RENEW AMERICA 12/01/2014


RENEWAMERICA — Shortly after communist-mentored Barack Obama was elected to the White House in 2008, I asked a brother at a family gathering, "Who's going to be president of the United States in 20 years?" Without hesitating, he said, "Barack Obama"... (more)

ALAN KEYES — In the aftermath of World War II, Soviet-backed Communist Parties consolidated their monopoly of power in the countries of Eastern Europe. However, to facilitate control and give the appearance of "democratic" elections, the communists allowed for the existence of parties nominally distinct from the Communist Party, though in fact subservient to its agenda in all respects...

NEWSMAX — Liberals who aren't taking the current court challenge to Obamacare seriously risk enabling the healthcare law's demise, writes Sam Baker in National Journal.

ROBERT KNIGHT — It's not enough for the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) to use its legal clout to halt graduation invocations or prayers before high school football games. In Florida, the ACLU insists that even a secular school concert in a building that is used for religious services is beyond the pale. As is often the case, a single "atheist" parent complained, and that was enough for the ACLU to threaten legal action over the possibility of attendees catching religion "cooties."... (more)

ANDREW C. MCCARTHY — As Ferguson burned this week, the law books got a workout. Suddenly, grand-jury procedure was all the rage.

WASHINGTON TIMES — In the summer of 2013, after neighborhood watchman George Zimmerman, a Hispanic, was acquitted in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin, an unarmed black teenager, the political left wanted to have a discussion about everything except the black crime rates that lead people to view young black males with suspicion....

FBI officials are concerned over the background checks yet to be completed for the sales.

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON — Obama claims he has the legal authority to grant amnesty because Ronald Reagan and George H. W. Bush did it. But again, Obama predictably misleads. Both of those presidents worked with Congress to ensure that new immigration legislation would not split apart families. The amnesties they granted were in accordance with the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 and had only a fraction of the impact that Obama's executive order would have.... (more)
