Barack Obama Hates Black People

Let’s take a journey back in time. Do you remember when Hurricane Katrina happened and that intellectual giant, Kanye West, accused President Bush of hating black people because of the slow response from the Federal Government?

Justice or Revenge? The Morality of Celebrating Osama bin Laden’s Death

Most of the nation is still celebrating the elimination of Osama bin Laden, the monster behind one of the worst days in American history. Some are relieved bin Laden can no longer aid the jihadist cause; others take pleasure in knowing the suffering he caused us has been partially repaid.

Pathetic: Peter Beinart Uses Bin Laden’s Death to Declare War on Terror Over

We knew this was coming. No American victory in this day and age, not even the long-overdue death of terror mastermind Osama bin Laden, is safe from political hijacking by the useful idiots of the Left.
