Ferdinand and Isabella sent Columbus on his voyage in 1492 after they liberated Spain from occupying Muslim forces. Spain’s policies then forced Jews to flee, first to Portugal, then to Amsterdam, where some sailed with Dutch merchants to South America. When Spain attacked there, they fled again and 23 refugees, on the French ship Sainte Catherine, became the first Jews to arrive in New Amsterdam in 1654. Governor Stuyvesant tried to evict them, not letting them worship outside their homes. In 1664, New Amsterdam became New York, where the first synagogue was built in 1730. Jewish population in colonial America grew to 2,000 in 7 synagogues from New York to Savannah. Beginning in 1830, Ellis Island had 250,000 Jews immigrate from persecution in Bavaria. Starting in 1881, over 2 million Jews fled Russia’s pogroms to America. By 2006, Jews comprised 2 percent of U.S. population. President Woodrow Wilson wrote: “Whereas in countries engaged … Continue Reading:American Minute January 27

At the beginning of yesterday’s hearing to determine the legal and Constitutional eligibility of Barack Hussein Obama for placement on the State of Georgia ballot in November, Judge Michael Malihi was said to have read “the last paragraph of [Obama] Attorney Michael Jablonski’s letter” to Georgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp. And in the barely 2 hour proceedings which reviewed 3 lawsuits demanding Obama not appear on that ballot, this might have been the most significant “statement” made by the otherwise reserved Malihi. (1)
Like Obama, Jablonski was a no-show in the Georgia courtroom, leaving Obama represented by no counsel at the proceeding.
And although the judge adjourned the hearing with no decision, no ruling, in fact nothing more than a “thank you” to the participants, the last paragraph of Jablonski’s letter states “We await your taking the requested action and as we do, we will, of course, suspend further participation … Continue Reading:Judge Malihi about to lower the boom on Barack?

In sports the most frustrating mistakes are unforced errors. Newt Gingrich is not the only candidate who makes unforced errors, although you would never know it from the media and the Republican establishment. Here’s a look at a few of Willard Romney’s unforced errors.
While trying to win favor with anti-Castro South Florida Cuban Americans Romney thought he would get the job done by saying, “’Patria o muerte, venceremos.” It means “Fatherland or death, we shall overcome.” Here’s what Fidel Castro had to say about the phrase, “Hugo Chavez has tried to steal an inspiring phrase — ‘Patria o muerte, venceremos.’ It does not belong to him. It belongs to a free Cuba.”
Gaffe? Maybe but Romney speaks Spanish. Was he just babbling or was this another flash of the progressive Romney hiding under his carefully crafted facade?
We’ve heard that Gingrich has said good things about Franklin Roosevelt. The video shows … Continue Reading:‘Patria o muerte, venceremos’ and other great thoughts from Willard Romney

Douglas MacArthur was born JANUARY 26, 1880. He commanded in World War I, was superintendent of West Point, and the youngest Chief of Staff of the U.S. Army. A four-star general, he retired in 1939, but returned in 1941 to defend the Philippines. When Japan invaded, President Roosevelt ordered him to Australia, but not before he promised “I shall return.” In 1944, he returned with an American army and freed the Philippines. Promoted to Supreme Commander of Allied Forces in the Southwest Pacific, he received Japan’s surrender on the USS Missouri in Tokyo Harbor. Promoted to five-star general, he was Supreme U.N. Commander during the Korean War until he became at odds with President Truman over wanting to confront the Communists. Truman made the unpopular decision to remove him. Douglas MacArthur told West Point cadets, May 1962: “The soldier, above all other men, is required to practice the greatest act of religious … Continue Reading:American Minute January 26

For 3 years, American gun owners have been told that the best thing to happen for the profitability of firearm manufacturers was the election of Barack Hussein Obama. And in spite of the sentiments of liberals like Detroit News columnist Bill Johnson, the best thing to happen in the City of Detroit might be the awakening of its law abiding residents to the fact that they are for all intents and purposes on their own in the battle against crime in the murder capital of the United States.
For nearly 40 years, Detroit has led the nation in murder rate. And 2011 was no exception as the murder rate increased by some 12%–to 344–from the preceding, record breaking year.
But one thing has changed for the better in the shrinking, bankrupt city—justifiable homicides increased by 80% over their 2010 rate. Thirty four criminals were sent to their just rewards last year … Continue Reading:Armed citizens fight back in murder capital of Detroit
