Monday, June 17th, 2013

Election integrity thrown a curve by high court

In a ruling this morning, the U. S. Supreme Court said individual states cannot require would-be voters to prove they are U.S. citizens before using a federal registration system to register to vote.

Arizona’s voter approved requirement that prospective voters document their U.S. citizenship in order to use a registration form produced under the federal “Motor Voter” registration law was effectively tossed on its head by a 7-2 vote o...

The Difference between the Right and the Left – National Security Edition.

Thursday, June 6th, 2013

I don’t know if I’ve ever seen anything like the past several weeks.  I’m calling it Scandal-palooza.  The latest is the revelation from The Guardian about the NSA seizing ALL of Verizon’s telephone and email traffic.  Of course this is all in the name of national security and fighting terrorism, despite the fact that Obama tells us Al Qaeda is all but beaten, and the war on terror is over.  I’m sure the Democrats will tell us to move-along, there’s no scandal here, nothing to se...

“Spontaneous protest” at embassy was known to be preplanned

Wednesday was a busy day for Barack Hussein Obama.  Determined to reward incompetence and promote far-left extremists, while simultaneously slapping down conservative voices raised in concern,  he has named former UN Ambassador Susan Rice as his top national security adviser. This key post is in gratitude for her repeatedly spewing deceitful tales regarding the murderous attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi. She should ha...

Feds remove complete search list

It’s been a while since we visited the failed bank list. But bank closures in Scottsdale and Gold Canyon within weeks of one another are worthy of note.

Central Arizona Bank (click link for troubled asset ratio) was closed days ago by the Arizona Department of Financial Institutions, which appointed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) as receiver. To protect the depositors, the FDIC entered into a purchase and assumption agreement with Western Sta...

9th Circus Court overturns AZ law barring late term abortions

Tuesday, May 21st, 2013

Last summer, we wrote that U.S. District Court Judge James A. Teilborg ruled HB 2036, titled Mother’s Health & Safety Act, “is constitutional,” denying the American Civil Liberties Union and Center for Reproductive Rights’ request to stop the law from taking effect. The bill prohibiting most abortions after 20 weeks into a pregnancy was signed into law by Gov. Brewer.

The Court wrote “Given the nature of [abortion procedures], and the finding that the unborn child has devel...

Kermit Gosnell, the Philadelphia abortionist responsible for cutting the spines of babies born alive after botched late term abortions was convicted Monday of three counts of first-degree murder.  A 41-year-old mother also died. Today he was sentenced to two consecutive life terms.

Scandals, Benghazi, IRS scrutiny, phone taps = “I” word

MyWay News reports the Justice Department secretly obtained two months of telephone records of reporters and editors for The Associated Press in what the news cooperative’s top executive called a “massive and unprecedented intrusion” into how news organizations gather the news. When an agency clearly favorable to the Obama administration is under siege by the very regime they helped put in place, the impact of now seei...
