Jan Brewer's photo with Obama

eagle@eaagleforum.org — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 16:13:07 GMT

The now-famous picture of Arizona Governor Jan Brewer shaking her finger at President Barack Obama is both appropriate and deserved. In America, we don't have rulers entitled to the deference and obsequiousness other countries show to their kings; our elected officials are ordinary citizens whom we are free to criticize.

Bailing out the European Union

eagle@eagleforum.org — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 17:29:19 GMT

It was bad enough when President Obama bamboozled Congress into passing a Stimulus bill that didn't produce any jobs, then increased the federal deficit in the 2012 omnibus spending bill, then raised the debt ceiling, then bailed out the big U.S. banks, then tried to bail out his pal Solyndra to try to save it from bankruptcy, and then appointed a Jobs Czar who creates jobs only in China. But it's over the top when Obama told the European Council President and the European Commission President that "the United States stands ready to do our part" to bail out Europe.

A trigger provision buried in U.S. laws since 1990 quietly took effect at the end of October. The U.S. taxpayers' annual donation of 22 percent of UNESCO's budget was summarily terminated when UNESCO voted 107 to 14 (with 52 abstentions) to approve full membership for Palestine.

Let's Talk About Jobs

eagle@eagleforum.org — Wed, 16 Nov 2011 15:16:26 GMT

Mexican Trucks Are On Our Roads

eagle@eagleforum.org — Wed, 09 Nov 2011 11:16:37 GMT

After years of negative votes in Congress and the opposition of the American people, on October 21 Barack Obama allowed the first Mexican truck to cross the border at Laredo, Texas and head north to deliver door-to-door service of its load of industrial equipment. This implemented an agreement quietly signed by Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood in Mexico City on July 6 with Mexico's secretary of Communications and Transportation.

Most Americans are unaware that about $700 Billion a year of federal taxpayers' money is handed out to non-taxpayers allegedly below a poverty line (in addition to $250 Billion a year given out by the states). After Barack Obama became President, he increased federal welfare spending by a third because, as he promised during his campaign, he wants to "spread the wealth," knowing that promotes dependence on government and votes for the Democrats.

Barack Obama, with the help of some Republicans who take their orders from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, is trying to pass a bill that will kill U.S. jobs, send more jobs overseas, and make more Americans dependent on government handouts. That's the Frances Fox Piven strategy Obama learned at a Socialist Party conference in New York while he was attending Columbia University.

Buying Counterfeit Chips from China

eagle@eagleforum.org — Wed, 05 Oct 2011 14:49:49 GMT

It's a problem for U.S. retailers when Communist China makes fake designer handbags and illegal copies of our music CDs, but it's a much bigger problem when the fakes are chips installed in our military weapons. The American people are starting to discover that counterfeit computer components bought from the Chinese are used in our war planes, ships, and communication networks.

College May Be Dangerous for Men

eagle@eagleforum.org — Wed, 14 Sep 2011 17:20:25 GMT

College is a dangerous place for men. They are not only a minority but they are victimized by discriminatory and unconstitutional anti-male rules.

In another striking proof that the Obama Administration is totally manipulated by feminists, the Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights sent out a 19-page "DCL" (Dear Colleague Letter) to colleges and universities that should make men fear attending college at all. The letter adopts the feminist theory that in all sexual controversies or accusations, the man is guilty unless he proves himself innocent.

Yes, Virginia, There Is a Gender Gap

eagle@eagleforum.org — Wed, 07 Sep 2011 13:23:45 GMT

Yes, Virginia, there is a gender gap. In fact, there are two gender gaps: one bad and one good. The bad gender gap is that the biggest losers in the Obama economy are men rather than women, a fact that is bad for men, for families, for the federal deficit and debt problems, and for the health of the U.S. economy. Men have lost twice as many jobs as women.

The most costly of the many changes is the fact that having children has become increasingly detached from marriage.

So, the Republicans did what Wall Street, President Obama and the media demanded, the stock market nose-dived anyway and S & P reduced our financial rating for the first time in history from Triple-A to second-place AA-plus.

The United Nations' sustainable development agenda would be laughable if it was not so destructive. In just one month, it deemed the snake trade and flush toilets unsustainable and determined that our standard of living should be measured by its undefined "pursuit of happiness" because using only the GDP (the market value of all goods and services produced within a country) could encourage unsustainable production and consumption. Such absurd decisions beg explanations.

A national scandal hit the news when Georgia Governor Nathan Deal released a 413-page report describing how hundreds of Atlanta public school teachers and principals had been cheating during the past ten years on standardized tests in order to falsely report that their schools were doing a good job and the kids were improving. A total of 178 teachers and principals (38 were principals), 82 of whom have already confessed, had fraudulently raised test scores so their schools would meet test targets set by the district and thereby qualify for federal funds.

The Insanity of Sustainable Development

eagle@eagleforum.org — Mon, 20 Jun 2011 19:42:53 GMT

Physicist Albert Einstein said that insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. That is exactly what the United Nations is doing with "sustainable development," which insists that economic, environmental and social equity or "justice" will produce health, peace and prosperity. The UN incorporates it in policies and treaties that target every nation, prodding them to conform to the same Marxist ideals that failed miserably in the 70-year experiment in the former U.S.S.R.

In 1993 Charles Murray identified "illegitimacy as the single most important social problem of our time . . . because it drives everything else." Murray was whistling in the wind. Last year, the U.S. illegitimacy rate had grown to 41 percent, and among whites it was 29 percent.

Sustainable Development Puts American Lifestyles in UN's Crosshairs

eagle@eagleforum.org — Wed, 01 Jun 2011 16:40:15 GMT

Americans do not like having our standard of living in the United Nations' crosshairs, especially considering we pay 22% of its $2.5 billion regular budget, plus 27% of its $9.5+ billion peacekeeping budget. Since 1987, the UN has plied a borderless issue called "sustainable development" to demean American lifestyles and demand economic, social and environmental "justice." They use it to agitate class warfare and control the behavior of people, businesses and organizations. It is the UN's cure-all for the world's real and imagined problems including global warming/climate change, poverty, conflict, etc.

Some Memorial Day Reflections

eagle@eagleforum.org — Fri, 27 May 2011 22:05:43 GMT

Memorial Day 2011 should call to our attention the real state of America today — a nation engulfed in the flames of a Culture War. This is a battle war that many of America's Constitutionalists are fighting poorly. But we cannot learn to fight until we learn to think. This Culture War is, so far, a war of words, but words inciting action - words expressing bitterly opposed philosophies, intellectual values, and policy goals. And as columnist Joseph Sobran observed in the first days of the Reagan Presidency, Americans [then and now] are "philosophically incompetent and intellectually unsophisticated."

Many of the assumptions of the feminist movement are so ingrained in our thinking, we have come to take them for truth. To speak ill of the social movement called feminism is to speak ill of women, or so we've been led to believe. Authors Suzanne Venker and Phyllis Schlafly, in their new book, The Flipside of Feminism, have courageously laid bare the false premises -- and promises -- of "the women's movement." And they have mercilessly quantified, to the extent possible, the negative effects that the feminist movement has had on American culture.

Contrary to Obama's political rhetoric, more taxpayer spending to send more students to college will not reduce unemployment or improve the economy. It's just Obama's way of finagling the unemployment statistics by listing young people as students instead of as unemployed.

America is engulfed in the flames of a Culture War, as we have asserted in recent Briefings. The current attack on the federal Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) by Humanistic forces is a renewed explosion on one of the hottest fronts in this War of Worldviews — the battle against marriage and morality as defined throughout the history of Western civilization, rooted in, and permeated by, Judeo-Christian perspectives and principles. Here, as throughout the Culture War, America's courts, led by the U. S. Supreme Court, have been weapons of mass destruction, attacking our Constitution, trying to beat it into a Humanistic document, and then use the reconstructed Constitution to beat our culture into a Humanistic society.

Have you seen the television pictures of the tens of thousands of demonstrators at the Wisconsin State Capitol who are protesting proposed budget cuts for state employees? If so, you've had an advance peek at the sort of demonstrations that will take place if state legislatures are foolish enough to pass resolutions asking Congress to call a national convention to consider amendments to the U.S. Constitution.

Free Trade with Protectionist China Cheats America

eagle@eagleforum.org — Fri, 18 Feb 2011 20:05:07 GMT

It looks like the Russians fooled us again in nuclear treaty negotiations. After President Obama bamboozled the Senate into a hurry-up ratification of his New START Treaty, Russia impudently rejected the McCain "understanding" that we don't have to abide by the Preamble's language limiting the U.S. from building anti-missile defenses.

Feminism Has Become a Hot Topic

eagle@eagleforum.org — Fri, 11 Feb 2011 19:17:02 GMT

The liberals have unjustly blamed Sarah Palin for many things, but there's one thing for which she is probably responsible: making feminism the hot topic that it has become today. Every couple of years Time and Newsweek ask "Is Feminism Dead?", but all of a sudden feminism is being discussed and debated in the MSM. Feminists have been weighing in to dictate their definition of feminism. Modern feminist Jessica Valenti defined it authoritatively in the Washington Post: "Feminism is a structural analysis of a world that oppresses women, an ideology based on the notion that patriarchy exists and that it needs to end."

VAWA Is an Excellent Target for Spending Cuts

eagle@eagleforum.org — Fri, 04 Feb 2011 01:16:51 GMT

While the U.S. House is trying to figure out how to cut wasteful and/or extravagant federal spending, Members should be mindful of Reagan's advice to begin by cutting programs that are harmful. One that fits this definition is the billion-dollar-a-year Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), now up for re-authorization.

Cheers for Repeal of ObamaCare

eagle@eagleforum.org — Fri, 28 Jan 2011 04:09:54 GMT

The U.S. House did what its candidates had promised and the voters expected: the House passed 245 to 189 a repeal of ObamaCare, the centerpiece of Socialism. Three Democrats joined every single Republican, with Michele Bachmann (R-MN) and Steve King (R-IA) spearheading the charge.

Obama's Plan to Admit Mexican Trucks

eagle@eagleforum.org — Fri, 21 Jan 2011 22:28:33 GMT

It is amazing that, with unemployment unacceptably high, the Obama Administration has endorsed a plan that will cost U.S. jobs and make highway driving for Americans more dangerous and less pleasant. Obama wants to admit Mexican trucks to drive on all U.S. highways and roads.

Detaching the Anchor from Anchor Babies

eagle@eagleforum.org — Fri, 15 Jan 2011 16:25:18 GMT

It's long overdue for Congress to stop the racket of bringing pregnant women into this country to give birth, receive free medical care, and then call their babies U.S. citizens entitled to all American rights and privileges plus generous handouts. Between 300,000 and 400,000 babies are born to illegal aliens in the United States every year, at least 10 percent of all births.

COP16 Final Report in Cancún, Mexico

eagle@eagleforum.org — Thu, 16 Dec 2010 23:35:48 GMT

COP16 came to a conclusion in the wee hours of Saturday morning as the summit president, Patricia Espinosa, banged her gavel declaring the text approved. The 190+ nations represented at the latest United Nations climate change conference held in Cancun, Mexico the first two weeks of December, all seemed in agreement even without the benefit of a vote.

U.N. Agrees on a Process to Design the Global Taxing Scheme

eagle@eagleforum.org — Sat, 11 Dec 2010 17:19:08 GMT

Cancun, Mexico's record-setting low temperature during the "global warming" conference did not cool the "hot air" at the U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change, Conference of the Parties 16. At 5:18 a.m. on Saturday, December 11, Mexican President Felipe Calderón proclaimed the meeting a success and announced next year's confab in Durban, South Africa. That meeting will be another step on their way to a "legally-binding" document they hope to produce in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 2012, a.k.a. Rio+20 signifying 20 years since the 1992 Earth Summit in Rio.

Lame Duck Judges Should Not Be Confirmed

Fri, 10 Dec 2010 22:46:04 GMT

One of the greatest risks of the current Lame Duck Congress is the possibility of Senate confirmation of Obama's radical appointments to federal courts, boards and agencies. Nominees hoping for confirmation include the radical redistributionist Goodwin Liu who is seeking a spot on the Ninth Circuit, Louis Butler Jr. who was removed from the Wisconsin Supreme Court by the voters in 2008, and Chai Feldblum, an advocate of same-sex marriage and polygamy who is now enjoying a recess appointment to the EEOC.

ZERO Carbon Emissions Produces Abject Poverty, Sabotages Hope

eagle@eagleforum.org — Thu, 09 Dec 2010 22:25:23 GMT

The industrialized world needs to realize that the radical environmentalists' demand for a ZERO carbon economy by 2050 is a cruel hoax being perpetrated upon the poor. Succumbing to the unproven theory that burning fossil fuels is warming the climate robs the poor of the hope to improve their lives. Instead of feeling guilty for enjoying their energy-produced modern lifestyles, developed nations should encourage the undeveloped world with the knowledge to produce their own energy.

U.N. Secretary General Calls for Fundamental Transformation of the Global Economy

eagle@eagleforum.org — Thu, 09 Dec 2010 01:26:36 GMT

Fundamental transformation &emdash; where have Americans heard that phrase before? In 2008, candidate Obama promised to "fundamentally transform" America which has resulted in skyrocketing debt and sustained joblessness. We surely do not want that on a global scale!

Profiting From the Global Taxing Scheme

eagle@eagleforum.org — Tue, 07 Dec 2010 16:38:44 GMT

One of the richest men in the world is so convinced of the imminence of global taxation for the new Climate Fund, that he has already devised a scheme to "eco-label" cargo ships that carry 85% of all goods worldwide, claiming it will align "economic and environmental interests crucial to facilitating needed capital flows."

DAY 7 OF COP16 in Cancún, Mexico

eagle@eagleforum.org — Mon, 06 Dec 2010 16:37:27 GMT

Negotiators from BASIC countries (Brazil, South Africa, India, and China) held an impromptu press conference Monday to set ground rules before thirty-five heads of state arrive at COP16. As the UN climate change conference begins it’s second week of meetings in Cancun, Mexico, President of COP16, Patricia Espinosa says she is receiving a “positive signal” all countries can reach a balanced package here, but BASIC countries are emphatic about items non-negotiable for them.

Week #1 at the U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change

eagle@eagleforum.org — Sat, 04 Dec 2010 06:15:34 GMT

Discussions the first week of the two-week UNFCCC COP 16 centered around a global taxing scheme and continuation of greenhouse gas commitments beyond the Kyoto Protocol's expiration in 2012. Japan fired the first shot across the U.N. bow announcing it "will not inscribe its target in a second commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol under any conditions or circumstances." As a result, it received the infamous "Fossil of the Day" recognition from Climate Action Network, a coalition of 500+ radical environmental organizations. Russia and Canada joined Japan, and others are rumored to be considering that option.

United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change in Cancún, Mexico

eagle@eagleforum.org — Fri, 03 Dec 2010 20:53:52 GMT

The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change UNFCCC is holding the 16th annual Conference of the Parties COP16 in Cancún, Mexico from November 29 - December 10, 2010 with 20,000 delegates, NGO's (green groups), business and media in attendance from 194 countries. The conference has nothing to do with climate change and everything to do with fraudulently funneling the wealth of the industrialized nations to poorer nations with UN oversight. No one expects any progress on commitments at COP16. They know they just have to keep the issue alive until the global economy changes — i.e. Durban, S. Africa, COP17 in 2011. Leaders are saying in order for there to be "life after Cancún," agreement from COP16 must be a "balanced, pragmatic package" with compromises so there's "something on the tree for everybody" (referring to a Christmas tree). The pragmatism and compromise is expected to come from the 62 industrialized nations not the 132 developing nations.

Dream Act: The nightmare that never ends

Eagle@eagleforum.org — Thu, 02 Dec 2010 23:23:03 GMT

This week, liberals in the House and Senate are working to repay their political allies during the lame duck session before they lose considerable power. We are told that the Dream Act, which will allow “back door” amnesty for potentially millions of illegal aliens, could come to the House floor for a vote next week. Harry Reid has also filed cloture on the Dream Act in the Senate, so it could come to the Senate floor very soon as well.

Global Taxation Being Discussed at the UNFCCC COP 16 in Cancun, Mexico

Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's (IPCC) Working Group III on Mitigation of Climate Change, reports Investors Business Daily.

United National Framework Convention on Climate Change

eagle@eagleforum.org — Tue, 30 Nov 2010 21:07:14 GMT

The Obama administration told attendees at the UNFCCC COP 16 conference that began on Monday in Cancún, Mexico, that they are "not backing away from their commitments." Last year in Copenhagen, President Obama committed to not only pass "cap & trade" legislation that would create billions in new taxes, he also joined developed nations in creating a new $30 billion "fast start" global climate fund by 2012 and committed to reduce greenhouse gases in the U.S. by 17% below 2005 levels by 2020. The $30 billion commitment is to grow into a $100 billion climate fund by 2020.

The attack on the institution of marriage is not only the biggest cultural but also the biggest fiscal issue of our times, and political and judicial attacks by gays are only part of the problem. Marriage is being assaulted by unilateral divorce, feminist hostility toward marriage, the bias of family courts against fathers, and the taxpayer-paid financial incentives that subsidize illegitimate births.

The usurpation of this power [to amend the Constitution] by Supreme Court Justices does not prove that the Constitution is a living instrument of government. On the contrary, it proves that the Constitution is dead, and that the people of our land are being ruled by the transitory personal notions of Justices who occupy for a fleeting moment of history seats on the Supreme Court bench rather than by the enduring precepts of the Constitution.

Obama Takes Illinois Mistakes Nationwide

"Unsustainable" is a scary word that recently entered political discourse, coming authoritatively from Congressional Budget Office (CBO) Director Douglas Elmendorf. Unsustainability is the operative moniker for Barack Obama's massive deficit spending, which Elmendorf said "cannot be solved through minor tinkering."

I urge all to find a copy on the internet (non-computer-capable oldtimers can look for an old world almanac on their bookshelves) and celebrate the holiday by reading the great Declaration.

Elena Kagan Should Be Rejected

Barack Obama revealed his goal for the Supreme Court when he complained on Chicago Radio Station WBEZ-FM in 2001 that the Earl Warren Court wasn't "radical" enough because "it didn't break free from the essential constraints placed by the Founding Fathers in the Constitution" in order to allow "redistribution of wealth." Now that Obama is President, he has the power to nominate Supreme Court justices who will "break free" from the Constitution and join him in "fundamentally transforming" America.

Obama Steers the Court Left, 5-14-10

eagle@eagleforum.org — Fri, 14 May 2010 15:51:10 GMT

Barack Obama has thumbed his nose at veterans and many other Americans by trying to replace Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens with the liberal Elena Kagan. She is mainly noteworthy for excluding military recruiters from Harvard Law School.

Why Tea Partiers Say Throw the Bums Out

eagle@eagleforum.org — Wed, 05 May 2010 21:17:03 GMT

Proof that the Tea Partiers and others are on target when they criticize both political parties was supplied by the behavior of the U.S. House on April 29. Demoting all major economic and corruption problems facing our country to the bottom of the agenda, the House devoted a long afternoon and 12 roll-call votes to passing a bill to force U.S. statehood on Puerto Rico.

Be Ready for Obama's Supreme Court Nominee!, 5-04-10

eagle@eagleforum.org — Tue, 04 May 2010 20:26:19 GMT

U. S. Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens, who just observed his ninetieth birthday (April 29), has announced his intention to retire from the Court at the end of the current Court term early this summer. A far left-wing member of SCOTUS, Stevens is sure to be replaced by a nominee of a far left-wing stripe. The only questions are whether the nominee will "out-liberal" Stevens and, if so, whether that nominee could survive the grueling examination he/she should be given by the Senate regarding his/her views and values.

Some Pay, and Some Receive

eagle@eagleforum.org — Fri, 23 Apr 2010 02:16:17 GMT

The news that the United States has become a two-class society, i.e., half of Americans pay federal income taxes and half don't, has bounced around the media and shocked Americans. Most people had no knowledge of this appalling economic fact.

America Becomes a Two-Class Society

eagle@eagleforum.org — Fri, 16 Apr 2010 15:27:03 GMT

Income tax day, April 15, 2010, now divides Americans into two almost equal classes: those who pay for the services provided by government and the freeloaders. The percentage of Americans who will pay no federal income taxes at all for 2009 has risen to 47 percent.

Suggestions that the United States call a new constitutional convention, as allowed in the Constitution's Article V, have popped up in some state legislatures and even on a page in the Wall Street Journal. No longer do these voices claim a convention can be limited to consideration of a single amendment (e.g., a Balanced Budget Amendment); grandstanding politicians are proposing a wide assortment of many amendments to produce big changes.

Obamacare Versus Freedom

eagle@eagleforum.org — Fri, 26 Mar 2010 15:48:15 GMT

Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi spent the weekend telling Democrats to hurry up and get the job done, i.e., end the legislative agony by passing Obamacare (even though polls show that a solid majority of the American people oppose it). Obama argued, "This is why I got into politics."

Obamanation Strikes the Courts — We Must Fight Back!!!

eagle@eagleforum.org — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 16:30:17 GMT

BREAKING NEWS: Senate Judiciary Committee Republicans today delayed Committee movement on the nomination of Goodwin Liu to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. The Committee has already sent to the Senate floor the nomination of Edward Chen to the U.S. District court for the Northern District of California (which is part of the Ninth Circuit). The Ninth Circuit's radical, out-of-line Reconstructionist decisions have earned it with some of us the label of the "Nasty Ninth." Liu and Chen (although not a Circuit Court appointee) (yet!), help drive the Ninth Circuit and its District Courts even farther to the left.

Texas Kicks Out Liberal Bias From Textbooks

eagle@eagleforum.org — Sun, 21 Mar 2010 17:39:00 GMT

"Don't Mess with Texas" is a popular slogan in our most prosperous state. By a 10-to-5 margin, the Texas State Board of Education (SBOE) just told liberals to stop "messing" with social studies textbooks. For years, liberals have imposed their revisionist history on our nation's public school students, expunging important facts and historic figures while loading the textbooks with liberal propaganda, distortions and cliches. It's easy to get a quick lesson in the virulent leftwing bias by checking the index and noting how textbooks treat President Ronald Reagan and Senator Joseph McCarthy.

Far more personal information on students than is necessary is being collected by public schools, according to the Fordham Law School Center on Law and Information Policy, which investigated education records in all 50 states.

Patent Reform Is A Patent Giveaway

eagle@eagleforum.org — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 18:37:50 GMT

Americans should beware when Members of Congress talk about "reform" and "comprehensive" because those words usually cover a lot of mischief. The latest example of this legerdemain is the so-called Patent Reform now aggressively pushed by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy (D-VT). Since we've outsourced millions of well-paying American jobs overseas, the one asset we have to maintain our American standard of living is innovation superiority. The United States is the world's leader in technology innovation, which is due to our private enterprise economic system, our constitutional protections of private property, and most especially our unique system of granting patents to inventors.

eagle@eagleforum.org — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 17:44:28 GMT

President Barack Obama's budget has added more than $100 billion of federal taxpayers' money to what is called "education," so that means it will be spent by alumni of the Saul Alinsky school of radical community organizing and/or the Chicago Democratic machine.

Two red-state Democrats also voted not to proceed toward a vote on President Obama's nomination of Becker to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB).

Obama Panders to the Feminists

eagle@eagleforum.org — Fri, 12 Feb 2010 15:48:08 GMT

Obama's "spread the wealth around" doesn't mean only higher taxes on taxpayers and more handouts to non-taxpayers; more especially, it means transfers of financial goodies to the President's political allies. The American people were rightfully outraged when it became known that Senators Mary Landrieu and Ben Nelson were rewarded for voting for Obamacare with hundreds of millions of dollars of benefits given uniquely to their states, Louisiana and Nebraska. Now we find that President Obama is paying off the feminists big-time for their support of his election.

The Real Loser In The Massachusetts Election

eagle@eagleforum.org — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 20:07:30 GMT

Smarting from their surprise loss in the race to fill the U.S. Senate seat in Massachusetts, the Democrats are throwing their candidate, Martha Coakley, under the bus. They blame her for running a poor campaign that made losers out of Barack Obama, the Democrats, their bad health care bill, and even Ted Kennedy in his grave.

Hidden in Obama's health care bill is a huge marriage penalty. Both the Senate and House bills would set up yet another federal program to provide financial incentives to subsidize marriage avoidance and illegitimate offspring.

The Causes of Unemployment

eagle@eagleforum.org — Sun, 10 Jan 2010 20:47:40 GMT

Much has been written about our current high unemployment, but there is a strange reluctance by both liberal and conservative commentators to assess blame for the dramatic loss of well-paying American jobs. The causes are not only the general recession and the collapse of the housing market, but bad decisions by government and business that deserve finger-pointing.

American Exceptionalism

eagle@eagleforum.org — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 16:55:57 GMT

The climate change conference being held from December 7-18, 2009 in Copenhagen, Denmark has very little to do with climate change and everything to do with the dismantling of America. There are three groups represented at the conference of the parties (COP15) — the rich countries, the poor countries and the most radical environmental groups. This is the largest United Nations conference ever conducted with 45,000 participants held in a facility built to accommodate 15,000. Negotiations are deadlocked as they have been all year. The poor want the rich to forfeit their money and technology as payment for climate debt and the rich want the poor to make emission reduction commitments while the radical environmentalists cheer for the poor. Although there are 190 countries represented, only two countries need to reach agreement and they are the US and China. The other countries will follow suit.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 19 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Last evening, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) unveiled his 2, 074-page health care bill, the Patient Protection and Affordable Health Care Act. Not only is less strict, less-than-Stupak abortion funding language contained in Reid's bill, but there is still nothing in place to remedy the problem that is the underlying mechanism for carrying out single-payer, government-run health care - the rationing of life-saving medical treatments and placing the most intimate health decisions of every American in the hands of Washington bureaucrats.

Good News about the 2009 Election

eagle@eagleforum.org — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 17:31:54 GMT

The November 3 elections proved that those obituaries, in the famous words of Mark Twain, were "greatly exaggerated."

Washington, D.C. — Eagle Forum, a conservative public policy organization founded by Phyllis Schlafly, encourages town hall meeting attendees to be more vocal about the deliberately-placed loopholes in both the House and Senate health care bills which will allow illegal immigrants to apply for and receive health insurance coverage. A number of Senators and congressmen, such as Sen. Arlen Specter (D-PA), Sen. Ben Cardin (D-PA), and Rep.

Family Court Injustices to Men

eagle@eagleforum.org — Thu, 23 Jul 2009 19:43:56 GMT

Did you know that a family court can order a man to reimburse the government for the welfare money, falsely labeled "child support," that was paid to the mother of a child to whom he is not related? Did you know that, if he doesn't pay, a judge can sentence him to debtor's prison without ever letting him have a jury trial?

Obama's Health Care Plan Can Be Defeated, 7-17-09

eagle@eagleforum.org — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 21:44:31 GMT

The Democrats' most recent answer to the question of how they will pay for their trillion-dollar health-care reform was just announced by Ways and Means Chairman Charles Rangel. He wants to impose a surtax on incomes over $280,000, which would be a staggering blow to small businesses that create most jobs.

President Obama has repeatedly expressed his concern about our rising unemployment. The worst loss of jobs is in manufacturing, because building autos has gone overseas, and in construction, because the housing industry has tanked.

Massachusetts: A Model Not to Copy

eagle@eagleforum.org — Fri, 03 Jul 2009 23:50:14 GMT

The Obama-Kennedy health plan is modeled after the Massachusetts plan which, when adopted, many applauded as innovative and destined for success. In fact, the Massachusetts plan has been a massive failure and is a model for what not to do.

Obama's Health Care Reform in Trouble

eagle@eagleforum.org — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 00:33:36 GMT

Barack Obama's high-speed train to Socialism was knocked off track by a surprising source: the Congressional Budget Office (CBO). Just as the Senate HELP Committee (Health, Education, Labor and Pensions) was about to begin voting on Chairman Ted Kennedy's (D-MA) health care plan (which Obama had let be known was his favorite), CBO released a report that this plan would cost at least a trillion dollars and still leave 36 million people uninsured through 2017.

Eagle Forum files amicus brief in U.S. Supreme Court defending state laws that protect children from violent video games

eagle@eagleforum.org — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 21:15:45 GMT

Eagle Forum Education & Legal Defense Fund filed an amicus brief before the U.S. Supreme Court to object to the latest form of judicial supremacy: federal courts striking down state laws that protect children from video games. The Ninth Circuit invalidated a good law that had been enacted in California to protect children against exploitation by the sale of extremely violent video games. These games are addictive, harmful, and highly destructive to many children who become hooked on them. California is not known to be conservative but these games were too much even for it. Yet the Ninth Circuit declared these shocking video games to be "free speech" even for children, without any limit on content or age. We urge the U.S. Supreme Court to grant cert. so that this good law may be reinstated.

High Costs of Obama's Health Care Plan

eagle@eagleforum.org — Fri, 12 Jun 2009 15:00:19 GMT

President Obama's drive for government health care began in earnest on Saturday, June 6 in thousands of neighborhood House Meetings where his supporters listened to his sales talk via a video on the internet and participated in a live conference call. Those who attended were given their orders to reach out to neighbors, knock on doors, and build a grassroots network to force Congress to pass the legislation "the same way we won the election, building support one block, one neighbor, one conversation at a time."

Obama Is Remaking America Into Socialism

eagle@eagleforum.org — Fri, 05 Jun 2009 14:17:01 GMT

The younger generation probably doesn't realize that the word Socialism means and connotes a system that is profoundly un-American. Socialism has virtually disappeared from our national lexicon since the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) collapsed because of Ronald Reagan's policies, and the National Socialist (Nazi) Party was destroyed by the U.S. in World War II.

Obama Makes His First U.S. Supreme Court Pick: From Souter to Sotomayor

Tue, 26 May 2009 20:32:17 GMT

Barack Obama has ended the well publicized speculation concerning the identity of his first Supreme Court nominee by naming to the critical High Court seat a well publicized contender — Sonia Sotomayor. Sotomayor has been tapped to take the seat of retiring Justice David Souter. Souter, a George H.W. Bush appointment, turned sour on the Court and has been a staunch Reconstructionist — an opponent of the Constitutionalist theory necessary if our Constitution and culture are to survive and thrive. What can we expect of Sotomayor? We offer a preliminary view below. For several years, Court Watch has identified and articulated the essential characteristics of a Constitutionalist judge. This description is presented below in "A Portrait of a Constitutionalist Judge." We follow this "yardstick" with "A Portrait of Judge Sotomayor."
