Nothing says fun and festive like the Heritage Foundation, which sponsored Tuesday night's CNN GOP Obama-bash fest. But despite all the good feeling flowing about bombing Iranians and expelling Mexicans, the event lacked the warm fuzzy feeling that oozed out of last Saturday's Family Leader Thanksgiving debate. Since...

It's not easy to speak truth to power or long-form birth certificates. But Rick Perry is up for the challenge. Last week, when he was asked if he believed the president's birth certificate was real, Perry responded, ""Well, I don't have a definitive answer... I don't know." Perry...

Rick Perry's record number of executions drew applause at last week's GOP debate. Among the 234 -- whoops, make that 235 as of today, it's hard to keep up -- killed under Perry was Cameron Todd Willingham, who received the death penalty for killing his three daughters by arson....

In quoting Einstein, Mitch McConnell alienates teaparty base, skeptical of science and "the whole Jew thing." McConnell was able to read into the future and predict the insanity of the president's speech, saying, "What is surprising is the president's apparent determination to apply the same government-driven policies that...

I doubt that any members of the Congressional Black Caucus got any sleep last night. I'm sure they were tossing and turning, sick with worry and regret, trembling in fear over Allen West's threat to leave the caucus. What could possible make West want to break ranks with colleagues he...

Congressman Joe Walsh told Obama to "quit lying." Here, Walsh's ex-wife tells Joe to "quit lying" about the child support he owes her. Walsh accused Obama of spending money like a drunken sailor, but Walsh is the one who spent money on vacations and his campaign while getting his condo foreclosed on, not paying his child support, or his campaign manager. Walsh also says he believes in "traditional marriage" and that studies show children are healthier when raised in home where a mother and father are present. Do as he says, not as he does.

The war on terror must be fought on every single front. The latest assault on our freedoms and values came in the form of meteorological nomenclature with Jihadi agents disguised as weathermen calling our good old fashioned American dust storm a Haboob, an Arabic word. Luckily, citizens of Arizona --...

Don't let the Osama Bin Laden stunt distract you! Even though Barack Obama released his long form birth certificate, critical thinking Americans are still suspicious of the president's credentials as a U.S. citizen. Birther of birtherism and tireless dentist Orly Taitz, is poking around for other rotten cavities in Obama's...

Rula Jebreal, whose autobiographical novel inspired Julian Schnabel's film Miral, condemns violence by Israelis and Palestinians, quotes Yitzhak Rabin, and is dedicated to peace.

Nothing says "sanctity of life" better than cervical cancer, breast cancer, and HIV!
That's why on February 18th, so-called "pro-life" members of the House of Representatives, voted 240 to 185 to defund Planned Parenthood, a premier women's healthcare provider for nearly a century, serving 3 million women a year in...

In light of the recent blood libel manufactured against Sarah "Sarahleh Palinsky" Palin, I present the following video, made during the 2008 campaign, in which Jews communicate why they support Palin and consider her a member of the tribe.

When Issa called Obama "one of the most corrupt presidents in modern...
