The Presidency Egyptians can thank Obama for martial law - Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi, by issuing a decree this week that allows the military to arrest civilians, has in effect placed that nation under martial law. Morsi will rule by decree as a dictator, he says, only until the vote on a new constitution is held. Then, of course, the new constitution will give him nearly dictatorial power. In September, 2011 at the United Nations, President Barack Obama praised the Arab Spring: "One year ago, Egypt had known one president for nearly 30 years," Obama said. "But for 18 days, the eyes of the world were glued to Tahrir Square, where Egyptians from all walks of life - men and women, young and old, Muslim and Christian - demanded their universal rights." In reality, as sharia law arrives, Christians and women will lose all of the rights they had under the government Obama helped to overthrow.
Obama sends more F-16's to Egypt - On January 13, 2013 the United States will send four of an ordered twenty new advanced F-16 fighters to Egypt. These will be added to the existing 200 that Egypt already has. Said House Committee on Foreign Affairs chairman, Congresswoman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen of Florida, "The Obama administration wants to simply throw money at an Egyptian government that the president cannot even clearly state is an ally of the United States." There is growing fear in Israel of the weapons being handed over to Egypt by the United States. Malou Innocent, a foreign policy analyst at the Cato Institute said, "Should an overreaction [by Egypt] spiral into a broader conflict between Egypt and Israel, such a scenario would put U.S. officials in an embarrassing position of having supplied massive amounts of military hardware to both belligerents."
Obama: "Unions built Detroit" - Detroit has lost more than half its population over the last few decades. Virtually all industry has departed the city and the state of Michigan -- except for government supported auto makers. Unions and their arcane rules destroyed the industrial base of Michigan by refusing to allow industries to modernize. The current Republican governor wants to attract manufacturing back to the state with Right-to-Work legislation that would end forced union membership. Obama disagrees saying, "You only have to look to Michigan where workers were instrumental in reviving the auto industry to see how unions have helped build not just a stronger middle class but a stronger America." A psychiatrist would refer to this as "magic thought or "delusional thinking."
Congress
Senator blasts UN on Human Rights - Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) on Monday spoke out against human slavery and in support of religious liberty around the world. Monday was International Human Rights Day, which was created by the U.N. Declaration on Human Rights in 1948. The U.N., which is run by totalitarians and human rights abusers, seldom lives up to its own declarations. It is refreshing to see Sen. Marco Rubio sincerely denounce human slavery, the persecution of women and the violation of religious liberty around the globe. Read more

FEMA says no to churches and synagogues - In the wake of Hurricane Sandy, many New York churches and synagogues have discovered that they are ineligible for financial assistance from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). FEMA grants are available to a variety of nonprofit organizations; however, houses of worship are not included on the list. Ironically, many of the churches and synagogues of New York provided shelter for those forced from their homes during the storm.

Most Egyptians do not want freedom of speech - About 70 per cent of the Egyptian population will vote in favor of the constitution drafted by Islamists. This overwhelming support for the draft constitution was registered despite the fact that as my colleague Andrew McCarthy re-affirmed on12/8/12, the charter effectively, "denies freedom of conscience," and "denies freedom of expression."
