RENEW AMERICA 10/02/2014



October 2, 2014
JOSEPH FARAH — No one is rooting harder for a big Republican victory in the 2014 midterm election than I am. But it's not because I like Republicans. In fact, with a few notable individual exceptions, I don't even know what they stand for. I suspect it's something like this: "We're not as bad as the other guys." And that's a problem.... (more)

ARLEN WILLIAMS — If November 4th's elections turn out as all the data gatherers, electoral analysts, and yours truly presently assess, the Republican Party would most likely gain the caucusing majority in the U.S. Senate, 52-48. That possibility however is way too close to call, like calling ball or strike on a knuckler halfway to the plate... (more)


October 2, 2014
CLIFF KINCAID — I learned about the passing of former Washington Times columnist John Lofton as I was looking through an old file of clippings and found a Lofton gem entitled, "Where terrorism is rooted," from the July 5, 1985, issue of the paper. It's a reminder of Lofton's important style of writing and the fact that the Islamists we face today learned their style of warfare from the Soviets... (more)

CINDY SIMPSON — As our nation considers what President Obama now admits as "the real and growing threat" of terrorism, the question must be asked: What is the "Obama Doctrine?" If we discover that the answer, rather than a description of a "half-hearted war on terror," is a similar but refocused version of the Bush Doctrine -- we will find ourselves "stumbling" more than Sarah Palin to explain it to the likes of Charlie Gibson...

WES VERNON, RA ANALYST — After a full century of steady string of wars, each related to the others as in a continuing narrative, one political scientist has undertaken to categorize them and their warrior practitioners. The few who pay attention will ask "Who cares?, War is war, Does any one of them require a methodology niche?... (more)


October 2, 2014
KEN CONNOR — A recent Pew study made headlines last week, revealing that "as values, economics, and gender patterns change . . . the share of American adults that have never been married is at an historic high." According to the report "adults are marrying later in life, and the shares of adults cohabiting and raising children outside of marriage have increased significantly. . . . In addition, shifting public attitudes, hard economic times and changing demographic patterns may all be contributing to the rising share of never-married adults."... (more)

BRYAN FISCHER — The Supreme Court will, perhaps even in this session, take up the issue of sodomy-based marriage. If it does, justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Sonia Sotomayor will have an obligation to step off the bench for those cases on the grounds that their impartiality has been severely compromised...

STAR-TELEGRAM — The number of possible contacts with the Ebola patient in Dallas has risen to 80, said Zachary Thompson, Dallas County Health and Human Services director Thursday... (more)


October 2, 2014
WORLDNETDAILY — Ebola has now entered the U.S. because of President Obama's open-borders policy, charged talk-radio host Michael Savage. Savage who has a doctorate in epidemiology, said Obama refused to employ the basic epidemiological rule of quarantining a deadly virus, "because the far-left agenda is to have an open-borders policy."...

NEW YORK TIMES — Julia Pierson resigned under pressure as director of the Secret Service on Wednesday after failing to quell a bipartisan political furor over repeated breaches of White House security and losing the confidence of the president her agency is charged with protecting... (more)

GARTH KANT — White House intruders are nothing new. President Herbert Hoover had dinner unexpectedly interrupted twice, once by a sightseer and again by a man demanding an appointment. An uninvited guest watched a movie with President Franklin Roosevelt, unnoticed until the lights came on. An intruder followed the Marine Band and toured the White House on his own for 15 minutes during the second inauguration of President Ronald Reagan. Two guests successfully invited themselves to a state dinner with President Barack Obama in 2009... (more)

NEWSMAX — President Barack Obama has missed 58 percent of the national security intelligence briefings during each of his terms in office, political commentator and author Dick Morris said Wednesday on "America's Forum" on Newsmax TV. "When you miss an intelligence briefing, it takes some effort," Morris explained. "They come to you and usually it's the first thing in the morning and always an aide that comes in... (more)


October 2, 2014
NEWSMAX — Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt says there is evidence to suggest that a beheading at a food processing plant in his state may have been terrorist-related and not simply "workplace violence." Alton Nolen, 30, is charged with killing his co-worker Colleen Hufford, 54, by cutting off her head, then attacking and seriously injuring co-worker Traci Johnson, 43... (more)


October 2, 2014
NEWSMAX — A former member of an Oklahoma mosque attended by the suspect in a recent beheading said members and leaders taught radicalism but hid it from the media. On Wednesday on Fox News Channel's "The Kelly File," the man appeared in silhouette, using the name Noor... (more)


October 2, 2014
CLIFF KINCAID — In a sympathetic profile just before his resignation, Politico said Eric Holder's biggest legacy may be "his quiet dismantling of the War on Drugs...." How he could have "accomplished" this without legislative authority from Congress -- which is supposed to make and pass laws -- is never really explained. He was an Attorney General described by President Barack Obama as "the people's lawyer." Anybody familiar with Marxist jargon knew exactly what Obama meant... (more)


October 1, 2014
JEROME R. CORSI — While legions of reporters working for traditional print and broadcast outlets have focused on Alton Nolen, the 30-year-old African-American convert to Islam who allegedly beheaded a female co-worker, it's been left up to family and friends to memorialize Colleen Hufford, age 54 at the time of her death....

Activist alert!
ROGER OGDEN — Find a street corner, a government building, or an overpass and start making your signs, because National Impeach Obama Week is October 18-25, just before the mid-term elections. The time to stand up and be counted is before the election, not after. You can learn more and register your own protest at this link... (more)


September 29, 2014
ALAN KEYES — This week, Ann Coulter finds it hard to understand the way the GOP's elitist faction leaders are approaching the 2014 election. But Rush Limbaugh shrewdly understood the significance of their approach some time ago. The GOP's elitist faction leadership doesn't mind "winning" the 2014 congressional elections, so long as it's not a big, decisive victory... (more)


September 29, 2014
CLIFF KINCAID — Reporter Charlo Greene of the CBS television affiliate in Alaska used an obscenity on the air, announcing she was quitting her job, and revealed that she had been president of the Alaska Cannabis Club even while reporting on it for station KTVA.
