As if the Obama administration’s lawsuit against the state of Arizona wasn’t outrageous enough, now Arizonans are learning that the State Department under Hillary Clinton has referenced the Arizona illegal-immigration law to the scandal-ridden U.N. Human Rights Commission (HRC).

The following excerpt is from an article titled The Progressives’ Legacy of Bankruptcy by Tiffany Miller.

President Obama finally decided to take a position on the Ground Zero Mosque, and as expected, he sided against America. Speaking at a White House dinner celebrating the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, the president strongly approved of building a mosque near ground zero claiming the country’s founding principles demanded it. But I can find [...]

The so-called Livable Communities Act is top-down central planning scheme designed to change where we live and work, and how we travel.

The Senate confirmed Elena Kagan Thursday as the Supreme Court’s 112th justice and fourth woman.

Shirley Sherrod plans to sue Andrew Breitbart over the excerpted videotape showing Sherrod expressing racist sentiments.
