School pulls patriotic song at graduation, but Justin Bieber's 'Baby' is OK

A controversial Coney Island principal has pulled the plug on patriotism.

Her refusal to let students sing “God Bless the USA” at their graduation has  sparked fireworks at a school filled with proud immigrants.

Greta Hawkins, principal of PS 90, the Edna Cohen School, won’t allow  kindergartners to belt out the beloved Lee Greenwood ballad, also known as “Proud to be an American,” at their moving-up ceremony.

Five classes spent months learning the patriotic song, which…

The L.O.S.T. vote is postponed until after the election, how convenient, but here is a Malkin piece with history.

What's green and blue and grabby all over? President Obama's new pressure campaign for Congress to ratify the Law of the Sea Treaty (LOST).

The fight over LOST goes back three decades, when it was first rejected by President Ronald Reagan. He warned that "no national interest of the United States could justify handing sovereign control of two-thirds of the Earth's surface over to the Third World." According to top Reagan officials William Clark and Ed Meese, their boss believed the…

Religious Liberties and the Bill of Rights - GEORGE WASHINGTON

George Washington and his Letter to the Jews of Newport

The original of Washington’s Letter to the Hebrew Congregations of Newport, Rhode Island is small in size, but its impact on American life is immense. In 340 well-chosen words, the Letter reassures those who had fled religious tyranny that life in their new nation would be different, that religious “toleration” would give way to religious liberty, and that the government would not interfere with individuals in…

OATH OF OFFICE - A LITTLE INFO

The Constitution contains an oath of office only for the president. For other government officials, including members of Congress, the document specifies only that they "shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation to support the Constitution."



The First Congress, in 1789, reworked this requirement into a simple fourteen-word oath: "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support the Constitution of the United States."



At the beginning of the Civil War, Congress expanded the…

WILL THE TEA PARTY RESCUE THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AGAIN? - GOOD REASON TO NOT CO-OPT WITH REPUBLICANS

“Charles Darwin’s survival of the fittest theory best describes the political evolution of the Republican Party during the 2010 mid-terms, since some party leaders who vehemently opposed the Constitutionalist candidates, like some extinct species, were just too stupid to evolve. The leadership that fails to nurture this metamorphosis from crawling caterpillar to winged butterfly will go the way of the Whig Party and the Dodo bird.” ~ Anthony Mele

RYAN NICHOLS - Hardened Criminal?? Seriously??

If you're not already aware. This is what's going on in DC while dangerous criminals are allowed back out on the streets.  It's horrifying that this is happening to our citizens and veterans for protesting the hijacking of our election process. This is still happening! They are STILL being tortured and treated like full on terrorists.
