Following the terrorist attacks on Paris last Friday, a tweet of Donald Trump’s went viral. In it, the Republican presidential candidate scorned Paris for its supposed anti-gun policies. “Isn’t it interesting that the tragedy in Paris took place in one of the toughest gun control countries in the world?” the tweet from January read. French ambassador Gérard Araud replied to Trump, “This message is repugnant in its lack of any human decency. Vulture.” The tweet from the ambassador was deleted later. For more on this, read the article from Talking Points Memo titled: “French Ambassador Calls Trump A ‘Vulture’ After...

Bernie Sanders: We Are All Still Paying For Bush & Cheney’s STUPID Policies

Posted by | Nov 17, 2015 | |

Speaking in Cleveland, Bernie Sanders criticized the presidency of George W. Bush and the policies that were enacted by him and Vice President Dick Cheney. “You remember President Bush,” said Sanders. “He was very, very tough, but not very smart. He and Dick Cheney and the whole lot of them, they were tough! And they said, ‘We should Invade Iraq.’ We should do it virtually alone and the result was 6,700 brave men and women from our country dead, hundreds of thousands of our best young people coming home with injuries – physical and emotional.

Shepard Smith: We Cannot Give In To Barbarian Ways. We Are America. We Must Lead.

Posted by | Nov 17, 2015 | |

On Monday, Fox News host Shepard Smith took a stand against denying refugees entrance to the United States, an idea that is swelling with popularity in the conservative ranks. Smith calls for Americans to remain sober in the face of adversity and attack, to not give way to fear and the hatred of the enemy. It seems to me, we the People have a responsibility to protect that which we hold dear. In the face of terror, will we panic or be calm and deliberative in approach? Confronted with those who want to change our way of life, will...
