DANIEL GREENFIELD: THE GANG RELIGION OF ISLAM

http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/ Killing non-Muslims is the point of Islam. To the extent that it has any point. That isn’t to say that Islam doesn’t preach the virtues of charity and love for one’s fellow Muslim. It does. But its virtues are not original. Like most of the rest of the framework of it, they are lifted […]

http://frontpagemag.com/2013/dgreenfield/bill-de-blasio-and-the-jews/print/ Bill de Blasio won 38% of the Jewish vote in the New York City Democratic Primary.

The latest Marist poll, which shows de Blasio with a 43% lead, also shows the […]

http://frontpagemag.com/2013/dgreenfield/bill-de-blasio-future-mayor-of-new-york-supported-anti-semitic-marxist-terrorists/print/ Too many people were besotted with Bloomberg bashing to understand that the reason he won so many elections is that the alternatives were much, much worse.

BRUCE THORNTON: WHAT WOULD THE FOUNDERS THINK OF DEFUNDING OBAMACARE?

http://frontpagemag.com/2013/bruce-thornton/what-would-the-founders-think-of-defunding-obamacare/ A few days ago CNN anchor Brooke Baldwin, speaking about the Republican House bill defunding Obamacare, commented, “Certainly not the way the Founding Fathers maybe drew this thing up.” It’s certainly a surprise to hear an anchor on CNN, an organization biased in favor of progressives, appealing to the authority of the Constitution. For a […]

EILEEN TOPLANSKY: THE WRECKING BALL KNOWN AS OBAMACARE

http://www.americanthinker.com/2013/09/the_wrecking_ball_known_as_obamacare.html

It is mindboggling that so many people are totally unaware of ObamaCare, have no interest in discussing it, and are dismissive and rude if someone attempts to have a rational conversation about a law that will drastically change the landscape of this country.

This deliberate ignorance continues to beget denial. Consequently, we find America on the verge of a system that apparently only African and Eastern European acquaintances of mine instantly understand, since they ran away from the very draconian worldview that we will all face in a matter of days if ObamaCare is not stopped dead in its tracks.

Daily, one learns that ObamaCare is a job destroyer. The graph here shows that deep cuts to jobs will continue as “ObamaCare kills off at least two percent of the U.S. full-time workforce.” The list of companies cutting hours for workers continues to grow. Employers seek to keep staff below the 30-hour threshold set by the not-so Affordable Care Act.

Thus, “according to an April survey conducted by the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), 41% of 603 small business owners” are delaying hiring. In fact, “one in five [have] already cut hours, while 20% have reduced payroll.”

Reduction of workers’ hours is now a direct result of ObamaCare. In the retail and hospitality industries, 20% of employers will cut part-time hours.

Mr. Yanukovich—long seen as Russian President Vladimir Putin’s man in Kiev—quickly extended the lease on Russia’s naval base at Sevastapol. And it wasn’t long into his presidency that his old political rival, […]

Bennett and Beach: The Hypocrisy Of Congress’s Gold-Plated Health Care

Special subsidies for Hill workers trample on the Founders’ code of equal application of the law. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424127887324665604579080921594857770.html?mod=opinion_newsreel As close observers of history and human nature, James Madison and the other Founders of the U.S. Constitution knew that the equal and unbiased application of the law to all people, especially elected officials, is essential to freedom […]
