Obama Protects ‘Image of Islam’ Not American Women from Rape

by Alex Swoyer GOP presidential candidate former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee is pointing out the hypocrisy in imposing gun control laws to stop “just one shooter,” but not vetting tens of thousands of refugees coming into America from terrorist infiltrated countries. “So President Obama and Hillary Clinton want to impose massive new gun control laws on all Americans to stop ‘just one shooter’ or save ‘just one life’- but vetting Syrian refugees to stop countless terrorists and save countless American lives is wrong?” Huckabee questioned. Huckabee responded in a press release on Saturday to several sexual attacks and rapes that refugees have committed in… View Article

In this latest Fox poll, 61 percent of… View Article

For Republicans, Mounting Fears of Lasting Split

By PATRICK HEALY and JONATHAN MARTIN The Republican Party is facing a historic split over its fundamental principles and identity, as its once powerful establishment grapples with an eruption of class tensions, ethnic resentments and mistrust among working-class conservatives who are demanding a presidential nominee who represents their interests. At family dinners and New Year’s parties, in conference calls and at private lunches, longtime Republicans are expressing a growing fear that the coming election could be shattering for the party, or reshape it in ways that leave it unrecognizable.

Advice contained in PM’s briefing book explains why Liberals are standing by $15B arms deal with Saudis By Mike Blanchfield, The Canadian Press Federal officials have told Prime Minister Justin Trudeau that Canada’s strategic interest would be well served by strengthening economic ties with oil-rich Saudi Arabia because of its powerful position in the Persian Gulf.
