About six people were seen getting close to the animal near the Silver Dragon Chinese Restaurant on Spray Avenue in the mountain town, holding a camera while standing just steps away from the large ungulate.

Putin’s clever, cynical Syria strategy befuddles White House once again

Putin’s clever, cynical Syria strategy befuddles White House once again Charles Krauthammer Once again, President Obama and his foreign policy team are stumped. Why is Vladimir Putin pouring troops and weaponry into Syria? After all, as Secretary of State John Kerry has thrice told his Russian counterpart, Sergei Lavrov, it is only making things worse. But worse for whom? For the additional thousands of civilians who will die or flee as a result of the inevitably intensified fighting. True, and I’m sure Lavrov is as moved by their plight as by the 8,000 killed in Russia’s splendid little Ukrainian adventure…. View Article

Gregory Buckley Jr. told his father what was troubling him: From his bunk in southern Afghanistan, he could hear Afghan police officers sexually abusing boys they had brought to the base. “At night we can hear them screaming, but we’re not allowed to do anything about it,” the Marine’s father, Gregory Buckley Sr., recalled his son telling him before he was shot to death at the base in 2012….

Why allow women in combat if we won’t allow them to compete alongside men in sport

Why allow women in combat if we won’t allow them to compete alongside men in sport by John Robson Later this month the United States will almost certainly approve women in all combat positions. It’s a mistake whose time has logically come. I know, I know. Debate is closed on this issue. I’m not quite sure how that works in an open society though it seems to happen every time the left wins a policy battle, almost as though they were afraid of vigorous discussion. But questions thrown out the door have a way of climbing back in the window… View Article

Parties still in three-way tie after federal leaders’ debate: poll

Parties still in three-way tie after federal leaders’ debate: poll by Sean Silcoff A new poll suggests that last Thursday’s federal leaders’ debate on the economy had little effect on party standings, with the three main parties still locked in a virtual tie at around 30 per cent each, one month to go until the vote. However, The Globe and Mail/CTV/Nanos nightly tracking poll also shows the Liberal Party, led by Justin Trudeau, has knocked the NDP off the top perch as the party most Canadians would “consider voting for.” The Liberals scored 49 per cent on that question, up… View Article

The Ultimate List Of Barack Obama’s Big Fat Lies

The Ultimate List Of Barack Obama’s Big Fat Lies by David Rufful oe Wilson was right when he yelled “you lie” at Obama in 2009. Liberals refused to believe and dismissed Wilson as a “racist” — of course. If this list of sourced lies from PolitiFact doesn’t convince you, I’m afraid there’s no hope for you. 1. “My position hasn’t changed” on using executive authority to address immigration issues. 2. Says his comment about extremists being a JV team “wasn’t specifically referring to” Islamic State. 3. “Most young Americans right now, they’re not covered” by health insurance. 4. “We’ve got close to 7 million Americans who have… View Article

So… Here’s rock legend Ted Nugent’s take on the issue… Ted Nugent ✔ @TedNugent obama is a Christian & Im a gay vegetarian… View Article
