Barack Obama used his State of the Union address on Tuesday evening to make the best case for the interim nuclear deal with Iran–and against bipartisan sanctions legislation that enjoys majority support in both houses of Congress. The president’s “best case,” however, stretched the truth significantly, and in one respect was a plain lie: Iran […]
(CNSNews.com) – Sen. John Hoeven (R-N.D.) says if President Obama wants to get something done, he has to work with Congress, even if it’s not easy: “That’s why you get involved and you figure out how to compromise,” Hoeven told CNN’s “Crossfire” on Monday. “But he’s got to understand that you don’t come and dictate […]
President Obama says this is a “year of action”—and last night he made it very clear whose action he was talking about. After noting recently that he has a pen and a phone and can use those to make changes without the help of Congress, Obama charged forward with promises of taking executive action wherever […]
The White House’s recent policies against Israel do not reflect the will of the American people, according to a recent poll. The Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) released the results of a nationwide survey this month revealing that the vast majority of Americans support Israel on nearly every major issue addressed in peace talks between […]

Shimon Rahamim, an elderly Israeli, discovered what is perhaps the strangest newspaper article ever – an article in a Hebrew-language newspaper that called Hitler “favorable to the Jewish people.” The article, said Rahamim, is more than a historical curiosity. “It is a warning for the future,” he said. The article appeared in the Hebrew-language Doar Hayom […]
President Obama should use his State of the Union speech tonight to launch a much-needed “apology tour” to the American people. As shown by the fact that viewership of SOTU speeches has declined over the last three presidencies, Americans know that no president is going to use the speech as a chance to be honest […]
Defiant White House officials are setting the scene for a confrontational state of the union address on Tuesday night, claiming once again that President Barack Obama is preparing to “bypass” Congress with executive action and bypass congress. The White House press secretary, Jay Carney, spoke of a need to “bypass Congress where necessary”. In an interview […]
California has long been the flagship for Obamacare. It was targeted last fall by President Barack Obama’s own activist group, Organizing for Action, for precisely that reason: given the strength of their volunteer efforts, they hoped the state could be a symbol for the success of Obamacare as a whole. That is one reason that […]
Pete Souza/The White House/Polaris Sir Hew Strachan, an advisor to the Chief of the British Defense Staff, made some ripples across the pond with his judgment on the U.S. president’s foreign policy. “Obama has no sense of what he wants to do in the world,” Strachan said. Coming from a world-class military historian, it was […]
