Morning Briefing
For April 22, 2014
Race War to Victory
The Democrats do not have an agenda to run on in 2014. And contrary to the prognostications of the left, no doubt consoling themselves, Obamacare is not going to sink the GOP. In fact, the Republican Party, like the Democrats in 2006 and the GOP in 2010, can run as the party of “NO”. Most Americans are tired of Barack Obama, they are tired of the Democrats’ controlling the levers of government, and they are ready for a change.
The only card the Democrats have left to play is race. Mind you, this is not a card they will play to victory. But it is a card they will play to mitigate damage. We are already seeing it and it will be combined with the “War on Women.” . . . please click here for the rest of the post →

Articles like this are very helpful. For Republicans: “Is there anyway Democrats can win the 17 seats they need to capture the House majority this November? In one word: Yes.”
In several hundred words: no, not really. . . . please click here for the rest of the post →
Federal Arrogance Fuels The New Sagebrush Rebellion
The recent standoff between the paramilitary wing of the US Bureau of Land Management and Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy is simply bringing to the surface a long standing controversy between BLM, USDA, and other federal agencies and ranchers and miners in the West. This is not new. It is merely a continuation of the Sagebrush Rebellion that began under the regime of the odious James Earl Carter. . . . please click here for the rest of the post →
Ohio GOP: Our Conservative Critics are Secret Democrats
A recent Ohio Republican Party (ORP) hit piece framing Republican legislative candidate Tom Brinkman as someone who “voted with Democrats” is emblematic of the Party’s attempts to crush conservative opposition. . . . please click here for the rest of the post →
Justina Pelletier And The Rule Of The Little Eichmanns
In February 2013, Linda and Lou Pelletier brought their daughter, Justina, to Boston Children’s Hospital. She was unable to walk, but, as it has turned out that was the least of her problems.
Justina had been treated for some years by a specialist for mitochondrial disease, but was otherwise normal. . . . please click here for the rest of the post →
Randall Munroe is right about the First Amendment
Randall Munroe went off on First Amendment issues in his xkcd comic last week. He’s absolutely right too, when he says “If you’re yelled at, boycotted, have your show cancelled, or get banned from an Internet community, your free speech rights aren’t being violated. . . . please click here for the rest of the post →
Only A Bully Argues The Debate Is Over
I’ve noticed something worse than usual about the Left of late. They are more brazen and ham-handed in their efforts to silence their detractors. They don’t outwit or out-debate them. They just explain that the debate is over before it is ever really allowed to commence in the first place. . . . please click here for the rest of the post →
The Vine
Americans across the country cheered on those participating in the Boston Marathon. It was an emotionally difficult day for runners and spectators alike, remembering last year’s tragic bombing in which three were killed and over 200 injured. However, it’s fitting that the marathon took place the day after Easter – a celebration of life. Today, Boston once again proved their strength and life was honored. For two men, it was their final Boston Marathon but the inspiration and hope they have provided the last 37 years will live on. As Live Action News describes, father, Dick Hoyt, “has pushed, pulled, and carried his son through thousands of races, including marathons, duathlons, and triathlons.” His son, Rick, was diagnosed at birth as a spastic quadriplegic with cerebral palsy. However, not only have the father and son duo shown the amazing strength of family, they’ve proven that disability does not define life. . . . please click here for the rest of the post →
