According to Greek mythology, a young Narcissus fell in love with his own image reflected in a pool of water, the pool of life. Hurtling forward to centuries later, along comes a preening, latter-day Narcissus, Barry Soetoro, posing in full […]
The consequences of the ‘Ferguson effect’ are already appearing. The main victims of growing violence will be the inner-city poor. Violence is up more than 60% compared with this time last year, according to Baltimore police, with 32 shootings over Memorial Day weekend.

Those responsible for drawing attention to it, the media, suffer it as well—by willingly accepting his narrative on Islam. For six years, we have borne witness to Obama’s repeated assertions Islam is a peaceful religion. Neither terrorist […]
(Conservativepapers) Obama’s terrible foreign policy is leading to the rise of radicalized Islam.
