of a vulgar campaign by seething extremists who oppose my defense of New York’s marriage laws,” Democrat State Senator Ruben Diaz Sr. says in a May 26 press release.  "As a Christian, of course I love those who hate me and I will continue to pray for their souls."

"Mitt Romney, who is seeking the Republican nomination for president in 2012, said he thinks the Earth is getting warmer and that some of the temperature increase is man-made," reports CNSNews.com.

"Texas Gov. Rick Perry has invited the nation's governors to join him in a prayer day to seek God's guidance to deal with the problems facing America," reports AP.

"The day for prayer and fasting is planned for Aug. 6 in Houston. Perry urged governors in other states to also proclaim Aug. 6 a day to pray for 'unity and righteousness'."

Here is the Governor's proclamation of a "Day of Prayer and Fasting for Our Nation" (website).

The Texas Tribune is reporting that the event is "fueling lots of political speculation about [Perry's] possible run for the White House."

Matt Lewis at Daily Caller says The Undefeated, the new film about Sarah Palin, "could be a real game-changer for Palin’s presidential chances."

The film is set to premiere in Iowa later this month.

David A. Patten writes at Newsmax:

Fast-rising GOP presidential candidate Herman Cain, the former Godfather’s Pizza CEO emerging as a strong contender in the Iowa caucuses, blasted President Barack Obama’s leadership abilities in an exclusive Newsmax interview, saying Obama "could not run one Godfather’s pizza restaurant."

The establishment American press today is no longer mainstream, either in its commitment to journalism or to freedom -- which is why I describe it as the formerly mainstream media.

What we have therefore at ABC, NBC, CBS, the New York Times, the Washington Post, and their disciples, etc., etc., are varieties of cult-like extremism against fair and balanced data-based reporting and varieties of cult-like extremism against the Constitution, the Declaration, and the reality-oriented ontology upon which these documents and their founding facts, content, and political and ethical principles stand.

The extremism of postmodern-day "reporting" is especially evident in its political coverage, and commentator Jedediah Bila calls for a dose of realism as we approach the election of 2012.

"It’s well past time to be realistic about 'objective' journalism and the games of some in the [formerly] mainstream media. However, it’s also time to be realistic about the enormous power of the people -- of grassroots America -- to deliver the truth that so many in the media elite would love for voters to never see." (my emphasis in brackets)

She concludes: "Let [formerly] mainstream media shenanigans make you that much more committed to setting the record straight, to utilizing the blogosphere and social media outlets to call it like you see it, and to letting the media elite know that the days of them controlling outcomes by perpetuating falsehoods are over." (my emphasis in brackets)

Objectivity in reporting is possible. One must, however, be willing to question the cult.

By a vote of 97 to 318, "legislation to raise the U.S. debt limit by $2.4 trillion failed to win House approval today in a vote Democrats said was rigged to ensure its defeat," according to a Bloomberg News report published at Newsmax.

"Republicans who control the House last week announced the vote as a way to demonstrate that lawmakers don’t support extending the $14.3 trillion debt limit without an agreement with President Barack Obama’s administration on significant spending cuts to curb government spending."
