RENEWAMERICA — Liberty Tree Alliance, a nonprofit educational organization of Dr. Alan Keyes, has released a new e-booklet, How the Claim to 'Homosexual Rights' Destroys the Logic of Liberty, in an effort to challenge the growing myth that same-sex marriage poses no substantial threat to the existence of God-ordained natural marriage...

ALAN KEYES — What purports to be a movement for so-called homosexual "rights" is in fact intended to discard, once and for all, the idea of God-endowed unalienable rights, inherent in the Creator's information of all human beings (i.e., our human nature). The transcendent authority of "the laws of nature and of nature's God" is the source or origin from which certain natural penchants or inclinations derive their special claim of right... (more)

BREITBART — Establishment Republicans desperately trying to secure the passage of Trade Promotion Authority (TPA), which would give President Obama fast-track authority to secure congressional approval of at least three secretive trade deals, are now willing to increase taxes on small businesses in a way that would violate a pledge almost every Republican Congressman has taken when elected into office....

CLIFF KINCAID — President Obama and his administration apparently haven't had enough time -- though it's been more than a year -- to develop a strategy to combat the anti-American terrorist group known as the Islamic State.

WASHINGTON EXAMINER — For a president trying to nail down his legacy, this week couldn't have gone worse, or been more embarrassing for Barack Obama. Starting with a weak response to the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria terror gripping the Middle East and ending with the disaster on his trade deal, it was one the president would likely want to forget....

WASHINGTON TIMES — The Clinton administration had bankrupted the intelligence community and refused to let the CIA prioritize anti-terrorism over other major priorities in the late 1990s, leaving the agency stretched too thin in the days ahead of the 2001 terrorist attacks, former Director George J. Tenet said in a 2005 document declassified Friday.... (more)

WASHINGTON TIMES — Coal will face a rocky future if President Obama has his way. The black stuff that has powered the world for eons is not "green," and that is all that matters for the "progressive" masterminds of the 21st century. They favor more ethereal forms of energy from Mother Nature's bounty like the sunshine and breezes that accompany a perfect day... (more)

ANDREW C. MCCARTHY — The headline blared, "Ex-Official Says Chris Christie Broke Grand Jury Law."

MICHELLE MALKIN — Constitutional conservatives don't like it. Trade unions abhor it. Obama critics hate it. Environmentalists despise it. Outside the Beltway bubble, a broad coalition of voters from the left, right and center opposes the mega-trade deal getting rammed through Congress this week by the Republican establishment on behalf of the White House. Here's why.... (more)

June 12, 2015
WESLEY PRUDEN — The civility chorus may at last be getting what it wants, a shutdown of debate in the name of piety and good manners.
