Following a Supreme Court ruling that said that federal restrictions on certain states’ voting laws were invalid, North Carolina passed a law requiring that people who wish to cast a ballot must show photo identification. Predictably, the left-leaning media have gone into high outrage mode. In doing so they’ve ignored the facts which show that not only do black voters support voter ID more…

Want to know just how much or how little influence the LGBT community is having on the films you see or don't see?

In a video featuring Duck Dynasty's Phil Robertson, the TV star - in what appears to be a religious sermon - declares his pro-life stance on the issue of abortion.  When discussing the ethics of, and that there's even a debate on, the issue, he asks, "What in the world happened to us?" "Listen, from the time you started inside your mother's womb, Thomas Jefferson had it right, you have the…

Following major electoral defeats, it has become a bit of a tradition for people on the losing side to try and figure out what went wrong and how to return back to political favor.
